Ridner FOils Sheriff Again
and Has Sale of His Goods
Postponed for Sixth Time

SUMMIT, March 18.-Once more
George S. Ridner. of 300 Springfield
avenue, through his lawyers, Elmer
L. McKirgan and John b. Walsh, yes
terday succeeded in resisting the eff
forts of Sheriff William H. Wright
to sell his household goods. Yester-
days postponement of the sale was
the sixth adjournment by the sheriff
the sale having been put over yester-
day for one week.
In November last Harry l.
Schwartz, of Dover, obtained judg-
ment in the Morris County Circuit
Court against Ridner to satisfy IA
note in the amount of S53662. Sheriff
Wright had an appraisal made Of
Ridner's household goods. and the
value was fixed at s199.75. As Ridner
is entitled to 5000 exemption, the levy
which had been placed on the goods
was releasd. A second appraisal was
made, which placed the value of the
ehattels at 81, 1850 Since January
q Sheriff Wright has endeavored to
sell the goods, but each time has been
balked by the legal tactics of Ridner's
lawyers. During this time Sheriff
Wright has had u court constable on
guard in Ridner's house night and
day. this officer being paid so for his
daily service.
Ridner was obliged to face another
court proceeding yesterday when
judgment was issued against him by
Justice of the Peace Benjamin p.
Holmes in the case of David s. Wal
ters against Ridner to dispossess Rid
ner for non-payemnt of rent Mr.
Walters claim is for 800 Ridner is
allowed five days after the issuance
of the judgment to settle or be dis
possessed.
Ridner has contended that since the
sheriff has had an officer III his house
for two months, the sheriff is in pos
session and is liable for the rent

Recover.

Charles Roessner, forty-five years
old, of S92 Central avenue, who shot
his wife. Mrs. Margaret Roessner. of
80 South Twelfth street, and Charles
II. Mergott., who tried to protect her,
was arrested today by Lieutenants

passing through her right hand. Mer-
gott attempted To protect her from
further injury, and was shot through
the shoulder and both hands. Both
will recover.

ESCALON ROUT
|Huerta's Followers Make Claim.
Raid in Juarez-Garrison
Sends More Troops.

Ell. PASO, Texas, March 1S.--Mex-
lean refugees of the Huerta political
following last night claimed that Gen
eral Villa was deeisively defeated at
Escalon. They claim that the infor-
nation came confidentially from Tor
reon via Laredo, and assert that Cen
eral Agulrre Benadvides, commander
Of the Hzaragoza brigade, was killed
in action.
A Constitutionalist officer who ar
rived at JuareZ from Chihuahua last
night eVaded questions as 10 the re-
ported battle, but asserted that Gen
eral Villa was in Chihuahua Monday
night. This is not inconsistent with
the report that he went south Sunday
night, however, as he can move very
rapidly up and down the railroad line.
JuAREZ, Mex, March 18.-Prop-
erty of the MADEIRA Company. Limit
ed, at Pearson, Chihuahua, was
raided yesterday. A large quantity
stores was seized by bandits under
Manuel Gutierrez.
The rail closely followed the mur-
der OF Oscar Allen, an American,
who had been employed as watch
man at the store Of the American
Company. Consul Edwards's adVices
said that the guard of Villas insur-
gent soldiers previously placed at the
American numbering town had been
removed before the raid.
WASHINGTON, March 1s-Secre-
tary Garrison today forwarded to

SUBMIT PLAN
FOR HANDLING
WATER SUPPLY
Security Company Won't Sell
East Jersey Properties Unless
Conditions Are Observed.
Especial TO the Evening star.

TRENTON, March 1S-The State
Water Supply Commission today for
warded the following letter to the
various municipalities in North Jer-
sey which will be directly affected
by the State acquiring the properties
of the East Jersey Water Company:
Gentlemen Enclosed herewith Is
transmitted copy of a letter received
from the New Jersey General Security
Company, which sets forth the COM
pany's reasons FOR absolutely refuS-
ing to sell its properties to the state
Water Supply Commission unless the
said commission operates these prop
critics as whole for five years, or
until one-half of the bonds to be Is
sued for the purchase of the proper
ties by the State Water Supply COM
mission, are retired. The company
has taken this position and made this
assertion from the very beginning of
our negotiations, although 1t was
hoped that perhaps these views might
be changed. This being q governing
condition of the sale, we propose one
or the other of the following plans
for handling these properties:
"First-As a whole or as they are
now operated by the New Jersey
General Security Company. The ac-
counts of each of the distribution sys-
TENS or the companies, as they are
now called, to be kept separate and
the earnings of each credited to the
several portions of the plant within
the respective municipalities, similar
ly as they are now credited to the
companies, and that these earnings
shall be credited in the proportion
that the valuation of the various
parts of the plant based ON the COM
missions appraisal and in accord
ance with the offer of the company.
plus the added construction for the
year 1913, less depreciation. and plus
S150.000 cash which the company pro-
poses to turn over for operation,
bears to the total cost of all the
properties. For the purpose Of ar
irving at this proportion the follow
ing approximate statement of what
will then be the outstanding obliga-
tions. including the purchase money

Sea Pounds City of Sydney;
No Hope of Saving Steamer

HALIFAX, n. s.. March 1S.-The
bow of the steamer city of sydney,
which was abandoned yesterday after
running on the Sambro rocks, twenty
five miles east Of Halifax, was still
clinging to the jagged edge of the
rocks today The constant pounding
had shattered the bottom of the
steamer and in the after part, the
water was almost up to the decks.
There was no hope of saving the
vessel.
Captain Mcdonald said that the
City of Sydney was enveloped in fog
during the whole of her run up the
coast from New York He was try
ing to pick up the lightship Halifax,
southeast Of Sambro Island, when the
several miles out of her course
