cal, and Accused Is Held
Without Bail.

Nicholas Kline, of 305 Washington
street, was today identified at the City
Hospital by John Briody, of 15 Ferry
street, as the man who stabbed him
four times during an alteration in a
Market street cafe last night. What
the trouble started over is a mystery,
but it is asserted that Kline was as
saulted by some unknown man and
that Briody in acting as peacemaker
was attacked.
The police declare that Kline had
been drinking with friends, and when
they went to the front Of the cafe he
got into trouble in the rear. Briody
did not at first realize that he had been
cut and not until the blood trickled
did he become cognizant of his condi-
tion. At the hospital 1t was declared
that the condition of the man is Sc
rious.
Kline was held without bail by Judge
Hahn in the First Criminal Court
James M. MeDermit, counsel for Kline
made q plea for an immediate exami-
nation, but this was denied and the
examination was set for next Saturday
The court declared that If the mans
condition were improved by tomorrow
he would fix bail.
Carl r. Tabbard, of Al Union avenue,
Belleville, who also received a slight
wound on the face, was paroled in
$100 bail to appear as witness Plain
clothesmen King and O'Gara made the
arrest.

Imagination to attempt to picture an
ideal Santa Claus after the weather
Newark has been treated to during
the last week, the weather man prom
ises upon his oath that 1t will be
bright some time next week. 1t will
either rain or snow tomorrow.
After this happy prediction the prom
ise of bright weather next week may or
may not be so. From the cold and
cheerless drizzle of today, no one would
be apt to take a very hopeful view of
anything, let alone the weather.
But Newark has hopes, and that's
something.
