price higher than the California pro-
ducers. In order to protect their inter

necessary for the New Jersey producers
to organize an association to market
their products at price that would be
in keeping with their value.
The day that their first shipment
arrived in New York. which was Sep
tember 0, California eggs that take two
weeks TO reach New York by freight in
car lots, were selling at 60 cents a
dozen.
THE New Jersey association eggs,
which arrive overnight in New York,
were offered at 8 cents per dozen over
the California eggs. and were gobbled
up by the dealers In Jig time. 1t is
very evident the California egg handlers
became jealous. and proceeded to wipe
the New Jersey association off their
map by advancing prices to a point
where the New Jersey eggs would not
SELL
THE New Jersey association claimed
their eggs are worth cents a dozen
more than the California eggs, and
continued to ask it, while the California
eggs were advancing"

that the cost of the examination OF ball
lots cast in the Hines-Miller Borough
Presidency primary contest will be paid.
The examination will be started at .
o'clock this morning at us Leonard
street.
Hines is going to Tammany Hall to-
night and try to take his seat at a
meeting of the executive committee, TO
which he normally would be entitled as
Tammany leader of the Eleventh Assem-
bly, district. IL Murphy and his friends
do not start ruction Hines probably
will Join the meeting. although Murphy,
of course. Is strong enough to have
Hines excluded. Whether he will do so
could not be learned yesterday. He may
decide that the best policy is to let Hines
sit in with the rest and then vote down
everything Hines suggests. or even
ignore the insurrectionist altogether.
With Hines to the meeting will go the
co-leader Of his district, Mrs. Ernestinc
f. Stewart. who also is anti Murphy.
Some of the other district leaders arc
friendly to Hines. but for fear of losing
their places on the city payroll and the
patronage which they control will stick
to Murphy as between him and Hines.
A Tammany authority says Hines
would have only two votes in the execu-
tive committee. his own and Mrs. Stew

Thomas q. Smith. Secretary or Tam
many Hall, made this statement last
night:
When the executive committee OF
seventy-two district leaders who were
elected last night meets. seventy OF them
will be solidly behind Charles F. Muir
ply. The remaining two are James J.
Hines and Mrs. Ernestine f. Stewart,
his co-leader. OF the eight districts
which Hines carried in the primary,
seven have elected pro-Murphy leaders.
The only anti-Murphy district is that
OF Hines.
"An analysis OF the Hines votes In
the primary shows that the vote for
Hines was not abnormal, and did not
reflect an opposition to Mr.. Murphy's
dddership. Hines got 20.167 votes out
