SCHEUER STORES
IN BANKRUPTCY
FOR SECOND TIME
Receiver Named on Application
of Two Local and One New
York Creditor.

For second time the Scheuer
stores have gone into the hands OF
q receiver. The assets this time are
placed at $1,000 and the liabilities at
$1,000. Federal Judge John Rellstab,
of the United States District Court
in Trenton, today appointed Samuel
l. Kessler receiver to administer the
estate and continue the business for
at least five days subject to an ex-
tension of the time limit. The re-
cefver was appointed on application
of john Rosenbaum, representing two
local creditors and a New York firm.
The present firm operating the
Scheuer stores is known as IS.
Soheuer & Sons, Inc" 1t was formed
after the original firm of S. Scheuer
q Sons had been declared bankrupts.
Mrs. Rita K. and Mrs. Lucie K.
Scheuer. wives of two members of
the original company, purchased the
assets of the bankrupt company last
May for $42, 900 and Immediately took
possession and continued the business
as a corporation.
Albert and Samuel Scheuer were
also interested In the new corporation
1t understood. The firm also had
the backing of wealthy relatives in
Paterson, but it is understood this
cuppOTL WAS WilnuTdMn dDout lNO
months following the fling in the
local district courts of several suits
against the corporation.
The new company continued the
business in the Park Place store and
In another store located on Ferry
street. These two stores had been
conducted at a profit by the receiv-
ers of the old company.
The administration of the Scheuer
estate and its final settlement proved
to be quite expensive and the litiga-
tion ate heavily into the proceeds of
the sale of the Scheuer stores.
Philip C. Lindeman arS John c..
Eisele, the receivers, asked for an al
lowance of $1,000: Bilder & Bilder. as
attorneys for the receives, asked for
an allowance of 5000 and $3.50 addi-
tional as attorney for the petitioning
creditors. The appraisers put in a |
claim of $1,000. The receipts from |
all sources during the receivership |
were s517, s43. and the disbursements

Freebooter Steck Would
Make Wholesalers and
Drunkards Do Hard Work

Freeholder Fred c. Steck, one of
the Democratic minority of the
Board of Freeholders, will submit to
the board today plan calling for
the establishment Of a home for
inebriates and wife deserters, where
the inmates will be compelled to
work at hard labor. Mr.. Steck be-
lieves by this plan much of the
drunkenness in the county will be
done away with and that wife de-
serters will cease leaving their
families.
The plan has previously been sug-
gested, but has never been given seri-
Gus consideration by the freeholders.
Mr.. Steck's plan, 1t is believed, will
meet the fate of all such matters
when submitted by q minority mem
Der, and be laid on the table indefi-
nitely.

WOULD RECT|FY
THE PAROLE LAW
Charities Aid Assn Framing
Bill to Place Power Back
With inspectors.

The State Charities Aid Associa-
ton Is at present working on a bill
to present to the Legislature to rec
tify the present parole law and place
the power of parole back with the
State prison inspectors. They have
consulted with judges and lawyers
high in authority on the status Of
the present law and have high hopes
of having their bill put through.
In speaking of the proposed bill
today c. L. Stonaker, secretary of
the State Charities Aid Association,
and one of those foremost in the
fight against the present law, said:
Il am not sufficiently versed In the
intricacies of the New Jersey law
as yet to know what our parole laws
really are, but 1 am studying on the
subject and find them bad in many
respects.
1.-THE indeterminate sentence, law
passed In 1911 provided for the parole
of men sentenced under that act, and
the board of prison inspectors was
constituted the board OF parole.
Nov to take care of parole of
prisoners sentenced previous to the
time when the indeterminate sentence
law went into effect, that law gave
the Court of Pardons power to COM
mute such sentences by fixing a max
imum term, and then such prisoners
could be paroled after one-half of
that maximum term had been
served" he continued.
Last year, however, a law was
enacted which, in its title, declared
1t was an act constituting a board of
parole, regulating the parole of in
mates of the prison. Yet in the body
OF the act 1t states that it was for
prisoners serving definite term or
terms, and for life prisoners.
This board of parole consists of
the keeper, the physician and the
chaplain. 1t took the parole work out
OF the hands of the board Of inspec-
tors, as provided in the indeterminate
sentence act. Now 1t must take law
yers to determine whether the act of
1913 destroyed the paroling power of
the board of inspectors, under the in
determinate sentence act, or whether
1t simply provided a board of parole
for prisoners serving a definite term
or life sentence.
1.-The State Charities Aid Association
would like to undertake to withdraw
the power of parole from the execu-
tive officers of the prison and restore
1t to the board of inspectors, and is
now working upon a bill for that
purpose We believe that authority
must be concentrated in the board of
prison inspectors so that somebody
can be definitely held responsible for
prison management in all its phrases
The trouble is how to prepare such
a Dill In view of the confusion as to
what really happened to the indeter-
| inmate sentence act of 1911 by the
passage Of the parole act Of 1913"

To Hear Argument in Suit
to Eject City from Land

Argument on a demurrer filed by
City Attorney Herbert Boggs to a
suit in ejectment against the city will
be heard before Judge DUNCAN In the
Circuit Court tomorrow. The papers
in the suit, filed yesterday by A. Les

right to two four-foot strips of land

the time Adams street was extended
past South street, the land was con-
demned for 100 feet in from the south
erly line of South street, it is con-

Instead of taking 100 feet the city
took 104 feet, and since that time has
continued to occupy the ira four
feet. Prices clients are the w. r.
