Form New Organization

Dissatisfaction with the treatment
received from the parent organiza-
ton is given as the reason for New
ark Herd, Loyal Order of Buffalos,
seeding from the order. 1t was said
by an official that the local herd did
not have as much influence in the
affairs of the society as the MEM
bers felt was due them.
The members of the herd have
started the INDEPENDENT Order of
Buffaloes, spelling the last word of
the title with an "e' instead of the
way the old society spelled 1t. The
local branch of the new lodge is
known as Newark Lodge No. 1 and
has membership of 800. 1t is to be
incorporated and an effort made to
start lodges in other cities.
The officers are Grand ruler

ruler Frank M. Headley; past grand
ruler Charles e. Garrod; chaplain,

tary, Frederick A. Jorgensen, jr.;

State Engineer Bensel
Says Responsibility Rests
With Highway Supt. Reel

BERNARDSVILLE Jan. 19.-John
A. Bensel, State engineer, was found
yesterday afternoon at his home. He
said he had very little to add to the
statement of facts already set forth
1t was true, he said, that the Dix
Good Roads Commission met on DC
tober %, 1912, and approved about
100000 of expenditures on contracts
and that the meeting was very brief.
He went on to say that the action
of the commission was purely formal,
and that the responsibility for the
merit of the work on the roads lay
with the State superintendent of
highways, c. Gordon Reel.
Under the law the supervision of
highway contracts is subject for
athe sole consideration of the state
superintendent of highways. On the
day mentioned many expenditures on
contracts We're brought up for formal
approval by the highway commission.
You are to understand that such con-
tracts often came up simply as a mat
ter of form, and usually after pay
ments had been made by the State
comptroller. The comptroller want ed
the approval of the commission in adj
dition to that of the actual workers
in. the highways department.
I'VE would approve them only when
they had received the approval of the
men in active control of the work in
the field. They came to us with the
approval of the deputy superintend-
ent of highways. The board was in
no position to know anything of the
actual work, for it had nothing to do
with the actual work of the admins
tration."

old. of 172 Bank street, a licensed
auctioneer at 6S Market street, was
held in $500 bail on misdemeanor
charge when arraigned before Judge

Court.
Barron was charged by Charles
Laughlin, of 43 Pomeroy street,
Kearny, with having sold him a
watch and knife worth $2S" and the
former guaranteed for ten years, for
SO 25. The complainant contended that
after he had paid for the watch he
was refused the ten years. guarantee
and that when he started to insist
on the guarantee or the refund of his
money he was surrounded by a num-
Der of men who appeared to be con-
nectedl with the establishment" and
was forced into the street.
He then visited police headquarters
and reported the affair to Chief of
Police Michael t. Long, and Captain
Frank Tuite, of the detective bureau,
assigned Lieutenants Keogh and DAILY
to arrest Barron.

TO HOLD HEARING
ON SHIPPING RATES
Utility Commission Will Meet to
Make Changes on Inter-
state Shipments.

A hearing for the purpose of fixing
a more consistent rate for interstate
shipments under the provisions of the
Interstate Commerce Commission
laws will be held in the Court House
on January 26 by the Board of Pub
lie Utility Commissioners. Every ex-
press company operating in the State
will be represented and the commits
sioners have also extended an invita-
ton to various manufacturers and
shippers to present their views on in
trastate shiment rates.
The new schedule of rates which
the Interstate Commerce Commission
has ordered the express companies
throughout the country to recognize
will go into effect on February /.
The express companies have Of
flcially notified the Public Utility
Commissioners that they will comply
with the orders of the Interstate Com
merce Commission insofar as classi-
fication, billing. routing and receipt
ing are applicable to intrastate ship
ments. They have also filed with the
| commission application for permits
sion to put into force after February
new rates the commission has ordered
the express companies to apply to in
terstate shipments.
The companies have further stated
that they will at the nearest prac-
ticable date introduce the modified
sub-block system for interstate ship
ments in New Jersey. They declare
the change will be made before
April l.
h.
airy rs, at p. m. for hearing in this
matter, the hearing to be held in the
freeholders' room at the Court House.
The board will give opportunity to
any shippers or representatives of
civic organizations which may desire
1t to be heard.
| The express companies state that
| they will have at the hearing rate
| clerks competent to quote compara-
tive express rates under the present
tariff of the Interstate Comerce Com
missions tariff and the Interstate
| Commerce Commissions tariff as it s
| to be modified.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion's tariff is applicable to system
of blocks, each block being fifty-miles
| square.
! An apparent objection to the block
| system, insofar as shipments within
the State are concerned, is that the
rate from within one block a short
distance from the dividing line sepa-
rating it from another block to a
short distance the other side of the
| dividing line would be the same as
the rate between extreme limits of
| two blocks.
| 1t is with the view of obtaining the
adoption of a system of SUBJ blocks,
SO that the rates may bear more
consistent relation to the length of
the shipment, that the Public Utility
| Commission took this matter up with
the express companies, resulting in
the announcement to the board by
the companies and the fixing of the
time and place for hearing

Trial of William COrduan,
Alleged Wife-Slayer, Is
Postponed to February Is

The trial of William Corduan,
charged with the murder of his wife,
Emma Corduan, in their home on
Walnut street, on July 90 set down
before Judge Harry v. Osborne today,
has been postponed until February 15
The postponement was made neces-
sarying owing to the fact that Cor
duan is now under examination by DR..
William H. Hicks as to his sanity Dr.
Hicks has not as yet completed his
examination.
Since being confined in the county
Jail Corduan's actions at times have
been cratic and last week Prosecutor
Louis Hood ordered an examination
in order to determine his mental con-
dition before bringing the case to trial.
Former Assistant Prosecutor Fred
erick r. Lehlbach, counsel assigned by
the court for Corduan, made no objec-
ton to the postponement today.
