ARMSTRONG MUST
REPAY RECEIVERS
Especial to the Newark star. ]

TRENTON, Jan. 27.-Two opinions
were rendered in the Court o; Chan
Gerry today in the lor s%-pending suits of
the receivers of the State Mutual
Building and Loan Association against
former Judge e. Amber Armstrong, of
Camden, and others. Judge Armstrong
was the president and solicitor of the
association. One suit was against
Armstrong personally and the other
against him in connection with others.
AS the result of both decisions Judge
Armstrong will have to pay the re-
ceivers a considerable amount of
money.
In the suit against him and others
Armstrong is held responsible for sixty
FIVE shares of the Atlantic Electric
Light and Power Company, of Atlantic
City, at $62.50 a share. This stock was
hypothetical with Armstrong; com
pany for a loan and was turned over
by Armstrong with other stock of the
same company. owned by himself,
which he sold, and for which he had
paid. 1t was not shown hat he ever
got any money for the hypothecated
stock, but the court says he could have
gotten the money for the asking. and
that the testimony shows he agreed to
collect 1t. The court dismissed the suit
against John j. Burleigh, the purchaser
of the stock, saying the case against
him is not one of equity.
Armstrong; defense was Thai his
.bookkeeper who handled most of these
matters was dead, that his books were
destroyed and that he was not in a
position to make the clear explanation
he otherwise would have made. In
this statement Judge Armstrong did
not accuse his bookkeeper with with>
holding any money.

ORDERED IN
FREEROLDER CASE
Essex Board Claims Civil Serv-
ice Law Does Not Super
cede Strong Act.

Arguing that the Strong act of 1910,
of Freeholders is constituted. was not
superseded or repealed by the pro-
visions of the civil service act of 1908,
as relating to the tenure of office of
county employees, County Counsel
Benjamin F. Jones, representing the
Beard of F~reeholders in the certiorari
proceedings regarding the dismissal of
Hubert Walker and Pierre Black. up
peared before Justices T~renchard, Min
turn and Kalisch, sitting at the Court
House here today as the Second Branch
of the Supreme Court of New Jersey.
Former Sheriff Frank H. Sommer.
Theodore D. Gottlieb and Alonzo
Church appeared for the prosecutors,
Black and Walker.
The case as outlined by the defense
is that the Strong act, virtually the new
charter of the county of Essex, created
the new county commission and defined
its duties and provided h a the terms
of office of all appointees of the old
board shall expire OIL the first Monday
in January e after h election OF
the new small board, which, in the
cases under consideration, was Janu-
airy /, 1912, and that all such Offices
shall become vacant, and that the new
board shall forthwith fill all such soffi-
ces for the term of n year, the only
exceptions being the county collector.
It continues in force all existing stat
utes applicable to boards of freehold
ers, except SO far as the same may be
inconsistent with the meaning of said
act.
The defendants contend that the
Strong act Is in full force and effect in
Essex county, end that it's provisions
have not been in anywise superseded
or repealed by the civil service act.
After presenting the arguments for
the defense County Counsel Jones was
asked by Justice Minturn: do you not
feel that the civil service act is a part
of the policy of the Staten
81 admit that fact" was the reply;
.but / do feel that the board should
be given power under the terms of the
Strong act to remove the 'deadwood'
accumulated under a previous board,
and / feel that a general act should be
subject to the restrictions Of more par
ticular acts"
At the close of argument counsel for
10Th sides were directed by the court
to submit briefs by next Saturday.

McDERMIT is
REBUKED BY
JUDGE HAHN
Lawyers Action Called Undig-
nified and "Will Not Be
Tolerated"

Judge Hahn, in the First Criminal
Court, was today compelled to halt
q case to rebuke James r, McDermit
for his manner in examining witnesses.
Mary Rauth, II years old, of 410 North
Third street, Harrison, had by her
confession, implicated Frederick Lu-
zardi, q years old, of II Court House
place. The two were arrested in a
furnished room house at 9S Bank
street, by Plainclothesmen King and
Smith.
When Plainclothesman Smith took
the stand Counsel McDermit demanded
to know what had led to the arrest of
the girl and man. Smith refused to
answer and emphatically declared he
would not tell. The court sustained
him and this provoked McDermit.
Pointing his finger at the patrolman.
McDermit began a TRADE which COM
PEELED the court to interfere.
1t is believed that the parents of the
girl notified the local police that the
two were living together at the Bank
street address. The girl on the stand
declared that she left home because
she was unable to get along with her
parents. She was sent to the House
OF Detention in $500 bail. while Lu-
zardi was sent to the county Jail in
the same amount.
After court McDermit was called to
the bar by the court. Judge Hahn
said: Mr.. McDermit, your action. this
morning has been very undignifed, and
I will not tolerate it in this court. You
must conduct yourself the same as
every other lawyer who appears be-
for this court"
