G. o. P. NOMINEES SUPPORT
MONTCLAIR SEWER SCHEME

The proposal of Mayor Hinck and
the Town Council to establish an in
dependent sewage disposal system,
rather than have the municipality be-
come a partner in the project of the

of the Republican Club of Upper Mont
clair.
Through it's executive committee
Benjamin Moore, Ellis L. Aldrich and
Ebert r. Tillinghast-the club sent
letters to Solomon Wright. jr., and
Henry F. Holloway, candidates for the
Republican nomination for the Legis-
~lature, in which each was asked
whether he would, in the event of his
nomination and election. support the
position the Town Council has taken.
Both Mr.. Holloway, who is the Regu-
lar Republican candidate, and Mr..
Wright, who is favored by the Pro-
gressives, have submitted replies
which show that they favor Mont
clair's attitude.
Mayor Hinck is now in Essen, Ger
many, making a personal inspection Of
an independent sewage disposal plant
similar to the one that 1t is proposed
to establish here.

seen around the rig.
There were about 200 at the outing,

sneaked over to the cigarette counter
and, according to Brady, took four
packages of cigarettes valued at fifteen
cents per package.

place. Brady followed, but the la had

SOCIETY MEN WHO
FIGURED IN ROW
To FACE CHARGES
Complaints Made Against Ben
jamin M. Barr and Son by
Bloomfield Constable.

Although no warrants have been is'
sued in Glen Ridge for their arrest
Benjamin M. Barr and his son. Bert
Barr, who are well-known in society
circles of that town, are expected &c
come out from New York to answer any
charges that may be made against
them by Constable Benjamin F. Bald
win, his son, Stanford Baldwin, or
Michael Drudy, a fruit dealer. The
Baldwins and Drudy reside in Bloom
field. There was a free-for-all fight
when the Baldwins attempted to serve
a writ of attachment On furniture be-
longing to the Bars.
Constable Baldwin had his jaw brok-
en- and was otherwise injured In the
row. Stanford Baldwin, who accom-
panied his father, and who Is we'll
known as an athlete and former men,
Der of the crack football eleven of the
Forest Hill Field Club, was also rough
ly handled when he went to the assist
ance of his father.
The writ was issued by Justice of
the Peace George M. Cadmus, u Bloom
field, at the instance of Drudy, a pro-
luce dealer of hat town, who claims
Barr owes him $199 for fruit and vege-
tables. The Baldwins arrived at the
Barr house. at so Lincoln street, just
as one of Job q Camp Company's
furniture vans was about to start away
with a load of goods. Baldwin halted
the negro driver and told him of the
writ of attachment.
1t was then, according to the aged
constable, that Barr and his son Bert
ran out and young Barr snatched the
writ from the elder Baldwin's hand,
and after tearing it in pieces struck
the constable in the face and knocked
him down. Stanford Baldwin started
to assist his parent when a solar plexus
blow landed by the elder Barr rem
dered him hors du combat. A general
fight ensued and the Baldwins tool the
losers end. The constable's left eye
was closed and both were badly done
up.
In the meantime Drudy appealed TO
the Glen Ridge police for assistance,
but when it was not forthcoming at
once he and the Baldwins hurried be-
fore Police Recorder George w. Cad
mus in Bloomfield and secured war
rants from him for the arrest of the
Bars on charges of assault and battery
preferred by the Baldwins.
Police Sergeant John R. Bayliss, of
Bloomfield, went to Glen Ridge and
turned the warrants over to Police
Chief Patrick Higgins to serve. The
Bars, however; had departed for Man
haitian.
Later Charles Drayton, driver of the
van, was held up by Policeman Thomas
F. Moran in Bloomfield at the instance
of Drudy. Drayton refused to stop ana
was arrested and fined $40 by Recorder
Cadmus. William Kent, a negro. a
driver of another var, got into an g
ment with Constable Baldwin and
Patrolman John Blum. According to
Baldwin, Kent struck him. Kent was
arrested and held in 5000 bail on an ass
sault charge.
