FLIGHT AFTER
FAILURE IN
LOVE
Missing Married Mans En-
plOyers Miss MOney--Girl's
Identity Hidden.

After failing to induce a young girl
with whom he had been acquainted for
several months to elope with him,
Charles j. Sheppard, a married man,
suddenly left the employ of the Essex
Lace Curtain Works, 2S0 Washington
street, yesterday.
About an hour after he had gone
Charles l.. Cameron, treasurer of the
for $168 were missing. This morning a
warrant was sworn out for Sheppard 8
arrest. The police went to New York
last night and visited well-known
haunts of Sheppard in the hope of ar
resting him, but he failed to appear at
any or even at his home, 20 Duryea
street, this city.
The police refuse to divulge the name
of the girl, and at the Essex Lace
Curtain Works they are equally reti-
cent about giving It. However, 1t is
known that she was at one time en-
ployed there and that both the man
and the girl had at one time intended
to elope.
Late yesterday afternoon woman
called at the First Criminal Court and
asked Clerk Freeland If he could not
prevent her daughter from eloping with
Sheppard. Freeland said that he had
no authority to act in the matter.
The woman, who refused to give her
name when help was denied her, said
that Sheppard and her daughter had
been in love for some time, and that
from letter she sfound among her
daughters effects she said that they
had determined to elope.

Commissioner George A. Lambert at the
meeting of the Board of Works today
brought up the question Of denders for
trolley cars. stating that the city engi-
neer had said he would be ready to report
on proper fender today.
City Engineer Sherrerd stated that he
needed more time to investigate the 800
differnt STYLES of tenders, and that he
would need money to carry on the inves-
tigation.
Commissioner Lambert stated that the
North Jersey Street Railway Company
had promised several months ago to try
some new Tenders, but so far has failed to
do so, "and they never will" he added,
IF they are not made"
The commissioner cited the practise n
vogue in some cities, where motormen
were taken off their cars and placed under
arrest when the fender on the car they
were operating was not up to the required
specifications.
Commissioner Book said that some time
ago Colonel Hine. representing the trac-
tion company, had agreed to have a guard
over each wheel, and should be made live
up to their agreement
City Engineer Sherrerd called attention
to the fact that, under the ordinance, a
number of cars could be taken off where
the tenders were in bad condition.
Commissioner Eggers made a motion that
Trolley Inspector Joseph Crawford be in
strueted to order the removal of all faulty
lenders

for Exceeding Speed Limit
in Streets OF City.

This was "automobile day" in the
Second Precinct Police Court, Judge
Herr having seven cases to dispose of,
some of them having been postponed
from last week.
The first case was that of Frank
Simms, 2S years old, of AZ Williamson
street, employed by Russell & Robinson,
of Frelinghuysen avenue and Earl
street. He was arrested at
man Lindcr of the motorcycle squad
for violation of the speed limit Though
driving the machine at eighteen miles
an hour Simms contended he was
within the speed limit of twelve miles.
1t was case of veracity between the
officer and Simms.
Benjamin F. Robinson, of the above
firm, testified that Simms had been in
his employ long time, that he was a
careful driver, sober and reliable, and
when he heard of his arrest he was
much surprised.
A good-natured discussion ensued be-
tween Judge Herr and Mr.. Robinson
on the speed and merits of automobiles.
The case terminated in a fine of $25
being imposed.
Ernest J. Rogers, 2s years old of
42 Williamson street, Bloomfield,

motorcycle squad. Rogers paid the
fine.

street, was charged by Policeman Flat
boy, of the Second Precinct, with driv-
ing his machine at terrible speed in
Summer avenue just as a crowd of
children were leaving the school there.

policeman, that all he could do was
to get the number Of the machine. The
officer jumped on a trolley car and fol-
lowed the machine down to Broad
street.
DR.. Siederman denied the charges
and said that it was case of mistaken
identity. He claimed that at the time
he was alleged to be in Summer ave-
nue. he was at the Eye and Ear In
firmary in Central avenue, that he had
registered his name on the book there,
and that when he went to the hos
pital he had his 9-year-old daughter
with him in the auto
The case was continued until tomor-
row and the doctor told to produce his
daughter in court as witness.

of whom were charged with violation
of the speed limit, were adjourned to
