ASK FOR WRIT
OF CERTIORARI
Supreme Court Reserves Decl-
sion OF Writ TO Review
Appointment

On Thursday, May 18th, at Trenton
the Supreme Court heard argument
and reserved decision upon the applica-
ton of Lester w. Smith, OF Wild
wood, for q writ Of certiorari to review
the action of Supreme Court Justice
Black in designating James Russell
Carlow, of Camden, TO serve as
prosecutor ofthis county. Smith was
represented by former Judge Harrison
H Voorhees, and John Harris, of Cam
den. Attorney General Westcott and
Josiah Stryker, his assistant, repre-
scented Prosecutor Carrow
Mr.. Voorhees, brought to the Courts
attention the suing out of another writ
of certiorari to review the action of
Justice Black in amending an indict-
ment for malfeasance brought against
Smith, accused of taking graft for pro.
lection to disorderly houses. The
court took this matter under advise
ment also.
1t was argued by counsel for Smith
that Justi e Black was without pow
er to appoint Carrow because his nom-
ination had been sent to the Senate by
Governor Fielder for a full term, but
had faile1 of confirmation. ATTORNEY
General Westcott took the position
that the acton of the Court was proper,
siace Carlow was not appointed as
prosecutor of the county, but merely
designated to care for the administra.
ton of justice for the April term OF
Court.
Since the above was put in type the
Supreme Court has rendered a deci.
sion dismissing the litigation. Mr.
Carrow is Still pros cutor of Cape May
county.

Our Landscape Gardeners

report that the identifying of
lawns, especially seeding grass and
planting hydrangeas, exceeds that
of any time in past years. The use
of top soil, Shoemaker's Patent
Lawn Fertilizer and a compost
made of New York stable manure
and high grade top-soil, secures best
results and are largely used by our
florists and gardeners. This is the
time to give attention to your

having this work done are referred

S|X NEW HAVEN MEN NUT GUILTY
 F|VE NJ VERDICT

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Six of the eleven former directors of the New York, New Hoven and Hartford rail- road, charged by the government with criminal violation of the Sher- man antitrust law, were found not guilty late today by the jury that for nearly three months has been trying the case. The jury disagreed on the five others.
 Those acquitted were D. Newton Barney, Pennington, Conn; Robert W. Taft, Providence, R. l.. James S. Hemingway, A. Heaton Robertson and Frederick F. Brewster, New Ha- ven. and Henry K. McCharg, Stam- ford, Conn.
 Those on whom the jury disagreed were William Rockefeller New York Charles F. Brooker, Ansonia. Conn.,; Charles NJ. Pratt, Brooklyn; Lewis i Cass Ledyard. New York, and Ed ward D. Robbins. New Haven The verdict was returned at 4:30 o'clock this afternoon after fifty-one i hours of deliberation, and the jury
 was discharged. The first vote on ! tllt i've Ue1elludillS upOl WHICH lue 1 jurors could not agree stood to 4 for acquittal.
 1 R. L. Batts. chief counsel for the I government, annSunced that he would
 move for a new trial of these five. 1 This will be done, he said, before any effor. will be made to try the six | other former directors of the road
 that were indicted but who obtained 1 the right to be tried separately.
 The jurors did not reach their yer
 dict until after they had reported
 to Judge Hunt earlier in the day that they could not agree. Up to that time-noon-they had been deliber-
 ating with a view to bringing in a
 verdict on the guilt or innocence of the defendants collectively. The court then instructed them to make | further efforts to concur, and that if 1 they could not agree upon all, to try and reach a decision on some. The
 vote of the question of all. at that
 time also stood to 4 for acquittal
 it was learned.
 On returning to the jury room the
 jurors renewed their discussion with
 the courts instructions in mind, and
 unanimously eliminated the six de-
 fendants that were acquitted.

 He was born at Waukegan, H., and spent his boyhood days there. Later he went to Kansas City. where he amassed quite a fortune in the hotel and restaurant business. He came to Phoenix twenty years ago and at once entered into the real estate business, quickly establishing a large clientele which increased with the years. He has otherwise, been active in the promotion and devel opment of Phoenix enterprises. He took an active part in demo- cratic politics and for six years represented his ward in the city council and served a part of one term as acting mayor. The increas- , ing demands of his business however, compelled him to give it all his at | tention so that in his later years he | has taken only such an interest in public affairs as a good citizen should i take. His latest service was as 1 member of the commission appointed three years ago by Governor Hunt to l select site for the removal of the | industrial school.
 He was a member of various socia

 LONDON, Jan 9.-The remaining positions held by the allies of Galli- poll Peninsula have now been aban doned with the wounding of only one man among the British and French according to a British official state ment issued tonight.
 This news has been expected for several days by the keener observers of the Near Eastern campaign, for the retirement of the troops from Anzac and Suvla bay three weeks ago left no strategic advantage to the retention of the tip of the Peninsula.
 Nevertheless. the news wia be re- ceived with a pang of regret by the people of the British Isles, as well as the Colonies.
 Renewed activity of various kinds noted by the Turkish official com munications in the past few days, has presumably been in the nature of preparations for the final act of the Dardanelles tragedy. Tonight's Turkish official statement covering the period from Thursday to Satur- day. records the increasing effective ness of endorsements of the Turk ish batteries which have been draw ing in and concentrating on the al- lies remaining positions.
 Another pang to the British public will be caused by the announcement of the loss of the battleship King 1 Edward VII, which has been blowr up by a mine The brief officia statement on this subject does not reveal the scene of the action and | merely says that the disaster occurred | in a heavy sea, despite which the 1 entire crew was saved before the ship went down.
 The King Edward VII represented ] an investment of nearly { G1,600,00O { and was one of the finest of thu last class of re-dreadnaughts, corre spending in general to the American ships of the New Jersey and Ne
 braska type, and was only slight! older than the Natal, which was sunl by an internal explosion about Weel ago

 PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 10.-At least eight persons are reported to have been killed in an explosion at the plant of the Dupont Pow der Company at Carney's PoInt. early today. The steamer Long Beach, which was just leaving it's docks, was blown partly out of the water. None of the passengers, however, are believed to have been hurt. The force of the explosion was so great that it was heard in this city, 25 miles distant.
 Later reports said that 13 had been killed and seven severely burned: that the blast was caused by outside influences and that two men had been arrested. As all wire communication to Carney's Point was cut off by the explosion none of these reports could be confirmed.
 The explosion occurred in the Boscher plant mill, where the finest grades of smokeless powder are prepared for shipment. It happened shortly after the force of workers had changed at mid night.
 According to an empIoye who witnessed the explosion there were only six persons killed and about four injured. The explosion, he said, occurred in No. 2 wet house of plant No. 2 and that it was the belief among the men that it had been caused by outside influences. Reports that two men with dyna- mite and nitrogIycerine in their possession had been arrested could not be confirmed.
 Wire communication at Carney's Point was completely cut off by the explosion and officials of the Dupont company in Wilmington declared that they had absolutely no advices beyond the fact that there had been an expiosior,

LONDON, Jan. 9.-Suffragettes held a demonstration in Hyde Park today ito protest against the compul- sion bill. Addresses were made by numerous speakers, women and men, from five platforms, around which large crowds were gathered.
 There was considerable heckling of the speakers by the crowd and soon after the beginning of the suffragette demonstration, a group of men wear ing Derby armlets organized a counter meeting nearby, where speeches in favor of compulsion lasted as long as the suffragette speakers held out.
 The crowds were in good humor and the meetings broke up without any violence after the suffragettes had passed resolution against conscrip- tion and industrial compulsion and de- manding a more democratic form of government in which the women shall have vote.
