SAYS HE is UNABLE TO
GET TELEPHONE SERVICE.
Utilities Commission Hears Wes1
Orange Mans Complaint.

TRENTON, Jan. AT the hearing
before the public utility commission
yesterday on the complaint of Hei bert
Turrell, of West Orange, hat he was
unable to obtain telephone service, the
New York Telephone Company in max
ing answer shows that it is willing to
furnish telephone service, but 1t is pre-
vented from so doing by the local
governing body of West Orange.
Through It's counsel, William Mac
Hard, the telephone company has sub
mitted to the board that it has plans
prepared for furnishing additional cir
cults for the district in which Mr..
Turrell lives. These plans involve the
laying of an underground cable in Or
ange at Stockton street and fremont
avenue for a distance of about 300 feet
to a pole on the latter avenue. In
order to do this work, the company
said, 1t was necessary to obtain a
street-opening permit from the COM
mittee on streets of Orange.
The company made application for
such permission on June 28, 1909, and
renewed 1t on October 81, 1909, but has
been unable to obtain the permission
notwithstanding further efforts in that
direction. At a conference yesterday
afternoon 1t was decided to lay over
Mr.. Turrells complaint pending a o
ference between his counsel, L. D. II.
Gilmour. and the city counsel of Or
ange. This will be held with a view to
obtaining permission to lay the under
ground cable. The company has a num-
Der of applications for telephones in
West Orange which it is unable to fill
under present conditions.

RELATIVES TAKE
AWAY BRIDE OF
3 MONTHS IN CAB
WOman's Screams in Early
Hours Rouse Harrison Resi-
dents and Attract Cop

The sight of a cab rushing through
Harrison streets early today aroused
the suspicious of Patrolman John Ryan,
who was walking along Hamilton
street. and the bluecoat decided to fol-
low the vehicle. The trail led up
Fourth street to Cross street and the
driver pulled up in front of 212 Cross
street.
When a block away from the house
Ryan heard the screams of a woman
and he broke into a rum. He reached
the place Just as two men were placing
in the cab a white object. People in
the neighborhood, who had been
aroused by the screams, were peering
from their windows. and the bluecoat
was the ntr OF attraction.
Ryan asked the cabby the nature of
his fare. One of the men who helped
carry out the object Of Ryan's suspi-
cions said it was q woman who was
"heart-broken." The brass-button
wearer looked into the cab and there
beheld a very pale-looking He
seemed nonplussed for a minute and
Inen maue up HIS inllu W Lame Oil W
the police station.
William Smith, of Az Bergen street,
Newark, proved to be the one who had
offered the information regarding the
woman to the policeman. He Told Ser
geant James Foster that the woman
was his sister, Mrs. John Williams, a
bride of three months, and that she
was a nervous wreck. Just what is
responsible for her condition could not
definitely be learned. 1t was alleged
that Williams had not treated her
properly, but the latter insisted that
he had always tried to prove himself a
kind and loving husband. Williams
who has lived in Harrison all his life,
bears a good reputation.
1t was learned from neighbors that
screams were heard coming from the
Williams apartments at intervals last
night.
After hearing Smiths story Sergeant
Foster allowed the cabby to drive
away with his fare. Smith told the
police that Mrs. Williams was going
home to her mother at the Berger.
street address. The cabby made a
start for Newark about 1880 a. m. and
Ryan went back to his post, satisfied
that HI had acted wisely.

COUNCIL LEARNS
It HAS NOT YET
BEEN ORGANIZED
Craftsmanship Deadlock in East
Orange Body Results in Pc
culiar Situation.

With the deadlock now switched
from the first two candidates to COM
promise selections, citizens Of East Or
ange are expected to take a further
hand in the City Council embarrassing
muGdie. There were nc choppers" on
either side last night.
Some councilmon favored remaining
until a chairman was finally named,
but when City Attorney Borden d.
Whiting, in reply to a query from
Councilman Grover, advised the Coun-
ell o to proceed with the appointment
of committees until a permanent chair
man was named, there came D halt.
1t develops that the Council is not
yet organized, unless Mr.. Whiting finds
something to change the view he now
holds before the next meeting on Sat
urday night, and the present officers in
the City Hall may not have been
legally confirmed.
The real point at issue is whether
the body is a Council or not. Giving
an off-hand decision, Mr.. Whiting said
he thought the solons were merely act
ing as officials. He has promised a
written opinion.
One compromise was finally effected
when committees were named for the
year, the councilmen deciding to take a
chance until Saturday night by having
them act. Mr.. Whiting is to deter
mine whether they are really legal
committees.
The line is drawn tightly between
the two factions. Councilmen j.. Lenorl
Merrill and Frederick Saxelby are now
the two candidates and each have four
supporters.
If for any reason some member or
members fird 1t impossible to attend
Saturday nights meeting 1t was mu-
tually agreed no advantage would be
taken in their absence in n balloting
for chairman. The body was in ses-
sion LAST night until 1870 o'clock.

kEARNEY SWORN
IN AS ASSESSOR
DESPITE PROTEST

William j. Kearney, of the Fourth
ward, Orange, was sworn in as an as
SCISSOR yesterday afternoon at the Of
fee of City Clerk Willet b. Gano. He
now awaits his assignment to an as
sessment district. The other two as
SCISSORS, John p. Lee and Terence j.
Devine, were also sworn in. AT the
organization meeting of the Common
Council on Monday night Councilman
Henry T. Stetson protested against the
legality of Kearney's ~selechtion. Stet-
son, who Is a Democrat, bolted the ma
jority and declined to accept Mr.
Kearney as the caucus choice,
stood out for Bernard f. Fineran.
Mr.. Stetson appealed from the
decision Of the president in de-
claring MIR. Kearny elected on
the ground that the council rules
require a majority of the entire council
to elect and Mr.. kearney had but seven
votes out of the fourteen of the entire
body, the six Republicans voting for A.
E. Robinson and Mr.. Stetson support
ing Mr.. Fineran. Mr.. Coleman USED
the "steam roller" on Mr.. Stetson's
appeal, however, and gave the position
to Mr.. Kearney.
william Schluer, former health
officer, who was also opposed by Mr..
Stetson for appointment to the Board
of Health, was in the group of officials
when K~earney was sworn in and as he
had seven votes, as did MI. Kearney,
he offered to take the oath of office.
Mr.. Gano explained, however, that
the decision that Schluer was elected,
had been successfully appealed from
the decision of the chair and Mr..
schluer did not insist. The fight in
the majority is not over by any means
and a meeting on Monday night will
likely develope another quarrel,
