Chief of Police p. j. Burke last
night refused to accept a prisonec
who was, arrested BY Edward Eng
lesen, special policemen In the ems
ploy of City Marshal R. A. .Peltier
A number Of warrants are served
by Englesen, who was appointed by
the council last year. In most cities
the warrants are served by the po-8
iicemen, but nearly all of tho war
rants written out by Recorder Pick
ersgill are turned over to the city
marshal, although once In while 4
constable is allowed to serve one.
When an arrest Is made BY the
city marshal or constable the name
of the prisoner is placed on the po-s
lice blotter, but when Englesen sery
es warrants, Chief Burke has refused
to allow the name to be placed on the
records and, when asked why. has
always stated that the arrest did not
come under his jurisdiction.
The chief says that he does hot
recognize the right of special Off
Ger to make an arrest any more than
any other citizen, and has said that
as there are a number of policemen.
the warrants could easily be served
by them.
On Monday Recorder PickersgiIi
wrote out a warrant for the arrest OF
a man named Alpert, who was charg-
ed by woman named Rebecca Ross
VOW with assaulting and attempting
to strike her. The warrant was given
to the city marshal and at 6:30
O'Clock last night Special Officer Eng-
lesen went to the police station with
Alpert. He asked the chief what he
should do with the man. The chief
refused to recognize the arrest and
Englesen and his prisoner left the po-
lice station.
Chief Burke says that he has
legal opinion on the matter and
thinks that two police departments"
are unnecessary.

The citizens of Roosevelt who, at a
mass meeting held in that borough
Saturday night drew up resolutions
protesting against the discharge of
teachers in the public schools without
apparent cause, were totally ignored
by the Board of Education of Roose-
welt which met last night. The COM
mittee was on hand with the set of
resolutions and announced that they
would like to be heard when the
board would give them the opportu-
nifty. The board continued with it's
work, and, as if the committee was
not waiting. passed a motion to ad-
journ and filed out of the room, leav-
ing the committee to follow without
having been heard.
1t was an adjourned meeting of the
board and the matter of teachers was
under consideration. Five names
were read off and all were re-appoint-

The Board of Freeholders held q
private conference yesterday after
noon In the court house at New
Brunswick and discussed the ques-
tion of granting franchise to the
Jersey Central Traction Company to
cross the draw and the three steel
spans on the county bridge. A num-
ber of prominent citizens of the coun-
ty were at the meeting and talked
the matter over with the board.
The Jersey Central company has
stated that it is willing to build a
bridge as far as the spans, and only
asks permission to use that portion
and the draw of the bridge.
The Public Service Corporation is
fighting the Jersey Central company
and the opposition may carry weight
with the freeholders in regard to
granting the franchise. Reporters
asked permission to attend yester-
days meeting. Freeholder Hanson,
with profuse explanations, said there
was nothing for publication and the
reporters were refused admittance.
The Board of Freeholders will hold
a public hearing on the question of
the Jersey Central's application next
Thursday, April "a, at New Bruins
wick, at which all who desire to
speak on the subject may do SO.
The question of the county budget
of appropriations for the coming fis-
cal year was also discussed at yester-
day afternoons proceedings, 1t is un-
derstood, and well-authenticated re-
port states that the budget will be
larger than previously. This, If it
proves true, will undoubtedly be be-
cause of increased court expenses.
