While it is not known to certain
ty just who will be the new presi-

one of the new members, will be the
man. AS far as is known, no sue

resigned his position on the board
about week ago.
1t is almost certain that DR.. G. W.

appointed to succeed DR.. William E.

Hoy also said that there are some
clauses in the excise ordinance which
might be revised, as, for instance.
the one which forbids a saloon with
in 200 feet of a church or school but
says nothing against wholesale
places. I'VE must be guided by the
ordinance as a minister is by his
Bible" declared Mr.. Hoy.
Mr. Hoy said that the city attorney
had told him that the ordinance
could not be changed as desired
Then he has changed his mind this
week. said the recorder, who had
gotten a different idea of the matter
in an interview with the city attor-
ney.
One of the members suggested that
it would be sufficient for the presi-
dent to order the clerk to give notice
to the saloonkeepers to put the
names of the proprietors on the
signs.
Mr.. Hoy explained how it was that
one license certificate for a place
which mad been transferred from one
man to another about year ago had
not borne the proprietor's name, be-
cause of clerical oversight; the city
/ had received the $25 for the trans
/ fer.
Before the meeting was adjourned.
President Hoy asked the members if
they had anything further to offer,
and then turned to- the audience of
40 or so and asked if anyone had
anything to bring before the board
No one had, but ample opportunity
was given, as after the previous meet
ing it was declared that the recorder
was given no chance to present his
list.

Health Commissioner Main were in
the audience.
The following applications were
granted:

JUDGE LYON MAKES
REPLY TO SENATOR.
Jackson Explains Why Caucus Was
Held and Booream Selected.
NOT ACTIVE FOR THE POSITION.

An interview with Senator Jack
son regarding the appointment to
the county bench was published in
the Newark Evening News last night.
Today Judge Lyon makes a reply to
the statements alleged to have been
made by the senator.
The story published in the Newark
paper last night is under a New
Brunswick date line, and is as fol-
lows:
Senator Jackson, upon being
questioned as to the allegations of
bad faith on his part, made by the
Perth Amboy friends of Adrian Ly-
on, who, they expected, would be slat-
ed as Judge Strong's successor, in
stead of Theodore B. Booraem, of
this city, declared that there was no
ground for such allegations.
There was no intention what
ever said Senator Jackson, of un-
derhanded methods in the interest of
Mr.. Booraem or against Mr.. Lyon.
these: Mr.. Lyon came in to see me on
several occasions at my New York
Office. He announced himself as a
candidate for the place, and talked
the matter over with me. Friends of
his from Perth Amboy also interview
ed me upon several occasions. l did
not commit myself in Mr.. Lyons fa-
vor, because from the beginning
have felt that the greater part of the
county did not want Perth Amboy
Judge.
81 know Mr.. Lyon very well and
like him and respect him highly. I
understood the strong sentiment in
favor of his appointment in Perth
Amboy, but | also knew that he was
not known throughout the county,
and that his appointment would not
be satisfactory to the people of the
rest of the county.
4 did not make any pledges to
Mr.. Lyon or to anybody else that the
matter would not be considered be-
fore March. | did tell him, or them,
or perhaps every one from Perth AM
boy with whom ! spoke, that the
term of Judge Strong did not expire
until March, and that it was perhaps
too early to talk about his successor;
that perhaps it would not be until the
early part OF March that we would
take up the matter, as Judge Strong
would hold Office until the end of
March.

4 did think this, but some time
ago Governor Stokes spoke to me
about the Middlesex judgeship, and
suggested that it would be advisable
to get candidate ready, and be sure
he was the right man. Under these
