KEARNY BOARD
Of ASSESSORS
IN THE DARK
Didn't Know That State Equal
izers Had Come to Any
Conclusions.

Not until they had seen the ac-
counts in last nights evening papers
did the Kearny assessors know that
the State Board of Equalization OF
Taxes had rendered any decisions in
the matters Of reducing assessments
which had been presented to them
when they sat in Kearny yesterday
morning and afternoon.
Secretary Adolph Amann, of the
Kearny Board of Assessors, met a
STAR reporter last night and asked
where he had gotten the decisions that
were published in the Evening STAR.
When told that the Secretary of the
state Board had given them out
Amann appeared dumbfounded.
When he came to himself he said:
''They certainly gave us a funny deal.
We were never told by them that they
had come to any conclusion in any of
the cases, and were under the opinion
that they would o give out anything
for a couple OF days. and that we
would be the first to hear from them.
instead of that people who are almost
totally disinterested were given the
news first.''
Amann said also that the State board
had taken under consideration a reduc-
ton asked by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company for a reduction and
had granted it, despite the fact that
Kearny assessors had been granted a
five minute recess in which to go over
the matter. When they returned they
were surprised to know that the State
Board ignored them.

~rrietor Of the saloon in Freeman street,

missioner Adam II. Groel talked plain-
ly for a few minutes to Joseph DrexeI
Holmes, chairman of the citizens com-
mittee Of fifty, which is the official
ebogie' man for Orange s~aIconkeepers.
at a meeting Of the Board of Excise OF
that place last night.
In addition to presenting a formal PEI
tition claiming that when the Lacka11
wanna railroad makes trackaae
changes in the valley the road VIII pass
around the Himsi place and leave the
structure isolated in Scotland street,
a contingency that seems far removed
at the present time, Mr.. Holmes oTered1
an argument.against the grant Of a res
newal to the applicant. Is
Mr.. Holmes had grown sarcastic, and
after stating that the saloon was so {
quietly conducted it resembled an I'M
dertaker's shop rather than a drinking
place, and that citizens who protested
against the place previously did not
attend the boara meeting becanse thexs
were discouraged shy the attitude DC
the commissioners. Mr.. Groel asked
Mr.. Holmes to listen to him.
Do you know any place in New Jer-
sey of the size of Orange that has
closed as many saloons as we have sim
ply to reduce b nunnber?s
Mr.. Holmes admitted he hadn't kent
any track of places outside Of his own
city. but hoped the board would not
retrench in its attitude Of reducing the
number of saloons.
Don't you think this board has been
more than fair to your committee in re-
duoing the saloons continued Mr..
Groel. I'VE have cut down the umbe
of places thirteen in W years, and
when your objection is simply on gen.
eral principles YOU must remember this
board win look at the question from
the viewpoint of justice to the saloons
keeper as well as the committee"
Mr.. Holmes remarked they were re-
ducing saloons In rapid fashion IN
West Orange, and he said he hoped the
good work would be kept up in Or
ange. Without any comment the board
unanimously decided to grant Himsl
a renewal. Franklin w. Fort ap<
peared as counsel for Himsl and ex@
planned the improvements that had
been made to the place and that the
l~icensee had considerable money inr
vested which would prove a dea loss
if his license were taken away.

SENT IN ALARM
OF FIRE INSTEAD
Of PRACTISE CALL
Employee of LinoIeum Company
Made Mistake and All Kearny
Was Excited.
CROWD RAN TO SCENE IN
WAKE OF APPARATUS
Suppers Left to Get Cold as Pops
ulace Rushed to the
Works.

Excitement reigned supreme in
Kearny for a short time last night,
and 1t was all caused by the stupidity
of an employee of the Nairn Linoleum
Company, in Passaic avenue. The
Kearny police and fire departments,
the American District Telegraph Com
pany of Newark and the entire popu-
lace of Kearny figured in the rumpus.
1t all came about this way: An en-
ployee of the linoleum plant was sent
to the fire alarm station with orders
to pull. the whistle for fire practise
shortly before 6 o'clock. He opened
one of the boxes and jerked down the
lever, but no whistle blew, and the
mai at the box became frightened.
fearing he had picked out the wrong
box and pulled 1t.
Calling the superintendent he told
him the whistle refused to blow, and
pointed to the box he had pulled.
You have pulled the wrong box"
cried the boss; and there was nc mis-
take about it either, for in another
moment the Kearny fre-bells started to
jingle.
lie pOllCe ihdu otcll Hotiilco Ny bnS
American Telegraph Company that
there was a fire at the Marin plant, and
Chief Of Police William Tolen . at
tempted to send in the alarm Of the
company which is 1853. The f1rebell
rang. and all kinds of numbers struck
off, the wires seeming to be In on the
joke.
Street Commissioner John Durkin ran
to the new firehouse in Kearny avenue
and sounded the Marin number, then
the whistle of the factory started to
blow for fire practise. Suppers were
left to grow cold and houses to take
care of themselves while the entire
populace rushed to the works, expect
ing to see a fire such as have occurred
there in the past. when the damage ran
up into the tens of thousands.
To lend more of an air Of excitement
to the affair, the Kearny fire apparatus
came tearing through the streets, and
when everybody had reached the Marin
plant they were just in time to see the
employees quitting practise and hous-
ing it's apparatus. The excited throng
quickly subsidized and back taps" were
sounded.

Dissatisfaction Among Residents
Is General.

Dissatisfaction is prevalent in Irving
ton al the bad condition of many of
the town thoroughfares. The different
Improvement associations of the town
are taking the matter up. and at the
recent meeting Of the local Board of
Trade special comment was made upon
1t. Councilman David H. Greene ex-
pressed his conviction that good side
walks, c~rosswalks and thoroughfares
should be the paramount local issue.
Mahlon S. Drake and Charles Hecht
called attention to several glazing de-
fects in Union avenue and along Elm
wood avenue. declaring that on the lat
ter avenue field stone was being hauled.
which would cost the town nearly as
much as new stone. Complaint was
also made regarding the state OF the
cobblestones In Springfield avenue,
which. it was said. was a danger to
vehicles. DR.. Albion G. Christian re-
marked that the conditions reminded

expedition to the North Pole was
published in a special edition of the

ment was made by other papers on
the comander's trip. The Temps

Peary's recital appeared really fav-

story is obscure. and even inconsis-

NEW YORK, Sept, 1O.-Wall
streets response today to Harri-
mans death was a bouyantly strong
stock market, in which securities
made sensational gains and held
them to the end. The volume OF
business was enormous and over l.
100000 shares of the better known
Hartman stocks, Union Pacific COM
mon and Southern Pacific common
alone contributed over one-third,
while other properties in which Har-
riman was interested added as much
more to the total. The day result
ed in complete route of the short
interests.
Wall street gave considerable at
tention to a rumor that J. P. Nor
gan & Co. was buying heavily of
Union Pacific and that arrangements
for taking a representative of the
Morgan firm into the Union Pacific
executive committee had already
