sessions were held in the Presbyter-
ian church, morning, afternoon and

The program was carried out with

ing to those in charge was the num-
Der of men who attended. Perhaps
the greatest feature of the event was
the address of Mrs. A. b. Parsells.
She showed herself to be one of the

gether with the election of officers.
Luncheon was served by the mem
bers of the South Amboy union.
Reports from some of the COM

Actions Brought by Rssidsnts In
Vicinity of Works In Me-
ChaniC Street..
DOYLE SUIT
Reported That Company Has Pnr-
chased Property Owned BY Plain
tiffs-Mr ROessIsr Declines 10
Discuss Mattsr Today.

Lawyer Joseph e. Stricken has Sc
cured a settlement of double suits
brought by five Mechanic street resi-
dents against the Roessler & Hass-
lacher Chemical Company, some of
which have been pending for the past
year or two. The cases were brought
by Anton Satskorsky, Jocab Marcin-
ak, Frank Mikayca, Fran Vernicki
and andre Konopka.
They sued for amounts to cover
the expenses they said they were
compelled to expend for physicians g
services, as a result of the alleged
nuisance which the chemical company
maintained at their Mechanic street
plant near DeKalb avenue, which is
nown as plant No. 2.
Joseph e. Strioker, who represent
ed the five plaintiffs, said this morn
ing that the cases had been satisfac-
torily settled. 1t is reported that the
Roessler & Hasslacher Company has
purchased the land and buildings,
adjoining their plant, which the
plaintiffs owned. Mr.. Roessler, when
asked about the matter this morning,
intimated that the newspapers could
say what they wished. He would not
say whether or not the cases had been
settled. nor in what manner.
This is the conclusion Of an inter-
esting procedure, which commenced
with the famous Doyle suit few
years 80. Mr.. Stricken fought that
case to the end and gained a victory.
He started suit for his present Ave
clients more than a year ago and a
few weeks ago he issued papers in
another suit of the same men against
the chemical company, to cover the
alleged suffering and inconvenience
they have undergone since starting
of the previous action. The cases
were to have been tried in the su-
preme court this week and the plain
tiffs were sanguine, owing to deci-
sfons of the Supreme Court, Court
Of Errors and Appeals and U. 8.
Chancery Court, In the Doyle case.
Joseph e. Stricken was attorney
for the plaintiffs and in the original
actions, G. G. Hommann was associat-
ed with him. Alan H. Strong repre-
sented the defendants.

TugbOat Used in
Place of the
Perth AmbOy.
IN MIDSTREAM
EsrTryhOat Taken As Far As Tot
tenViIIe Slip BY Hand Power,
Passengers Miss Train
Vehicles Held Up On
Both Shores.

The engine of the ferryboat Perth
Amboy broke down at 8 o'clock this
morning and the tugboat Arthur Kill
was secured to transport passengers
between this city and Tottenville.
All traffic for horses, wagons and
automobiles was blocked for several
hours.
The Perth Amboy left this city at
$3.50 o'clock this morning with a
number of passengers. When about
half way across the sound something
happened to the engine and 1t had
10 be stopped. Although there was
a heavy fog, Captain Androvette was
able to discern the Tottenville slip
and finally landed.
Ia the engineers room there is a
long rod for the purpose of moving
the machinery by hand, and 1t is
used in the slip after the engines
have been stopped, while a landing
Is being made. Engineer LaFevre
with the aid of this lever, slowly
worked the boat into the slip. Pro-
gress was slow and 1t was 9;07
O'Clock when the Tottenville side
was reached.
The $3.50 o'clock boat from this
city connects with train at Totem
sytlle, but the train did not wait for
tl,t- 1tardy boat and the passengers
on the Perth Amboy, who were
bound for New York, had to wait an
hour.
Captain Androvette told q report
er, who made a trip on the tugboat,
that this was the second time that
an accident of this kind had happen
ed. The captain said that 1t was
also lucky that the fog was not as
dense this morning as yesterday,
otherwise there might have been SER
ious results.
Engineer LaFevre said that the
accident was due to nook and arm
on the machinery in the engine room
becoming fast, and that it would be
three or four hours before the boat
would again be in service. The re-
pair work was rushed and every eff
fort made to have the boat running
this afternoon.
AS soon as the Tottenville slip
was reached, after the accident, Cap
tain Androvette made arrangements
with the tugboat Arthur Kill, which
was lying nearby, to carry passen-
gers in place of the Perth Amboy
The tug is speedy and can carry a

horses, wagons and automobiles
were out of the question. The tug
made its first trip from Tottenville
to this city at $3.50 o'clock and the
first trip to TottenvilIe at $3.50.
The regular schedule was carried
out while the ferryboat was being
repaired in the Tottenville slip. The
deckhands Of the Perth Amboy as
sisted the passengers on and off the
tug, which landed them on the ferry
boat at Tottenville and on the bridge
in this city.
Several of the women passengers
became frightened when the engine
broke down, but their fears were
soon over when they saw that the
boat would be landed safely.
There were two automobiles wait
ing on the Tottenville side at 10
o'clock and at the local slip there
was quite a large lineup all morning.
The motorists were considerably
wrought up.
