MAYOR URGED To
DROP JUDGE WOLF
FROM THE BENCH
Common Council Declares New
Criminal Court Is Waste
of Public Money.
SALARY MOVE KILLED
BY FINANCE COMMITTEE
Republican Members May Have
Made "Bonehead" Play by
Casting Vote.

Following the action of the finance
committee in refusing to appropriate
funds for the Third District Court,
the Common Council last night
passed a motion asking Mayor
Thomas L. Raymond to remove Judge
H. Edward Wolf from the bench.
The motion was introduced by
Majority Leader Mark Phillips. Re-
Gently the Common Council received
letter from the Sons of Erin local
organization, complaining of the con-
duct of Judge Wolf in recent cases
brought before him in court.
Alderman Phillips as chairman of
the finance committee moved that
Mayor Raymond place the rubber
stamp" on the appointment of Judge
Wolf. OF course you all know what
l mean by the rubber stamp said
Mr.. Phillips. THE mayor. as We are
led to believe, has the blank resig-
nations of all his office-holders. We
do not want Judge Wolf and the city
does not need him. There is no need
of third court.
THE Democrats side in with the
, Republicans in their cry of economy.
3 This, therefore, is real economy. ]
mean the elimination of the third
city court
1t Is said that this is tIe first time
in the history of the city that the
Common Council has publicly asked
for the removal by the mayor of any
city office holder
Previous to the Common Council
session the finance committee held
a short session. Alderman Charles
W. Littlefeld moved that the salary
of Judge Wolf and his clerks be paid
Alderman Lee moved that the res
olution be placed on the table. This
plan was affirmed. The Republican
members voted mo"
No Reconsideration.
According to the rule of the city
manual, the Republican aldermen,
by voting against the measure, cam
not move for reconsideration, for
their original vote was against the
tabling of it. Thus the motion to
pay Judge Wolf will remain dormant
in the finance committee, unless one
of the Democratic members care to
have 1t reconsidered. 1t Is believed
that the minority members pulled
another bonehead play by voting
against the measure.
The Democratic members of the
Common Council claim that the
mayor can show his sincerity in his
plea for economy if he eliminates the
third city court. They declare that
the office was made by Judge Wolf
when as an assemblyman he had a
bill pushed through the Legislature
creating the third judgeship for New
ark. He received the appointment as
soon as the bill became law.
Alderman Phillips said that the
finance committee will not appro-
pirate one penny towards the salary
list for this court. "The Republicans
have been preaching economy for the
past year. We are also preaching
from the same book, and SO, as not
to disturb our plans, we will not pay
for services that the city does not
demand,
statistics prove that the position
is not needed. It is just another
berth made to gain political capital" !"
added Mr.. Phillips. THE Democrats
will not stand for the move"

j. s. MOVE FOR
PEACE MAY Be
MADE IN FALL
Pope's Appeal to President Not
Expected to Bear Fruit
Immediately.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4.-Late fall
or early winter may see an American
| move to restore peace in Europe.
This intimation WAS from high
official source today.
Pope Benedict's appeal to President
Wilson to use his good Offices with
Europe's belligerents would not bear
fruit Immediately, it was stated, but
with the lull in fighting expected upon
wintes's approach ii was understood
on good authority that the president
thinks the time may be ripe for
definite action.
The chiet executive will not reply to
the Pope's peace plea, 1t was stated
authoritatiVely today. the explanation
being given that his hollness's COM
munication required no answer or
even an acknowledgements, having
been delivered in person by Cardinal
Gibbons. to whom the president gave
the necessary Acknowledgement.
Unless the vatican or Cardinal Glib
bons makes public the papal COM
munication, it was said it will not be
given out here.
Despite pessimistic expressions
from London it was the official view
here that, a general peace discussion
having been started, there is good
reason to believe the agitation will
continue until something tangible is
developed upon which President Will
son can found another overture to the
fighting countries.
Some international experts thought
there was a fair chance that Ameri-
can negotiations with the British
concerning the order in council would
lead to an opportunity for fresh offer
for mediation.

ROME, Sept. 4.-Pope Benedict
Yesterday expressed pleasure over
the fact that the diplomatic negotia-
tions between the United States and
Germany had resulted in a promise
from Germany to modify her SUBJ
marine warfare.
The Pontiff said that President
Wilson, having Shown both groups
of billigerents the fairness, firmness
and good will of the American gov
ernment. could now address them
with authority ard probably induce
them to take the preliminary steps
which would gradually lead to ne
gotiations for peace.
The Pontiff was gratified to learn
of the cordiality that marked the con-
versation between President Wilson
and Cardinal Gibbons on Thursday,
when the cardinal delivered to the
President in Washington, a message
from Benedict XIV dealing with
peace.
His Holiness said today he hoped
everybody, both in Europe and the
United States would be convinced
that his constant prayer is for the
ending of the war, and that his work
in this direction is entirely disinter
ested being inspired only by the
teachings of Christ and his love for
humanity.
He added that he would be ready
to give the whole support of the
Catholic Church to the person, in
stitution or country that undertook
the noble mission of ending the war

BERLIN, Sept 4. (by wireless to

CHINA MAY. Y.SUPPLY
 BEEF TO ]. s. TROOPS
Contractors Willing to Compete for Army Order in Philippines

Correspondence of the Associated Press.S
 Peking, Sept. 30.-China will proo- ably supply the American troops in the Philippines with fresh beef after this year. Major Hugh Ganegher of the United States army and several Veterarlans recently made visits to different parts of China for the pur- pose of inspecting beef animals and determining whether Chinese beef is suitable for the American army, which is very particular about the quality of meat supplied to it's men.
 Contractors in China have signified a Willingness to compete for the army contract in the Philippines. As the ustralians, who have been supply ing fresh beef to the United States troops, will not be able to compete next year for the contract because of the embargo Great Britain has placed on the exportation of beef, it is like ly China will land the beef contract in Manila.
 Cattle Not As Large.
 Chinese beef cattle are not as large as the cattle which have been sup piled from Australia. The Chinese animals dress only about 45O pounds each, but are said to be fair grade of grass-fed beef. Manchuria and Shantung Province are the chief cat tle-raising sections of China. Russia is now drawing large quantities of beef for its army from both of these sections. Beef cattle are shipped on hoof from Tsing-tao in Shantung Pro- vince to Vladivostok. Before the war there was a small packing concern in Tsing-tao but it is not operating now.
 Facilities for slaugh tering are also limited in the Manchurian cities near the grazing lands. The American army prefers to have it's beef killed before it reaches the islands, because of the difficulties of shipping live an- imals into the tropics and the quar- antne troubles liable to arise out ot such shipments. However, 1t may be necessary for the Americans to change their specifications in order to obtain the required meat. Want Embargo in China. Within recent years there have been several agitations in China for an embargo upon the exportation of beef animals. The complaint has fre- Quently been made in various pro- vinces that meat eXportations raised the price of cattle so high that if was
