OF EAST ORANGE
President Campbell Accuses
Commission OF Malice in Effort
to Cripple Police department.

In q statement issued to g. STAR re-
porter last nIgnt, Jonn W.. C. Camp
Deli, president OF the Board of Police
commissioners OF East Orange, sharply
criticised the action of the Playground
Commission in lauding Patrolman Nor
ris ~t'ennessey for. ordering Police ON
missioner Edgar Sharp off the Orange
Oval Playground.
The incident occurred during athletic
contests Labor Day. Fennessey was
publicly reprimanded by the Board OF
Police Commissioners. Recently the.
Fairgrounds Commission in its report
commended the policeman for. his work.
President Campbell's, statement fol-
lows:. -.
THE action OF. the Fairgrounds Com
mission not only shows ignorance Of
police discipline. but tends to. create
strife anu dissension in the police force.
A man with any ability knows 1t IL
impossible to COVER a large body of
men without discipline; he also should
know that the first rule of discipline Is
respect to his superior officers.
The Board of Police Commissioners
passed . resolution to send a detacn-
ment of men to the playground on
Labor Day and Commissioner Sharp
with the good OF the city. at heart, went
down early and did yeoman service TO
keep the GRO wd in line ,.e
A 4 p. m, while in. his oflcial9ca-
pacity, he was standing in front Of the
gran. tand when he, was requested by
Patrolman Fennessey to move away.
COMMISSIONS Sharp asked the officer
! ne did not know he was a3comrnis-
sioner. but vas told by the officer that
1t made no difference and WAS taken
by the arm and forcibly.. removed. This
the commission, considered a gross
breach Of discipline.
.. desire to say hove" said Mr..
Campbell, that il he or any other
officer be guilty of a Hike offense he
viii be more severely dealt with.
when one knows" continued Com
missioner Campbell. that the play
ground commissioners were allowed to
stand before the grandstand unmo-
Tested, and then later made question
ale comments on a police official who
in his official capacity objected to being
ordered away by one of his patrolmen.
the only thing left for us to believe is
that those remarks were made with
malice af%orethought in an endeavor to
cripple the efficiency of the police de-
~actment."

MORE DOGS SHOW
RABIES SYMPTOMS
IN West HUDSON

Dogs, seemingly rabid, are still Civ

there is real reason for the scare is
the opinion of local physicians ana
others competent to discuss the ques-
ton.
The latest sensations in the canine
end Of the town, and the brains Of the
two Gogs killed have been sent to New
York for microscopical examination.
Rabid symptoms developed suddenly
late last night in a dog owned by Leon

Arlington, and the family was SO ter
rorized by the Infatuated animal hat

could do nothing to abate the dogs
agony, and urged that 1t be shot at
once. Mr.. Sheperd tied the dog to a
fence at Lovell's factory about .
o'clock this morning and Patrolman
George Holt soon dispatched the animal
with q pistol shot.
DIR. Stearns is confident that the dog
WAS mad. 1t had the characteristic
white blister spots in the. eyes,, n ir-
regular gait and other indications of
hydrophobia, 1t is said. The animal is
believed to have been bitten by a dog
called Admiral Togo, and which was
proved to be rabid.

as the Brooklyn Zouaves or Red Legs"
and was very popular wherever It was
encamped. While in Winter quarters
near Culpeper il gave a series of min
strel performances which were heartily
enjoyed from headquarters to wagon
train. But that it could fight as well
as make fun was shown by its gallantry
on the battlefields of the first and sec

opened upon us a savage fire: This
distance was short. the range quite &C
curate and the fire was destructive at
first. Gen. Ridwell and others were
killed and many We're wounded, but our
line was not broken or greatly dis
turbed. Upon hugging the crest most
of the missiles went over our heads.
Early is mistaken in supposing that his
artillery drove us from the crest. 1t
did not. We endured it full half an
hour, when there was another infantry
attack. This third attack was not a
very vigorous or persistent one, but they
drove in our skirmishers and came
near enough to our lines to receive our
fire. This time their line was much
longer than ours and extended far to
our right. Gen. Getty was in posi-
ton to see that their extended line had
come around the woods TO our right
and threatened our rear. He gave the
order to fall back. We did so deliber-
ately, leaving a skirmish line on the
crest, which held the position until it
WAS ordered back short distance,
where it continued TO hold it's position
long after Sheridan came and until our
whole army moved to an attack late in
the afternoon. The division formed n
new line along a fence and stone wall,
with its left resting on the pike, and
continued to hold it. The enemy did
not seem inclined to attack us or fol-
low us closely. Our skirmish line re-
pulsed all attacks or pretended attacks
upon it. 1t was on this line that Sheri-
dan found US. And it was from this
line that the general attack was made
in the afternoon, resulting in driving
the enemy from the field, capturing
many prisoners, guns, ammunition, am
balances and supplies

thereby saving the army for a decisive
victory. Perhaps il is not strange that
the Confederates should mistake this
division for the sixth Corps, that Pc
gram should take the skirlnish line for
a division, or that Wharton should
think the Sixth Corps was advancing
when he was followed down the slope
by n sliirmish line from the Vermont
Brigade. They certainly did make these
mistakes. There was not another COM
mand of Federal infantry anywhere
