ODD FELLOWS MUST
EXPELL SALOON MEN
Same. Decree Holds Good Against
Gamblers -InstaIIment Plan
Abolished.

In proclamation just issued by
Wesley B. Stout, of Asbury Park,
grand master of the grand lodge of
Odd Fellows, of this state, subordi-
nate lodges are notified that saloon
keepers, bartenders or professional
gamblers must be expelled from the
order unless they abandon their bust
ness before August 20 next. Some
lodges have been initiating members
on partial payment of fee or on no
fee at all, as Grand Master Stout en-
bodied in his proclamation an order
directing all lodges to collect imme-
diately from such initiate or initiates
He also requests that the lodges re
call any receipt for lodge dues that
has not been an authentic certificate.
The grand master threatens to repeal
the charter of any lodge that does not
comply with his orders.
1t is known that many lodges in
the state do not give the official re-
ceipt and that others have admitted
men who were engaged in the liquor
business at the time of their admis-
sion and still continue in the business,
while other members have engaged
in the selling of liquor since uniting
with the fraternity.

Only two bids were received last
night by Superintendent Burns for
retubing the condenser on the Snow

and were awarded the contract,
which is to be fulfilled at once. The
other competitor was P. White &
Sons, $3.50.
The matter was presented to the
water board at their meeting We'd
nesday night, and they authorized
the superintendent to receive the bids
at o'clock last night, and If they
were over $500 to properly advertise
them.
Had Schantz & Eckert bid one cent
more, their bid could not have been
considered, but under the conditions
of the motion, they were awarded
the contract.
The condenser is in bad condition,
and the work is to be done as soon as
possible. In case the new pump

He was advertised to speak in Rail
road square at 5 pm, but at that
hour the rain was falling in torrents,
and the meeting was abandoned.
Senator Colby arrived here yester-

HEARING To Be
HELD AUG. I.
Judge Lyon TO Take Testimony
in Runypn Land DeaI-.--Water
Board Hires Voorhees,.

Adrian Lyon, counsel for the plain
tiffs, has issued subpoenas for the
hearing in the matter of the restrain
ing order now pending before Vice
Chancellor Henry c. Pitney, and the
subpoenas will be served this after
noon or tonight.
The hearing will be held before
Newton p. Kinsey, of Newark, master
in chancery, at Judge Lyons Offices
in the Haney building, 11O Smith
street, next Tuesday morning, COM
mencing at 10 o'clock, and Will be
public. Witnesses will be called to
tell what they know concerning the
attempted purchase of the Fountains
land at Runyon for $15,500, and of
the negotiations leading up to it and
connected Herewith. The testimony
will be taken down by J. r. Salmon,
the vice chancellor's stenographer,
and these dispositions will be used
when the case comes up before Vice
Chancellor Pitney Tuesday, August
21, when no testimony is to be re-
ceived except that in writing.
Startling developments of keen in
terest to the taxpayers are promised
when the witnesses are called next
Tuesday.
The witnesses will be cross-examin-
ed by counsel for the water board, if
the latter desire.
w. p. Voorhees, Has Been Retained.
1t has become known that Lawyer
Willard p. Voorhees,, of New Bruins
wick, who is appearing in opposition
to Judge Lyon, is in the employ Nof
the water board in this matter and
not of the Fountains. 1t was thought
that Lawyer Voorhees, was in the en-
ploy of the Fountains, together with
Lawyer George S. lSilzer, but it has
now leaked out that Mr.. VOORHEES, is
associated directly with City Attorney
C. C. Hommann, in the case, and that
Mr.. Silzer alone is looking after the
Fountains interests Municipal mon
ey is, therefore, to be paid for Law
yer Voorhees, services unless he is
doing the work for some other con-
sideration, which is unlikely.
Judge Lyon at first intended to
have the testimony taken before
some local lawyer,fa master in chan
Gerry, but finally determined to bring
one here from out of town. 1t is not
known yet whether Mr.. Hommann
will call witnesses also at similar
hearing, but it is presumed so. No
notice of such action has been re-
ceived as yet by counsel for the plain
tiffs.

CAR IN
A PANIC.
More Vessels Join the Mutiny-
Ruler Forced TO Flee from
Palace at PeterhOf.
MORE RED FLAGS APPEAR
Fire and volt Is Spreading TO
the Utmost Corners Of
the Umpire.

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 3. - The
czar and the imperial family have fled
from the palace at Peterhof and have
taken refuge Mt Selo.
When the firing began at Cronstadt
during the night there ensued a wild
panic in the imperial palace at Peter
hof. as the palace lies under the guns
of the fortress. All preparations had
been made in advance to flee to Tsar-
skoe-Selo. but the report atioat that the
emperor and his family actually had
fled in the middle of the night is de-
MED. Later at the chancellery of the
imperial household it was explained
that on account of ''dampness' ut Pc
terhof arrangements had been made
Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-08-03

for the return of the imperial family
to Tsarskoe,Selo, which Is about fifteen
miles from St Petersburg and is the
camp of the guard regiments from
June to the end of August.
In Cronstadt the population is mo-
mentarily expecting the appearance OF
the rebel fleet.
This morning there was a glow in the
heavens in the direction of Cronstadt,
but it was later found out that it came
from a fire on the mainland.
Three other fires were raging at the
same time, one on Vasilli Ostrov and
two in the direction of the Narva gate,
near the Baltic railroad station. All
are believed TO be the work of revolu-
tionists.
A late dispatch says that military
disorders have broken out at Revel.
General Markgraffsky, chief of the
gendarmerie, was shot and killed by
revolutionists at Otwock, summer re-
sort situated about twenty miles from
Warsaw.
An unsuccessful attempt was made
to blow up the headquarters building
of the police at Warsaw. 1t was
frustrated by the discovery Of the in
fernal machine, which had been hidden
in a laundry basket. because of the
clicking sound of it's mechanism.
Martial law has been proclaimed at
Cronstadt and in the Donets basin, the
center of the mining and smelling in
dustry.
Although the mutinies at Sveaborg
have been ended and the one at Cron-
stadt has been practically put down.
the outlook is still very black. The
revolutionists. whose hands were sud
denly forced by the premature rising
at Sveaborg, are apparently undaunt-
ed at these initial reverses and intend
to persist in their programme of call
ing a general strike tomorrow or Mon
day.
The crew of the Russian cruiser
Asia. which was sent to Abo. has
hoisted the red flag. The vessel has
left in the direction of Syeab0rg.
Grand Duke Nicholas received n
message shortly after midnight saying
that the loyal portion of the crew of
the cruiser Pamyat A2ova had made
prisoners of the mutineers and turned
them over to soldiers on shore.
One of the leaders of the revolution
lists with whom IL representative spoke
last night boasted that the word had
gone forth and tl.It fire ard revolt

Bloomfield Is Not
Through With
n the Bridge.
WILL TEST The LAW.
If Found Unconstitutional He
Will Commence Criminal and
Civil Action to Recover Tax
payers Money Which Has
Been Squandered.

The impression given that G. A..
Bloomfield has dropped the bridge
scandal because the last payment has
been made on the structure across
the Raritan river, is false, as Mr..
Bloomfield, when he goes into fight
does not give up until there is abso-
lutely nothing more to do.
Instead of quitting, he has begun
proceedings to test the constitution
ality of the law railroaded through
the legislature by Senator Jackson,
making legal all the past rascality in
the bridge proceeding.
Mr.. Bloomfield believes that such
law will not stand and he has good
legal opinions to back him.
1t will be remembered that Dory
Strong held up the opening of the
bridge as whip to force the COVER
nor to sign the bill which made all
the questionable work on the bridge
legal The EVENING NEWS expos
ed the game at the time, and as soon
as the bill was signed the bridge was
opened, proving that Boss Strong was
the cause of the long delay
Should the bill be declared uncon-
stitutional, civil and criminal action
will be taken to get back what has
been stolen from the county treasury.
The civil action will be to recover the
money which belongs to the taXpay-
ers and which has been overpaid to
the contractors, and the criminal ac-
tion will be against the public Off
cials who abused the confidence the
public placed in them.
Mr.. Bloomfield ridicules the idea
that to place three steel spans in the
bridge will cost $4,000. He has evil
dence to prove that, if the work is
done honestly, it can be done for
from $33, 900 to $4,000 and that
900 feet of the bridge can be replaced
for the $4,000 mentioned.
Mr.. Bloomfield is of the opinion
that it will be economy to spent the
$4,000 and replace 900 feet with
spans, as that would carry the steel
spans to the point of land on the
south side, otherwise the county will
be at constant expense repairing
the wooden work.
Mr.. Bloomfield is going to stump
the county and tell the taxpayers
what a job has been put up on them.
Already he has thrown CONSERVATION
into the "ring's" camp.
