EMIL JEPS0n
DECLARES He
WAS SHOT At
Tells Police That Three
Italians Attempted to Kill
Him Last Night.
SAYS ONE OF TRIO WANTS
TO GET REVENGE

Emil Jepson, of 2S6 Davidson
avenue. figured in a shooting affray
in the western section,of the city last
night and experienced close call
from being injured by revolver in
the hands of an Italian. The affray,
1t is alleged, was the elimination of
disagreement between young Jep-
son and Joseph Erning, an Italian,
who lives at 262 Davidson avenue.
Jepson appeared at police headquar-
ters this morning to have a warrant
sworn out for the arrest of his as
sailant.
The trouble, Jepson claims, origi-
mated at factory where he and Ern-
ing are employed In notifying the
police of his trouble Jepson said that
he got in an argument with Erning
at the works, with the result that
the Italian was slapped in the face.
Erning, he says, swore vengeance.
His opportunity came about $50
o'clock last night as Jepson was at
Davidson avenue and Smith street
Jepson claims that Erning, with two
other Italians, accosted him. After
a few words one of the trio, he says,
drew revolver and fired The shot
missed its mark and the assailants
fed before policeman could be
summoned. Patrolman MCGOWAN
was called and a vain search of the
neighborhood was made to find the
alleged assailants.

TROLLEY IS
DERkILED ON
THE BRIDGE
Traffic Between This City
and South kmboy Blocked
Saturday Afternoon.
DRAW NOT CLOSED TIGHT
JERSEY CENTRAL CAR

Trolley traffic between this city
and South Amboy was blocked for
some time Saturday afternoon on ac-
count of car jumping the track on
the county bridge. The car was one
of the Jersey Central Traction Com
pany's and was bound for South Am
boy filled with passengers. AT the
entrance to the draw the car sudden
ly left the rails and gave the occu-
pants slight shaking up. The acci-
dent happened about 8 O'Clock and
despite the efforts of the crew 1t was
some time before the car was placed
on the track again.
In the meantime cars of the Public
Service Corporation were held up.
Local people enroute for South Am
boy walked back to this city, while
the South Amboy passengers were
later transferred to a car on the
southerly end of the draw and taken
home. At the Office of the Public
Service Corporation in Keyport this
morning the officials said they knew
little about the accident but that the
derailing of the car was probably due
to the draw not being tightly closed
Public Service officials knew little
about the matter other than there
had been delay Of traffic Saturday
afternoon.

NEW MAP OF
PERTH AMB0Y
IS OFFICIAL

Mason & Smith have completed a
new map of the city Of Perth Amboy
and official copies for use by the vari-
GUS city departments are being finish
ed in coiors. The maps are 7x5 feet
in size and are printed in black and
white on paper, attractively mounted
on muslin that gives the maps added
wearing qualities.
City Engineer S. ]. Mason has just
completed copy of the map for as
sessment purposes. This shows the
various assessment districts through
out the city, the bulkhead and pier
head lines, riparian grants and the
various kinds of pavements. The
districts are shown in various colors,
as are the street payements, so that
the districts and the city's pavements
may be seen at a glance.
A copy for sewer purposes is being
made This will show the various
sewer lines throughout the city as
well as sewer basins, manholes and
water lines.
The map embodies the easterly
section of Woodbridge township and
gives the various property divisions
in that part of the township as we'll
as all property divisions within this
city. It shows the site of the old
reservoir in upper Smith street, but
does not show the reservoir itself, as

COWENHOVEN WAS TOO

Nv Brunswick. Nov 14;-Joseph
Holfnger and Steve Cuske pleaded
not guilty to a charge of assaulting
Stephen Rabi at Woodbridge on July
80, when arraigned before Judge

A peculiar incident occurred in
the case through the eagerness Of
Lawyer CowenhoVen, representing
the defendants, to have the case ad-
Justed that he might leave the court
room to attend to other business.
Although it has been the custom for
prisoners to wait for bail adjust

have been made, Mr. Cowenhoven
made vain attempts to have bail ad-
justed in this case Immediately after
the plea had been made. Judge
Lyon would not consent to this, af-
ter repeated attempts had been
made by the lawyer. Mr.. Cowenho-
ven then told his clients that they
could go home. Thereupon Judge
Lyon assigned constable to watch
the prisoners and as they reached

MAYOR PLANS
COMMISSION
FOR CHARITY
Hopes to Give Better Aid to
Poor and Protect Public
from Solicitors.
MAY COLLECT FOOD WHICH
Is NOW WASTED

Mayor Albert Bollschweiler has
under consideration plan to form
public charities commission in this
city. His idea in promoting such
project is to aid the worthy and
scrupulous people who are really in
need and in such q manner call
halt to the promiscuous gathering of
funds to aid individuals.
The city's chief executive hopes in
this way to systemize the work of
charity, giving better aid to the poor
and at the same time protecting tne
public which, he says, is constantly
preyed upon to give donations for
this line of work.
1t is planned to run a regular sub
scription list which will be handled
by the city government. Every
penny given to such commission
will be used solely for charity work
and none but the needy will be as
sisted and they will be aided in an
efficient and systematic way.
The mayor says that from many
homes, stores, hotels and restaurants
every day considerable good food is
thrown away He believes that with
such a commission as he has in mind
this food could be collected daily and
given to the worthy poor.

EXPRESSMEN
RETURNED TO
WORK TODAY
All the Men Wore Union
Buttons as They Took
Their Places.
GREAT CONGESTION AT
THE DEPOTS

New York, Nov. 14:-WearinG
their union buttons in full view. the
striking express drivers, helpers and
platform men were all taken back
today by the express companies un-
der the peace terms that were accept
ed last week.
SO great is the congestion Of ex-
press packages in the depots of the
strikers will have to work overtime
for ten days to get it cleaned up.
A mass meeting of Jersey City strlk,
ers at Hawkes. hall decided to accept
the terms offered by the express com
panles. These terms state that the
companies will re-employ their men
regardless of union membership, with
the exception of those who have en-
gagged in personal violence or have In
cited to riot. The New York strikers
had accepted these terms at mass
meeting Thursday night, with the pro
vision that the Jersey men also agree.
There are two serious clouds on the
labor horizon. One Is the fact that no
settlement of the chauffeurs strike
seems TO be in sight The other is the
serious threat of all the street car mel
in New York to strike
The chauffeurs are firm in their de.
termination never 20 return to work
unless the employers grant a "closed
shop" r, w. Meade of the Motor
Cab Owners association was equally
insistent that the taXicab owners
would grant no more than the express
cOmpanies-Hn open shop"
The possibility of a street car strike
had been only a vague rumor until
G. o. Pratt, head Of the street car
mems organization in this country
and the man who handled the big
street car strike in Philadelphia, ar
rived at strike headquarters in re-
spOnse to kilograms from Ashton and
other labor leaders.
Among the street car men there Is
said to exist a strong feeling of dis
satisfaction over their conditions of
labor With the present era Of strikes
their dlsaffection has taken form.
Pratt will undertake the work Of or
ganizatiOn. This, il is said, may take
only a short time, and then the labor
leaders warn New Workers to beware
of strike like the one in Phiiadel-
phia.

in this city last night. They entered
the chicken coop owned by George
A. Rifenberg, at 104 Broad street,
and later attempted to break into
one owned by John Glare. in Grace
street. Mr.. Glare says he emptied
the contents of double-barrel shot
gun at them and believes he made
good in his aim.
1t appears that Mr.. Rifenberg's
place was visited some time around
The thieves were heard
in operation in Clare's back yard
and Mr. Glare quietly went after his
double-barrel shot gun. He took
aim from a window, emptying two
shells at them and Is fully confident
that he hit them. He is awaiting
news from the physicians that might
have been called In the case.
