Jolly Crowd on Excursion
Up the Hudson Today.

Men, women and children num-
bering S55, are on the annual Bap-
tist excursion up the Hudson river
crowd which included people from
South Amboy and other places in
this vicinity, as well as from this
city, started on the steamer Sirius
at $3.50 o'clock from the New York
and New Jersey Steamboat Com
pany's dock near Smith and Front
streets. They are expected to ar
rive home about 8 o'clock tonight.
There is every indication that the
excursionists will have a most en-
joyable day. 1t is a picnic outing,
upon which refreshments may be
had and every other convenience is
furnished to the merry-makers. The
weather was ideal upon the start,
which tended to swell the attend
ance, thereby making it exception
ally large. Some of the people
coming from South Amboy were
handicapped In transit because most
trolley cars were held up by an open
draw on the Raritan river bridge
this morning. The best day possible
was chosen, so that tides would be
favorable to make good time and
that the weather might be suitable.
The number of tickets on sale was
limited to 1900. OF that number,
700 were on sale in this city and the
remaining 500 among members of
cooperating Sunday schools from
South Amboy, Metuchen, Totem
vile and other nearby places.

APPOINTMENT
NOT CONFIRMED
Hitch in Remaining District
Attorney Vreeiand.
tFrom the NEWS Correspondent.)

N'N
Trenton, July 16.-The reap
pointment of John B. Vreeland as
United States District Attorney for
New Jersey, sent to the Senate
weeks ago by United States Senator
Briggs, is still lying untouched in
the Senate Judiciary Committee at
Washington. The refusal to report
the appointment, it is understood,
Is due to the disinclination of Dis
trict Attorney Vreeland to agree to
appoint new assistants. The stu
alton has been acute for some time
and 1t Is beginning to be whispered
in state political circles that unless
Mr.. Vreeland recedes pretty soon
his name is likely to be withdrawn
and a new one set to the senate by
Senator Briggs.
1t Is said that the Department of
Justice at Washing ton was not en-
tirely satisfied With the way the
New Jersey District Attorneys Of
fee was being conducted, but was
willing to accept the disappointment
of Vreeland provided he would
agree to name new assistants. The
present assistants are Walter H.
Bacon, a friend of former Governor
E. c. Stokes, and Harrison P. Linda
bury, the law partner Of Mr.. Vree-
land. 1t ia understood that United
States Attorney General Wicker
sham would have been satisfied with
the appointment Of County Prosecu-
tor Harry s. Scovel, Of Camden, and
former Assemblyman Lloyd Thomp-
son, of Union county.
Mr.. Vreeland claims his assistants
have done good work and it would
be dishonorable for him to turn
them out of Office. Some Of the
friends Of former Judge Vreeland
charge that politics is at the bottom
of the holding up of the appoint
ment and both Bacon and Linda
burg are inclined to take this view
of the situation.
Whatever may be the real reason
for the failure to report the ap-
pointment, the outlook is that Mr..
Vreeland will lose his $4,000 a year
Job unless something Is done about
the assistants in a short time.

new METHOD OF FILING
THE ELECTION RETURNS
(From the NEWS Corrsspondent.J

Trenton, July 16.-Charles O.
Fuller, of this city, the official in
charge of the election division of
the Department Of the Secretary of
State, is just completing a new
method of filing election returns
which will make them much more
accessible and will also be a great
improvement In preserving them.
The old method of filing was to take
the sheets sen in by the county
clerks, or, in the case Of return
blanks and state returns prepared
by the Secretary of State, fold
them, put an Endorsement on the
back as to their contents and file
them away in bundles in steel filing
cases. MI. Fuller's new method is
to bind the sheets with special bind
ers into volumes and then Ale the
bound volumes In a systematic way.
Each class of returns in each cleo
ton will be bound together and in
this way all the figures Of any par
ticular set of officers in any partic-
ular election from all the counties
Will be Immediately at hand. In
other words, each volume will give
an Official birds eye view of its
part Of the election. BY having the
sheets bound fatty there will be no
danger OF wearing through at folding
points and destroying some of the
figures. All the election returns
with other valuable documents of
tho Secretary of States Depart
ment are filed In frep roof Vaults
In the basement of the State House.

Sent Strikers to Jail.

New Brunswick, July 10
Charles Levesque, a Roosevelt man,
said to be a striker, a committed
to the county Jail Saturday charged,
in the wording of the commitment
with carrying a double barrel shot
gun without a permit"
The Roosevelt authorities have
been coping with a big strike for
several weeks, and the strikers
have been pretty bold in their dis
play of weapons of various kinds,
and have been particularly indus
trious in taking shots at the search
lights which the American Agricul-
tural and Chemical Co. Is operating
on its plants.
Saturday Levesque was caught pa
rading the streets with a shot gun
and Policeman John Donovan ar
rested him, and Recorder Quinn
committed him to the county jail to
await the action of the grand jury.
The commitment, however, seems
to be plainely defective, because the
right to bear arms cannot, under
the United States Constitution, be
restricted. Concealed weapon car
rying is, of course, forbidden, but a
double barreled shot gun is hardly
a weapon that could be concealed.

night engineer at the same plant,
were held up and beaten by gangs
of strikers yesterday afternoon,
while en- route to their place of

Ger also accompanied him home.
Today all is quiet at the Liebig

on unmolested. Officers will accom-
pany the men back home tonight.
Those who went into the plant this
morning are: Thomas Devereaux,
Arthur McNulty, Alexander O'Brien,
James Fleming and Martin Switzer.
No signs of a settlement between
the factories and workmen are in
sight.
Notices have been posted at both
plants that the old men who care
to return at the former wage scale
are privileged to do so. The officials
of the plants have issued statements
that strike breakers will be imported
some time this week if the trouble
is not settled.
