ORDINANCE FOR SALE OF
LIQUOR TO BE AMENDED.

An amendment to the present ordi-
lance regulating the sale of liquor was
taken up last night at the meeting of
the I%rvington Town Council. The
amendment requires every n recon-
mending an application for a license
to be a resident freebooter, and every
wholesaler and retailer must be a citi-
zen. A further amendment was passed
requiring that the resident freeholders
who sign the application must live
within a radius of 1,200 feet. The
amended ordinance will be submitted
to the Town Council for legal opinion
before passing 1t on final reading.
The ordinance to license dogs, which
was taken up IN first reading, provides
for a registration fee Of 81 a year for
each dog, and a penalty of S. for each
violation of the ordinance. The ques-
ton Of proper sewer drainage for the
eastern section of the town was con
sidered.

ENGLAND is
AROUSED BY
GERMAN ACT
Sentencing of Stewart at Leipsig
May Prove Breaking
Point.

LONDON, Feb. 6.-There is a rising
tide of anger throughout England over
the sentence to three and a half years
confinement in a fortress, passed by the
German imperial court at Leipsig, upon
Bertrand Stewart. a prominent London
lawyer, c.. a charge of espionage. The
feeling has reached such a height that
there is a possibility that the incident
will prove the breaking point of Anglo
German hostility.
The fact cannot be overlooked that
newspapers representing both of the
great political parties of Great Britain
are clai-.orinS for government action
in Stewards behalf.
The matter will be brought up in the
House Of Commons as soon as Parlia-
ment meets, unless something should
be done by the government in the
meantime. .
British feeling has been inf1amed
about the affair, because the trial took
place mostly in secret. The only wit
ness against Stewart was a Belgian,
who is reputed to be a professional
spy, and IS known to have served sew
eral terms in prison. The theory here
is that the Belgian e~ntrapped Stewart
FOR the purpose Of getting paid for
turning informer.
The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon
makes a passionate appeal to the Brit
ish people never to rest until justice
has been done. other papers contrast
the trial of Stewart with tho open pro-
cedure Of the English courts Of Justice
against a German charged with a SINH
lar offe- .se.

NEWARK IS
EIGHTEENTH
IN BUILDINGS
City Stands High in Estimated
Cost of Construction
During 1911.

According to advance information
received today by William p. o'Rourke,
superintendent Of the building depart
ment, regal ling building conditions
over the United States. seventy-one
cities tabulated show a net gain of
] per cent. for 1911, as compared with
1910, the Western cities, due probably
to their bang %overbuiit, shouldering
most of the losses.
Some of the boom towns of the
Pacific oas seem to have had hard
shedding during 1911, due. probably, to
an off lumber market. Seattle shows
SO per cent. on the wrong side, Ia
coma So and Spokane %, while the
mountain towns. Colorado Springs and
Salt Lake City, fell away 45 per cent.
and 20 per cent. respectively.
Newark sht WIS IS psr cent. loss in
1911 over 1910, against l6 per ont. for
New York Inc 5 per cent. for Pits
burgh.
Some of the Southern cities show
substantial gains. Louisville, 6S per
cent; Richmond, 81 per cent, and Nor
folk, AZ per cen =, willie others how
losses-New Orleans, 80 per cent?;
Chattanooga, q per cent, and Nash
Vile, % per cent.
Newark ranked eighteenth in the esti-
mated cost of buildings in 1911.
An interesting comparison for those
who know of the keen rivalry which
exists between the principal cities of
California is shown by the small in
crease for San Francisco and Los An
geles, 3 PEI cent and 6 per cent, against
the relatively large 36 per cent. for
San Diego. Upon the completion of
the Panama canal San Diego will
doubtless occupy a position of major
importance, because of its ideal loca-
ton as a port of entry, and its SUBJ
stantial growth during the past year
shows that 1t is in line for the prestige
now claimed by its sister cities.
h largest increase was shown by
Troy, with 81 per cent, and the great
est decrease by Duluth. with So per
cent.

securing an increase in salary and bee-

Policemen Dell and Albert j. Kuh-
lar, who had claimed the policemen
had not acted properly In trying to
effect the arrest of a youth, who. he
alleged. had assaulted him, were given
an opportunity to tell their stories. No
one s~ubstantiated Mr.. Kubler. and he
also stated that he had no desire 70

arrested held for the grand jury.
