Gang Of Tramps Gathered In

After working Morrisville people with
several of the old games and few new
ones, a gang of tramps was rounded up
last Thursday night by officers browne
and iIamel. There were five in the com
panD and all were in advanced stages of
intoxication. Three were captured on
the railroad track, near the old camp
ground and the other two in Meacham's
restaurant. The last two put up stiff
fight and the officers were obliged to call
for assistance before the hobos were sub
dued. The quintet was lodged in the
village lookup, where a trial was held
Friday morning, before Justice A. A.
Niles, States Attorney M. P. Maurice
prosecuting. They were given 20 days
each at the county Jail (at hard labor p
and were taken there at once. 1t is said
that the gang worked Hardwick system
atiCally before coming here. They had
headquarters in cellar of partially
finished house on Wabun avenue. They
gave their names and addresses as fol.
lows Alfred Jones Concord, N. H..
George Gordon, Boston; Edward Collier
Pennicook, N. f.; Joseph Carney, Man,
chester. N. H.. Frank Shirley, Worcester,
Mass. Among the games worked here
was the deaf and dumb man and cripple
and there are also stories of att tempted
hold-ups, although evidence to substan-
tiate the latter charges seems to be rather
vague.
Sheriff Stevens received an order
from Gov. Prouty to ship the whole
bunch to Rutland, where they will be
given chance to work out their sentence.
They were taken there Tuesday by the
Sheriff and Deputy Sheriff Jones.

Will Sell Town Farm

At the special town meeting held at
town hall last Saturday afternoon it was
voted to sell the Morristown Poor Farm
property and C. II. A. Stafford was an
pointed agent to convey the property.
In reply to A. G. Noyes, who asked if
the town had customer for the farm,
Overseer Boynton mentioned a prospec-
tive buyer from New York state, who
had been here to see the property and
was expected to return. Mr.. Boynton
moved that the property be sold and the
motion was carried without dissenting
vote.
The reason for selling the farm is thai
it has proved too expensive a proposition
While some advocate the purchase of {
larger farm, it is probable that this will
not be done at present, at least. Mean
while the town officials can be depended
upon to take proper care of the town
poor.

EXPECT CHANGE IN
STRIKE SITUATION
More Employees Dismissed from
Orange FactOries-Unskilled
Workmen Allowed to Go.

Conditions which seem to indicate
some important change In the hating
situation in the Oranges are develop
ing. The hat factories in the Valley
district today discharged many of the
incompetents who have been employed,
and 1t is generally rumored hat none
but the most expert of the workmen
are being retained. 1t is generally con-
coded that the employment of men and
women who have not the skill required
has not proved profitable to the manu-
facturers.
In addition to the batch of workmen
seeking registration under union rules
there were many other changes of
workmen today. No move has been
mad as yet for the meeting of the
special grand jury committee with the
manufacturers.
Forty men who were employed as
strike-breakers In the Orange hat fac
tories and who represent a great por-
ton of the skilled mechanics employed
there. on Saturday applied for mem
bership in the Orange union. SIM
ultaneously with this came the an
iAodANtiiitit nat MY G-DlCd o.
not the men who had applied for mem
bership in the Orange union, had been
discharged from the hating factories.
One mar who is close to the situa-
ton, but who asked that his name be
withheld said:
1T Is strange that the factories
should lay off men at this time. 1t
is the busy season and it looks as If it
will be one of the biggest seasons in
the hating industry. There are be-
tween 400 and 500 men now employed
in the factories. That is about one
third the force. But as a great many
of the strike breakers are green work
men the number of men employed does
not nearly represent the work that
would be produced by skilled men. 1t
looks as If there is something doing in
the hating situation"

STABBED HUSBAND
MAY RECOVER
Kearny Mans Wife and Neigh.
Dor Held Pending Result
of His Injuries.

Peter Faulkner. Of 2 Clark avenue.
kearny, who was badly wounded by a
dagger Saturday night, was reported
TO be improving today at St. Michaers
Hospital. He will probably recover.
Mrs. Faulkner, wife of the wounded
man, and Charles Henry. q neighbor,
who were held without bail for the
Hudson County Grand Jury by Re-
corder Kelly TO await the result Of
Faulkner's injuries. were taken to the
county jail today.
Recorder Kelly and Detective Oliver.
of Kearny, came to Newark yesterday
to obtain a statement from the In
jured man. but were not allowed to see
him, as al the time he was believed 20
be in a critical condition.
Faulkner was stabbed Saturday night
after he had objected 10 Henry's att
tentions TO Mrs. Faulkner. The TIVE
men had an argument and Henry II
alleged to ave drawn a pen knife and
stabbed Faulkner, although he dentss
having done so. The weapon has MT
been found.
A pathetic feature OF the incident n
that four children are deprived OF tne
care of both parents. They are being
looked after by Overseer of tbs Poor
Isaac Oliver. When Mrs. Faulkner was
arrested the children begged 30 earns
estly TO be allowed to 20 with her thai
they were allowed to occupy her ceTl
for a short time. When she was ar
raigned before Recorder Kelly the
children begged the court TO allow her
to return home.
Henry n Mrs. Faulkner deny al
knowledge Of the etabbing. although
they admit that Faulkner and Henrx
quarreled over the oman /
