Mathew F. OBrien, eighteen years
old. OF 427 Division street, was jerk

CURED at 9 O'Clock last night as
young O'Brien with about twelve
other youths and girls from this city
were leaving the train at Elizabeth
port.
Eye witnesses declare the train
gave a sudden jerk as it was about
to stop while OBrien was on a lower
step. He was dislodged from his
position while the train was in mo-
ton and the slippery surface OF the
ground caused him to partly slide
and roll under a car. The wheels of
the truck stopped on his body and
the train had to be backed up TO ex-
tricate his crushed form. He re-
mained conscious almost until death
and conversed with his friends i'm
mediately after the accident and on
the way to the hospital.
About twenty-five young people
from this city attended the dance
held in Turn Hall at Elizabethport
last night. The party in which young
O'Brien was included left on the
train due at the Central station here
at 8:14 o'clock. Being late, it did
not arrive here until S:2. o'clock.

Egan, Andrew Petersen and HIS

! Several of the youths went out on
the steps of the train as 1t pulled into
the Elizabethport station, witnesses
declare. Young O'Brien was one OF
the first out on the steps. John
FRANKIE was beside him. To the
borrowing sight of several people on
the platform of the station and sew
eral about to leave the train, O'Brien
was hurled from his position and
disappeared under the heavy trucFs
of a passenger coach. He screamed
and tried ia vain. t. save himself
from going under the car. He slid

An apology made in open court
saved Miles Browning, son of Cren
F. Browning, from punishment on a
cruelty to animal charge before Re-
corder Pickersgill last night. The
youth was accused of wilfully shoot
ing A. Clayton Clark's dog with a
rifle. He admitted his guilt, but
said the dog had been a nuisance
about his home. His father corro-
borated his statements. Recorder
Pickersgill said 1t was not likely that
Mr.. Clark wanted the young man

suggested an amicable settlement by
making an apology. The young de-

FOR POLICE JOB

Twenty-nine candidates for posi-
ton as patrolman on the police force
took the civil service examinations
held under the direction of Secretary
Percy E. Coutts, of the local Board
of Civil Service Examiners, and
Mayor Ferd Garretson in the high
school building at 1880 O'Clock last
night. Twenty-six finished. The
papers of these will be carefully re-
viewed and the results announced in
the course of few days.
The eligible list thus established
will remain in force for year. APP
pointment OF patrolmen within that
period will be made from the list. 1t
is the intention of Mayor Garretson
to make two appointments at once
and as many more during the year
as provision may he made for fnan-
cially by the Council.
More than thirty applicants took
the physical examinations before City
Physician NJ. S. Meinzer. The men
tai examinations held last night con-
sisted of simple tests in spelling,
memory, arithmetic, information
Perth Amboy evening news., 1913-02-11

about the city, general government
and duties of policeman. In the
spelling test the applicants were re-
quired to spell twenty-five words
commonly used in police and court
work, such as arrest, detail, disor-
derly, ambulance, warrant and the
like.
The memory test consisted OF read
ing reports with descriptions to the
applicants and later asking them to
write out the reports as completely
as possible. For arithmetic the ap-
plicants were given examples in addi-
ton, division, subtraction and multi
plication. Twelve questions were
asked concerning information about
the city. Ten were asked about gem
eral government and ten about police
duties.
Amusement was caused by the re-
ply of one applicant to the question
"If you should find the body of q
well-dressed young woman lying in
the street, what would You do?' The
amusing reply was, LOAD her in a
patrol wagon and lock her up

Despite the fact that the Council
has made no increase in the appro-
priation for Fairgrounds over the
allowance made last year, the Play
ground Commission with the aid of

to resume activity in April for the

that they will then begin to meet to

BITTER DISPUTES HEARD
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Trenton, Feb. 11.--Critici5m of
courts and judges for their alleged
attitude toward labor organizations
and laboring men featured the hear
ing yesterday afternoon before the
Assembly Judiciary Committee on
the bill by Assemblyman Quinn, of
Middlesex, Assembly 121, regulating
the issuance Of restraining orders
and injunctions in cases of strikes.
The hearing was marked throughout
by bitter disputes between rep-
resentatives of manufacturers and
railroads and labor unionists as to
the merits of the measure.
The severest criticism OF the
courts and judges came from Assem-
biyman Quinn who is first Vice-Presi-
dent OF the United Brotherhood of
Carpenters. In advocating his meas
ure he said:
Tho object of this bill is to reme-
dy an injustice In the courts. II
judges saw things from the humane
standpoint this bill would not be
here Injunctions have been issued
almost forbidding men to breathe.
We do not seek to protect law
breakers, but We do seek to protect
our constitutional rights. 1t Is a
bill to remedy condition where the
courts assume authority. 1t is this
assumption OF authority against la
Dor unions and the laborfng men
which in bringing our courts into
disrespect. The courts seem to de-
eide one way for one class of citi-
zens and another way for the labor
unions
The bin provides that no restrain
ing order or Injunction shall be
granted in any strike or other labor
dispute, unless necessary to prevent
irreparab1e injury to property or to
property right of the party making
the application. 1t provides further
that no right to continue the relation
Of employer and employe or to carry
on business of any kind shall be con-
strued as property or as constituting
property right.
Another advocate Of the bill was
Samuel Botterill. President of the
New Jersey State Council of Carpen-
ters. He also maintained that the
labor movement has suffered from
the decisions of the courts, and said
that on this account the labor unions
had been forced to seek this legisla-
ton. He maintained that under
