WILL SPLIT ON
THE LONG TERM
AND SHORT TERM
Seymour for Latter and Greg
DRY for Former in Con-
gress Fight.
ORANGE FURNISHES
INTERESTING STORY
If True II Provides Solution for
What Otherwise Would Be
Source of Trouble.

From Orange sources comes some
interesting information concerning
the status of Arthur b. Seymour,
city counsel of Orange, who is a cam
didate for Congress in the Ninth dis
trict to succeed Walter 1. Mccoy, who
resigned to accept the District of Co
lumbia judgeship, and Mayor Julian
A. Gregory of East Orange, who is
Seymour's rival for the honor of fill
ing the vacancy caused by McCoy's
resignation.
The information is the more inter
esting as a question has been raised
as to whether Gregory's name alone
should appear upon the Democratic
official ballots, he having filed NOM
mating certificates with both County
Clerk McDonough, of Essex, and Sec
rotary OF State Crater, while Seymour
contented himself with filing a certi-
ficate with the county clerk alone
Ruling Not Asked For.
In the Oranges, it is said, that
the Secretary of State had at no
time, up to noon today, been asked
for ruling on this point.
But aside from that the story goes
That Seymour is to make no effort
for the long term as congressman
and that Gregory isn't going to
bother about the short term.
Seymour's name is to be printed
upon the official ballots as a candi-
date to fill out McCoy's unexpired
term which, if Seymour should be
nominated at the primaries ordered
by Governor Fielder for November
II, and successful at the special cleo
ton on December l, he will be con-
gresham until the day In 1915 on
which the regular term for which
Mccoy was elected would end.
Gregory's name is to be printed on
the official ballots for the long term,
and II successful at the polls on No.
vember he will be congressman I'M
til the expiration of the usual two
year term in 1917.
That Is the way they are putting 1t
up in the Oranges at all events.

FIRST SW|NDL|NG
CHARGE AGAINST
CROKER IS MADE
John K. Phillips, in U. S. Court,
Makes Accusation Against
Missing Lawyer.

The first actual charge of fraud
and swindling against Major Roland
D. Crocker, the missing lawyer, was
made in the United States District
Court before Judge Rellstab, sitting
in this city today.
The charges are embodied in the
affidavit of John Knox Phillips, who
seeks to restrain Judge Cecil H,
MacMahon, Crocker's receiver, from
collecting the rent of property at 20s
Norfolk street.
The affidavit declares that Croker
has "absconded from his creditors
and left his affairs in a much tam
gled condition" 1t further alleges
that the missing lawyer, "by false
abstracts of title and by crafty and
artful methods, has swindled your
petitioner out of large sums of money,
and your petitioner is now foreclos-
ing five mortgages securing loans that
were negotiated by the said Roland
d. Crocker.''
Phillips was a client of Crocker's,
and says he made number of loans
through his office. 1t is said that
Crocker so manipulated all of these
loans that he was the sole beneficiary,
The premises in the suit are recorded
III the office of the register of Essex
county as belonging to G. Harold
Norbury, who until recently was a
clerk in Crocker's office.
When the case was called today by
Judge Rellstab, David Bilder APP
peared with John A. Bernhard as
counsel for the receiver to oppose it.
There was no response by A. S. Tay-
lor, who represents Phillips, and
Judge Rellstab held the case for a
later call
Two other motions were presented
to the court by Mr.. Bilder. One of
these was for subpoenas for the ex-
animation of witnesses and the other
provided for the service of papers on
Croker by publication. Both of these
motions were granted. The several
witnesses will be examined by Judge
MacMahon in order to clear up a
number of Crocker's transactions that
cannot otherwise be understood.

While wispy, gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive

Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur, no one can
tell, because 1t does so naturally, so
evenly. You just dampen sponge or
soft brush with ii and draw this
through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time: by morning all gray
hairs have disappeared, and, after am
other application or two, your hair
becomes beautifully dark, glossy, soft

SEYMOUR'S NAME
TO CO ON BALLOT.
SAYS M DONOUGH
County Clerk Declares Congress
sionaI Petition of Orange
Man Is Proper.

County Clerk Joseph McDonough
said today that in his opinion, Ar
thur B. Seymour's petition for
place on the ballot as Democratic
candidate for Congress from the
Ninth district, has been properly
filed and that Mr.. Seymour's name
will be placed on the ballot, as well
as the name of Julian A. Gregory, of
East Orange.
Objection to placing the Orange
mans name on the ballot was made
by Mr.. Gregory, who has filed appii-
cations both here and in the ce
of the secretary of state at Trenton
and who claims that Seymour's fail
ure to apply at Trenton precludes the
appearance of Seymours name on the
ballot.
The clerks statement:
The ballot reform law compels me
to print upon the ballots of the gem
eral election the names Of all candi-
dates that appear in certificate from
! the secretary of state, and in all
petitions filed in my office which are
in apparent conformity with the law,
and shall be deemed valid unless
, objections are filed with me within
two days after the filing thereof. Also
the names that appear in a certifi-
cate or statement filed by the various
municipal clerks of the county Pro-
vided. however. that the candidates
have complied with the law of fling
their statement of expenditures, and
those that We're written In on the pri-
mary ballot at the primary election
have filed their acceptance in my
office.
'All the foregoing petitions must
be filed in my office at least thirty
days prior to the general election. Tho
petitions that are required to be filed
in my office and which I am obliged
to accept under the law are tho
petitions naming candidates to be
voted for by the voters of a single
county, or a single political division
thereof or the municipal Offices which
are to be voted for upon the county
ticket, and must be filed within thirty
days prior to the election in my office
II know of no statute where could
have refused to file the petition of
Mr.. Seymour, because | am of the
opinion that it was filed in conformity
to section AZ of the ballot reform law,
because ii is an office that is to be
voted for by the voters of a single
county and political division thereof
Under the statute I am compelled to
print Mr.. Seymour's name upon the
ballots of the general election, unless
] am served with an order from the
court who has jurisdiction restraining
me from doing so.
THE intention of the law for filing
congressional petitions, in my opinion.
is entirely explained in sections S42-
Sf3 concerning petitions filed for pri-
mary election, and in these sections it
specified when a congressional dis
trict is laid out wholly within a single
county, petitions shall be filed in the
