The petitions for paving. signed
by citizens holding property on the
streets to be improved, were next
submitted. The long lists of the
signers, with the descriptions and

siasm shown by the business men of
the city in supporting the work of

UNDER WILSON'S
LEAD, SOLONS
TRIP UP ON LAW
Governor Signs Contradictory
Bills Approving and Abol-
ishing Trolley Passes.

Under Governor Wilson's direction,
it now develops, the Legislature
tripped up in passing the public utili-
ties bill with the clause against per-
hitting police officers to ride free while
in uniform.
The intention of the Legislature was
shown in Simpson House bill No. 1S6,
passed a month previous to the utility
bill, and which instructs street railway
lines to carry free all police in uniform.
Under the more recent law. all passes,
except to employees. are to be revoked
on Monday, and policemen n hremen
in uniform or civilians clothes will
have TO pay their fares.
How il came TO pass that both bills
were passed, the last one c~ontradieting
the first, IS an unwritten chapter OF
New Jersey history. How 1t came TO
pass that the Governor. who claims
that he is the peoples leader. happened
to sign both bills is still another chap
ter. Some day, of course, it may be
explained. but just now he police and
Hremen feel hat it looks like a case
of laundering or worse.
As for the Public Service Corpora
ton. 1t couldn't have passed a more
welcome bit of legislation if its W
employees filed the chairs of the gov
ernor and the legislators.
In Newark alone the Public Service
will, it is estimated, add SIS, 900 a year
to it's income from this law.

SHOWS DISLIKE
FOR FOREIGNERS
IN HIS REQUESTS
Millionaire Cuts Off Mrs. Burke
R0che-Makes Grandchil-
dren Change Names.

NEW YORK, April 29.-Mrs. Frances
Ellen. -Batonyi is entire
ly cut out of participation in the estate
of her father, Frank Work, whose will
was filed yesterday in the s~urrogate's
office, except insofar as the executors
in their judgment care to make allow
ance for her.
There were filed with the will fifteen
codicils, more than have ever before
been filed with a single testament, so
far as is known. These tell the story
of the reason why Mr.. Work, who
died on March 16 at 13 East Twenty
sixth street in his 92d year, cut down
the income of 100000 a year which he
left to Mrs. Burke-Roche in his will
and increased in a codicil to $4,000
first to $1,000 and then revoked alto
gether.
The codicils reflect the sentiments of
the testator with regard to her court
ship and marriage to Aurel Batonyi, a
Hungarian horseman, from whom she
obtained a divorce about a year n a
half Ago. He provided that in case
of her separation from him his execu-
tors might make Mrs. Burke-Roche-
Batonyi. in case she were in need,
whatever allowance they considered
sufficient. Mr.. Work also took away
from his daughter his house, 10 East
Twenty-sixth street, and turned it over
to the use of his two grandsons.
Must Change Names.
Throughout the many instruments
the testator shows his dislike for Ba-
tonyi and also for his daughters first
husband, John Boothsby Burke-Roche,
making provision that neither shall at
any time have control or possession OF
any part of the estate. Mr.. Work even
insisted that his two ~grandsons, Ed
mund and FRANKIE Burke-Roches and
his granddaughter, Cynthia Burke
Roche, to qualify for their legacies
should change their name to Work
He also provided that his granddaugh-
ter should not marry a foreigner. The
granddaughter is now Mrs. Arthur
Scott Burden.
The testator denounced Burke-RochC
and took every ~precaution that his
daughter should at no time again live
with him. He also provided thai
neither she nor her children should
ever visit Great Britain while he lived
