OTTAWA, Sept 21.-Betting in favor

polls was a striking feature of the
election today
The election is held TO choose repre-
sentatives in the House of Commons
of the Canadian parliament If a ma
jority of hese be of the party called
the Liberals, Premier Laurier will re-
main in the office he has held since
1896, and ne reciprocity treaty will be

If the complexion of the House of
Commons be Conservative, r. L. Bor-
den, leader o. that party, will be in
vited by the Encouragement to form
mini Try a5 successor to Laurier. If
the majority be Conservatives and Ma
tionals, party which has grown up
among citizens of French descent, who
are opposed to British Imperialism, a
coalition ministry will be formed with
Borden at it's head.
The betting in Montreal last night
covered a wide range of odds. with
Liberal money most in evidence. A
local paper records a bet of $4,000 TO
LOCO that the government will be re-
turned. Considerable money was placed
at the leading hotels on even money.
A well-known brokerage firm posted
notice of $4,000 to bet on the gov
ernment's return at various odds,
based on the size of the majority. Its
office was besieged by men anxious to
bet many of whom were turned away

the murder, but that 1t was hardly
probable that the young man had com
mitted the crime because of his appar-
ent lack of mental ability to grasp the
situation.
Isaac Weiss, when questioned by
Judge Herr, in the Fourth Precinct
Court today, told a number of con
ficting stories and once was forced to
admit that he had been lying to the
judge. The prisoner said that he had
no home. His first story was that he
came from New York to Newark Tues
day.
'I came over on the Twenty-t third
street ferry" he said. IT got a wagon
to give me a lift to this here place |
wanted to go to Waverly avenue"
"Why?" Judge Herr asked.
Weiss apparently could not give any
reason for wanting to get to Waverly
avenue. He stammered and his re-.
plies were inooherent.
Continuing his story. he said that he
asked a policeman to help him out
The officer gave him five cents, he said,
and put him ON Bloomfield car
IT got off the. car at Hunterdon
street." he said.
When it was pointed out to him that
the Bloomfield avenue car did not pass
Hunterdon street he became confused
again.
He took refuge in explaining that his
father was dead. but said that there
was home TO which he could go in
Waverly avenue.
"But there is no home of any kind
in Waveriy avenue Judge Herr in
terrupted
Again the man stammered
His next story was that he had come
from New York yesterday. first taking
the Pennsylvania ferry. At Jersey City
he had met a friend who had some
money. With this friend he came to
Newark on the trolley. The man with
him went into a saloon, and when he
came out was intoxicated.
Judge Herr charged him with lying.

Wants TO Assess $23,.

TO SUE PUBLIC SERVICE
FOR NEARLY $I,OOO,OOO
VIII Bring Action Under City's
Ordinance Claiming 5 Per

Tvs important cases are to be fought

The law department of the city will
amend the papers in its suit against
sthe Public Service Corporation on ac-
tcount of money claimed to be due the
municipality under the per cent.
eordinance so as to ask for a sum close
ITO $1,0o0,0o0. instead of the 100000 that
St has hitherto been trying to collect.
The dispute over the amount due the
city under the per cent, ordinance is
"a long-standtng one. The city has
claimed that 1t was not getting from
public Service all that was coming to
1t under that law. The sum of 100000
was arbitrarily fixed upon as the
.Amount to seek so as to establish the
principle that the city was contending
for.
Recently Frank Bergen, general
counsel of the Public Service,
asked for bill of particu-
lars When the law department
began to compile the necessary data
for the Public Service it was found
that the city, according to its method
of computation, was entitled to sue for
100000 or thereabouts.
When the various lines that now
form the Public Service Corporation re-
ceived franchises from the city for an
electric railway system in Newark the
city exacted compensation of 5 per
cent. of the gross receipts on traffic
within the city. The Public Service has
paid this sum annually under what is
lnown as the track mileage system;
that is, the payment of an amount for
the city on the basis of the length of
the line with the city limits.
The city has claimed that 1t is en-
titled TO compensation on the basis of
purely local traffic on those lines that
are partly within and partly without
the city. Thus the city says that If a
line is partly within and party with
out and II by far the greater part of
the traffic is within the city, it is not
equitable TO compute the city's com
pensation on the length of the line
within the city. especially when the
part of that line outside the city is by
far the longer.

Predicts Higher Rates If
Insurgents Continue
Their Methods.
MAINTAINS THAT THEY
USED 'BLACKSMITH'S TOOLS
Opposed to Revision of Tariff
Except Under Facts
from Board.

GRAND RAPIDS. Mich, Sept. 21.-
President Taft made the first speech
of his western trip on the tariff and
his vetoes of the wool, cotton and far
mers' free list bills here today. The
President attacked the Democrats and
insurgent' Republicans in the Senate
and House who put those bills through
Congress at the special session. de-
Tended his own course in vetoing them
and declared that he was unalterably
opposed to revision of the tariff except
upon information secured by the tariff
board.
He defined clearly his own position
with regard tariff revision, and made
il plain that even If political defeat
stared him in the face he would not
alter his policy. The President pre-
dicted that revising the tariff with
"blacksmiths' tools such as he said
the coalition of Democrats and In
surgents" used will lead inevitably to
a revulsion of feeling and recurrence
of the higher rates and the "old sys-
tenn of high tariff"

PAT GROVE LANDS

CHICAGO, Sept. 21.-Pat Grove, some
time kidnaper, sometime preacher of

in Wells street. He was angered be-
cause the woman resented his attempt

men who did not sympathize with his
"strog-arm Irritation" was taken to

Frank Bergen, general counsel Of the
Public Service Corporation, today de.
clared that he had not received any
notice from the Utility Board to ap-
pear in Trenton next Tuesday.
The erroneous opinion OF many per-
sons who imagine that the present
transfer fight being conducted by the
city officials is for the purpose OF OBJ
tanning a transfer on a transfer, which
would enable a passenger to ride all
day long, was outlined by Inspector
Crawford.
Some people imagine that If we win
our point they could be retransfered on
a dozen different lines," said Inspector
Crawford THAT is not So We have
no intention of giving a person the
right to get on Broad street car, for
instance and transfer to a Bergen
car, then a retransfer to the Kinney line
and another to the Central line; that
idea is very erroneous"
What we do want is to secure for
the patrons of the Public Service troll
ley lines here the privilege of q re-
transfer which will enable them to get
to their ultimate destination by the
shortest direct route. The South Or
ange avenue ana orange street lines
furnish a good example of what
mean. Take passenger boarding q
car at Roseville avenue and Orange
street with South Orange avenue and
South Eighth street as his destination
He pays his fare and secures a trans
fer. This he uses on the Bergen rect
line at Orange street and proceeds
south on Bergen street. At South Dr.
ange avenue he is entitled to o re-
transfer under the Public Utility
Boards order. but the company refuses
this.
IF the passenger did obtain this re-
transfer at South Orange avenue and
Bergen street, which we claim he
should get. look at the saving IN time
for him. He would not have to r axe
that long detour down Orange street 30
the -Four Corners and then tranfier
20 the South Orangs ave1ue line and
come was back UP again
But we do not want people to be-
ueve we are fighting for transfers that
will enable them to ride all over town,
using.a dozen different Tines. all for one
fare"

Pumps Sandy Flood on Stubborn
"Squatters."

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 21,-In order to
remove "squatters" from the land on
the Missouri river here owned by the
Missouri Pacific Railroad Company, a
plan to drown them out with sand and
water has been adopted.
The "squatters," who have lived for
years along the river. refused to move
when ordered to do so, and several
threatened to shoot the first man who
should attempt to destroy their homes
The company then began pumping from
the river large quantities of sand and
water, which poured over the disputed
land. Some of the "squatters" are pre-
pairing to raise their house on stills,
but eventually all will have to move.
