HINT CONSPIRACY
IN CORD MURDER
Olaf Peterson, His Partner,
Tells of Million Dollar Deal
Report Woman Interested.

Camden, Sept. 0.--OTaf L. Peterson
Of Riverton has made his first public
statement of his business relations
with Samuel S. Cord, real estate man,
of Laurel Springs, n. j., in connection
with whose murder last week he Is
held i'll the Camden courthouse as a
ma terial witness.
Cord, Peterson and Mrs. @. Sprague,
a widow living at Somers Point, N. j.,
were partners in a deal involving land
and timber in Florida, which has been
mentioned before in the investigation
of the case, said Peterson. They ex-
pected this deal to net them $4,000
In profits, Of which Cord and Mrs.
Sprague were to receive s250,ooo each
and Peterson S500,0OO.
Peterson denied all knowledge of how
Cord met his death He specifically de-
MED any connection with the murder
himself and said he had not the slight
est idea who had committed the crime.
He characterized Cord as "a perfect
gentleman and my best friend"
Baffied at every turn by the absence
of anything like real clew to the mys-
terry of the murder, detectives working
! on the case have about reached the con
clusion that the Staying was the result
of conspiracy by group Of men who
hoped to profit financially by Cords
death.
| AS the case stands at present, the IN
vestigators admit that the only prog
ress they have made toward a solution
Is the elimination of many things
which at first seemed like promising
| clews
! The work has settled down now to ar
| exhaustive investigation Of the history
and actions of scores of men whose
names were found In correspondence
and other papers In Cords office and
patient hope that the murderers will dt
something, make some false step, whic]
will disclose the secret now hiddel
| from the authorities.

Miss Everitt. l understand the su-
perintendent's services to the Board
of Education cover twelve months
in the year, for which he receives
compensation. Did he ask any mem
Der of the Board of Education for
permission to attend school through
the summer
Superintendent Barr stated he was
sorry, but could not reply to the
question, that 1t never entered his
mind; when his salary was arranged
for twelve monthly payments he dld
1ot understand he would have to sit
in the office the whole twelve months
of the year. 1T always seemed to

liberty to do so. l am perfectly will

| have done something l should not
have done, | regret 1t exceedingly.
This was followed by quite
lengthy discussion in which eacn
member of the board who were mem
bers at the time Mr.. Barr was en-
ployed, expressed their understand
| ing of the terms, which were to the
effect that he was merely to look al
ter such duties as might be required
! during vacation period, see that mat
| ters were properly closed up, and
| that everything was in shape for re-
| opening, attend meetings of the
board during vacation period, and be
subject to call for such duties as
! they might require. They thought he
probably might have notified them
as a matter of information when ano
| for how long he would be absent
| from the city, 80 that they might
know how to reach him II needed
but that the arrangements under
which he was employed gave him lib
erty to be absent.
Mr. Littell did not think the two
cases were parallel; and stated h'
knew what would happen to any
members of the board If they were
not on their job at the appointed
time, but if the board were going tt
give teachers the privilege of beint
absent until they chose to come back
well and good.
Mr.. Mason stated he thought Mis-
Eyeritt had not acted properly IL
this matter; that she had sutficien
vacation to make the trip she wa
making and be ready when schoo
opened; that her work was of char
acter that could not be taken up b!
a substitute that there had beel
other occasions when she had embar
rassed the board and that she hat
been reprimanded and cautioned; h
stated frankly he was in favor of {
suspension, pending consideration o
what had best be done.
Mr.. Littell thought the boart
were entitled to some explanation
before Miss Everitt was permitted t.
return to her work.
Mr.. Grace offered a motion tha
Miss Everitt be suspended for fail
ing to report for duty at the prope
time, as specified in the rules ant
regulations. This was carried.

special to the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, Sept. 9.-The special
state commission to investigate mu-
nicipal finances is preparing a series
of bills to be introduced at the COM
ing session of the legislature. They
will be based upon the several public
hearings the commission has held
and upon the Investigations which
have been conducted since the hear
ings were completed.
Assemblyman Arthur N. Pierson
of Union county, is chairman of the
commission. He states that the meas
ures will be comprehensive in char
acter and will, in his opinion, effect
much needed reform.
1--WE will not propose anything
radical" said Chairman Pierson to-
day, but our bills will, we believe,
cover the ground thoroughly. We
think it is possible to reduce mun1c-
ipal accounting to an exact scientific
basis, and it will be our purpose in
these bills to bring about this re-
suit"
| The Pierson Commission has been
| the most industrious of all those
named at the last session of the leg
islature. 1t has held many public
hearings in several sections of the
state and has prosecuted its work IN
other directions. Now, several
months in advance of the legislative
: session, the members, led by AS
semblyman Pierson, are at work up
I on the necessary bills to make effec-
tive the investigation.

Thick and Thin Shells.

There are several kinds Of high ex-
plosive shells, which have been design
ed for various purposes. For instance,
there are the shells the case of which
is very thin, so that their capacity for
containing explosive may be increased.
These explode instantly at the slightest
contact and are used as mines, or, In
other words, they cause damage not
by the impact of their mass but by the
ierceness of the explosion. Another
kind Of explosive shell is made by in,
creasing the thickness of the steel case
and reducing the charge Of explosive
The explosion of this missile Is calcu
lated to take place a little after con
tact. This type Is used for the destrno
ton of solid defenses, like walls, earth
en- works. etc. as the thickness Of the
case and the slowness of explosion per
NIT them to penetrate the fabric befor

Cornish and Sauab Pie.

There are few, If any, conger eels IN
American waters; they are to some
people most unpleasant looking fish.
Cornwall, England, esteems them high
ly and makes them into pie with much
cream and parsley. Cornwall, Mrs.
Florence Coaig Albrecht explains In
National Geographic society bulletin,
makes any number of things into pie
and calls the product invariably "squab
pie," though all things but squads are
among the materials. SQUAD pie" gave
rise to the following Cornish story re-
peated by the writer:
"The devil came one day to The
banks Of the Tamar, the ripping river
that divides Devon and CORNWALL, and
looked over at the rocky land beyond
His majesty considered the swift cur
rent and shook his head. Nor he said
finally. No, that's no place for me!
