Do NOT WANT
STREET PAVED
demonstrators on Brighton Ave-
nue. and Lower State Street
0utnumber Petitioners.

Remonstrances against the petit
tions received recently by the Board
of Aldermen for pavements on Brigh-
ton avenue and on State street, be-
tween Gordon and Lewis streets.
were received by the Board of Al
dermen last night The State street
remonstrance bore twenty two sigma
lures and that from Brighton avenue
bore eighteen. They were referred
to the committee of the whole.
At the meeting of the Aldermen a
month ago, petitions for paving these
streets with asphalt, bituminous ma
cadam or vitrified brick, the cost not
to exceed $2.10 a square yard, were
received and were referred to the
committee on streets and sewers. The
Brighton avenue petition bore fifteen
signatures and the State street petit
tion was signed by fire property own
ers.
As the number of signatures on the
remonstrances out number those on
the petitions, the petitions are thus
knocked out.

Mrs. Dennis Desmond Passed
Away Suddenly This Morning
Mr.. Desmond on Vessel.
SENTfUC AFTER HIM,
Every Effort to Reach the Man Failed
Yesterday - Will Arrive Here
About O'clock TOday-Woman
Was Found Sitting i'm Chair i'm Her
Apartments-Could Hardly Speak
Sister Brought From Railway.

Mrs. Dennis Desmond, of SO JEFF
ferson street, was suddenly taken i'll
at l O'Clock yesterday afternoon with
a congestive chill, and died at 10: As
O'Clock this morning, while her hus-
band, who is an engineer on the gov
ernment dredge Gedney, was off San
dy Hook at work, and unaware of
what was taking place.
The case is a sad one in many re-
spects, and has caused much grief
among the friends of the family.
Mrs. Desmond was perfectly well
yesterday morning, and after lunch
sat down in a Morris chair to rest,
having worked hard all the morning.
At about 1 o'clock, the election can
vassers called at the house to as
certain the number of voters. They
had few minutes conversation
with Mrs. Anderson, who lives on the
lower floor, and through her learned
that another family lived in the
house. They asked Mrs. Anderson
how many voters were in the Des-
mond family and to find out, Mrs. An
derson called to Mrs. Desmond.
Found i'm a Chair.
Not receiving any reply she went
up stairs, and there found Mrs. Des-
mond sitting in the Morris chair
hardly able to speak, while her little
two-year-old daughter, not knowing
her mother was ill., was playing on
the floor. DR.. j. G. Wilson was sent
for at once, and in spite of his efforts
Mrs. Desmond failed rapidly, dying
at 10:45 o'clock this morning.
Effort to Reach Husband.
In the meantime efforts were made
to notify Dennis Desmond, the hus-
band, who was on the water. The
police telephoned to every place
where they thought he could be told
of his wife's illness, but were unsuc-
cessful. The Office of the dredging
company in New York were finally
notified, and a tug was sent for Des-
mond this morning, but in all events
he is not expected until o'clock this
afternoon.
Miss Mary Fagan, sister of Mrs.
Desmond, living in Railway, was no.
tilted and brought here last night by
w. b. Pratt, in his automobile. he
having been told of Mrs. Desmond s
condition over the telephone by the
local police.
Mr.. and Mrs. Desmond have only
been married about four years, and
have the sympathy of many who
knew them we'll.
The funeral will be arranged after
Mr.. Desmond arrives.

Was On Duty Last Night.

Some trouble with the lock on the
large safe in the rear of the First
National bank caused quite a delay in
that institution yesterday. The huge
safe which is about ten feet high,
could not be opened, and as the books
of the concern were in it, the lock
had to be smashed before the doors
could be opened. They were finally
removed and the door was sent to
New York where the lock will be re-
paired at once.
City Marshal r. A. Peltier was on
duty at the bank last night, keeping
guard over the safes contents, and
will remain there each night until
the safe is once more in condition.
Cashier Harry Conard said this
morning that it may take a number
of days before the doors will be again
in position.

VOTERS TO DECIDE THE QUESTION
| OF INCREASING THE POLICE PAY.
Petition to Take Advantage Of
New Law Granted by Board
of Aldermen.
BY VOTE OF 8 To 2,
Acting Mayor Pfeiffer, Says This
City Is Not in Position for
Ii at Present.

by vote OF j to z, the Board OF
Aldermen last night granted the petit
tion of the members of the police
force to submit the question of an in
crease in salary for the policemen to
the voters of the city at the general
election this Fall
The petition was received several
weeks ago, after the aldermen had
declined to grant previous petition
for increased police salaries. This
second petition aims to take advan-
tage of new law enacted by the leg
islature of this state, fixing a scale
of police salaries which may be
adopted by the vote of the people of
city.
Alderman Rossi moved to take the
petition up last night and act upon it,
This motion was carried by 3 to 2
vote, Aldermen Rossi, Warter and
Schultz voting ''aye," and Alderman
Grouse and Alderman-at-large Pfeif-
fer mo" Aldermen Stacey and
Smith were not present.
The petition was then read by the
clerk, after which Mr.. Rossi offered
a motion that it be granted.
Alderman-at-Large Pfeiffer asked
Mr.. Rossi to take the chair, and Mr..
Pfeiffer took the floor and spoke
against the granting of the petition
at the present time. He said that
the bringing up of the matter, while
possibly proper, was not right at this
time, as he does not believe that this
city is in position to present the
question of increasing its police sal
aries to the voters. The mass of vot-
ers, the acting mayor declared, are
not well enough informed as to what
it means.
''The Petition" said Mr.. Pfeiffer,
'aims to take advantage of new law
providing for scale of salaries for
policemen, increasing in five years, /
believe, to 81, 200 annually. 1t also
provides for $1,000 for sergeants,
but says nothing about chiefs. Now,
while | believe that every servant is
worthy of his hire, | do not think
that Perth Amboy is in a position to
pay its policemen 81, 200 year, con-
sidering our finances at present. Only
two cities in the state have taken ad-
vantage of the law Newark and Jer-
sey City. Elizabeth has not taken ad-
vantage of the law, but it has increas-
ed the policemen's salaries as far as
possible.
Such action here this year is i'll
timed, also, as the voters are to be
asked, probably, to vote on the ques-
tion as to whether the school COM
missioners should be appointed, in
stead of being elected, as now. That
would mean, if the police petition is
granted, that there will be three sep
arate questions on the ballot to be
decided by the voters at the election:
The regular election to offices, the
school board question and the police
sa1ary question. | do not think this
is the proper time for voting on the
police salaries"
Mr.. Pfeiffer then resumed the chair
and, as there were no further re-
marks, the motion was put. Messrs.
Rossi, Warter and Schultz voted in
favor of it, and Messrs. Grouse and
Pfeiffer against it.

The passage of the antitoxin bill
by the last legislature was a notori-
Gus example of this practice. When
DR.. Frank Henry. in the session of
1905, tried to get passed a measure
for the free distribution of antitoXin
to prevent the ravages of diphtheria
among the children of the poor-the
toxin being an article of such price
as in many cases to be beyond the
means of many people-the labor un-
ions, of this county, particularly,
took up the fight and endorsed the
measure. The idea of the bill was
for the state to manufacture the an
titoxin and distribute it, which was
lotto the liking or benefit Of The an
titoxin trust It would have cut d
big Slice out of its business The
