From stan Correspondent
TRENTON, April 2O.-The Senate
today passed three bills over the
veto of Governor Fielder. In doing
SO the Republicans placed their own
construction on the constitution
about the period Of twenty-four
hours, during which a bill must lie
over after It's receipt by the House
or Senate.
Two of the bills passed by the
Senate over the executives veto
were only passed by the House last
night. The Republican senators took
the measures up today and passed
them. The Democratic senators main
tanned that House bills vetoed by the
governor and received by the Senate
today should lie over twenty-four
hours
The bills repassed are:
H. 102 (Mr. Conrad)-Eliminates
personal registration in towns of 1000
population.
H. 159 (Mr. Confirms
the election of city recorder in At
lantic City.
s. 241 (Mr. Read)-For the purchase
of turnpike roads.
1t is presumed that the Senate will
do the same thing with House bill 60G
when it comes over from the House
this afternoon. The bill, which ex-
tends the term of State Labor Com
missioner Lewis T. Bryant, was
vetoed by Governor Fielder last night.
The House took it up today and will
pass 1t over his veto and then will
send it to the Senate, where, the in
dications are, 1t will'be passed, too.
The incidental appropriation bill
was passed in the Senate today. Dem
ocratic senators sought to eliminate
an item of $1,000 to Price, Waterhouse
& Co., accountants, for making an In
vestigation of the State finances. OBJ
jections were also made to an item of
5000 to Leonard Pickart for services
to the House of Assembly. The bill
was passed without an amendment.

Summer Weather Will
Last, But Slight Drop
in Temperature Is Due

The premature summer weather
probably will be less noticeable to-
morrow, although the fair weather
should continue. At noon today the
forecaster saw evidence of slight
drop in temperature tonight, but was
unable to say whether the change
would be marked.
The lowest point reached by tho
mercury last night was 63. At noon
the temperature was 79 and there
was six-mile wind from the north.
The wind probably will remain In
that quarter over tomorrow.

S. v. OUGHELTREE,
ILL AND NERVOUS,
COMMITS SUICIDE
WeII-Known East Orange Citi-
zen Hangs Self in
Barn.

Stephen Walter Ougheltree, one
time Republican candidate for mayor
of East Orange, and well known local
business man, committed suicide yes
terday afternoon by hanging himself
in a stall at McCollough's livery
stables, % Rector street. He succeed
ed in self destruction after previous
attempt had failed. Nervous trouble
and business depression are assigned
as the causes for his act.
Louis Weisbecker, the stable super
intendent, found Mr.. Ougheltree's
body in a rear stall in the stable. The
suicide had tied a rope to project
ink plank overhead and because there
was not sufficient room for him to
mount any obstacle he had drawn up
his knees and slowly strangled to
death. When found he was in a
standing position with his feet re-
laxed so that they rested Imply on
the floor.
That Mr. Ougheltree had been de-
termined upon suicide was indicated
by the finding of two ropes, which
he had evidently broken with his
hands in an effort to test their
strength. In one of the four stalls
rented by him was found a rope.
which is believed to have broken
under his weight. A portion cf the
rope attached to a beam with the end
frayed and the other portion with the
moose on the floor gave mute evil
dence of the first attempt at suicide.
He then went to an opposite stall,
where his body was found in the late
afternoon.
Mr.. Ougheltree's body was removed
last evening to Mullins morgue,
Washington street near New street.
Head of Grocery Firm.
Mr. Ougheltree was president of
the wholesale grocery firm of J.
Reeve Sayre Company, 14S Front

o'clock yesterday, as was his usual
custom. He was apparently bound
for home. On leaving the store he

POTATO CASE
GETS DEEPER
BY THE HOUR
Police Say Maid Confessed
That Mrs. Hemmindinger
Broke Windows.
GIRL LATER REPUDIATES
THE POLICE STATEMENT
Says She Was Confused and
Put Mark on Paper to
Be Relieved.

That the potato ''bombardment" Of
the apartment of Arthur A. Hemmin-
dinger, at % Murray street, was an
inside lob" is the declaration made
by the police today. According to
Captain John Caffrey, of the First
precinct, Miss Sadie Schizer, the maid
employed by the Hemmindingers, has
confessed that Mrs. Hemmindinger
broke the windows in the apartment.
The maid repudiated her confession
when seen at the home Of Mrs. Hem
.mendinger today. The confession was
read twice to her by the police, she
said, but she was too excited and con-
fused to understand what it was. She
did not hear the name of Mrs. Hem
mendinger mentioned in the reading,
she said. The maid declared that she
was questioned by a number of po-
hcemen until she was completely up
set" and placed her mark upon the
paper without knowing what it con-
tained. Mrs. Hemmendinger was in
the room at the time that the girl
made the statements.
While still at the station house to-
day the girl told Captain caffrey. in
the presence OF reporters, L1ar MIS-.
Hemmendinger had broken the back
window with a broom handle.
The girl was taken to the First pre-
cinct station yesterday and question
ed by Captain Caffrey and Detectives
Crowley and MCGUIRE. They say that
she finally made confession. i'm
plicating her mistress. According to
the girls story, Mrs. Hemmindinger
broke the windows with broom
handle. Captain Caffrey, who FOR
four nights had men stationed on
every roof and in every yard in the
block for the supposed potato throw
er, said today that he first became
suspicious by noticing that the glass
appeared to have been broken from
the inside.
Captain Caffrey said that a COM
plaint will probably be made against
Mrs. Hemmendinger by DR.. Charles
F. Kreamer, who is agent for the
owner of the property. The Schizer
girl was taken back to the Hem
mendinger home today in charge of
Mrs. Elizabeth Hughes, police
woman.

This morning, when the maid re-
turned to the Hemmindinger home,
after signing the confession. Mrs.
Hemmindinger declared she asked her
why she had been released. The girl
said she had signed a cross to some
paper Mrs. Hemmindinger then said
she drew from her that the paper had
likely been a confession. When she
told the girl what the paper really
meant. the girl absolutely denied its
contents, the woman declared. Mrs.
Hemmindinger phoned to The Star to
say the confession had been untrue
and absurd, and that the girl. speak
ing and understanding no English,
had been in entire Ignorance of its
contents.
They arrested her. Today they
announced they expected a confess
sion from the girl, and late in the
morning said they had obtained one

Peace Reigned Last Night.
Peace was the portion of Arthur A.
Hemmindinger and his family last
night. The Hemmindinger home, at
% Murray street, which mad been

dark to dawn. The Hemmindinger
family was said to have been receiv-
