tenance of an Imhoff system of sew
age to be erected and maintained on

That the sprinkling of oil in Camp
bells Pond Millburn, has killed
many fish there was the opinion ex-
pressed yesterday by Fish and Game
Wardens Frederick j. Hall and Will

and who afterwards stated that a full
investigation would be made.
The POND is one of the reservoirs

within the South Mountain Park

there is very little water there and
many of the residents have COM

MOVIE LICENSE
UP TO GREGORY
Mayor Put to the Test of De.
Gliding on His Own
Appointee.

Whether Mayor Julian 4. Gregory
OF East Orange, will approve the ac-
ton of the City Council last night in
granting motion picture license to
Alonzo y Messer. president of the
Police Commission. is question
uppermost in the minds of members
Of the governing body today.
Mayor Gregory, so far. has not APP
proved single license for a moving
picture house in the city. Those he
did not veto he refused to sign. Mes
ser was appointed by Mayor Gregory
and the belief is general that he will
grant this license. In turning down
the previous applications. Mayor
Gregory has hit some of his most
ardent supporters,
Mr.. Messer proposes to have a
theatre at rs North Eighteenth
street. It will cost about $40 600.
Coincident with the announcement
of the d. & Q. Amusement Company
that it has abandoned its plan to con-
duet shows In the Lyceum. applica-
ton for a license to give motion pic
t,ire exhibitions in the building was
filed with the council by the New
Jersey Amusement Company. The
first-named concern was the first to
receive a license in the city. Inc
company had to spend great deal
Ia remodel the first floor of the build
ing TO comply with the provisions of
the building code under Mayor Greg
orv's insistence The company paid
81, 600 for a years lease and then
abandoned it's venture, without giving
any reason. When the company
started to give vaudeville perform
ances in the building less than TWEEN
tv persons attended the afternoon and
evening shows.
John J. Caullet, an advocate OF
commission form of government LOT
Fast Orange, is vice-president of the
New Jersey concern. A check OF Sloo
which the ordinance stipulates must
accompany the application. was not
in the letter, but Mr., Caullet put up
the amount in cash after the meet
ing. Anticipating the amendment OF
the ordinance so that it will include
the granting of licenses for open-air
theatres. the Miller Photo Play Com
pany filed application for permission
to conduct that type of place ):
Meredith Miller, president, appeared
before the council at the last meet
ing, and, after stating he desired to
have an open-air theatre, called at
tention to the fact that the ordinance
did not provide for such permits, and
the committee promised to amend the
measure so that his application could
be considered.

COUNCIL VOTES TO
REPAVE STREET
East Orange SoIons Not All IN
Favor of Needed I'M
provement. !

Agreeing with Councilmen Warren
J Stoddard and James p. Barradaie
that advantage should be taken Oh
an opportunity to improve every thoi-
oughfare in the city, the East orange
City Council last night accepted the
recommendation of the street CONF
mittee that the officials announce
themselves as favoring the resurfac-
ing of Central avenue, which has been
proposed by the Board of Freeholders.
When Offering the commentator
Councilman George A. Grover chalr
man of the committee, supplemented
| it with a request that the body an
nounce opposition to the Improvement,
He based his opposition on the Iaet
that the finances of the city VIII not
allow an appropriation of $2S,0o
which amount East Orange will have
to spend as it's share of the cost Of
| the work Mr. Growers objections
were indorsed by two councilmen, but
five of the other members believe the
| city will benefit by the repaVing or
| the street. and their vote put the
| council on record as desiring the I'M
provement.
Will Probably Be Bitulithic.
"Though the freeholders have not
announced the kind of pavement they
propose laying on the street" said
Mr.. Grover, 'it is almost a certainty
it will be bitulithic. We should at
| least wait until we are satisfied that
| this pavement will be satisfactory
] on Main street before we go on rec
:, ord as having it placed on another
| thoroughfare."
Councilman Stoddard declared it
was chance for an Improvement

| years to come.
| at is a capital thing" he declared.
! IF this Improvement is made" he
! continued, "by next year we may be
able to repave other long streets,
such as Springdale avenue and Will
! lam street"
Mr.. Barradale voiced the belief
/ that Central avenue is the leading
thoroughfare in the city at present,
and though he stated that it is in
! fair condition, the council he
thought, should favor a permanent
| pavement.
Negotiating with Orange.
Councilman Dixon wanted to know
whether Orange proposes to appro-
! pirate money for the resurfacing IF
/ the street in that city. and County
! Engineer Frederick Reimer. who WIS
at the meeting. stated the freehold
ers' negotiations with Orange are
| pending. as they desire to ascertain
! first whether the Public Service Rail-
way Company are to secure a fran
chise for the extension of the Central
avenue trolley line through the strest
in Orange.
Mr.. Buggeln declared the money
should be spent for drains SO that
| people could cross the street follow
| ING rain storms. when announcing he
was opposed to the Improvement Re-
| plying to a statement of Councilman
/ Barradale. Councilman Grover de-
clares the reason the streets of the
city are not in as good condition az
/ thoroughfares in places similar to
Elizabeth and Allenhurst is the fast
there is more heavy traffic on tho
streets of East Orange.

Collectors of police graft in New

the sanction of the police.
Right over here in West Orange
we have a man who has them all

about him can be believed. went out

instead of turning them over to the
