COULDN'T FIND
DOCTOR FOR MAN
FATALLY HURT
Said That Harrison LabOrer
with Skull Fractured Lay All
Night Without Aid.
DIES AFTER TWELVE-FOOT
FALL FROM A BALCONY
Doherty Was Leaving Home for
Social Calls When Acci-
dent Happened.

Fracturing his skull in a twelve-foot
fall from a balcony, Patrick Doherty,
90 years old, a laborer, of 6S Cleveland
avenue, Harrison, died yesterday at
his home. Arrangements for his burial
are yet to be made. as no money is
available in his home.
The unfortunate man, who resided
with his two sons, Peter and Hugh
Doherty, both young, was about to
leave his home on Satn~'ev night to
visit in the neighborhood, and was
passing along a balcony at the side of
his louise when he stumbled and fell
over the railing to the ground below,
a distance of about twelve feet. The
fail rendered him UNCONSCIOUS, and in
that condition he was found by two
neighbors, who carried him to his
apartments and tried to secure a ply
stefan, but none was available, so that
the injured man lay all night without
medical attendance, it is alleged.
Yesterday morning DR.. A. A. Multi
gan and the Rev. Father Michael Glen
non, of the Church of the Holy Cross,
were told of the case and hurried to
Doherty's home, but he was dead when
they arrived.
The dead man was a widower, and
besides the two sons mentioned, has
another son, John, who is said to be
in the navy.

a drug store, when met by Charles
Van Gieson and John Mcdonald, who
knew the boy and took him to John

consisting of a severe cut on the nose

WOULD HAVE
RAILROAD BEAR
ENTIRE EXPENSE
New England Society, of Orange,
Wants Grade Crossing
Elimination Free.

Resolutions urging that the railroad
should pear all the expense of grade
crossing elimination in the Oranges
were adopted by the New England So
ciety of Orange at Its Saturday meet
ing. Chairman Edward K. Sumer-
well introduced the resolution as fol-
lows:
Whereas, it is the duty of railroad
companies, at their own expense, to
construct and operate their roads with
safety to the communities which they
serve; and
Whereas, under existing circum-
stances in the Oranges such safe oper-
alton is impossible while grade cross
lngs remain,
Resolved, That the railroad COM
panies serving the Oranges should be
required to eliminate all grade cross
ings therein at their own expense at
the earliest practicable date, and that
such work should be so done as to be
in keeping with the character of the
localities served; and
Resolved, That if, in connection with
this work, 1t is found expedient to I'M
dertake municipal betterments other
than those rendered necessary byDrhe
work itself, the expense of such bet
terments should be borne by the mu-
inequalities requiring same;
Whereas, In a suburban community
the distance from a station becomes a
vital factor in the life of the commuter,
and the station fixes to a large extent
a certain business centre, and real es-
tate values become adjusted thereto;
and
Whereas. all the existing stations in
the Oranges have been long estab-
lished, and are needed for the proper
accommodation of the public,
Resolved, That no consolidation,
abandonment or important change of
stations would be fair or justified by
present conditions in the Oranges"
A shade tree commission for Orange
was advocated. A deficit of $177.6S was
reported by the committee in charge
of the F~orefathers' Day dinner and the
lecture committee asked for $50 more
to finish the work it had set out to do
for the year.
Charles A. Ransom, Charles A. Field
ing and the Rev. Israel L. White were
unanimously elected members and the
resignation of Charles A. Boston, who
has moved to New York, was accepted
with regret.
