Democratic Committee, and State
Democratic Committeeman Dennis f..
Collins, or, as it is stated by Chair
man Russell in the words of Shakes

County Chairman Russell, in a

said that while a fight In the party
ranks was deplorable, that other
things were worse, and the battle
would be kept up against Collins
from now until primary day. He ac-
cused the general of using the party
for his own personal ends, charged
him with being responsible for the
excise conditions that led up to the
indicting of the Excise Board of
Elizabeth, and claimed that Collins
had never given eny party funds ex-
cent in such way that he would
personally gain by the votes OF those

PROBING BARNES
PRINTING WORK IN
LIBEL SUIT TRIAL
DoIan Testifies Albany journal
Got IS Per Cent. of Con-
tract Prices.

SYRACUSE. n. y, May 3.-The
securing and execution in Albany of
contracts for public printing were the
subjects upon which a number of
witnesses summoned by Theodore
Roosevelt testified in the Supreme
Court here today. 1t is claimed by
the colonel in the answer he filed TO
William Barnes's suit against him for
alleged libel that much money be-
longing to the State and the city and
the county of Albany was wasted in
printing public documents, and that
Mr.. Barnes benefited thereby.
The colonel further charged that so
great was the control exercised over
printing contracts that on more than
one occasion the Albany Journal, in
which Mr.. Barnes is represented as
being interested, received a percent
age from Albany printing concerns to
which 1t ''farmed out" contracts.
Justice William S. Andrews, presid-
ing at the trial, has pointed out,
however, that Mr.. Barnes as a
stockholder in the Journal Company
is not responsible for the acts of that
corporation.
Mr.. Dolan resumed the stand upon
the opening of court and was ques-
toned by John NJ. Bowers, chief
counsel for Colonel Roosevelt. upon
printing contracts awarded by the
Common Council of Albany.
Mr. Dolan explained the repeated
use of the same type composition.
In some cases, he said, the company
figured on a profit of twenty-five
cents a page for printing such docu-
ments as the proceedings of the
Common Council. In others where the
bid was $1.25 per page and the same
type composition was used, profits
of $1.10 per page was figured upon.
In testifying about reports of the
Board of Education, Mr.. Dolan said
the contract was for printing at $1.55
a page, its regular bi-monthly reports.
The type for the bi-monthly reports
was kept and used in printing one
thousand copies of the boards annual
report. This report also appeared In
the proceedings of the Common Coun-
Gil.
$50 that the report in full or part
was printed ON three separate oc-
casions from the same type?" in
quired Mr.. Bowers.
THAT is correct" replied the wit
ness.
AN item in the books of the Argus
company showed that the Journal
had been billed for the annual re-
port of the Board of Education.
Were you under an agreement
with the journal company to give
Is per cent. for all orders received
from the Common Council?"
I'VE agreed to pay Is per cent. if
we would get the work of printing
their extras"
Mr.. Bowers produced a book mark
ed printed by the Journal COM
pany.'
who printed it,
The Argus company" replied Mr..
Dolan.
'In 1909 and 1911 did you pay the
Journal company Is per cent for all
moneys you received from the city,"
YES" replied the witness.

EDGE SORRY c. O.P.
FAILED TO ENACT
HOME RULE BILL
Senate President Says 1t Must
Be Given Consideration Be-
fore Another Session.

Replying to letter from the special
civics committee of the New Jersey
State Civic Federation, Senator Wal
ter E. Edge. president of the State
Senate, admits it was unofrtunate
that no home rule measure was
passed, although his party was
pledged to such an enactment, and
states that the pledge of the Repub-
lican party must be given careful
consideration before another session
and definitely disposed of at that
time"
The Civics took up with the Allan
tic City man the failure of the Re-
publicans in control of the two
houses of the Legislature to adopt
the home rule legislation, which was
made a part of the Republican legis-
lative program at the beginning OF
the session. Senator Edges letter,
made public by N. ID. Waffle, secre-
tary of the Civics, was as follows,
dated April 2S:
'T am afreaid my interview regard
ing the Legislatures action on home
rule has been misunderstood. What
I attempted to set forth briefly in
referring to the record of the Legis-
lature in carrying out platform
pledges, was that in the matter OF
home rule the constitutional amend
ment was substituted by the bill pre-
pared and introduced by Senator
Rathbun. This bill passed the SEN
ate, as I recall it, without looking up
the records, unanimously. However,
it did not pass the House.
"There is no question that the
matter of home rule unfortunately
was not disposed Of by the past
Legislature which is, however, l be-
lieve, the only important pledge on
which something definite was not ac-
complished. 1t Is, of course, one of
the most important pledges, but the
feeling that the constitutional amend
ment was in its repeal of all of the
constructive laws of a hundred years
going too far and in the busy rush
of a legislative session, it was rather
difficult to have prepared a suitable
substitute that could be enacted into
law. 1t is certainly one of the pledges
that must be given careful consid-
GRAFTON before another session and
definitely disposed of at that times

SHIP
WAS CAP tanned
BY BAYONNE MAN
Gunter, Who Commanded the
CuIfIight, Reported to Have
Died of Heart Disease.

NEW YORK, May 3.-The two
Americans in addition to Captain
Gunter who lost their lives when
the American steamer Gulflight was
torpedoed off the Scilly Islands were
Charles c. Short, of Chicago, the
wireless operator, and Eugene Chapa-
meta, of Port Arthur, Tex, seaman,
according to a cablegram received
here today by the Gulf Refining Com
pany, owners of the vessel.
The message, a brief one, was
signed by First officer Ralph Smith.
1t is said that Captain Gunter, whose
home is in Bayonne, N. j., died of
heart disease and that Short and
Chapaneta were lost. These were
the two men, it is believed, reported
yesterday to have jumped from the
vessel after she was struck and who
were lost because of the fog that pre-
vailed.
Shorts home address, according to
the company's records, was 708 West
103d street, Chicago He was taken
aboard the Guliight at New Or
leans April 7. This was his first trip
aboard the vessel. Chapaneta shipped
at Port Arthur Including her Off
GERS, the Gulflight had thirty -eight
men aboard, most of them hailing
from Gulf of Mexico ports. Ship and
cargo, according to James Kennedy
marine superintendent of the COM
pany, were valued at 81 100000.
Mr.. Kennedy said he was waiting
further advices giving full partic-
ulars of the attack on the Gulflight
before communicating with the state
department. A claim for the loss sus-
tained, including damages for the
lives lost, undoubtedly would be filed
with the state department, he
thought.
The Gulflight's cargo, Mr.. Kennedy
said. consisted of gasoline and oil in
bulk and in cases. 1t was consigned
to firms doing business in France and
not to the French government, he as
serted.
Captain Alfred Gunter, whose death
from heart failure was reported, was
fifty-two years old. He lived at 1852
West Fifth street, Bayonne. Early in
the year he took a cargo of cotton
into Bremen aboard the Gulflight. In
January of last year he was in COM
mand of the steamer Oklahoma,
which broke in two in a gale off the
New Jersey coast and was rescued
with seven of the crew by the
steamer Bavaria.

RELATIVES DENY
PHYSICIAN TRIED
TO KILL HIMSELF
DR.. j. C. Anderson, of Montclair,
Says He Was Testing Revolver
When Accident Occurred.

Hopes are now entertained for the
recovery of DR.. John Cameron Ander-
son. of 43 Union street, Montclair,
who was found unconscious near
Eagle Rock Saturday night with a
bullet wound through his body. He
is now in Memorial Hospital, Orange
While in a serious condition, the ply
sicians in attendance believe he has a
good chance to pull through.
The shooting Is still shrouded in
mystery. DIR. Anderson was found
unconscious in some underbrush near
the City View Hotel, just below Eagle
Rock, in West Orange. a revolver
was found alongside of him. He re-
fused to make any statement at the
hospital after he had regained con-
sciousness, other than to say he had
been fooling with the gun" and that
he shot himself by accident.
DIR. Anderson's wife visited him at
the hospital, and afterward said she
knew of no reason why he should
have tried to kill himself. She de-
clared his home life was happy, and
showed, she believed, that he had
been injured accidentally.
Dr. Anderson SlSlei, VINO 10 llt
wife of Dr. Samuel w. Dodd, of II
Enfield avenue, Montclair, also
secuted the idea that he had at
tempted self destruction. She, too
said there was no reason why he
should want to die
Card with New York Address.
Mrs. Anderson's attention was
called to card found in the
clothing of the wounded man,
and from which it appeared at first
that he was living at $50 West Seven
ty-sixth street, New York.
Mrs. Anderson explained that the
address was that of friend of the
family and that her husband was in
the habit of stopping at that address,
whenever he would be in New York.
MY husband, who has been ailing
left the house shortly after dinner to
take a walk. There is nothing un-
usual for his having a revolver in his
possession. Both of us are fond Of

ALLIED FORCES
LOSING HEAVILY
At DARDANELLES
British War Office Admits
Losses Are Greater Than
at First Feared.
BY the nited Press.


LONDON, May 3.-That the allied
troops are losing even more heavily
than had been feared in the opera
tions to aid the fleet in reducing the
defenses of the Dardanelles was ad-
mitted at the war Office today But
emphatic denial was forthcoming OF
the Turkish German claim that the
expedition was facing annihilation.
So far as the retirement of the
French expedition from the Asiatic
side of the straits was concerned an
official statement explains that it was
ordered to do so. The French troops
who We're put ashore about Kun
Kaleh had instructions to maintain
their position only under the guns
of the fleet, officials say. and not to
attempt an advance, as the Turks
were very strongly entrenehed all
along this point, and to drive them
out would be too costly a task
1t is now understood that the
French. aided by a detachment OF
British forces, have landed further
to the south--a dispatch to the Daily
Mail says at Gheyikli-and that they
are now entrenehing under cover of
the guns of French warships.
The warships are continuing their
shelling of the Dardanelles forts, and
have succeeded in materially reduc-
ing the fire of most of them.
The Turks continue to operate their
mobile batteries at many points, which
has made the work of the mine
sweepers almost impossible.

HEAD Of LOCAL
]EWELRY FIRM
ENDS OWN LIFE
John F. Garland Commits Sui
eide Today in Branch
Brook Park.
HAD FINANCIAL TROUBLES;
SENT BULLET INTO BRAIN
Recent Actions Had Estranged
Him from His
Family.

John f. Garland, president of the
Jewelry manufacturing firm of Gar
land-Fisher Company, of 532 Null
berry street, for the past five years,
killed himself early this morning in
the northern division of Branch
Brook Park by firing a bullet from a
revolver into his head. His body was
found, while still warm. lying in the
grass beside a path by Henry Jester,
of 676 North Eighth street, a negro.
who was on his Way to work.
Garland, fifty years old. a native of
South Carolina. and the travelling
man for the firm, is said to have been
in financial difficulties personally re-
Gently and to have drank heavily in
consequence.
His wife, to whom he was mar
ried eleven years ago, said today that
he was good man in his home, and
that she knew of no financial difficult
ties, but he frequently came home
while under the influence of liquor in
the past two months and was very
unreasonable, but not abusive while
in that condition.
He spoke of committing suicide
once or twice, and when it came to
her knowledge that he carried a re-
volVer she became frightened for the
safety of her two boys one six and
the other three, and went to live
with a neighbor last Saturday. She
had not seen her husband since the
previous Sunday. but had reason to
believe that he came home late after
she had returned and went early be-
fore she arose on one or more occa-
sions during the week.
Lawyers Notice in Pocket
In his pocket was found this MORN
ing notice from a lawyer that suit
was about to be entered against him
personally for an unpaid garage bill
for an amount not specified.
When the body was found Jeater
notified Policemen Savage and Gee
CHAN, who later got into communica-
ton with Thomas A. Gilhooley, chief
of the Essex county park police.
County Physician Mckenzie ordered
the removal of the body to Mullins
morgue.
Garland is survived by his wife and
two small sons in this city and a

MRS. CARMAN
GOES TO TRIAL
A SECOND TIME
Bitter Contest Expected in Sc
lection of Jury for Free
port Murder Case.

MINEOLA, l.. l., May 3.-Without
emotion, Mrs. Florence Carman today
answered before a bar of justice an
indictment charging murder of Mrs.
Louise Bailey last June. Her husband
and her counsel were both grimly
confident as the trial opened that her
name would be cleared. Last fall the
twelve men before whom she was
tried disagreed.
A bitter contest over the selection
of a jury was expected before Su-
preme Court Justice Blackmar. 1t
was said that the prosecution would
try to eliminate all residents of the
neighborhood of the Carman home.
One of the questions to be deter
mined today was whether Mrs. Car
mans $25, 900 bail would be continued
or whether she would be committed
to Jail while the trial was in progress.
Counsel for Mrs. Carman said be-
fore the trial began that he had no
new evidence to offer and that the
number of witnesses for the defense
would be reduced by the fact that
Frank J. Farrell. the tramp who
testified against Mrs. Carman iR the
first trial, was not to be called by
the prosecution this time.
Mrs. Carman entered the court
iOOIn SlOTlly dIlST ~ o ClOCh OIL lut
arm of her husband. She was stylish
ly dressed, wearing blue tailored
suit, blue straw hat, blue face veil,
white gloves and grey topped pumps.
She was entirely at ease, and gazed
calmly around the court room.
1t was on the evening of June 30
last that Mrs. Louisa Bailey, wife OF
arespected resident of Freeport, came
to consult DR.. Carman. The woman :
husband testified at the first trial he
did not know the physician and was
not aware that his wife consulted him
The night OF the murder she was in
consultation with the physician, sew
eral other patients being in a waiting
room, when hand was poked
through a window and a shot fired
that kelled Mrs. Bailey almost in
stantly.
The prosecution at the former trial
endeavored to show Mrs. Carman as
extremely jealous of her husband.
They developed several very dam
aging admissions of Mrs. Carman's S
movements and her appearance on
the night of the shooting from Celia
Coleman. a negro maid, but the maid S
own admission that she had told va
rious versions under oath undermined
her evidence.
Attorneys for the defense have been
unusually busy during the past few
days. Yesterday there were several
important conferences. A photog-
rapher made a hurried trip to the
Carman home in the afternoon. He
was there for more than an hour
Mrs. Carman's attorneys also being
present. 1t is reported that he made
several photographs of Mrs. Carman
and hr little daughter, Elizabeth, in
positions they were in shortly pre-
ceding the time Mrs. Bailey was
shot. These photographs. it is de-
clared, will be used to refute evidence
of the State that they could hear
what was going on in the doctors
office.
William D. Bailey, husband of the
slain woman, is taking an active
part in the case. He engaged James
e. Wilkinson. New York lawyer, to
aid the States attorney. He also is
said to have retained private detec-
tives, who aided materially in the un-
earthing of new evidence.

FUR STRIKE
MAY END At
EARLY DATE
Conference Under Way Be-
tween Strikers and HoI-
lander Firm.

Although it was admitted that con-
ferences were under way between tho
strikers of A. Hollander & Son, fur
dyeing and dressing factory at las
East Kinney street, and members of
the firm with view to a possible set
tlement, it was asserted by Samuel
r. Leber, counsel for the firm, that
no agreement had been reched as yet
between the conflicting parties.
The strikers had intimated that
there would be an early settlement OF
the strike. but according to Mr.. Leber
and members of the firm the pros
poets for an immediate settlement
were not very bright
1T is true that conferences has
been held ever since the plant closed
down." said Mr.. Leber, but so far
we have not reached any agreement.
There is nothing further that we care
to say at this time
