CARTS CAN RUMBLE
ON PARK AVE. NOW
No Longer Is Exclusive Road
Open Only to 'High-Brow'
Equipages.

Park avenue has lost its exclusive
ness.
Hereafter plain, ordinary, common
place business vehicles, grocery
wagons, butcher wagons, even coal
carts, viii be allowed in the precincts
of the thoroughfare, which has lat
terly been sacred to limousines, tour
| ing cars, broughams and carriages.
Tho New Jersey Supreme Court to-
tlav handed down a decision that tho
Essex County Park Commission had
no power TO limit by ordinance the
use Of Park avenue to pleasure Vehi-
cles.
The opinion was written by JUS
ticc Trenchard. Justices Garrison and
Minturn sitting with him.
He says:
"A common highway is presumably
for all people and the public ease
ment therein includes the right to
use the street for purposes of pass
age by the public. and therefore to
employ any means directly condu-
Give to that end which do not sub
stantially Interfere with the cus-
tomary nse of the street by any por-
tion Of the public or with the reeog-
nized rights of abutting owners.
"The Park Commission act under
which the County Park Commission
is empowered 10 regulate the use of
parkways or highways, and which
by the amendment thereto of 1907 is
authorized to enact rules and regula-
tions for the protection, regulation
and control of such parkways. does
not empower such commission TO i'm
pair the use of an avenue which was
laid out as a public highway and used
as such by the public for forty years
without restriction, by prohibiting
the use of the avenue for vehicles
ordinarily used for business traffic in
public streets"
The fight against the ordinance was
made by Park avenue business men.
Robert Barnes & Sons, grocerys, of
329 Park avenue, East Orange, Were
the nominal plaintiffs. They We're
represented by Borden ID. Whiting,
who applied to the Supreme Court for
o writ Of certiorari, reviewing the
legality of the ordinance.
Park avenue is one of the finest
thoroughfares in the county. 1t is SO
broad and we'll bordered with trees
that it resembles a parkway, connect
ing Branch Brook Park with
I.lewellyn Park, West Orange. and
transversing Orange.
The Park Commission has improved
the avenue and erected signs to warn
drivers Of business vehicles that they
could not use the street
The decision of the court will be APP
pealed to the Court OF Errors and Ap-
peals by the commission.

LINER WRECKED
IN LAKE STORM;
40 LIVES LOST
Lightship, With Six Men
Aboard, Also Is Reported
Missing.

PORT HURON, Mich. Nov. n-<At
q late hour today no clue had
been obtained as to the identity Of
the 60o-foot steel freighter which
overturned with the probable loss OF
forty lives during the terrific storm
which has swept Lake Huron for the
past forty -eissl ts,ssrsswrssFhe huge
vessel is lying bottom up. eight miles
ont in the storm-swept lake. Local
mariners are convinced that the ships
crew had practically no chance to
escape. The tug Sarnia City, which
stood by the wreck all night. re-
turned here today with no additional
information. The name of the vessel
is far under water and the waves
still are high.
CAPTAIN Reid, Of the tug, returned
more firm than ever in his belief that
all of the thirty or forty members of
the crew of the 600-foot frelghter must
have been drowned. The wreck not
having been reported until late Sester-
day, IL was difficult to ascertain when
the disaster occurred and where il
took place. The overturned vessel
probably drifted several miles.
Captain Reid also believes that an
other vessel is on the bottom Of Lake
Huron near where the overturned
steamer was first discovered and that
the two ships may have been in col
lision.
As If purposely projected TO mark
the grave of a score or more OF sailors,
the bow of the steamer sticks out Of
the water like a huge black shaft. 1t
Is pointed toward the north and east,
which would indicate the helpless con-
dit'on Of the crew toward the last
and that the vessel had swung around
at the mercy of the mountain high
waves.
cal life-saying station, is at the
scene of the wreck with his crew.

He Says Social Evil Can Be
Banished, Like Yellow Fever

MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi, Nov. H.
''rhe social evil can be stamped out
as positively and easily as typhoid or

scientific lines and with the fullest
recognition of actual causes and con-
ditions." said DR.. I. b. Crothers, of
Hartford. Conn. in his address to the
international Purity Congress to-
daN.
"This can be done by coercion, Sc
eregation and a higher recognition
of the causes which exist in every
community" he said. Segregation of
victims of the social evil in self
supporting hospitals was recon-
fnended.

Zapata, Rebel Chief, Is Again
Reported About to Surrender

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 11.-Emillano
Zapata. the rebel whose operations
have caused the government so much
trouble in the Southern States, is
again on the point of surrendering,
according to official information is
sued today.
An emissary from Zapata Is said TO
have conferred with Provisional Pres-i
ldent Huerta, who offered the rebel
a safe conduct to the federal capital
in order to conclude peace.
1t is not generally expected that
Zapata will accept the proposal. He
has been periodically reported as
suing for peace, but nothing has ever
come of the negotiations. The miniss
ter Of finance today authorized the
Mexican banks of issue to pay out
silver coin at their discretion. This,
is O modification of q recent decree
by Huerta forbidding such payment:
In order that the banks may not
weaken their reserves, however, gov-.
ernment inspectors have been in-
structed to see that the silver hold
ings of the banks do not fall below
the legal requirement.

the substitution for it of central
administrative congress-" giving the

The two houses of the national as
seInbly could be dissolved, the news

parliament has been able to form a
quorum since they first met, on April

Kai issued proclamation eXpelling
from Picking more than 800 members
of the democratic party, who had
tried to curtail the presidents power
and make him entirely dependent on
parliament. He thus made Ii impos-
sible for the houses to form quorum.
The democratic party was formerly
led by DR.. Sun Vat Sen, the first pro-
visional president of the Chinese re-
public, and comprised many former
rebels from the southern provinces.
