Listed for Hearing Be-
fore Justice Berger. '-'-

The case against Michael Tevoli
charged with the murder of Benjamin
Anderson in this city, last year will be
moved before Justice Bergen on Mon
day. April 1, and will be tried by
jury composed of members of the pres
ent petit jury panel. Tevoli' was ar
rested in New Haven on January 81
and brought to this state charged with
the murder of Anderson, who lived at
500 Donald avenue, on April IL last
year.
Anderson was shot while working on
a building in Neville street here, Tev-
oil having been a mason's helper. He
made good his escape and was not
heard of until word was received in
January Of his arrest in New Haven.

ten confession of his killing Anderson.

Tevoli, was found in the mans trunk
in New Haven. He was brought to
biis state and placed in the Union coun-
ty Jail by Detective Richard Peltier-

the New Brunswick man, charged with
the murder of his wife -.-Fa r. --
Prosecutor Joseph e. Stricken has
obtained statements from some of the
men now In custody awaiting trial for
the murder of. Smith which are said
to be in the nature of confessions. BY
the provisions of piece of legislation
enacted by the New Jersey State Legis-
lature of 1917, defendants charged
with murder in this state may, for the
first time, plead non vult and If the
plea be accepted, sentence shall be
imprisonment at hard labor for life or
the same as that imposed upon con-
viction of murder in the second degree.
1t is said that some of the defendants
in the Smith case may take advantage
of this law. Acceptance of a non vult
plea ordinarily rests with the pre.lding
judge, who in this case will be Su-
preme Court Justice James ]. Bergen.
Prosecutor Stricken has said that he
is uncertain how Justice Bergen will
construe the statute there being a
doubt as to whether or not it becomes
obligatory with the court to permit
the plea being entered.
Prosecutor Stricken has stated that
he would strenuously, oppose accept
ance of non vult pleas. believing that
the state has a conclusive case to prove
first degree murder and one which
would warrant infliction of the death
penalty.

Thus far this government has gone
no further than to express its views
on the proposed Intervention as be-
ing unnecessary at present and con-
|, trary to the ideals of the Allies.
There is no disposition here to dis
trust the Japanese motive or lack of
confidence in her ability to deliver the
goods in a way satisfactory to the
Allies. Balfour's views on this point
square with this government.
Officials here, however. are inclined
to believe the overthrow of the car

that except for Immediate future, the
