SUNDAY BAND PLAYING.
salvationists Can Keep 1t Up, If Chief
of Police Says So.

There will be street parades, brass
bands and Salvation Army street meet
ings in Newark on Sunday If the chief
OF police sees fit to grant the permit.
The Police Board discussed the matter
yesterday afternoon.
Commissioner Castle started the ar
gument, which gave promise OF enliv-
ening the meeting for a short time.
The board, however, decided that a
brass band on Sunday was not harm
full. and therefore would be permitted
as they have been in the past.
Commissioner Castle wanted to know
from Chairman Bladder IL it was Gus
tomary for the board to grant permits
for street parades such as were seen
last Sunday. President Bladder replied
that 1t was the custom so far as he
knew for the chief of police to pass
upon that question.
you would not want the Salvation
Army to be prevented from saving
souls on Sunday" asked Commissioner
Harrigan.

tie.

RECORDS DISAPPEARED
IN EXCISE CASE.
Judge Ten Eyck Therefore Finds It
Difficult to Decide Bloomfeld's
Saloon Arrest.

A peculiar condition of affairs was dis
closed in Common Pleas Court. at the
opening of the September term, this morn
ing, when the appeal from a Justices de-
cision, brought by Barley Giblin. a saloon
keeper in Bloomfield, was called for trial
by Judge Ten Eyck.
On July is, last, Giblin was convicted
before Recorder George w. Cadmus, of
Bloomfield, on a charge OF violating the
liquor laws of Bloomfield. A fine OF 800
was imposed and the appeal to the Com
mon Pleas Court taken.
In some manner all the papers in the
case, with the exception of the bond and
the notice of appeal. were lost by Recorder
Cadmus. and in the sworn affidavit filed
by Mr.. Halfpenny it was set forth that the
recorder was not in a position to replace
them.
James NJ. Trimble. representing the APP
pelant. asked that the judgment be dis
missed. c. H. Halfpenny, counsel for the
town of Bloomfield, concurred In this mo-
ton. saying that there seemed to be no
other way out of the difficulty. But the
court asked counsel to agree on a status OF
the case. This was done and the court
took the matter under advisement.
Giblin had been convicted on a similar
charge some weeks before this alleged vio-
lation and a fine of $40 was imposed. This
case was also appealed, but Giblin paid HIS
fine and the appeal was dismissed.
