of Chancery. the finance board yes
terday afternoon arranged to pay the
claims of a number of riparian own
ers who have recovered damages TO
the extent of S14,608.29 on account OF

sci Edward Il. Mercy, in a communl-
cation to the board, recommended
that the amounts be paid on or be-
fore April 6, since interest is being
charged at the rate of 6 per cent.

MAYOR FAGAN'S
PROGRAM TABLED
Jersey City Won't Hire Record
to Fight for ao-cent
Gas.

JERSEY CITY, April 3-Mayor
Mark NJ. Pagan, of Jersey City, de-
cided yesterday that it was about
time that he and his four fellow City
Commissioners began a constructive
,olicy for the uplft of Jersey City.
The other Commissioners refused to
authorize n policy which centred
about eighty cent gas and George L.
Record.
Mr. Pagan said the first thing to do
was TO get eighty cent gas and that
the best way was to engage Mr..
Record to fight for 1t. Mr.. Record
and Mr. Pagan started the present
Progressive party in New Jersey and
the former is generally credited with
the authorship of the direct primary
bill which Governor Wilson forced
through the Legislature.
The mayors second proposition was
the Endorsement of a bill now in the
Legislature to compel the Public Ser
vice Corporation to pay a franchise
tax. Coupled with this was the adj
vocacy of a scheme to make the rail-
roads pay their fun share of the
taxes The third item was a fifteen
Ter cent. reduction on all assessments
on buildings and an increase in the
assessments on land to make up the
d ference.
Comm ssioner of Finance George
Brensinger said the commissioners
we're too busy with the citvs business
to think about constructive policies
and characterized the mayors pro-
rosals as OF the wildcat variety. His
amendment to the MAYORS resolution
striking out tho references to Mr..
Record was adODted
The Public Service Corporation tax
proposal WAS aid on the table and
the modified single tax proposition
was voted down. four to one.

COLBY ADMITS He
AIDED GRAFT BILL
Relates How He "Swapped''
His Vote for Support on
Normal School Measure.

NEW YORK, April Sex State
Senator Everett Colby, the Progress
sive party's nominee for governor of
New Jersey last fall, unburdened
himself of some political advice be-
fore the undergraduate delegates to
the eighth annual convention of the
intercollegiate Civic League, after the
annual dinner in the University Club
last night.
After he had shown his familiarity
with Emerson and other persons by
quoting freely from their writings,
Mr. Colby "reminisced." He went
back to the time when he was a State
senator in New Jersey and told how
he obtained passage of a bill provid-
ing for the construction of a new
State normal school by voting for
bill to build a 500 bridge, which he
said he knew was only a graft.
In return for Mr.. Colby's support of
the bridge bill it's author, who wanted
relative to get the bridge-building
OBJ helped to shove Mr.. Colby's bill
through.
Former Attorney General George
w. Wickersham, three speeches after
Mr.. Colby, said:
Il was very interested to hear our
friend from New Jersey confess to the
colleagues and himself in the New
Jersey Legislature. 1t was a penal
offense, to be sure. But probably the
statute of limitations has run against
it,"
Mr. Wickersham smiled. Every
body smiled. Not a single embryo
uphfter was seen to frown.
Mr. Colby made clear what he was
talking about by explaining that he
vas showing the difference between
he idealist and the aesthetic in pol
tics. 1t was generally admitted that
Homer himself couldn't have given a
better talk on politics.
William F. McCombs, chairman of
the National Democratic Committee
who spoke next, had evidently for
gotten about Mr.. Colby's speech
Anyhow, he started right off by say
ing:
"A college man must forget he's a
highbrow. As soon as he's a gh-
row he's out of politics. You've
to know the file in politics. You've
got to know silence and the efficiency
of silence. Dream, but make your
dreams come true through labori
We're not here so much to i'm
prove ourselves as to improve the
other fellow. That's my ideal in poll
tics That's why went into politics
and that's what I've tried to live up
to-"
Mr.. McCombs told also of the pc
cuiiar and unusual efficiency of col
ege men in politics, and as proof
to how he had 1900 collegians at
Ike Baltimore convention to cheer for
Woodrow Wilson.
Mr.. Wickersham was the last
speaker. He said there is cloud on
he horizon that threatens the sta
bility Of the civil service, (which
would mean tho undermining of our
government
The delegates will go to Washing
ton tomorrow, where they will be re-

FARMER A LEPER FOR YEARS
He Had Always Supposed That He

Astoria, ore.-Risto Katajisto, a

the patients body. The man himself
admitted that he had been suffering
for five years with the disease, but did
not know its nature. and had never
consulted physician.
DR.. Hartman enlightened the man
as to the nature of his ailment, and
told him he could offer no aid, and
Katajisto left for his home at Win

LAVISH COSTUMES
At ATLANTIC CITY
Extravaganza Outlay Distinguish
ing Feature of Easter Parade.
SILKS REVEAL FIGURES
While the Exhibition OF Color Was
Barbarie, There Was Also the
Saving Grace OF Good
Taste.

Atlantic City, N. J.-While many
said that the Easter parade was CON
sentative, others declared it was the
most barbaric exhibition of color and
variety in dress they had ever. seen.
It was both. 1t was a spectacle of
spectacles, but sensationalism was
absent and good taste predominated.
It was q well-ordered throng, too, be-
cause there were only % policemen,
one stationed at each intersection.
1t is safe to say that never before
have there been such stunning cos
tunes and such an apparent expendi-
ture of money to make them stunning.
There was an astonishing number of
sheer silk gowns, sharply outlining
graceful figures. Flounced skirts num-
bered thousands, while the tier skirts
in every conceivable fashion of in
dividual selections were equally numer-
Gus. Some Of the ruff1es stood out
stifiy as if they had been wired.
Some of those who delight in study
ing the latest whims of fashion thought
for time that the promised dress
sandal for milady had actually arrived
from Paris. The cause of the commo-
ton was new kind of slipper of the
thinnest leather. and pink in color,
with straps passing UP and around the
ankle, where they were secured with
pins big as the customary slipper
buckle. All this was revealed at the
"fiatiron corner" when the wind blew
a little harder than usual.
What the men call baggy skirts were
simply innumerable, but great ma
jority of the women preferred the
closer fitting garment. Next to black,
blue predominated, but there were
thousands of others of every hue of the
rainbow.
Tango carriers made of lace and at
tached at the knee were revealed under
several slit skirts as substitutes for
petticoats. Countless were the skirts
and bolero Jackets constructed of large
Powered materials, some of the jackets
almost suggesting kimouosl In their

Many maids and matrons carried tall

WILL ENFORCE
SALUTE TO FLAG
Wilson Expects Huerta to Com.
ply With His Demand
REFUSAL WOULD BE SERIOUS
The President Confident That the
Mexicans Will Salute the stars
and strIpes--Naval Off
GERS Are Confident.

Washington, d. C.-Upon whether
the commander of the Huerta forces
at Tampico salutes the American flag
in apology for the arrest Of American
marines depend immediate develop
ments in the Mexican situation.
President Wilson declared unofficial
~ that he expected the federal com
mander at Tampico to FIRE salute to
the Stars and Stripes as demanded by
Rear Admiral Mayo. and he spoke with
Q confidence that implied insistence.
The Navy Department was still unad-
vised as to whether or not the salute
had been fred. It Is understood that
instructions have been sent to Charge
O'Shaughnessy to represent to the
Huerta government the feeling Of the
administration here over the affront,
but there has been no announcement
on the subject.
The presence in Washington Of John
Lind, President Wilson's principal rep
resentative in Mexico for the last eight
months, gave the Washington govern
ment an adviser with special knowl-
edge of the military situation at Tam
pico. Mr.. Lind reached here from Vera
Cruz aboard the Presidential yacht
Mayfower and spent several hours
with Secretary Bryan. Authoritative
" It is stated that Mr.. Lind's reports
on the general situation were. so COM
prehensiye and complete that he really
did not have to come to Washington to
supplement them.
Mr.. Lind himself was nncommuni-
cative. saying merely that he had
sought a vacation and was at the or
ders of the government. While he has
kept the President and Secretary
Bryan informed constantly about de-
velopments, his presence here at this
time is considered opportune should
any unusual situation arise out OF the
demand for a salute at Tampico.
Administration officials are hoping
that the salute will be fred and the
incident closed.
At the Navy Department there was
apparent a singular confidence that the
salute would be fred at Tampico. This
was based, it was said, in some
measure upon knowledge of the tre-
mendous offensive power of the Ameri.
can feet now in the harbor or just
outside of Tampico
