TROUBLE AT HORSE SALE
ENDED IN AN ARREST,

On charge of hitting Peter
Rosenvinge, proprietor of a restau-
rant at 219 Smith street, over the
head with a club, yesterday after
noon, Samuel Polkowitz, one of the
firm OF Polkowitz Brothers, proprie-
trs of a livery and exchange stable
at SO New Brunswick avenue, was
held in 5000 bail by Recorder Pick
ersgill, this morning, to await the ac-
tion of the grand jury.
Polkowitz admitted hitting Rosen-
vinge, but denied that he had used
club. He said that the restaurant
man had created disturbance on
the stand where horse sale was be-
ing conducted and that he had been
compelled to strike him. He declar-
ed that Rosenvinge had tried to hit
him first.
When asked by the recorder what
he wanted done with the case, Rosen-
vinge said he would like 1t sent to
the grand jury. He gave the names
of School Commissioner George
Moore, S. P. c. A. Agent Daniel c.
Hutchinson and Joseph Brown, son
of Constable John C. Brown, as wit
nesses.
Mr.. Rosenvinge retained Lawyer
Peter A. Peterson this morning, to
bring suit against Samuel, Joseph
and Henry Polkowitz. for $500. Mr..
Peterson says that the suit is brought
against the three brothers as indi-
viduals, as Mr.. Rosenvinge claims
they we're all concerned in the as
sault. The case is returnable in the
district court next Thursday.

SMALL BLOCKS
ON STATE ST.
Specifications Called for
Only Two Inch Block as
Traffic is Light.
FINISH WITHIN WEEK

The Hastings Paving Company
will begin laying the asphalt blocks
on State street, between Smith and
Market streets, Monday. The gut
ters and some recent excavations
have been concreted and as only one
inch of sand and cement mortar Is
to be placed under the blocks, the
contractors expect to complete the
street in about one more week.
The blocks that are to be used
are only two inches In thickness,
while those used on Smith street and
State street from Smith street north,
were three inches thick Many have
noticed the difference in the blocks,
and as result there has been con-
siderable comment.
The aldermen say that two inch
blocks are placed on streets where
the traffic is not heavy, and are what
are known as residential blocks. In
advertising for bids for the work the
aldermen decided that as State street
from Smith to Market was only used
for light traffic called for two inch
blocks in the specifications as.-they
are cheaper than the three inch and
will last nearly as long. The bids
for the work, on account of the
smaller blocks, and as no other con-
crete foundation was necessary, were
low. The present macadam on the
street is In good condition and made
the concrete unnecessary.

PATIENT GOES
INSANE; GIVES
NURSES FIGHT
Had Struggle to Prevent
Powerful Man From Throw
ing Himself on Stove.
DR.. RAMSAY CALLED

Two of the nurses in the city hospi-
tai Thursday night had an exciting
battle with Constantine Dirkowski, of
Carteret, shortly after 10 o'clock,
when he suddenly became afflicted
himself on the laundry stove. Al
though the patient, who was brought
tc the institution several days ago, is
a big powerful man the nurses fearless
ly grappled with him and managed to
tie him, while word was telephoned to
DR.. w. E. Ramsay
The physician hurried to the hospi-
tai in his automobile in response to the
call for aid and found the patien. in
a furious state. Although the doctor
is a powerful man himself be found
that Dirkowski was almos. Hercules
and for few minutes had the NEST
exciting wrestling match since his boy
hood days. The patient was in such a
condition that the doctor had to put
him under the influence of chloroform
before he could be managed.
DIR. Ramsay commended the two
nurses highly for their work and says
that how they managed to tie the pa
tient is a mystery to him. The nurses
were alone at the time and only for
their prompt action Dirkowski, who
would have perhaps fatally injured
himself.
AT the hospital this morning it was
stated that the patient was still IRA
tional and under guard.

That Citro, himself, feared an at
tack, was evident from his fright
ened appearance. While Patrolman
Andrew Jensen and Patrolman Chris
Hanson stood on guard outside the
lookup door, Detectives Huff and
Long escorted the prisoner to the
recorders desk Chief Burke, as
there were evil glances from some of
the Italians In the audience, told
everybody to sit down, and he al
lowed no one to come near the
front of the room.
While Citro stood In the center
of the group of officers, the recorder
said:
"You are accused of making an as
Bault on Rosie Stillo. Do you plead
guilty or not guilty
The prisoner, in a faint voice,
asked for an interpreter, stating
that he could not understand Eng
lish very we'll.
"You can understand all right,
said the recorder did you do it?"
Citro said, NO." whereupon the
Judge told the officers to take him
back to his cell
& Usually prisoners are taken to the
county jail shortly after court hour,
but Chief Burke said that he did not
want a scene, and would take Citro
to New Brunswick some time during
the day, at time not announced.
After court was all over, small
groups of Italians congregated in
the park, hoping that Citro would
be brought out.
The prisoner is held without bail,
on account of the seriousness of the
charge. AS was told in the NEWS,
Citro was traced to Wilkes-Barre,
Pa, last week, by Detective Long, of
this city, who caused his arrest
there Monday night. Requisition
papers were secured and Detectives
Huff and Long went there after
Citro, Thursday. They arrived here
shortly after four O'Clock yesterday
afternoon, over the Lehigh Valley
railroad, with their prisoner, and
took him from the State street de-
pot to the police station on trolley
car, without any trouble.
Citro Is of small build and has a
light mustache. He used to have a
bootblack stand in front of Emil
Bohnsack's cafe, in Smith street, and
was conspicuous by his dudish ap-
pearance.
Citro was taken to the county Jail
ater in the morning by Detective Huff
md Long and County Detective R. A.
Peltier without any trouble as none
)f the Italians were around the police
tation at the time. The trip was made
ly trolley.

LOCAL MAN HAS GOOD
INVENTION OF WINDOW

A. F. Wahlberg. of this city, is the
inventor of an improved sash win
dow that promises to become an ar
ticle of universal use as soon as it
can be properly advertised. When
ever shown to contractors and hard
ware men 1t has met with instant ap-
proval. One of the features of the
new window is that the sash rope is
entirely invisible. 1t is a convent
ent contrivance that makes window
cleaning comparatively easy.
A hardware dealer of Tacoma,
Washington, thought the window
one of the best articles OF It's kind
he ever saw, and Immediately offered
a large sum for It, 1t is likely that
the inventor will sell the patent
rights.

which may have only one candidate
running may be declared off, and the
one candidate merged with the dis
triet closest to it.
The management makes this change
with reluctance, as it hoped that the

educational and vacation, of the Ber-
muda tour, and be willing to work for
it. But such has proved not to be the

smash on the new motor speedway
here, and Lewis Strang won the fast
est hundred mile race ever held In the
world. He drove Buick ear and shat
tered record after record on his way
up to the century mark.
Ten Mile Record Goes Too.
In addition to Strangs feat the day

mile race by Zengel in a Chadwick and
by a nip and tuck finish in the FIVE
mile free for all. Aitken and Merz
crossing the tape SO close togethef
that the judges couldn't tell which
had won. Both men were driving Ma
tional cars.
The feature Of the day was the easy
victory Of Strang with a Buick In the
100 mile race. Strang led all the way
from the start and won by about ten
miles in the exceptional time of I
hour 30 minutes 4S $40 seconds. This
was a new record for this country.
Strang beat Chevrolet's records for
nearly all the distances between %

the 100 mile track record, made by
Burman on a mile track at Columr
bus, o.. on July 8.
Strang's Run Continuous.

lead all the way.
Before Strang started on his won-
derful race the honors had gone to
Zengel, who established new ten
mile record in his Chadwick. This is
the second time in the meet that this
record has been broken. Chevrolet

passed and holding it to the end.
Schwitzer was leading at the end of
the first ten miles. but dropped back
to third when both Dewitt in a Buick,
and Wright passed him. Dewitt drop
ped out when his sparkling apparatus
refused to work, and Schwitzer moved
into second place. Ryall in Buick,
was Tapped early in the struggle and
dropped out after a futile effort to
make up the lost ground. Merritt, in
