SEVERAL SHOTS FIRED AT
SUSPICIOUS ACTING MAN

Strange actions by a man shortly
after l O'Clock this morning in the
vicinity of Oak and Fayette streets
made Patrolmen Carl Monroe and
Paul Layden suspicious and follow
ing a chase, during which several
shots were fired at the fleeing man,
ne was finally found hiding in the
cellar of building at the corner of
amith street and Watson avenue.
EAs man was acting suspiciously in
front of the store of Harry Margo-
lius in Oak street, the officers said,
and an inspection by them of the
door showed that efforts had been
made to force an entrance.
The officers did rot see the man
attempting to get in, however. and
as a result disorderly conduct
charge instead of that OF attempted
burglary or of breaking and enter
ing was lodged against him when
arraigned before Recorder H. +.
Pickersgill this morning. He gave
his name as James Kennedy, of 3S3
Washington street, and said he was
only sixteen years old. although he
looked much older. He said he had
been locked out and had planned to
make a trip on an auto truck early
this morning. A fine of $25 or
ninety days in the workhouse was
imposed

highly strung neurotic tendency. or
who have just passed through some
great trouble, which has temporarily
deprived them of normal resistance.
Tho conditions of mystery and emo
tional strain which surround the
seances are particularly dangerous
for people OF this type. Their minds
are fixed on unhealthful topics: they
are induced to make every effort to
feel sensations, hear voices and re-
ceive messages from the world of
spirits.
In individuals of neurotic or hys-
terical makeup the step is all too
short from the seance to actual
illusions of sight. touch and hearing
and from the idea of direction by
some dead friend through the
medium of the ouija board to definite
delusions of influence and guidance.
In fact, 1t would be difficult TO i'm
agine conditions more favorable for
the development of a psychosis than
those furnished by repeated visits
to mediums and seances. with con-
slant morbid dwelling upon super

CENTRAL CARS
QUIT STATES
Other Lines Cut Down by
Lack of Equipment, But
Service Here Did Not Pay

Conditions in the power house of
the Jersey Central Traction Com
pany at Keyport, which company
operates trolley cars in Perth Am
boy, South Amboy, Keyport, Mat
avian, Keansburg, Atlantic High
lands Middletown mad Red Bank,
remain the same as they were a
week or more ago when the service
given by the company was cut down
and some cars discontinued, due to
the fact that the equipment is in
such condition that it will not fur
nish the power necessary to oper-
ate the cars.
Superintendent Hitchcock said to-
day that 1t is impossible to get a
promise of the delivery of the neces-
sary repairs and that until repairs
do arrive the service will continue
as it is at the present time. He was
unable to say how long this would
be.
The disseminating of the operation
of the Jersey Central Traction Com
pany cars from State and Smith
streets, this city, to Woodbridge
creek and on the Keansburg beach
line, was not entirely due to the
conditions at the power house, but
according to superintendent Hitch
tion of cars on these lines did not
pay. The Woodbridge creek cars
never made but fifty per cent of the
operating expenses, according to
the superintendent and the Keans-
burg beach cars only made about
one-third the expenses. Under
these conditions 1t did not pay the
company to continue the operation
of the cars.
The superintendent pointed out
today that the people using the
Woodbridge creek cars are we'll
taken care of by the Public Service
cars and there was really no neces-
sity of the Jersey Central Traction
Company continuing the Wood
burg service is taken care of by the
bridge creek service. The Keans-
bus lines as the cars have been dis
continued on this line because peo-
pie preferred to ride in the buses
and not the cars. which made 1t un-
profitable to operate the car.
According to Superintendent
Hitchcock, there is a possibility
that the car operating between Mat
avian and Freneau may also be dis
continued as he claims that this line
also does not meet the running ex-
penses. At the present time the car
is operating until $3.50 in the morn
ing and is then laid off until 2:S0
in the afternoon from which time it
runs until O'Clock at night.
According to Superintendent
Hitchcock, the Monmouth and Mid
dlesex Light Company is having
considerable trouble in obtaining
supplies. There are about fifty
houses in the territory covered by
the company, which have been wired
for electric lights and due to the
fact that the company hasn't foot
of wire in stock it has been impos-
sible to give them service. 1t is
expected that supply of wire will
be received this week at which time
men will be put to work at once con-
Meeting up the houses with electric
ity.

STATUS
STILL IN DOUBT
Nothing Can be Said at Span
as to What the Future has
in Store for the Bridges.
GET MANY INQUIRIES
Importance of Structure Made
Manifest Still Able to 0p-
crate Draw With Difficulty

No definite time for the closing
of the state bridge between this city
and South Amboy can be ascertain
ed from the men at work upon 1t.
The situation is still in doubt and
continues to become more doubtful
each time it Is opened. The diff
Guilty met with by both men and
machinery in the closing OF the
draw, and the discomfort travellers
incur while the struggle is in pro-
gress. is definite proof that some
action will be necessary before long.
The men now at work shifting
weights on the structure have no in
structions other than to keep the
bridge in operation as long as man
and machine can do so. A glance at
the condition of the draw shows the
South Amboy end to be almost two
inches below the level of the ap-
proach and Is in such a shape that
the Jersey Central Traction trolleys
have given up through service and
transfer their passengers across the
span.
This morning great confusion was
noticed by this condition. Autos
lined up beyond both ends of the
bridge waited for over half an hour
for the draw to be closed and then
found the congestion of passengers,
ItrolIeys, trucks and busses to be al
most an inpenetrable mass.
Experiments are being made in
shifting of weights from the South
'Amboy end to this end of the draw
yet conditions this morning seem to
indicate that the structure still con-
tinues to sink.
New Road Ready In 3 Weeks.
With the uncertain question as to
whether the state bridge will be
closed or not still in the public
mind, comes the announcement from
South Amboy that the new con-
crete road over the old Pennsylva-
mia right-of-way will probably be
opened to travel in three weeks.
The final strip of road-bed Is be-
ing laid at the intersection of the
straightaway from the bridge, and
with the construction of the two
feet of stone shoulder on each side
from there to Broadway. the entire
work will have been completed, and
the hole-in-the-wal made only re-
membrance. The retaining wall part
way down the hill from Broadway
has been finished and there is only
little sidewalk construction from
there to the bridge to be laid. The
road is of ample width to allow safe
passing and Is of q thickness OF con-
struction that should stand up well
under the unusual amount az travel

Pending Since Last Summer.

WASHINGTON. July 20. - De-
mands for substantial wage increases
for nearly all classes of the 2,000,0 900
railroad employees have been pend
ing since late last summer. These
demands. first presented at different
times TO the Railroad Administra-
tion's Board on wages and working
conditions. were unsettled when
government operation OF the rail-
roads was ended. and in turn were
referred to the Railroad Labor
Board, which was created under the
Transportation Act.
Some few of the classes of or
ganized employees have not pressed
formal demands but have insisted
that their wages be increased if ad
vances were granted other related
classes of workers. The principal
demands of the leading unions fol-
low:
Brotherhood of Railroad Train
men: Passenger brakemen be in
creased from S120 a 30-day month
to $3.50 for 26-day month: baggage
men be increased from $124.S0 for

month; assistant conductors be in
creased from s144 for 30-day month
to S179 for 26-day month; freight
brakemen in valley territory be in
creased from S4.0S TO $5.0S a day
with ten per cent. increase over
these rates wherever the grade ex-
ceeds is per cent; yard foremen or
conductors be increased from $3.50
to $40 day; yard helpers or brake

TRENTON, July 20. - The ouiia
board and "fads" in spiritualism are
having their effect upon people of
neurotic temperament and unless the
popular taste turns TO some more
wholesome diversion than found in
these things the state hospitals for
the insane are destined to receive

Insane Asylum in the annual report

a state insane hospital to a certain

seasons of financial panic. religious
revivals, war conditions and what he
terms as the Lighter fads and

NO FEAR OF BIG EXPLOSION
DURING THUNDER STORMS

Many people of this section are
made uneasy by the known fact that
there are explosives stored as close
to the city as Raritan Arsenal and
are decidedly worried during an
electrical storm of some violence.
Charles Bloomfield, of Metuchen,
whose residence is within a very
short distance of the arsenal, gives
out an encouraging statement when
he says that any harm done cannot
possibly spread beyond a narrow
limit in the grounds.
Directly after a storm of unusual
strength several weeks ago, Mr..
Bloomfield made a visit to the arse
nal and observed the damage that
was done Fully $50 trees in the
magazine area were either struck by
lightning or blown over by the wind
and the most westerly warehouse
down on the docks and which was
filled with explosives at tie lime
had large section of its ROOF ripped
out by a bolt of lightning without
any damage to its contents.
Mr.. Bloomfield wishes to point
this out as almost definite proof that
the effects from storm would only
be minor at the most. The affair CT
last August when an entire maga-
zine went up with only the death
of the few men within its immediate
neighborhood. proves almost unde-
niably that the worst that could
happen would endanger the lives of
only those employed about the mag
azines.
The camp was built with the idea
of safety foremost. Each magazine
is a safe distance from its neigh
hor and douu vhera fhe INT was
formerly stored they are surround
ed with water most of the time.
The guncotton is kept out where
it can be rained upon and thus kept
in an undangerous condition. and
besides all this the arsenal is well
guarded with both mounted and un-
mounted men and the lights about
the magazines keep the area al
most as bright as day
