We. TRANSFER

The oBard of Excise Commissions
ers held q short meeting last night
In city hall at which they granted
three transfers, laid two over, re-
fused a saloon license, laid two new
applications over under the rules,
adjudged one application not prop
erly before the board and granted
ten renewals. The application Of
Mr.. Weiss, of Hall avenue for a re-
newal, was laid over.
Adam Zmijewski was granted trans
fer of his saloon license from Ill Hall
avenue to 205 Hall avenue, into the
building formerly owned by Excise
Commissioner John Seaman, by vote
Of three to two, the two republican
commissioners voting in the negative.
The remonstrance was before the
board, asking the board not to grant a
license at 205 Hall avenue. It was
signed by Carl Henkel and twenty-nine
others. The document demonstrated
against the granting Of a license at No.
2Q5, in the place formerly owned by
John Seaman and now supposed by the
board to be owned by Adam Zmijewski.
President Mulchahey objected to the
phrase, now supposed to be owned by
John Seaman, used In the remon-
strance He further stated that the
document was for new license and, in
asmuch as the application was for a
transfer of an old license, the paper
wouldhave little bearing upon It. This
place has been before the board. before.

VOTE LIGHT
IN THIS CITY

There is considerable comment
about the exceedingly light vote that
was cast In this city on Tuesday and
comparison with the number of
registrations shows that 1884 voters
in Perth Amboy did not cast bal
lot.
The total number of registrations
according TO the registry lists was
b,036, and as near as can be ascer-
tanned the total vote here was 3,701.
The total vote last year was 1882.
This was 281 more than last Tues
day.
1t is believed that most of the
democratic vote in this city came
out, as the party was well organized.
This is borne out by the fact that
Bernard M. Cannon received 2,518l
votes In this city to Jackson's 1,1S3,
majority of 1895.
