JUSTICE REPAYS FINE
PROSECUTOR YOUNG AFTER
MILLBURN OFFICIAL.
Told Prisoner That He Was Court, Jury
and Judge and Heard No
Witnesses.

Alleged high-handed proceedings by JUS
tice of the Peace William Hackelton. of
Millburn, were laid low through the efforts
of the Prosecutors office today, as the re-
suit of an investigation made by Detective
George Howard. of the county staff. The
story dates back to May 81, when Mrs.
Sarah Goersch, a respectable married
woman with seven children, against whom
a warrant had been sworn out, charging
dlsorderly conduct, was fined s. and costs
of court amounting to seventy-five cents.
Mrs. Goersch had been in her garden
to a neighbor when q Mrs Soles
on the scene and, 1t Is said. shook
her fist at Mrs. Goersch for no apparent
reason. Then Mrs. Soles made a journey
to the Justice. who cited Mrs. Goersch to
appear before him. This Mrs. Goersch did,
and the justice is said to have simply
her how she pleaded to the charge.
Mrs. Goersch replied, Not guilty. and
the justice, after remarking, 1t is said,
he was the court, jury and judge,
imposed a fine and costs and refused to
the woman to produce her Witnesses.
AS she was too poor to pay the money,
order was made to send her to Jail.
Before that was done, however, her
friends got together and the fine and costs
were paid.
Then the matter got to the ears of the
county authorities, the whilom justice was
cited to appear before Prosecutor Henry
Young today, and the net result was that
he was ordered to pay back the money.
And he did.

Mr.. HANNA HOT
SAYS He DID NOT SLIGHT
MAYOR KENNY.
President of East Newark Board Of
Education Apparently in an
Indignant Mood.

President William Hanna of the East
Newark Board of Education was indignant,
apparently. when he related to the MEM
bers of the board at the meeting last night
that Mayor Edward Kenny of East New
ark chided him personally for not ex-
tending an invitation to him to the clos
ing exercises of the Borough School. which
were held at Jacobs's Hall, Harrison,
June %.
President Hanna alleged that the Mayor
went into the hall and stated to him that
he felt sighted at not being asked to at
tend the children's, play.
II am the Mayor of East Newark"
Hanna declared Mayor Kenny said, "and 1
consider this an insult"
Now I am going to tell this board"
was the presidents stern declaration. that
I don't intend to insult anybody, while I
am In This chair, and why would I want
to slight Mayor Kenny?
II don't think 1t was up to me to invite
the Mayor to the announcement exercises
Of our school. and IL he thinks that we
meant to slight him, why, he can continue
thinking so.
1.-TWO tickets were sent to me-" he
continued, and I went there myself and
found everything was satisfactory"
1t is said that Mr.. Hanna had prepared
a speech to deliver when presenting diplo-
mas to the graduates, but did not speak.

NEGROES QUIT PARTY
THINK DEMOCRATS WOULD
TREAT THEM BETTER.
One Hundred Organize in City and
Declare Change Of Political
Faith.

Because the Republican party. they de-
clare, has not done justice to the negro,
who almost as a unit have supported 1t in
the past, without receiving any recognition
for their faithfulness. so they claim,
about 100 negroes Of this city met last
night at 50 William street, effected a
Democratic organization and will endeavor
to show the negro voters of the State that
the only chance to get proper recognition
is to rally under the Democratic banner
The chief spirit In the movement to con-
vert the negro from the G. o. P. is Louis
s. Johnson. a former Republican county
committeeman, who resigned previous to
last fairs election, because he claimed
that he had not received proper treatment
on the committee. of which Major Carl
Lentz was chairman. After leaving the
committee last fall Johnson attempted TO
lead the negro voters from the beaten
path of Republicanism, but failed.
Some of the men who were opposed TO
changing their party last fall were en-
thusiastic Democrats last night. A num-
Der of speeches telling of the prosperity
and intelligence Of the negroes of this
county. and rehearsing the "scant cour-
tesy'' they a received from the Repub-
lican party in the past were made, and
the speakers sentiments that the only
remedy was to join the Democratic Thinks
and make themselves a power in the poll
tics of the State, were enthusiastically re-
ceived.
The following officers were elected: Pres
ident, Louis S. Johnson, Newark; vice
president, Joseph Jackson, Newark; sec
rotary, Elmer f. Duval, Newark; assistant
secretary, James Stats, Newark; treas
urer, William Jones, Orange; sergeant-at-
arms, Frank Powell; assistant sergeant
alarms, Charles c. Carvey.
President johnson stated that the work
would not be confined to Essex County,
but would be started in every county
throughout the State. OF the 1880 negro
voters in Essex County he was sure thai
a large number would become members OF
the organization.
The following letter from Mayor Haus-
sling was read at the meeting:
Mr.. Louis S. Johnson, Chairman:
Dear Sir-It gives me great pleasure to
greet the colored Democrats of the County
of Essex who gather together in conyen-
ton this evening. / earnestly trust that
the organization which / understand you
are about to effect will be of great GOOD
to the party and the community. Certainly
the work done by members OF your race
during the last campaign would. seem to
warrant that they will accomplish much
see the intelligent and earnest efforts
which the colored men of this country have
lately been putting forth. Yours very
truly. (Signed) JACOB HAUSSLING,
Mayor.

lMPROVERS APPEAL
TO HEALTH BOARD.
Clinton Hill Body Takes Up Alleged
Nuisance on Behalf of Two
Hundred Residents.

In response to a letter from the Clinton
Hill Improvement Association complaining
of fumes emanating from the brass novelty
works in Irvington, Just over the city
boundary lines. the Board of Health last
night decided to investigate the matter and
abate the same If found to be the nuisance
represented. The fact that the source of
the alleged nuisance is in another munich
palfty will be overcome by cooperation
with the State Board of Health and the
I%rvington authorities.
Several members of the board were of
the opinion that the matter was outside the
Jurisdiction of the board. which covers only
the city Of Newark Chairman H. c. H.
Herold, however, was of the opinion that
some action should be taken, and the
health officer, David Chandler, was in
structed to write the Clinton Hill Improve
ment Association hat the matter would be
investigated and steps taken, through the
State Board of Health, to abate It, II a
compromise agreement could not be
reached.
Attention was called to the fact that a
similar condition existed In the case of
another factory several years ago, and at
that time the board was powerless to af-
ford relief. The case of Georgia vs.. Ten
nessee, relative to the copper fumes at
Ducktown was recited in rebuttal, this
case having been decided by the United
States Supreme Court in favor of the plain
tiff.
1t is stated that 200 residents of the
Clinton Hill section are annoyed by the
fumes.

DICKlNSON'S CAT
FOUGHT FIREMAN.
Jersey City Truck Company Called Out
to Rescue Starving Maltese Tom
from Top of Tree.

JERSEY CITY, July 3.-Captain John
Harms, of Truck Company No. Q. in
Ninth street, between Grove and Erie
streets, this city, received orders from
fire headquarters by telephone to take
his crew and apparatus to the club
house of the Samuel d. Dickinson AS
sociation, at Sixth street and Jersey
avenue. ~
There's a big Maltese tom cat up
a dead tree on the Sixth street side,'
said the man at headquarters. HE has
been roosting there for two days and
is as hungry as blazes. Get him down
as quick as you can and see that your
men are gentle with him."
When the truck reached the corner
the tom cat was perched in a crotch
about thirty feet from the ground,
mewing piteously. A thirty-five foot
ladder was placed against the trunk
and Truckman George Fallahee. Skinned
up to the top. AS he was about to nab
the cat the Maltese ran thirty feet
higher and continued his caterwauiing.
The firemen put their seventy-five
foot extension ladder into commission.
and Frank Baldwin, the company's
driver, volunteered to rescue the cat.
Three minutes later the fireman
caught the cat by the back of the neck
and the animal fought desperately ~
get away. He bit Baldwin in the right
hand several times, ant 200 persons who
witnessed the battle in midair held
their breaths. Baldwin was finally

LETTERS DELAYED
WEIGHING ORDER HARD ON
POSTOFFICE FORCE.
Nothing Doing as to Ten Extra Clerks
Asked For During Six
Months Test.

From one to eight hours now elapse
between the time a letter is mailed al
the local office and 1t is dispatched
This delay is due to a new order is
sued by the Postoffice Department In
Washington, by which every piece of
mail originating at the local office must
be sorted into it's respective class and
weighed before 1t is dispatched, and
the fact that the clerical force at the
office, despite the additional ten clerks
just taken on, Is inadequate to do the
work of the office.
Several weeks ago Postmaster Hays sent
a request to Washington asking for sixteen
new clerks. The department authorized
him TO take on ten additional clerks, and
the clerks went TO work this morning,
as stated in the EVENING STAR yester-
day. Last year Mr.. Hays requested ten
new clerks and was authorized to employ
five new men.
When the order demanding the weighing
of the mails was issued early in June the
local Office was instructed to make requisi-
ton for the temporary appointment OF adj
ditional help to look after this extra work,
and wrote to the department at Washing
ton requesting the right to employ ten
substitute clerks during the six months
the mails are to be weighed.
A representative of the department then
visited the local office and after looking
over the ground Informed Mr.. Hays that
his estimate was a conservative one. and
that he would recommend the employment
of five subst ing July l,
on which date the new order went into
effect. So far no word authorizing the
employment of the extra help has been
received, despite the fact that several in
quirles have been sent to Washington, ask
ing that the necessary permission be given.
Expecting the permit to employ the
clerks to look after this work
several clerks In the mailing department
started on their vacations and these men
been recalled and are now working
several extra hours every day, and yet it
is impossible to catch up, and as a con-
sequence the mails are delayed ms stated.
William Luckemeir, superintendent of
mails at the Postoffice, has been busy every
night from midnight June 80 directing the
work of weighing the mails, and today said
that he did not think the present conges-
tion would be relieved for some time. He
is working short-handed and intimated that
granted their request for the five addi-
tional men as soon as 1t was made.
Asked as to the increasing hours Of de-
lay, t~wenty-four hours at the point of des-
t~ination, Mr.. Luckemeir said that this was
by the pouches missing connec-
lions for Western points. He said the task
was a big one. the public having no con-
ception of the amount of work the order
entails. especially In sorting the mail into
the several classes.

MARY Id R HER
LOAD IN THE AUTO.
Policeman Tully Was Dazed When He
Saw Old Offender in
Machine.

The sight of Mary McCree. known
to every bluecoat in Newark, i'll an
automobile in Market street at noon
was too much for Policeman Michael
Tully, of the First Precinct station, so
he started to investigate. Mary had
gone along Market street with a pre-
liminary Fourth of JULY jag.
Mary had evidently taken anu extra
large load which she found she could
not carry all at once. So, seeing a big
touring car standing at Beaver street,
she got into the machine.
Mary started to get busy with the
machinery, but the best she could was
to blow the horn. Mary sounded it
several times, bu found that the ma
chine stood still while she thought she
was moving in circles and going up a.
hill.
Tully has seen some strange sights
during his service at the Four Cor
ners, but when he spotted Mary at the
wheel of the auto, he thought that he
had been sun struck, and he stood
dazed at the sight of the buxom Mary,
as chaffeuse.
