Kronprinz Wilhelm followed in the wake of the Interned Eitel Frederick, which arrived here a month ago after thrilling and effective operations for the German arms. In her raid of the seas since she slipped out of -New York harbor Aug. 3 last as a German merchant and passenger steamship the Kronprinz Wilhelm never touched land and took SCO prisoners from various vesselg destroyed. Most of these were sent to South American ports at different times on German ships, which met the raider in response to wireless calls.

The 61 prisoners she had on board are British sailors from the steamships Tamar, destroyed March 23, and Coleby, destroyed March 27 last. The second of the raiders brought as thrilling a story as did the Eitel Kriedrich. Her record of destruction, however, was accomplished with only four guns, two taken from the German cruiser Karlsruhe and two' captured later from the Brlttoh merchant steamship La Correntina, sunk October, 1914.

Senator Charges That Opinion Child Killing Case, Given i By Jurist, Has Been Altered. TREXTOX. April 13. Senator Charles O'Conno Hennessy of Bergen county, sent another letter to Governor Fielder yesterday protesting against the reappointment of Chief Justice William S. Gummere to the supreme court bench.

His latest attack deals with the so-called "dollar-child'' decision of the supreme court, July 19, 1898, fie opinion in which was, written by the chief justice, then an associate member of the court. In that case a jury In Hudson county gave a verdict of for the death of a 4-year-old child who was killed by a trolley car. The Supreme court held that under the law of the state a father was only entitled to recover for the actual pecuniary loss sus tained. Tho court also held that'in the case of so younar a child there was no pecuniary loss, since the amount ex pended in bringing ui) children gener ally exceeded any sums received from them by their parents in later life. The decision was severely criticised at the time upon the theory that the court had held the life of a child to be worth only a dollar.

Exception was also taken to the language used in the opinion of the chief justice, which many regarded as unnecessarily brutal. The ca-je was before the supreme court Ave times and in each instance a ver dict of $5,000 was either reduced or set aside entirely. Verdict Upt Five Times.

Tugs Loosen British Bark From Sandbar at Manto- loking, a. April 13. The British bark Invermay was floated late yesterday afternoon thru the combined efforts of two tugs and last night proceeded to Xew York under tow. It had been feared that the bark, which went ashore early Sunday morning, would be permanently held on the bar off this place. The tugs were those of the Merrick-Chapman Wrecking company.

Oil INVERMAY FLOATED UPON FLOOD IE RAILROAD STATION Formal complaint to the public utility commissioners about the main 1 railroad station here was authorized by the city commission today in a resolution presented by Mayor Hetrick, which instructa City Solicitor J. Otto 'Rhome to prepare the case.

Thia action follows a resolution adopted a few weeks ago which served notice on the, railroads that unless some guarantee of better station facilities were given the city, formal appeal would be taken to the utility board. The railroads replied that for several reasons this was not the time to think of a new station. No Intimation was given today of the nature of the citations the city will make in its complaint, but it is expected that the dangers of the heavy summer traffic under the present station arrangements will form the basis of the demand for better accommoda-tiona. Mayor Hetrick's ideas for a-municl-pal lighting plant will be presented to the commission under a resolution which empowers him, without cost to the city, to "secure data and information relative to the cost" of such a project. The city board of education met with the commissioners today, coal bids were opened.

The education board formally convened and took charge of the school bids. The bidding seemed to be lively.

The board of education asked bids on 500 tons of pea coal, 150 tons of buckwheat and 35 tons of egg. There were six bidders.

The city bids were referred to Finance Director Burroughs for tabulation and the school bids to Business Manager Close. By resolution, Mayor Hetrick and Commissioners Burroughs and LeRoy were named as the city's representatives on the board of school estimate. For failure to secure a permit under the sanitary code, Alexander Levy will be made defendant in a suit for penally, according to a resolution presented by Mr. LeRoy, which declared that Levy had operated in the city, removing offal from butcher stores.

Mayor Goodrich cast the deciding vote and confirmed the ap polntment. Brand is connected "with the Atlantic Coast Electric Light com pany. R.

C. Love, lessee of the store at the Avon pavilion, appeared before council and asked that his lease be renewed. Councilmen Angeny and Mullen were of the opinion that bids should be adyer tised for and the store leased to the lowest bidder. Mr. Love pointed out that this would mean a great loss of time as stock must be purchased.

However the council thought that it would be illegal to do otherwise and bids will be invited for the lease of the store for the period of three years with the privi lege of five. Mayor Goodrich read a communication from the Coast Gas company, asking that their bill of $93.90 for lighting the boro hall be paid. Mayor Goodrich asserted that the gas company had no grounds for presenting such a bill, as it was distinctly stated in their franchise that there should be no charge for lighting the boro hall and fire houses. Councilman Mullen objected to the mayor's plea, saying that the franchise was granted when the 'old boro hall was in use and one light was sufficient. Mayor G'oodrleli was authorized to take up the matter with the gas company.

Mayor Goodrich asked ror volunteers to serve on the Sinking Fund commission. After several persons had declined the honor, J. Henry Emlen and Frank A. Sofleld consented to act. The other members of this commission are Dr.

Every character was cleverly Impersonated and well acted, the entire result showing faithful work on the part of the children and others wrho appeared and efficient training on the part of Miss Syrena Parmalee, who ably directed the event.

E. Donges of Camden, who is the. president, and John J. Treacy of Jersey City. It is the first time the utility boal has been entirely partisan in its makeup, and there has already been some criticism of the governor for selecting a Demociat on thia account.

The Democrats, however, point out that when the old railroad commission, the predecessor of the utility board, was created in 1907 it was composed of three Republicans, namely, General Joseph W. Congdon of Paterson, Edmund Wilson of Red Bank and Borden D. Whiting of Newark. They were all named by Governor John Franklin Fort, a Republican. The original railroad commission made Alfred.

X. Barber, Republican, of Trenton, its secretary, and he has been retained ever since. When the utility board succeeded the railroad commission, Mr. Barber had been such a valuable secretary that he was kept in office. There was sometalk today that the appointment of Judge Slocum to the board might mean a change in the secretaryship and the selection of a Democrat.

Judge Slocum wis formerly senator from Monmouth county. Last year he was president of the senate. Karly in this session of the legislature Governor Fielder appointed him judge of the court 'of common pleas of Monmouth, and he was immediately confirmed by the senate. CO.

Their growth and development has been in keeping with the growth and development of the communities in which they were installed. Fiduciary institutions to meet the several demands of the times honestly officered and honestly conducted for the sole interest and advancement of the particular communities which they sought to serve, they have power to be veritable bulwarks of financial strength, impregnable to assault in the stress of bad tims, as well as good times, infititutions where business men conducting small business might go and deposit their moneys, and borrow-on their paper such sums as they might require to meet their business wants.

Assemblyman Woherton of Camden countv brought the matter to the at tention of the house by moving that the measure be passed, the governor's veto notwithstanding.
