Metuchen, Oct. 14:-Charging
certain members Of the New Jersey
State Executive Committee of the
Progressive party with having
"bossed' Mark o. Prentiss, of Me-
tuchen, into withdrawing as a con-
gressional candidate in the third dis
trict in favor Of Benjamin f. S.
Brown, of Matawan, the regularly
nominated candidate of the Repub-
lican, Harold T. Edgar, Charles A.
Bloomfield and other members of the
Raritan Roosevelt Club created a
sensation in the town generally and
in third party circles particularly
Saturday night by demanding the re-
call OF President Dinwiddie and the
board Of governors of nine men.
When the news came out by way
| of Newark last week that Prentiss
was out of the race and had with
! drawn in the interests Of harmony
Progressiyes here and in the county
of Middlesex Immediately went up in
the air. Bloomfield and Edgar

George l.. Record and Edmund e. Os-
borne had made a deal whereby
the Progressive party had lost and
the Republican party had gained.

CITY NOT DRY;
REPORT SALOON
DOING BUSINESS

Although more than the usual pre-
cautions were taken by liquor deal
ers yesterday it was not impossible
to purchase an Intoxicating drink
in this city yesterday. Announce
ment by the police last week that
the. lid would be pressed on tight,
.emanating from the grand jury, car
ried some weight, but nevertheless 1t
was not an alltogethere dry" Sun
day for Perth Amboy. The police
reported one screen violation which
indicated there was Sunday selling
and 1t Is evident that there was IL
legal selling on at least three of the
principal streets.
Recorder Henry w. Kehoe stated
today it was queer that with saloons
in the city closed there should be
found more drunken men than usual
seen on Sunday. He gave it as his
belief that this was either due to
the fact that SO many went to Tot
tenville to satisfy their thirst and re-
manned there until they had about all
aboard they could carry, or because
men did get to some places in this
- - where they could procure drink
and, taking no chances on not getting
enough for the day, kept drinking
until they could swallow no more.
Mr.. Kehoe says he saw several
drunken men.
There were two arrests yesterday
afternoon and one early last night
for drunkenness. John Mincer and
Steve Simko, of Woodbridge, were
taken into custody in this city when
found drunk after having run a
horse and wagon into an automobile.
Mike Selesky, forty-seVen years old,
of Ala Smith street, was arrested by
Patrolman Calvin about o'clock
last night He was found staggering
against pedestrians on Smith street
and when arraigned before Recorder
Kehoe this morning he was fined 81.
Patrolman Quinlan reported that
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-10-14

screens were not properly raised on
the Washington street side of the
saloon at the southwesterly corner
of High and Washington streets yes
terday. He saw men go in and out
of the place during the afternoon, as
to Indicate that business was being
done, but he was unable to procure
convicting evidence. He reported to
headquarters, that each time he went
to gate leading to the side OF the
premises he found 1t locked and he
could not get in. e."
! Chief of Police Burke issued an
order today that the saloonkeeper be
notified to appear in police court at
8 o'clock tomorrow morning for an
examination. He will be charged
with violation of that section OF the
excise laws pertaining to proper ex-
posure of bars in saloons, for not
raising or lowing curtains SO as to
permit view Of the bar from the
street.
Patrolmen on other beats about
the city reported bar rooms properly
exposed and the excise laws duly OBJ
served yesterday as far as they could
see.

plants about excise violations yes
terday. Up to late hour this af-
ternoon he had not conferred with
Chief of Police Burke on the subject
Rumors afloat to the -otfrevt that
the prosecutor hao squad of detec-
tives getting evidence against Sun
day sellers here yesterday caused
much anxiety among some of the
saloon keepers. The reports gained
wide circulation last night and by
this morning some dealers with SEEM

about to seek information on the sub

quarters early this morning to learn

DID NOT OBEY
BAKER IS SHOT
Escapes Death as Bullet
Chances Off q Rib.

Failure to open a window rapidly
enough to suit the desires of Jacob
and Joseph Stern almost caused
David Caplan, baker, of New York
city, to be shot to death in 8. Sterns
20. K. o." bakery at 528 Amboy
avenue last night. When the VIC
tim swore out warrants for the Stern
brothers this morning he told Re-
corder Kehoe and the police that
Joseph Stern had first hit him IN
the head with piece OF wood and
that Jacob Stern afterwards shot him
in the left side and arm. The bullet
struck one of the ribs a glancing
blow and caused painful skin
wound. 1t struck but few inches
below the heart. The elbow was
burned with powder.
Says He Had No Argument.
Caplan told the police he had no
argument with his assailants. The
reason given for the attack is that
one Of them is alleged to be addict
ed to drink and was probably drunk
when the attack was made. Chief
Burke stated he believed one Of the
drivers had permit to carry a re-
volver for self protection while cov-
ering routes early in the morning.
The story told by Caplan is that
as he was mixing dough Joseph
Stern was on the outside and called
to him to open a window. AS he did
not respond quickly enough to satis-
fy Stern, he AYERS the latter picked
up heavy piece of wood and began
to batter in the window. About the
same time Caplan was starting to
open the window and received a
blow at the left side of his forehead.
Bullet Struck Rib.
Later as he was leaning over tub
he was shot by Jacob Stern, Joseph s
brother, he claims. Upon quick ex-
animation it was thought the bullet
had entered his body just below and
a little to the left of the heart. The
police made an examination in the
court room and said the wound in
dicated the bullet had struck a rib
and glanced off. There were powder
arm.
The warrants were given to Detec-
tive Sergeant Long for service. The
case will probably be heard at 7
o'clock tonight.
Jacob Stern's defense for shooting
Caplan is that he only did so after
Caplan had attacked his brother, Jo-
seph, with pen knife, he states.
Some interesting details are expected
to be divulged at the hearing. An
effort will be made to have Jacob
Stsrns' permit to carry firearms re-
voked, II he has one.
