LAYS LOOT|NG OF
FIRM TO ITS HEAD
Stakeholder Says Hoadley Used
International Power Company
as a Clearing House.

TRENTON, Sept. 24.-That the In
ternational Power Company during
the last ten years has been stripped
of properties and stocks which pro-
duced an income Of $225,000 annually,
and for which it has now nothing to
show, is one of the charges made by
Henry w. Bull, the New York broker,
in his amended bill of complaint filed
in the Court of Chancery asking for
the appointment of a receiver for the
company.
Elsewhere in the bill Mr.. Bull
charges that the power company is
now only a fence for Joseph I'll.
Hoadley, it's president. and his asso-
ciates, and that for years it has been
nothing more than a clearing house
for companies in which Mr.. Hoadley
was interested and as a source of
profit to him and his associates.
In an effort to conceal the alleged
fraudulent diversion of the property
of the company, once rated as
prosperous concern, Mr.. Bull charges
a conspiracy on the part of the men
in actual control, in furtherance of
which Justification of records and the
making Of false returns to the Fed
eral government play q part.
Although the trial balance of the
International Power Company showed
assets June 80, 1914, amounting to
$40, 1856, ,007, Mr.. Bull charges that 1t
could not realize from it's total hold
ings more than 100000, while 1t has
liabilities exceeding $250,000 exclusive
of dividend claims of preferred Stock
holders exceeding 100000.
So imminent is the total collapse of
the company, according to Mr.. Bull,
that it could scarcely raise the amount
of the nominal franchise tax exacted
by New Jersey to keep its charter in
existence.
To cover up the alleged fraudulent
diversion of the company's assets by
Mr.. Hoadley, Mr.. Bull charges, the
books of the company were altered
last December to make 1t appear that
four years prior to that time the COM
pany took over S1,763,0o0 of its capital
stock, now practically worthless,
amount he was supposed to have
paid for the stock years before, to-
gether with interest.
Notwithstanding that the company
has been practically out of business
for a number of years Mr.. Bull
charges that it continues to pay
Hoadley a salary of $4,000 a year
and allows him $1,000 year for trav-
cling expenses. The company, 1t is
charged, still maintains expensive
offices in New York and pays Its at
torney, George S. Graham, retain
Ing fee of $4,000 year. Both these
and other salaries. Mr.. Bull says
are excessive for the services per-
formed, which are of small value to
the company.
BY juggling the interest and other
accounts, Mr. Bull charges, it was
made to appear that the Internation-
al company was indebted to Mr..
Hoadley instead of his being in its
debt. BY such means it is claimed
that the International company twice
purchased and paid for the stock of
the American and British Manu-
featuring Company land relieved the
said Joseph II. Hoadley of RESPONSE
bility for an unfortunate speculation
in the stock of the International
company, of which company before,
at the time of and ever since the
said speculation he has been the
president"

BOROUGH VOTES ON
CITY ANNEXATION
Greater PIainfieId Plan, if De-
cided Upon, Will Present
Odd Situation.
Special to the Evening Star.


NORTH PLAINFIELD, Sept. "a
After having participated in the pri-
mary election two days ago the vot-
ers of this borough went to the polls
again today to determine whether or
not they favor the consolidation of
the borough of North Plainfield with
the city of Plainfield. The act under
which the voters are permitted to
decide the question stipulates that a
special election shall be held, other
wise the question might have been
decided two days ago along with the
fate of a number of aspirants to
nominations for public offices.
An odd feature of the question of
consolidation of North Plainfield
with Plainfield is that If the PROPOSE
tion receives a majority vote the for
mer will be under the municipal au-
thority of the latter, but will still be
within the confines of Somerset coun-
ty. The county will therefore still
claim the taxes from North Plain
field which it is entitled to by reason
of the borough still being a part of
its territory. Some arrangement Will
also have to be formed SO as to en-
able North Plainfield to still accept
its portion of the school funds of the
State and road Improvement money
as a part of Somerset county.
The big issue involved is Greater
Plainfield. This is not the first time
the consolidation has been advocated.
Twelve years ago an effort was made
to bring this about through annexa-
ton of North Plainfield as a part of
Union county, but the proposal was
not successful. If the result of the
voting is favorable to consolidation
today in North Plainfield. then the
voters of Plainfield will have a spe-
eial election to determine whether
the majority favor or oppose the

Special to the Evening star.
ASBURY PARK. Sept. 24.-Rev
James Cough, pastor Of the Man
asouan Catholic Church, is in a seri-
ous condition at his home in Man
asduan as the result Of having been
knocked down and run over by his
touring car.
rather Cough, With three of his
parishioners, was driving from Man
asuuan to Asbury Park when the en-
CINE stalled. He got out to crank the
machine, forgetting that he had left
the lever in gear. Consequently,
when the engine resumed running the
car started forward with a jerk.
The front of the auto struck the
priest with great force and threw
him directly under the wheels, both
of which on the left side of the car
passed over him. The car continued
until it bounded up slight embank-
ment and into fence at the side of
the road.
The injured clergyman was hur-
ried to his home, where it was found
that he had received internal in
juries.

Special to the Evening Star.
ELIZABETH. Sept. 24.-Now that
the primaries are over, both parties
in Union county will bend their eff
forts toward securing the election of
their candidates. The Republicans
and Democrats will begin their cam.
paigns Immediately after the State
convention on Tuesday
At the meeting of the Republican
county committee a new chairman
will be chosen, as Frank II. Smith,
of Plainfield, will not be a candi.
date for reelection. He has already
made the announcement There Is
but little talk regarding his sue
cessor. as there have been hopes that
he would reconsider his decision.
There will be united support for the
selections of the primaries at the
general election, for even the de,
feated men have accepted the de-
cision of the party with the best
of feeling.
The run made by Arthur e. War.
ner, a new man in the party, but
who was defeated by Charles L.
Morgan, was discussed considerably
in political circles yesterday. Mr..
Warner missed the nomination by
only sixty-six votes and carried
every ward in Plainfield, also Rah-
way, Summit, Roselle Park, Roselle,
Hillside, Fanwood Borough. Gar
wood and several smaller places. The
vote was: Morgan, 3,0SS; Warner,
3,017. One of the unexplainable
things of the campaign was the vic
tory of Morgan over Warner in Fan
wood Township by 1s9 to 81, While In
the Fanwood Borough. which ad-
Joins it, Warner beat out Morgan, i3
to 1.
Mr.. Warner personally assured his
successful rival that he would give
him and the other candidates all the
support possible, and next year
would again be a candidate for the
nomination. He also sent letters OF
CONGRATULATIONS to Judge Runyon
and Arthur N. Pierson, the other
successful Assembly candidates.
