THIEF
MAKES HAUL IN
W|LENIz HOME

/ The police are at sea over q, fresh
robbery in the southern section OF
the city, which was reported to them
yesterday, and for which no clues
have been found except the barefoot
prints Of the burglars. These are OF
but little assistance in unraveling
the mystery as headquarters has no
|"toe-p print" system and It's finger
print system is only In Its infancy.
According to the report made to the
police by Nathan Wilenz, OF 9S
Lewis street, president OF the Wi
lentz Tobacco Company, thief en-
tered the home early yesterday
morning, ransacked every room on
the first floor and the apartments on
the second floor that were not oc-
cupied.
Loot which comprised two gold
watches, Sc in cash, $6 panama
hat and six jars Of preserves was
stolen. The thief entered by jim
mying kitchen window and
searched the house in his bare feet,
according to the prints on the win
dow sill. The robbery was reported
to the patrolman on the beat and .
futile investigation made.
An attempt was made to rob the
hardware store of Kelly & McAlin-
den, at IA Smith street, at mid
might, in the belief Of Patrolman
Dunham, who found light In the
place and the rear shop door open
shortly before o'clock this morn
ling. The officer passed the store on
his beat earlier In the night, and
says the place was dark, but on his
return that way he found light
burning in the rear OF the store,
where the Office compartment Is To-
Gated. The patrolman stopped a
passerby and had him stand In
front OF the store while he investi-
gated the rear He found the back
door open but on entering the store
found nothing amiss. He notified
Alderman John Kelly, one of the
proprietors, who came to the store,
put out the light and locked the
door. He found nothing taken.

pec.ol by Umsted Press Wire.

Special by United Press Wire.
London, July 25.-The failure of
the Irish home rule conferences
which King George hoped would
solve the waring Ulster situation,
has resulted, it was declared today,
in relieving the tension of all parties.
Following the passing of this last
quoted crisis, all sides today array
ed their forces for straight out
fight. One of the immediate posi-
bilities doomed big In today's out
look. This was declaration of the
Ulster provisional government.
Leading unionists today openly
expressed conviction that declara-
ton is inevitable despite repeated
reports from Belfast that Ulster may
not await further parliamentary ac-
ton, 1t was the intimation of the
government to proceed with its an
nounced program the second reading
Of the amending bill next Tuesday.
In an effort to surmount the many
obstacles now In the way of that
plan, conference will be held to-
morrow or Monday. The national
lists also planned for a conference

Paris, July 25:-A duel between
Judge Albanel, president of the
Court of Assizes, and his associate,
Judge Louis Dagoury. was In pros
pect today as the latest sensation in
the trial of Madame Joseph Call
laux for the murder Of CASTOR Cal
mette. Judge Albanel today sent his
second to Judge Dagoury following
the intimation by Dagoury yester-
day that the presiding Judge was
showing partiality to Madame Gail
laux and her distinguished husband,
the former prime minister.
Leaning over towards Judge AL
banel during the session Dagoury
whispered:
'Sir, you are dishonoring u.s."
At the time Judge Albanel flushed
room did not know what Dagoury
had said, 1t was believed the Incl
dent would be passed.
AS result of the bitter political
feeling and the sentiment which has
been stirred as the trial has pro
gressed, many expressed the belief
that the challenge today was only
one Of series which may follow.
Madame Caillaux tainted In court
today when two love letters written
her by the former premier before
their marriage were read. One OF
these letters ended:
Thousands and thousands OF
kisses upon your beloved body"
Judge AlbaneI ordered a recess
while Madame Cafllaux was removed
from court.

O'TooIe, Of Public Service, SAYS
Service TO New Brunswick IS
Better Than Average, but This
Seems TO be Doubted.
/,
BUSINESS men UP IN ARMS

Members of the executive commit.
tee and committee on county and
city affairs, in joint meeting at the
Board OF Trade rooms last nights
discussed the extension OF the fast
line Public Service trolleys to New
Brunswick in order to afford relief
from the present slow service. The
matter was referred to the TRANSPORT
tatfon committee, which consists Of
II. r. Wilson, julius Klein, w. M.
fraser. Joseph Afflerbach and l.. H.
McHose.
Publicity Manager O'Toole, of the
Public Service railway, stated this
morning that there were no prospects
for-the establishment of the improves.
ment at present and maintained that
improved service was not needed
Mr. O'Toole said in part:
We have no such plan now under
consideration and there are no pros-
poets of having the fast line trolley
line extended to New Brunswick IN
the immediate future"
When told that the business organ-
izations and people of Perth Amboy
had united in demanding better and
quicker trolley service between this
city and the county seat, the adver2E
tising manager said:

Perth Amboy to Port Reading, and
from Port Reading to New Bruns-
wick, and people can 60 to New
Brunswick by that way il they want
establishment Of another line to that
city"
More business men declare that
fast line service would be boon to
business and bring people here Of
tener than they would come on the
snail-like conveyors now in use be-
tween the county seat and this
place. Some say that Metuchen
people would be attracted here more
on the Inauguration OF express serv-
ice as would people from other plac-
es where stops would likely be
made.
j. X. Jensen, of the architectural
concern Of Jensen & Brooks, thought
the agitation for swlfter service is
an excellent idea. He thought X
| the Board of Trade should petition
| the Public Service for express cara,
that the corporation would certain
| ly give it consideration, and maybe
arrange for the inauguration. OF the
fast line system between this place
and New Brunswick, Ls they have
between Newark and Perth Amboy.
He declared a fast service on the
New Brunswick line Is Just as im-'
portant as on the Newark division Of
the corporation. Mr.. Jensen thought
the running time should be re-
duced from one hour and ten min
utes to at the most three-quarterS
of an hour.
John N. Pierson, senior member
Of the architectural firm OF Pferson,
& Son, said: '"The agitation for fast
service between Perth Amboy and
the county seat is a good idea" He
hoped that 1t COULD be soon in--
augurated.

Ellsworth Walker, merchants, ex-.
pressed themselves in favor OF the.
express service as boon to busl-l
ness.

.GARRETS0N WILL
RUN FOR MAYOR

Reports are current In Democratic
circles here today that Mayor Ferd
Garretson will again become the
Republican candidate for the mayor
ality position, despite his repeated
1t is claimed by Democratic leaders
that the Republicans have no candi-
dates who are deemed sufficiently
strong to make the run except Mayor
Garretson and former Alderman-at-
large John Pfeiffer. Neither Of these
men want the position, it has been
stated upon a number OF occasions.
The town has been secured, and 1t
has come to the attention of Demo
Gratis that their opponents cannot find
desirable candidate except those
who have declined to become a
candidate.
When Mayor Garretson was in
formed OF the reports today, he
smiled and said: you can say no
for me again" He has declared en-
phatically upon number OF occa-
sions that be will not become q
candidate again, giving as his rea-
sons the need OF his time for recuper-
alton OF his health and for his
private business and his family 1t
is declared, however, that he will be
prevailed upon to make the run for
the sake of the party.
There has been no mention of
Republican possibilities for the
mayorality position, while numerous
aldermanic prospects have come for
ward. Democratic possibilities for
mayor are George F. Reynolds, John
X. Sheehy, Richard Henderson and
Thomas f. Burke. 1t has been learn
ed upon good authority that Richard
Bolger, partner In business with
Mr.. Burke, also aspires to become

epscfal b. E-sNsd F.rsss wrs.
Washington, July 25.--The state
department has today received from
Consul Silliman the approximate
terms ON which Carranza will deal
with Carbajah. They provide: Con-
stitutional guarantees for all Mexi-
cans, who have not violated the GRIM
inal laws of the nation. Guarantees
for protection for all foreign and pri-
vate property within the confines OF
the nation. 1t Is believed certain

tory. Under them the leaders of the
Huerta revolution receive no protec-
ton, but the rank and file Of the fed
erals secure amnesty.
In addition, 1t is expected private
assurances will be given that the fed

form a new weapon Of national de-
Tense after the rank and file have
