MAN AND WOMAN SQUARE
OFF" FOR FIGHT IN COURT.

The Harrison Police Court was the
scene of a hot argument this afternoon
and had not the police interviewed a
man and woman would have engaged
in hsticuffs, as a matter of fact they
had squared off" and Policeman Peter
Brady jumped between the principals
just as they were getting ready t.
swing on each other.
Miss Mary Hueston was the woman
in This particular case. She sought to
criticise her brother-in-law, Joseph
Herrick. who had been arrested and
fined SO for punching his wife and a
man who was with her. Herrick was
arrested by Brady at noon. He was
taken to the police station, and his
wife. as complainant, showed a badly
discolered face and a closed eye as
the result of a beating she declared
her husband administered.
The Herricks were in court last Sat-
urday. and Judge Branegan at that
time told them to settle their differ
ences within a week. Herrick, who is
a baker. was at work early today,
when he happened to see his wife In
the company of another man, walking
along Harrison avenue. He started
after the pair, and when they saw him
they started to run. Herrick caught
them. however, and gave each a sound
trouncing. His arrest followed.
The Herricks ave been married but
a short time and the husband declares
that his wife is too fond of running
around to dances. He works steady,
he said, and was willing to do every
thing possible to make their lives
happy. Herrick was one Of the crew
that fought under Admiral Dewey and
took delight In describing the fight. The
fine imposed by Judge Branegan was
readily paid by his employer.

more generous provision than that
formerly made by the government for
its old soldiers.
All the veterans who served ninety
days will be given SIS a month. If
they served for more than six n
the pension will be $50, and If more
than nine months $25. All those who
served for a year or more will be given
the full $50.
Should any veteran, however, be I'M
fit for manual labor or should he have
peer wounded so badly that he cannot
now carr a living he will be given $50
Irrespective of the length of time he
served.
Payment of those pensions will COM
hence from the date Of filing the APP
plication in the Bureau of Pensions
after the approval of the act granting
them.
Flavel w. Sullivan, secretary Of the
Second Regiment Association of he
G. A. r, said to an Evening STAR re-
porter today:
This new Law will be a great help
to many veterans, but, at the same
time, the number of veterans 1t will aid
is becoming smaller and smaller all the
time.
According to the old system, when
a Civil War veteran reached the age
of 60 years he was entitled to s12 a
month, at 20 he was given $15 and at rs
he was allowed $50.
Without thinking very much about
it. some people had commented upon
what a large sum Of money it will take
to give the veterans a pension under
the new scale. But they don't realize
how very, very few old soldiers are
left. Why, in my own regiment. out
of 1900 only 10s are still alive. / went
over the rolls only the other day."
The maximum pension under the
proposed law will be $40 a month more
than the maximum under the present
act, more veterans will be entitled
to the maximum under the new pro-
! visions.

Just made a decree in which S. Con-
rad OFT, Of Camden, referee in bank
ruptcy, and Bleakley & Stockwell,
counsel for Henry West, trustee of he
bankrupt estate of William ]. Thomp-
son, are sustained in their stand
against certain banks.
They insisted that the banks should
not dispose of certain stocks, held as
security for loans to Mr.. Thompson.
Some time since in connection with
the proceedings against Mr.. Thompson
it developed hat several of the Cam
den banks held certain stocks as col
lateral security for loans made. This
amounted to many thousands of doll
lars. 1t included stock of the Glouces-
ter Ferry Company, the Fries-Harley
Company and the Eastern Telephone
and Telegraph Company. When the
banks applied for an order to sell this
stock counsel for Trustee West OPP
posed 1t on the ground that the stock
would have to be sold at a great sacri-
flee.
