MAYOR
PRAISES RECORD
OF TOWN COUNCIL
Bloomfield Executive Says Pres
ent Body Has Secured More linz
pr0vements Than Any Other.

Mayor William P. S%utphen, of Bloom
field, made a statement at the ina
meeting of The year of the Town Coun-
ell last night, in which he reviewed the
work accomplished during his four
years term of office. A vote of thanks
to the retiring executive for his cour-
tesy was adopted unanimously. Coun-
cilmen Unangst and Chabot expressed
regret at Mayor Sutphen's retirement,
as well as that of Councilman Walker.
Mayor Sutphen's obituary" as he
termed it, included a statement that
the Council devoted more time to pub
lie works than my previous admins
tration. The three great needs of the
town-the adjustment of grade cross
ings on the Lackawanna railroad, the
acquisition and Improvement of low
lands between the two stations on that
road for park purposes, and a new hlgn
school b~uilding--have been provided for.
1.-THE Council" he said, has also
solved the problem of improving the
trolley service to Newark by arranging
with the Public Service Railway Com
pany for a direct line to Newark in ad-
dition to the regular service of through
cars on Bloomfield avenu This direct
line will run from Broad street, Newark.
through Bloomfield emu turning at
Bloomfield Centre, up Broad street to
Fay avenue. This new line, in add
ton to the present trolley service will.
we believe, provide adequate accom-
mediation for our citizens travelling to
and from Newark.
81 congratulate you on the record of
the year and wish to thank all those
town officials and citizens who have as
sisted the Council and through whose
support this progress has been made.
/ wish rticularly to express my APP
probation of the valuable assistance
received from the town attorney. the
town clerk and the town engineer in
connection with the work of the Coun-
ell. The town attorney Is to be par
ticularly commended for the valuable
work which he a done in negotiating
the contract with the Lackawanna
Railroad Company, ar extremely i'm
portant piece of work which was car
ried out to the great satisfaction of
this Council and the people of the town.
Looking back over the work of the
past four years I am proud to have
been a member of councils which have
accomplished so much for our town,
and particularly of the Council of 1910,
which has secured more in the way
of improvements for the town of
Bloomfield than any other council II
its history.
II wish you all a happy Il sue
tessful New Year

PAROLE
DISPLEASES MAN
WHOM He SHOT
South Orange Policeman Does
Not Sanction Release Of Man
Who Shot Him.

Despite the fact that Police Marshal
Thomas F. Mcguire, of South Orange
still carries a bullet in his thigh, whlcn
vas fired from a revolver in the hanus
of Richard Deitzel, a burglar, Win TIC
intent to kill ten years ago the Court
of Pardons at Trenton yesterday grant
ed a release to the a~ssailant, VINO was
originally sentenced to serve nineteen
years in prison.
Marshal Mcguire did not sanction the
pardon, and said today that he was
not pleased with the action or the
court.
Repeated attempts were made by
Deitzel. his wife, who lives In TINS
CITY. and friends to have the South
Orange bluecoat sanction the pardon
ON several occasions. He received many
letters from the man who shot him ana
also from his wife, but never answered
any of them. Three weeks ago a Irleho
of Deitzel's in Trenton called on the
policeman and endeavored to persuade
him to give consent, blu he reluseu'
declaring that the prisoner Is a would
be murderer.
The shooting occurred on August z,
1900. Mcguire, who was a night patrol
man at the time, was awakened from
his slumbers in the afternoon by MS
mother. who told him that a man whom
she believed to be a burglar had lett
the vacant home of Walter q. Crooks
155 Fairview avenue, near by. Inc
bluecoat quickly dressed and followed
the stranger. who carried with him a.
bundle.
Deitzel sat on the marble steps at
the entrance of Seton Hall College
awaiting q trolley when Mcguire
placed him under arrest, and on the
way to the village police station the
burglar said he would prove his iden-
LITIGATION by some cards j. his pocket.
He, however. n ~ = revolver from
his pocket srf laced it at the police
mans tie. A quick move of Ma
gu'.}~s knocked the weapon to one
side, and the shot intended to kill en-
tered his groin. A second shot was
fired and entered the ankle. Mcguire
lay wounded and Deitzel made his es-
cape, with considerable booty, through
the fields in the direction of Hilton. He
was captured at the point of revolvers
at his home in Springfield avenue, this
city, several days after by Detective
Sergeants Jackes and Koerber.
Mcguire Is still bothered with the
bullet, which physicians have failed to
locate by the X-ray treatment.
