lryington Town Council Calls
Upon George B. Adams to
Make Explanation.

A discrepancy of $167.67 in the ac-
counts of former Tax Collector George
b. Adams was reported to the Irving
ton Town Council last night. A motion
was passed notifying Mr.. Adams to
appear before Councilman David H.
Greene, chairman of the finance COM
mittee, and Town Clerk Mahlon Stock
man and make a satisfactory explana-
tion. Mr.. Adams held office about
three years ago.
Mr.. Adams said today that if any
discrepancy is shown it was due to
errors of bookkeeping. 1t was ex-
planned that the error was on only one
item. 1t is said that the system of the
office was such that one of the stubs
of record could easily have been mis-
laid. Mr.. Adams said an expert ac-
Acountant went over his books at the
end of his term and found everything
satisfactory.
1t was brought out that Isaac Casey,
ST., who was town treasurer at that
time, had refused to sign the tax col

Council.
A resolution of the fire and water

committee, Frederick Eckelhoffer,
recommending the dismissal of the
complaint of former Captain Harvey

Mr.. Osborne sharply replied that lies
had been uttered by the defendant as
we'll as the complainant nj the words
of one man under these conditions
were as good as those of the other.
The complaint brought by Campbell
was the outcome of charges preferred
by Bader against the former while he
was captain at the Colt street fire
house, which resulted in the reduction
of ire captain to the ranks n his
transier to the fire quarters in Town
Hall. Campbell brought countercharges
; against Bader.
The ordinance fixing the salaries Of
the town officials was passed on first
reading.

COUNTY CLERK FARRELL'S
RECORD IS SPLENDID ONE
Pefouisites Eliminated When He

On Economical Business Basis.

In Wayne county's long line Of pub
lie officials, no name stands out more
prominently than that OF Thomas F.

II now nearing the end of his first
term, and in that brief period he has
Instituted reforms that have resulted
IN the saving Of many hundreds OF
dollars for the county and have made
for the greater convenience, accommo-
dation and protection of the public.
One OF Mr.. Farrells first acts. as
county Clerk, was to put stop to the
practice then In vogue Of holding up
Justices and ministers for rake-off
on all marriages put In their way. He
gave his clerks to understand that the
acceptance OF any fee. tip or rake-oh
from such a source would mean In
slant dismissal, and he also instruct
cd the clerks to show no favoritism
In directing matrimonial candidates to
Justices and ministers.
Another reform instituted by Mr..
Farrell had TO do with the handling of
moneys paid into the Wayne circuit
court pending litigation. of which he
became custodian as clerk of the
court. Formerly the interest on these
funds was regarded as perquisite.
Mr.. Farrell, on assuming Office. asked
the court to designate depository,
which II did. Then he transferred the
money on hand from a savings to u
commercial account. arranged for the
payment of two per cent interest on
daily balances and had the interest
credited TO each specific account. SO,

BY w. G. SHEPHERD.

The minute show gets good in
New York, they shoot 1t out onto the
road, these days. Broadway used to
he the battle-ground between the
trust and the independents, and
way was satisfied with his victory.
But it's not that way this season.
When John Cort started his open
door movement he shifted the fight
from Broadway to the country-at-
large. He gave the small theater
owners a chance to demand plays.
And they are demanding them. The
result Is that both sides, this season,
are trying to please the individual
theater owner. They send him the
best they've got. II he's not happy
and making money, they worry
They're even willing to lose money TO
remain in his good graces. It's an
open fight now, and the side he picks
Is the side that wins. Wherefore, the
new hits don't hang around Broad
way long this year.
Klaw & Erlanger, in their effort to
stem the tide of independence, are
trying TO give the country the best
they've got. At Christmas John
Drew will start out on tour in his new
play, Smith," a show that might
have run for two years on Broadway
under the old system. Two compan-
