WILENTz COMPANY
FEUD IN COURT
Stockholders Will Be Arrayed
in Factions Before Vice-chan-
ceIIor Stevens April ii.

Stockholders Of the Wilent1 Com
pany. manufacturers of tobacco, with
q plant in Perth Anfboy, will be ar
rayed in opposite factions before
Yioe-Chancellor Stevens on April Is.
One faction, through Judge William
Newcorn. appeared before the vice
chancellor today and sued out. a writ
to show cause why the other stock
holders should not be compelled to
live up to contract to dissolve the
firm and restraining them from col
1ecting insurance resulting from n fire
in the plant on December 16 last.
The suit is brought by Nathan.
Bertha and Frank Wilents. all of
Perth Amboy, as the Wilentz Com
pany. against Harry Conard, Harry
L. Wolf, Harry Brewer, Samuel
Tucker John S. Hansen, Joseph
Brucl<, John Seaman, Andrew Liptak
and Joseph Greenbaum, also of Perth
Amboy. Mr.. Conard is cashier of the
First National Bank there.
The corporation was organized in
1908 by the Wilentz family and the
nine defendants as the Wilentz Com
pany, with the Wilentz family hold
ing sixty-seven apd one-half shares
ance of forty shares.
Becoming dissatisfied with the re-
turns of the business in 1912, Mr.. Con-
ard and the others agreed to sell out
their stock to the Wilentz family for
80 per cent. of it's value. according to
Judge Newcorn. In the agreement
Wilentz and his family were to pay
81, $50 in notes, upon which some of
the stockholders were indorsers.
The new owners agreed to pay $3.50
a month on the notes and the stock
holders agreed to reindorse them.
Then, as an evidence of good faith,
the stockholders assigned their stock
to Mr.. Conard and Mr.. Wilentz turned
over his home. worth $4,000, subject
to a $4,000 mortgage, to the bank
cashier.
Then the plant was destroyed by
fire, and, according to the Wientz
faction, the nine defendants refused
to reindorse the notes.. Judge New
corn declares they held out so they
could collect in full out of the insur-
ance money. instead of taking the so
per cent. agreed upon. He says Will
entz has offered to assign enough of
the insurance money TO pay the notes
in cash, although they still have four
teen months to run, but the former
stockholders refused this, demanding
100 cents on the dollar. The loss has
been adjusted at $4,000.

.%0N LICENSE
'ORDERED REVOKED
Personalities and Sarcasm Fig
ure in Heated Debate BE-
fore Vote.

The action of the BelleviIle Town
Council in ordering Town Attorney
John DeGraw to take steps to have
the saloon license of Herman Soll1y
revoked has caused a furore in the
town. 1t was the general impression
that a fine of $50 for selling on Easter
sunday was sufficient punishment,
f especially after the accused had
readily admitted his guilt and also
because of the fact that he has
always borne good reputation. 1t
was the first complaint against his
place Of business.
The purpose Of the Council TO take
drastic action al The meeting last
night was entirely unexpected The
decision was reached after heated
argument, in which personalities and
sarcasm figured. The vote to order
action towards revoking the license
was 4 to 9.
1t was Councilman DR.. e. o.
Cyphers who introduced the resolu-
ton. He offered no reasons in sup
port OF his action. It was understood,
however, that 1t was because SollSy
had been fined on Monday night by
Police Recorder r. Henry Ashworth
for violating the excise law on Easter
Sunday. On what grounds the town
attorney will proceed is unknown, as
Mr.. DeGraw is now in Jacksonville,
Fla. There is no town ordinance
covering tie point in question, and it
is believed that the town attorney
viii take advantage of the bishops
law.

caused by a defective fiue.
Mrs. Dawson and her two sons
motored to the house, which had been
closed all winter, yesterday and TO
take off the chill a log fire was
started in the open fire place, but
heavy smoke sweeping back into the
room showed that the chimney was
elogged and the fire was put out.
Nothing more was thought of it until
one of the earetakers noticed smoke
issuing from the roof and before the
fire department of Glen Cove arrived
the building was doomed.

ANOTHER JOB FOR BRANDEIs
Wilson Said to Want Him to Super
wise Indian Affairs.

Washington, March 12.-President
Wilson is credited by reliable author
ity with desiring to obtain the SER
vices of Louis d. Brandeis of Boston
as United States Commissioner of In
dian Affairs, but some of the high Of
ficials of the administration think
that Mr.. Brandeis could not be in
duced to accept the position.
The Administration is represented
as being anxious for Mr.. Brandeis to
supervise Indian affairs in order to
root out alleged corruption in Okla
homa and other places where there
are Indian reservations. Charges
that the Indians have been the vic
tins of INSCRIPTIONS exploiters have
attracted the attention of the Admin
istratlon and some officials have
thought that Mr.. Brandeis would be
the man to bring the offenders to
justice.
Mr. Brandeis was shown down on

Secretary of Commerce and Attorney
General, according to the Cabinet
