NEW YORK April 16-Manhat-

shade was the dominant note in the
color medley that filled brilliant
Fifth Avenue from Central Park
down 70 the shadow of the Washing

parade was a veritable crescendO,
with the pleasingly soft periwinkle
blue everywhere in dominance. There
was no group complete without it,:
its choice was confined TO no one age
or class or even complexion. Occa-
sional creations of one or the other
SON bre hues were invariably light
ened-on the hat. the bodice or the
skirt-with touch of the shade that
seemingly claims Miladys sole ale

The parade was in progress most
of the way. but il did not really

the avenue dismissed their morning
congregations shortly after noon. A
kindly providence did it's bit in pro-

ARREST 3 MORE
IN VOTE PROBE
Push Action in Essex and
Hudson County Fraud
Charges

TRENTON, Nov. 3-Men in large
numbers from Hudson and Essex
counties came here today to appear
before the United States grand jury
in answer to subpoenas served upon
them late last night by Department
of Justice agents.
The jurymen are sitting here and
conducting a further investigation
into alleged election registration
frauds in the two large northern
counties. One particular group of
sixteen men arrived from the Nor
wood House. a boarding place of so
Hudson Place, Hoboken. They were
represented by William ]. Cava-
naugh, assistant corporation coun-
sci of that city. Although none OF
these men had been called up to
early afternoon, Mr.. Cavanaugh had
a conference with United States Dis
trict Attorney Walter g. Whine.
during which he demanded the
privilege of being. present in the
jury room when. the men were in
terrogated. The district attorney re-
fused such permission, however. and
thereupon Mr.. Cavanaugh advised
his clients not to answer any ques-
tions propounded until such a time
that he was admitted.
This is an outrage" declared
Mr.. Cavanaugh, discussing the situ-
alton. He described the men as the
ordinary class along the Hoboken
docks hardly able to exist with their
present salaries. He pointed out
two that were brought to the city in
a sickly condition and still another
that was stone blind.
TRENTON. Nov. 3-Three more
arrests were made yesterday as the
result of the investigation being
made by the United States grand
jury into alleged frauds III Essex
and Hudson counties.
The United Staste grand jury re-
convened here today to continue its

QUIET RE|CNS
IN MURDER CASE
Mott Not Coming Until Mon
day--No Arrests Likely
Over Weekend, Report

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. g.
County authorities here seemed
amused today over the reports pub
,lished by some newspapers that war
rants had been made out for a man
and woman. suspected of having
taken part in the double murder OF
Rev. Edward W. Hall and his choir
leader, Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Mills.
These investigators pointed out that
no arrests will be made until evil
dence in the case has been present.
ed to the Somerset county grand
pury and one indictment or more
has been returned.
Prosecutor Wilbur A. Mott has an
nounced that no arrest will be made
in the case until the grand jury has
found a true bill against the ac-
cused. This leads up TO the question
of when the grand jury will act.
Prosecutor Azariah Beekman, Of
Somerset county, said this week that
the jury would take up the case next
week, but it now seems doubtful if
the jury will take up the murder case
until after election.
Prosecutor Mott was expected to
arrive here today to conduct fur
ther Interrogation of witnesses,
but word was received at neon that
he would not be in New Brunswick
today, tomorrow or Sunday, but that
he would likely be here Monday.
Detective Mason, chief investigator,
arrived ut noon, but he was not ex-
pected to summon any witnesses in
the case for examination this after
noon.
The prospects this afternoon were
for q1iet week end as far as fur
ther developments in the murder
case were concerned. Detective
Ferd A. David and members of the
state police under Sergeant Lamb
were in the prosecutors Office this
morning, but apparently had no
particular Investigations to make to
day.
An effort was made this morning
to learn from the officials closely
connected with the case If there
was any truth to the report that an
other woman witness had been
found whose testimony corrobrates
the story of Mrs. Jane Gibson, wo-
man farmer. who claims to have
been an eve witness TO the murder.
The authorities would not admit
that any such person had been To-
Gated, neither would they Geny it.
1t could not be learned to what ex-
tent this new witness testimony
corrobo-ates that of Mrs. Gibson.
