MAYOR At ODDS
WITH HIS AIDES
Gregory Not in Accord With
Acts of Fire and Police
Commissioners.

From an outside source it has been
| learned that differences have arisen
between Mayor Julian A Gregory. of
East Orange. and Fire Commissioner
Nathan A. Baldwin and Edward O..
Wieters, former fire commissioner,
over personal bills submitted by the
latter two. Messrs. Baldwin and
wieters claim the city is indebted to
them to the amount of over $50 for
"carfares, telephone calls and in
cidentals," for the year of 1913.
Mayor Gregory instructed Assist
ant Auditor Francis A. Gilbert to
have the fire comm 'ssioners itelr1ize
their expenses, but 1t is said that
they refused. The executive then de-
clined to approve the bills, and he
is said to have vetoed the resolution
passed by the commission author'5-
ing the payment of the expenses. Mr..
Wieters's term expired at the first OF
this year, Mayor Gregory not having
reappointed him. His bill is for SS5,
and cites the amount of what it cost
him for the stenographic work of the
commission and personal expenses.
Mr.. Baldwin claims $50.
When communicated with this
morning, the latter declared that he
Considered mis- bill was itemized suf-
ficieiltly, and that he was eptitled
| to the money without further argu-
ment. Mr. Wieters is out of the city
and is not expected home until Sun
day.

PREVENT
AID TO LABORER
DYING IN STREET
Sewer Workman Injured in Ac'
cident Allowed to Lie in
Cold for an Hour.

With his head badly battered when
struck by a swinging steam shovel.
and with blood gushing from the
wounds inflicted, Vito Tedesco. thir-
ty-eight years old, of % Garside
street, this city, was permitted to lie
In the street in Nutley yesterday for
more than an hour after the acct
dent that resulted in his death.
The refusal of friends to allow the
man to be carried indoors pending
the arrival of physician is believed
to have fastened his death. The
blood froze on the unfortunate mans
head and face. Nutley police are to-
day conducting a rigid investiga-
ton.
Tedesco. employed as a laborer in
the building of the new Passaic val
ley trunk sewer, started from the
f1ume as the whistle sounded late
yesterday for quitting time. He was
about to emerge from the ditch when,
it is said someone gave the signal
to Aloysius Bauchmeyrr, engineer. to
swing the huge bucket. 8auchmeyer
threw open the valve and in an in
slant the bucket was moving.
Unconscious of any danger, Iedesco
began to climb out. His head bobbed
up Just as the heavy bucket was pass
ing. It struck him and rendered him
unconscious. One of the first to ar
rive after the mishap was Rev. Will
lam L. Cunningham. rector of st.
Mary's r. c. Church, Nutley. The
priest gave conditional asolution to
the dying man.
John Hawkins, a coal dealer, whose
office is near the scene of the accident,
witnessed the mishap. He wanted to
have the injured man carried into his
place. Other laborers who had gath
cred would permit no one to touch
the unconscious man. For over an
hour these men watched the blood
freeze on the head and fee Of the vic
tim.
DR.. Alfred Jackson, the first physi-
clan to arrive, ordered Tedesco re-
moved to st. Mary's Hospital. Pas
sale. He died there this morning
without regaining consciousness.
The accident is the second to happen
in Nutley since the work OF building
the fiune in that section was begun.
A few months ago the swinging
bucket struck man and knocked him
from his seat on a wagon. He was
thrown beneath his rig and the wheels
passed over his chest, breaking two
ribs.

WANT MORE LAND
FOR PLAYGROUND
South Orange Commission
Would Purchase Part OF
Field Clubs Property.

Advocating the enlargement OF
cameron Field playground on tht
grounds that its size is inadequate
to meet present requirements. the
South Orange Village Board of Play
ground Commissioners would pur-
chase q large part of the South Or
ange Field Club property. Unless
the field is enlarged the present max
imum age limit of those who will be
permitted to make use of the grounds
will be reduced from eighteen to fif-
teen years. the commissioners assert
in Z report to the village Board OF
Trustees,
The commission : allege that they
are embarrassed by reason of mad
equate room for maintaining the
present scope of the playground.
! hey state hat under present cond!-
lions it is impracticable for the older
boys to use the baseball diamond
without seriously interfering with the
activities of the younger children,
and as result a recommendation is
made that the village Board of Trus-
tees take such steps as may ultimate
y secure the extension of the play
ground to Mead street on the north.
Not only would this additional space
afford the room necessary for the
older children. but it would provide
an entrance for the large number of
children living to the north of the
field and not necessitate their going,
as at present to the South Orange
avenue entrance by such shortcuts
as the Lackawanna railroad tracks
on the east and the swamp Line
rolley tracks on the south.
II is Nha contention of he To-
sioners that the rapid increase in the
population of South Orange shou d
serve further to emphasize the Wis
dom of such a recommendation.
Should the village authorities ac-
quire the property which the play
ground comm 'ssioners recommend the
nurcahss OF, the South Orange Field
Club golf links would be deprived of
the present ninth hole. With the ex-
tension the playfield would be one OF
the largest and best equipped resorts
Of its kind in the Oranges.
The average daily attendance at the
playground from April to November
was 245, according to figures com
piled by Custodian John II. Nc
Gruther. This includes Sundays and
stormy days. when very few, IL any
children visited the field. There were
five days when the attendance ex-
ceeded 400 persons and one day wher
more than 800 attended. The smallest
attendance on any one day was 40
on September 49, and the largest was
somewhat over 500 on August 80. This
'argest attendance for any one month
was 9,22S. for July, and the smalles
| 1889. for September. The total at.
| tendance for the three months from
May TO October 81 was 29.129 Thes,
figures were obtained by actual coun'
of those present at 3 p. IN. each day.
| The total cost of acquiring ant
equipping Cameron Field has beeI
sl2 1888. and the cost of acduirin,
and building an approach to the f1el.
was $4,000 o. The maintenance Yunt
fer last year was $17S453 of whscI
1883 Al was expended, leaving a bal
ance of $25f 10. 1t Is estimated tina
SO 167 will be necessary for maintain
ing and further equipping the play
