JENNINGS TRIAL IN
BANK LOOT|NG NEAR
Former Teller of RoseviIIe Trust
May Enter Pleas of Non
VuIt. 49,.

Whether A Randolph Jennings, for
mer teller at the wrecked Roseville
Trust Company, will follow the lead
of Raymond E. Smith, former treas
urer of the institution, and plead non
vult to the minor indictments against
him is still an open question.
Jennings is scheduled to be placed
on trial tomorrow morning before
Judge Harry V. Osborne on dozen
indictments charging him with over
certification of checks and the making
Of false entries in the bank books.
John DeGraw, his counsel. today said
he did not know whether Jennings
would plead non vult or staad trial.
Mr.. DeGraw admitted TIM several
conferences looking toward the ac-
ceptanee of a non Vult plea by the
court had been held with Prosecutor
Louis Hood, but said nothing definite
had been determined upon.
Mr.. Hood was likewise commit
tai when asked whether plea of non
vult would be accepted from Jennings
or not. You will have to wait until
tomorrow TO find that out" he said.
~ really do not know whether Jen-
nings will plead non-vult or not"
On Judge Harry V. Osborne's cal
endar today remained one case
against Raymond Il. Smith to which
he did not plead on Saturday, when
he entered non-vult pleas to twenty
five indictments against him. This
indictment charged forgery and ut
tering, the charge growing out of a
deal in November. 1911, when Smith
is alleged to have forged the name of
Mrs ALMA M. Mott to check for
$4,000 and used the money himself
On motion of Assistant Prosecutor
Andrew Van Blarcom this case was
set for trial on May 4, before Chief
Justice William S. Gummere. At that
time the chief justice will also take
up the trial of the first of the con-
spiracy indictments in which Smith,
Jennings and William ]. Thompson,
bank employees, and a number of
former depositors in the bank are
mixed up.

teemen are Chief Day and Chief Jack

About fifty chiefs attended the busi-
ness session this morning In the rooms

sion the firemen were entertained at

AT 2 o'clock Chief Day called out
the local department and showed the
visitors the apparatus of the first fire
department In New Jersey to be com
pletely motorized. The company fore
men and other members were on hand
to explain the points of their respec-
tive equipment. After looking over
the apparatus and enjoying rides on
some of the cars the fremen sep
arated, some visiting Washington s
headquarters, some the State insane

questions to answer about his com
pany's equipment. 1t is shown in the
picture behind the chemical engine
1t includes a combination hose wagon
and tractor, White, to which is at
tached by a patent spring pole the
