HIRING SYSTEM
At PLAYGROUND
UNDER ATTACK
Civil Service Commission De-
cIares Ineligible Persons Are
Now Employed.

AS the result of Investigation on
the part of the Civil Service Commits
sion differences between that body
and the Newark Playground Com
mission have cropped out 1t is de-
elared that the playground author
tiles have a number of persons in
their employ who have not passed the
required civil service examinations.
There is a waiting list for positions
with the playground commission, but
IL appears that the eligibles have
been overlooked.
The playground commission held a
meeting yesterday afternoon. 1t was
scheduled for today, but was sud
denly changed. 1t was learned that
the resignation Of Commissioner w.
Frank Hopping had been sent direct
to Mayor Haussling, ignoring the
other members of the board. The
elimination of Mr.. Hopping, 1t is said,
has given other members of the board
free hand in the transaction of
the general business of this DEPART
ment. It was announced that Presi-
dent Nicholas La Vecchia had ap-
pointed Commissioner Charles A.
MacCall as chairman of the purehas-
ing committee in place of Mr. Hop
ping.
Secretary J. Leonard Mason, who
had been trying of late to have adj
ditional instructors named, fled a re-
port with the commission. He stated
that he now did not care to recon-
mend additions to his staff In his
report Mr.. Mason also stated that the
staff at the present time is not as
as he would like to have it.
The report of Mr.. Mason seems to
be in direct contradiction to his form
er report, He now claims that there
Is not sufficient funds for additional
instructors and adds that all the nee
essary positions are now filed.
1t was decided that the annual out
ing for the children to Coney Island
will be held by boat next Friday. 1t
is expected that about 1,500 children
will make the trip.
From present indications and de-
spite cool weather, the record for at
tendance at the city's baths has been
broken this season.

WITH $500 CASH
MOTHER DESERTS
YOUNG CHILDREN
Philip Biener, UphoIsterer, Fac
ing Dispossess. Tells Pit
iful Tale.

After years Of work and saving,
Philip Biener, an upholsterer. of 229
Bank street, found himself penni-
less today, with FIVE small children
depending on him for food and with
a disposses warrant hanging over his
head His wife, Annie, disappeared
Saturday, taking with her all the
money in the house, about $500, and
the money she had been secretly de-
posting in a bank.
Biener told his story to Probation
officer John j. Gascoyne today.
While he had not much hope of ap-
pretending his wife with the money,
Bierner hoped to ward off the dis
possess proceedings until he could
get a little money to buy material
to complete the work he has in his
shop. Mr.. Gascoyne promised to
help him.
Biener had not been able to get
along very we'll with his wife, he told
Mr.. Gascoyne. For the sake of the
children, he said, he did as she
wanted him to, gave her all the
money he took in, and let her keep
the house and buy his clothes. As
long as the children were cared for
he was content. Often she threatened
to leave him and the children, but he
paid no attention to her threats, he
said.
Saturday, before noon, l was
working in my shop, My wife was
in the rear, l supposed, preparing
dinner. At noon hour the children
came and told me that their mother
was not in, that she had gone out the
back way, all dressed up. / expected
her back, but I have not heard from
her since. All the money had, about
$3.50, and about $3.50 that was due me
and that she collected, she took with
her.
1.-THE landlord has given me notice
that / must appear in the First Dis
trict Court on July Is in dispossess
proceedings for not paying the rent, -
continued Biener I'm nearly crazy
The children are hungry and so am I,
but I've only got sixty cents and that
would not last long"
Biener said he had work to do in
his shop, but he had no money to buy
material to do it with. His wife had
taken everything in the shape OF
money or valuables.
Mrs Biener has a sister in Buenos
Ayres, South America, and she had
often spoken of going there, her hus-
band said. She had also a cousin in
California that she might have gone
to, he declared.
The Oldest of Biener's five children
is Jennie, seventeen years old. She
was working, but he has had to take
her away from it to act the little
mother" TO the rest of the children,
who are twelve. ten, seven and five
years old.

made yesterday into the life of Ell
wood T. Bardes, whose testimony at
the inquest In Freeport Wednesday
was followed by the arrest of Mrs.
Carman on the charge of having
murdered Mrs. Louise Bailey, showed
that Bardes, who is living apart from

members of his wife's family do not
place as much credence in his story
as have the Nassau county authori-
ties
Bardes formerly lived in Long ISL
and City. There, in September, 1912,
he married Miss Sadie Moran, Of 10
Pierson street. James d. Moran, a
brother of Mrs. Bardes, said last

Bardes formed the Bardes- Moran
Roofing Company, with offices at 401
Broadway, Long Island City. Moran
said he put $4,000 into the business
and that Bardes had charge of the
books.
Last February" said Moran, 1T
found that, although the books
seemed to show we were doing a
good business, we were doing little
or none. l withdrew from the firm.
Bardes and my sister parted in
March. She went to live with hei
mother. She had a letter from her
husband three weeks ago. saying he
was in the contracting business in
Freeport. ~
when he and I quit business he
became collector for an Industrial
insurance company. His mother lives
at $50 Rodney street, Brooklyn, and ]
understand he has a brother in the
employ of the American Wooden Com
pany. He is a good talker"
Mrs. Bardes was too ill to be inter-
viewed yesterday, but members of her
family said they were of the opinion
that, in giving the testimony against
Mrs. Carman, Bardes was laborine
under a mistake

URGING REID
TO ENTER RACE

candidate on being allowed a more
or less free rein in the matter of
political speech making. He will not
be a candidate under curb or con-
trolled by the bit, they say, as he
feels that he understands the New
ark situation and would like to APP
peal to the voters in his own way
and to assume all consequences for
failure at the polls, if failure is TO be
his lot.
Another thing that Mr. Reid will
want to know a great deal about, is
whether he can have assurances of
Progressive support in his campaign.
This assurance will be an essential
factor when ii comes to APPOINT of
making up his mind.
1t is said that he will receive assur-
ances of Progressive help and further
assurances that the regulars" will
work hard for his success. Two
years ago there was a division among
the regulars and Louis V. Aron-
son won out by conducting a vigor-
Gus campaign, while those supposed
to favor Reid did practically moth
ing.
The declination oflAugustus " Ham
burg, president of the Board of Trade,
to be a candidate, it is pointed out,
has increased the desire of the Re-
publican workers Ito have Mr.. Reid
Ienter the race.
Postmaster Book Not in 1t.
Several conferences have been held
within the last few days over the Reid
proposition.
1t had been stated that among
those at the conference was Post
master Frank ]. Book. The latter,
when seen today by an Evening Star
reporter and asked for information
expressed himself in a somewhat
warm fashion.
II attended no conferences on that
or any other political question" de-
clared the postmaster. 81 am too
busy attending to my duties as post
master 10 mingle in politics. l am
out of politics and will not partici-
pate in political affairs under any
circumstances. l had not heard even
that Mr.. Reid was being considered
for the mayorality or any other office
The first intimation l had of the
matter was-when I read of it in this
mornings paper. ] also read that
had attended the conferences. 1t is
hardly necessary to say that I was
more than provoked at the references
to myself. 1t Is wonder some peo-
pie won't give a man a show for his
life"

GLOOM FOR MORENCI JOY FOR CLIFTON
 IN SUNDAY GAME
Home Team Brings Home the Bacon in Sack Marked 10 to Som bardment Starts in Fifth Inning.

About eight or nine hundred root
 CTS saw McIlveen and his merry men ride rough shod over Harry Hayes
 bunch of ball tossers last Sunday in the big game, and the re-doubtable Stevens slammed for eleven bingies and ten runs The best Morenci,s efforts netted were six hits for three runs.
 Clifton outbatted, outplafed and out ran Morenci, and all but stole the mitt off Mcfarland, six purloined bases going to their credit.
 Weeks and Riley did the heavy work for McIlveen, and herein lies the secret. This man Weeks can't get too much credit for the game he heaved, allowing only six scattered singles, and only in the eighth were two of those punched, but the game was on ice by that time. As for Pete Riley, he was Stevens particu- lar Nemesis, and maced the ball for a three bagger and two singles.
 McIlveen and R. Grimes also past ed the. sphere hard, and it was R. Grimes three-base blow in the sixth that started sinking the ships.
 Clifton twice pulled off double plays that stopped MoreHci, R. Grimes to McIlveen to Thompson wiping out two Morenci men once, and Bonnie ana k. Grimes got the other on a pretty catch by Bonnie.
 The game went four and a half in- nings before a run was made, and then it was Morenci that scored one after two were out. Mcfarland and Stevens both got bases on balls, and Heinks hit the first ball to left for a single scoring Mcfarland That was all for Morenci until the eighth.
 Clifton went after em in the sixth. McIlveen singled and Stevens fumbled Scanlon's bunt. R. Grimes clouted out a three-bagger. Thompson's hit scored Grimes, giving Clifton three runs.
 The game was sewed up the next inning. A two-bagger by Mason. a single by McIlveen, hit batter. with a couple of steals, and Riley's single netted three more runs.
 Morenci got their other two runs in the eighth on successive hits by Crittenden and Porey and Riley's and error, Pete letting Scan Ions throw get by and Nc throwing low to first.
 Just for good measure, Clifton swat ted in four more in the ninth Crimes got base on balls, and Me Tween singled. Seanlon whaled one over the fence, and Riley and Grimes singled. This bombardment' netted four tallies, and the crowd began to leave. -,-i-i--<

The estimated total assessed valu- ation of Greenlee county for the year 1914 made by county officials who are familiar with the figures, places the amount at approximately $30,000,000.
 From the same source the tax rate in Greenlee county for all state and county purposes this year is placed at SIP on each $100 valu- ation.
 According to the budget prepared this week by the members of the Board, it will cost $347,955. 77 to pay all county and school expenses for the year 1915. Of this estimated amount of expenses, probably $10O,00 will be received by the Treasurer from sources other than direct tax
