Food "Simply Detesta ble."

At the fort Of the Alto de Duque there
are 139 prisoners. distributed among
fourteen cells. all Of which are below the
level Of the ground. and are very damp
There is barely one WORKOUT blanket to
each straw mattress, and the food Is
described as simply detestable. There
are insufficient light and air, the cleaning
Of the cells is left to the prisoners to do

A political prisoner. who had six
months in the Limoeiro prison. writes
that in the dungeons more than a hun

No Respect for Religion.

Religious beliefs of prisoners are never
respected. neither priests nor prisoiers be-
ing allowed to hear mass. One of the
captives. in writing to his brother, used
the expression, Il am we'll in health
thank Ged!' and the inspecting officer
informed him that. though it would be
allowed to pass for once, the name of God
must never again be used even in private
correspondence. The spirit of these unfOr-
Inmates has not. however, been altogether
crushed, for when this order was made
known the hymn, "Quaeremus Deum,"
was sung by the assembled prisoners.
The republican soldiery have treated the
royalists with the utmost brutality. In

fishing station near Lisbon. are slightly
better. but the cells are often under
water. Although there are good kitchens
at the fort, they are not used. and the
food, which Is sent from Lisbon, con-
stantly arrives in filthy state-full of
hairs and insects. In rough weather the
provision boat cannot cross the water,
and there Is nothing to eat. There Is no
sanitary accommodation whatever, and
the cells are cleaned out only twice day
and swept once. The hospital Is not
used, and there Is no doctor at Trafaria,
but rheumatism, bronchitis and skin dis
eases are among the results produced by
the confinement In the fort, which now
holds some seventy Portuguese royalists.

IN PLAIN
CLOTHES PAY

1t was announced today at the offices
of the Public Service Railway Com
pany that non-uniformed members of
the police department will not be al
lowed passes to ride on trolley cars,
although a bill giving them this PRIV
ilege was passed by the 1912 Legisla-
ture. The "plainclothesmen'' lobbied
hard for the passage of that bill, and
it is expected that they will not give
up the fight to obtain free ~transporta-
ton. which they claim they are en-
titled to the same as the uniformed
police.
President Thomas N. McCarter, of
the Public Service Corporation. re-
ceived a delegation of local detective
lieutenants from police Headquarters
recently and promised them that the
matter would be brought up by him
again at the next meeting of Public
Service directors. The meeting was
held yesterday afternoon.
1t was then decided by the corpora
ton officials to follow the advice of
their counsel and regard the plain
clothes pass BILL as unconstitutional.
The company's attorneys claim the
aw is void because 1t declares superb
lively that the trolley companies
SHALL give the required passes. It is
contended by Public Service that the
Legislature has no right to order the
company to give any service without
compensation. and the bill is therefore
unconstitutional.
Just what action the plainclothes
members will take could not be ascer-
tanned today. 1t is said that Detective
Lieutenant James Meehan, of local pe-
lice headquarters. who has been very
active in having the bill passed and is
recognized as the Newark sponsor ofthe
plainclothes squad, will not be content
to let the matter rest with the trolley
company. Incidentally, 1t is rumored
that the person who framed the bill
for the plainclothes members is not re-
oeiving a vote of thanks.

Montclair Labor
Strike Is Broken

The labor strike in Montclair ended
last night. when the strikers decided
that any man who wanted to work
could do so on the best terms he could
make. Union headquarters at 121h
Walnut street is still being kept open
but it Is believed that by next Monday
all the men will again be at work. Up
untf the time that Policeman George
Cousins was attacked by the strikers
they had the sympathy of many peo-
pie and several town officials.
Policeman Cousins Is recovering in
Mountainside Hospital, but It is feared
It will be a long time before he again
reports for duty. Chief Gallagher is
being congratulated for the manner in
which he handled the strikers. The
sherif's deputies will remain in Mont
clair until all danger is past. Osborn
& Marsellus Co., 'quarrymen at Upper
Montclair, have a full force Of men at
work today. They will not take back
the strikers. unless they need men.
F. W. Gibbs Contracting Company
have also a full force at work.

SAYS $500 PAYMENT
ON MORTGAGE INVALID.

Stating that there vas no evidence
Of agency and that authority to collect
interest Ices not include authority to
collect principal, vice-Chancellor How
ell in an opinion handed down yester-
day allowed proceedings to foreclose a
mortgage held by william Koch, as
Johnson avenue, and made out by
Donate Scarpone, a saloon-keeper, at
212 Academy street.
Scarpone made out the mortgage for
$500 to the late Charles A. Feick, and
according to the testimony In the case
the Feick Office collected $500 of the
principal after the mortgage had been
made over to Koch.
I'm order to show agency" said the
vice-chancellor, che must show right
full possession. I must conclude that
the payment made by Scarpone was
invalid since the mortgage was not
held in the Feick office"
This case Is one of several that have
been brought to the attention of the
courts. and there are other suits pend
ing decision that involve the Feick
transactions and that are of a similar
nature to the one Just decided by Vice.
