in Panama Exposition

ROME, Jan. 5.-King Victor EN-
manuel showed the deepest interest in
the project in the Panama Pacific Ex-
position at San Francisco when it was
explained to him by Ira Nelson Nor
ris, of Chicago. Mr.. Morris said to-
day:
what most particularly impressed
me during my audience with his ma
iesty was the unusual interest in and
the knowledge of American affairs
and conditions displayed by his ma
jesty. The king evinced great solicit
tude for the progress of Italians in
the United States and appeared to
think that the presence of so many
of his subjects there brought about
very close connection between the
two nations which he said have
naturally so much In common.
when I left his majesty he ex.
pressed the hope that my conference:
with the italian ministers would have
result satisfactory to all concerned

WOODBURY., Jan 5.-Charles A.
Hilyard, former collector of West
Depford Township, who was placed
under heavy bail Saturday charged
with being a defaulter to the extent
of probably $4,000, declares that he
has no knowledge of any shortage
and that investigation will show
there is none.
The members of the township COM
mittee, Joseph Moore, Morris Plum

the formal charge against the former
official insist that his accounts show
a shortage of at least $4,000, and the
total may go to more than $4,000
This, it is feared. will have to be
made good by the taxpayers of the
township because Hilyard's bond had
not been renewed.
