FARMERS SCORE
J MARKET OFFERED
AS UNSUITABLE
Assert Site Suggested by. City
Is Full of Holes-T0
Hold Meeth-g.

Farmers who heretofore have used
The Old Centre Market plaza will hold
a meeting tomorrow night in Adelphi
Hall. in Mulberry street, to decide
whether they will accept the site of
Che proposed Public Service terminal,
allotted to them by the city Owing
to the erection of the new Centre
Market buildings, the farmers are
forced to vacate their present quar-
ters along Commerce street.
The farmers have expressed objec-
tons to the site, owing to the many
large cellar holes left there when the
old buildings were torn down. The
farmers state that it will take several
weeks before the site can be made
passable for wagons
Another objection as expressed by
the farmers is that the use of the
proposed site is not for definite
time Louis Conradi, of Richfield,
when seen this morning, made the
following statement:
What will that site do us. The
proposed site is nothing but one big
hole surrounded by smaller ones. How
can we drive our wagons into such a
place.
"It will take weeks to have the site
made level and will cost lot or
money, When we do get there 1t is
only question of a few months when
we are moved again.
THE only way we can dispose of
our goods is to back the wagons
against the curb and sell from them.
What is tho use of moving at all?
The present condition will not be
helped one bit by the action of the
market committee"
William Reach. of this city, backed
UP the arguments of Mr.. Canradi.
Herman Reuben, president of the
Farmers Protective Association, when
seen this morning refused to COM
ment on the situation. He declared
that the meeting tomorrow night will
settle the question. Mr.. Reuben
represents about rs per cent. of the
farmers attending the market.

O'GORMAN HOTLY
ASSA|LS CARNEGIE
PEACE FOUNDATION
Says Laird's Motive Is TO Unite
Great Britain and United
States.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2O.-A sharp
clash between Senators oGorman
and Root over Andrew Carnegie's
activities in the cause of universal
peace marked the opening of the
debate in the secret session of the
Senate yesterday on the ratification
of the general treaties of arbitra-
ton.
The junior senator from New York,
who, with Senator Chamberlain, led
the revolt against the President in OPP
position to the treaties, asserted that
the purpose of the Carnegie $40, 100000
peace endowment was not merely the
propagation of the doctrine of inter-
national peace, but, rather. the pro-
motion of an alliance between Great
Britain and the United States.
In support of this assertion Mr..
O'Gorman read extracts from an ar
ticle by Mr.. Carnegie published in
the North American Review of June,
1893, in which "the Laird of Skibo"
suggested that it would be better for
both countries if their affairs were
directed by a single government, and
announced that he would devote both
time and money to bringing about
such union.
Used for Buying Attacks.
Senator O'Gorman added that, ap-
parently in accordance with this ex-
pressed purpose of Mr.. Carnegie, the
$500,000 income from the peace en-
! dowment had been used in subsidiz'
! ing newspapers, paying speakers ano
supporting publicity propaganda
| In 1911, he said, several prominent
persons were paid for taking the plat
| form to attack the Senate of the
United States because of its attitude
toward the so-called peace treaties.
| Mr.. O'Gorman had not proceeded
| far with the discussion of this phase
/ of the controversy over the treatie;
| before Mr.. Root interrupted.
J Mr.. Root is president of the. Car
negie Foundation, and he sharply re-
sented the suggestion. which he char
acterized as personally offensive to
! him.
! Mr.. O'Gorman said he intended NJ
offense, but when he concluded his
explanation Mr.. Root declared thai
his statement was still offensive The
debate was growing sharper every
minute when Mr.. Williams. of Missis'
sppi, who is a member of the Foun.
dation's governing board, interrupted
| in humorous vein.

WANTS TO DESTROY
CAPITOL ARRESTED
West Orange Police Nab Man
Who Sent Threatening Let
ters to Washington.

Recorder Mclaughlin in West Or
ange today saved the city of Wash
ington, the capital, that is. from de-
struction, when he held George Bern
hardt, forty-seven years old. of 81
Mitchell street that town. in $1,000

ing te capitol. the White House and
the inmates there of. unless President
Wilson puts into effect several re-
forms OF existing things which Bern
hardt mentioned early in his corre-
spondence. which began last fall.
Bernhard, who signed himself
Gods Son. in his missives to the
President. is a lunchman employed
in saloon in Orange street. this
city. He was arrested yesterday by
Detective Heslin and Patrolman
Dangler, of West Orange, on infor-
nation sent to Chief of Police Bam-
ford by the government secret ser
vice department Chief Bamford has
in his possession letter Bernbardt
wrote to the President on February
3. in which he made the threat to
destroy the capital. His other let
ters Chief Bamford says, were more
or less harmless and Of the crank"
variety which every White House
mail brings in.
AS soon as the West Orange po
lice heard from the government au-
thorities that threatening letters
were going TO the White House from
West Orange, their suspicious fell
on Bernhardt. Chief Bamford says
he has kept an eye on Bernhardt ever
since be came TO West Orange three

Receiver Plans Action Follow
ingg Revelations in Bank
ruptcy Hearing.

Representatives Of the Philadelphia
banks and other corporations who
claim preference as creditors of J. w
Greene & Co, of this city, may be
served with notice to show cause
why the alleged preference, or assign
ment of about $5o0,0O0 worth of leases,
should not be set aside. 1t is reported
that Receiver Harrison p. Lindabury
will apply for such an order in view
of the startling testimony brought out
yesterday at an investigation into
the affairs of the bankrupt corpora
tion.
Howe & Davis, of orange, attorneys
for the receiver. held a long consul
tation with the latter today to deter
mine the course of action TO be fol-
lowed. While the receiver is known
to have opposed the granting of the
preferential payments named, it was
not expected that he would meet with
such assistance from the wealthy wit
nesses called before Referee Atwood
L. De Coster.
The minutes of the meeting of j. w.

phia on July Is last, was the weapon

STREET PAVING
WORK AWARDED
Harrison Firm Gets Jobs for
Warwick, Ricord, Jay and
Nichols Streets.

The Continental Public Works, Of
Harrison. was awarded the contracts
for paving four streets by the Board
of Works yesterday. The award was
made on the second series of bids sub
mitted. The first series was received
last December. Then the Newton
Paving Company was the lowest bid
ders. It's bid was defective, however.
New bids were asked for
AS a result of competition created
by the second series of bids the Har-
rison firm offered to do the work for
1881 less than the Newton firms first
figure The actual saving to the city,
however is only 1898. This is due to
the fact that it cost $43S to readver-
tise the bids.
The paving is to be done with as
phalt on a six-inch concrete founda-
tion. The Continentafs figure was
s1.96 per square yard. This is eleven
cents lower per yard than the New
toms figure in the first series of bids
The Continental bids were for pay
ing Warwick street, from Van Buren,
10 Lang streets, $6,544.50; Ricord
street, from West End avenue to Yer
mont avenue, $2,776.10; Jay street,
from Sussex avenue to Central ave-
nue., $685.. Nichols street, from Van

RUN ON
BANK IN HUDSON
President of Highland Trust
Believes Foreigner Spread
GroundIess Rumor.

WEST HOBOKEN. Feb co-Presi-
dent Thomas McEwan. of the High
land Trust Company. wants to know
how the run on that bank started,
and TO that end engaged detectives
today Mr.. McEwan believes that
the run was wilfully started by some
body and he suspects a disgruntled
foreigner.
The run is now thought to be at an
end, and Ii is believed that by the
end of the week most of the deposits
that We're Withdrawn viii have been
returned.
This bank has s12S to show for
every dollar in deposits, said Mr..
McEwan, "and if every dollar of de-
posted money was withdrawn today
the Highland Trust Company would
still have s223, 600. This bank is abso-
lutely sound, so sound that l cannot
imagine how thes run was started
our ability to meet every demand
without aid from any other banks
shows that there is no merit to the
sudden demand for money"
The business men OF North Hudson
showed no signs of distress, and very
few of them withdrew during the
run. Practically every business man
in town is satisfied that the bank is
safe, and did not venture to with
draw funds.

CASTILLO PLACED
IN FORT BLISS JAIL
Bandit Admits He Entered
United States to Escape
Capture by Villa.

Ell PASO. Feb. 20.-Maximo Cas-
tillo, charged with many crimes Of
murder and banditry in Mexico, was
escorted by United States soldiers
from a train and locked in steel cell
in a suardhouse at Fort Bliss last
evening.
Hundreds Of curiosity seekers
crowded the vacant space in front of
the depot when the Ell Paso and
Southwestern train arrived from
Hachita, n. NJ. Company !. Twen-
tieth United States Infantry. formed

station 60 two big automobile trucks
that stood, sll front, United ststes

Foned on the sides. In the trucks were
some empty boxes from the commits
sary storehouse.
Castillo and his party, five men and a
woman, were marched through the
station to the waiting automobiles.
Under command of Major Greene,
the soldiers stationed themselves
about the bandit leader and his as
sociates on the automobile trucks,
their guns loaded and cooked, and as
the trucks movedthrough the streets
the negro soldiers kept their eyes
constantly on the crowds, ready to
shoot at the first move to harm their
prisoner. Castillo's head hung low on
his breast and he tried hard TO keep
from the gaze of the people who had
crowded the streets to get a glimpse
of him.
The bandit leader reached the post
unmolested and was locked in a cell
adjoining that of General Jose Ynez
Salazar, with whom he fought for a
time against Madero. Since Madero's
death the two Travelled different
paths, Salazar with Huerta, Castillo
ostensibly espousing the cause of
Zapata. from all appearances acting
purely the role of looter, murderer
and bandit.
On Castillo's person when captured
was a check signed by William Rox-
by, of Ell Paso, for $1,700, which he
had forced RoXby to pay as ransom
a week ago.
Castillo admitted last night for the
first time that he entered the United
States to escape capture by Villas
men. 81 exhausted every horse |
could secure he declared "and
could not escape. Villas men came
on us several times and we exchanged
shots often. They shot my horse from
under me in the last Tight.
