T. j. SCULLY
FAVORS POST
OFFICE: MEN

Thomas j. Scully, the democratic
candidate for congress from the
third district, agreed last night that
if elected, he would support a bill
giving postoffice clerks an eight
hour day AS Congressman Benja-
min F. Howell made similar prom
ises on Sunday, it looks as though
the clerks will surely receive what
they want.
Secretary William Pemberton, Of
the local branch of the Postoitice
Clerks Association, visited Mr..
Scully in South Amboy last night.
The subject was placed before him
in a clear and comprehensive man
ner and he promised to support the
measure. On Sunday Secretary
Pemberton and Richard l.. Preston,
the latter also a clerk in the local
postoffice, visited Congressman How
ell. The same subject was spread
clearly before him and he agreed to
support it.
The clerks think an eight-hour
day is due them and to that end they
are fighting with all their might.
They have concluded that at this
time, prior to election, is the oppor-
tune time to investigate and ascer-
tain what the respective candidates
stand for.

TELEPHONE 60.
To COMBINE 3
OFFICES HERE

The New York Telephone Com
pany are fast completing arrange
ments to make the local telephone
exchange in Smith street, this city,
the central Office for three adjoining
places, Tottenville, Woodbridge and
South Amboy. 1t is the plan of the
company to have all three of the To-
cal Offices in these places turned in
to the Office here some time after
the first of the year.
A new cable has been laid under
the Sound from the foot of Smith
street to the foot of Amboy avenue,
in Tottenville. This cable, contain
ing 500 pair of wires, has been ex-
tended out Amboy avenue and Hop
ping avenue as far as Patten street,
in TottenYille. From there a two
hundred pair cable has been run to
the office in Main street. Another
cable containing 200 pair of wires
has been placed On the poles running
from the office in Main street and
out Amboy avenue to the water. This
work was completed yesterday by
the linemen and cablemen from this
city.
Part of the work of running cable
in Woodbridge has been completed.
With but few days more work
there, that office will be ready to be
thrown into this exchange.
In South Amboy the work of put
ting up cable will probably be start
ed some time this week or the first
Of next, according to what could be
learned.
At present the Office in Tottenville
has three operators and chief op-
orator in the daytime and two oper-
ators all night. At the Woodbridge
exchange there are four operators,
two on days and two at night, and
the same are on duty in South Am
boy. With the combining of these
three out-of-town offices, with the
local exchange, the subscribers in
those sections will be given the ben
eft of the common battery or light
system that is in use here.
The Tottenville Office takes in all
of the lower part of the island from
Annadale on one side and Green
ridge on the other side The Wood
bridge office takes in Sewaren and
adjacent places, while South Amboy
is the exchange for Morgan Heights
and Morgan Station.
Plans for the enlargement of the
local exchange building, it Is under
stood, will be made by the telephone
company to accommodate the new
posititions that will have to be put
in for these three out-of-town Of
fees.

Wilson Begins Last Week of
the Campaign Amid Great
Enthusiasm.

Jersey City, Nov. 1:-With the
emphatic assertion that he expected
to be the next governor of New Jer-
;ey, which statement was wildly
oheered, Woodrow Wilson began the
last week of his memorable campaign
in whirlwind of excitement and
enthusiasm in Bayonne and Jersey
City last night and showed he was in
the finest condition for the hard
gruelling run down the homestretch.
Woodrow Wilson's first utterances
revealed he will give the republicans
some plain talk and characterization
this week. His very first words were:
Il have been trying to conduct the
discussions of this campaign on a
high and broad plane, but the repub-
ltcans have forgotten how to conduct
such campaign and have descended
to a campaign Of personalities, cen
treing around the democratic candi-
date, and are studiously, designedly
and falsely misrepresenting the dem
ocratic candidate and his views on
vital problems" Tremendous cheers
greeted his assertion that he expect
ed to be the next governor of New
Jersey, and as such desired to tell
TIC pSOplS uOW hS WOulA 6ldAu Ou
the labor question when he reached
Trenton.
Great enthusiasm was created by
his pledge that when he became gov
ernor he would do everything in his
power to get satisfactory legislation
for laboring men. He would be no
mans partisan and would not make
a pledge to any mans friend, for if
he was not such already he could
not become one by promises.
Woodrow Wilson faced another
great throng at st. Johns Hall, Jer-
sey City.
In his address Mr.. Wilson said:
~ want to speak to this crowd of
men tonight on the subject of labor.
Not because my views have been mis-
because / know work
ingmen enough to know that they
are not going to be misled by things
of that sort. l know their independ-
ence and know that they are not
going to be deceived by gross and
wilful Misrepresentation. But
want to speak of labor because I be-
lieve l am going to be elected gov
ernor of New Jersey, and because /
want you men to understand how /
look at the subject of labor, so that
when we come to deal with this COM
plicated and important question in
later months we may know how we
are dealing with one another.
" Now, there is only one way in
which to look at the question of labor
It Is not fair to look at labor separate
" as If laboring men did not form a
part and the fundamental part of our
society. 1t is not fair to look at capi-
tai separately. as If capitalists formed
a separate group. Separate labor from
capital and capital is helpless, and Ia

MOTION TO ADD
TWOPHYSICIANS
TO STAFF LOST

An attempt to take action on the
proposed increase to the city hospital
staff was made yesterday afternoon
at the weekly meeting of the Board
of Managers, but was subsequently
turned down by George j. Haney.
chairman of the board, on a dispute
concerning the number constituting
q quorum. Four members, including
the chairman, were present. When
the ballot was cast the vote was split
and Edward L. Gridley, one of the
members, declared the motion car
ried.
Mr. Haney and William D. Voor-
hees, who cast the negative votes,
interposed and declared the ballot
tied. Mr.. Gridley contended that
the president was allowed a vote only
in case of a tie among the board
therefore the motion had been car
ried at two to one, But Mr.. Haney,
the president, settled the dispute by
declaring the motion a tie, and on
the recommendation of the chair
lost. Mr. Gridley Immediately ap-
pealed from his decision, which re-
suited in an argument in which Mr..
Haney declared Mr.. Gridley was
running the board.
The outcome of the matter was
that Mr.. Haney, on Mr.. Gridley' g
suggestion, appointed himself COM
mittee of one to see Henry w. Jones,
secretary of the board. Mr. Jones's
absence was probably the cause of
the disagreement yesterday after
noon, as Mr. Gridley and Mr.. Haney
were of different opinions as to
whether or not to transact any busi-
ness in the absence of the secretary.
When Mr.. Jones is interviewed and
it is ascertained whether or not he
has received a reply from DR.. j. G.
Wilson, president Of the hospital
staff, concerning his views on the
proposed addition to the staff, an
other meeting of the board will be
called. This will probably be Thurs
day or Friday.
DIR. G. w. Fithian and DR.. Charles
I. Silk were the physicians recon-
mended in the lost motion as the
additional members of the staff.
Their names were proposed by Mr..
Gridley, and on the ballot Mr. Grid

ley and Samuel G. Garretson voted
in the affirmative and Messrs. Haney
and Voorhees, In the negative.
1.-THE motions won," declared Mr.
Gridley. Mr.. Garretson thought like
wise, but the other two members
couldn't see 1t that way. Mr.. Gridley
said the majority of four is two
when the president Is allowed to
vote. Mr.. voorhees, contended that
the president or chairman was allow
ed vote, and wanted to wager on 1t.
I'm not betting man." replied
Mr.. Gridley, but Well look it up In
Cushing's Manual" His interlocu-
tor replied that he, as president of
the Board of Aldermen, was allowed
a vote. only on special action,
though returned Mr.. Gridley.
Mr., Haney settled the argument by
declaring the vote a tie, and, ON rec
ommendation of the chair, lost. Mr..
Gridley appealed. In the short argu-
ment which ensued Mr. Haney re-
piled to Mr.. Gridley's statement that
he did not intend to let the matter
drop. Neither do I, but at the
same time l don't intend that you
should run this board" said Mr.
Haney. Mr. Gridley denied that he
was attempting to control the board
and said he saw no need of Mr..
Haney making any such insinuation.
1t was decided to appoint a COM
mittee of one to interview Mr.. Jones.
Mr.. Haney appointed himself, and
another meeting will be held during
the latter part of the week
In speaking of Mr.. Jones's absence
Mr.. Gridley wanted to know why he
hadn't telephoned or notified the
board of his inability to appear He
deemed it peculiar that Mr.. Jones
should remain away without notice,
inasmuch as he had announced his
intention of attending the meeting
only a few hours before.
1.-THE only reason l have for op-
posing Mr. Gridley's motions Is be-
cause / want to hear from DR..
Wilson, through Mr. Jones, before
taking action" said Mr. VOORHEES,
after the meeting. There's no use
of our rushing this thing through
until after we've heard from the
medical staff"

NEW SYSTEM OF
MAIL DELIVERY
STARTED TODAY

The mail delivery system which be-
came effective this morning has been
tested and found to work to perfection.
It has eased the work of the carriers and
caused the city to get better mail de-
livery than ever before in its history.
All deliveries are being made from a
half to almost two hours earlier than
before the inauguration of the new sys-
TEN. In the southeastern section of
the city the system has enabled three
deliveries a day instead of two as for
merly. -Four deliveries are being made
in the business section as before, but
they are being made earlier and more
quickly.
Postmaster George H. Tice is elated
over the splendid success of the system
he has adopted. He accompanied Worth
Comings on his route this morning and
found that the delivery was being made
quicker than ever and that it will be
done more quickly as the carriers be-
come accustomed to their new territor-
les. He saw that the carrier did not

stop more than minute at a house
where there was no mail box up and
the occupants of the place failed to
respond to the call. Such places were
passed over. Mr.. Tice said in connec-
tion with this, that the time is not far
distant when every hous" owner and
tenant in the city will be obliged to put
up mail receptacles if they wish their
mail to be delivered at their place of
business or residence.
Mail is now being delivered in the
northwestern and western parts of the
city in territory where no deliveries
were made heretofore. This addition
caused the city to be divided into ten
routes and as consequence, ten car
riers are now doing duty.
Commencing today the postof1ice will
be open from o. clock in the morning
until o clock at night and the money
order department hours have been shor
order department hours have been
shortened from $50 O'Clock in the
morning until SO clock in the after
noon.

POINT AGAINST
COPPERWORkS
By PLAINTIFFS

A point in favor of the plaintiff was
won yesterday in the suit of Valentine
Kishner and Elmer Elliott against the
Raritan Copper Works, when an order
was given prohibiting the defendants
from taking tes imony in the matter at
their local plant. AS a result testimony
is being heard today in the offices Of
Boyntou brothers, in Smith street.
The point was won by Counsel JOS
eph e. Stricken and associate counsel
George s. Silzer, for the plaintiffs, and
the United States Circuit Court SO far
supported their contention in the mat
ter as to make it absolutely clear that
the taking of testimony in the deten-
dant s plant could not be tolerated in
any way The chief reason given was
that witnesses might be intimidated
at the sight Of factory officials their
employers, in the office where the testi-
mony was being taken
One witness was heard at the eein-
pany's plant, following notice from the
defendants counsel to the plaintiffs

The matter was brought before tae lui-

tion was quickly ana definitely settled
in favor of the plaintiffs. At hTst the
Judge would not have listened TO ne

that the action of the defendants Was to

NOT MUCH CAMPAIGN
LITERATURE IN MAILS

Comparing the volume of mail be-
Ing sent through the postoffice with
that sent the corresponding time of
last year there is very small
amount of campaign literature in
circulation this year About this
time last year the Office was literally
swamped with campaign stuff and
carriers and clerks were compelled
to work overtime. Thus far there
has been little evidence of any kind
of campaign matter in the postoffice.
A large amount of it, however, is be-
ing distributed at republican ward
meetings every day or two.
