COURT OF ERRORS HAS 80
CASES; ONE BOOZE CASE

TRENTON. Nov. 15:-with q
total of ninety-three cases listed, the
New Jersey Court of Errors and
Appeals commenced its November
term here today. There are but few
cases which are of great importance
among those listed.
one of the cases to be tried is that
of Max Neiberg. of Newark, who
was convicted with having twenty
gallons of whiskey in his possession
for the purpose of sale. 1t is also
alleged that Neiberg adulterated the
whiskey with wood alcohol and other
poisonous substances. After his trial
he was sentenced to three years in
the state prison at hard labor and
also was find $1,000. Neiberg is APP
pealing from the supreme court
which sustained the verdict Of the
trial Judge.
Another interesting case to be
argued before the highest state
court this term Is that of former
Mayor of Newark Charles p. Gillen
against the Public Service Railway
Company in which case the latter
was awarded a judgment of one cent
with costs. 1t is alleged by the COM
plainant, the ex-mayor, that he
boarded a trolley car operated by
the defendant company in Newark
and was unlawfully forced to pay
W. cents for a ride when just
previous to that day the fare had
been but six cents. Mr.. Gillen seeks
a judgment of one cent in his favor.
1t Is alleged in this case that the
Public Service company put into eff
feet on May S, 1919. an increase in
rate of fare without an order from
the Board Of Public Utility Commits
s%ioners. The judgment of the trial
court was upheld by the supreme
court. a
1t Is not likely that the court of
errors and appeals will require more
than a week or ten days to complete
its. November session.
