ELEVEN IN CLASS
Of GRADUATES At
OLD SETON HALL
Monsignor James F. Mooney,
President of College, Delivers
Commencement Address.

Featured by the opening of the new
$50, 900 Bayley Hall building to inspec-
tion. the fifty-eighth annual com
mencement of Seton Hall College was
held today on the college grounds at
South Orange, under most favorable
circumstances. Diplomas carrying
with them the A. B. degree Were
awarded to the eleven members of the
class of 1914 by Monsignor James F
Mooney, president of the college, who
presided and delivered the address.
As has been the almost invarable
condition on commencement day at
Seton Hall, the weather was ideal
But twice in the history of the insti-
tuition has unfavorable weather
marred the open-air graduation exer-
cises, rendering a retreat indoors i'm
perative.
As in former years the broad yer-
anda of Alumni Hall served as q
stage. Banked on each side with q
profusion of palms and ferns, its ar
tistic appearance was further en-
hanced by the class colors, red ano
white. A large canopy covered the
entrance to the stage.
Seated within the quadrangle
formed by the administra ton build
ing and seminary, the auditorium, ii
braly, chapel and Bayley Hall, were
hundreds of relatives and friends o.
the students. who were present to dc
honor to Setonias favorite sons. Pic
turesque, indeed, was the scene of this
commencement, the stately elms OF
the campus serving to shade th'
large audience.

NORTHROP WILL
NOT ACCEPT THE
PROSECUTORSHIP
Wires Governor Fielder Not to
Consider His Name for
Appointment.

Simon p. Northrop today wired Gov
ernor Fielder a request that his name
be not considered in connection with
the appoin tment of a prosecutor for
Essex county. to fill the vacancy that
will be caused by the retirement of
Louis Hood on July l next.
Mr.. Northrop had been sojourning
in the Maine woods and did not re-
turn to Newark until late Monday
night. He had no initmation of the
movement started by his friends in
his behalf until then. He was sur
prised and gratiied. Gratified at the
interest taken in his cause, and sur
prised at the activity manifested by
his well wishers.
But | cannot permit my name to
be used in connection with the prose-
cutionship, Mr.. Northrop said TO an
Evening Star reporter.
"There are many personal and pri-
vate reasons why | would not ac-
cept the appointment were it rendered
me. ! deeply appreciate the kindly
interest taken by my friends in the
case and regret the fact that l can
not be considered a candidate, If
merely as mark a gratitude to
them They were very nice and con-
siderate, | must say, and l don't just
know how to express my thanks.
Il am pleasantly situated with the
Fidelity, and can see no reason in the
world why / should seek change,
particularly a public office, with a
definite term and duties that might
not prove as agreeable as one could
wish.
ITO be frank, | must say, however,
that | read with pleasure of the fiat
tering things said in my behalf by
the gentlemen who called upon Gov
ernor Fielder to urge my appoint
ment.
1T was all the more pleasant be-
cause of the fact that | knew nothing
OF the intentions of my friends, or
even of Mr. Hoods resignation
1T is my earnest wish that my
friends will not be disappointed at my
attitude after all the trouble they
have taken in my behalf, but | feel
that they will appreciate my feelings.
