LIMITED MARKET
SPACE IS COSTLY
City Losing Fees Through
Cramped Quarters for the
Farmers.

That the limited quarters of the
farmers market is the cause of de-
crease in license fees, was made
known at the meeting of the public
market committee of the Common
Council last night. During the past
month about $500 less was received
than was collected during August of
last year for market fees. Assistant
Market Clerk Charles Lemmermeier
reported that STATS was collected
from the farmers during the past
month.
Market Clerk Thomas A. Boyle said
that every Saturday farmers wagons
are lined along the curb in Mulberry
street from the Centre Market to St
Johns Church, and fees could not be
collected from these farmers. He
stated the limited space at the mar
ket was the cause of the falling oft
in the amount of fees collected last
month. The total receipt for August
was $5,766.84.
Alderman James P. Rogers praised
the campaign which Mayor Hausslin9
has been conducting to reduce the
present high cost of living. He said
the citizens of Newark should be able
to purchase foodstufts at reasonable
prices.
The alderman referred to the
Mayors investigation when he advo-
Gated the granting of a permission
to Harry Heller, who conducts a
stand in the market, to sell poultry
in connection with his present busi-
ness. Mr.. Rogers contended that
competition in the market would help
reduce present high prices. The re-
quest was granted.
By a vote of 5 to l, Peter Herman,
now employed as a sweeper at the
market, was appointed foreman or
the sweepers, to fill a vacancy. Kier-
nan was nominated by Alderman
Charles G.. Hahn. Alderman Rogers
nominated Charles Boob, the present
assistant foreman, for the position.
He contended that it was not in ac-
cordance with the Civil Service Com
mission to appoint Herman. The
matter was referred to the market
clerk with the power to obtain civil
service list

BRING ACTION TO
GET DIVIDENDS
Proceeding Brought Against
American Steel Founders in
Behalf of Lazear Estate.

A proceeding has been instituted in
Chancery on behalf of Thomas c.
-Lazear and Jesse T. LaZear, of Pitts
burgh, Pa, executors of the estate of
Alice c. Lazear, to compel the Amer
lean Steel Founders, an Illinois cor
poration, to pay dividends on 102
shares of the preferred stock origi-
nally issued by that corporation.
The matter came before Vice-Chan-
cellor Stevens yesterday afternoon
on a motion made by John o. Bige-
low. solicitor for the compliments, to
strike out parts of the answer of the
defendant corporation.
On August is, 1904 the American
Steel Founders was reorganized and
the shares of preferred stock retired
The holders were offered for each
shae of preferred stock in their pos
session IS in cash. $40 in four per
cent. bonds and S77 in common stock
of the corporation. Holders of 1885,
sos shares of preferred stock out of
1876. 400 assented to the proposition.
The executors of the Lazear estate
were among those who withheld their
consent. and now come into court to
assert their right as holders of pre-.
ferred stock. In addition to demand
ing dividends, they ask that Chan
Gerry direct the defendant company to
inform them what dividends have
been paid since August Is, 1904.
The answer of the defendant COM
pany sets up that the complainants
are no longer preferred stockholders.
and, therefore, are not entitled to the
information demanded It was to
this part of the answer that objection
was made. After hearing argument
by Mr.. Bigelow and j. Edward Ash
mead, of the firm of Lindabury, De-
pue & Faulke, representing the de-
PENDANT company, the vice-chancel-
lor reserved decision.

Fragile and delicate as was the
members to Jessie Woodrow Wilson,
the present Mrs. Sayre, this silver
service presents an absolute contrast
in its massiveness. The general de-
sign followed is a conventional figur-
ing of the chrysanthemum, which is
carried out in detail on all the pieces.
The set is made up of tea kettle.
tea pot, coffee pot, sugar bowl and
cream pitcher, in addition to the
tray. With it. also, are handsome
candelabra.
In striking contrast to the simple
ity which has been so popular in all
silverware recently, this service is a
wonderful example of the silver
smiths art.
| Massive is the only word which Mt
tingly describes it. The salver, which
| is oblong. but square at the ends, is
surrounded by wide band of the
heavy carving, while the center por-
ton is filed with filagree-like en-.
craving. The tea kettle, which
stands about twenty inches high. Is
of rather squat build, this. in fact,
|
service. The tea pot and coffee pot
follow the same lines on a smaller
scale, while the cream pitcher, which
is gold lined, and the sugar bowl are
noticeably squat
Especially beautiful are the can
delabra- Rising from comparatively
simple base are five branches, with
single setting for candle In the
center. Interviewer between the
serpent-like arms of the candlesticks
are the chrysanthemsHh leaves, the
whole forming a pattern of unusual
beauty and workmanship They stand
about eighteen inches nigh.
This, of course. Is but one of the
many gifts which Miss Eleanor VIII
son is sure to receive. The presenf
| from the house of REPRESENTATIVES,
was selected by a committee OF con-
gressmen consisting OF Representa-
tive James r. Mann. chairman;

spring has been a shining black sailor

McAdoo Born in Georgia.
The bridegroom, Secretary William
G. McAdoo, was born in Marietta, Ca,
81 years ago. He was only 81 when
admitted to the bar after his studies
at the University of Tennessee. He
practiced his profession in Chatta-
nooga for eight years, then moved to
New York There he conceived the
project with which his name is identi-
fied-the Hudson River tunnel sys-
tenn, linking New York and Jersey
City. Mr.. McAdoo was president of
the system from 1902 to 1913.
Mr.. McAdoo was one of the "origi-
nal Wilson men, and as vice chair
man of the democratic national COM
mittee and as acting chairman during
much of the 1912 campaign, the &C
auaintance between the two, failed to
be bound together later by family ties,
and had no breaks from its inception.
Mr.. McAdoo's first wife died about
II years ago. OF his SIX children,
three sons and three daughters, the
two oldest are married.
When Secretary McAdoo took
residence here last fall he selected
1903 Massachusetts avenue. His
household here has consisted of his
two daughters. Until coming here Mr.
McAdoo and his family spent much
time each year in his commodious resi-

Well Known in Capital.
Both OF the contracting parties to
the wedding OF today have become well
known here during the present ad-
ministration. The future Mrs. McAdoo
is the brunette of the Wilson daush-
tiers, with such an expressive face that
most people call her handsome.
She is tall and slender, her head Is
we'll shaped, her eyes are blue, and
when she smiles-or, better still, when
she laughs, which is often-she shows
her fine teeth. Her hair is shade
darker than her mothers and she
wears It in a coil wound round her
head. She follows the modes in dress,
without exaggeration.
Miss Wilson was born IN Middle
town, Conn, where her father was a
professor at Wesleyan university. At
10 she went to Raleigh, n. c., to board
ing school. Later on while her sister
Margaret went IN seriously for vocal
study, and another sister was ens
gagged in social settlement work IN
the Kensington. Pa. mill district, the
bride of today began her art studies In
Philadelphia, inheriting her ability and
taste in that direction from her moth
er.
Enjoyed Capital Society.
Life at the capital opened up a pro-
gram OF events which the bride-to-be'
has enjoyed in the fullest. Most OF the
White house weekend guests have
been former associates of the Wilson
girls and have Joined in their social ac-
tivities here.
The White house tennis court, IA
nous during the Roosevelt regime,
fitted in perfectly IN the Wilson girls
home pleasure scheme.
Miss Eleanor plays a good game OF
tennis, though equally devoted to
horseback riding. She is also fond
of walks. often Joining the president
in his jaunts, although her walking
partner the past spring has been her
future husband. Secretary McAdoo
has tramped with her many afternoons
after his Office hours through the up
town streets and suburbs.
Miss Wilson's gowns OF last season
have been especially and are part OF
her trouseau. One OF her most becom-
ing ball gowns was a white satin, both
skirt and waist draped. the distinctive
feature being the broad girdle OF black
velvet ribbon with long sash ends.
Simplicity still rules the gowning OF
Mrs Wilson and her daughters for the
streets and home wearing. One OF
