BURGLARS AGAIN
BUSY DOWN TOWN
Attempt Made. Last Night to
Break Into Store of
George Hunt Co.

Members of the detective bureau
today doubled their efforts to appre-
bend the safe burglars who success
fully operated in two business houses
in Washington street early Thursday
morning following bold attempt to
burglarize the sporting goods store of
the George Hunt Company, 29S Mar
ket street. during last night.
The detectives now believe that the
yegglnen who got away with about
500 from the safe of the Alfred Peats
Company, 233 Washington street, are
still in the city, and with this idea in
view finger prints found in the Hunt
store will be compared with those
found in Peats.
Lieutenant Tyler was notified at
police headquarters early this morn
to rob the Hunt store, and Detectives
Corbitt and Donnelly were sasigned
to the case.
They found that the thieves had
cut away a panel from the wooden
shutter on one of the rear windows
and had then cut out pane of glass
with a glass cutter and removed two
iron bars from the window, leaving
a space large enough for man to
pass through into the store.
The stock was not disturbed and
the police believe that the men were
frightened away before they accom-
plished their desire. Finger prints
were found on the glass taken from
the Hunt store, and these will be re-
produced and compared by Superin-
tendent Edward Schwartz, of the bu-
reau of identification with those
found in PeatS's store,
Lieutenants Ryan, Harris, McMa-
hon, Fohs and Detectives Conlon,
Donnelly and Corbitt are working on
the cases.

bondsmen have had to keep the bonds
alive ever since. Frank M. McDermit
explained to the chief justice in op-
posing Mr.. Dotto's application that
his client had written to him that she
did not care what he did about the
money; she didn't want it. He felt,
however, that he had no right to
consent to the cancellation of the
judgment.
He told the court that the young
woman was now residing in Foggia,
Italy, and that he understood she
had married a Count Piccarini. She
was a daughter of former mayor of
the town in which she lives. Anthony
Mast is a druggist with a store at

POLITICAL PICKUPS

The list of aspirants for the sur

trance of Francis Clark, the we'll
known building contractor, of this
city. Mr.. Clark is not only an avowed

half That Mr.. Clark is in earnest
about the matter is shown by The
fact that he has his nominating petit
ton already fully signed and attested

The quest for signatures was not
a long one and Mr.. Clark made it a
point not to ask any officeholder OF
employee of any city or county de-
partment, to sign the petition, limit
ing it to business men and citizens
not affiliated with any faction of the
Republican party. Mr. Clark has re-
sided in Newark for sixty-three years

the Republican party.
