On the other hand. il has been de-
termined by experiment that clover

tains so much water that 1t is hard

Presenting the view of the admin
istration of the city Of Newark was
Chief Engineer Sherrerd
The reason the bill was introduced.
he said, was to get legislation before
the present session, since the present
canal commission did not seem dis
posed to put in a bill
The chief bone of contention. Mr..
sherrerd said. was the disposition Of
the basin at Jersey City.
Right Remains with Legislature.
The right remained with the Leg
islature, he said. to change the presv
ent use Of the property to some other
public use, and the only question
regarding reversionary rights would
be if the burden. of the new use was
greater than that of the present
In replying TO question. Mr.. sher-
rerd admitted that if the canal was
abandoned the Lehigh Valley rail-
roads right to use the Jersey city
basin until 1874 would be settled in
favor Of the company That 1t would

Jury HAS CRANES
ALIENATION SUIT
Three Days They've Heard Hus-
bands Charges Against E. w.
Ketcham, of East Orange.

After listening to a short charge
by Judge Nelson Y. DUNCAN the jury
that for three days listened to the
testimony in the suit brought by
Eugene Z. Crane against Edward w.
Ketcham, of East Orange, for alien
alton of the affections of his wife,
Lillian A. Crane, retired to deliberate
on their verdict
Judge DUNCAN explained the law
covering alienation. and said the jury
would have to be guided by the evil
dence as to whether there was any
affection to be aliehsted or not. The
charge lasted less than half an hour.
In stunning up, yesterday after
noon Martin Conboy, counsel for
Ketchann,, intimate that the case
was one of collusion between Mr..
and Mrs. Crane. in that. although
Crane had known of the relations ex-
listing between Mrs. Crane and
Ketcham as far back as 1906 he had
not brought suit until 1912. He also
called attention to the fact that let
ters written by Ketcham to Mrs.
Crane had found their way into the
pOsstSSiOb VI WI. NIdHc dAtCi lii =.
Crane had quarreled with Ketchsm.
II. II. Frying. who represented
Crane. in combating this, cited the
fact that Crane had not seen his
wife or had any conversation with
her for several years prior to the
beginning of the trial on last Mon
day, when he saw her in the court
room. He explained the starting OF
the suit after, so long a time by say
ing that although Crane knew of the
relations between Keteham and his
wife he could get no evidence that
would warrant suit.

That's what Romeo Bianchi thinks
about automobiles. Romeo bought
an auto, but he doesn't own it. He
paid 265 good American dollars for
It, but didn't even crank it.
Romeo lives in Chase avenue, in
Klngsland, Bergen count. Despite
that fact, however, he wanted al
auto.
He saw one in the store of the
American Second Hand Auto Com
pany at 9S7 Broad street.
THAT looks good to me- he said,
How much is it,

lars" said John r. Hennessy. who
claimed to own the place and every
thing in it.
I'VE only got hundred in small
change with me, but I'll bring the

was agreed.
The next day, sure enough. Bianchi
pays Hennessy his little $l6o and
receives a receipt in full.
Going TO take it with youy' the
dealer asks.

Then he went around to the front
of the car, stopped down, grasps the
crank and was just going to spin
it. But he didn't

voice in his ear.

you are one minute and eight sec

Then the gentle voice explained that

was attached The voice explained
that it was w. Locke Rockwell, the
receiver for the bankrupt, talking.

$1,000 VERDICT
IN SK|MMERTON
SHOOTING CASE
Hugh orter, Wound
ed Serenader,
Wins Suit.
WALTER ]. FORCE FIRED
SHOTGUN INTO CROWD
He and Bride, Returning from
Trip. Were Greeted With
Il Riotous Music.

After being out less than an hour
a Jury in the Circuit Court this after
noon awarded Hugh Porter verdict
of Sc. 900 damages for injuries sus-
tanned, he claims, when Walter j.
Force. young bridegroom, dicharged
both barrels of shotgun into crowd
of serenaders at his home in Livings-
ton. Porter was one of the serenaders,
The suit was for $1,000, and was
brought before Judge Frederick
= Adams. The jury retired soon after
o'clock and appeared less than an
hour later.
Force was married on June Is, 1911.
and took his young bride away on
a wedding trip. He returned to the
home of his father in Livingston on
the night of June 10. Word was
passed around the nelghborhood
where Force and his bride we're both
popular, that they were home. and
q crowd, armed with musical and un-
musical instruments, gathered on the
front lawn to give the bridal couple
an old time serenade. After consider
able noise had been made, Force, it is
alleged. appealed to the crowd from
an upper window to disperse, claim
ing they were frightening Mrs. Force.
t'he crowd kept up the noise, and
Force seized shotgun loaded with
birdshot and fired into the crowd of
merrymakers.
Walter Levenguth and Hugh Por-
ter were both hit by the shot, Leven-
Ruth getting so many in the small
of the back that his life was in
danger for considerable period. Por-
ter was also so badly hurt that he
was confined to his home for con-
Siderable. period.
Force was arrested and held pend
ing the extent of Levenguth's in
iuries. When the latter recovered a
charge of atroclous assault and bat
terry was made against Force, and
after several dates had been set for
trial he finally pleaded guilty to the
charge and was fined $1,000 and costs
by Judge Martin in April, 1912.
