The first battalion of the End In
fantry has completed it's move to the
new quarters in the cantonment and
the End battalion is now moving into
the quarters vacated by the 1st bat
! talon. The enlisted men of the End
battalion will be most comfortable in
their permanent quarters and are
we'll worthy of the change for the bet
ter inasmuch as that battalion has,
been under canvas back of the off

here in January, 1918, from Schofield
Barracks
The 3rd battalion will not move over
to the cantonment for some time yet

completed for about two weeks. The I
tents of the End battalion will not be
taken down, as they will be needed to
house the large detachment of recruits
that is to arrive here by the transport
next due from. San Francisco. |

NEWARK FIRM
THREATENS SUIT
AGAINST HUDSON
Hill & Mount May Bring Action,
Following Freeholders' Award
for Ballot Boxes.

Hill & Mount, lumber dealers, of
the Essex building, this city, have
threatened suit as result of the
award yesterday by the Hudson coun-
ty Board Of Freeholders OF a contract
to furnish 800 ballot boxes to Wood
house & Co.. of Jersey City The
Newark concern offered to furnish
the boxes for 81 each. The bid of
the Jersey City firm was IS box.
After the award was made Frank
Hill, of the Newark firm, offered to
buy the contract from Woodhouse &
Co. for 1920. Later. he said today,
he called up the office of the county
clerk in Hudson county and offered
to furnish the boxes at the contract
price and give $4,000 of what he
would receive to charity.
Mr.. Hill Will meet representative
of Woodhouse & Co. in Jersey City to-
day and renew his offer to buy the
contract.
Mr.. Hill says the sample ballot box
he submitted would cost more to
manufacture than the box the Jersey
City concern offered to make
John p. Noonan, assistant clerk In
Hudson county, however. takes an
opposite view.
You could stick your finger
through the box offered by Hill e.
Mount" he said. There is no ques-
tion but that Weodhouse & Co.'s
boxes are better"
