Expiring Job Is
Sought by Many

ELIZABETH, Dec. 2I.-When the APP
pointment of "a morgue-keeper to sue
coed John j. Engel comes before Judge
Edward S. Atwater next February he
will no doubt be confronted with a
problem similar to the one he had to
solve three years e when the pres
ent incumbent was appointed. There
are already several candidates for the
position.
1t is not believed that Mr., Engel will
again be a candidate because of the
censure and criticism that have been
his portion for months. He was be-
fore the Board of Freeholders recently
to explain the charge that he gave in
decent burial 10 Mrs. Anna Best. who
was inferred in potter's field without
any notification being given to her
relatives in Railway.
1t was alleged that the morgue-
keeper buried Mrs. Best in a pine box
that was too small for the body. and
as o result he was compelled to re-
duce his charges FOR county burials and
agree to furnish proper Baskets for
burials.

BLOOMFIELD CARD PLAYERS

There was a fire scare in Glenwood
avenue, in the business section of
Bloomfield, last night, when sparks
were seen flying around the rooms oc-
cupied by William Katowski, in the
centre of the block. Philip Biase burst
open the doc leading to Katowski's
apartments, while someone else ran to
turn in an alarm from box S6. At least
500 people gathered at the scene and
there was much excitement.
When Biase got into Katowski's room
he found the latter building a wood
fire in a CRATE upon which he had
poured a bucket of coal too soon.
Sparks and dense smoke resulted, and
it looked like a bad blaze from the
street. No one was injured, but sew
eral pinochle games of Importance then

"There are too many cars on Market
and Broad streets at present. We can
take off some of them in this way
Extend the Kinney line and you do
away with one line on Market street.
The Central and orange cars can com
down over the canal bed, a number of
the Broad street cars can be run over
Washington street as soon as you make
the extensions between the library and
Central avenue, and Kinney street and
clinton avenue. Think of the relief

1.-THE Paterson and Bloomfield carr
could be run down through another
street as conveniently as they now run
down Market street to the station"
Mr.. Book also urged that the station
of the Pennsylvania short line be
brought to the apex of Military Park.
He declared HAT this was possible
without injuring the park in any way.
Speaking of the general subway ques-
ton Mr.. Book said: with the develop
ment of Newark in the next few years,
by the building of the proposed ship
canal, and the general meadow recla-
nation project, Newark will grow
wonderfully. We must. therefore, con-

not routed as well as they might be
now. and hat we ought to make an

off this street, but as yet I see no need
for a subway on Broad street"

evil effects of some forty thousand
cort loads of refuse accumulated since

friends has kept professional strike
breakers from accepting the high
wage sthe city offered for substitutes
and a dread of the teamsters union
has prevented contractors from bid
ding to perform the work. The
health department intervened today
when it QUE several hundred bar
rels of disinfectant to sprinkle on the
