NO MORE FREE RIDES.
Chief Murphy VIII Break Up
BOYS Practice of Catching
on Trolley Cars.

"catch behind" will no longer be the
nastime Of Young school boys and hood
l,ms about town, as Chief of Police Mur-
nbv has decided to break up the practices
of stealing rides on trolley cars. Inc
Traction Company and individuals WIZ
have felt concerned at the dangers 10
which the boys ave exposed themselves
have made complaint to the Chief.
This morning the Chief gave orders 70
the CAPTAINS Of the several preclncts 10
break up the practice and maxi arrests
If necessary.
To a News reporter this morning
Chief Murphy said
During the past two months the poss
Of our city have lost all dread OF the
deadly trolley cars. In case they are SEM
nv their parents or some other person on
an errand. at a distance, they think noth-
ing of perching themselves on the rear
bumper. riding until their presence IS as
covered by the conductor Last nisht
while on my way to Police Headquarters.
I saw three boys perched on the rear ol
a swiftly moving ear, which was croWoeo
with passengers.
sTf this sort of thing is allowed to con-
t,nue,, the Chief went on. 'there certain
" will be some young boys killed. IN
cumming from the car they are liable to
fall in front of a car or other VENICE
coming in an opposite direction. It IS a
misdemeanor in this State for a person 20
lump on or off a car without paying ms
fare.
1T was suggested to me this morning
that a strip of barbed wire be fastened on
the rear bumper, but I think this wou4a
be cruel. A better plan would be to charge
the bumper with just enough electricity
to give the boys a shock. This. | THINK,
would stop the practice of catching on-
ITO aid the police in making arrests l
have asked the companies to instruct the
conductors and motormen. when a boy
b;tehes on. to let him ride until a police
officer is met. then stop the car suddenly.
| so that the boy or boys a be caught
said the Chief in conclusion.

STAMPS NOT CANCELLED
Post Office Machine Doesn't
Work Married Wo-
men Rule.

The Post Office Department at WASH
ington has decided that married women
as clerks are not desirable. Hereafter
| Postmasters will be forced to call for the
| designations Of married women.
E. w. Wooiley, assistant postmaster,
was asked If the new rule would affect
any one in the Jersey City Post Once
| He said:A
There is but one married woman in
the Jersey City Post Office and it was I'M
likely that she would be removed as she
had been appointed from Washington.
Considerable difficulty is being exper-
fenced with the cancelling machine used
for local mail in the Post Office. Though
an Improvement has been noticed since
the News called attention to the mutlia-
ton of the mail, the machine still does
damage and it sometimes fails to cancel
the stamps. When too much pressure Is
used the letters suffer. Toe little pressure
fails to cause the stamp to become can
celled by the cancelling wheel.
Mr.. Woolley wrote to the manufacturers
of the machines, in Indianapolis, on De
scember 2. He stated that the machine
was useless and that it should be ADJUST
ed so as to properly cancel the stamps
and postnark the envelopes without mu-
tilating the contents. He also said he
would notify the department unles the
machine were fixed.
A reply was received Thursday stating
that the adjustment gear is out or oruer.
A man will be sent over from New YORK
to repair the machine.
Nj Woolley said that the machine fire.
uentiy missed letters and many escaped
through the machine without being can
celled. He hoped, he said, that me
machine would be so adjusted that the
letters would escape mutilatlon ana
stamps would be properly cancelled
