er Judge Adrian Lyon, Of this city,

thusiasm of the Roosevelt forces in

ing of all persons interested in the

responsible for the invitations. -
Samuel G.. Garretson, father of Acting
Mayor Ferd. Garretson and well
known GraHy Army man, will be asked
to call the meeting to order. Mr.. Gar

Present indications are that a Roose-
velt ticket will be placed in the coun-
ty race this fall. Such action on the
part Of the "Bull Moose" party will
practically demolish the county G. 0.
P. machine, politicians assert. If such
ticket is named by the colonel's

pose Of increasing the Roosevelt total
In this district, it is said. Judge Lyon

FORMER TERRA
GOTTA RE0PENS

Plant No. 4, of the Atlantic Ter
ra Gotta Company, located at Stan
ford street and Lehigh avenue, was
opened last week after an idleness
of four years. 1t Is the companys
intention to devote the time of this
plant to experiments In interioral
terra Gotta furnishings for use, es-
pecially. in the new Hotel McAlvln,
New York city. This establishment,
when completed, will be one OF the
finest terra Gotta structures in the
world, 1t Is said. The local concern
has the contract for the entire work.
1t recently completed the exterior
and is now turning its intention to
an elaborate interioral decoration
One Of the officials Of the plant,
when called on the telephone to-
day, stated that Plant No. 4 was
opened again because of the grad
ual increase in the company's bust
ness. He declared that the plant
will employ at least one hundred
more men, in addition to the force
now at work putting the plant in
complete repairs. Three kilns have
been erected, and Will be ready for
burnings in few days, 1t is ex-
pected. The plant was shut down
four years ago because Of lack of
work, and 1t Is with a great deal OF
satisfaction, the official asserts, that
the old buildings are frightened
with activities again. The company
has reached no decision as to who
will have charge of the plant after
the repairs are completed. w. b..
LaRue has charge of the gang which
Is putting the plan in working or
der.
Interioral terra Gotta Is also man
ufactured at the other plants Of
this company, but the experiments
at Plant No. 4 will be on a more
elaborate scale. The coloring Will
not be sprayed on by air pressure In
this new work, it Is said, but ap-
piled by capable Italian artists. The
company expects to turn out the
most wonderful piece Of terra Gotta
finishing at Plant No. ever viewed
before in the terra Gotta world. The
contract for the Hotel McAlvin Is
one of the largest ever secured by
the local firm, and the officials are
exerting every effort to make the
lob worthy Of favorable comment in
the building world. The Atlantic
Terra Gotta Company now has four
plants in operation, two are in this
city, one In Tottenville, Staten ISL
and, and the other In Rocky Hill.
Plant No. 4 was formerly the sole
factory of the Standard Terra Gotta
Company, which later was purchas-
ed by the Atlantic Terra Gotta con-
Germ. The general manager OF the
standard plant, during Its existence,
was Albert Bollschweiler, now sher-
if of Middlesex county.
