A NEW SCHEME
TO GET BRIDGE
Aldermen Hope Success in
Latest Convery Place Plan

The aldermen are now engaged
In a new scheme to get a bridge
over the Lehigh Valley tracks for
the extension of Convery place with
little expense to the city. They are
confident of success and declare it
must be kept a secret in order to
carry it through successfully. The
subject was discussed at their COM
mittee meeting last night and several
other matters were handled among
the most important of which was the
selection of a dog catcher. 1t was
decided to appoint Albert Leonard,
of South Amboy, who served prior to
the appointment of Ole Linde Olesen.
He will probably be appointed Mon
day night and is to receive $1.50
for each dog caught and killed. The
aldermen practically decided to pur-
chase a new bicycle for Building In
spector Michael J. Mcnamara and to
procure two new dump wagons for
The street department.

CITY BONDS TO
Be SOLD AGAIN
City Treasurer Notifies Al
dGrmen--1912 Council Gave
Wrong Notice of Intention
ADVERTISE THIRD TINE
Will Now Call $4,000 Is
sue for Street improvements
as Funding Bonds"
ADVERTISE THIRD TIM

Bonds to provide $4,000 for
street improvements already made,
will have to be advertised for a third
time, according to notification receiv-
ed by the aldermen from City Treas
urer Charles X. Seaman, at their
committee meeting last night. The
reason given is that the council Of
1912 gave but ten instead OF fourteen
days notice of intention for establish
ment of the Improvements. The al
dermen were informed that as the
law provided that fourteen days no
tice must be given for such improve
ments, the bonds could not legally be
termed street improvement bonds. "
AS the way out of the difficulty
without going to the labor and ex-
pense of repeating the proceedings,
some of the bondfirms suggested that
bonds be readvertised for as fund
ing" bonds. 1t is likely that this
Will be done Immediately, so that the
money may be made available with
out further delay. When the bonds
were first advertised for, no bids
were received owing to the distress
ed condition of the financial market.
Mr.. Seaman used his influence with
the large money dealers and procur-
ed local bids when he advertised
second time. A careful review of
the proceedings by lawyers for the
successful bidders revealed the dis
crepancy.

ASK 1915
A TON FOR
CITY COAL
Dealers Combine
and Send Bid
10 Aldermen
COUNCIL KICKS

Evidence of another coal combine
TO compel the city to pay alleged ex-
horbitant prices, came to light at a
committee meeting of the council last
night. Thirteen bids were received.
each for $6.75 a ton for Lehigh egg
coal in a 100-ton lot for use in city
hall and the police station. The al
dermen became disgusted with the
apparent extortion game of the deal
ers and decided to refer the subject
to a committee of the whole, where
ii will probably rest until thee ity
fathers cool off and Perth Amboy
coal dealers have had some time to
think matters over. Indications are
that there will be no division of the
order among the dealers.
The subject was the cause of
much discussion at the meeting last
night. Bids had been ordered adver-
tised for at the first meeting of the
council In July. They were for 100
tons of Lehigh egg coal to be deliv-
cred to city hall and the police sta
tion. The city fathers expressed sur
prise when the bids were opened last
night. The first was for $6.75 a ton.
The only comment on that was
some high eh?" Then another was
opened That was for the same
amount and there came more such
expressions. When the third bid was
opened some of the aldermen began
to smile Smiles increased in num-
Der and broadened as the other esti-
mates were opened.
1t became clearly evident, accord
ing to some of the aldermen, that
the retail coal dealers of the city
had again formed a combine, and
boosted thep rice with the belief that
each would receive a slice In that
way 1t was thought all the dealers
would be benefited and there would
be no throat cutting among them
for ,the benefit of the city 1t is de-
clared by some of the aldermen that
with honest competition the bids
ought to be considerably less than
the lineup received last night.

the opening was at hand. In the
place they found an improvised cigar
store, with an old showcase contain
ing cigars to the value of about 81.
Directly back of the counter hung
massive red portieres. They used
diplomacy in their Investigations and
found that the proprietor was New
Yorker, assisted by a local man, who
is we'll respected. The detectives in
sisted in a friendly way that a cigar
store would not pay in such remote
section back of the cemetery and If
it did it would not be policy to open
one with a few cigars in a case.
The proprietor and his accomplices
insisted through all such questioning
that there was nothing wrong in the
place. The detectives finally opened
up and confronted them with evil
dence as to how men had entered
the place on certain days. The men
in the store broke down and confess
ed to some extent that it was a
"house of bondage" The officers
learned there were three girls there,

A newly opened alleged dlsorderly
house in Donald avenue has been
closed and its illegal business
brought to an abrupt end through in
tervention of the police. The pro-
prietors and the three girls were
given twenty-four hours to get out
of the city by Chief of Police Patrick
j. Burke. The order was obeyed.
Some local men, alleged by the police
to have been implicated with New
Workers In opening the place, and
who are believed to be continually
on the lookout for an opportunity to
open houses of Ill repute here, are
under surveillance by the police.
Chief Burke has them shadowed al
most continually and declares he will
endeavor to send them to state prison
the instant he receives convincing
proof that they have taken wrong
step.
The closing of Donald avenues

on in a careful and painstaking way
by the police. While they had evil
dence, they did not deem 1t advisa-
BILE to make a sensational raid, 50
Detective Sergeants HUFF and Long
investigated and ordered the proprie-
tors to report at headquarters to
Chief Burke. What was there said
to them they will probably not
soon forget. Accompanying was the
twenty-four-hour order.
The police first became aware of
an attempt to open the place the
early part of this week when they
found "sQuatters" here from tho
metropolis. They shadowed them
and learned that house was going
to be opened in Donald avenue. After

CANNON HINTS
HE WOULD LIKE
ANOTHER TERM

1t is practically certain that the
office of internal revenue collector
will not come to MiddleseX county
unless Mr.. Cannon accepts it, In
event he refuses. it will most likely
go to Essex or Passaic, the latter the
home of Senator Hughes. The sue
cess of Congressman Scully has
given Mr. Cannon the opportunity of
securing the high position. His ac-
ceptance would not mean that the
internal revenue offices would be re-
moved from the federal building in
Newark, as they would in all proba-
bility remain there. They occupy
one immense floor and house a large

sioner, A. R. A. Overgaard, Alder
man in Fourth Ward
COMPLETE TICKET AUGUST 5TH
Committee Reports List OF
Names for Other Wards
County Chairman Groves
Makes Optimistic Speech
at Unique Meeting

More than half of the local Pro-
gressive party's primary slate was
filled last night at special meeting
of the Perth Amboy Progressive Club
when Charles w. Barnekov was
formerly elected a candidate for the
nomination for alderman at large;
George Wustefeld of Grant street, for
excise commissioner, and Anders R.
A. Overgaard, of Market street, for
alderman In the fourth ward. These
men were named by committee ap-
pointed by the club to select suitable
men to enter the local primary. The
committee named two or more candi-
dates for each office, except alderman
at large, for which Mr.. Barnekov had
previously been elected
R. r. Hoskins of High street, with
drew his name on the committees ex-
else candidate list in favor Of Mr..
Wustefeld; and Martin Oertel of 269
Goodwin street and Carl H. Looser,
of Market street, withdrew from the
fourth ward candidate ticket of the
committee in favor of Mr.. Overgaard.
The candidates, thereafter, for these
two offices were unanimously elected
by acclamation Of the club.
For the candidates to enter the
primary for nomination to run for al
dermen in the second and sixth wards
there were three each named by the
comnittee. AS a choice was neces-
sary between these men, 1t was de-
cided ITO postpone the selection of
candidates for these offices until Aug
ust 5, the next regular meeting date
of the club, so that the men named
by the committee can be considered.
The members of the club had an op-
portunity to nominate candidates, but
none were named save those present
ed by the committee. Considerable
discussion and differences Of opinion
as to the methods of electing candi-
dates ensued, and the procedure was
slow.
The whole nature of the meeting
was a precedent in politics here and
all progressives or independent ten
denotes were invited to be present,
but were not allowed to cast a vote
until they had been elected to mem
bership of the club. Four members
were elected last night.
Those named by the committee as
candidates for aldermen n the sec
ond ward were Augustus Rossie, of
Rector street; Nathaniel w. Pierce,
of High street, and Harry Braverman
of Fayette street. Those of the six
tn ward: Frank Barka of Hall ave-
nue.; John Petersen, of AL Penn
street, and Charles Richter, of 389
Ridgeley street. Mr.. Petersen with
drew his name In favor of the other
% two candidates mentioned for the
sixth ward. The committee selecting
the above names were as follows:

Progrssslves May Partici-
pate in Primary Under Lat
est Opinion But Must Use
Name of Roosevelt In Title
of Their Ticket
spsoia, to the Evening NEWs.

Trenton, July 19:-The opinion OF
Assistant Attorney General Gaskill,
just rendered to John ]. Slater,
county clerk of Passaic, on the ques-
ton of the right of the Progressive
party to use the word Roosevelt" "
Is not SO far reaching in it's effect
as was at first supposed. County
Clerk Slater asked Mr.. Gaskill
whether aspirants for Office who
claim to be members of the Progress
sive party have the right to use in
their petitions the designation:
Progressive (RoosevelD Party"
Mr.. Gaskill's decision is that II
the party having such designation
did not cast five per cent. of the vote
for assembly last November, 1t would
not come within the definition of a
party under the primary law and
would not be entitled to participate
in the primary this year, but would
have to nominate candidates by petit
ton.
AS a matter of fact, the Progress
sive party, which used the party
designation contained the word
Roosevelt" polled much more than
five per cent. of the. assembly vote
last fall, and SO will be entitled to
participate in the primaries next
September. 1t will be necessary,
however, for the party to use the
identical designation this year in
order to take part in the primaries.
The designation, Progressive
(RoosevelD Party" was officially
adopted last year by the Progressive
leaders after George B. Chenoweth,
who ran as an Independent Progress
sive candidate for congress in the
Second District, had stolen a march
on the regular Progressive leaders
and has filed his petition with the
designation Progressive Party"
Practically all of the Progressive as
sembly candidates ran under the
designation Progressive (Roosevelt)
Party" so that this designation gets
the benefit of the average Progress
sive vote for assembly, which was
89,694. AS this Is more than 25 per
cent. of the assembly vote last fall
there is no doubt of the right of the
Progressive (Roosevelt) party to
participate in the primary this year.
The opinion Of Assistant Attorney
General Gaskill as given to County
Clerk Slater is as follows:
You ask to be advised whether
aspirants for office, who claim to be
members of the Progressive party,
have the right to use the word
Roosevelt" in their petitions, as fol-
lows: Progressive (Roosevelt)
Party"
l understand your contention to be
that at the Chicago convention an
official party designation was adopt
ed. to wit, Progressive Party" and
that the word Roosevelt" is foreign
to the party name.
1t does not seem to me that this

Cannon choose to accept the position
of collector of internal revenue,
either Mr.. Gebhardt or Ely, of the
Board of Chosen Freeholders, will be

prediction among prominent Demo
Gratis of the county. 1t is stated
among Mr.. Gannon's friends that he

ering it's acceptance. They assert he

BODY
OF INFANT
MURDERED
Police and the
Coroner Work
on Mystery
SKULL CRUSHED

The police and coroner of this
city are baffied over the finding of the
mutilated body of a baby supposedly
murdered in a field on the southerly
side of the Amboy-Metuchen road,
about one hundred feet east of the
Florida Grove road. The infants
head had been crushed and the body
otherwise mutilated, according to
opinions of physicians who have
viewed 1t in Coroner James ].
Flynn's morgue.
The body was discovered by bows
while they were picking berries. They
found 1t wrapped in a mans under
shirt and woman's skirt. Former
Dog Warden Ole Olesen was notified
and he summoned the police. Cor
oner James J. Flynn found the in
FAINT had weighed about ten pounds.
1t was so far decomposed that he
deemed 1t necessary to bury 1t today
in Potter's field.
Coroner Flynn, Detective Sergeant
Huff and Patrolman Hartmann are
working ON the case. They have
questioned numerous persons In the
neighborhood in which the find was
made. Olesen told them he saw a
woman at the scene about five days
ago. Frank Flowers informed them
that he saw man and woman almost
at the very spot where the body was
found Thursday night. He says the
woman was crying and when ques-
toned as to why she was sorrowful,
she hung her head and made no
reply. The man said nothing.
The coroner's investigation thus
far has indicated that the infant was
four or five days old when killed.

PURSE THEFT

Efforts are being made to solve
the mysterious theft of a pocketbook
containing 50 and some valuable pc
pers. A colored woman, employed in
the home of Thomas b. Doe at
Lewis street, claims to be the loser.
She told the police yesterday after

its disappearance after a grocery
clerk had delivered some provisions
in the kitchen. The woman sum-

METUCHEN DOC POUND
DESTROYED BY FIRE
ssse'1. 10 sns EVENING gsws.

Metuchen, July 9.-Dissatisfac-
ton with the operations of Dog
Catcher Rosch Conkling Smith, col
ored, is believed to have lead to the
destruction by fire of the borough's
dog pound. The structure recently
erected, was completely destroyed
Thursday night. The dog catcher is
mourning the loss OF seventeen dog
tails, which may mean a financial
loss of s21.25 to him. He is paid
S1.25 for each canine caught and
killed and the tails were the only
records of proof. Dissatisfaction
against his work is declared to be
due to the alleged killing of dogs
with axes, clubs, poison and any
other available means.
