BROOKFIELD GLASS co. NOT
BANKRUPT; F. s. LOCKE is

An error was made in the headline
over a dispatch from Trenton yes
terday telling of the bankruptcy pro-
ceedings of Frank S. Locke, of Old
Bridge. The headline enormously
stated that the Brookfeld Glass
Company, of Old Bridge, was bank
rupt. This is far from being the
case. The Brookfield Glass Company
as far as we know, is a prosperous
concern and thoroughly solvent.
The petition in bankruptcy was filed
by Frank S. Locke and purely his per
sonal affair and concerns him alone.
The mistake in mixing the Brook
field Glass Company with the affair
was due to the fact Mr. Locke Is the
superintendent of that concern and
the dispatch from Trenton so stated,
although in no way involving the
company in the court proceedings.
In writing the headline for the arti-
Gle the name of the company instead
of Mr.. Locke, was inadvertently
used. The EVENING NEWS regrets
the mistake and is glad to make this
correction in order to remove any
doubts as to the financial standing
of the concern, which has been
given this unfortunate publicity.

Note on Hesperian Case.

Spectai by United Press Wire.
Berlin, via The Hague, Sept.
%: - The Admiralty has sub
mitted to the foreign office a memoir
andum declaring positively that no
German submarine attacked the A.
len liner Hesperian. The Admiral
tvs memorandum suggests that pos
sibly a British mine intended for the
destruction of German "U" boats
sent the Hesperian to the bottom off
the Irish coast.
The Admiralty informed the TOR
eign office. it was learned today, that
the last of the German submarines
operating in British waters on the
day an explosion wrecked the Hes
perian, has reported. No submarine
attacked any liner answering the de-
scription of the Hesperian. the Ad-
miralty reported, and no submarine
was in the vicinity of the Hesperian
when the explosion tore open her
side.
Submarine commanders reported
they sighted scores of mines floating
in the Irish sea, off the Irish coast.
These mines, it was stated, apparent
ly were strewn for the purpose of
sinking German CT" boats. The Ad-
miralty memorandum is understood
to have been delivered to the foreign
Office yesterday or the day previous.

litical Union of New Jersey arrived

on October 10. The campaigners,
who are now in this city and will re-
main until Wednesday, have made
campaigns in Asbury Park, Red

Brunswick, Passaic, the Oranges and
Hoboken. They received great en-
couragement in Hoboken having had
LOO men present at one of the fac
tory meetings.
The meeting to be held Wednes-
day, will be advertised by means of
handbills, which will be distributed
at each meeting. The first meeting
was held last night at the corner OF

men were well satisfied with cesults
and will hold one of the two meetings
which will be held tonight, at that
place. Speeches will be made at the
various factories in this city during
the noon hour each day, the Pardee
plant being the first to be visited
Speeches were made this noon at

tions throughout the county. | wish
to state just as forcibly as l can that
this is not so. There have been va
rious organizations that wished to en-
dorse my candidacy and, while l ap-
preciate the confidence they feel to-

only endorsement l wished was the
endorsement by their votes on pri-

forty signers of my petition in New
Brunswick requesting them to meet
me in order to perfect working

surely no harm was done by doing

my defeat would not be personal

"As to whether Mr.. Florance or

served for the people to answer.

My Lyon Gives Speech.
In the course of his speech last
night, MIR. Lyon said: Now that We
have these new members the ques-
tion arises how best to take care Of
them. You must not think that the
secretaries of the local organization
are the Y. NJ. c. A. They Will do ev-
erything in their power to make this
undertaking a success, but YOU men
are the organization and it is your
duty to stand by the secretaries and
do every little thing you can to help
the organization. 1t will be "A sad
day when the Y NJ. c. a. stops get
ting the boys of this city, giving
them a chance in life and it is in our
power to keep them interested once
they do join"
Campaign Manager E. J. Hock en-
bury said, IF the association does not
take care of these new members TO
the best of it's ability there will be
the largest slump in membership a
year hence ever seen in Perch AM
boy, but | believe the secretaries
with your help will see to it that all
are kept interested"
General Secretary War; tha1ke1
all that had worked for the cause
and promised TO do everything posi-
BILE with the help of the other secre-
taries and the organization to take
care of the new members. He
thanked the Ladies' Auxiliary and
Mrs Oliver Ramsay. the chairman,
for the splendid work done during
the campaign and for the co-opera-
ton with the men workers.
John K Bryan, general secretary
of the campaign, was given three
rousing cheers for the splendid work
done for the association. All other
chairmen and secretaries made short
addresses, most Of them wishing to
congratulate those working under
them or all of the workers for the
almost impossible, as many thought
this undertaking was, when it was
begun.

teams, Divisions A and B having two
apiece, were tied for second place.

members in way of amusements, men
have been working during the past
week getting the four large bowling
