1924 and the city council, over the
Funk ordinance prescribing So per
day for men employed at common
labor for the city. The Central La
Dor Council will have it's legislative
committee at the city hall tonight,
also, to help the federal unionists in
securing the passage of the ordi-
nance. 1t is learned today from re-
liable information that at the pres
ent time a majority of the city coult
cline mare in favor of the passage
of the ordinance.
The matter of securing a night
car service, as is being advocated by
the Press. is being enthusiastically
discussed in many of the labOring
circles. Take it up for popular
vote in your own unions, and learn
the general sentiment of your own
fellow unionists. The Press believes
there are hundreds of the laboring
people of the city who should be
benefited by 4 night car service.
The matter is soon to come to a
vote in the Central Labor Council.

OF the affair at Foneroy and Lew

the opposition he received in the

Kirby is now practicing in Spo-

FitzmauIice says that the refusal
to grant his final naturalization

tered and win probably be tried in the

e. Conner, administrative of Fergus
Conner, the young man who was killed
by an east-bound Central Railroad
train at the Ferry street station or Au-
gust 70 last. The administrators APP
pears for the father and mother, who

Young Conner was born In Ireland
and came to this country in 1906, and
Immediately went to work for NJ. p.
Smyth & Co, in Passaic avenue. On
the day he was killed Conner was sent
on business to New York by his firm,
and 1t was while crossing the tracks to
the station. after alighting from the
Jersey City train, that he was struck by
another going in the opposite direction.
On November s last his sister Mary,
through Mulligan & Koenig, who are
the attorneys in the present suit,
took out letters of administration by
consent of the youths parents. 1t Is

receiving. Besides the father and
mother and his sister Mary. Conner had
one sister and five brothers in Ireland,
