BIG WEIGHT FRAUD
CASE POSTPONED
Company Seeks to Recover
5000 1t Lost Through
Plot.

There was to have been a first
hearing in a suit before Yice-Chan-
cellor Stevens today to establish an
equitable trust in property owned by
William II. Kitchell. formerly OF
Elizabeth, as the initial step in the
Barrett Manufacturing Company's
move to regain part of $4,000 it
claims it lost by a swindle in weigh
ing. Kitchell was weighma ster in the
company's big paper mill at Eliza
bethport.
The weighmaster, it is declared, dis
appeared shortly after the alleged
swindle was discovered, leaving about
$4,000 in Elizabeth property and
mortgages. AS result of the affair
Ralph Marone, of Hoboken, was SEN
terced to a years Imprisonment by
Judge Atwater, in the Elizabeth
Court of Common Pleas, after trial
of eighteen days, one of the longest
criminal trials on record in this State.
and the company now seeks to get
Kitchell's property on the ground
that he was a party to the fraud
and instrumental in its losing $115,000.
Counsel in the case held a conference
today and further action was post
poned until April 80, pending an ar
rangement.
At the time of the trial in Eliza
beth 1t was brought out that Kitchell
conspired with Marone, who is a
dealer in scrap metal. to overweight
the latters shipments when they
came into the factory at Elizabeth
port. This was done so cleverly, it
was declared, that the short amounts
were not detected until the loss to
the company amounted to s115.000
Marone was arrested and Kitchell
fled
Samuel Sinner. of Elizabeth, APP
peared in the interests of Kitchelrs
property at the conference today. He
was associated with Alan II. Strong,
of New Brunswick Arrayed against
them were Frank p. McDermott, of
Jersey City, and II. r. johnson and
William II. Shields, of New York.

SUGGEST PAVING
PLAN CHANGES
Broad Street Merchants Hold
Meeting and Go Before Works
Board Today.

Not altogether satisfied with the
tentative specifications for the wood
block paving contract for Broad
street. a delegation of merchants from
that thoroughfare will suggest several
changes in the present plans, as pre-
pared by the city engineers, before
the Board OF Works this afternoon.
The merchants, together with three
consulting engineers. held a special
meeting at the Board OF Trade rooms
shortly before noon. at which every
phase of the paving question was dis
cussed. 1t was learned that the speci-
fications in their present form. in the
main. are satisfactory To the mer-
chants. There are, however. few
minor changes which their own engi-
neers, who will appear with them al
the board meeting, have suggested
should be made.
The specifications in their present
form prohibit the use of any but a
high grade preservative for the blocks
and the exact quantity of oil with
which the blocks are TO Be saturated
Is also specified. No deviation will be
permitted. BY this means 1t is hoped
TO produce a uniform condition.
Besides the Broad street merchants
1t is likely that number of other
citizens will appear with reference to
the subject, but il is not likely that
there will be any serious hitch in the
proceedings. The paving resolution
provides that Broad street shall be
paved from Pointer street to Belleville
avenue and cannot be changed with
out again going over the entire work
Residents below Camp street object
TO the paving of the street. For this
reason 1t is likely that the work will
be let in two contracts. one reading
from Belleville avenue to Camp street
and the other from Camp to Poniei
street. The latter contract will not he
awarded, so that the actual work will
only be between Belleville avenue anG
Pointer street.
The cases of three employees of the
water department, who were suspend.
ed on charges last week, will probably
be disposed of today. 1t is likely. how
ever that only one of them. George T..
Huber, will be tried. Just what will
be done with the other two, George
Cohen and Frederick Hohweiier is
not known. All three were suspended
for Irregularities in their work.

playing merrily around his home, 81
Boyden street.
While his mother was putting his

playmates in the street below. He
leaned so far out that he lost his
balance and tumbled over the sill.
Plunging down headfirst he struck

served to break his fall. He bounded
off and dropped to the pavement,
where Anthony Corbo, of Is Boyden
street, picked him up and carried him
to the Office of DR.. A. II. Bianchi, i0f

For orderly conduct and from an

most complete tie-up of an industry
that has ever occurred IN Paterson or
elsewhere Involving. as it does. IS
manly nationalites as are here, the
solidarity is perfection. There is no
sign of breaking ranks from any
Quarter. The workers are determined
10 enforce the demands and many
OF the members of the manufacturers
union, or association, have expressed
Willingness to grant every demand.
II seems that among the employers
there are many who are willing To
grant the demands of the workers.
and 1t seems there are some who
think that this is the opportune time
to crush out the smallest competitors.
As to this phase of the situation the
workers are particularly interested.
