DENIES TRICKERY
BY BITULITH|C CO.

Ralph K. Hoyt, vice-president OF the
Standard Bitulithic company de-
clared today that the canvasser who
visited property-owners on various
streets which are to be paved, claim
ing at first that he represented the
pro~perty-owners and then the above
company, wal in no way connected
with his concern.
The question arose yesterday after
noon when a resident of Isabelle we
nue., who urged the pavement of that
th%oroughfare, stated that he did not
believe the remarks of another resi-
dent, who was credited with %acquaint-
ing other residents that names on the
original petition for bitulithic pave
ment were forged.
Later President Harry B.. O'Connell
took occasion to remark, SIt's the first
time, commissioners, that 1 rel heard
of Of the bitulithic company's
agents being accused of forgery, but l
will say they are too internally active
In securing signers to their petitions,
n they have misrepresented this
board and quoted lower prices than the
real cost of the pavement. I think
something should be done to stop the
practise of claiming they get private
information from the City Hall and
telling the people hat unless they
sign for bitulithic they will get no
pavement
Commissioners Charles f. Kraemer
and Patrick Fl. Ryan s~ubstantiated
what Commissioner O'Connell said, and
Commissioner Kraemer went so far as
to declare hat his colleague didn't
make it half strong enough. Il think
we ought to make it a point not to
heed any petitions in the future un-
less they come direct from the prop
erty owners" Commissioner O'Connell
made such a motion, and it was sec
onded by Commissioner Ryan and car
ried.
One c%anvasser dropped into the office
of r. H. Hull & Co. Mr.. Hull, who is
q business partner Of Mr.. Ryan, over
heard the remarks about private in
formation at the City Hall and about
men highyr up taking care of others

MUNICIPAL LIGHT
SCHEM NE HELD Up

No action was taken yesterday by
the Board of Works on h municipal
lighting plant. 1t was deferred until
Wednesday, when a special meeting of
the board will be held. If the plan
goes through the city will make it
own electricity by neal OF a garbage
disposal plant. In that event thou
sands OF dollars will be saved annually
and the streets, parks and public build
ings will be lighted without asking for
an annual appropriation Of $3.50, 600, as
was the case last year. At the present
time the city pays $40 annually for
each arc light in the city.
The plan is to erect garbage dis
posal plants in the various sections OF
the city and by it's destruction gem
crate electricity. In that way more
thar enough will be secured to not
only light the city, but sell to manu-
facturers as well IL it were permissi-
BILE.
The issue is one of the pet ones OF
Commissioner Charles F. Kraemer. one
of the minority members of the board.
The municipal lighting plant ques-
ton has been advanced time and again
by the Democratic members of the
Common Council and Board of Works.
The system is used in many of the
biggest cities in the East n West.
BY the request of property-owners
on Bowery street and Isabelle avenue
the question of paving Yves laid over
for a week, as was the decision of shar-
ing in the expense of a sewer in the
Manhattan Park section.

F%REEHOLDERS BOTHERED
BY TWO BABIES IN JAIL,


The fact that there are two babes,
n 3 months and the other II months
old, in the Essex County Penitentiary,
in Caldwell, is bothering the prison
committee of the Boar Of Freehold
ers. One of the babes was born in the
institution after its mother had been
received there. while the other, the
older one, went there with its mother
about a year ago.
Warden Samuel c.. Martin has made
repeated effort to get some Of the chill
dren's aid societies to take care of the
children pending the release of the
mothers, but owing to tender ages Of
the infants has been unsuccessful. The
father of the elder child is steadily
employed and is in a position to take
are of the child outside of the prison.
Steps Will be taken to compel him to
do so.

CASE AGAINST ARMY
OFFICERS DISMISSED
II Is Believed Arrests of Sol
diers at Douglas Was for
Moral Influence

After all OF the fuss and the seath-
ers and the hue and the cry attending
the arrest Of Lieutenants Holderness
and Howard. OF the Ninth cavalry,
and Mexican Consul Cuesta, on the
charge OF trespassing and assault with
a deadly weapon when the Hotel Mex
ieano, at Douglas, was searched, the
case has been dismissed The action
was taken by motion of County At
tOrney Gilmore.
While ii is said that, the attorneys
representing the case prepared to
show that the order for the search
came from the war department at
washington, no evidence was intro
daced. Thus ends case that at one
time threatened the peaceable rela-
tions between officials of the state
of Arizona and th United States.
Arrests for Moral Influence
Soon after the search OF the hotel
the Review printed the governments
side Of the matter, in the form OF an
interview with United States Attorney
Morrison and several days later Sher
Id Wheeler came back, giving his side
OF the case and intimating that the
attorney had made conciliatory ter
mination OF the cases impossible. Il
was generally believed here, however,
that the arrests were made for the
moral effect and the dismissal OF the
cases was not a surprise.
One Of the attorneys representing
the hotel owner has issued a state
ment at Douglas which the newspaper
it headed as hot roast"
at the county attorney. The
statement also said that United States
attorney J. +. Morrison refused Ia
open court to apologize" for the yio-
lation of the constitution of the Unit, |
ed States BY the army officers.
