already long list of thefts which have

The rings were left on table in
the back room of the store, and the

port, said today, when asked about
the matter, that every thing possible
should be done to induce the govern
ment to bring the battleship here. Mr..
Carson said that Perth Amboy, being
the Oldest port in the state, is entitled
to the honor. He is heartily in favor
of carrying the idea through. Mr..
Carson stated that the vessels which
come in here to unload at local
wharves draw twenty-three feet.
The statistics of the battleship New
Jersey give it's mean draught as
twenty-three feet, nine inches. 1t
seems possible, therefore, that the
warship can come all the way in;
at least it can come well up the bay.
