ting with the trustees OF the Christian

site on belmont street where the
church now stands. The church Of
tCials have been looking over several
sites in the city that they could use

Ing. An offer has been made by a COM
pauy to purchase the site. on which
they will erect "A large modern de-
partment store. Another offer has
been received from a New York syn
Gicate which wishes to erect a large
theater IN this city. IL IS also ru-
mored that q number OF merchants OF
this city have formed a company and

erect store and office building. One
of the trustees. when interviewed.
stated that offers had been received.
but that no definite action lad been
taken and that the site will not be

The trustees are of the opinion that

The present church was erected about
forty Years ago. and since that time
the congregation has vastly increased.

LEGISLATIVE PROBE OF
COAL BUSINESS DELAYED
rspecial to the Newark star.I

JERSEY CITY, N. J., June 6.-The
meeting of the committee of assem-
blymen to inquire into the existence
and practises of the alleged coal
combine, which was to have been held
today at the offices of Assemblyman
Charles M. Egan. majority leader or
the House, was postponed because OF
the ability of Assemblymen Elmer
son L. Richards, of Atlantic county,
and John A. Matthews, of Essex, to
attend. Mr.. Richards is convalescing
from serious Illness, while Mr.
Matthews, it was said, is in Maiden,
Mass. for a few days.
Mr.. Egan, who introduced the reso-
luton to authorize the probe in the
House, was appointed chairman OF
the committee by Speaker Taylor
The other members of the commit
tee. in addition to those already
mentioned, are Assemblymen Walter
l.. McDermott, of Hudson, and John
zisgen. of Bergen. The Legislature
provided for an appropriation of
81. 900 for the committee. The meet
ing will probably be held the latter
part of next week. Mr.. Egan said to-
day. The dissolution of the Newark
Coal Exchange will probably be in
uuired into.
