his life. He had drunk some of the
deadly acid before his daughters dis
covered him. He fought them off un-
til exhausted.
Despite the pain caused by the
burns, the girls struggled hard to get
the bottle. This they finally did, but
the acid by this time was getting in
its deadly work. DR.. T. L, Callan, OF
East Newark. who was called, used
the stomach pump, but to no avail.
Stadel was practically beyond medi-
cal aid when the physician arrived.
Before taking poison Stadel wrote
a letter to his daughters, directing
them to have his body cremated. He
left other instructions of a personal
nature. The young women would not
make public the remainder of the
missive.

NEWARK'S BANK
TAX RECEIPTS TO
JUMP S1O6,O93
New Law Will Yield City Total
of $16o,o69, According to
County Board.

As result OF the new bank tax act,
Newark this year will receive s106,osS
more than it received under the old
bank tax law last year. The S106,OsS
includes Newark's share of the bank
tax accruing to Essex county 1t
does not, of course, include the regu-
lar city tax revenue from real estate
The total amount to be paid directly
to the city under the new bank tax
law this year is s96,041. The New
ark banks also will pay a like
amount into the county treasury.
Newark receives about two-thirds OF
the county money because the city
ratables are two thirds of the coun-
tvs ratables. This brings the total
amount for the city up to $lO6, 6,O6s.
Last year the city received from
the various local banks total OF $52,-
919. In addition to this there was
81 .050 in foreign bank taxes. This
comprised a tax ON stock in out-of-
town banks owned by residents OF
Newark
This brought the total bank revenue
I'M to $53.976. This amount deducted
from $3.50, ,069, the amount to be re-
ceived this year, gives an increase OF
s106, ,093.
The difference between s53,976, the
revenue for last year, and $s6,
this years total, is $42,065. This rep
resents the increase in the amount to
be paid directly to Newark this year
by the banks over the amount re-
ceived from the same sources last
year.
The figures are taken from the otfi-
cial ascertainment of the Essex
County Board of Taxation, which was

EGAN'S SENTENCE
TODE COMMITTED
BY PARDON BOARD
Former Hudson Co. Collector to
Be Freed from Prison on
December 1 Next.


SEA G1RT, July 23.-The Court Of
Pardons, after long session yester-
day afternoon, decided to commute
the sentence of stephen NJ. Egan, for
mer county collector of Hudson coun-
ty, and as a result Egan will be re-
leased from States prison on DeceTn-
Der l next.
Egan has been in States prison
since June 20 last serving a sentence
of from one to seven years for en-
bezzlement, the charge growing out
of the fact that he had loaned S31, 600
Of Hudson county funds to the late
Robert Davis. He was also SEN
tenced to pay fine of $1,000. and
this fine must be paid before he can
be released from prison.
Some members of the Court of Par
dons were in favor of releasing Egan
at once, but others held out for the
December l date, with the result that
the latter was finally made the unani-
nous decision of the board.
Following his conviction two years
ago Egan successively carried his
case to the Supreme Court, the Court
of Errors and Appeals and the United
States Supreme Court, only to have
the conviction by the Hudson county
court affirmed by the two higher State
courts, while the United States Court
refused to act in the matter, owing
to lack of jurisdiction
The Court of Pardons also consid-
cred the case of Charles Mack, a
Newark negro, now under sentence of
death for the murder of his wife in
their rooms in Mulberry street in
July. 1913 Mack asks that the SEN
tence of death be commuted to life
Imprisonment Action on this petit
tion was deferred to next Tuesday.

STRIKERS KILLED
J. ANDWOUNDEDAS
COSSACKS SHOOT
Fatal Fighting in ST. Petersburg
Streets-Three Police Of
ficiaIs Injured.

ST. PETERSBURG, July 23.-At
least five striking workmen were
killed and eight seriously wounded
during the fighting In the streets of
st. Petersburg between strikers and
CoSsacks which continued through
out the night and ceased only at dawn
this morning. Three police officials
also are known to have been severely
injured.
The figures quoted are official, but
it is generally understood that the
casualties among the strikers were
much heavier, as it is thought prob
ably they concealed number of their
dead and wounded.
Official returns of the number of
men who have quit work give the to-
tai of 100000 in the city itself. These
include the street car employees. but
do not comprise a large number of
unskilled laborers in the building and
other trades.
Men carrying red flags spent the
night marching and singing revolu-
tionary songs in the outlying open
spaces of the capital, while in the
Viborg district they cut down tele-
graph poles and upset a number of
vans with which they constructed
barricades across the streets. from
the shelter of which they stoned the
police and Cossacks. The mob is also
accused of having fired some revolver
shots.
The strikers, however, eventually
dispersed and the barricades were
destroyed, but only after the police
and soldiers had been subjected u
hot attacks with volleys of stones in
four different parts of the city and
had fired volleys from their rifles in
return.
At an early hour this morning the
strikers attempted to set fire to the
Samson bridge, leading across the
river, near the Viborg district, and
they also tried to destroy the neigh
boring water works. but strong de-
tachment of police arrived in time.

CONFEREESAGAIN
FAIL TO AGREE IN
HOME RULE ROW
Conversations" at Bucking-
ham Palace Will Be Resumed
Tomorrow, However.

LONDON. July 23.-The absence Of
the hitherto prompt announcement
that the conversations will be re-
sumed tomorrow" at the adjournment
of today's home rule conference At
Buckingham Palace was generally ae-
cepted as an indication that their eff
forts to find a solution had failed.
The extreme pessimism and the an
ticipation of a definite breakup Of
the conference were not justified.
however, as later in the day an Off
cial announcement was made that
the conferees would continue their
discussions tomorrow The delay had
caused a great deal Of misgiving.
The meeting was a little more pro-
tracted than the previous ones. It
was attended by Premier Asquith and
Chancellor of the Exchequer David
Lloyd George representing the gov
ernment: Andrew Bonar Law and the
Marquis of Lansdowne. of the regu-
lar conservative opposition; John e.
Redmond and John Dillon, of the
Irish Nationalists, and Sir Edward
Carson and Captain James Craig, Of
the Ulster Unionists.
The crucial question of the area to
be excluded from the control of the
parliament in Dublin under the Irish
home rule measure was the chief sub
ject of discussion. 1t Is supposed
that it was found impossible by the
conferees to attain an acceptable
compromise on this matter without
further consideration.
After the adjournment, Premier As
quith was in audience for ten min
utes with King George.
John Redmond and John Dillon
drove direct from the palace to Down
ing street, where they lunched with
Lloyd George.
A militant suffragette caused a lit
tie diversion by rushing out of the
crowd and through the gates of Buck
ingham Palace toward the visitors
entrance. There she threw stone
at a window, but the missile fell
short. She stumbled and fell before
she had got much farther on her
Journey and thereupon was captured
BY the police and taken off to the sta
ton house.

COMBINE IS FILED
Brief Alleges Pact With B. and

AGREEMENT REACHED IN
MORGAN'S HOME, is CLAIM
Bill One of Most Comprehen-

NEW YORK. July 23.-Civil suit to
force the separation of the New York,
New Haven & Hartford Railroad
Company from it's subsidiary rail,
trolley and steamship lines under the
Sherman anti-trust act was filed in
the Federal Court here today by At
torney- General McReynolds.
The suit begun today has no actual
connection with the criminal indicr-
ments, which the attorney-gener
win ask a Federal grand jury to re-
turn against New Haven officers and
directors concerned In the upbuild-
ing of the alleged unlawful combina-
ton in restraint of trade. The Grim
inal proceedings will be conducted in
dependently of the civil suit and the
failure or success of one is not ex-
pected to affect the other.
7. W. Gregory, special assistant to
the attorney-general, who wrote and
filed the brief, and F. M. Swacker, an
expert from the Interstate Commerce
Commission, who has worked many
months on the case, are expected to
lay the evidence before a grand jury
here on which indictments win be
asked. 1t was understood here today
that these officials feel that they have
sufficient evidence to make out a
prima facie case against many New
Haven officers and directors, and If
this view is correct indictments may
be returned within a few weeks

Such action will mark the begin
ming of what may prove to be the
mcst important criminal proceeding
ever undertaken under the Sherman
antitrust act in the twenty four
years 1t has been on the statute
books. To the civil suit the New
Haven may not offer any great de-
fense, but government officials would
