SEA GIRT. July 28:—An intcr
HSfc'iew with Governor Edwards here
*^Whts morning as the visiting Demo
crats from Middlesex, Lnion and
Somerset counties w-ere beginning to
arrive, resulted in the governor
making the following statements:
“There are not two separate Dem
ocratic factions In Perth Amboy
coming here. There are two dele
gations, to be sure, but they are
united in principle. That’s all set
tled.’’ „
"If there is a fight on in Perth
Amboy. I welcome it as fights al
ways make things more interesting."
“I have not given much thought
as yet to conditions as they exist in
Middlesex county.”
“I think Elmer Geran will go
through as the candidate for con
gress. I am running on a platform
similar to that upon which Mr.
Geran is said to be contemplating
running—a modified prohibition
The Gannon delegation from
Perth Amboy arrived a few minutes
after 12 o’clock. The governor was
on the steps of the “Little White
House" to meet the Democratic
leader from Middlesex.
"Hello, governor," Gannon hailed
as he approached.
"Hello, Barney,” the governor re
plied. The two shook hands and
n-wspaper photographers snapped
pictures of them as they were doing
^Former State Democratic Chair
man Charles McDonald and Gannon
then went into conference. At the
conclusion of the conference the
Perth Amboy man was approached
by a Perth Amboy Evening News
reporter and questioned as to the
k Geran-Ramsay situation.
When told that Geran is reported
|B>Ko be a candidate for congress on
jf^a modified prohibition platform.
f Gannon replied that he had just
’ been informed of this fact by former
Chairman McDonald.
"I will be with Dr. Ramsay, of
course, if he decides to run," the
Perth Amboy leader said. "But I
am glad to hear that Mr. Geran has
decided to enter the race. If there
is a contest at the primaries it will
be a friendly one.”
One of the Perth Amboy automo
biles bore a banner reading “Ram
say for Congress."
About fifteen minutes after the
arrival of the Gannon delegation
former Senator Thomas Brown ar
rived with the City Democratic Club
contingent from Perth Amboy. The
senator at once proceeded to the
governor's house where he greeted
the governor and was in turn wel
comed by the state’s chief executive.

Congressman Appleby who defeated
Dr. Ramsay two years ago, was an
Interested visitor. He smiled when
the reporter appeared surprised at
finding a Republican congressman
at a Democratic reception and re
plied: "I am a Middlesex county
man as well as a Monmouth county
one as Middlesex is included in the
third congressional district, which I
represent." He then asked if either
Dr. Ramsay or Mr. Geran were on
hand. . . .
Gossip here today seemed to indi
cate that Democratic leaders figured
on carrying Monmouth county if Ge

and runs with Governor Edwards
and Judge Silzer._

Prominent Democrats are as

CHILD SOLD DY COURT
FOR $30 IT IUCTION
CHICAGO. July 28:—Held for
ransom to satisfy a $405 board and
uoctor bill incurred by her father,
now serving a term in the House of
Correction. Marie Baker, five, was
yesterday sold at ua ctlob.iyisdxz h
yesterday sold at auction by Judge
Adams in the Court of Domestic
Relations to the highest bidder.
The child was "knocked down" to
Mr. and Mrs. John Kenney, wealthy
residents of Rentville, Minn., who
had journeyed to Chicago to attend
the sale. Their bid was $30.
When Marie's mother died a year
ago her father took her and himself
to board at the home of Mrs. A.
Stolpman. He fell behind in his
payments and Mrs. Stolpman ap
pealed to the Court of Domestic Re
lations.
Mrs. Kenney, sister of the child’s
dead mother, sought to have the lit
tle one added to her flock of eight,
but the Stolpmaans blocked her ef
forts. They finally agreed that the
Kenneys might take Marie if they
would pay up all back indebtedness.
Judge Adams arbitrated the claims
and allowed them but $30.

of the incident was that he had
thrown a cigarette stub away and a

up just as the driver backed the
machine. The lad insisted that lie
was not seriously hurt and ran away
before the driver could learn his
identity.

Sitting Tight to Watch De
velopment One County
Leader Says Today
REPORT NO CONTESTS
Campaign Will Probably Get
Real Start in Course of
Few More Days
While the Democrats of Middle
sex county are getting up enihus
iam and planning an intensive cam
paign in the gubernatorial nomina
tion contest between Judge George
S. Silzer and State Banking and in
surance Commissioner William Tut
tle, Jr„ the Republicans are "Bit
ting tight, watching developments
and taking things easy.” This is the
manner in which a prominent Re
publican leader described the status

Paign- ' , _ . „
apparently do not take George L.
Record's candidacy for the nomina
tion as United States senator
against U. S. Senator Joseph S. Fre
linghuysen very seriously and many
of them do not regard the condition
as any contest for the Incumbent
who seeks re-election,
Nevertheless efforts will be made
to have Senator Frelinghuysen con
duct an active campaign as soon as
congress adjourns or whenever he
Is able to get away from Washing
ton long enough to appear before
Republican voters throughout the
state.
It is likely that a meeting of the
County Republican Committee will
be held within a week or ten days
at New Brunswick for the purpose
of laying out plans for the fall cam
paign. Although there will be no
gubernatorial contest on this ticket
for the nomination there are likely
to be a number of candidates for the
assembly in the race and a "hands
off" policy will likely be adopted by
the county committee until the vot
ers have decided at the primaries
who they want as their representa
tives.
This outing. It Is believed, will
"start the ball rolling” among G. O.
P. workers and thereafter numer
ous city, town, district and ward
meetings will be held in order to
bring before the voters the candi
dates who seek office next fall. Until
now the county Republicans have
done little while the Democrats have
been showing great activity as the
result of the contest between Judge
Silzer and Commissioner Tuttle
which they have on their hands.
On August 9 at Holly Park, South
Plainfield, the Republican outing
will be held with voters and candi

Senator Frelinghuysen. Congressman
Appleby and State Senator William
N. Uunyon will be on hand to speak.
Plans are rapidly being completed
for the big Republican outing and
rally to be held at Holly Beach
Park on August 0, afternoon and
evening. Tickets for the outing have
been printed and sent out to mem
bers of the club throughout the
county and the return envelopes
have been coming in thick and fast.
A. U. Quint, of Metuchen, chair
man of the speakers committee,
promises some lively speaking from
Congressman T. Frank Appleby.
United States Senator Joseph Frel
inghuysen and State Senator Wil
liam N. Runyon who are all keyed
up for the occasion.
There will be A ten-piece band at
the park to furnish music for danc

pear in a series of competitive
events. Through the kindness of
Mrs. Christian Kuhlthau hundreds
of yards of bunting have been donat
ed to decorate the speakers plat
form. which will present L gala ap
pearance.
Reports were current about New
Brunswick this morning that when
the Republ'can county committee
does meet, it will be with Senator
Frelinghuysen. It is understood
that the committee will not set a
date for their meeting until they (
have received word from the U. S.
senator as to when he will be able
to come to New Brunswick.
Republican leaders are thought to
have been going over the fall list of '
candidates at New Brunswick yes
terday afternoon. State Senator
Morgan F. Larson, recognized coun- :
tv leader, was at the county seat and
others prominent in Republican
circles from about the county were
seen about the county buildings.

since Senator Frelinghuysen is to
speak. The senator has announced
no subject for his address, but it is

of the affair.
The clambake will start at 1:30
o'clock and will occupy most of the
afternoon. Senator Frelinghuysen
is to be the only speaker. The
location is Pfeiffer's woods, opposite

FiREEHORD, July 28.—Held since
April 23 last on a charge of murder
and later awaiting trial on an Indict
ment charging him with manslaugh
ter, Samuel Wainwright, an eccen
tric recluse who for several years
past lived in an old cabin cruiser lo
cated near the dumping ground just
west of the Rogantown road in Nep

county jail to the state hospital at
Trenton yesterday afternoon, L)r.

examination, having declared him
insane.
Wainwright was charged with the
mvvder of Nathanial Smith, aged 41
years, of 141 South street, Soutli Am
boy, in the woods near his liinie,
April 23. Smith, it appeared, went
to W lir.wright’s cabin early that
morning and asked for food. Wain
wrighL drove Smith away and when
he returned a second lime, provided
him with some food and again sent
him away, threatening io kill him If
he bothered him more. An hour

R. R. Strike Settlement
Plans Take Tangible
Form; Confer On Tuesday
(BY THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION)
WASHINGTON, July 28—Three proposals for immediate end
ing of the railroad strike have been submitted to representatives of
the railroad executives and labor unions by President Harding,
according to information obtained today from administration ad
visors who talked with the executive.
The three proposals all hinging on various plans for adjust
ing the employes seniority rights will bo submitted, it was said> to
the executive meeting in New York Tuesday and to an employes
conference in Chicago to be arranged by B. M. Jewell, the shop
mnn's loader.
SIMM
Hope at Washington and Chi
cago That Mines Will be
Operated Soon
CHICAGO, July 28.—Coni opera
tors were continuing to deny knowl
edge of any scheduled increase such
as mentioned by John L. Lewis, and
the strike seems little nearer settle
ment.
Mrs. Lewis's statement that he
had “every reason to believe that
an Interstate joint conference of the
central competitive field, will be ar
ranged within a few days.” was dis
counted by officials of the National
Coal Association at Washington.
They said that the decision hod been
reached to make no move in the
Central fields.
Meanwhile Secretary Hoover was
receiving assurance from the gov
ernors of various states that the fed
eral government would receive every
aid from them In preventing retail
profiteering in coal during the strike
emergency.
Violence in '■eased in connection
with the coal strike in Kentucky and
Pennsylvania, six points being af
fected. .
A clash between state troops and
strike sympathizers was thought to
be a possibility in the Middleboro,
Ky„ mining district. Twenty-five
Infantrymen and their officers were
on their way to the Yellow Creek
mine where strike sympathizers
were reported to have fired on mi
ners going to work and strike lead
ers said if the troops arrived at the
mine trouble was almost certain.
Troops were sent to Clarksville,
Pa., where ndne operators had ask
ed additional protection.
State guardsmen were sent to
mines in the vicinity of Ebensburg,
i>„ nmm ..ooiuiuf r\f tho nnpiators.
Move in Coni Strike
WASHINGTON, July 28.—Presi
dent Hirdlng, it is declared m
an authoritative quarter, has a defi
nite program to settle the coal
strike and is developing it step by
step in connection with his efforts to
end the rail waikout. Where one
move falls another is taken in ac
cordance with the program.
It was declared that there is noth
ing haphazard about the program
and that it Is being followed m un
orderly manner from day to day. tor
example, the conferences at the
White House with Hcrt M. Jewel,
and T. DeWitt Cuyler were part of
this program.
The prevailing belief seems to he
that once the railway shopmen get
back on the job a settlement of the
coal strike will follow, either as a
whole or by states and districts.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover is
frankly pessimistic as to any imme
diate break in the coal strike and is
bending every effort to complete the
national organization for the carry
ing out of the plan of distribution
and control of prices worked out at
the conference with operators.
"I am putting my whole time and
attention, and have been for thirty
six hours, to the work of perfecting
this national organization,” Mr.
Hoover said, “and I hope to have it
completed by tomorrow night.”
Mr. Hoover added that for the
lime being, or until the organization
could begin to function efficiently,
the question of control of prices and.
to a certain extent, the equitable
distribution of available coal would
be left in the hands of state execu
tives, a majority of whom have tele
graphed their readiness to cooperate
in every way possible.

Outside railroad contracting, It
was said, will be abandoned by the
railroads under each of the three
proposls.
One of the proposals, according to
those claiming to have information
of the President’s suggestion would
be for the railroads to waive the
seniority question and take all strik
ers back to work.
Another was said to be to give
| ‘‘loyal’’ men who have remained at
| work prior seniority rlghte over
strikers and the third was for a sep
arate adjustment of the seniority
dispute by each road with its own
employes by joint committee* to ho
appointed.
The President was said by hie ad*
visors to believe that the them pro*
posals promised considerable hop#
of a strike settlement and to hav*
declared that ‘‘more clouds had
passed away" in the rail situa*
tiou within the past few houre ?
thun for several weeks.
Rehearsing by the Railroad Raboi
Board of the shopmen’s wage ques
tion was said to be embraced in al
three of the proposals. One propos
al. it was said, also contemplated
that both employers and employe!:
agree that hereafter the board'!
rulings be observed without question.
The President has suggested with
reference to seniority, it was assert
ed, that as an initial step under one
proposal the labor board be given
complete jurisdiction over the sen
iority controversy.
All administration officials ac*
quainted with the proposals appear
ed to share the President's view* that
a basis upon which the strikers
might return to work had been
worked out.
The situation is described by a
nign auIIlimoLi tuiun uun mt aa im
proved and showing a tendency to
“soften down." He said, however,
that some of the rail executives atill
were insistent that the new men they
had taken on to replace the striking
shopmen be retained. It was learn
ed that some of the officers who are
amenable to making terms assert
they have work for both the strikers
and all the new men who are com
petent.
Delay was seen in the announce
ment by T. De Witt Cuyler that a
meeting of the Presidents of 148
railroads will he called for New
York Tuesday to consider the entire
situation as it now stands. Mr.
Cuyler said that no definite plan for
ending the strike had been drawn up
for submission to the meeting.
Pending Tuesday's meeting of the
railroad presidents, Mr. Jewell and
his associates will hold a series of
conferences leading to a decision
upon President Harding’s proposals.
They expect today to go to Baltimore
and get in touch with the heads of
the shop crafts unions of the Balti
more & Ohio Railroad, who have
been carrying on independent nego
tiations with officials of that railway
system.
When the labor board leaders Will
return to Chicago is not known, but
■ the indications are that they will re
main in the vicinity of Washington
1 until after the railroad executives
have communicated their decision to
the President.
The fact that the railroad labor
heads have postponed their return to
Chicago, the continued presence here
of Mr. Cuyler and W. W. Atterbury,
vice president of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, and the arrival late last
night of D. F. I,oree, president of the
Delaware A' Hudson and Chairman
of the Eastern Presidents’ Confer
ence, was accepted here as evidence
that the way still lies open to Presi
dent Harding’s efforts to end the
strike.
Upon leaving tne White
late last night. Mr. Cuvier said:
“My conference with the -
dent was a continuation of the con*
ference with him earlier in the
We again went over the situation 4
the light of the President's confer
ence with the union leaders,
not, under the circumstances,
the nature of our decision.
•‘I can sa* that I will lay beroi
the 14 8 railway Presidents at the
conference to be held in New York
Tuesday the subjects coming up
the conference here.”
Asked directly if the President
had requested the railroads to con
cede the question of seniority in tak
Ing the strikers back to work. Cuy
ler replied “the President mad<
request whatever.”
