Said Senator McLean, “Show me a man who has reduced the price of eggs, butter or ' vegetables joined the new political religious bull- moose crusade, and you will show me a man who is fighting for the Lord; show me a landlord in this army who has lowered his rents and I will show you a real reformer; show me a pro- gressive crusader in favor of a low tariff whose politics are not in his pocketbook and I will show vou a man who is in politics for the Lord's sake.

Schultze of Cornell university, would give tonight no detailed statement of the suspiclous circumstances re but he declared that vital organs the body had been turned over to Dr. Schuitze for microscopic and chemical analysis. Public report of these find- ings will be made at an inquest to be held Sept. 18. After the conclusion of the autopsy interest centered in a building in Lib- erty stréet, in this oity, where Attor- ney Gibson has his office. Inquiry into the circumstances of Mrs. Szabo's death began at the instigation of Fritz Fischerauer, the Austrian consul gen- eral, who seeks to remove Gibson as executor of the woman's $10,000 estate. Detective in Building Where Gibson Has Office. ‘When it was made known that evi- dence to arouse suspicion as to the cause of the woman's death had been found, Deputy Sh Willis de Graw of Orange county left Jersey City im- mediately for New York. He first sought the Austrian consul, and late in the afternoon went to the Liberty street building. There he found a pri- vate detective who has been investi- gating the death of Mrs. Szabo for the Austrian consul.

The two drank together and the de- teotive accompanied the attorney to his office, where he remained for more than an hour.

The detective then accompanied Gibson ‘as the latter left for his home in Rutherford, N. J. Conference of Officials Today. To determine what course to pursue in the case, a conference of officials will be held in Jersey City tomorrow.

Gibson remained in his office to- day, reiterating his previous stand, that Mrs, Szabo had been accidentally drowned. EXPLAINED PROPOSED COMPENSATION LAW.
