When the trial of A. A. Truskett,
charged with killing ]. D. S. Neely,

competent jurors. Several days prob

Informs Civil Service
Commissioners.
Especial to the Newark start

TRENTON, June AT the meeting
of the civil service commission today
they were advised by the attorney
generals department that the question
of the acceptance of petitions for the
examinations for election officers was
not directory and therefore they would
be within their rights to allow persons
to correct errors in petitions in cases
where the person signing the same was
mislead through the official acts of 9th
ers.
The question was raised by the error
discovered in the city of Newark when
Common Council. in dividing the city
into election districts so as to come
within the provisions of the law, erred
using an old map. The plan of redis-
tricting led citizens in several in
stances to file petitions in accordance
with the redistricting as published in
the parers.
Now that the error has been discov-
cred and the Newark Common Council
will call a special meeting tonight to
change the lines, it will follow that a
great number of petitions will be de-
~fective. in that the applicant will find
himself in a district other than the one
set out in his petition. In cases of this
kind the applicant will be allowed to
make correction and will be permitted
to AXE the examination.
The commission today announced that
all petitions bearing a postmark before
midnight tonight will be considered as
having been received at the office to-
day.

MANY SEEKING
APPOINTMENTS
FOR ELECTION
Seven Thousand Places to Be
Filled Under Geran
Law. "
Especial to the Newark st.r.l

TRENTON, June 1.-Applications for
the position of election officer under
the Geran law are being received in
large patches at the office of the Civil
Service Commission today. But 1t is
a noticeable fact that outside of the
petitions filed by the progressive Re
publican organizations of Essex. Hud-
son and Passaic counties. there are
few applications from sources outside
the regular Republican and Democratic
organizations.
The number of election officers to be
appointed is close to 1000, four for every
election district in the State. In some
of the counties of the State the party
chairmen had considered the plan of
making no recommendations whatever
to the Civil Service Board, but to let
the appointment be made by the county
Judge, as he would have to do in case
there were no applications for the Jobs
and nobody had aiken the examina-
lions. This method would have had
little difficulties in counties where the
organizations are not divided Into fac
tons. M
While 1000 election officers are to be
appointed, the number of applications
should be far in excess of that, as
county chairmen may nominate as
many candidates for each place as they
choose and every five citizens In any
district may make on recommendation
to the board.
All persons recommended to the Civil
Service Board must pass an examine
ton to be set by that body. The ex-
aminations will begin next week, the
first ones to be held in Somerset
county.

CHARGED
AGAINST LOUIS
AND IDA S0BEl
Husband and Wife Held in ST.
900 Bonds for the
Grand Jury.

Charged with causing the fire in his
store, 1879 Springfield avenue. Louis So
bel, owner of the shoe store at h a
place, and his wife were today ar
raigned at the Fourth Precinct Police
Court and held In $4,000 bail each for
the action of the grand jury.
Mrs. Sobel was paroled on her W
recognizance. The fire was discovered
in the second floor of the building on
the morning of Wednesday. May "a
last. and caused about 5000 damage.
Various things about the fire caused
the bureau of combustibIes to become
suspicious, a d they started an inves-
tigation, which finally resulted in the
arrest of Sobel and his wife, Ida, both
of whom, live at 124 Johnson avenue
Martin j. Hoppe. inspector of the
combustible department, made the for
NAL complaint this morning. When
asked about 1t, he would say nothing
further than that he had sufficient evil
dence to Justify the department in the
action they took in the matter.
Sobel. when approached about the
matter, said that he was surprised at
the action taken by the authorities.
He says Thai he was not at home that
day. having been in Brooklyn all day.
Asked by a representative of the STAR
whether he always o e to Brooklyn
on that day he answered that he goes
to New York every Wednesday. but
that he went to Brooklyn that Tuesday
on private business" He came home
about l o'clock that night, and after he
had been in bed about an hour he was
called out of bed and told thai his store
was on fire.
The two clerks who were held as ma
terial witnesses in the case closed the
store about 10 o'clock that night, about
two and a half hours before the fire
broke out. According to the statement
made by Mr.. Sobel. his wife was the
last person in the store that night. He,
himself, he says. could not possibly
have had any connection with the fire,
as he was away all that day.
All inquiries at the Bureau of Com
bustibles and the police Of the Fourth
Precinct, who, at the instigation of
Captain Gasser. had a couple of men
out on the case, failed to discover the
evidence they had against Sobel. Up
till about two months ago the store
went under the name of Sobel & Rosen-
baum. For some reason. which could
not be learned, they dissolved part
nership at that time. since when Sobel
has conducted the store alone.
