BAR ASSOCIATION ON
DEATH OF Mr.. PARKER.
His Departure, Last of Three Great
Men, Concludes an Epoch in
Country's History,

AT a meeting of the Members of the bar
of Essex in the Chancery chambers, called
by Frederick Johnson. president of the
Lawyers Club. these resolutions on the
death of Cortlandt Parker were read by
Prosecutor Of the Pleas Henry Young and
unanimously adopted:
''Cortlandt Parker. whose death we
mourn today, was the Oldest, and, for many
years, the most distinguished member OF
the New Jersey bar. For slxty-seven
years-a period longer than the lives of
most men-he practised his profession in
our midst with a vigor and devotion that
have made a lasting impression upon the
legal history of the State. Until his natu-
raj force was abated by the weight OF
years and the infirmities Of age, he was
| recognized as the leader of our bar.
He came to the bar at the same time
with Joseph p. Bradley and Frederick T
~Frelinghuysen, whose classmate he was at
Rutgers College and whom he long sur
ived. The learning, eloqtence and unus-
ual abilities of these remarkable men gave
character and distinction to the bar OF
this county and State. Indeed, the repu-
tation of each OF them was national. The
departure of the last of these distinguished
lawyers concludes an epoch in our history.
wi L . plOiSSSlOiidi NulStl was
most notable. Our records of adjudicated
cases furnish lasting evidence of the fact
that in most of the important cases in the
State he was engaged as counsel; and his
services were also in demand nlthe courts
of the United States. He was a great
lawyer-great in preparation, in learning,
In skill. in judgment and in eloquence.
Mr.. Parker was a man of distinguished
appearance and manner his nature was
lEa.%I --l
Il in his treatment of his younger mem
bers of the bay, whom he delighted to aid,
and whose merit, when they displayed it,
he was quick to recognize and appreciate.
II never held political office except for
q few years, when he was Prosecutor OF
the Pleas of this county; but he always
took an active interest in the affairs OF his
city, his State and the nation, and his in
huence and eloquence have often turned
the scale in public matters of Importance.
mr.. Parker was a man of strong re-
ligious belief and active in the church with
which he was connected.
"As husband and father he was faithful,
respected, venerated, loved.
"Mr. Prrker was unique; a grand man;
grand in the probity of his character, in
the generosity Of his Judgment of others
and in his high sense Of honor.
His history is a part of the history of
the State, and his life may we'll be fol-
lowed as a guide to his professional
brethren.

Bar, who have long contemplated and adj

DOCTORS
WILL BE PUT
TO ROUT
Detectives Are on the Trail
of Resort FraudS==Ar-
rests to Follow.

ATLANTIC CITY, Aug. Aroused
by the disclosures of the wholesale IL
legal medical practise of so-called
doctors who reap a rich harvest
from unscphisticated hotel patrons
during the summer, local physicians,
headed by DIR. e. e. Parker, have
started a crusade to Jail offenders and
drive the frauds from the city. Arrests
of al least a dozen of the fraudulent
practitioners. against whom a corps of
private detectives have beer busily
gaining evidence, will be an early step
taken by the Atlantic City profession,
County Prosecutor Abbott having yes
terday notified DIR. Parker that his
office would cooperate in the move
ment.
The scandal of the illegal practise
of medicine in resort hotels will prob
ably involve both the county and the
State medical societies. Appeals have
been made to both sides, and lists of
legally examined doctors entitled to
practise in New Jersey have been for
warded to the local head of the cru
SADIE by Secretary John w Bennett,
of the State Board of Medical Exam
liners. Comparison of this list with
names of physicians whose spractise
has been traced by detectives, shows
that not one of a score or more have
taken the prescribed examinations.
Further investigation has shown that
strangers, claiming to be physicians,
have made agreements with hotel pro-
prietors to BOARD with their families
in the house for the ummer in return
for recommendations from the desk
when guests call for medical attend
ance. Some of these doctors" it is
alleged, are medical college students
who have failed to pass examinations
in any State, and without even thu
formality of opening an office are reap,
ing a richer harvest than many loca
physicians of high standing.
MANY local physicians suddenl,
found their lucrative hotel practis,
shut off" says DR.. Parker, "and in,
vestigation disclosed the presence of
small army of these unregistered prac-
t~itioners. While some few have small
practises in other States, which they
a give up for the summer, the ma
jority we intend to prove are unsuc-
cessful students Of the lowest charac-
ter, from Philadelphia and New YorB
institutions.
IIobSi piopiiStois dic Undoubtedly
ignorant of the conditions and of the
stern law on the subject, that requires
a license for every physician practising
in the State. Many of these "quacks''
are not alone able to cover their ex-
penses of a summer seashore outing,
but clear up big money besides. Our
detectives have found hat some of
these hotel doctors are really doing
a business larger than man. local
members of the profession who have
passed the stern New Jersey examina-
lions n have diplomas, and we in
tend to either run them GU of town
or put some of them in jail"

OLD DOREMUS BOARD
MEMBERS OF IT DEMAND
THEIR SALARIES.
City Counsel to Give Opinion to Council
on Claims of Nathan, Carroll
and Hedden.

David B. Nathan, Eugene c. Car
roll and Charles M. Hedden. who were
members of the Doremus Excise Board
which was supplanted between July "a
and August II last year by the
Bishops Law Board later declared
to be unconstitutional, are making a
concerted effort to get the city to pay
their salaries for that period. 1t is
understood that the matter will be
brought up in Common Council Friday
night, when an opinion from City
Counsel James r. Nugent will prob
ably be filed for the guidance of the
aldermen in disposing of the case.
There is a legal question as to
whether the old board is entitled to
salary, and the members desire to
have it settled one way or the other.
The amount involved is $53.75 for each
commissioner
July %. Of last year. Judge Jay Ten
Eyek appointed Richard C.. Jenkinson.
Eugene Ward, Edward Zusi and Edward
A. Campbell excise commissioners In ae-
eordance with the powers vested in him
bv the Bishops law. IN attack was
made upon the constitutionality of that
commission, and a short time after the
Supreme Court ruled that the new COM
mission was without legal standing,
In the meantime the two boards had
meetings. but the Doremus board did the
work. on August - the Bishops law
board" went o1t of existence, with the re-
suit that the next day the Doremus board
resumed its lone position. The board then
adjudged out Of power was paid for the
twenty days of it's existence, but the
Doremus board was not so fortunate.
Since that time there has been a question
as to whether the Doremus board should
not be paid because they We're illegally
put out of Office, by virtue of the Supreme
Court decision, and its confirmation a
short time ago by the Court Of Errors
and Appeals.
Messrs. Heddan, Carroll and Nathan
claim that they were the bona ide board
and did the work.
1t is understood that the law department.
has been asked to submit an opinion IN
the matter by the aforementioned COM
missloners, who are going TO leave no
stone unturned to reestablish their Legal
existence on the city books for the dis
puted twenty day period
The opinion Of those Interested in the
affair is that the commissioners VIII be
paid on the ground that the Bishops
law commission was never legally exist
ing. The question now arises whether th3
members Of the deposed board should b.
compelled TO refund the salaries the city
paid to its members Can they be made
pay it back" some ask. and some answer
Yes, 1t never had legal existence.
