SHOENTHAL SUED
MAYOR OF 0RANGECHARGED
WITH LIBEL.
Chairman of Council Brings Action for
$4,000 Damages for Alleged State
ments About Fire Truck.

Declaration has been filed in the Court
House in an action for $4,000 damages
brought by Daniel G. Bury, chairman OF
the fire department committee OF orange,
in the suit for libel instituted against
Mayor Shoenthal. of that city, as told IN
the EVENING STAR yesterday.
The action is based on an alleged libel
by Mayor Shoenthal in a political speech,
when he is alleged to have declared that
an attempt was being made to mulct the
city of 5000 IN connection with the pnr-
chase OF n new hook and ladder truck
with chemical attachments and fire tower.
William A. Lord is looking after the
plaintiffs Interests.
It is charged in the document that the
language used by the Mayor was defama-
tory, and the impression that
the Republicans had profited financially
by the fire truck transaction.
1.-THE deal for the new fire tower was
made In q Turkish bath house in New
ark" Is part of the language attributed
to the Mayor. which is objected to. other
things to which Bury takes exception are
as follows:
"At the last meeting of the Common
Council it was conclusively shown that
the Republican members of the Common
Council will not hesitate to falsify facts
in order to deceive the people. ! refer to
the proposed purchase of a new fire truck
which ] vetoed because it was proposed
10 pay out 5000 more than was necessary.
Il consider this matter a public scandal.
I have In my possession data to prove
that In this scheme the Republican coun-
Gil was deliberately attempting to mulct
the city of $500.
ii was falsely stated IN the Republic
can 'latform. as well IS on the floor Of
the Council chamber, that 1 had receded
from my attitude in the matter. 1'nc
statement Is utterly false. For some rea-
son unknown to me the chairman of the
fire committee was very anxious to have
me withdraw my message. ] refused to
do so and told him and the fire commit
tee that ] would sign a resolution to re-
advertise for bids, as ! had been assured
that lower figures would be given. The
committee did not readvertise and my
attitude remains unchanged.
Il reiterate what / said in my message
that ! will not stand Cor the city being
mulcted and this attitude / intend to main-
fair- The fire department Of the city is
being odtrageously managed"
