of assaulting and robbing three
Cinnamon, will be made by Judge
Kersten and States Atty Hoyne.
When the case was called yester-
day in Judge Kersten's courtroom
Atty Charles F. Hills, representing
the Cinnamon, said his clients had
left the city and wished the case
dropped.
Asst States Atty Dwight Mckay
then moved that the case be dismiss

word came to Judge Kersten that
Flannery, through the use of money
and the influence of a prominent poll
tician, friendly to Mayor Harrison,
had caused the compliments to dis

The money was said to have been
raised by Flannery in the saloon own

ADMINISTRATION
POLICIES FLAYED
BY REPUBLICANS
Congressman Parker and Sem
ator Colgate Denounce Bank
ing Act, Mexican Program.

The national administration, from
the tariff issue to President Wilson's
Mexican policy, came in for sharp
criticism last night at the regular
monthly meeting of the Republican
County Committee. 1t was also Off
cia.ly announced that there would be
no overtures to the Progressive party
for the amalgamation of the two ro-
htical bodies. Former Congressman
r. Wayne Parker and State Senator
Austen Colgate, of Orange, were the
principal speakers. The meeting was
held in the headquarters, at Halsey
and Academy streets.
Mr.. Parker declared that 1t was not
the intention of the people of the
country to permit Congress to be con-
trolled by the voice of the man in
the White House. He declared that
the plan pursued In laying out of
districts under the provisions of the
banking law Is arbitrary. He said II
was not good policy to have the bust
ness credit of the country managed
by politicians. The banking law he
denounced as 1.-THE old sub-treasury
system"
Aside from political and economical
questions Mr. Parker stated 1t as his
conviction that should matters in
Mexico demand it, the State of New
Jersey would stand ready to man
to aid in the defense of the flag.
A resolution expressing regrets for
"the brave boys who have lost their
lives in the defense of the flag was
offered by Milton Crowley, of the
Fifteenth Ward, and adopted by a
rising vote.
81 do not think the working people
are satisfied under the new tariff, +"

ductory remarks. 81 do not like the
way things look. 1t is hard to sell

reserves where they found it most
convenient and now look at the new
regional districts. New Orleans banks
must place their reserve in Dallas

| lions must place them, not in Balti-
