against them upon the document
lying before the men when they
were arrested and which the po-
lice seized.
Three Charges.
That document, roughly cor
rected and interlined, sketched n
campaign of organized passive re-
sistance-and foreshadowed the
Russian revolution.
The government determined to
press its case against the five
in order to discredit the accused
men.
They were therefore charged:
With belonging to the social
democratic party, which consti-
tutes crime in Russia.
With making a revolutionary
propaganda. Any effort at social
reform is revolutionary propa-
ganda'-in Russia.
With being traitors who sought
to bring about the defeat of Rus
STA in the European war by or
ganizing an anti-military protest
of the Russian people.
Sentenced to Siberia.
The rough draft of a policy
seized by the police when the five
men were arrested proved--noth-
ing! And there was no clinching
evidence to sustain the other
charges.
Yet Petrofsky, Maroenoff, Sha-
goff, Samaeloff and Badayeff--
unknown men whose names are
certain to become historic-were
sentenced to Siberia for an uh.
named term of years.
The futility of this Russian JUS
tice is obvious. The five uncon-
victed but sentenced prisoners re-
main members of the duma since
the duma alone has legal power
to expel them.
Bound to BE Retrial.
Hence, the duma will inevitably
be stimulated to pass measures
designed to protect its members
from government prosecution.
The prisoners cannot be sent 70
Siberia because their case has
been appealed.
Public opinion will compel a
retrial and the case is certain to
become notorious.
1t is the first formal movement
of a war-ridden people to protest
the crushing burden of armament.
The case is the case of the Rus
sian people against the Russian
government. Crude and imma-
ture, 1t is ESSENTIALLY Patrick Hen
rvs protest that the people must
be trusted with their own.
Will Shake Thrones.
The great war will shake every
throne in Europe. Only citizen
kings willing to bend to such
swaying can keep their seats.
Court parties and unions of no.
bility in all the empires involved
in the war are now quietly organ
king counter revolutions to meet
the day of reckoning with the
people.
The cars government antici-
pating decisive victory abroad has
prepared to oppose the people at
home.
War has walked sleeping forces
which make the old submission
impossible. The soldiers educat-
ed since 1906 in the dumas pub
lie schools are prepared to- as
simulate ideas. The army will
come back understanding the
wrong which has been done them.
Crime to Think.
1t is a crime to think in Russia.
To make itself independent of the
duma the Russian government
has secured gigantic foreign loans
and Is attempting to organize q
subservient ministerial Iarty, a
party formed for peasants to

EXAMINATION OF
BLANCHARD IS
AGAIN HELD Up
Witnesses Appear Yesterday,
Papers Missing-WiII Continue
Testimony Next Week.

Objections to the discharge OF
Frederick c. Blanchard, So Evergreen
place, East Orange, from bankruptcy.
will be heard for the sixth time next
week as another adjournment was
taken at the hearing yesterday after
noon in Bankruptcy Court. Two wit
nesses from Pennsylvania, who were
absent from previous hearings, were
present yesterday and counsel pre-
dicted the case would be concluded.
II developed, however, that one of the
witnesses failed to bring some paper
having an important bearing on the
case.
Frederick G. Blanchard, with his
brothers, Theodore G. E. and Will
liam W. Blanchard, filed voluntary
petition In bankruptcy about q year
ago. The trio were involved in the
failure of the Blue Ridge Brick
Enamel Company of Pennsylvania,
and each is said to have lost heavily
IN the investment. Frederick's coun-
sci, Corwan Howell, applied for a dis
charge from bankruptcy for his client
-Wo months ago, asserting the bank
Supt had given over to his trustee all
his property. Then the objections to
The discharge were filed by Harvey
=. Carr, of Camden, representing sew
eral note creditors. These creditors
argue that Blanchard must have fur
nished them with false statements as
to his assets and liabilities or else
he had not turned over all his prop
erty to the trustee
Milton Taylor Uhler, of 1881 Locust
tfreet, Philadelphia, whose testimony
Las long been sought, shed little light
sSl the case yesterday. He did iden-
Ny a copy of a financial statement
Hnrported to be given by Frederick
Blanchard to creditors on December
l, i91i. According to this statement
Blanchard's liabilities were 1000,
which we're offset by assets aggre-
eating $296,700. This is the state
ment, which, according to the object
ing creditors, did not show a true
representation of Blanchard's finances
at the time. 1t is alleged the liens
against his property were greater
than he stated
Mr.. Uhler promised to bring his
papers with him at the next hearing.
The papers, said the witness, would
clear up much of the testimony which
has been vague up to this point. Ia
cob Nolte, of Reading, Pa, testified
he had loaned $4,000 on two of
Blanchard's notes after reading the
latter's statement.
"When l saw that statement l did
not hesitate to lend the money" said
Nolte, because it showed. on the face
of it that the man could pay ten
times as much as the loan"
The witness Uhler said he became in
terested in Blanchard when the lat
ter wanted to raise 500, 900 in Decem-
Der, 1910.
81 asked Mr.. Blanchard for finan-
cial statement for two reasons" ex-
planned the witness. First, wanted
something in written form from him,
so that if his statement was untrue
I would have something to hold him
on. Second, I wanted something to
show the men who was to approach
to borrow money for Blanchard. 1
wanted to show that this man was
worth a great deal of money"

COST TO WIDEN
MARKET STREET
NOT A DRAWBACK
Business Mems Improvement
Assn Declares Benefits Would
Far Exceed Outlay.

Members of the Market Street Busi-
ness Mems Improvement Association
at their meeting yesterday indorsed
a plan of widening Market street
from Mulberry street to the Pennsyl-
vania railroad. In discussing the
proposition 1t was said that the ex-
pense would be trivial compared to
the benefits that would be derived
from such a change.
It was openly stated that but one
new building had been erected in this
section for thirty-five years, and in
the opinion of c. l. Cannon, the
widening of the street would mean
the erection of new buildings all
along the southern line. In speaking
on the question Mr.. Cannon stated
that he did not believe 1t would take
any more than 900 to make the
improvement. and he gave as the
minimum $500,0
Former Mayor William II. F.
Fielder indorsed Mr.. Cannon's senti-
ments.
Edward Blau introduced a resolu-
tion asking the support of the asso-
citation toward the opening of Central
avenue. Opposing Mr.. Blaus resolu-
ton Max Hammerschlag said If the
association passed such a resolution
it would make enemies throughout
the city, because the city administra-
ton was opposed to it at present
owing to the lack of funds. He de-
clared that the association should
remain neutral in the matter.
Leopold lay asserted that he
Thought all improvements should be
encouraged, and that the city should
spend every year from $500,000 to 81,
100000 toward securing same. He as
serted that 1t was a matter to be re-
GREETED that the city neglected twen-
ty-fve years ago to start the i'm
movement of the Newark meadows.
The Central avenue opening mo-
tion was laid over for future action.
A campaign will be commenced by
the association members to try and
nersuade all merchants along Mar
l.ot street to discard all unsightly
awnings and signs. Strong sentiment
WIS created throughout the meeting
to have all merchants adorn their
establishments with electric light
signs, it being the impression that a
clean and sanitary appearance would
be created and that it would do much
toward encouraging new business.
A resolution was adopted to form
/, recommendation committee in the
future. and to communicate with the
public Service Corporation toward
having more stops made in the olty
bv their express cars running be-
tween here and Trenton and to inn
nrove general transportation facil-
tiles. -
A resolution was passed and re-
ea1red To the grievance committee
of of the association about conferring

holders along Market street regard.
