Beard Bill
Is Vetoed

TRENTON, March 27. = Governor
Wilson sent to the Legislature today
veto of the Beard bill to prevent
Montclair, Orange and other munich
palities from placing a sewage disposal
plant on the Bloomfield -Belleville line
at Soho The governor in his veto
says:
"a very careful consideration of this
bill convinces mo that it is based upon
a most unsafe and unscientific prin-
ciple. The question of sewage affects
whole regions of the State. 1t cannot
be dealt with community by COM
munity, without regard to the topog-
raphy of the country. the method and
closeness of its settlement or the
natural facilities for disposing of sew
age. Political divisions are in no sense
natural divisions when this most diff
cult matter Is to be handled. To
adopt the principle of this bill would
be to- embarrass engineering undertake
ings connected with the public health
in the most serious way and in some
instances might render them impoS-
sible."
The Governor also vetoed today the
Prout bill, Assembly No. 536. permit
ting the abandonment of the Essex
speedway, on the ground that the body
of the bill did not exactly conform to
the bill. Another veto fell on the bill
to increase the salary of Gardner Colby,
secretary and chief examiner of the
Civil Service Commission to $4,000 an
nually.

With small percentage of more than
one-third of the citizens of Nutley vot-
ing the commission form of government
plan was adopted at special election
held yesterday. AS result, Mayor
John p Lux, the three Republican and
three Democratic Councilmen, as well
as the dozen officials of the various de-
partments, may be ousted before June 1.
While it was generally believed Mayor
Lux was opposed to it, he did not par
ticipate in the campaign, and when the
result became known said: I'm per-
fectly satisfied, as long as the people
of Nutley wanted that form of govern
ment."
Although the registration prior to the
last election totaled 1,017. and the town
is believed to have between 1900 and
1,4OO voters only 699 votes were cast.
The vote in favor of the new form of
government was Az and 2S7 voted in
the negative, making the majority 125.
The primary, which will be open to

Hunt Murderer
by Photographs

The police have today sent broadcast
of SS Belmont avenue, who is wanted
here to answer to a charge of murder
ing his father-in law, Nicholas Pionko.
Ga years old, and seriously injuring his
1S-year-old bride by shooting them in
their home Monday night. No clue to
his hiding place has been discovered.
The theory that Kulick did the shoot
ing because he wanted the money
saved by his wife is being secuted by
the police. They have established, they
say, that Kulick was working man
eager to save money. and that he was
laying off work because he had been
drinking. He had gone to his home to
get some of his own savings which his
wife refused to give up, they say.
The statement of Mrs. Vasilia Sar
goff, sister of Mrs. Kulick, that there
is no money to bury her father. is not
taken seriously.
The police, when they searched the
house. found $35 in bills in a machine
drawer. They could not find a bank
book, which, it is said, was also in the
house.
Kuick came to this city four years
ago from Poland. He made a trip to
Vancouver, B. c., and returned to New
ark five months ago. He was we'll
known in the Polish settlement, where
he always seemed well supplied with
money. He was married six weeks ago
after a mere introduction to his wife
through a marriage "broker." Their
married life, it is said, was not happy.
