CLUB WORKING HARD TO
SECURE TROLLEY GRANT.

The ordinance permitting Public
Service to lay a connecting spur along
North Park street, East Orange, join
ing the Montclair and Crosstown lines,
will come up before the City Council
tonight. Active in the efforts to secure
the grant for the corporation is the
First Ward Local Interest Club. and
it's special committee has reported to
the club the likelihood of enough sigma
lures being obtained to favor Public
Service.
Property-owners made claim at the
first hearing the street was too narrow,
and because of the many automobilists
using the street to reach Montclair con-
ditions would be worse. The pro-
t~estants believed the street should be
widened ten feet.

ANOTHER FUTILE
EFFORT MADE TO
CORRAL STETSON
Democratic Majority in Orange
Common Council Still Unable
to Settle Differences.

Seeking to straighten out the differ
ences in the Democratic majority Of
the Orange Common Council incident
to Councilman Henry T. Stetson's de-
cision to take his place in the Councli
deliberations IS an independent IN
stead of as a Democrat, the eight men
had another conference yesterday art
ernoon. MIR. Stetson started to put his
coat on when some one with a grim
sense of humor applied the term a
Gus" to the gathering and the more in
nocuou word prevailed,
The Democrats got no assurance
from the Second ward man that he
would abide by the selection of Will
lam ]. Kearney, of the Fourth ward
for assessor. and unless some contin-
sencv arises that would permit the
selection of Mr.. K%earney, which has
been ratified by seven of the eight con-
shutting the majority" there viii
probably be another fruitless session
tonight when the entire Council body
meets to resume the reorganization or
the city government.
The gathering determined upon Ma
jority Leader John c. Fineran and
Councilman Harry w. Bergman, the
latter a Republican, for the Board Of
School Estimate. Mr.. Stetson, VINO
'confers'' with his colleagues on ap-
pointnents satisfactory to himself, fig
ured as the proposer of the name of
Mr.. Bergman.
On the other matters there was the
same desultory lack of harmony. Mr..
Stetson declined to support Mr.. Kear-
ney. He has named several oppon-
ents. including Bernard r. F%ineran,
Alfred Timpson and Michael Buckley.
THE seven other Democrats have stuck
by Mr.. Kearney. and insist he shall be
one OF the three assessors. Mr.. Kear-
ney, as a matter of fact, has been de-
clared elected by President Coleman,
but Mr.. Stetnon raises the point that
eight votes are needed to elect anyone
and that Mr.. Kearney got but Z.
Mr.. Stetson himself as
ncn-committal on the selection of Dan
iel Coleman, jr.. for assistant water
clerk; on the choice of a member of
the Board OF Health to succeed Com
missioner James Kane; on the choice
of street commissioner: on the replac-
ing Of tax office clerks, Walter Patten
and Herman Willie with Democrats
and the possibility of n harmony ses-
sion tonight with the fun Council pres
ent Is as remote as ever.
