Several Meetings
In Wards Held
Last Night.
IN FIRST WARD.
Several Names Placed on the
List for City Offices TO be Bal
IOted for at the Coming Prl-
maries- Meetings in the
Other Wards.

At meeting of the republican vot-
Odd Fellows building, it was decided
to have three nominees for the Off
ces of aldermen and school commits
sioner Three or four names were
selected by the committee, who re-
quested all those present to add 9TH
er names, if they SO desired. Some
of the members did not quite under
stand why three different names were
to be placed ON the ticket, and were
given an explanation by Chairman
George J. Haney. I'm the past, he
said, there has always been a cry
that the majority of voters never has
a chance to vote for a nominee.
have heard them say that it was fix-
ed ahead of time, and that the people
never have anything to do with the
nominating at all. The reason why
we have placed the number of differ
ent names on the blackboard is SO
that every voter can choose his man,
and by having two or three names on
ticket at the primaries, the man
who is not present tonight has a
choice, instead of seeing only one
name to vote for. These names will
be placed on file by the 18th of this
month, and at the primaries, the del
egates and a nominees for alderman
and school commissioner will be vOt-
ed on. If you gentlemen are not sat
isfied with this way, why, as far as |
am concerned, you may change it,
providing some one will make a mo-
tion to that effect"
A short controversy took place,
and after a few other explanations
the different proposed nominees went
TO the secretary's desk and signed the
petition.
Chairman Haney opened the meet
ing, and number of names were
placed on the blackboard by George
Yepson Secretary l.. c. N Brogger,
Jr., and John Hanson then passed
around different ballot slips, there
being members from both polls pres
ent. The men were told that out OF
the number of names for each Office,
they were to choose either one, two

A Resolution Was
Passed By The
Local. Board.
CALL IT INSULT
Demand that Boss Strong and
His Machine Withdraw Banker
from His Position on the
State Arbitration Board
at Once.

Organized labor in this city show
ed Boss Strong and his ring" last
night that they are not so easily
fooled as he would have the public
believe. The machine has been max
ing an effort to win the labor sympa-
thy by quoting from an Essex county
trades journal and then tacking a lit
tie paragraph on. the bottom about
Senator Jackson, but the record of
Henry Banker, whom Senator Jack
son had appointed to the state board
of arbitration, and who is kept in Of
flee by Boss Strong's ring, was never
mentioned.
The labor men, however, never for
got the fact and the following reso-
luton was passed at the meeting of
the Central Labor Union last night:
Whereas, the time having come
when organized labor has decreed to
go into politics, in order that great
abuses against the people may be
corrected and just reforms instituted
by leaders who will repel the control
of corrupting bosses and corporations
it is fitting that the organized labor
of MiddleseX county should align it
self against those who have been it's
enemies and have failed to deal just
ly and honestly with the people of
the county; and the Central Labor
Union of Perth Amboy as one of the
chief units of unionism in Middlesex
does hereby place itself on record.
Resolved, That we indict the pres
ent political hierarchy in MiddleseX
county for its crimes against organ
lied labor, recalling, first, its capital
offence of placing and maintaining
in the Office of state arbitration COM
missioner that notorious foe of the
unions, Henry Banker, author of the
infamous insult, ITO hell with the
unions, | can buy them all at fifty
cents a head"
Resolved, That we demand the inn
mediate resignation or removal of
this useless and offensive official from
public position which he holds but
to draw salary that is nothing more
than so much graft wrung from the
state; and
Resolved, That if this demand is
not complied with, we will hold re-
sponsible for his further diSgraceful

Grand Jury Finds Member Who Is

Special to the EVENING NEWS:
NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept. 12.-
The grand jury, contrary to eXpecta-
tion, failed to hand in an indictment
yesterday afternoon against John Pc
truny, of Perth Amboy, for the muir
der of George Sapak. Witnesses were
on hand in the case, but in view of
the fact that one of the grand jurors,
|. S. Bennett, was over siXty-fiye
years of age, it was decided that the
matter had better be left to the next
grand jury, which will be sworn in
next Tuesday.

Totals ............. "A, ,232 4,457
The first ward shows an increase
of II. There is a decrease in the
first poll of this ward where there
were 229 registered last year, but
there is an increase of 3 in the sec
ond poll of the first ward where sos
were on the list last year.
The second ward has decreased
from the latest figures of last year,
when the number was 729. The reg
istration there to date is 6S2, drop
of AZ, but the later figures, corre-
spending to those just before election
last year, will, in all probability, be
larger.
The third ward has an increase of
20 over last year. The first polling
district of this ward has dropped
from 32S to $40, but the second poll
has increased from 313 to 1853.
The fourth ward shows decrease
of 176 votes, which is due to the
great activity which was shown there
during the last election. 1t is possi-
bic that a number have failed to reg
lister and that on the next registra-
tion day the number will be slightly
increased. The fifth ward shows a
decrease of 46. This drop may also
be due to number of the voters
failing to register.
The sixth ward shows an increase
of five, which seems small on account
of the recent canvass, which was
thought by many would show at least
one hundred over last years amount.

THREE BIDS ON
BRIDGE SPANS.
Opened by Board of FreehOIders
Today C. A. Bloomfield Files
Protest Low Bid $8I,9l6.
pecial to the EVENING NEWS:


NEW BRUNSWICK, Sept. H.
Three bids were received by the
Board of Freeholders this morning
for building the three steel spans,
$50 feet long, in the Amboy br.cge.
The lowest was that of Dean, Schw =
ers & Sutton, of New York, $S1, 1,916,
just $6,916 more than the $4,000
provided for. The Dover Boiler
Works, of Dover, N. j., bid $S5, ,333;
and the New Jersey West Virginia
Bridge Company, of ManasQuan, bid
$S7, 900. The bids were referred to
the bridge committee and the board
will meet again next Wednesday,
September 10, and probably award
the contract at that time.
Willard p Voorhees,, counsel for
Charles A. Bloomfield, entered a
protest against receiving the bids and
awarding the contract, on the
grounds that the advertisement had
been printed in but two papers of the
county and in no trade papers; that
the plans and specifications were not
ready until August 8, and that that
was too late; that the plans and spec
ifications did not agree; and that no
fixed design was provided.

grand jury, and his lawyers raised
the point that two of the members
were sixty-fve years of age and over
and beyond the age limit. Justice
Swayze would not quash the indict-
ment because of this fact, and the
case has been appealed to the higher
courts.
Rather than have this point raised
at this triel, and to prevent the case
ending in a mistrial and new trial
required by the higher court if it
should decide in favor of the point
raised at the Lang trial, no indict-
ment was found yesterday.
The grand jury handed in five in
dictments in minor cases and were
discharged for the term.
