In getting ready for the fall and

kind the merchants, always with an
open eye toward trade extension,
cater especially to out Of town buy

FOUL PLAY
IN SOUTH AMBOY

Because of an apparent mystery sur
rounding the dea-h of Merritt G Weart,
the twenty-five year old Brooklyn man
who was believed to have received ia
tai injuries as result of being struck
by a Pennsylvania railroad train in
South Amboy Wednesday night, an in
vestigation is being made by detectives
of the prosecutor g office, and coroner
Eugene j. Mullen has notified Stillwell
& Mason, South Amboy undertakers,
not to permit the removal of the body
from their morgue pending an autopsy.
Pennsylvania railroad officials, it is
understood, have had detectives on the
ground with the belief that the man
died as the result of an assault in a
nearby saloon and not from being
struck by the midnight train.
Weart, who was married and who
lived at Clifton Place, Brooklyn, had
been at Asbury Park in the after
noon to see his mother, who was
stopping at hotel there. He had
been camping at Morgan. Just as
the Pennsylvania railroad "Owl"
passed through this city at 1859
o'clock, Weart was found lying on
the westerly side of the southbound
track at the Augusta street crossing,
his face lacerated, fracture at the
base of the skull, and a bad contu-
sion under the right eye.
The engineer of the train main
tains that his locomotive did not
strike the man, and an Investigation
was subsequently started by the rail-
road officials. The Rippowam hotel,
where several brawls have occurred
lately, is under suspicion, and the
railroad detectives are working on
what they believe is clue that will
connect the mans death with an as
sault in that place.
1t seems probable that the man may
have met his death as the result of at

HALTS WORK ON 7 STREETS

Regardless of whether the Board
of Aldermen choose to award the
contract to oliver w. Ramsay or the
Hastings Paving Company, the work
on seven proposed pavements In the
city will be tied up in court proceed
ings, it was stated among aldermen
here today 1t was declared that IL
the council awarded the contract for
the seven streets in question to the
Hastings concern, Mr.. Ramsay would
bring legal action, and that II the
city ventured to give the work to Mr..
Ramsay, the Hastings Paving Com
pany would start a court action to
prevent him from doing the work.
The streets concerned are Hall
avenue, High street, Watson avenue,
Commerce street, Brighton avenue,
First street and Catalpa avenue.
They will be paved with asphalt
block, except for a block or SO on
Commerce street. The Hastings
concern has had monopoly on as
phalt block pavements here, it is
claimed, and 1t was with Joy to
many, including the Republican al
dermen, that local contractor un-

who are in power, are inclined to

as was shown during and after the

efodno that he did not comply with
the specifications and requirements
in bidding. Mr.. Ramsay insists that
he did comply with all requirements,
that his affidavits were in proper
form and he demands that he. being
the lowest bidder, be awarded the
contracts in question. 1t is reported
upon good authority, including in
formation from aldermen, that no
matter which contractor procures the
award, the other will start legal pro-
ceedings in all effort to have the
work held up For this reason, it is
believed, the paving work will be
held up. perhaps for long time.
Under arrangements made We'd
nesday night, members of the Board
of Aldermen were scheduled to ac-
company Mr.. Ramsay yesterday to
view some work executed by his
company None of the members of
that committee could be found here
today and indications we're that they
continued their investigation today.
Whether work done by Mr.. Ram
says concern will suffice as a demon
stration of his ability to install as
phalt block pavements here, is a
question. Indications are, according
to remarks of some Democratic al
dermen, that it will not. Members
of the street committee, all of whom
are Democrats, have expressed a de-
sire to see what asphalt block paving
work Mr.. Ramsay has executed for
five years previous to this time.

AWAIT DETAILS OF
SINKING FOR ACTION
Washington Considers Situa-
ton Serious, but Wants
Facts Before Taking Action.
Special by United Press Wire.

Special by United Press Wire.
Washington, Aug. 20:-The Wash
ington administration was keeping an
absolutely open mind today on the
Arabic case. Nothing whatever would
be done or said officially, it was stat
ed, until the state department has all
the facts in hand.
Even after all the evidence has
been gathered, it was pointed out,
explanation may be forthcoming
which will bear materially on the sit
uation.
The outlook was considered very
serious, so much SO that there was a
general hesitation to put into words
what looks like the natural next de-
velopment if unofficial reports of the
torpedoing of the Arabic were sub
stantiated by official accounts of the
affair.
The fact that two Americans were
supposed to be dead was looked upon
as calculated to arouse public opinion
greatly, perhaps to an extent which
would embarrass the administration
in sticking to the policy of GOODNESS
and deliberation it plans.
1t was emphasized in official cir
cles, however, that even without loss
of American lives, an unwarned at
tack on merchant vessel with Amer
leans among its passengers could not
be interpreted as other than ~delib-
erately unfriendly."
There was an official disposition to
depreciate the suggestion that, at the
worst, the Arabic affair meant war
between Germany and the United
States Germany, of course, it was
stated, would be given every chance
to tell her side of the story before the
administration made up its mind.
One thing, it was said on high au-
thority, was certain, the administra-
tion will do everything in its power
to avoid trouble with Germany of any
kind. Not only was it stated are the
administration heads themselves OPP
posed to war, but they believed the
country is opposed to it and they Will
resist every tendency in that direc-
ton to the utmost.
The Arabic perhaps was not enti-
tied to consideration as an unarmed
ship.
A merchantmen, under convoy,
said a state department official, who
suggested the question, loses its
status as an unarmed vessel 1t be-
comes liable to submarine attacks
without warning. The administra-
tion was known to have taken the
point into account in its calculation
concerning the policy it must adopt
as a sequel to the liners destruction
by a German undersea boat.
The issue, it was said, was one of
facts-was the Arabic. though with
out a convoy when attacked within
the zone of convoy's protection?
