JUDGE NEWMAN
GRANTS AN ORDER
REQUEST FOR POSTPONEMENT
MADE BY ATTORNEYS FOR
RECEIVERS.
CASE IS MORE COMPLICATED
No Further Action Expected Until
y aeMay 10, When Petition of Trustee
For Assets to be Turned Over to
4 Him Will Come up in Savannah.

The sale Of the Yaryan plant in this
city, which was cheduled and adver-
tlsed to occur today, has been post
poned by agreement Of all parties un-
til the first Tuesday i'll June. This
came about in Atlanta yesterday be-
fore Judge N~wman on the request of
attorneys representing the receivers.
A new turn in the .Yaryan situation
came rather Unexpectedly en- Sunday,
when Judge Boiling Whitfield, attor-
hey for the Toledo creditors, served
notice upon Bennet, Twitty Il Reese
and Judge Max Isaac, attorney for the
receivers, that an injunction to stop
the sale would be asked OF Judge
Newman CT the United States court of
the northern district in Atlanta yes
terday. The fact that Judge Shep-
pard was in Pensacola and Judge New
man being the nearest judge of c.
matter being transferred in this n
stance to the northern district.
The injunction was to have been
heard by Judge Newman in Atlanta
yesterday, F. e. Twitty and Max Isaac
appearing for the receivers, and Judge
Boiling Whitfield, of this city, and
Clarence Brown of Toledo, represent
ing the trustee, but the request of the
receivers made this step unnecessary.
A telegram received from Mr.. Twit-
ty yesterday afternoon by Commits
sioner R. R. Hopkins announced that
consent agreement had been reach
ed whereby the sale is postponed I'M
til the first Tuesday in June.
Effect of Postponement.
1t is apparent that matters took this
turn in the case in a desperate effort
On the part of the Toledo people to
obviate the necessity of putting up the
$125,0OO supercedeas bond which was
made mandatory by Judge Sheppard
and which all along has been a thorn
in the side Of the Toledo contingency
While information is lacking on the
subject, it is believed by Brunswick
lawyers and others that the effect OF
Judge Newman's order of postpone
ment will not serve to stay the order
of Judge Sheppard and that eventual
ly this supercedeas bond will have tc
be given or the sale will take place
after being advertised, on the first
Tuesday in June.
1t is well known fact that within
the last week or ten days some strong
efforts have been made to bring some
sort of harmony out of the present
chaotic condition and it is believed
that during this additional sixty days
some success may be achieved along
that line. In any event, the receiv
ers are still in possession of the pro
perty, although the situation is now
assuming a most complex form
The Brunswick attorneys who were
in Atlanta yesterday, and others who
attended the hearing, will return tt
the city this morning.
There will be no further moves il
the case until May 8th when the peti
ton of j. C. Blair, named trustee il
bankruptcy by Judge Killets of Tole
do, that the assets of the company
be turned over to him will be heart
in Savannah.

GERMAN LOSS AT
ANTWERP Is HEAVY

Paris.-The Germans lost $1,000
men in the capture Of Antwerp, &C
cording to Paul Eric, special CORE
spondent Of the Journal, who writes:
THE heroic Belgian defense of forts
Waelhem, Wavre and Lierre, forming
the outer ring, cost the Germans very
dear. General Won Beseler threw COM
pact masses of troops into the inter
walls, where the Belgians poured a
whitening infantry fire on the assail-
ants.
South of the third line of defenses
German bodies are now piled in heaps.
This happened at the beginning Of the
assault. South of Fort Bornheim the
Belgians inferred 5000 German
corpses.
When Won Beseler managed to
cross the Nethe and install 16h-inch
guns on the north banks, shells fell
in Antwerp like ~hailstones. Most of
the remaining population then retired
to cellars with food, placing mat
tresses and sacks filled with earth
against the doors and window graf
ings.
las soon as Antwerp was occupied
the Germans began to fortify it. If
given a little time they will, with the
help of their heavy artillery, make 1t
practically impregnable."

"white sIaver's" Long Term.

A sentence of one year and six
months at had labor in New Jersey
State prison was meted to Joseph Bar
anawski, of Newark by Judge Hunt
in the United States District Court.
Baranowski was found guilty by a
jury for violating the Mann act. 1t
was alleged that he transported a
young woman from Newark to Phila-
delphia, where he drugged her and
stole $500 Of her money.
District Attorney Davis announced
In court that counsel for Harry Karl
helm, of Atlantic City, who was con-
victed for violating the Mann act,
would make a motion for a new trial
for his client. Karlheim's counsel
could not be present in court, and the
question of sentencing Karlheim was
laid i've until his counsel could make
application for a new trial.
Pending an appeal, Judge Hunt or
dered that Ling Linn, a Chinaman, of
Camden, be placed under $1,000 bail.
A short time ago United States Com
missioner Joline ordered that the
Chinaman be deported upon the
ground that he was improperly labor
ing in this country. His counsel flied
an appeal from Judge Joline's order.

enemy had managed to get with a
hundred yards of our position.
Il was mad with excitement, and

fighting for all l was worth. All of a

WARNS TRENTON OF TYPHOID.
State Board of Health Suggests City
Take Stringent Measures to
Prevent Epidemic.

The State Board Of Health IN a com
m%unication to Commissioner Fell in
formed him of reports of outbreaks
of typhoid fever among students of
Lehigh University and suggesting
that every care be taken to prevent
an outbreak of the disease here by
the proper treatment Of the city wa
ter supply.
The communication states that It
is very probable that some of the
towns close to the university are
contributing typhoid-laden sewage in
to the Lehigh River, which empties
into the Delaware.
Commissioner Fell says that at all
times the water supply of the city is
being treated along the lines g
ed, but he will bring the matter to
the attention Of the City Commission
this afternoon.
The ordinance providing for the ex-
tension of Furman street to Broad
street will also be acted upon. Some
of the property owners along the
street object to the extension, while
others favor it.

DEFEND UNTIL FIRE
BECOMES MASSACRE
By F, BANISTER.

International News Service.
Ostend.-I was right up on the firing
line near Lokeren when the Belgians
were ordered to retreat from the
trenches and was carried along in the
frantic rush for shelter beyond the
range of German shells. Infantrymen,
jaded, heavily weighted by accouter-
ments, stumbled across the fields, sweat
pouring from their faces, and sank, ex-
hausted, to lie for a few moments and
then scramble to their feet and stag
ger forward again as shells continued
bursting around them.
They fought b~ravely and well. The
trenches were not vacated anywhere
till the rain of German shells meant
sheer massacre if the defenders re-
NAMED.
p, In the retreat of the field army
which had been defending Antwerp,
along the one road still kept open to
the west, we're many soldiers who had
been fighting continually IA days,
snatching hurried sleep on the bare
earth or pavement. Hundreds col
lapsed on the march and had to be
left behind at various points, to fol
low on after treatment and rest. The
Germans have not yet reached Ostend.
Horse meat has been substituted for
beef at most of the hotels and restau-
rants. Otherwise there is no lack of
food at normal prices.
Every day, spies are arrested in and
lear Ostend. One man was seized
after chalking in a corner of the vii
lage railway station some figures the
interpreters supposed indicated the
strength of the allies in the neighbor-
hood. He was dressed as a simple
peasant and showed evidence of be-
ing a man of superior education, which,
with the discriminating memoranda and
the chalk marks at the station, sealed
his doom.
A German officer was arrested in the
main street of Ostend yesterday wear
ing a Belgian officers uniform. He
was nearly torn to pieces by the huge
crowd before he got to the police sta

FAVORS GERMAN
TRAFFIC RULES
inform Legislation Discussed
by State Commission
MAYORS EXPRESS VIEWS
Law is that Right of Way at lntersec-
ton of Streets or Highways is
Accorded to Vehicle Approach
ing From Drivers Right.

Especial Trenton Correspondence
Trenton.-Needed changes in State
and municipal laws regulating street
and road traffic were discussed here
at a conference of the State Commits
sion to investigate traffic laws and
ordinances with mayors and other rep
resentatives of cities and towns
throughout the State. The conference
was called by the State Commission,
composed of State Motor Vehicle Com
missioner Lippincott, George B. La
barre and A. V. Hamburg, president of
the Board of Trade of Newark.
There was a general opinion that
there should be a State law govern
ing automobile traffic at street inter
sections, and it was suggested that
the Newark regulation be made gen.
eral throughout the State. This reg
ulation is that all vehicles approach
ing street intersections must give
right of way to vehicles approaching
from the right. 1t is likely that a
definite point of law on this point will
be recommended.
Introduction of the German system
Of traffic regulations, in SO far as it
relates to the right of way at street
intersections, was suggested by City
Engineer Morris R. Sherrerd, OF
Newark. The universal law in Ger
many is that the right of way at the
intersection of streets or highways is
accorded the vehicle approaching,from
the drivers right. This being a uni
form regulation, recognized in al
parts of Germany, Nh. Sherrerd said,
confusion is avoided at street ~intersec-
tions such as is frequently encounter
ed where there is no such uniform
rule.
The suggestion of Mr.. Sherrerd was
received with general approval, most
of the officials present agreeing thai
it would be workable in this State.
Mr.. Lippincott suggested that q
method be formulated for providing
special instructions to all traffic of
fcers in the State. 1t was agreed
that this would be desirable in the
event of uniform traffic laws being put
in force, although it was regarded as
scarcely feasible under present condi
tons.

DENTIST HAD WASTED TIME
Really Was No Use Waiting for Pa
tient to Close Eye, Seeing Its
Composition.

He was a nervous man, says the
Philadelphia Record. Most men are
when they find themselves in a dem
lists chair, but he was exceptionally
SO. The tooth that had to come out
was quite a small affair-from the
dentists point of view. From the pa
tents it felt about the same size as
a house.
He decided to have gas. The dem
fist, who was in a hurry to go to a
baseball game, tried to persuade him
to do without, but he was determined.
The dentist, in a fever of impa-
thence, waited for the victim to lose
consciousness, but the nervous nan
insisted on keeping an eye open,
though he had enough gas to float an
airship.
Unable to control himself any long
er, the irate t~ooth-puller exclaimed:
Let go yourself, man! Shut your
eye, you idiot"
Somewhere from the back-blocks of
dreamland the patient murmured
%speepily:
"Can't-it'S glasSi"
