ductor, which took place in Wood

SAY PADRONES
ARE INDICTED
Rev. GaIassi ApprIsed That
indictments On Port Reading
Leaders Found Last Week
STATE WORKS UP CASE

1t was learned upon good author
ity today that the county prosecu-
tors staff is quietly working up the
states case against the alleged pad
rome leaders and their accomplices
at Port Reading. Rev. Columbino
Galassi says he has been apprised
in an authentic manner that in
dictments were found about a week
ago against Antonio Messino and Jo-
seph De Vito, who 1t is declared
conduct labor camp illegally at
Port Reading; also 1t Is reported
that indictments have been found
against Lawrence ]. Barrett and
James P. Gerity, two railroad Of
fcials The priest expressed sur
prise at the latter, If it is true, be-
cause, he said, he had expected that
true bills would be found against
think that the railroad men would
be included.
Inasmuch as the states case is
declared to have been practically
complete, 1t is believed that the ac-
cused men will be arraigned next
week, probably Friday. County of
ficials who are interested in the
case, regard it as important and are
exercising the utmost secrecy con-
cerning developments. The techni-
cal charge against the accused is de-
clared to be conspiracy.
Rev. Galassi will watch with eag-
erness the action of the Philadel-
phia & Reading Railroad Company
when it's coal dock laborers at Port
Reading are paid Monday. Despite
the fact that he AYERS the State De-
partment of Labor head recently in
formed him that the company Off
cials would pay in cash and render
the full amount to each man in the
future, he has learned that bills are
still being made out against the en-
ployes. He is wondering as to the
method that will be employed to col
lect payment. If the men are not
paid in full and cash, he will COM
plain again to the state labor Of
ficials.

Mayor Ferd Garretson has issued
a call for volunteers to go to Water
way Conventiins In Jacksonville, Fla,

enthusiast In road construction, the
mayor will personally go with others
to the fourth American good roads

adelphia December 8, 10, IL and IL.
The city makes no provision to

may go from Perth Amboy will nee
essarily be obliged to bear that bur-
den themselves. The mayor feels
that there may be some public spirit

willing to make the cities named
their objective point and at the same
time represent Perth Amboy.

Democratic principles.
Mr.. Hommann, who has been citv
attorney for several years. and has
always adhered to the Democratic
organization, deserves the indgeshin

titled with this political faith. The

VINO has served and gained years
through faithful service in the Dem
ocratlc ranks. His qualifications are
extolled as unquestionable, and his
premediative judgment and careful
weighing of questions before him are
said to make him eminentIy fitted
for the position.
by giving Mr.. Hommann the posi-
ton which Judge Beekman, a Re-
publican appointed by former Gov
ernor Fort now holds, there is Gre
ated a vacancy in a lucrative posi-
ton In the city for another of the
faithful In the Democratic ranks.
Inc city attorneyship will then be
ciear for source Of patronage from
the party. There are a number of
young, aspiring lawyers of the poll
teal faith who have had their eyes
w1stfully raised to the city attorney
ship, which has SO long been held
by Mr. Hommann, one of which will
receive the berth.
Mr.. Hommann was born in Phila-
delphia in 1851. At the age of
seventeen years he entered Lafayette
College, after which he studied civil
engineering. In 1880 Mr.. Hommann
located In Perth Amboy, in which
year he was admitted to the bar as
an attorney, and in 1884 he was
admitted as counselor Before
being appointed city attorney Mr..
Hommann held the position of city
surveyor for a number of years.
Referee in Bankruptcy Adrian
Lyon was the first Judge of the dis
trict court after the establishment
OF that court here, and left the DO
sftion to become Judge OF the county
court Of common pleas. He was then
succeeded In the district court by
Judge Beekman.
The term Of Judge Freeman Wood
bridge as judge of the New Bruins
wick district court will expire in
1916, and some Prominent lawyer
from that city among the Dem ocrat-
ic ganks is likely to be named in his
stead.

THIRTY DAYS IN JAIL
FOR A PANDHANDLER

Boldness in panhandling on a troll
ley car and later in the Maurer sec
ton of the city, caused the arrest Of
Harry Nolan, twenty-siX years old,

night. Recorder Pickersgill COM
mitted him to jail for thirty days
when he was arraigned this morn
ing on a charge of begging.

ture as Nolan was operating in

Nolan had had an accomplice and
that he stepped off the car before it
reached Maurer.

SILZER MAY BE
ATTY GENERAL
MlddlssGx Prosecutor in
Line for Appointment to
Place by Governor Fielder


Prosecutor George s. Silzer is be-
ing prominently mentioned as a like
ly successor to Attorney General
Edmund Wilson, whose term expires
shortly after Governor Fielder takes
office. Mr.. Silzer was one of the
original Fielder men in Middlesex
and was loudest in his protest when
the Middlesex Democratic organiza-
tion indorsed H. Otto Wittpenn prior
to the primaries. Mr.. Silzer during
his two terms in the senate was a
recognized progressive in all matters
Of legislation and stood firmly for
the Wilson policies when the latter
was governor. Later, however, their
relations became somewhat strained
as Mr.. Silzer wanted to be secretary
of state, but David Crater was pick
ed for that place and the Middlesex
man had to content himself with the
prosecutorship. He is close to the
governor-elect, however, and stands
a good chance of moving his head
quarters back to Trenton
While many of the leading Demo-
cratic lawyers of the state are being
banded about in connection with the
attorney generalship Mr.. Fielder is
absolutely non-com initial He in
sists that he Is not even considering
appointments and will not for some
time to come.
Former Judge John w. Wescott,
of Camden, is said by some Of the
state leaders to have an excellent
chance of landing the place. Wes-
colt was a candidate for United
States senator to succeed the late
