in Orange. Assemblyman Murray, OF
Orange, will probably be asked to in
troduce a bill in the Legislature for the
establishment of a comptrcller's and
t~reasurer's office in se~cond-class cities.
This decision was reached last night
by Orange Common Council after a
lengthy discussion. Five councilmen
wanted the matter deferred.
Councilman Henry 7. Stetson faith
cred the plan on the strength of the
report for a classification in the prep
aration of public statements. Mr.. Per-
inc, who made an investigation last
September, said it would be a saving
to The city to establish a comptrollers
office. lie explained in detail the rec
ommendation, and. said that although
it would cost the city $1,000 to install it,
The Office would mean an annual saving
of 81, 200 or 81, 400.
Mr.. Stetson's plan fixes the salary of
the office at $4,000 a year.; first assist
ant, 81, 1900; second assistant, $1,000;
third assistant, 81, goo; treasurer, $4,000,

late the present office-holders out of

would be anticipating the work OF the

$4,000 SUIT
FOR ISLANDER
is ON TRIAL
Petersen, Nutley SalOOnkeeper,
Plaintiff Against Rev. Henry
|. COndit.

An echo of the stormy council meet
ing at Nutley on June q last, when
Rev.. Henry J. Condit, of the st. PauFs
Congregational Church, in bitter Ian
guage opposed the granting of q liquor
license to Larz j. Petersen, of the
Central Hote,, is on hearing before jury
in the Circuit Court, with Judge Fred
erick Adams presiding.
The echo is the suit for Islander
brought by Patterson against Rev.
Mr.. Condit, the former claiming dam
ages to the amount of $4,000. Appar-
emily every resident of Nutley hat did
not have to go to business or that
possibly could get away from home
came to Newark today to hear the
trial. and the court room was crowded
to the doors.
At the s,uncil meeting Rev. Condit
is alleged TO have made bitter remarks
against the sort of place u by Pet
tersen, II tina he did make such
statements was testified to by a num-,
Der of witnesses who were present at
the meeting. While Petersen did not
succeed in getting. his license at this
meeting, he did at "a later one, and
then started his suit for SANDER
against Rev. Condit.
What Petersen charges is set forth
in his declaration in the following
words: ''That at the council meeting
Rev. DIR. Condit said that Petersen
had women in his place from Ho-
boken, New York and Brooklyn to
spend Saturday night n Sunday for
immoral purposes: that Pettersen's
place (meaning the Central Hotel and
the Franklin Hotel) are houses OF
prostitution, and cannot be trusted. on
account Of the acts of the past
1t is alleged in the declaration thai
the latter statement and several others
were repeated several times and in the
hearing of a number of different people.
Further, the declaration says, quot
ing Mr.. Condit's remarks at h Coun-
ell meeting, 1.-TWO ladies of my congre-
cation came to me and asked me to
protest against the issuance of a license
to Mr.. Petersen, because when Mr..
Petersen had a license before he i'm
ported women from New York and
other places on Saturday nights and
Sundays for immoral purposes. I pro-
test against the issuance of a license to
Mr.. Petersen or the Franklin House,
as the character of the applicants in
the past in maintaining houses of pros
titution was such that they could not
be trusted
1t is also alleged in the declaration
that statements of similar import to
the above were made a number of times
by Rev. Condit.
Testimony tending to show that Rev.
Condit had made such remarks at the
council meeting We're given by Mr.. Pet
tersen himself and by Abram H. Van
Ripper, John Mulch, Matthew j. Cal
lahan and Frederick Clark.
j. Harry Hull. of Nutley. and Hugh
NJ. Barrett, of this city. are represent
ing Petersen. while II. B. Reed is
looking after the interests of Rev.
Condit.
After Attorney Reed, in opening the
case for the defense, had announced
that it would be contended that the
statements made by Rev. Condit at
an open meeting were privileged, court
adjourned until tomorrow morning at
10 O'Clock to allow Judge Adams TO
attend q funeral this afternoon.
