Ey-State Senator Applies for
Injunction Against Com
pany Promoter.

Former state Senator James ]. Fraw-
ley alleges in an injunction application
on Supreme Cour Justice Donnelly's
calendar for a hearing to-day that he
is entitled to stock valued at $4,000 900
IN the Electro-Chemico Corporation,
controlling an electrolytic process for
sewage disposal, and that an effort Is
being made by Col John Peter Persch,
a promoter, to deprive him OF his stock.
He asserts that Col. Persch is about to
remove the stock from the state and
wants an order restraining him from
doing so and compelling him to give
up the plaintiffs share. .
Col. Persch, who has consolidated
breweries and railroad and gas cor
porations in the past, and who has re-
ceived more or less publicity on account
of matrimonial litigation, held an op-
ton on an electrolytic process and

ERROR OF TRAFFIC
 LAW DEMONSTRATED
State Must Prove That Warning
 Signs Installed Are Suitable

At present the newly drafted traffic ordinance prohibiting owners or op- orators of autom obiles from leaving their cars for more than five minutes between the National Bank corner and St. Marks church cannot be en- forced, according to a decision handed down by Judge John H. Kirkham in police court this morning when he discharged George Riley, arrested for a violation of this ordinance.
 Officer William c. Hart testified that on Monday afternoon Riley left an autom obile in front of the Ma tional Bank while he stayed in the building for more than fifteen min- utes Officer John J. King also tes- tifed to the length of time that the atuo was left standing in the pro- hibited district.
 Judge William F. Mangan at once moved for his clients discharge. He said the object of the city ordinance is not to set a trap to catch auto ists when they remain in this dis trict for over five minutes and he thought the officer on duty should warn them. rather than wait five minutes and then arrest them. He

 Ordinance Not a Law.
 'In the first place I don't think this ordinance is a law" said Lawyer Mangan.' The city charter says that all ordinances must be published once in a newspaper before they be- come effective. This particular para graph under which the prosecution takes place is only a section of an ordinance and it makes an entirely new ordinance out of the one to which it is added Therefore as the sec tion only was published, and not the entire ordinance, it is not operative until published"

It was because the Rube con- sented to reduction in the salary he was getting from the Giants that Robinson added him to the Superbas' rooster. Wilbert Robinson has been given credit for the development Of Rube MarQuard, and if the round pilot of the Superbas still possesses the old influence over the cratic southpaw he should take on a new lease of life. With Cheney and Mar quard displaying anything like their true form and the other members of the Brooklyn hurling squad retaining their early season form, the chances of the Superbas capturing the 'old flag" look very bright indeed.

 More Grounds Wanted.
 For next year I think it possible grounds ought to be opened in the Rockwell and Lincoln street school districts as these districts do not seem to be covered, and there ap pears to be large numbers of chill dren there, and need for playgrounds.
