BILL
FOR BELLEv|LLE
STRANGELY LOST
Conspiracy to Kill Measure at
Last Moment Is Fooled
just in Time.

For ar hour OIL two early today it
looked as if the residents of Belleville
would not get a chance his year to
vote on the annexation question, for the
fateful bill, House 315. completely dis
appeared at Trenton. The original bill
never did come to light. but a duplicate
was introduced and passed well before
the Legislature finally adjourned.
AsseInblynan Clark, of Essex. who
introduced.the bill, asked Senator Colby
early in the evening 10 nave it brought
out as soon as possible in the Senate.
Mr.. Colby asked for the record of the
bill and found that 1t had never been
reported. John Heck, the calendar
clerk, had Senator Hands receipt show
ing that it had gone into his committee.
but the Senator was at a loss to know
what had become of it after that.
This bill has not been lost" he said.
II hear that there has been a well or
gained conspiracy on foot to kill 1t.
The Senator from Cape May says that
he has not got it now so that lets him
out, of course. It's a disgrace to the
Senate of New Jersey that a bill can be
deliberately lost in this way. l demand
that a committee be appointed to trace
it back to the House and see what has
become of it,"
Senator Hand holly resented the i'm
putation that there had been any
crooked work in connection with the
bills disappearance.
At the last moment the duplicate
scheme was thought of. the bill intro
duced and rushed through both houses.
John Hendricks, a Bellevilleite, OPP
posed to the passage of the bill. was
asked by a reporter If he knew where
the bill was.
There are several opinions as to
where it is" he answered. but really
I don't know; really. l don't know"

The stony, briefly s%ketched, concerns
the rival loves of two West Point
cadets for a Southern girl. Duncan
Irving and Bert Stafford are the cadets,

is too fond of his liquor.
Irving seeks a military career some
years before the action of Classmates
begins, and, in consequence, the first
act of the play finds him in his senior
year, while Stafford. who has just en-
tered the academy, is that despised
creature, a "plebe.' Sylvia Randolph,
with her mother, is attending a social
function at the Point when the elder
Irving appears on the scene, having de-
