BREAKING OF
STONE TO BE
CONTINUED f?
Grand Jury So Recon-
mends in Report on
Caldwell Institution.

Though the newly established hand
kerchief industry at the Caldwell PEN
itentiary gives employment to about
100 prisoners, a subcommittee of the
Grand Jury, which recently visited the
institution, has recommended that the
stone-breaking by the inmates be con
tinued.
The committee consisted of Charles
w. Baker, Charles r. Underwood and
James Valentine. The report of the
committee was submitted to the Board
of Freeholders.
In speaking about the visit and in
spection of the ~penitentiary by the
Grand Jury a member said yester-
day:
I'VE We're impressed at the general
ineffectiveness of our penal system as a
means of preventing crime, but we
recognize that radical reforms are not
within the power of this body"
The committee found half a dozen
cells without sufficient lights. These
were located in the, west wing of the
building.
In the report it is also stated that an
isolation hospital should be provided in
the event of an outbreak of a con-
tagious disease at the institution.

PUBLICITY TO
!, BE TRUSTS
POLICY
King SpreckeIs Wins
in Fight on Hayemeyer
Secrecy Plan.

JERSEY CITY, Jan. ~S.-Publicity in
tho affairs OF the American Sugar Re-
fn;ng Company will be the policy fav-
ored by w. B. Thomas, acting president
of that company. according to an an
nouncement which he made at the an
nual meeting of the stockholders here
today. On hat point there have been
several contests by the stockholders.
Claus A. Spreckels declared before the
meeting that he was determined to dis
cover what property the company owned
n where the property of the company
ends, and the estate of II. o. Have
meyer begins. +
Mr.. Thomas presided at the annual
meeting today. He said that he be-
lieved Mr.. Havemeyer's policy had been
fully justified in the past, but that now
a policy of publicity is desirable, in
view of the conditions which corpora
lions confront. He added that he was
heartily in favor of this policy and
hoped to put it into effect.
The directors were of the opinion. he
said, hat a substantial reserve should
be maintained to meet the exigencies
of business. Whatever reserve there
was belonged to the stockholders. The
policy of doing as large a business as
possible at small profits, and of MAIN
tanning the strength of the company's
position, would be followed by the di-
rectors unless otherwise instructed.
The business in the past year had
been satisfactory and the company is
in a strong financial condition, Mr..
Thomas said. He advocated increasing
the number of directors from seven to
nine.
Claus A. Spreckles moved, and the
stockholders adopted a motion, that a
full statement of the properties and
subsidiary companies owned by the
American Sugar Refining Company
should be made.
John E. Parsons, of New York, and
G. H. Frazier, of Philadelphia, were re-
elected directors, and Horace Have
meyer was chosen a director to succeed
his father, the late president.
The bylaws were amended so as to in
crease the Loard of directors from seven
to nine.

card parties in the West End club
house during the season, the proceeds
to be used for the benefit of the in

TO Tenants.

NEW YORK, Jan. 8.-Scenes of great

dred families are to be dispossessed for
non-payment of rent. Reserves from all
police stations in Manhattan and the
Bronx are on the east side to aid in
maintaining order and quell any at
tempts at r1oting.
Many of the tenants who stood firmly
by their conviction until they realized
that their goods were to be piled on the
wet pavement in front of their homes
lost their defiant attitude and went to
the landlord to pay him the old rental.
In most cases, however, it was refused,
the landlords declaring that they intend
to make examples of the families who
stood for the strike and tried to get
other tenants to join them in the move
ment.
Lawyers leaders of the socialist
body under whose auspices the strike
for lower rents was instigated, started
out at an early hour to talk with the
families who were to be put out n
told them that, no matter what hap
pened, they must be orderly. They
would be taken care of, was the prom
Use.
There is talk of the strikers attor-
news appealing to some Supreme Court
justice today to enjoin city marshals
from executing the order of the lower
courts, but no such step has yet been
taken.
Although twenty-five landlords, con-
trolling the homes of 500 families,
yielded to the strikers demands yester-
day. the majority of the property own
ers and lessees nave decided to stand
pat.
Mrs. j.. G. Phelps Stokes, who is taxi

ASSESSMENT ON

Mt. Pleasant Authorities.

The appeal made by the Mt. Pleasant
Cemetery Company to set aside the
$1,000 assessment levied against a
seven and a quarter acre strip of lane
lying just to the rear of the graveyard
and bordering on the river front was
denied by the County Board of Taxa
ltion yesterday on the advice of County
Counsel Elvin w. Crane.
Chandler w. Riker made the claim,
that the property was part of the
cemetery and exempt from taxation.
As This strip is generally submerged
and unfit for burial purposes, and is
not used for cemetery purposes, the
board decided that no other course
was open but to deny the appeal. Mr..
Crane was of the same opinion.

FIGHT FOR
OPENING ON
SUNDAY
Picture Men Form
Organization advance
Liberal" Plea.

Efforts will be made, it is understood,
various local moving-picture theatres
in the neal future to reopen for bust
ness on Sundays. They have been n
couraged by the decisions of the high
courts in several of the leading cities
of the country, and with the Roadway
the, New Workers are making they be-
lieve that their attempt here will be
successful.
A meeting of those interested was
held in the office of Rudolph A. Braun
yesterday afternoon and a permanent
organization was formed. 1t will be
known as the Moving-picture Exhibit
ors' and Protective Association. Henry
Rorbrecht was elected temporary
chairman and George l.. Black secre-
tary. Twelve of the fourteen local
theatres were represented.
In addition to fighting against the
Sabbath closing the managers will en-
deavor to>get better recognition from
the board of underwriters and the city
officials. Rules and bylaws will be sub
mitted at the text meeting of the asso-
citation, and Mr.. Braun was authorized
to proceed with the fight.
The majority of the places were
opened throughout the city until several
weeks ago, when they were ordered
closed. Since that time the local the
aires have been having sacred per-
formances on Sunday nights.
This is a cosmopolitan city, and the
working class who favor a liberal Sun
day want it, said one of the managers
today. at is for their interest as well
as our own that we are fighting. We
pay the same license as the big theatres
n while their admission reaches as
high as 50 a seat very often, the best we
get is five cents. Our understanding Is
that Mayor Haussling is not opposed to
our being open on Sunday and the opin-
ion of the Common Council is believed
to be the same. We want only what is
right and believe in equality for all"
Mr.. Braun, who will be a member CT
the next Legislature, and who may in
troduce q liberal excise bill, stated that
he understood that Assemblyman Mar
tin intended to sc%rutinize the old blue
laws adopted ear ago and which have
outgrown their usefulness with a view
of having them. amended.
Several of the moving picture places
are controlled by large metropolitan
corporations. If the police decide to in
terfere an injunction preventing them
from doing so may be secured.
