LACK OF EVIDENCE
IN GULFL|GHT CASE
Three Crossing on AeropIane
That Bombarded U. S. Ship
Gushing, is Report.

Special By United Press Wire.
Washington, May 6.-The aero
plane which bombarded the American
steamship Cushing off the Dutch
coast had three crosses painted on
its under side, according to reports
of the incident received at the state
department from Consul Liscoe at
Rotterdam today. Inasmuch as it is
understood the Germans have lately
been decorating their aeroplanes with
presentations of the iron cross
and none of the belligerents air
craft are known to have similar
markings it was considered an i'm
portant piece of evidence had been
secured. The report contained no
other new evidence.
The conviction was growing
among other state department Off
cials that the truth about the Gull
fight incident may never be known.
The department has statements from
the vessels officers suggesting it was
torpedoed by a German submarine,
but the evidence is purely circum-
stantial and inconclusive. 1t was
pointed out that even if true il can
be corroborated only by German
foreign Office, which could hardly
be expected to prove case against
the kaiser. Without more evidence
than is at hand at present experts
say it will be difficult for this govern
ment to proceed automatically

When opportunity was afforded
near the conclusion of the council
meeting, Division Agent H. P. Chand-
ler,, of the Public Service Electric
Company, submitted some figures to
show the Public Service cost of

neers specifications. They were as
follows: $50 600 candlepower

600 candlepower lamps at $78.75,

$30.29: s1,332.76; total $28,459.01;
minus two and half per cent for a

Chandler also reported that the con-
pany would agree to put all wires
underground on Smith street, from
the Central railroad tracks to High
street, and on State street, from Mar
ket street to Broad street during the
first year of the contract and would
spend during the term of the five
year contract the sum of $150,000
for underground service in the city.
A further report submitted by Mr..
Chandler was as follows: To get
the kilowatt hour estimated, forty
six per cent, of our customers must
be taken away. Connected load, 420
kilowatts. The same percentage OF
customers would require 306 custom

would require on peak 420 kilowatts
for lighting 81 kilowatt for public
buildings, 100 kilowatts estimated
power, making total of SIT kilo-
watts, which in addition of 1875
kilowatts for street lighting would
make a total of 702 as against 400

Serious Set back for Defense

Special by United Press Wire.
Syracuse, n Y, May 6:-Legal
barriers in the Barnes
libel trial were raised today against
testimony of alleged vice and graft
in Albany. Justice Andrews exclud-
ed such testimony desired by the
Roosevelt side The ruling was re-
garded as serious setback for the
defense The ruling preceded five
minute appearance Of the colonel on
the witness stand. His farewell ap-
pearance as a witness was perfume
tory and cut short by destinations OF
Barnes's lawyers to cross examine.
81 don't care to have anything
further to do with Colonel Roose-
velt," said WINS, bringing out the
coloners broadest smile with a full
view of his teeth and no resentment.
Justice Andrews's ruling followed a
vigorous effort of Roosevelt's lawyers
to get in evidence of Albany condi-
tions. The lawyers contended that
Roosevelt's alleged libel charged
Barnes with corruption and they
should be allowed to prove that
Roosevelt was told Barnes was a
party to alleged Albany graft by hay-
ing machine workers employed III
gambling houses. That the libel
statement referred solely to state and
not local corruption was Justice An
drews's decision. He said any facts
Roosevelt had of local Albany affairs
were immaterial.
The ruling shut out vast qHantl-
ty of testimony.

plant bonds to A. B. Leach II Com
pany and J. D. Everitt & Company
was deferred last night until next
Tuesday night. This step was taken
to enable the city officials to nego-
tfate further with the prospective

resell to the city in event the prop
osition should not materialize. The
bond company representatives here
yesterday informed the city officials
that the opportunity for the city to
sell to them was open until Wednes-
day, May IL, as after that date the
bonds would only be acceptable sub
ject to market conditions. The sink
ing of a. United States vessel by a
European submarine has caused un-
easiness in the money market, 1t was
declared, and the bond buyers are

Mayor to Meet with Public
Spirited Citizens Tomorrow
Night at the City Hall.
WHAT DOES PUBLIC WANT?
Mayor Would be Pleased to
Have Acceptance Flights to
Eclipse Former Occasions.

Mayor Ferd Garretson has begun
to consider plans for the next cele-
bration to be held on the Fourth Of
July which will be observed on
Monday, July 5, this year. He has
called for a preliminary meeting to
be held at 8 o'clock tomorrow
night in the council chamber at city
hall. He will then endeavor to as
certain whether the public wants to
continue the safe and sane method of
celebration, or wants an open dem
onstration, and he will listen to sug-
gestions in the way of innovations
and all kinds of schemes for the best
method of celebrating on the joyous
occasion. While the mayor has sent
written invitations to all mem mbers Of
last years committee, the public in
general can attend. The meeting will
be an open one, at which anyone
may discuss the Fourth of July cell
ebration.
Following this meeting Mayor
Garretson will take steps to organ
ize a general Fourth of July cele-
bration committee. He believes that
the public will not want to divert
from the modern means of celebrat-
ing, which is by the safe and sane
method. 1t is therefore believed that
preparations for celebrating in the
modern way on the next Fourth of
July will be started tomorrow
night. Suggestions will be made and
the mayor states that he would be
pleased to receive suggestions for
celebrating Programs of past re-
cent years have pleased, but he be-
lieves that new schemes would add
interest. He would be pleased to
have some aercplane fights as part
of the celebration, but they will be
| too expensive, unless an aviator is
found nearby who will agree to ex-
hibit, as was done few years ago
when the mayor established the first
aerial mail route In New Jersey. 1t
was between this city and South AM
boy.
It is the endeavor of Mayor Gar
lretson to conduct a celebration this
| year which will eclipse those Of past
recent years 1t Is his aim to have
a program prepared which will
lplease the entire population and
serve to draw people TO the city
from nearby places. Because of the
fact that the Fourth" VIII be cele-
brated on July this year, the exec
lutiye's plan for opening up the pro-
gram with an illuminated auto pa
rade or something of that sort the
night before, has been deferred. He
believes that there is sufficiently
large number of automobiles in the
city to make an attractive parade.
more widespread and to have new
blood injected into the celebration
scheme this year, the mayor would
| like to see a representative from eT-
cry organization in the city partici-
pate as a member of the Fourth OF
July committee.
