Trenton, April 30.--It is probable
that Speaker Leon Il. Taylor Will not
preside in the assembly next Tues
day at the opening of the special ses-
sion Of the legislature. Speaker Tay-
lor, who Is lawyer, has an import
ant case in court that day and ne
came here today to consult with Gov
ernor Fielder as to whether he would
be needed at the conVening of the
assembly. He explained to the gov
ernor the need of his being In court.
but said the legal engagement could
be broken II absolutely necessary.
Governor Fielder stated that the
expectation was that the legislature
would meet at noon and after in
PRODUCTION of bills and the transac-
ton of some other merely routine
matters would adjourn until later
day to permit the bills to be printed.
The governor thought, therefore, that
there would be no pressing demand
for the presence of the speaker at the
short opening session. If Speaker
Taylor Is not present, the assembly
will be called to order by Clerk Mark
Phillips, OF Essex county. after which
a temporary sneaker will be chosen.

CAN PETERSON
Do JURY DUTY?
Legality of Grand Jury In
dictments Involved.

According to the Interpretation OF
the law of several attorneys here,
the indictments handed up by the
grand jury of Middlesex county dur
ing their term ending last month,
may be contested and objected to as
illegal IL John N. Peterson, whole
sale LIQUOR dealer at 400 New
Brunswick avenue was not q resident
of Middlesex county at the time he
represented this city on the grand
jury inquest. The matter OF Mr..
Peterson's residence Was brought out
In the district court this morning,
when after having been subpoenaed,
he asked the Judge to excuse him
from jury duty because he did not
1.-Two In Middlesex county, or be-
cause he was not sure as to his res
idence He stated that he and his
family live In Elizabeth, in Union
county, and have been living there
since last September, though he con-
ducts his business here. Judge
Beekman excused him rs not being
resident as his home is in Eliza
beth.
Straightway after the judges de-
cision arose the question, If he is
not resident of Middlesex county
today to serve on district court
grand jury, then how could he have
been resident of the county, to
serve on the grand jury last month?
And, IL he iG not resident why
were not his actions on the grand
Jury during the last term Illegal?
A question as to Mr.. Peterson's
right to vote arose at the election
last fall, when he was challenged.
This challenge, however, Mr.. Peter
son stated this morning, WAS over
come by an opinion given by Judge
Daily at New Brunswick in which the
Judge held that Mr.. Peterson had not
lived in Elizabeth long enough to
vote there, and as he should not be
deprived of his vote, he had legal
right to vote where he last resided.
Mr.. Peterson stated this morning
that he has no intention of return
ing to Perth Amboy, and as he has
made his home In Elizabeth, he con-
siders himself more of citizen OF
Union county than Middlesex.

JURYMEN SCARCE AT
THE DISTRICT COURT

The district court was In session
one hour this morning before suffi-
cient number of eligible jurymen
could be secured to form tribunal
OF twelve to hear the action of Joseph
Taborowsky against Emil Wilhelm.
Judge John w. Beekman, in no leni-
ent way, scored those citizens who
by all manner of artif1ces try to
have themselves relieved Of Jury ser.
vice. The Judge ayerred such was
patriotic duty which every citizen
should partly bear. He acknowledged
that the fees are small, but stated
they have to be paid by the loser of
an action in the court and IL they
were any higher an attempt to at
tain justice through suits would be-
come so expensive as to retard right
eous suits.
Sergeant-at-arms William Hoffner,
after yesterdays admonition from
the judge, had only subpoenaed If
teen men, out of which panel, after
the lawyers had made several chal-
lenges, only four were secured to
perform the judicial function. Then
six men were subpoenaed from the
court room, of whom two were
chosen This made six selected men
out of the dozen. SO the sergeant
started on the street to bring in all
that perchanced his way. He cor
rallied six in about half an hour, but
when they had been returned to
court after they had undergone the
searching questions OF the lawyers,
only three were accepted as Jurors.
BY this time more citizens had gath
cred in the court room, and 80 the
sergeant began making use Of this
material close by, and finally three
men from the courts spectators, In
cluding Janitor Mason, of city hall,
and John M. Murray, made up the
twelve tribunals.
Judge Beekman criticized the Law
regarding the subpoenaeing of tales
men, declaring that more than fii-
teen should be countenanced by the
statutes.
