WOODBRIDGE VOTE
LIKELY ON MAY 23

r. WOODBRIDGE. May s.-Com-
mission government petitions. con-
tanning the names of 1.055 voters in
various parts of Woodbridge town.
ship. were filed last night with
Township Clerk Andrew Keyes. AL
though no official announcement
has been made as yet by the clerk
as to when the election will be held
it is generally believed that May %
will be the day, it being the third
Tuesday following the filing of the
petitions. The law stipulates that
the date OF the election be establish
ed in this manner.
The regular polling places through
out the township will be used by
the 4.S00 voters who are eligible TO
vote on this question, this being the
number that registered and voted al
the last general assembly election.
II is difficult to determine at this
time the strength of the opposing
factions. 1t is generally reported
that the Republican organization is
opposed to the move and that the
Democrats are solidly behind il. al
though few have made any state
ments which would give any light as
TO their attitude on the subject.
A close election is expected and
three weeks of strenuous campaign
ing is now looked for in the town
ship.

CABLE WORKS
APPEAL JUNE s
Siding Matter Will be Argued
Before Court of Errors on
That Date

According to information obtained
Underground Cable Company rail-
road siding matter from the supreme
court 10 the court of errors and ap-
peals will come up for argument on
Tuesday, June 6. Briefs for the city
and the cable company have already
been filed and Prosecutor Joseph L.
Stricken who represents Jehn Sea-
man, is expected to file his briefs by
May 26, as 1t is said that unless the
briefs are filed by that time the case
will be argued without them.
This case has caused considerable
sensation in the city and at the
present time much speculation is be-
ing INDUCED in as 10 what the out
come of the resolution offered al
the last meeting of the aldermen by
Alderman John ]. Clark to investi-
gate the action of the city attorney
in appealing the case from the su-
preme court decision will amount to.
IL is likely that the matter will again
come before the aldermen at the
meeting next Monday night as the
resolution failed to pass when voted
upon.
According to ex-senator Thomas
Brown. who represents the Standard
Underground Cable Company in the
court action, the city is duly bound
to protect the ordinance until it is
amended or repealed, the same as a
state or national law. From this il
would seem that the city attorney
acted rightly in appealing the matter
from the supreme courts decision.
When efforts were made to see Mr..
Stricken today he was not in his
office.

officials said no such request had
been received and intimated they be-

Senator Culberson continued to re-

fair. Miss Culberson, to whose
whereabouts there has been some
mystery. was understood to be at
the home of her parents today.

POLICE QUELL
BATTLE HERE
Two Men Arrested as Result
of Drunken BraWI--Many
Police Cases

The police were called to invests
gate two disturbances in the city last
night. Two men were arrested in
connection with one drunken carou-
sal that ended in a fight, while the
other affair, benefit society squab-
BILE, was settled without arrests.

old. laborer. who gave his address
as 519 Penn street and Ben Sicora,
twenty-nine. of the same address,
were arrested by Patrolman Mar
mon last night when they beat up

the two men entered his place. evil
IDENTIFY very much under the influence
| of "hootch." They seated themselves
and demanded liquor. Tarlowski re-
piled that he had no LIQUOR and then
he says he was the butt of an attack
that ended with his being kicked In
the forehead and knocked down. The
two men then went outside and one
of them pushed his fist through a
large paneoof glass. His hand was
severely cut and medical attention
by DR.. George w. Fithian was neces-
sary.
Tarlowski reported the above in
cident to Patrolman William j.
Keating. Oficer Marmon was later
detailed on the case and shortly
after the fight he arrested the two
men on charges of assault and bat
terry.

Bruck SIS.
Patrolman Joseph Gaydos was
called to 405 Inslee street shortly
before o'clock to settle a disturb
ance that grew out of a disagreement
between members of the Holy Mary
Hungarian Sick and Death Benefit
Society. There seems to be fierce
strife between two factions in the
society. Partisans of the two fac
tons were disputing last night and
Gaydos broke up the gathering with
advice to settle the argument In
court. He made no arrests.

up liquor law, amends the crime
act, and also the landlord and ten
ant law; second, forces men to in
criminate themselves in direct viola
