PROTECTION FROM TRAMPS
Chief Murphy Will Station Men
Near the Plank Road.

Residents in the vicinity of the Plank
Road and West Side avenue are complain
ing of the number of tramps who over
run that vicinity and make demands for
food and money, becoming extremely
abusive when their demands are refused.
A lady who lives in West Side avenue, a
short distance from the Plank Road had
a most disagreeable experience a few
days ago. She was alone in the house
toward evening. when she was called to
the door. There she beheld a dirty, i'll
looking tramp who demanded food. When
it was denied he said in threatening
Manner
Il must have the food or the money to
buy it."
The young lady became frightened and
hurriedly retreated into the house, offer
ing the excuse that she would consult her
father. When she got inside she locked
the door and went to another part of the
house. The tramp battered on the door
and windows but left without gaining ad-
mittance.
Chief Murphy, when seen about this
condition of affairs yesterday, said that
the police had received no complaints
thus far, but that he would see that that
section was more thoroughly patroled by
the police hereafter and that the residents
were protected.
That point is the entrance to this city
from the highway between Newark and
this city, and naturally a greater number
of tramps pass that point than any other
in the city

DUFF ASKS SUPPORT.
Says There's No Reason
Why Seventh Club Should
Not Progress.

The Seventh Ward Democratic Club met
last night at the clubhouse on Ocean ave-
nue.. President Joseph Duff called the
meeting to order, it being the first time
he had presided since his election 10
office. The election was very closely con-
tested, and it was rather expected that
there would be some excitement last
night. Those who attended the meeting
with the expectation of hearing warm de-
bates were disappointed.
President Duff made short speech in
calling the meeting to order. He said
There has been a great deal of news
paper talk about disorganizing this club,
but as far as can learn that is all there
is nj it. l will do all in my power to
further harmony in their organization
and I hope that all the members will
support me-
The only business. aside from the read
ing of reports of committees, was the Of
fering of two amendments to the con-
stitution. The first amendment was to
give the power of appointing the execu-
tive committee of three members of the
club from each precinct to the president.
The other amendment was to allow the
election of members of the Board of
Trustees from the members of the club
without restricting them to being mem-
bers of the County Committee. Both of
these amendments were laid on the table.
The report of the board of trustees
showed that the club was in excellent
condition financially with a balance of
s2115S.
The only incident that savored of excite
ment was the speech of Patrick Munna,
who asked for the privilege of the floor,
and before it could be granted started on
TRADE against the lack of freedom of
speech for some members. Munna seemed
to be a little mixed.
and did not know what he was talking
about. He made several remarks about
the president, but everybody took them
more as joke than any thing else.S He
did not become very much excited until
President Duff used the word ''conspic-
uous'' in speaking to him.
This was too much for him and he inn
mediately tried to explain how well ne
could use the English language. He was
finally quieted by the adjournment.
