Collected From the Local
Coal Dealers
CLAIM FINES IN WEIGHT
CASES LAST YEAR
Special to tho EVENING NEWE.

New Brunswick, Oct. 20:-The
City of Perth Amboy today began a
suit against the County Board Of
Freeholders for the recovery of $500
paid in fines to the county by Perth
Amboy coal dealers within the past
two years. The city contends that
it is rightfully entitled to the money
under the weights and measures act
In event it is secured it will be used
to pay for a public scale house now
under construction at New Bruns-
wick avenue, Madison avenue and
Fayette street in that city.
When City Attorney c. c. HON.
mann opened the case this morning,
Judge Lloyd declared it should right
fully come before Judge DAILY. How
evqr, he agreed to accept briefs from
the lawyers. City Attorney HON.
mann will endeavor to show by the
suit, which is friendly one, that
the money belongs to the city.
When the case was opened before
Judge Lloyd this morning, County
Solicitor John A. Coan, representing
the freeholders, declared that only
fines paid by orders of justices of
the peace and recorders could be col
lected by cities. He declared further
that the coal dealers in question,
who were punished for short weight,
were fined under the crimes act and
not under the weights and measures

Mrs. Pankhurst
THINKS SHE SHOULD NOT

Though she does not approve of
the meahods used the militant
suffragettes in England, Mrs. c. F.
Benton, president of the Equal Suf-
frage League of the Amboys, stated
this morning in an interview sought
by the EVENING NEWS, that this
country ought to be big enough to
admit Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst..
She stated, however, that she did not
approve of the way the woman s
suffrage party of England is trying
to secure the ballot. Mrs. Benton
will leave Thursday on the Cunard
liner Ivernia for Dalmatia, Austria

about six months, during which time

companied by two friends, Mrs. j. F.

other lady.
Mrs, Benton, when interviewed con
corning Mrs. Pankhurst, who is at
present held up on Ellis Island as an
undesirable, pending action at
Washington, said: ut is hard to
know what to say about her. /
don't consider she is very dangerous.
| do not believe in the militant
methods at all; the country, though,
may by big enough to let her in,
but | do not think she has any right
to come over here and get our money
for her militant cause.
During the absence of Mrs. Ben
ton, Mrs. Mary e. Buffum, vice
president of the suffrage league, will
act as president.

BANK MOVES
SAFE HOLDING
TWO MILLION
Big Strong Box Of First Ma
tisnal Placed Safely in
New Location
BEING DONE IN
NEW QUARTERS

The First National Bank is com
fortably and conveniently located in
It's new headquarters in the former
Scheuer building, now owned by
Sigmund Spitzer, at New Bruns-
wick avenue and Smith street. The
bulk Of Its paraphernalia was re-
moved from Its former location at
11O Smith street late Saturday night
and yesterday morning. With the
removal of one of the large safes
across the city's principal street in
tersection went $1,800,000 In cash
and securities. In another went
many thousands Of dollars In deposit
boxes. A curious crowd made up
Of score of men and boys watched
tho removal of the two big safes
throughout yesterday morning.
Owing to the great weight of the
vaults 1t was tedious work and day
light arrived before the third safe
could be removed to the new quar-
ters. Much rope and tackle and a
heavy automobile truck comprised
the moving outfit. The safes were
rolled on their wheels over iron
plates and despite this precaution,
81
plates and sank into the wooden
block pavement. The greatest diff
fculty in the work was experienced
in turning them and hauling them
over the trolley tracks. Cashier
Harry Conard and several employees
Of the bank were among those who
watched the removal.
Banking officials we're congratulat-
ed upon the Improvement today.
Practically all who visited the new
quarters stopped to pass favorable
comment. Cashier Conard is espe-
cially pleased with the new quar-
ters because of the space they af-
ford and the excellent ventilating
and lighting facilities. Instead of
using fourteen gas lights and nine
electric lights ON desks continually
during working hours, the employees
of the institution now have ample
daylight.
The arrangement of departments
Is especially convenient and there is
liberal supply Of windows to avoid
congestion. The main corridor is
wide and roomy, AS one enters, the
windows to the right are bookkeep-
ers, passbook, two extras, general
bookkeeper, an extra window, five
for receiving tellers and three for
paying tellers. At the left are the
officers department. note teller and
windaw for collections. A heavy
bar arrangement guards the head
of the corridor, directly north of
which is the large money vault and
other departments. 1t Is intended
to erect a new, modern and burglar
and fire-proof vault there.
