WlTTPENN AND DIXON
DISCUSS TAX RELIEF.
Jersey City oficials Likely to Ask At
torney-General for Help in
Railroad Fight.
Especial to the Evening Star. ]

JERSEY CITY, Jan. B.-Mayor H. Otto
wittpenn had a conference today with
Corporation Counsel Warren Dixon on the
decision Of the Court OF Errors in the
method of assessing second-class railroad
property. -.
Mayor Wittpenn considered that it might
be well to consult with Attorney-Generaf
McCarter with a view to ascertaining what
the State proposes to do to help the va
rious municipalities out of the hole into
which they have been plunged by this de-
cislon. Mayor Wittpenn believes that legls-
1ation is necessary TO aid Jersey city,
which stands to lose, according to Mayor
Wittpenn's estimate, at least 100000 in
taxes from the railroads.
AS the Legislature has a Republican ma
jority 1t will be necessary to secure lesls-
lation that has the approval OF that ma
jority. The best thing, according TO Mayor
Wittpenn's view, is to take counsel with
the Attorney-G General. who pronounced the
Perkins act that was knocked out, to be
constitutional. It is up to the Attorney
General to n a remedy for the Ills the
municipalities ave fallen heir to by rea-
son of the legislation that was sanctioned
by him.
Nearly every municipality in Hudson
County is hit hard by the decision of the
Court of Errors. and Mayor Wittpenn Is
considering the advisability Of calling a
meeting Of mayors and their legal adj
visers to determine what shall be done TO
secure legislation.

JOB
IN FAMILY
Meyer zemel Won't Observe
Jewish Sabbath Variety
Of Court ActiOus.

Because he persisted in working on
Saturday, the Jewish Sabbath, Meyer
Zemel, of 81 Jones street, is on bad
terms with his wife's relatives, who are
very religious. They say that Zemel,
who is married to a rabbits daughter,
is money mad" They want the young
mar to give up working on Saturday
because it reflects on his fa~ther-in-law.
Zemel has, refused, and he has had
much trouble with his wife as a result.
He was taken before Judge Howell In
the First Criminal Court this morning
on a charge of threatening her. Pre-
vious to that he was arrested for nom
uppor and there is also an action
against him for an alleged violation Of
the bottling law. He was represented
by his counsel, Michael II. Barrett.
An effort will be made to patch up the
family squabble, but Zemel, who is now
out on bail, declares that he will not
quit work on Saturday.

OPPOSED BY
ALDERMAN
Meyer to Fight Them in
Council Police TO Make
Sunday Arrests.

Alderman Eugene G. Meyer, Of the
Ninth Ward, Republican minority
leader, has started a crusade against
the "Nickeldromes," or moving picture
theatres in the city, and declares that
he will make an effort to have the Ii
censes of such places made SO prohibit
tive that they will be driven out of
business, and in the meantime will take
steps to see hat they do not remain
open on Sunday, or attempt to remain
open.
"They are a menace to the moral
city," declared Alderman Meyer, land
to see the youngsters that go go into
these places and sometimes see things
that they should not see and then
thirst for worse scenes, is d~isgraceful,
and 1 will bring the matter to the at
tentiop of the police and license COM
mittees of the Common Council"
Alderman Michael f. Mullen, chair
man of the police committee, expressed
himself as being in accord with the
crusade of the Ninth Ward Alderman,
and expressed his willingness to CO.
operate with him.
The moving picture men have stated
that they will remain open on Sun
days, and are now organizing to make
a test case by remaining open and then
fighting the matter in court.
The picture men 10 receive a license
for six days a week, at 81 per day. the
days being specified by excluding Sum
days. The licenses are issued by the
week by the City Clerks office at Sc
per week for the six weekdays of the
week.
The pole are ready to arrest the pro-
prietors of any of the nickeldromes in
question, of which there are eleven or
twelve, on the first attempt they make
to open up on Sunday, and one of the
charges will be that they were operat-
ing without a license and were new
granted licenses for Sunday nor paid
for the same.
The picture men commended that in
New York the courts granted an order
restraining the police from closing the
theatres on Sunday pending the deci-
sion of the case, but in this State, as
is told above, the licenses are by the
week of six days per week, Sunday ex-
Guided. while in New York no such
distinction is made, the license being
to conduct the theatre for the year.
