FACTION POLITICS HINTED
Investigation of Local Coal
Situation Will be Started
Here Tomorrow Morning
When the Mackay legislative COM

When the Mackay legislative COM
mittee conducting the state probe OF
coal prices and alleged combines,
sits in this city tomorrow indications
at this time are, that only one coal
firm of the city will be called be-
fore it. This belief is strengthened
somewhat by the fact that only the
firm of E. ]. Dorsey & Son has been
subpoenaed to appear before the
committee up to this time. AS to-
day is holiday, it does not seem
likely that subpoenas will be issued
to the other firms at this time.
Rumor has it that factional poll
tics here is playing an important
part in the visit of the probe COM
mittee in this city. The rumor Is
strengthened somewhat by the fact
that Senator Thomas Brown. is a
membe of the committee, and 1t Is
known that the senator and the
Dorsey interests although both
Democrats belong to different local
factions.
When the various coal firms of the
city were questioned concerning the
probe and whether or not they had
received subpoenas to appear before
he committee the following INFORM
btion was obtained.
Those who obtained subpoenas
NE: z. J. Dorsey & Son.
Those who have not obtained sub
poenas are: Convery Coal Company.

The committee has already exam

Paterson, Asbury Park and other
titles in the state.
When it was first learned that the
kommittee would sit in this city the
yocal coal dealers expressed their
Willingness to open their books for
investigation of the committee so
hat the amounts paid and charged
BY them for coal would be known.

Headquarters for 3 Army
Reserve Units in This CITY

The recent orders of the War De-
partment directing the formation in
the state of New Jersey of the 18th
Division, Organized Reserves, have
now been so far complied with. that
it is possible to give the location of
the more important units of the di-
vision. 1t is known, from informa-
ton just received in this city. that
the headquarters of the division will
be at Newark. Regimental head
quarters 309th Infantry will be at
Camden, 310th at Jersey City, 311th
at Trenton and 312th at Newark.
Headquarters 307th Field Artillery
will be at Perth Amboy and 30Sth
F. A. at Hoboken. Paterson gets
headquarters 303rd Engineers and
Newark the 303rd Medical Regiment.
Other special troops are distributed
throughout the state.
The nearest company of infantry
to Perth Amboy will be Company l.,
309th Infantry at New Brunswick
and Companies X and NJ at Asbury
Park. Battery C. 307th +. A. is at
Red Bank. Perth Amboy receives
a company of the 303rd Engineers
and the 307th Sanitary company.
1t is understood that officers hold
ing reserve commissions are making
application for assignment to units
of their arm of the service nearest
to their homes, and that announce
ments will appear from time to time.
Service with the reserves does not
involve duty in time of peace other
than fifteen days training per year.
The members are not liable for po-
lice duties. and can only be called
into active service when congress de-
clares that a national emergency ex-
lists. At that time the members
join the division to which assigned
in time of peace. go into training,
and proceed to the front with much
the same personnel as they have
been associated with in the reserves.
The 18th has been chosen as the
New Jersey division for the reason
that New Jersey men were in the
majority in that numbered division
in France and their associations will
be thereby preserved.

ing in the annual Y. NJ. c. A. drive
for new members and renewals re-
port at a dinner which will be serv-
ed at 6 o'clock. Although the cap
tains were instructed TO report eV-
cry night, several failed TO DO so
last night with the result that the
first days total was not as large as
expected. The men and boys Sc
cured forty-nine members and the
women and girls forty-one, making
a total of ninety for the first day.
The mems goal for the weeks cam
paign is 500, while that OF the wo-
mems division is 400.
Many of the captains reporting
last night held back memberships in
order to make n big showing TO-
night at the dinner. The workers
are busy with the assignment cards
and the results, according to reports
received by General Secretary W. H.
War; are encouraging. Every team
member is requested TO be present
at 6 o'clock tonight TO partake of a
supper and make reports. No
speeches will be made and the
workers will not be kept much more
than an hour.

known as Team No. l, led the men
in memberships yesterday with ten
members. Team No. 5, led by Har-
ry Comings, reported eight. Teams
Nos. and 4, captained by Charles
NJ. Peterson and y. Christian Mel

The man who saw the Klansman
is Vernon Calender, colored, of 1888
Hall avenue, and in his report to
Officer John Riedy after the incident
he said that he was absolutely sure
he had seen the figure at close quar-
ters about 1880 o'clock yesterday
morning while on his way home
from work. Calender informed the
officer that he was very much fright
ened at the sight of the mysterious
white robed stranger. although no
effort to molest him was made by
the representative of the invisible
empire"
SO frightened was he, continued
Calender, that he ran home as fast
as he could and took refuge under
the bed. not daring to come out for
a half hour. When he had recover
ed somewhat from his fright he re-
ported the matte to Officer Riedy.
This is the second notice received
by the authorities in regard to the
existence of the organization IN this
cit, and it is believed that an inves-
tigation into the possible workings
of the Ku Klux Klan will be insti-
tuted shortly.
On October 4 Frank Pinkovich, of
334 Summit avenue, notified the
police that on the preceding night
he had perceived band of six white
robed mysterious figures gathered IN
the shadows near Lehigh Park. AL
though the alleged Klansmen did
not attempt to halt him Pinkovich
took flight to the nearest house,
where he organized an investigating
committee.
A few minutes later Pinkovich, ac-
companied by several friends, ap-
preached the spot where he had seen
the figures. They could see moth
ing suspicious this time. but called
out and asked the masked men TO
make themselves known. However,
the band had disappeared.
The incident of last night, being
the second in less than two weeks,
gives rise to the conviction that there
really is some foundation for the be-
lief that the Klan is represented in
Perth Amboy. Calender told a
straight story TO Officer Riedy when
he informed him of the occurrence
and there is little reason to doubt
the truth of his statement. The news
of the second appearance of the Klan
has spread about the city with con-
siderable rapidity and is being wide
ly discussed. Some are frankly
skeptical and some are derisive, but
others are accepting the rumor as
probable fact.

SOUTH AMBOY, Oct. 12:-The
meeting last night of the common
council with the mayor and city
solicitor disclosed the fact that the
Highlands Navigation Company were
not alone considering a ferry pro-
ject to this city. James Van Brunt,
representing the Jersey Coast Ferry
Company, met and disclosed plans
contemplated many months previous
wherein ferry service would be es-
tablished in this city. The latter
company, according to Mr.. Van
Brunt, has filed application with the
New York authorities for a fran
chise and was meeting with opposi-
ton from officials of the Baltimore
G. Ohio Railroad Company in the
state of New York.
John j. Scully, who represents the
Highlands Navigation Corporation
in this city, as well as Mr.. Van Brunt
asked that action by the governing
body of the city be deferred until
both ferry companies could meet
and discuss plans whereby some
agreement could be reached between
them.
No action on the matter was taken
and the matter as far as the city is
concerned now rests with the High
lands Navigation Corporation. which
firm has made application for the
franchise.
The site selected and which meets
with the approval of the city fathers
and the people of the city in general
is at the foot of Henry street at the

HEARINGS MAY Be HELD
ON HIGHER SCHOOL TAX

TRENgON, Oct. Assembly,
man John Y. Dater, of Bergen coun-
ty, today announced as chairman.
that the committee authorized by the
last session of the legislature TO
study the question of increasing the
mill tax and other subjects relating
TO the collection and distribution OF
school moneys, will hold series OF
public meetings on the subject IN
different parts of the state.
1t is very likely there viii be three
meetings, one in Jersey CITY or
Newark for North Jersey, one in
Trenton for Central Jersey, ane one
in either Atlantic City or Camden
for South Jersey. The exact date
will be announced later.
The present tax is two and three
quarters mills. 1t has been rumoreo
that there is a possibility or II being
raised TO six mills.
According 10 Assemblyman Dater.
the committee has already received
numerous communications from IN
viduals in every part OF the state
wishing TO appear before them 70
present their views. 1t is expected
that any attempt to change the pres
ent system will be strongly opposed
bv the counties of Essex and Hud-
son. A change would mean that the
two large northern ccSnties' share
Of the revenue would be reduced
They now receive large percentages
due to the fact that the distribution

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Giants
and Yanks were keyed up a semi
tone or so above normal today for
the seventh game of the worlds SER
les tied at three games all, by the
Giants to victory after week
of warfare.
They seem to think that tricky
something called "the break" in the
game would make its appearance
this afternoon and point out the ul-
innate victory. Whoever wins to-
day will be one victory away from
the throne. while the losers must
take two straight. Carl Mays will be
ent against the awakened Giants to-
day. Manager Higgins said, to be fol-
lowed tomorrow by Waite Hoyt.
"Shuffling" Phil Douglas is the like
ly choice of McGraw.
Should this big spit-baH artist be
put to work this afternoon it will be
the third time he opposed Mays. The
Yanks won the first, to 0. When
they met again. Sunday. the Giants
won, 4 to 2.
The advantage of power in the box
now lies with the Giants, Douglas
and Barnes have shown they can
halt the rush of Yank bats. Nehf
VIII pltch tomorrow. NenI losl TWO
games to the Yanks. mainly because
his team made only one run in
eighteen innings behind him.
Barnes will be left for the ninth
game. He rescued Toney on two
occasions and won out. The second
string fingers of the Giants have not
been used as yet.
On the other hand Higgins has
trotted out only two winners, Mays
and Hoyt, and the Giants VOW they
no longer worry over the underhand
shoots of Mays. Mays may have to
pitch the ninth game. If this con-
test is needed.
The probable batting order for to-
day:
YANKS-Fewster, If: Peck, IS;
Miller. CT; r. Meusel, RI; Pipp. 1b;
Ward, 2b: McNally. 3b; Schang. C.
