'"There amt man living that could
think up lie like that, not sudden"
murmured the officer, and turned to
resume his beet, While Mr.. Randolph
promptly hit the mat in the hope of
catching up with Elysium. He slept:
he slept too deep for dreams, and was
beyond the reach of the call of any
motorhorn when Mr. Milyuns' town
car tried to shoe him along at eight
thirty of a bright morning.
Once more was Mr. Randolph
dragged by main force TO wakefulness.

"None of yours, Thomas, said Rob

''Get me a bit of paper and pencil"
The chauffeur discovered the re-
Quired articles in Mr.. Milyuns' car,
handed them over, and curiously
watched Mr. Randolph write his note
to the effect that Miss Imogene Pa
meIa Thornton would receive her legal
representative at Mr. Randolph's
rooms in Fifty-ninth street between
nine and ten. It was added that the
said rooms, upon which rent had been
paid to the end of the quarter, and all
they contained, including the man,
Tom1inson, were at the perpetual dis
position Of the said Miss t.
.Now, Thomas" said Mr.. Randolph,
"you take this in to the old man him

empty cab brought it. If you say an
other word I'll have you up at the
union for losing me my job, and I'll
lick the stufings out of you besides.

"Sure thing, Mr.. Randolph" said
Thomas. leave it to me to help you
make trouble whenever you feel like

AS soon as the man had entered the
house, Mr.. Randolph started his cab

territory. Belgium-Will cooperate

sition" from that quarter.
While the German cabinet has not
yet indicated the nature of its reply
to the reparation commissions de-
mand that the German gold reserve
be transferred to some point in the
occupied zone, President Havenstein
of the Reischband and the financial
writer's summarily reject the propo-
sition. They take the ground that the
gold is not only the property of a pri-
vate bank, but that its removal from
Berlin under the conditions named
would bring on collapse of the Ger
man currency at home and abroad.
and would promptly result in an ad-
vance of all commodities to fabulous
prices.
President Havestein declares that
serious consideration of the proposi-
ton would be mere waste of time
and doubts whether any government
could be found in Germany which
would accede to the entente's demand.

TO CHANGE PANAMA RULES
Plan to Reduce Pay and Privileges Of
Men Employed in Zone.

YRashington.-Wide-spread changes
in the methods of administering the
Panama Canal Zone by the war de-
partment, particularly as regards the
pay, privileges and allowances of the
civil establishment, are expected tG
follow visit to the zone to be made
known soon by Secretary Weeks. The
war secretary announced that as soon
as he could spare the time he would
go there with the view of gathering
data on which to base a reorganization
of the entire method of administra
tion, which, he declared, is now con
Quoted extravagantly.
Employees of the canal zone re
ceive much higher pay than govern
ment employees in the United States
proper, Mr.. Weeks said, and in add
tion are allowed sixty days leave a
year, free quarters, reduced transpor-
tation to and from the United States,
the privilege Of buying all commodi-
ties at cost from the government
'commisaries. and other requisites.
These inducements were originally
offered when the United States went
into Panama to build the canal, Sec
retary Weeks declared, because of the
unhealthy climate.
Il am confident" said the secre-
tary, that decided change could be
made in the manner of conducting
affairs in the canal zone with great
savings to the government"
The present cost of administration
of the canal zone, exclusive Of the
military forces, is about 100000
month.

SENATE FOR COLOMBIA PACT
U. S. TO PAY S25,OO0,OOO
TO COLOMBIA REPUBLIC
This is yet to Be Accepted and APP.
proved BY South Americans
It is Understood.

Washington.-The Columbia treaty,
growing out of the partitioning Of
Panama, was ratified by the senate.
1t provides for the payment by the
United States of $25,OOO,OOO to the
South American republic, but has yet
to be approved by the Columbia as
sembly. The vote was So to 10.
The proposal of Senator Poindexter
to reduce the payment to Columbia
from $25,OOO,OOO to S15.OOO,OOO, was
rejected 6S to %.
Senator Borah, republican, Idaho,
was defeated 49 to S9, in an attempt
to insert a clause declaring that pro-
visions of the treaty could not be
taken as implying that the United
States aided in the Panaman revolt
or violated any treaty with Colombia.
The senate then voted down with
chorus of noes amendments by Sen
ator Ransdell liberalizing the treaty's
preamble, providing that Colombia
construct no canal through her ter
ritory without the consent of the
United States.
Pact is Compromise.
The Colombian treaty grew out of
the charge that the United States had
Wronged Colombia in the partition of
Panama. 1t was one thing in Sc
quence of many connected with the
building of the Panama canal, and
what was characterized by it's pro-
ponents the taking of the isthmus by
Theodore Roosevelt while congress de-
bated."
Briefly stated, those who urged rat
ification of the treaty charged that
when Panama revolted from Colombo
an rule, American naval forces pre-
vented Colombia from recovering her
lost territory.
Those who opposed ratification Of
the treaty charged that Colombia had
long been engaged in trying to "hold
up" the United States for a large sum
of money for a canal route; that Pan
anna, once an Independent state, re-
Volted from Colombian rule for just
cause and that the presence of Ameri-
can naval forces had nothing to do
with the failure Of Colombia to force
Panama back into her state.

$1,000 SALARY
FOR TEACHERS
$500 Permanent Raise With
Bonus Done Away With,
School Board Decides

Beginning September /, 1922, the
minimum teachers salary in Perth
Amboy will be $1,000 where it had
been $1,000 as the result of an ac-
ton taken by the Board of Educa-
ton at special meeting called
Friday.
This development has come about
through the efforts of the city teach
ers to have the 5000 bonus which
has been affixed to their salaries
temporarily made part of the per-
manent salary. The bonus was
granted here a year ago last Sep
tember and runs out in June or
1922. not to be renewed according TO
the law. The minimum teachers
who had been getting the salary OF
$1,000 and the bonus of 5000 would
thus receive only the straight $1,000
if the bonus were not affixed to the
salary.
A short time ago it was decided
at a meeting of the Perth Amboy
Teachers Association that a request
be made that the bonus become a
part of the salary, which move was
considered favorably by the board a
few nights ago. The teachers viii
next September receive the same
amount as they now get except that
the 5000 extra is permanent. While
a bonus can be taken away, once a
salary is fixed it cannot be cut.
The maximum in Perth Amboy
after next September will be S1,70O.

BOY s LEG GUT
OFF IN CRASH
Alfred Faggioni, of This City,
Seriously Hurt on Bridge
Yesterday

Alfred Faggioni, ten years old,
whose home is at $50 Market street,
had his left leg severed below the
knee. and Bernard Schenk. 46 years
of age, of Hoboken, received several
severe decorations above the eyes as
the result of an automobile crash
that happened on the county bridge
Yesterday afternoon when two ma
chimes came together near the draw
bridge on the Perth Amboy side.
The Faggioni child. accompanied
by a friend. Walter Olson, If lOS
Augusta street. South Amboy, were
riding over to South Amboy in the
automobile of Alex Weiss, who lives
at 527 Main street. in that CITY,
Weiss was approaching the draw
bridge when hs saw another car
coming north. running in the car
tracks. AS the car came on II was
evident that the driver was having
difficulty in getting the wheels out oil
the tracks.
With the driver unable to extri-
cate his machine Weiss saw tnat
there was not sufficient room Tor the
passage of the two cars and so ne
swerved the wheel sharply to the
left in an effort to avoid the crash.
Before he got his machine clear,
however, the approaching auto
crashed into the side of Weiss car
according to the report of Motorcycle
officer Frank Seiboth. whs investl-
gated the occurrence.
Young Faggioni was sitting in the
automobile witt. mis- legs hanging
out over the side and the front OF
the other car struck with such force
as 70 completely sever the left leg
and cause a compound fracture or
the right. Although the leg was cut
off below the knee it was found
necessary az the city hospital after
ward to amputate the member above
the knee, due TO the serious mang-
ling OF the flesh.
The driver of the second car was
Arthur Schenk, son of Bernard
Schenk, who was cut above the eye
by the flying glass from. the shat
tered windshield. In the Schenk
car was Mrs. Schenk who escaped
without injury as did the SON who
was driving.
The two injured persons were
taken TO the city hospital where
they were treated by DR.. John G.
Wilson. In the case Of the boy it
was found necessary to operate inn
mediately.
Both Weiss and Schenk were ar
rested by Motorcycle Officer Frank
Seiboth and Patrolman Michael
Fitzpatrick, who were detailed to
the scene of the accident TO conduct
an inquiry. When arraigned before
Recorder Pickersgill shortly after
ward the case was adjourned until
Saturday night, December IL.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. 2S.-
The recount of the votes cast
at the Perth Anboy general election
of Richard J. Calvin Democrat, and
John N. Wester. Republican, candi-
dates for alderman-at-large, con-
tinued here today indications being
that Wester had made slight gain
in the second ward but not enough
to discount the gains of Calvin in
the sixth ward last week. The first
and second polls of the second ward
were counted on Saturday.
The original vote in the first poll
of the second ward gave Calvin 1877
and Wester 266 votes. The recount
figures show Calvin with 1877 and
one referred and Wester with 262
and four referred. Thus if the re-
ferred votes are all allowed neither
candidate will gain vote but If
none of the referred ballots are
counted Wester will have lost three.
1t is thought the referred ballots
going in this poll.
In the second poll of the second
ward Calvin polled 221 votes and
Wester 1876. The recount figures
gave Calvin 219 with two referred
and Wester 196 with three referred.
Here Calvin lost two in actual num-
bers, not taking into consideration
the referred ballots. If the referred
ballots are allowed Wester will pick
up another vote.
The County Election Board this
morning commenced to count the

third poll of the second ward. The
original figures in this poll gave Gal
win 213 and Wester 113.
Many of the ballots found in the
second ward boxes contained no
vote for either Calvin or <Wester.
The squares before the names of
the two aldermen-at large candi-
dates were blank in many cases.
Members of board this morning
stated they expected to complete
the Perth Amboy recount this week
in order that they might start the
Roosevelt recount next Monday.
The third poll of the second ward
was completed shortly after noon.
the recount figures being: Calvin
200 with five referred and Wester
100 with five referred. Both OF
these figures were four less than the
original count and as both had the
same number of ballots referred
neither gained a vote on the other
in this poll.
The total vote for the three polls
of the second ward originally was:
Calvin 621 and Wester SIS, diner
ence of forty-six votes. The recount
total showed Calvin with 615 and
Wester with 56S, difference or
forty-seven votes. This gives Gal
win an increase of one vote by actual
count in the second ward but West
er has twelve ballots referred as
compared to Galvin's eight. If
these referred ballots are allowed
Wester will make a net gain OF
three votes in the ward.
