Schuylkill county has 10 pensioners: Allegheny, 44, paid $1377.50 to May 31; Heaver, 32; Lu- zerne, 126, paid $10(10.50 to date, and Westmoreland, 21 pensioners, while Pot- ter and McKean counties are just getting under way.

ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., June l.~ Released from State* prison at Trenton today after acrving six months of a year's sentence for illegal participation in a water main contract while ho was Water Commissioner, Commodore Louis Kuehnle, former head of the Republican organization, is reported to be in Egg Harbor City tonight before going to Heach Haven, where he has a bungalow. Heach Haven is an isolated place near the government life saving station. The cottage is finely furnished as a home with every convenience. When Kuehnle returns here he plans to resume control of the hotel from which he retired some six years ago. He has an apartment next to the City Hall, which he lived in after giving up the hotel, and this is still in charge of a housekeeper, who has everything in read- iness for him to resume occupancy after his rest at Beach Haven. Just what his attitude will be in regard to politics is a mystery. He is looked upon by many as a martyr, a victim of a technicality. Hia hold upon the organization is still strong, and the majority of politician* are inclined to hehevo that if he should show a disposi- tion the command would be turned over to him. Immediately after his indict- ment he gradually loosened his control of the organization, but he was always consulted as an influential factor in all party politics. "Kuehnle will rest tonight in Egg Harbor City, his old home, said George Ortlip, his financial agent here. "He does not c«^re to talk to anyone or dis- cuss business affairs. He will remain se- cluded and I have little doubt but that before, he returns to Atlantic City he Will visit his bungalow at Beach Haven. He is not ill, but the last few days of his sentence imposed a mental strain which I understand affected him physically. "Several times I have been approached in regard to the sale of Kuehnle J s hotel, but the commodore declined all offers. He has decided to resume the manage- ment of the property.- I expect him within ten days, if he fully recovers from the effect of the strain he underwent in preparing for the regaining of his free- dom. His ordinary health is good and from all we know his confinement has not affected his general health." Four Others Released Special to The Inquirer. TRENTON, N.
