$4,000 REAL
ESTATE DEAL
W. F. Van Pelt Sells Proper
ty Through Burke & Bolger.

One of the biggest real estate
deals recorded in this city in some
time was consummated today when
title to the William F. Van Pelt
property, foot of Gordon street, on
the waterfront, passed to the Raritan
Mercantile Company for the consid-
Grafton of about $4,000. The Rari-
tan Mercantile Company transferred
to Mr.. Van Pelt the properties at
462, AGA, 466 and 468 Park avenue
and to Michael Liston the property
at 40 Park avenue as a part OF the
transaction. A strip Of land ON the
waterfront adjoining the property of

cern, was also transferred to Jens P.
Westergaard, who transferred the
property at 19 Smith street to Jens

through by Burke G. Bolger.
The Van Pelt transfer recalls the
sale which was made between Will
liam F. Van Pelt and DR.. George w
Tyrrell about eight years ago. At
that time DR.. Tyrrell refused to take
title on account of not being able to
clear up the title. Through the eff

sented the Raritan Mercantile Com

the Middlesex Title Guarantee and
Trust Company, represented the
Title company; Adrian Lyon looked
after Mr.. Westergaard's interest and
Kehoe G. Stremlau and Shirley &

PROSPECT FOR
NEXT ELECTION
Two Mayors May be Chosen
lone Mould Serve From
November to January |.
OTHER FOR z YEARS
One Man Could be Elected
to Both Under Provisions
of Meeker Act.

When the general election is held
| ON November s., candidates will be
elected to serve out the unexpired
term L. of former So Mayor Albert
Bollschweiler, disqualified by virtue
of his election to the Office of sheriff
of Middlesex county, and to serve
for a full term of two years from
January /, 1913, according to infor-
nation received today from good au-
thority. The candidate elected to
the unexpired term will take Office
on November 6, the day following
the general election, and will serve
as incumoent until his successor
takes office on January /, 1918, If
the election is held lder the Meek
er Act, approved in 1901.
Judge Lyons Opinion.
Former Judge Adrian Lyon
brought to light these facts on Sat
urday afternoon when he carefully
persued the Meeker Act and found
1t applied to the local situation, af-
ter the general election In November.
He Immediately notified City Attor-
Iney G. G. Hommann of his findings,
who previously, was In somewhat
of quandary as to what course
would be taken by the City govern
ment after Acting Mayor Ferd. Gar
retson's term, as provided by recent
legislation, expires on the date of
the next general election. The
Meeker Act had been overlooked
during the interesting moments pre-
ceding and following the promotion
of Alderman-at-Large Garretson to
the office of acting mayor, formerly
occupied by Vice-President L. G.
Dalton.
Section OF the Act.
Following Is Section five, of the
act in question, which applies to the
local situation, several lawyers con-
tend: .All vacancies In offices In
any city of this state arising from
or created by any other means than
expiration of term of office, shall be
| filed for the unexpired term only;
vacancies in elective offices shall
hereafter be filled at the next general
or state election and not otherwise" !"
1t is the belief of Judge Lyon that
this section is conclusive and will
necessitate the election of either two
candidates or the lection of one
candidate to fill out both terms.
Garretson May Be Choice.
1t is the obvious conclusion that
the two leading parties will nomin-
ate the same man for both terms.
In fact, the Young Mems Republican
Club will meet tomorrow night In
Moose hall to discuss such action
1t is a known ract that the honor
of the nomination of mayor and act
ing mayor will be presented to Mr..
Garretson, although 1t is equally as
well known that he has expressed
himself as against any change at
this time. Mr.. Garretson stated to a
NEWS reporter today that he found
more pleasure In the work of alder
man-at-large and was adverse to any
plan whereby his present office
would be jeopardized and placed in
a position whereby a Democratic
successor could be elected to the Of
fee.

SCORES PERTH
AMB0Y WOMEN
Mrs. Bertha Fraser in Adj

Night--Big Audience.
SAYS WOMEN SHOULD VOTE
Attacks Those Who Signed
Petition Against Suffrage
Bill in the Legislature.

scoring the women of this city and
vicinity who recently signed petit
tons opposing the Woman's Suffrage
Bill in the Legislature, and declaring
that they were instrumental in the
development of conditions under
which lat girls lost their lives year
ago in the Triangle Waist Company's
fire, in New York city, Mrs. Bertha
Nj. Fraser delivered an eloquent and
inspiring address last night in I'M
ion hall before the members and
friends of the Perth .Amboy branch
of the Socialist party Mrs. Frasers
remarks were received with consider
able enthusiasm and applause by the
unusually large audience
Thinks Women Should Vote.
In speaking of the woman's suf-
frage question, Mrs. Fraser denied
that she was a suffragette, although
as a Socialist, she has been led to
believe that women are entitled to
vote. In the speakers opinion, If the
women were in voting position to
determine whether or not such condi-
tions would exist as those which
caused the New York fire horror,
similar tragedies would be ayerted
rather than repeated every few days.
Many prominent women of this city
signed petition recently as being OPP
posed to woman's suffrage, which
was forwarded to Senator George s.
Silzer with the request that the mea-
sure before the Legislature be de-
feated IL in his power. Mrs. Fraser
strongly rebuked these anti-suffra-
gettes.
Anniversary of Fire Horror.
AS last evening was the first ami
versary of the Triangle Waist Com
pany's fire horror, Mrs. Fraser dwelt
upon the conditions before and after
the tragedy in passing. Her address
on the topic, WHO Should Own the
World" severely raped the capt
talists and financiers, such as An
drew Carnegie and John D. Rookie
fe1ler, whom she mentioned in her
address. Mrs. Fraser lamented the
fact that the people who produce
worldly goods are not in power at the
present time, but rather are ruled by
a chosen few, who have accumulated
fortunes by dishonest methods, as
the speaker declared. or were profit
ing by the masterful luck and ener-
4saFss~~~asathod of their fore-fathers.
