ANGRY CROWD
MAKE THREATS
AT POLICEMAN

An angry mob threatened Patrol
man Lester ]. Underhill last night,
when he attempted single handed to
remove Mike Tochin, twenty-one
years old, from boarding house at
827 Huntington street. The man
was wanted ON charge of assault
ing a woman about six months ago.
He fed from the country, and upon
his return the complainant again
asked for his arrest. AS Underhill
entered room In which Tochin and
six other men were seated, he was
surrounded and threatened If he
should attempt to remove his man.
The attitude OF the men towards
him were visibly unpleasant. I'm
derhill left and returned with Pa
trolman Harding and the auto pa
troll. Tochin was then arrested with
out difficulty.
He was fined SO for fleeing from
the city when wanted and for re-
sisting an officer. In view of the
fact that the complainant, Mrs. Mary
Eletsko, also of 827 Huntington
street, did not have witnesses on
hand, he was not prosecuted for as
saut. The prisoner pleaded not
guilty to assaulting the woman and
said he had not fed from the coun-
try because of any crime he had COM
mitted, but wanted to see relatives
and work in his native land.

Fines aggregating $3.50 have
been imposed by Justice of the
Peace Pickersgill and paid following
the most successful two-day crusade
ever conducted In this city by the
Society for the Prevention of Cru
city to Animals. The accused men
included farmers from several
places about the county who had
come to patronize the public market
yesterday. Most of the violations
consisted of driving animals that
har sodes on their bodies. The pen
alties ranged from $40 to $50. The

ry Stolte, of South Amboy, and An
drew Schuck, of 239 Washington
street, this city, were arrested on
Thursday on charge of driving
horses which had sores. Stolte was
fined $40 and Schuck $40. ......
The fact that it was market day
yesterday caused the S. P. @. A.
agents to catch several violators
from out Of town, as well as own
ers and drivers from this city. The
heaviest fine of $50 was imposed on
Raffaele Fazio, baker of ACT John
stone street, for causing his son,
Ralph, to drive a horse which the S.
P. G. A. agents say had very sore
back. The son was first fined $40.
The father refused to pay the money,
despite the fact that he owned the
horse. AS the son was about to be

seized with a spell as she was telling
Justice of the Peace Pickersgill that
her husband had beaten and driven
her from their home this morning.

CARRY MIDDLESEX BY
$500 AT THE PRIMARIES

wick, Mr.. Fielder did some good
campaigning and while he was din
ing at the Hotel Klein he shook
hands and talked with the most
prominent men of the county seat.
Prosecutor George s. Silzer had a
long talk with the candidate and for
fully one half hour after luncheon
was over Mr.. Fielder was kept busy
shaking hands and making new
friends.
About 2 o'clock the six automo-
biles lead by the candidates machine
left New Brunswick and proceeded
by the way of Milltown to South
River, which was reached at 2.4O
o'clock. No stop was made at Mill
town owing to the lateness of the
hour. The audience at South River,
which had congregated in front of
the post office numbered about $50
men, women and children. After
getting acquainted the candidate
spoke for about five minutes. There
was much applause during his speech
and three cheers were given when

turned against him. Fazio shrug-
ged his shoulders and did not seem
to care what happened. The SON s
fine was accordingly remitted and
Fazie was fined $50. He refused to
pay and a commitment was made
out for the county Jail. Fazio then
weakened and settled. His wife Sc
Verely scored him for thus incurring
an additional fine of $40 and costs
amounting to $5. Fazio had pre-
viously been fined for a similar Of
fense. Louis De Toro, of 253 New
Brunswick avenue, was fined $25 for
driving a horse with sores on its
body. A Sussman, of Smith street,
was fined $40 for driving a lame
horse. John Beauregard, of 278
Maple street, driver for George w.
Mercer, was fined $40 for jerking
and beating one of Mercer's horses.
His excuse was that he had become
angered when the animal became
frisky.
w. H. Giffhorn, Of Spotswood, was
fined $40 for driving team of lame
mules. Alderman F. A. Seaman In
terceded for the man, declaring he
was one of the best farmers that pat
ronized the public market here and
had done much to make it a success.
Out of town persons penalized for
driving horses with sores were :.
Benjamin Weisen, of Browntown,
$40; Alcide Bretague, of Annadale,
S. l., $40; Tony Lomaro, of English
town, S25; Mike Falco, of Little
Texas, $25; and Steve Valchen, of

Bicycle Store of HENRY TiSSer at
365 State Street BadIv DAMAGED
About 7 O'clock This Morning
SUSPICIOUS LOOKING BUCKET

A blaze, which the fremen be-
lieYe was of incendiary origin, de-
stroyed and damaged the stock of
motorcycles and bicycles and acces-
sories of Henry Tisser, at 365 State
street to the amount of about $4,000
and did other damage, about 7
O'Clock this morning. The fremen
found a four gallon bucket contain
ing inflamable oil in which were
submerged big punches of brown pa
per. This was burning when the
Lincoln Engine Company, who were
the first company present, reached
the scene. The fire, which spread
through about half of the building,
seemed to have emanated from the
bucket, which the fremen declare,
had apparently been ignited by some
one. The windows of the one-story
frame building at the south west cor
ner of State and Centre streets are
loosely fastened at night, and could
easily have been entered. Henry
Tisser, the propritor who says he
was in his apartments further down
the street at the time, could not tell
how the fire originated.
The buildine 'hich is owned by
e. M. Kelly, - damaged consid-
erably in the interior. 1t is covered
by insurance. Tisser's stock. which
he claimed was worth about $4,000
is covered by enough insurance, it is
thought, to repay his loss. The Elk
Stamp Company, of which Samuel
Tucker is manager, had the small
rear room of the bicycle repair shop
stored with furniture, some of which
was burned. The stock of the stamp
store, which adjoins the scene of the
fire, was damaged considerably by

S OO,OOO SCHOOL BONDS IS
RECOMMENDED TO ALDERMEN
Estimate Board
Acts to Help
Schools

Learning of the imperative need
OF additional school facilities from
Superintendent s e. Shull, of the
public schools, and getting the opin-
ion of City Treasurer Charles K. Sea-
man that school bonds could be
marketed, though he did not know
at what rate, the Board of School
Estimate last night unanimously pas
sed a certtfication for the Issuance
OF 100000 school Improvement
bonds by the city. The certificate
will be Immediately sent to the
Board Of Aldermen, who, 1t Is believ-
ed, will act on the matter at their
meeting September 15, and approve
the recommendation. The certificate
states that the money is needed sor
the purchase OF property in Stockton
street and the erection there of an
eight room addition to No. school
In Smith street, and also the erection
OF another eight room school build
ing at Hickory and Lawrence streets,
where the Board of Education al
ready own sufficient property for
the location of the structure.
The Board of Education last spring
passed a resolution asking the Board
OF School Estimate to certify to the
council the need of the issuance of
bonds, and 1t was duly brought be-
fore the latter board at it's meeting
in June. At that time, however,
$4,000 street improvement bonds
could not be disposed of, so the
board decided to wait until the
money market was less stringent be-

SWEEPING CRUSADE ON DRIVERS
OF HORSES BY S. P. G. A. HERE
CAUSES FINES T0TALL|NG $3.50

"You will receive a majority of
between $500 and 5000 from Mid
dlesex county at the primaries" said
Democratic County Chairman Thorn
as Hagerty, in bidding farewell to
Governor James f Fielder at the
Packer House last night, following
the candidates successful automobile
tour of the county. The governor
replied that he was greatly pleased
with the success of yesterdays cam
paign and felt certain that the coun-
ty chairman's prediction would come
true. Mr.. Hagerty does not believe
the vote in Middlesex on primary
day will exceed 5000 and declares
that If Katzenbach should get 800
he will be greatly surprised.
While the crowds at the places
visited by the candidate yesterday
were in some instances not large,
considering the fact that the candi-
date arrived at a time when the
men were at work the attendance
was regarded as excellent. Although
no speech was made at New Bruns-

water, and the store of Silver and
: Hermann next to the stamp store,
was damaged by smoke. The dam
age of the latter two places viii
estimate about $500.
The rear room of the burned
building is a small compartment,
which both Tisser and Tucker used,
the latter to store surplus furniture.
The apartment is connected with the
second rear room of the bicycle shop
where most of the damage was done
In the demolishing of a valuable
stock of bicycle and motorcycle
horns and lanterns, pocket lights,
etc. Before the fire could spread
from this to the first apartment lead
ing to State street, the flames were
extinguished, and practically all the
damage in the front of the store
where the bicycles are stored, was
done by water and smoke and the
breaking of glass.
The blazing can of oils, which Tis-
ser said was floor preparation, was
found Just inside the third rear
third apartment close to the ent-
rance to the second room in which
most of the damage was done. Oils
and grease of this room, which was
used in making repairs to bicycles,
made the flames eat their way to-
ward the front of the structure
rather than to the rear where the
furniture of the Elk Stamp Com
pany was stored. Tisser said he left
the shop about $50 click last night
in safe condition and that to his
knowledge there was then no fire in
side. Chief William P, O'Hara re-
calls that this is about the fifth
time in the past two years that the
building has been afire.

IN
iST WARD BAR
ENDORSEMENT

Ihree important resolutions were
passed at a meeting of the First
Ward Democratic Club last night,
one being against the Endorsement of
any candidates until after the pri-
maries. The club believes that the
choice should be left to the people
and decided that it is not within the
scope of any club or organization
under the election law to make In
dorsements at this time. Another
resolution was to call on all Demo-
cratic congressman to give loyal sup
port to the tariff and currency meas
ures and to defer until some future
session the Offering of amendments
or criticism likely to delay or defeat
the passage of either. Copies will be
forwarded to the New Jersey repre-
sentatives in the house and senate
at Washington. The third resolution
was approving the action of the har-
Dor board in their fight to secure
street ends and recommending the
reclamation Of Raritan street as the
beginning of the establishment of a
beautiful drive and park along the
waterfront.
William j. Leavy, one of the Dem
ocratic candidates for the alderman
at-large nomination, and Patrick J..
ROCKS, who is seeking a freeholder
nomination, were present and made
short speeches. Mr., Rocks is now a
resident Of the first ward and was
elected member of the club last
night. Thomas J. Smith was renom-
mated for president of the club but
declined the honor. The following
officers were then elected: James w.
Henderson, president; James Rhodes,
first vice president; Thomas ].
Smith, second vice president; Albert
II. Bran, secretary and treasurer;
Chris Diedricksen, sergeant at arms.
President Henderson suggested that
the club as a committee of the whole
make an active campaign to secure
new members between now and the
next meeting on September 1S.
The club discussed the "smoke"
nuisance of the Raritan Copper
Works and decided to turn the mat
ter over to the First Ward Citizens
Club. The club felt that it had made
considerable progress in the matter
but that as 1t was political organ
ization their motive might be mis-
construed and for that reason it was
turned over to the Citizens Club.
The resolutions adopted In full
were as follows:
"RESOLVED, that we recognize It
is not within the scope of any club

he concluded.
Sayreyille was reached at $40 o.
clock and about so people we're ad-
dressed in front of the town hall.
Philip Farley was on the job and in
troduced the governor to his fellow
townsmen. A trolley car passed
while Mr.. Fielder was speaking and
the passengers cheered. Joseph ALL
gater, one of Sayreville's leading
lights, and a former freeholder, took
the candidate about and introduced
him to his fellow townsmen. Chief
Boyler, Sayreville's famous sleuth,
handled the crowd to perfection and
was delighted when the governor

WOLFSON MAY
BE CLOSED UP
BY THE POLICE

As the result Of q fight waged by
the Rubsam & Horrmann brewery
az saiast David Wolfson, the latter 8
saloon in the former Patrick Campbell
place at l45 Washington street may be
closed today or the early part of next
week. 1t is the intention of William
Wheeler, who it is alleged holds the
license for Breitfeller and Hacker in
the interest of the Staten Island
brewery, to have the police close the
saloon unless Wolfson settles. What
the settlement shall consist Of is a
matter of opinion among the interest
ed parties. Wolfson says he has paid
Breitfeller and Hacker for the IL
cense and owes neither them nor
Wheeler anything. On the other
hand, Wheeler, through counsel, John
Delaney, says he is being defrauded
out Of $3.50. Wolfson says it appears
to him that the Rubsam & Horrmann
people will only leave him in peace
when he has agreed to sell their beer.
Chief of Police Burke said today it
would practically be an injustice to
Patrick Campbell, owner of the build
ing in question, to close the place, as
he had lost financially when Wolfson
carried the license from it to August
Kroeger' s building some months ago.
The place has but recently received a
license, caused by transferring that of
Wheeler from 10 Fayette street.
Thomas Brown, counsel for the
brewery, conferred with Mr.. Delaney
this morning and asked him to rescind
q demand for a settlement under pen
atty of closing the saloon at noon to-
day. The lawyers have practically
agreed to postpone the closing until
the early part of next week
