BELIEVES BOARD
ACTED PROPERLY
COURT SEES NO CONTE1uC IN
SECOND CUSTER PROCEED
INGS OF PRISON BODY.

Instead OF being in contempt Of
court. as counsel for Or. Charles v.
Darlington appeared to think. Judge
Scott in the City Circuit Court yss-
terday morning declared that the
action OF the State prison board In
summoninE the deposed surgeon to
appear before that body Saturday at
ternoon was clearly = recognition by
the board OF his ruling on Tuesday
to the effect that DR.. Darlington was
illegally deposed when the board
ousted him some weeks ago without
a hearing.
Although DR.. Carrington's attorneys
asked for an immediate mandamus
to prevent the directorate from again
removing him from otfice before the
instructions OF the court had been
complied with. Judge Scott did not
deem such a mandamus proper under
the circumstances and refused to
grant 1t.
Discussing the matter. the court
satti:s" .If the board Of directors Of
the penitentiary do in any manner
challenge the authority Of this court
it may become my duty to have them
put In jail. But the court considers
that In holding o meeting yesterday
and summoning DR.. Darlington to
appear before 1t next Saturday. the
board has acted within It's riyhta.''
Its Mind II Made Up.
1t is declared to be the fun in.
tention OF the board to again re-
move DR.. Darlington from ONCE
when 1t meets Saturday. Meanwhile,
counsel for the board IL preparing to
take appeal from the decision of
Judge Scott. by which DR.. Darlington
was restored to office. Next Monday
IL the last day on which the appea
can be noted, according to the rul
ing Of the court
DR.. Darlington Will appear befoi
the board with counsel, as exclusivel,
indicated In these columns yesterda.
morning, and will doubtless note for
NAL exception to the action Of thu
body when he II ousted. What will
happen after that Ii left to conjecture
though It ia q safe guess to say tina
the matter will find Its way into coul
just as in the case of the previous
custer proceedings.

REGRET ACTION
TO BAR PASSES
Gensral Feeling that Police
and Firemen Should Ride.
Especial Correspondence

Trenton, April 29:-Public utility
corporations in New Jersey will be
relieved of the embarrassment incl
dent to the issue of passes. Even
firemen and policemen, even though
they be In uniform, will not be car
ried free after Monday next on any
common carrier. This will be a
sweeping change. 1t was always
considered good policy for a street
railroad to carry fremen or police
lei in uniform free, but the new
law does not even exempt these two
classes of individuals.
No doubt the lawmakers pur-
posed to make any municipality alb
solutely free from any influence of
any kind from a public utility cor
poration. Hence, If any city deems
it advisable or for the benefit of the
municipality to have policemen and
f1remen carried by the trolley lines,
arrangements will have to be made
Otherwise, inrdifYildualsWiu find
it incumbent upon them to pay their
own fares. Firemen and policemen
do not receive such generous sala-
ries that they will be disposed to
pay their fares and ride when on
duty. If the moYey must come out
of their. own pockets they will I'M
dOubtedly walk and If the service
suffers by the additional time re-
quired as a result, the public will
have to stand the consequences.
Criticism has been made of the
legislature that while 1t was careful
to cut out the iremen and policemen
from the privileges of free transport
t%atiOn, provision was made for the
continuation of the pass privilege
for the members and for a large
number Of state officials, the list of
which was added to materially.
Naturally, this fact has caused some
dissatisfaction outside of the favor
ed classes, but inasmuch as the gov
ernor has affixed his signature to
the public utility bill, it Is now a
law, and nc relief can be afforded
this year. Whether the temper of
the legislature next winter will be
favorable to the modification of this
drastic edict against passes is an un-
known quantity.
That the various utility corpora
tons affected by this feature Of the
law are pleased with it's provisions
in this respect is probably true. And
yet. some of the officials admit that
they have always felt that the two
of men-fremen and police
men-carried free in nearly every
city, were deserving of the courte-
sizes and seldom, if ever were they
known to abuse it.

WRIGHT BROS.
GAIN A POINT
French Court to Appoint a
Commission to Decide.
Special BIZ United Press Wire.

Paris, April 20: The Wright
brothers won a decided victory in The
Civic Tribunal in their attempt to prove
that they control the basic patent on
a~eroplanes.
The court announced that it would
appoint three experts to decide whether
the Wrights first used the combination
of warping wings and a vertical rud-
der. The court overruled the motion
of the Bleriot manufacturerstthat the
Wright patent went by default, because
they were not exploited. The Judge
said in his ruling that if the Wrights
failed to exploit their patent it was
plain that this was because of INSULT
c At funds.
To-day's decision is preliminary to
the real question of whether Bleriot
and other French manufacturers have
infringed on the Wright patent. The
decision of the committee of three ap-
pointed to-day will have much to do in
the deciding of this point.
