Excise Board Not Called Upon
to Act on Two Applications
for Licenses; Both Withdrawn
The Other Requests for New
Saloons Are, Under the
Rules, Laid Over for
One Month.
ONE BOTTLIAC LICENSE

The monthly meeting Of the Board Of
Excise Commissioners in city hall last
night, was a comparatively short one.
The only new license granted was that
Of Israel Bality for ,bottling license
at 715 State street. Bality is also q
holder Of saloon license at the same
address. The application was granted
by vote Of to l.
The applications Of James j. Garland
for a saloon at 927 State street, in the
place formerly kept by William Howley
and Of Andrew Matt for saloon at l
Jacques street, were withdrawn.
The new applications of Anton Gadek
for a saloon at 80 Hall avenue, and
Jnmes O'Toole for one at 243 Front
street, were, under the rules, laid over
for a month.
Lawyer James 8. Wight was among
the small audience present and he made
an effort to bring up the matter of
Joseph Kozlowski, who WAS refused a
transfer Of the license Of Mike Metrus-
ka, at 1868 Smith street, last December.
This was the case started before the
board month ago, when Lawyer Wight
made application to have the matter
reconsidered. Kozlowski seemingly pur-
chased the place of Metruska and con
Quoted it himself, before an official
transfer. Of the license had been made.
His counsel 3 plea is that Kozlowski
knew little about excise matters and
thought it was perfectly right to buy
the place, run it and receive a license
afterwards. The boards rules forbid
1t to transfer a license, where the trans
fer Of the place has been made first
Lawyer Wight was not given permits
sion to speak. President Mulchahey
told the members of the board that the
application could be reconsidered, IL any
of them wished to make a motion to
that effect. None being made, the mat
ter was dropped and the board adjourn
ed at 1886 O'Clock.
Thirteen renewal applications were
unanimously granted.

MUCH EXCITEMENT AT A BLAZE
IN REAR OF STATE STREET STORE
GOVERNOR FORT MAY APPEAL TO
PEOOFPLL lie { ON PUBLIC UTILITY BILL
Believes the Guardians Tried to Trick Him When Measure
Was in the HOuse--Make Effort to
Force Gill Through Senate.

Trenton, April 2;-Apropos of the
recent fruitless struggle on the part
of the leaders and guardians to kill
the Martin public utilities commits
sion bill in the house and of Senate
President Robbins frank declara-
tion that the measure would have
no chance at all in the upper branch
came story that some one had
played a trick on Governor Fort
which has aroused the executives
ire 1t is understood the governor
was plainly told that after last
weeks futile fight by the corpora
tions against the act in the assembly
nothing further would be attempted
by the same sources until the pro-
posed statute reached the senate. 1t
was bcause this contract wasn't
kept last Tuesday that the governor
feels he has been deceived, though
he is not talking about 1t.
1t is understood the governor was
much disgusted over the way the
bill had been fought in the house
last week and that he plainly ex-
pressed himself as believing the
regular majority members In the
assembly had badly hurt their party
by their attitude In the various
struggles, whereas the democrats in
the lower branch had advanced their
party's interest by the clean and
wholesome way they so consistently
stood for the Martin bill. 1t is said
the executive got in touch with the
ones behind the fight Monday night,
and at that time was assured no fur
ther attacks on the bill would be
made and that the whole situation
would be left to the senate.
The story has 1t that President

called out the fremen of 2O1 engine
and 101 Hook and Ladder companies.
There was no damage and the
flames were soon extinguished. Ow-
ing to A. G. Brown & Sons having a
great deal of timber on the property,
and the fact that there are two sheds
remaining. one formerly used as a
restaurant and the other as dane
ing pavilion, and now used by them
as work shops, the fremen were anx-
ious to subdue the flames at once

Thomas N. McCarter, Of the Public
Service Corporation, heard of this
compact and got so worried about it
that he FASTENED to Trenton Tues
day morning and Immediately got in
consultation with Vice President
John j. Burleigh, of the same COM
pany, at the. Trenton House. Mr..
McCarter was here Tuesday, but did
not appear about the assembly. 1t
is fact, however, that Majority
Leader Lewis and his regular" as
sociates, with the help of Mr.. Young,
of Essex, got busy soon after the
house had convened Tuesday morn
ing, and spread the tip that the bill
was once more to be attacked and
that this time It would be killed.
Lewis and Young made poll of the
various regular members, stating
that there was no certainty about
the senate after all and that the pro-
posed legislation might as well be
finished in the house, anyhow.
The story Of how the fight was re-
sumed only to end in failure is old
now. 1t is understood the governor
has been making inquiries to f1nd
out who is to blame
1t is known the governor is out
strong for a public utility bill this
session, despite President Robbins
statement and that he has expressed
his intention of taking the stump
against those who oppose him
There Is no Indication, however, he
will do so before the present session
adjourns. 1t is this very thing that
Governor Hughes is doing this week
In New York, with view of forcing
