SUES WEST HOBOKEN
FOR REINSTATEMENT.
Says Town Had No Right to
Abolish Job.
Especial to the Newark Star. ]

TRENTON, July 2S.-Claiming that
the town of West Hoboken had no legal
right to pass an ordinance abolishing
the position of chief of police, John Nc
Auley, who held the office in question
until July 20, 1910. has brought certi-
orari proceedings in the Supreme Court
to have the ordinance set aside. Nc
Auley was made chief of police in 1898
and has held the office ever since. On
July 20 last the ordinance was passed
aboiishing the office. McAuley charges
in his papers that the passage of the
ordinance was mere subterfuge to get
rid of him and that he was removed
solely for political reasons
He AYERS that no hearing was allowed
him and he claims that the town had
no power to abolish the Office because
it was created by act of the Legisla-
ture. He charges that he could not be
removed from Office except on charges
after proper hearing,

STOCK MARKET PRICES
SEEK HIGHER LEVEL.
Trading Stimulated by Trans
mental r. r. Combine Reports.

NEW YORK. July 2s.-There was an
other violent raise in prices of stocks
today, in further rebound from the ex-
cessive depression of last Tuesday.
The recovery was stimulated by the
circumstantial reports of the taking
over by an international banking sym
dicate of the holdings of an embar-
rassed interest which had overextended
itself in an attempt to control new
transcontinental railroad combination.
The renewal of large amounts of Sc
curities overhanging the market found
a large short interest uncovered and
counting on a continuance of forced
liquidation. Their urgent demand was
supplemented by investment demand
from foreign and domestic sources.
The active list of stocks had risen
from to points over yesterday s
closing prices during the first hour

Patrolman Blewitt, of the Third Pre-

sweaters at Hamilton and McWhorter
streets shortly after midnight. The
policeman took his prisoner to the
police box at Hamilton and Union

the call the street merchant made his
successful dash for liberty. Every ef-
fort to find the fugitive proved un-

TWO ARE KILLED,
MANY INJURED IN
STRIKERS RIOT.
Pitched Battle Between Police
and Mob at American
Sugar Refinery.

NEW YORK, July 28-Two men were
shot and killed and four others were
wounded and a score or more injured
in a riot of strike sympathizers today
at the plant of the American Sugar
Refining Company in Williamsburg,
where a strike has been in progress for
a month.
Crowds of sympathizers threw bricks
at the strike breakers from housetops.
and when the non-union men started
out with their trucks to deliver sugar
q rush was made for the wagons. The
police on the trucks returned the fire
of the crowd and two of the rioters
were shot. 1t is reported that others
were hurt in the melee and hurried
away by friends.
The employees of the plant struck a
month ago for an advance in wages.
The dead men were Lithuanians, and
were not readily identified Several
policemen were struck and painfully
hurt by the bricks thrown from the
nearby roofs. Four men suffering from
serious gunshot wounds were taken to
the Eastern District Hospital.
1t appeared from the accounts of by
ISLANDERS that the officers did not fire
into the crowd until forced to do so
by the ferocity of the attacks upon
them, firing first into the air to intimi-
date the mob, and when this warning
failed directed their shots at the men
attacking them.
On the charge of having fired one of
the shots that took effect upon the mob,
H. A. Morgan, cashier of the refinery,
who succeeded James F. Bendernagel
in that position after the latter was
tried for alleged under-weighing frauds
in connection with the big conspiracy.
was arrested after the riot and lodged
in Jail. Morgan denied the accusation.
Regulars among the police declared
that the blue-coats did not use their
revolvers to fire upon the men in the
crowd and asserted that the greater
part of the firing was done by special
policemen. In the confusion it was diff
ficult to get accurate versions of what
actually happened.

AUTO LAWS AND POLITICS
ARE TOPICS DISCUSSED.
Sen. Frelinghuysen Takes Part
in Secret Conference.

TRENTON, July Ex-senator Joseph
S. Frelinghuysen, father of the auto
mobile law, and State Motor Vehicle
Commissioner Smith attended a con-
ference of automobilists at the local
county club Tuesday. Considerable se-
crecy has been thrown around the
meeting, and 1t just leaked out today
that 1t had been held. Those present
from this city, including Commissioner
Smith. refuse to discuss the conference.
1t is said it was called to consider
retaliatory measures against Pennsyl-
vania and New York for their stringent
nonresident auto laws, but it is under
stood, also, that one of its purposes
was to discuss how Senator Freling-
huysen might strengthen himself with
autoists and others, and thereby en-
hance his chances of landing the Re-
publican nomination for governor. His
authorship OF the auto law has been a
considerable handicap to his political
aspirations.
The Others at the conference were
Karl G. Roebling and Newton A. X
Bugbee, of this city, and DR.. Grace.

WESTINGHOUSE DEPOSED;
ATKINS NOW PRESIDENT.
Inventor Lays His Troubles to
Chairman Mather.

NEW YORK, July 30.-George West
inghouse. the inventor and head of the
Westinghouse Electric and Manufac-
turing Company for nearly twenty five
years. was removed from the presi-
dency of that concern yesterday at a
meeting of the directors. Edwin r..
Atkins, of Boston, was elected to sue
ceed him, but it is understood that Mr..
Atkins will hold the office only until
such time as the directors may be able
to agree upon a man who will fill the
place permanently Mr.. Westinghouse
remains director, his time expiring
in 1912
The action of the board was in no
way unexpected. 1t has been known
for some time that there has been con-
siderable friction between Mr.. West
inghouse and Robert Mather who was
put In as chairman of the board after
the reorganization with powers that
overshadowed those of the president.
For the last month rumors of the more
or less forced withdrawal of Mr.. West
inghouse have been particularly active.
Mr.. Westinghouse contented himself
with issuing a statement early this
week, in which he made it pretty clear
that the secondary position in which
he had found himself was not at all to
his liking.
George Westinghouse has always
been the promoter of his own inven-
tions in the fields of steam and cleo
tricity, and at one time he was presi-
dent OF thirty corporations having a
capital of S12o,0000O0. Possibly the most
widely known of his inventions was
the airbrake that bears his name. He
was 20 years old when he conceived the
idea for this, and even earlier he PER
fected a rotary steam engine of his
own. That was the beginning of his
career as an inventor and he was
working then in his fathers shop in
