KEARNY PRIEST TO BE
HONORED BY PARISHIONERS.

Members of the congregation of st.
C~ecilia's r. c. Church, Kearny, intend
to call at the rectory tonight and con-
graduate the rector, the Rev. Thomas
A. Conroy, on the completion of tme
tenth anniversary of his pastorate OF
the Kearny church.
Father Conroy went to st. Cecilia
from st. Joseph's Church, this city, and
since he went icross the river things
in and around the church have been
greatly improved. After fixing up ana
identifying the church and grounds he
organized several societies, built n OF
the finest parochial schools in Hudson
county, established a home for the
Sisters of Charity and is now having a
convent made out of the old school
house n a new rectory built along
side the church.
While the church property has been
increased and made more valuable, the
debt on 1t has decreased proportion
ately and the u of the parish
grown considerably.

DEALS WITH FIRM WITH
WHICH HE is FIGHTING.
East Orange Contractor Tries to
Show There Is No Hard Feeling.

Unable to get a renewal Of the East
Orange garbage contract, Michael
Loprete, the loser, 1t is said, is going
to try hard to prevent the winners,
Myer & Myer, of this city, from enter
ing upon the work and profting
thereby. First Loprete, who is an
East Orangeite, resented the intrusion
of the Newark firm by seeking an in
junction, on the ground that Myer &
Myer could not possibly dc the job
for the figure they quoted; but the in
junction vas denied.
Failing to estop the winning con-
tractors, Loprete is to adopt other
tactics. in the hope of carrying his
point. He is applying for a writ of
certiorari to compel the East Orange
Council to show cause why the award
should not be set aside. Argument will
be heard OF the application by Chief
Justice Barker Gummere.
+, Meanwhile Loprete. while bitterly
opposed to Myer & Myer, has not de-
INJURED about selling to the latter firm
four wagons and eleven h~orse-collars,
just to show, as 1t were, that he had
no hard feeling against the Newark
contractors.

ARE
DISAPPOINTED At
CHANGE IN PLANS
"Lower-enders' Feel Sighted
Because They Are Denied
POst0ffice.

Many Kearnyites were much disap-
pointed on learning from the STAR
yesterday afternoon that the kearny
branch of the Newark postofice, which
was TO be established at Kearny and
Bergen avenue, today, is not going to
be provided by the postal authorities.
but that the Newark ~postofiee will
continue to serve that part Of Kearny
below Halsted ftreet from the Harri-
son sub-station.
Kearny citizens have long been striv-
ing to get the town name recognized in
some way. There is no telegraph. tel
ephone. express, railroad. postofice or
other station bearing the name. Ar
lington or the upper section of the
town. being favored in all those partie-
ulars to the disadvantage, as many
residents think. of the greater part of
the town.
When assurance came from Wash
ington h a Kearny. If it did not get a
postofice, would at least get a branch
station named after it, the residents
were elated. Now they are depressed
at being completely ignored. and no
hope of recognition held out to them.
They even fear a worse fate. as they
put 1t. A few years ago, when Post
master James Freeman, of Arlington,
won reappointment in the face of Bit
ter opposition, he COMPOUNDED all his
opponents by having the government
enlarge his jurisdiction. increasing the
Arlington postal territory by carrying
the southerly border south to Halsted
street, and incidentally making the
office a more remunerative one.

SHORT LINE
To BE FINISHED
IN TWO MONTHS
Railroad Officials Turned Down
in Request to Harrison
Councilman.

That the short line of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad to Saybrook place. New
ark, will be completed and ready for
operation in October vas the statement
made to Councilman John j. DAILY, of
Harrison, yesterday, by representatives
of the railroad, who called upon him
with a view of getting permission to
set in place uprights for the proposed
waiting-rooms to be located at South
Fourth street. on the route of the short
line. The construction work to the
Harrison side of the Centre street
bridge over the Passaic river is prac-
tically complete. The railroad company
is now waiting for material to finish
the new double-deck span, and the work
on the Newark side will be rushed to a
finish.
Regarding the uprights for the Har-
rison waiting-rooms, Councilman Daily,
chairman of h street committee OF
the Town Council, and empowered by
virtue of the Craftsmanship to issue
such a permit, turned dow the rail-
road representatives. The councilman
made it plain that the company would
never get his consent to proceed with
the work in question until 1t clearly
specified just what kind of service 1T
intends to give the town. Plans for the
waiting-rooms nave already been pre-
scented to the Council. and the railroad
people, in a letter to the Council. stated
that the town would be given adequate
service. The word adequate" does not
suit Mr.. DAILY. He contends that what
the railroad company might consider
adequate would not please the Council
and vice versa.
The Pennsy men promised to consult
with their superiors with a view of
having the service question settled.
Discussing the matter with a STAR re-
porter today, Mr.. DAILY said that the
present service given Harrison by the
Pennsylvania is far interior to that
given a quarter of a century ago. AT
that time the station was located at
Railroad avenue and Fourth street,
having been moved there from the DOT
of Sixth street. The Centre street
branch was then in operation. The road
was well p~atronized those days, accord
ing to Mr.. DAILY, but the traffic was
depleted when the Centre street branch
went out of existence.
