Church Theft, a Pleader.

Many pleas of guilty were made by
indicted offenders in the Court of Quar-
ter Sessions before Judge Ten Eyck to-
day. They were read by Grand Jury

the uncertainties of a trial that there
was an unusually large percentage of
the pleaders that admitted their guilt.
James Coleman, a muscular negro,
headed the list. He was charged with
a most remarkable theft, that of a 800
church organ, a $50 piano and other
property belonging to the Bethlehem
Congregational Church, of AS Arlington
street. The church was robbed April
q last.

Mrs. Sulk further testified that after
her husband returned home he took her

BLOOMFIELD BOARD
OF TRADE FIGHTS
SALOON LICENSES
In Resolution to Town Council
Emphatic Objection to More
Licenses Is Made.

The Bloomfield Board of Trade last
night adopted the following resolution
to be presented at the meeting of the
Town Council next Tuesday night:
Your municipal affairs committee,
being unanimous in the opinion that
the permanent welfare of our town de-
mands that there be no increase in
the number of license, begs to present
the following:
Resolved. That the Board of Trade
hereby protests to the members of the
Town Council against granting the ap-
plications of Charles Fredericks, James
A. Campbell. Wallace Lyon, all of the
Second Ward, for licenses to sell in
toxicating liquor on the grounds.
First-That to establish these places
in business would break the wise and
settled policy that there shall be no
increase in the number of saloons in
Bloomfield, so strongly held to by for
mer councils for years back.
~Second-That at the best saloons do
not improve a community, and these
places being far removed from parts of
town patroled by police or easily
reached from police headquarters, are
therefore more apt to become disor-
derly and consequently a menace to the
peace and order of our community.
T~hird-There is not a general demand
that these new saloons be opened, but
they are only derived by the appli-
cants themselves and a limited number
of their friends and connections and
the granting of their desires would be
special favors against established
policy and the loud and persistent pro-
tests of Bloom1eld's arrest citizen
ship.
The Board of Trade considers it an
outrage that current rumor as to pos
sibilities of the licenses mentioned be
ing granted makes this action neces-
sary.
DR.. William r. Broughton urged that
the members of the board do all in
their power to influence the members
of the Council to vote against the new
applications. He said that some of the
councilmen talked of voting for at least
one application, for personal reasons
only.
Immediate action on the question of
Lackawanna improvements was urged
with a CLAUSE to be inserted in the con-
tract that Watsessing also be cared for
when work in East Orange is taken up.
The chairmen of the committees in
charge Of the Fourth of July celebra-
ton are as follows: Sports and games,
Hugh ID. King; fireworks, William Big
CART; speakers, Samuel G. Hayter.
There will be athletic games in the
afternoon, and fireworks in the evening,
and or the Sunday following there will
be services in the Westminster Pres
byterian Church.
There nave been LOG new members
added to the rolls since March -, and
the total membership is now 279. A
committee to revise the constitution
and bylaws, consisting of Arthur Rus
sell, WiIliam|Biggart and Clifford Wray,
was appointed.

New Source of Strength De-
yelOps for Jersey ViCe-Pres-
identiaI Candidate.
WORKING QUIETLY AMONG
ARRIVING DELEGATES
Dalrymple Conducting Active
and Energetic Campaign for
Former Governor.
Especial to the Evening start

CHICAGO, June 12.-In addition to
ests throughout the country, former
Governor Franklin Murphy, of New
Jersey, in his campaign here for the
vice-presidency, has obtained another
source of strength, which has been
brought to the attention of the Repub-
lican leaders. The bishops of the A. M.
e. Church and of the Baptist Church,
who held conventions here last night,
passed resolutions indorsing Mr.. Muir
ply as h candidate they favored for
the vice-presidency.
This follows similar action that was
last week by conventions of the A. M.
e. Church.
The attitude of certain labor interests
towards Secretary Taft and the feeling
of the negroes toward the administra-
ton have been sources of worry to the
leaders, it Is admitted here.
Mr.. Murphy's friendly relations with
labor and the strong Endorsement given
by the negro churches have attracted
close attention to him.
John T. Cheshire and Harold w.
rett, of Orange, and the Rev. Solomon
l.. Hood and the Rev. John c. johnson
two other w~ell-known New Jersey cler-
gymen, have opened headquarters for
Murphy at 2935 State street here
and are working among the negro del
egates to the convention.
Main headquarters for the Murphy
campaign have been opened in the Au-
ditorium Annex. They are in charge of
Alfred N. Dalrymple. the Essex County
Republican chairman. With him are
Thomas N. McCarter n John r.
Flavell.
