REV. BURKE
is BARRED

TRENTON, Mar. 20:--After inves-
tigating charges of conspiracy against
Assemblymen Perkins, of Union;
Klenert, of Passaic, and Alexander,
of Hudson, by j. Frank Burke, of
Newark, superintendent of the Anti
Saloon League, the house of assem-
bly,. sitting as committee of the whole,
decided that the charges were un-
founded and barred Mr.. Burke from
the privileges of the floor of the
house.
Mr.. Burke's charges were that the
three members mentioned, as mem
bers of the Judiciary committee, had
conspired to prevent the local option
excise bill from being reported out of
that committee.
The examination of witnesses and
taking of testimony consumed nearly
three hours, and at the conclusion
the following resolution was adopt
ed by a unanimous vote.
Whereas, The committee finds
and reports that the statement made
by j. Frank Burke, charging mem
bers of the judiciary committee with
agreeing to prevent the reporting of
assembly bill No. 254, known as the
local option bill, is false, without any
foundation in fact; and that said
Burke has used unfair means and cir
culated false reports for the purpose
of intimidating the members of said
committee; be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of
the committee that said J. Frank
Burke be severely censured, his tao
tics condemned and that he be here
after forbidden the privileges of the
floor of this house"
An attempt was made to mitigate
the punishment by simply reprimand-
ing Mr. Burke, but by vote of Al to
the proposition was voted down.
