NEW TRUST CO. FOR
So. BROAD ST. TO
Be THE NEWARK
Organizers Expect to Get Char
ter from State Commits
siOner Watkins.
Especial 70 the Evening star.l

TRENTON, Nov. 24.-Details of the
new trust company which is to be
operated in the interests of the mer-
chants of Broad street, south of Mar
ket street, Newark, were made public
today by delegation of seven mem
bers of the South Broad Street Mer-
chants Association, who came here to-
day to obtain a charter for the insti-
tuition from State Banking and Insur-
ance Commissioner David o. Watkins
1t is to be known as the Newark
Trust Company, and will have an au-
thorized capital of 100000 and paid
in surplus of $4,000. It's banking rooms
will be at S53 Broad street. Waters B
Day is to be president, and the vice
presidents will be Ferdinand r. Noel
Ter, Theodore f. Keer and Frank M
Schultz.
In the delegation which called on
Commissioner Watkins were Robert b
Stoutenburgh, Roland D., Crocker, DR.
e. N. Richmond, w. A. Baker and
Messrs. Moeller, Keer and Schultz.
Mr.. Watkins at first was not favor
ably impressed with the application for
charter, declaring his belief that
there was no demand for such an in
stitution. But the committee impressed
on him the necessity for such an insti-
tuition south of Market street, urging
the demands being made by the many
large business houses there. Not only
was it matter Of necessity and con-
venience, but they mentioned the con-
slant danger there is in crossing busy
Market street with money.
After discussing the matter for near
ly an hour Mr.. Watkins said he would
take the matter under advice and
would give an answer later in the day.
For that reason the members of the
Newark committee decided to remain
at the capital to receive the answer
There was very strong belief that the
charter would be granted. This was
based on the statement of Commits
sioner Watkins that he merely desired
few hours time in which to look over
the securities offered as the paid-in
surplus of the new bank.

ported.

The robbers who entered Mr. w. G..
Sease' residence on last Saturday
did not take the silver as was report
ed. Mrs. Sease returned from the
trip to the mountains Of North Caro-
lima on "Wednesday. When told OF
the robbery she said that she had
take the precaution before leaving
home on her summer vacation to put
the best Of her silverware away. She
therefore to avoid any trouble, had
opened one or two mattresses. and
placed the silver in them and then
sewed them up again and placed them
on the bottom Of the beds. Mr..
Sease was not aware OF this fact. and
upon investigating the matter he
found that the silver was all safe
and sound, and that none OF the
very fine pieces had been bothered.
Mr.. Sease said, however that
there was no doubt as to his house
having been entered, for there were
other things which were missing, and
a number of ornaments about the
several rooms which had been brok-
en-, and money was gone. A bank
belonging to the baby had been open
ed and the contents taken out. the
house was all topsy turvy. and there
we're things gone, which it would re-
uuire some time to discover that they
had been taken.

TIE MAYOR ACTS.

l'OIJCE.
III RiG;ns the City of All Suspicious
Pcrsos,s by Reporting Them When

SCcn.
During the past year there has
been many robberies committed in
Orangebu-g, and only very few OF
the robbers have been run down, and
punished. In the last few weeks
several rohberies have been success
fully carried ont and several others
attempted One of the worst was that
of the residence Of Mr. w. X. Seas.
on Broushton Street. On Monday
night so.le one tired to break in the
jewellery store of Mr.. Wise on Russell
Street. and on Tuesday night some
one tried TO enter the residence ofMr.
Ed. a. Zeigier on Railroad Avenue.
The frequent robberies and bold
attempts at robbery have made our
people somewhat nervous, and May
or Dukes has determined that they
shall cease. TO this end he has
issued request to the citizens Of
the city to report to the police
department or to the Mayor the pre-
serce OF any suspicious persons seen
or found lettering about the city
either day or night. We hope the
people will act on the suggestion Of
Mayor Dukes and report all suspici-
Gus looking people. There are many
who believe that the Ese Frs who are
operating in this cits strangers.
and white men. but We do not believe
this to be the. case. We believe that
the there's are negroes, who may ne
strangers. White men could not con-
ceal their identity, but negroes can.
The following is the full text of
Mayor Dukes notice to the people:
THE citizens of the City are re-
quested to report to the police de-
partment-phones Al and Cor to.

picious persons seen or found loiterE1
ing about the City. night Or day.
Let the people cooperate with the
Mayor and the police, and soon the
light fingered gentry will be run
down or seeking a more congenial
cline These nightly raids upon our
residences and stores must be stop
ped. Is the thieves are white men
the Mayor has hit on the plan to
uncover them.
In the meantime we would advise
the people to keep cool and not shoot
at supposed robbers unless they are
sure that they are. robbers. Other
wise Some citizen might be shot and
Killed. e would be well also for the
police net to become welded to the
idea that the robbers are white men.
because they may be negroes. and 1t
would he well for them to keep an
eye on the ioafing vagarants OF that
race WHO may be domiclled here fer
the present.
