Answer BE stricken Out.

the answer Of the Commissioners and the
District in the case Of the United States
on the relation of Samuel T. Kalbfus
versus the Commissioners was filed by

by statute within the ten days allowed by
the rule OF court.
The Commissioners contend that the
code of the District of Columbia provides
that the relator. (Kalbfus) must plead to
or traverse the allegations in the answer
of the Commissioners, and that q
joinder of issue Is not such a pleading
and should be stricken out.

FALSE ALARM
SENT IN FROM
FIRE BOX 43

In response to an alarm from box
43 at Buckingham avenue and Hart
ford street at lao o'clock this morn
ing the fire companies made quick
run only to find the box open and no
one around. Chief William P.
O'Hara made thorough lnvestiga-
tion and came to the conclusion that
it was a false alarm. The police
made a search of the neighborhood
but could not find anyone who knew
anything about it. A story which
has reached Chief O'Hara and which
he has not as yet been able to con-
firm, Is that keg dropped from a
beer wagon In the neighborhood yes
terday afternoon or last night and
that crowd of young men got it and
had q little celebration as the result.
The belief was that the crowd got in
toxicated on the beer and concluded
their celebration by sending in the
alarm.

WQULDN RENT
HIS FLAT FOR
LARGE FAMILY
Owner of South Amboy Apart
msnts Being Sued for Da-
IMAGES Here Today.
JURY Is HEARING CASE IN
DISTRICT COURT
Prospective Tenant Claims He
Rented Place and Was Re-
fused Possession

Because they could not gain pos
session of a flat, which they claiam
they had rented from Mr. and Mrs.
Daniel Rygan, of South Amboy, Mr..
and Mrs. Solomon Herman, of the
same place, are suing to recover
damages for the expense and incon-
venience they were put to, In the
district court morning. The case is
being heard before jury. Francis
P. Coan represents the plaintiffs and
Thomas Brown the defendants.
The plaintiffs claim that August
23 they rented flat from defend
ants, and 1t was agreed that they
occupy same the following Tuesday.
On that day when they brought their
furniture to the house they found
the flat locked and the keys, which
they had been given, would not open
the doors; that in view OF moving
into the flat they had paid $50 on a
set OF furniture and obligated them
selves for 800, the balance Of the
cost; that the furniture was moved
to the yard Of the flat and had to
be taken back to the store.
The defense is that the plaintiffs
misrepresented the size of their fam
lily, and that instead OF having four
in the family, as was supposed, there
were eight and visitors; that 1t was
not desired to rent the flat to large
family, and that five dollar deposit
was refunded the prospective rent
ors. The case will probably go to
the jury early this afternoon. Un-
der the new practices act Mr.. Brown
gave a synopsis of the defense OF
the case before its actual trial had
begun. The jury wah drawn by Con-
stable Brown.

100000 FOR
ADDITIONS AT
BARBER PLANT
Extensive improvements Will
bs Made as Result of Tar
If Reduction.
MORE STILLS WILL BE
PUT IN OPERATION
Extra Steamers May be Put
on to Carry Increased Supply
of Crude Product.

AS result of the $3.50 per ton
asphalt, which has been put into eff
feet by the provisions of the new
Wilson tariff law, the Barber Asphalt
Paving Company will increase the
capacity of their local plant about
240 tons per day. The plant here
will be enlarged to accommodate four
additional distilleries for the refining g
OF the paving material shipped here
in crude state. The placing of as
phalt ON the free list will also lessen
the price OF the refined paving and
roofing composition.
Architects of the company are
busily engaged In preparing plans for
the enlarging Of the plant. Though
some work has been done in this
direction only recently, when 1T was
absolutely assured that crude as
phalt would be on the free list, was
work on the plans pursued with the
effectiveness as at present.
The enlargement of the plant will
cost in the neighborhood of 100000
and will require the extension Of the
refining department of the works to
accommodate the four extra distfl-
leries. The increase in the produc-
tion Of the refined asphalt will, 1t Is
believed, give employment to at least
100 more men. The plant at present
employs more than 1000. 1t is ex-
peeted that the four additional re-
flrtng apparatus will be In operation
W thin six months.
The Barber Asphalt Paving Com
pany's plant here is one of the larg-
est industries in the vicinity, giving
employment to more men than any
other plant except the American
Smelling & Refining Company and
the Raritan Copper Works. The re-
fined asphalt is not only used for
paving purposes but great quantities
Of it are used In making roofing.
Manager Robert l.. Fowler, of the
company's local plant, when asked
was unable to say to what extent the
incoming shipping would be in
creased by the addition to the plant.
1t is believed, however, that one or
two more steamers to convey asphalt
from Venezuela and Trinidad will be
necessitated to supply the enlarged
plant.
A new dock is about completed
which increases It's docking facilities
from two to five vessels. A barrel
plant has also been constructed for
the manufacture of asphalt contain
ers. The last few months the COM
pany has been increasing It's produc-
tive capacity in effecting many i'm
provements and additions.

TRIED TO END
PROCEEDINGS
Allan A. Ryan Makes Direct
Charge Against Governor at
Nearing This Morning.
COURT HAS 0VERRULED
DECISION BY JUDGE
Special By United Press Wire.


Anbany, Oct. THE direct
charge that Governor William Sulzer
tried to terminate the impeachment
proceedings brought against him by
trading with Charles F. Murphy,
boss of Tammany hall and William
Barnes, Jr., head of the state Re-
publican machine, was made by AL
Ian A. Ryan at the trial today. This
sensational allegation eclipsed ev-
erything brought out in the trial to
date. Previously the court, by a vote
OF II to IA, overruled Judge Cullen
and made all testimony regarding
the attempt to head off the impeach-
ment proceedings competent testi-
mony.
euIzsr to Take Stand.
There is reliable information to jus
tify the statement that Mr.. Sulzer
won't wait until Sarecky and half a
dozen other witnesses called in his de.
fense have testified before making his
personal appearance. That he will do
SO is generally believed.
The developments yesterday during
the session Of the high court, which
lasted three hours and ten minutes,
were SO startling that Mr.. Sulzers
counsel frankly admitted embarrass-
mept. The testimony of young Ryan
was made the subject of long confer
enee between the governor and his
counsel Of record, from which the mem
bers of the "kitchen cabinet" some
times known as the "board of STRAIT
egy," were excluded
Mr.. Sulzer was on the point of con
tributing an even greater sensation at
the session Of the high ccurt by put
ting in personal appearance. He was
at the executive mansion when inform
ed of the two surprises sprung by the
board of impeachment managers. On
hearing Of them he started for the cap
itol, but was dissuaded from his pur-
pose by two personal friends.
