FILMS
MAY Be HALTED



they will be ordered discontinued the
same as the pictures in the Newark
Theatre were.'
Lee Ottolengui, manager of the
Shubert Theatre, says he welcomes
censorship of the Traffic in Souls"
films which he has advertised. He
declares they are not immoral or in
decent in any manner or form. He
says the films were Viewed by Police
Chief Ryan, of Chicago, and pro-
nounced by him to be entirely proper.
Further, Mr. Ottolengui declares. the
pictures were permitted to be shown
in New York for several weeks with
out any objection on the part OF the
authorities.
BY way Of further substantiation OF
his contention, Mr.. Ottolenguis pro-
duced criticism OF Traffic In
Souls" which appeared in a theatrical
magazine and which praises the reel.
while 1t condemns the other as sug-
gestive
'.If anyone buys ticket to see these
pictures" says Mr. Ottolengui, with
the expectation of seeing something
immoral they are going to be fooled.
Nothing Of this character will be

pictures Is to provide good dramatic
entertainment, and with no other
purpose In view. ne concluded.

COUNCIL CONTROL
IN COURTS HANDS
If GLADDEN. Is Proven an Alien
Democrats Will Rule New
Brunswick.
Especial to the Newark star.I

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. e.
Judge Frank Lloyd, of Camden, is
taking testimony today in a case upon
which hangs the complexion of the
city government for the coming year.
Application had been made to him for
hearing in the Circuit Court.
The question is one involving the
citizenship of Alderman-elec James
r. GLADDEN., of the Fourth ward, q
Republican. 1t is contended by the
Democrats, who were beaten at the
recent election for the Common Coun-
ell, that GLADDEN. is not a citizen, and.
therefore, not qualified to hold office.
Upon the finding of the court depends
the fate of the measures to be intro
duced by the Democrats to the coming
governing board. The removal of
GLADDEN. would give the Democrats a
majority of one in the Council.
Mr.. Gladden's reply to the charges
that his father. the late Samuel Glad
den, had never got his final papers is
that he would produce in court the
citizenship papers which were used
by the later in voting both in New
York and New Jersey. Mr.. GLADDEN.
was a minor when his father declared
his intention of becoming a citizen.
He came to this country from Eng
land at the age of four years. He
served throughout the entire Spanish
American war as a member of Com
pany ID. National Guard of New Jer-
sey. He received an honorable dis
charge.

TspecinI to the Newark Star. l

TOMS RIVER, Dec. 22.-Word was
received here today that William j.
Leehan, acquitted here Saturday of
the murder of Mrs. Caroline Turner
at Lakewood, as told in Saturdays
Evening Star, had arrived at the home
of his uncle and aunt at Manchester,
N. H, where he will begin a years
work on a farm in order to brace up
and become a useful citizen. He says
he is going to let drink alone, and
when 1t is firmly established that he
can he will return here to join his wife
and family.
Mrs Jasper Lynch. who came to
the defense of Leehan and whose in
terest and money greatly sided his
acquittal, stated last night that she
was entirely through with the Turner
murder case.

Lynch. land there are no Cincinnati

Leehan's wife and eleven-year- old
son were in the court room when the
verdict was rendered and were among
the first to congratulate him. He will
not rejoin them, however, for the
present. This is in accordance with
the opinion expressed by Mrs Lynch,
who said:

best thing for Leehan to be allowed
to resume his former relations with
his wife 1t has been shown, and he

by Virginia Detectives


WINCHESTER Va, Dec. 22.-Of-
ficers of a number of cities and towns
in the Cumberland Valley are on the
lookout for Colonel Benjamin Il.
Patterson, alleged promoter of trolley
schemes and other enterprises, who

in York, Pa, in September, 1910, for
having passed bogus check In a de-
partment store in this city. He was
returned here and sentenced to serve

lantic City, N. J., Olean, N. Y, and
