REBUKES
JURORS
Men Who Refused to Indict Vi
olators of Excise Law Are
Scored From Bench.
FOREMAN'S SPIRITED REPLY
Unable to Get Gambling Evidence
Which Prosecutor Caused to Be
Published In Newspapers
of .w Jersey.
ATLANTIC CITY. N. Aug. 28. The
action of Governor Tort In threatening
to fend troop Into this famous resort
to enforce the state liquor laws unless
the people of Atlantic City observe. the
law caused a sensation today among the
residents and Summer visitors. An
other sensation was sprung at Mays
.Landing, the county seat of Atlantic
County, when the grand Jury absolutely
refused to obey the instructions of the
'court to return Indictments against ex
cise violators. Supreme Court Justice
Thomas W. Trenchard. who had been re
quested by Governor Fort to sit with the
County Judge, was so Incensed at the
action of the grand Jury that he In
stantly discharged It with a severe rep
rimand.
The Governor's proclamation wii not
wholly unexpected, as there had been
rumors for days that he would resort to
the calling out of the militia. If neces
sary, to enforce the excise laws.
Assistant Attorney-General Gaskill
who is here assisting Prosecutor Golden-
burg in the excise cases, says the Gov
ernor can call out the troops, although
It is an unusual proceeding. The Gov
ernor's power to declare martial law, he
says, cannot be questioned. Sheriff
Johnson of Atlantic County, Mayor Storey
of Atlantic City, and County Prose
cutor Goldenburg tonight refused to dla
cuss the situation.
Last Sunday the saloons and cafes.
with but few exceptions: conducted busi
ness as usual. .
When the grand Jury came into court
today Justice Trenchard addressed It as
follows:
"I understand that all cases have been
presented to you. I have sent for you
In order that the clerk may take the In
dictments."
When asked by the clerk If the Jury
had any indictments to present, Joseph
W. Salus. the foreman of the Jury, said
that It had not at this time and. that It
had not considered all the cases pre
sented.
Justice Trenchard then said that the
court would ait until Indictments were
found In the excise cases, and the Jury
retired. This caused a mild sensation
as It 'Indicated that the court Intended
to bring matters to a head.
The Jurors returned late In the after
noon and presented three Indictments.
two against an alleged gambling-house
and one against a man who is charged
with selling obscene postal cards. Jus
tic Trenchard read the bills of Indict
ment and finally threw them on his desk
and said:
"I notice that you have not presented
an' indictment for the illegal sale of
liquor on Sunday. The Assistant Attor
ney-General of the atate and the Prose
cutor of the county have Informed the
court that they have placed before the
Jury evidence which Justifies indictments
In such cases. As no Indictments have
been found, it seems to be an Indication
that this grand Jury has failed In the
performance of Its duty. The court !s
forced to say that, considering the in
structions of the court, the state of the
law a:d the evidence presented, you
grand Ju: its have failed In the perform
ance o! you- d'.-iy and have violated
your ofctl.s oi -C1ce to the State of New
Je.?r Ys aie discharged, for the
term.'.".
Foremen t.. Instantly aro?3 and
took exception :o the remarks of the
court.
"As grand Jurors we feel no responsi
bility. We are willing to stand before
God and say that we feel that we have
performed our duty and have not vio
lated our oaths. -We represent the will
of the people of Atlantic County. We
feel that we are supreme and without
affront: we feel that no person, however
clothed with power or office, has a right
to rebuke us in this manner. We, as
representatives of Atlantic County, rep
resenting , I55.COO.OOO of propery. do not
intend that the deliberations of this Jury
shall be made political capital. We want
nothing concealed. We want a spade
called a spade. We grand Jurors tried
with all our might to have presented
before us gambling evidence which the
Prosecutor of the county caused- to be
published in the newspapers, but we did
not get it. At every turn we were throt
tled as grand jurors."
Continuing he said that they had 'been
told that unless they brought Indict
ments In excise cases no evidence of
gambling would be presented to them.
"On these grounds." he said, "we re
served the right in the. final analysis
here to state that we have not been
fairly treated in thus being publicly
branded."
CORRUPT .VXD XOT ASHAMED
Atlantic City Citizens Prefer Wide
Open Town.
ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Aug. 2S.
Governor Fort's proclamation created a
sensation here. His drastic attitude on
violations of the law was the topic of
conversation everywhere.
For two or more years the Citizens'
League has been active in obtaining evi
dence against alleged lawbreakers. This
evidence, according to the league, haa
been Ignored by the various grand Juries
It is the custom for the grand Jury to
meet in the Fall, after the Summer pea
son is over, and act on the cases pre
sented. The members of the Jury usu
ally make no secret of their lack of
sympathy with efforts to curtail the
privileges of pleasure-seekers who fre
quent the resort. Joe Salus, foreman
of the present grand Jury, recently de
clared in an interview that although he
was a teetotaller, he favored an open
Sunday because the business Interests
and the patrons desired It. This is prac
tically the sentiment of all the city and
county officials, with the exception of
County Prosecutor Goldburg. who re
cently created a sensation by publishing
a list of gambling houses and denouncing
the city officials for failing to enforce
the law.
The term of Mayor Franklin Stoy la
about to expire and there haa been a
hot fight over his renomination. Re
cent!) it was announced that thh opposi
tion had In a measure subsided and that
Mr. Stoy would probably be renominated.
Last Sunday, after, an unsually large
number of people had participated In the
pleasures of the resort, Mayor Stoy de
clared that It had been a great day for
Atlantic City and pointed proudly to
the general good order which prevailed.

WELL-KNOWN NEW TORK PAS
TOR DIES IN MAINE.
Was Criticised by Presbyterian
Classis Because of His Liberal
Views Expressed in Pulpit.
NEW YORK. Aug. 28. Dr. Donald
Sage Mackay. pastor of the Collegiate
Church of St. Nicholas, of this city, died
in Portland, Me., yesterday.
Dr. McKay was one of the best-known
clergymen of this city. The classis of
Iowa. . in 1905, accused Dr. Mackay of
heresy because of an article he had pub
lished containing the substance of a
sermon In which the clergyman gave
reasons for the apparent growing Ina
bility to believe In a personal God. The
matter to which the Iowa ministers ob
jected was a criticism made by Dr.
Mackay, of the Presbyterian -Chruch in
Scotland, where he said: -
'Eleven hundred ministers have been
rendered legally churchless and homeless
and property of Jo5.000.000 taken from
the church they represent io order to
satisfy the legal demands of a church
of Just 24 ministers whose fundamental
belief Is limited salvation, that God only
saves the elect, and that only to the
elect can the offer of salvation be made."
In answering the charges of the Iowa
classis Dr. Mackay said:
"If the Iowa classis indorses that type
of theology as the theology of the Re
formed Church In America today, I am
ready to step out of the pulpit tomor
row. I would rather break stones by
the roadside than preach such a carica
ture of the love of God."
President Roosevelt, when In New
York, attended services In Dr. Mackay'a
church and Miss Helen Gould and Mrs.
Russell Sage are members' of It.

Brooklyn Club Starts Campaign on
Bridge Location.
The Brooklyn Republican and Im
provement Club at its meeting Thursday
night reaffirmed its approval of East
Mill and Secondhand Clay and Front
streets as the best site for a bridge to
replace the one at Madison street. The
club also appointed a committee to
raise money for a campaign in favor
of that location. A. Van Hoomissen,
so far, has led the efforts for a change
and paid all expenses out of his own
pocket. Mr. Van Hoomissen, Z. Bevln
and L. S. ,Daue were appointed on the
finance committee. The next move
will be to seek the repeal of the
$450,000 appropriation and ask for a
larger appropriation for the bridge at
the neTV location.
There was extended discussion of the
bridge question at the meeting. Chair
man A. L. Keenan eliminated person
alities early In the discussion by cau
tioning the speakers that they must
refrain from such references. Mr. Van
Hoomissen opened the debate and was
followed by M. G. Griffin, ' the latter
speaking for the present location. City
Treasurer Werleln was present and
spoke at some length on the bridge act
setting forth Its meaning. Mr. Werleln
read from the act showing that in or
der to use the $450,000 the bridge must
be rebuilt on its present location, and
he also said that he considered the
present bridge dangerous.
J. F. Kertchem, Waldemar Seton,
Rev. Father Greggory, L. S. Daue, Dr.
C. H. Raffety, Z. Bevln and others
spoke on the question. City Auditor
Barbur said he .considered that the

DOES NOT EXPECT APPEAL
BECKMAN BELIEVES RULING OX
LUMBER RATES WILL STAND.
Secretary of Manufacturers Seeks to
Have Tariff Take Effect
September 15.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Aug. 28.-V1C-tor
H. Beckman, secretary of the Pa
cific Coast Manufacturers' Association,
reached the city several days ago to
gather statistics and other information
concerning the lumber Interests on Grays
Harbor. He advises everybody who pro
poses to build a house, a woodshed or a
barn to build now, for lumber will never
be as cheap as at present. In fact. It is
being manufactured and sold, he says,
at many points below actual cost. Mr.
Beckman looks for a reasonably good
trade, but does not anticipate any spe
cial activity in the market until the
coming Spring.
Mr. Beckman is -just now particularly
concerned over the railway lumber tariff
as fixed by the recent ruling of the In
terstate Commerce Commission. He does
not believe the railroad companies will
appeal from the decision and he is bend
ing his energy towards securing. If pos
sible, the granting of the rates by Sep
tember 15, instead of October 16, the
date agreed on by the railroads.
While Mr. Beckman says that an ef
fort will be made to get a bill through
the next Congress placing lumber and
Its products on the free list, he does not
think it likely It will pass. It would
paralyze the lumber Industry of Wash
ington, he says, if Congress should take
such action. The combined products of
Washington Mr. Beckman places at $121,
000,000, of which about $S5.O0O.O0O is lum
ber, so that the magnitude in lumber
business compared to all the rest Is very
significant.
The lumber industry. In Mr. Beck
man's' opinion. Is greatly discriminated
against by the railroads everywhere. He
cited the fact that in the State of Wash
ington something like 53.000 tons of raw
material, or so-called refuse, is going to
waste annually because of the "refusal of
the railroad companies to give rates that
would insure Its transportation to the
Eastern market.
ARDENT WOOER IS IN JAIL
SEATTLE TRAVELING MAN HELD
FOR ANNOYING WOMAN.
Mrs. J. Eldrige Seeks Safety in
Washington-Street Crowds From
Attentions of A. V. Peabody.
Love at first sight may do very well In
novels, but in real life' It has Its draw
backs, especially If too ardent in its ex
pression, as was discovered Thursday night
by A. W. Peabody, a Seattle traveling man
now In Portland. The object of Peabody's
fervent attentions was Mrs. J. Eldrlge,
whom he met about 9:30 o'clock at Seventh
and Stark streets. So demonstrative was
the Seattle man and so unwelcome were
his attentions to the woman that he was
arrested and locked in the City Jail for
disorderly conduct.
Peabody, according to Mrs. Eldrige,
stopped her and endeavored to strike up
an acquaintance. When she Ignored him
he became the more persistent and finally
seized her in his arms. The woman re
leased herself with difficulty and fled
down Stark street and on Sixth to Wash
ington. When Mrs." Eldrlge ran breathless Into
the crowds on Washington street, Pea
body was still at her heels. Here he
caused a scene by again grabbing the wo
man, while she resented his attack with
angry protests and gave the ardent trav
eling man a sound slapping. The couple
Immediately became the center of a curi
ous crowd that soon attracted Detective
Coleman. .
On complaint of Mrs. Eldrlge, Peabody
was at once arrested. He is a well-dressed
man of about 40, and said he was staying
at one of the leading hotels. Mrs. Eldrige
is a widow of 35 and gave her address as
S3 Seventh street.
