CALLEDBY DEATH
IN EAST ORANGE
Former Superintendent of
Schools Srccunabs to Heart
Failure at Age of 81.

Jerseys leading educators, died at

intestinal trouble, caused his death.
He was sixty-two years old.
Mr.. Davey severed his connection
with the East Orange school system
at the expiration of the school term in
June, 1913, after being affiliated with
the schools in different capacities for
thirty-hve years. He was superin-
tendent twenty-five years.
Last June Mr.. Davey's health began
to decline and his ailment became
acute three months ago. He was
compelled to take to his bed, and 1t
was some time before the correct di-
agnosis Of his trouble was determined.
Two months ago every hope was held
out that he would recover.
Mr.. Davey was strJng physically.
and this fact, ii was believed, would
hasten his recovery. Recently, how
ever, It was evident that his heart
was weakening, and but slim hope for
his recovery was entertained. Mr..
Davey's death follows that of former
County Counsel Joseph L. Mum, who

COLD WAVE IS
EXPECTED TONIGHT
Sunshine Today and Warm
Weather, However, Bring Sug-
gestion of Springtime.
Newark had another slippery morn

Newark had another slippery morn
ing today, but the temperature was
high and the sun came out brightly
early in the forenoon and remained
in evidence all morning, causing a
general unbutton'ng of overcoats and
loosening of furs and suggesting the
pleasant days of spring.
The forecaster warned early in the
day, however, that what he said yes
terday about another cold wave COM
ing out of the West was correct, and
that before night those outdoors
would again have need for furs and
wraps. The wind, which was in the
northeast yesterday, had swung
around to the southwest today and
gave promise of gale during the
night or tomorrow, bringing fair, cold
weather
The mercury stood at 80 yesterday
at noon, and the lowest mark of the
night was only one degree less. At
o'clock this morning the record was SO
and at neon 40. About half an inch of
rain fell during the night.
Many minor accidents happened
Yesterday on account of tho icy side
walks and pavements.
Patrolman Roger Mcguire, of the
Second Precinct, broke his left wrist
yesterday morning in a fall on the
ice in front of his homo at 3O5 South
Ninth street. He was taken to St.,
Michaers Hospital, and after being
treated went home.
John Pierson, eighty-one years old,
of go Wright street, slipped and fell
on the icy pavement at Broad and
William streets. He was treated at
the City Hospital for an injured left
side.
Slipping on the icy pavement near
her home in Grove place, East Or
ange, Miss Clarissa Anderson last
night fell to the ground. fracturing
her right knee-ca She was removed
In an ambulance to the Orange Me-
mortal Hospital for treatment.
Edward Albert. of 46 Taylor street.
Orange, also sustained a fall from the
same cause. He went down in Pier
son street and an ambulance took
him to the Memorial Hospital where
1t was found he was suffering from
fracture of the left ankle.
William Young, seventy-seven years
old. of 300 Plane street, received a
severe scalp wound in a fall to the
in front of 60 Market street
last night. He was taken to the City
Hospital in the First precinct ambu-
lance. Young slipped on the ice-coat-
ed sidewalk.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, Dec so.-Two
masked men boarded the west-oound
Sunset Express on the Galveston,
Harrisburg and San Antonio railway
near Cline, Tex, early today and at
the point of pistols robbed all Of the
passengers in the two rear sleepers.
AS they neared spofford, Tex, the
robbers gave an air cord signal for
the train to stop. after which they
dropped off and escaped. A posse
quickly organized by officers aboard
the train started in pursuit.
The two men swung aboard the rear

Cline and aroused the porter. With
drawn pistols they forced him to

the latter left their berths they were

How Disturbing Element Has
Lined Up Against Central
High Principal.

The elimination of the bitter fight
against Professor william Wiener
since his appointment to the prin-
cipalship of the Central High School
three years ago is expected tonight
when an attempt will be made to
prevent his permanent appointment
by the teachers committee of the
Board of Education. Mr.. Wiener has
served through the customary proba-
ton period, and his case comes up
now In the regular routine.
When the Central High School wac
opened in 1911 bitter rivalry sprang
up at once between this school and
an older high school-Barringer-and
the friends of the latter. One of
these forms Of rivalry has been a
series of systematic attacks upon Mr..
Wiener and his school, The opposi-
ton to Mr.. Wiener, within the past
year, twice advocated a teacher of
the Barringer school staff for posi-
tions. the necessary qualifications for

WASHINGTON, Dec. 30.-How the
United States could end the Euro

off the export of war supplies was
described today by Representative

Representative Vollmer emphati-

committee that by dollar neutrality
the United States was alternating the
