EX-GOY. FORT DENIES
CHARGES OF MULHALL
Ispeclal 10 the Newark star.I

SPRING LAKE, N. J., June 3d.
Former Governor John Franklin Fort
has refuted the charges of Lobbyist
Ndulhall, of the National Association
OF Manufacturers who, in story ap-
Pearing in a metropolitan daily, said
that the former executive had joined
the association in their fight against
the reelection of Congressman John
i Gardner, of the Second New Jer-
Sey district.
Mr.. Fort expressed surprise that
Mr. Mulhall should have referred to
n i'm in his article against the asso-
citation by whom he was employed
for many years and said that at no
time during his term as Governor of
New Jersey had he participated in
any movement that had as it's pur-
pose the defeat of the legislation in
Congress or the overthrow Of Gard
ner.
1t was in pointing out the power
Of the association that Mulhall re-
ferred to the alleged cooperation of
New Jerseys former executive to de-
feat the chances of Congressman
Gardner who had then servdd almost
twenty years in Congress. He said
that he went to Trenton in 1908 and
by means of letter of introduction
from Judge William H. Speer, Of Jer-
sey City, was closeted with Mr.. Fort.
He said that Mr.. Fort. agreed at that
time to help defeat Gardner. He
further claimed to have held two
later interviews with the former Gov
ernor.

JACK LONDON ARRESTED
IN OPIUM JOINT AS THIEF

Arrested as an inmate of an "opium
joint" Jack London. 21 years old, SOB
South Tenth street. was found to be
wanted by the police on a charge of
larceny. London was charged with
working a "three-card -monte" game
on Charles Smith, of 11s Summit
street. who gave up IS to Howard
Harris. said to be London's confed-
crate.
Sergeant Kull and Detective Brex
by ruse, obtained admittance to the
house at Sc Bruce street at 2 o'clock
yesterday morning. They found three
young men smoking the opium in the
apartment of Harry and Jennie Scott,
they allege. An opium outfit was
confiscated and the inmates and tho
alleged proprietors arrested. Michael
Ryan, of Philadelphia, and Joseph
Dugan, who gave his address as b07
Eighteenth avenue, this city, were the
others caught. The SCOTS were held
in $500 bail each and the witnesses IN
5000 bail for examination tomorrow
morning.
London was arrested a few weeks
ago on a charge of working the card
game, but upon his explanation that
it was all Joke. Judge Hahn allowed
him to go free. The latest complaint,
however, caused the court to fix bail
at $500 for action Of the grand jury
on larceny charge. Harris, the man
said to be his helper, was held in
81 800 bail.
Brex and KulI recognized London
as the man the First Precinct police
were looking for and after the charge
at the Third precinct had been made
the prisoner was taken to the First.

newark TRENTON
ROUTE IS OPENED
Public Service Officials and Lo-
cal Business Men Make In
auguraI Trip Today.

The new high-speed trolley route
between this city and Trenton was
formally opened today. when a party
of Public Service officials. Newark and
Elizabeth business men and repre-
sentatives from Trenton made the
trip from this city to the capital city
in the scheduled time of two and
half hours. Luncheon was served
aboard the trolley cars.
The first regularly scheduled trip
will be made tomorrow morning at 6
o'clock from the Lackawanna railroad
station. Succeeding cars will leave
that terminus every hour until 9
o'clock at night. The cars will pass
Broad and Market street eight min
utes after the hour. The scheduled
time of the journey one way is two
and a half hours.
The cars which are used on the
route were made in the Public Serv-
ice shops especially for this service
and are bronze green. They are 45
feet long, seat go people and are
equipped with ice water tanks and
high-speed type and capable of main
tanning a speed of over forty miles
an hour.
The short line cars follow the route
of the Elizabeth car to the arch in
Elizabeth and then proceed down
South Broad street and over Bay way
and through private right of way
for twelve miles to Germantown.
From there the Public Service tracks
are used again along the regular
route through New Brunswick and
Midtown, after which private right
of way is used for the rest Of the way
to Trenton. The terminus Of the short
line in Trenton at present will be the
Trenton Junction. This is made nee
essary because of the fact that the
high-speed trucks are wider than the
cars used in Trenton. An additional
rail is being laid alongside the regular
tracks to permit of the passage of the
high-speed type of cars.

HE WILL LOOK AFTER
VETERANS COMFORT

GETTYSBURG, Pa, June 30.-Ma-
jor James e. Normoyle, of the quar-
termaster's department, United States
Army, has charge of the arrange
ments for feeding and housing the
10000 veterans of the Civil War at
the celebration on the Gettysburg
battlefield, July l to 4.
Everything has been done to make
these old men as comfortable as pos
sible, but 1t is feared many will die.
They will sleep four in tent on
regular army cots and will be fed in
a dining tent with food cooked by
the regular army cooks. When it
was suggested to two old veterans
that a great many fatalities would
result, one said he would rather die
on that sacred ground than live an
other ten years and die somewhere
else. The average age Of these 10000
men is seventy-two years.

Would ENJOIN A |
LOCAL COMPANY
New Workers Ask o. w. Youne
Co. Be Stopped Distrib-
uting Circulars.

Ten thousand circulars entitled
Victory. is Ours; Young's Non-f1uid
Oil Wins Again." were distributed
broadcast throughout New Jersey
New York and the New England
States In August, 1911, when Vice
Chancellor Stevens refused to decide
against the o. w. Young Company. of
this city. In a suit brought by the
New York and New Jersey Lubri-
eating Company.
Today the latter company sought,
through the Court of Chaneery. to en-
join the distribution of any more of
the circulars. on the ground that the
0. w. Young Company had not won
the original suit and was, therefore,
working a fraud on automobile
owners who read the circulars,
through a misrepresentation of the
facts.
The first friction between the 10
companies arose in 1910, when the
o. w. Young Company, whose plant
is in Frelinghuysen avenue adopted
for it's product a trade name used by
the New York and New Jersey Com
pany, "non-f1uid OIL" The latter con-
Germ brought suit SO 1t could enjoy
exclusive use of that trade name, but
the vice-chancel1or refused to decide
the case. holding that the words
''non-fiuid OIL were a misnomer in
the first place, because the product
was grease, and not oil
Inasmuch as there had been no de-
cree taken, argued Edward M. Collie,
counsel for the complainant, the
Young company had no claim to a
victory, nor were they entitled to
change the name of a certain brand
of their product from Our Winner
to 1.-THE Winner" Chester w. Fair
lie, of Lum, Tamblyn & Colyer, de-
clared for the defense that the words
1.-THE Winner had no relation to the
outcome of the old suit. He also de-
clared that the defendant company
had used up It's circulars in August,
1911, and did not intend to print any
more, and he thoght it strange that
the rival company should bring up
an action of this kind at so late a
date.
The vice-chancellor took the case
under advisement and asked counsel
to file briefs. He will probably give
an opinion In a few weeks.

BARRIERS STRIKE
ara HsAuA -ur rA1N
NEARING I'LL END.
Unless Non-Union Recruits Are
Gained Struggle Should
Cease This Week.

The forces of the striking BARRIERS
have been considerably thinned as
the majority OF those who walked
out two weeks ago are now back at
work because their employers have
signed the union agreement. Only
score of strikers attended the meet
ing today at 66 South Orange avenue,
and there was much dissatisfaction
over the report that many BARRIERS
who signed the agreement to close
their shops on Sunday remained open
for several hours yesterday.
The leaders of the strike expect
that the employers of the 1ourneymen
stiu out will be persuaded to sign
during the coming week. This means
that unless recruits are gained from
the non-union workers the strike Will
be soon brought to close. The union
journeymen BARRIERS had expected
that many more non-union men would
Join their ranks when the new sis
ter local to Local No. 319, Journeymen
BARRIERS International Union OF
America, was formed.
The boss BARRIERS are still circu-
lating the petition which is 70 be
presented to the Common Council on
Friday, July II, together with a draft
of an ordinance compelling the Sun
day closing of barber shops. A COM
mittee of the bosses will make an
other tour of the city shops tomor-
row night and request all owners who
have not signed the petition to affix
their signatures.
OFFER for Transfers.
An offer to return to work pend
ing a settlement of their demands by
a board Of arbitration has been made
by the striking teamsters to the
wholesale meat dealers. At the same
time petitions have been circulated
among the wholesalers by the Retail
Butchers Association of Essex coun-
ty, asking them to re-established their
delivery system which was abandoned
when the strike was declared.
George A. Colby, secretary and
treasurer of the union, today an
nounced that the retailers would
patroni only those wholesale deal
ers who consent to continue deliv-
cries to the smaller merchants. In
many cases the retailers petition has
been forwarded to the main office of
the Western concerns who have
branches here. The teamsters' strike
has now been fought for six weeks,
and, 1t is thought. an agreement will
be reached within a week or two.
The demands of the striking pearl
button-makers have not yet been
granted by the manufacturers, al
though the strikers claim they have
the industry in this city completely
tied up. 1t is said that there are
about $50 skilled workmen in the
strikers ranks. Another meeting was
held today at Sc South Orange ave-
nue., when the leaders urged the
members to have a little more pa
tience and promised that their de-
mands would be granted within a
short time. The button-makers are
demanding working week Of fifty
five hours instead of fifty-nine hours,
with the same amount Of pay.
