avenue when the accident uce.ssr s.,.isssi 60
AS they saw the gates were Up they
did not hesitate to drive over the
crossing. Mesky had almost succeed
ed in crossing and his fellow driver
was about to cross when Pennsylya7
MIA train No. 227, due at the Central
station at 603 o'clock, bore down on
them The engine rammed the rear
portion of the new wagon in which
Mesky was seated and smashed it to
splinters. The driver was hurled to
the pavement and stunned.
Seeing what had occurred, Hans
Jensen, of 292 Market street, the
gatetender, lowered the easterly
gates to head off the other driver. A
gate struck the horses backs and
they were stopped. The gatetender
reported the details of the accident
to Patrolman Rymarczyk. When the
officer asked him why he did not
have the gates down when train
was passing, Jensen said he had not
noticed the train.

MILLIONAIRE
LABORS HERE
Young GuggenheIm Learning
Business at Local Plant.

Although Edmond A. Guggenheim,
son of Isaac Guggenheim, millionaire
smelling magnate, has been at the
local plant of the American Smelling
& Refining Company for more than
two months, rubbing elbows with
toilers in overalls while in an effort
to start at the bottom of the ladder
to learn the smelling business, it has
Just become generally known. Young
Guggenheim commutes daily between
here and Elizabeth. While learning
the handling and smelling of ores,
he acts as sort Of assistant foreman
in various gangs, 1t was stated at the
works this afternoon. He often
handles metals himself to study their
composition and methods of operat
ing and processes through which they
must pass in smelling and refining.
His father placed him in the works
to learn the business from the ground
up and he is certainly doing it right
it was stated at the works this after
noon. He lives with his wife and
child at No. 60 North avenue, Eliza
beth. He is twentyfour years old.
They pack us in like sardines," says
young Guggenheim, referring to local
trolley conditions. 81 like the Eliza
beth firemen, though; they're q socia-

In the Guggenheim Baltimore
plant he worked daily in overalls n
short time after he was graduated
from Yale. Guggenheim is extreme

STATE LAW PREVENTS
FILLING THE VACANCY

though he did not care what way
excise affairs went, now that the big
work had been broken down, but he
afterward said he would try to work
out Civic Union principles and do the
best he could. He said q revelation
had been planned whereby people 8
eyes would have been opened to
clean excise conditions, but now, he
had fallen and conditions would re-
main just as they are.
Commissioners-elec Seaman,
Boehm, Gallagher and Hanson held
a meeting at city hall last night.
They discussed at length Mr.. Germs
action in leaving the city. General
indications were that the four mem
bers would work in harmony, ac-
cording to the statements OF one of
the commissioners-ele today. 1t
has been stated and the head Of the
Civic Union has been told that Mr..
Gallagher does not stand for the
same measure of reform that the
Civic Union members do. The same
is said of Mr.. Hanson.
The two Civic Union members are
united upon carrying out Civic Union
principles as far as possible. They
intend to reduce the number of sa-
looms the coming year, but not too
great, Mr.. Seaman stated this after
noon. Mr.. Boehm stated in regard
to last nights meeting, that while
the members regret the loss of Mr..
Germs, the board stands to a man for
everything that is good in excise af-
fairs and will insist on the obserV
ance of laws by saloonkeepers.

In addition to accepting the Of
fer of the Riparian Commission to
purchase the ends of Washington,
Commerce and Fayette streets, the
council intends to adopt resolutions
Monday night to apply for riparian
rights to the southerly end of High
street. Acting upon the sugges-
ton of Acting Mayor Garretson, the
Board of Aldermen took preliminary
steps at it's committee meeting last
night to apply for the rights. The
city's chief executive expressed it as
his contention that the end of High
street should be applied for at this
time, inasmuch as delay, such as had
been met with In previous cases,
might occur. He maintained the
street was wide, ended at the mouth
of the Raritan river overlooking Rar-
itan bay, and If used for no other
purpose, might some day in the near
/ future be used for a recreation
place.
| Resolutions are to be adopted at
the regular meeting of the council
Monday night to accept the offer to
pay $40 lineal foot for the riparian
| land at the easterly ends of Wash

streets. Action In purchasing similar

be deferred, pending investigation of
records, because the state can only
make grant to the city, subject to
existing rights. 1t is not known what
the existing rights are. 1t is stated
that half of the rights for the street
end were once decided to one Arthur
Buel and later transferred to the
Holland Company, being now used by
the Public Service.
Steps were taken last night to
press condemnation proceedings for
extending Convery Place across the
Lehigh Valley railroad tracks
through land of the G. Pardee works.
1t was proposed to take action Mon
day night to have three commission
ers named to adjust the opening of
the thoroughfare through the Pardee
property.
The police committee did not re-
port on the charge against Patrol
man Israel Weitzen, that he neglect
ed to send in calls regularly. 1t was

Despite opinions to the contrary,
the excise board-elect must carry on
its york with but four members be-
cause Harry M. Germs will leave the
city In two weeks, according to City
Attorney G. c. Hommann. He says
there is no law permitting the ap-
pointment OF a man in Mr.. Germs
place. Neither will the law permit
choose a fifth member of the excise
board and an alderman at-large, says
the city attorney.
At city hall 1t was stated that the
charter of the city provided for ap-
pointment of officers to fill vacancies
except for mayor and alderman. Mr..
Hommann declares the charter is
superseded by state laws, and, fur
thermore, there was no excise board
when the charter was drafted,
licenses at that time being granted
by the common council.
After making reference to the elec-
tion laws and general statute books,
the city attorney announced to a
NEWS representative that the laws
of 1901 gave the answer. They pro-
vide that all vacancies in elective
offices shall be filled at the next gen.
eral election and not otherwise.
Plans of the Civic Union excise
commissioners have been COM
pletely upset by the act of Mr.. Germs,
they state. Michael Seaman, who to-
gether with Daniel w. Boehm is the
surviving Civic Union member, says
it is not possible to carry out the
work as it had been planned and he
Is disgusted He declared he felt as

TWO POLICEMEN
WILL BE NAMED

1t is likely that at least two ap-
pointments Of policemen will be
made and that Officer John Meshrow
will be pensioned from the police
force soon after January 1. The
idea has been advanced among the
city fathers to pension Mr.. Meshrow
and let the Board of Education en-
gage him as truant officer If 1t
chooses. The mayor would then ap-
point a patrolman in his place and at
least another one to increase the
force.
Acting Mayor Garretson seems to
favor the Idea. He says Mr.. MeshroW
could receive half pay from the city
as pensioned officer and if he chose
could continue in active service as a
truant officer, If the Board OF Educa-
tion would engage and pay him as
such. At present Officer MeShrow is

HOT PACE FOR
CLOSING HOURS
Trailing Teams Try to Re-
gain Lost Lap.
Special by United Press V'tre.


Madison Square Garden, N. Y,
Dec. 14.-Desperate sprinting, the
equal Of which has not been witness
ed in ten years, marked the early
morning hours at Madison Square
Garden today. Although miles be-
hind the record because Of the daily
ing of last Thursday and early Fri
day the men rode at a wonderful
clip from shortly after ! o'clock this
morning right along well into the
day. AS a result the tie that has
existed for five days was broken,
Six teams only were leading and the
favorites in the betting, the team of
Moran and Kramer, had been set
back a lap. AS result they were
trying hard again to regain the covet-
ed circle and this helped to make
the pace hot all the time.
Bobby Walthour went out of the
race as the result of injuries he re-
ceived earlier in the contest. Grassy
Ryan, who had been one of the sur
prises of the race, went to the hos
pital with a broken collarbone, as
the result of spill and a new team
was formed of Cameron and Thomas.
At 9 o'clock Clark and Hill, Grenda
and Pye, Rutt and Fogler, Root and
Hehir, Bedell and Mitten and Dro-
bach and Collins had completed O.
457 miles, nine laps. Suter brothers
had enough and quit. Fogler was
leading. The record is 2,4S9 miles,
six laps, which shows that the spurts
of the riders have done little to make
a new record possible.
At 1 o'clock the leaders in the
race, which ends tonight, had COW
cred 2,492 miles and 8 laps. The
record for the same number of hours
riding is 1855 and two laps. Six
teams were tied at l O'Clock.

One man was knocked from
wagon and cut and bruised and an
other experienced q narrow escape
from being struck when a new dump
ing wagon was demolished by a
southbound train at the New Bruins
wick avenue crossing Of the Central
railroad shortly after O'Clock last
night. The train thundered over the
crossing unawares even to the gate
tender, he claims. Frank Mesky, OF
Cortlandt street, driving a team of
horses attached to new dumping
wagon belonging to Graham & Nc
Keon, was hurled to the pavement as
the wagon was struck and demolish-
ed. A fellow worker, who was also
driving q team attached to a wagon
belonging to Graham & McKeon, fol-
lowed about twenty-five feet behind.
A gate was lowered on the backs Of
his horses and they stopped in time
to avoid crashing into the passing
train. Mesky was generally bruised
and cut about the body by the fall.

member of the police force, is re-
ceiving regular patrolman's pay, but
Is serving as truant officer.
The intention is to have the Board
Of Education engage and pay for Its
own truant officer, to pension Mesh
row under the law and secure two or
more active patrolmen, which, 1t is
generally declared, are much needed
in the police department. Chief of
Police Burke reiterated his statement
today that he could make good use
of at least ten additional patrolmen.
The council will probably take the
subject up with the Board of Educa-
tion in the course of few weeks.
The method of choosing applicants
for appointment on the police force
will probably be by competitive ex-
animation, such as was held when
patt ttolman Louis Smith was named.
