ing that bona-fi de detective never
does anything like that, the proprietor
telephoned for the police.

but told the court today that no lived
in New York He had in his possess
sion a badge with Deputy Sheriff,
Passaic County," on it. He said It

the same token has acquired de-
cided liking for the Evening Star
This new arrival is Mrs. Joseph c.
Moore. of POS South Tenth street.
Mrs. Moore will tell any one who
may take the trouble to ask that it
isn't necessary for a person or a
package TO get lost in Newark, and

TWO CHOOSE XMAS
ON WHICH TO DIE
One Brooded Over Death of
Wife and Other Over
Ill-Health.

Two men chose Christmas Day, the
most joyful holiday of the year, on
which to kill themselves.
Thomas Waldeck, forty eight years
old, took two and half ounces Of
formaldehyde in his room at $40 Nor
ris avenue, in a fit of dependency.
His wife died three months ago and
he could not bear the thought of
Christmas without her. After swal-
lowing the poison he repented, but 1t
was too late to save his life.
John d. Paterson, fifty years old,
of 1874 South Ninth street. was the
other suicide. He killed himself with
gas. 1t was said that he had been
brooding oyer his ill health and the
loss of his position as engineer at
the George W. Wiedenmayer Brew
cry.
He was to have had his Christmas
dinner with Mrs. Eugene Buttner,
with whom he boarded, a the home
of a mutual friend. Mrs. Dattner left
the house in the afternoon, expecting
Paterson to follow about 6 O'Clock.
When he did not appear, she returned
home to find out what had happened.
She found him dead in his gas-filled
bedroom.
Paterson IS said to have separated
from his wife ten years ago. He was
employed as an engineer at the brew
cry until five months ago when his
health failed him. He could not OBJ
tain another position.
1t was loneliness that caused Wal
deck to take his life. For many years
he had been employed as barber in
this city. His home life was happy
until few months ago, when his wife
was taken sick. Three months ago
she underwent an operation and
failed to recover After her death
Waldeck seemed respondent. He gave
up his home and rented a room in the
he he of Mrs. Lena Buckow, an old
friend, at the Morris avenue address.
v lldeck started to work yesterday
morning at a position he had taken
but two days ago, and during the
afternoon he acted in a peculiar man
ner, and left the shop without saying
where he was going. While out he
purchased the formaldehyde and, re-
turning to his room, he drank it.
When Mrs. Buckow and the other
roomers who had responded to his
call for help learned he had taken
poison the City Hospital ambulance
was Immediately called. Hot milk was
administered as an antidote. Waldeck
died three hours after he had been
taken to the c~Ditai.

proposed reorganization of the looted
Roseville Trust Company, Michael
Kane, jr., and other minority de-
positors will file a protestants' mem
orandum with the Court of Chancery.
Mr.. Kane had the petition drawn up
today.
The state department of banking,
through La Rue Vredenburgh, special
deputy commissioner, has already
obtained from Chancellor Walker o.
rule to show cause why the reor-
ganization should not be approved.
The order is returnable at Trenton
on December 80 and will be argued
then.
The petition of the protesting de-
positors is as follows:
Tn Chancery of New Jersey. In the
matter of the Roseville Trust Com
pany in charge of the commissioner
Of banking and insurance under tho
provisions Of Chapter III, Of the laws
of 1918. Order to show cause on PEE
tition of receiver praying directions
as to sale. Memorandum of protest
ants.
1.-THE undersigned, having been de-
positors of the Roseville Trust Com
pany, and now having claims against
said trust company to the extent Of
their deposits, hereby protest against
and object to the sale OF the prop
erty and assets of the Roseville Trust
Company to the Mutual Bank, of
Roseville, on the following grounds,
to wit
Il. That they should receive one
hundred cents on the dollar
20 That the proceedings are irreg-
ular.
''S. That the consideration for said
sale is entirely inadequate.
"a. That before the sale should be
made all the claims, demands, etc,
held by the Roseville Trust Company
against any party or parties, firm or
firms, corporation or corporations,
ETC., should be reduced to Judgment
and judgment pushed to execution so
that there would be more cash on
hand. thereby giving the depositors
more than forty cents on the dollar.
IS. That the banking department of
the State of New Jersey has been off
setting notes of some depositors
against their accounts, dollar for dol
lar, thereby discriminating against
the depositors who have no notes in
the trust company, and that if there
is such a statute in New Jersey al
lowing such a practise it is unconsti-
tutional.
IS. That the banking department
has allowed the Mutual Bank of
Roseville to accept as part of their
capital money that certain directors
had in said trust company at the
time it failed under proviso that in
so doing they would be released from
any civil suit that might otherwise
be brought
~. That the undersigned object to
the whole proceeding, and If your
honor should rule against them that
they be allowed an exception to your
honor's ruling.
Your petitioners pray that they
may be granted the relief above SET
forth and any further relief that may
be just. And your petitioners will
ever pray etc"
Mr.. Kane said today that any de-
positors who have not signed the re-
organization agreement can sign the
protestants memorandum at his
home, 81 South Thirteenth street, If
they wish to.

double lines of depositors extending
out into the streets for half a block.
Payment on checks was restricted,
as on previous days, to 200 pesos, ex-
capt for payrolls and other urgent
requirements.
preside, Tex, Dec. 26.--Although
the Mexican federal army at Ojinaga,
across the border from here, had pre-
pared for defense against the advance
of the rebels under General Ortega,
the outpost today reported that no
rebels were in sight. 1t was thought
that three or four days might elapse
before the arrivals of the rebels, who
are marching from Chihuahua.
The federals believe they will be
able to fight off an actual invasion of
Ojinaga and that the worst they may
suffer is a prolonged siege. The fed
erals will have the advantage of pro-
curing foodstuffs.
