PROSECUTOR
HAS HAD MEN
AT WORK HERE
For Several Sundays Past De-
tsctiyes Have Been Sacur-
inq Evidence of Violations.
FOUND THE CITY BETTER
THAN HERETOFORE

There seems to- have been more
reason for the dry" here last Sum
day than at first supposed The
EVENING NEWS learned today that
Prosecutor Booraem has had detee-
tives at work in this city for the past
three Sundays and while he has
gained some evidence of excise viola
tions he found the city In much bet
ter condition than on previous occa-
sions. The evidence obtained win
be presented to the grand jury and
1t is likely that some more indict-
ments of local liquor dealers will be
found.
In a conversation with the prose-
cutor over the telephone today, he
admitted that be had had detectives
at work in this city for several weeks
past. He said he had obtained all
the evidence he wants for the pres
ent and now does not care who
knows of the presence of the detec-
tives.
Just what evidence was secured
by the detectives in this city the
prosecutor naturally refused to say.
He is satisfied with the outcome,
however, and wants 1t understood
that he Ia on the Job all the time and
means to see that the county is kept
as clean as possible as long as he
holds Office.

While at Large Yesterday
Nan Wanted on Charges
Commits Assault.
NOW SOUGHT BY POLICE
--CHiEt'S ORDERS

Despite the fact that nearly twenty
eight hours have elapsed since a
warrant was sworn out for the ar
rest OF Hugh McArdle, better known
as Tex" he is still at large. The
warrant was sworn out for his arrest
yesterday morning for an attempted
assault upon an EVENING NEWS
reporter. Yesterday afternoon, at
ter spending the whole day in the
vicinity Of High and Smith streets,
he made an assault on the scribe
shortly after s o'clock and then dis
appeared down High street.
Last night Chief OF Police Burke
notified the officers as they went out
on their posts at 7eS 'elock that a
warrant was out for McArdle. It
was reported that hieArdie was seen
last night around II O'clock in the
upper portion of the city. 1t was
also reported that he was seen In
Jefferson street this morning.
Whether he 10 preparing for further
assaults or for leaving this portion
of the country for good is more or
less of mystery. The fact remains,
however, that he is still at large.
lust why McArdle was permitted
W A0u"iu at 'tdA &c hAlcI WdiIaDs
had been issued for his arrest re-
mains a mystery to great many.
This Is especially so as he spent most
OF yesterday on the main street OF
the city where he could easily have
been picked up IL there had been any
effort on the part OF the authorities
to apprehend him. 1t has been COM
mented upon that in other instances
where warrant has been issued for
a person, he has been picked up at
once and either locked up or placed
under bonds. The fact that the fel.
low WAS not only not arrested, but
was permitted to make the assault
even after a warrant had been issued
for his arrest is looked upon by
some as significant. Further he was
permitted to escape even after the
assault although 1t was then gener-
ally known that he was wanted by
the authorities.
Several persons have remarked to-
day as to what kind of authority
there Is In this city, and what we
are coming to. 1t remains to be
seen when McArdle Ia picked up and
how far the case will go. Aa far az

vETOES SENT
BY GOVERNOR
(speeIal Correapondenee. J

Trenton, March 21:-In the House
last night the only official business
transacted was the receipt of the
two vetoes of bills by Governor VIII
'son, and the appointment of COM
mittee to take further action on the
death of the late Assemblyman Al
yea. When this had been done. a
motion was carried TO adjourn IN
honor of the memory of Mr.. Alyea
One of the bills vetoed by the gov
ernor was that Increasing the pay
Of the Newark firemen after the
proposition had been voted upon by
the people. The executive assigned
as one reason for his act that the A.
nance committee OF Newark had no
option in the matter of the salary
advance. Since this committee is
held responsible for the distribution
of the money, 1t was held that It
should have some say in the action.
As rule, governors have signed
measures that carried a referendum.
The other bill which the governor
failed to approve was that fixing the
salary of the mayors clerk In first
class cities to not exceed $1,000. AS
this was in the form Of special legis-
lation, Il was vetoed.

WILSON BREAKS
INTERCOURSE
WITH NUGENT
IMPROVEMENT
OF FIRE DEPT.
Chief Sets Forth Recommsn-
dations in Letter.

Fire Chief Theodore Anderson
made number OF valuable recon-
mendations to the Board OF Alder
men last night in the form OF a COM
munication His suggestions apply
to the better handling of fire appar-
atus and additional equipment for
the department. His communication
to the Board of Aldermen, which
was referred to the fire committee,
is as follows:
The Chiefs Letter,
To the Honorable Mayor and Board
OF Aldermen of the City OF Perth
Atnboy, N. j.
Gentlemen:
While you are busy improving the
fire department in our city, have a
few recommendation to make which
are very important and would be a
great improvement to the depart
ment.
In the first place ! suggest rubber
tires for the following apparatus:
Lincoln hose wagon, Washington
hose and chemical wagon. Mcclellan
engine and Eagle hose and chemical
wagon.
BY having rubber tires accidents
WYNN Uc dfOIuC0y sum us hdfC pOOh
already experienced on State street
when the Lincoln engine upset In
skidding along the trolley tracks
Another time wheel On Washing
ton hose wagon turned inside out
which might have resulted In serious
Injuries Or loss of life.
Wagon for McCIellans.
] also suggest rubber tired COM
bination hose and chemical wagon
for Mcclellan Engine Company. AS
you know, that part of the city is
without chemical apparatus which
can often be used In case OF small
fires where water would do more
damage than the fire. The present
hose carriage used by the Mcclellan
Engine Company could be used as q
reserve hose carriage, which Is nee
essary, as we have already had fires
where more hose than was on hand
was needed, and had to be taken
from a tower, which takes lot ol
time.
I also call your attention to the
need OF purchasing new set OF har.
ness for Protection Hook s. Ladder
Company. The set now In use needs
repairs badly IT n new set was pur
chased the present set could be fxec
up and kept in reserve.
Head Protectors Needed.
Another improvement needed ia 6
Peerless automatic head protector
which Is an apparatus which covers
the head and protects firemer
against smoke and flames. The pre-.
vention OF FIRE losses would soon pay
1 for extra apparatus and in some
cases S. the aaaans OK saving thou.
sands OF dollars, to say nothing OF
the saving of life.
Paint Boxes and Hydrants.
I also cafl your attention to the
FIRE alarm boxes and hydrants oil
they are very badly In need of paint
which Ii attended TO would be &
credit to the city.
BY making the above mentioned
improvements along with the new
apparatus and supplies already or.
dered, including the new truck, with
the present apparatus now In use
Perth Amboy would have one of the
best fire departments In the state
providing that men are put In the
houses to take care of the apparatus
