mon Pleas Court today is hearing ap-
plications for liquor licenses in South
Orange township. the applicants be-
ing John Stubenyoll and the Heidel-
berg Park and Hotel Company.
Stubenvoll, through his counsel.
Jacob L. Newman, seeks a license
for a saloon at the corner of Valley
road and South Orange avenue, while
the Heidelberg Park people, through
Joseph Kahrs, of Lintott, Kahrs &
Young, as counsel, desire a license to
operate the park property at the
junction of Millburn avenue and
Valley street.
Granting of the license is opposed
in both instances by It. w. Smith, as

saloons are not needed by the resi-
dents of the township. Stubenvoll
and the Heidelberg company are,
through witnesses, trying to show
that the licenses should be granted,
as saloons at the locations named are
of convenience to a large number of

they should notify the kearny police.
Foster suggested, however, that the
injured men be placed on car and
brought to the Harrison car barns

in waiting. Tho sergeant pointed out
this would save considerable time.
This proposition evidently did not
appear favorably to the traction au-
thorities for the suggestion was not
carried out An outsider telephoned
news of the accident to Sergeant
Philip Bell, of Kearny. As the scene
of the mishap is probably three miles

had to travel all the way back to ST

ambulance departed from the scene
that an auto ambulance from ST.
Francis Hospital, Jersey City ar
rived. At about 1925 p. m. Kelly,
then dying, was lifted into the ma
chine and taken to the hospital
