BURLINGTON WILL PAY.

Negotiations which have been under
way for years e. ended last Friday,
when the Burlington County Board OF
Freebolders appropriated its share Tor
the erection of an $4,000 bridge
across the Mullica River at Lower
Bank, which span is TO be constructed
in conjunction with Atlantic County.
Action was taken after a delegation
from Lower Bank informed the Board
that the present bridge is unsafe. and
that unless the county authorities took
steps 10 replace it the case would be
thrown into court.
The new bridge will be erected On
the Atlantic-Burlington County line;
the latter county prepared plans some
time ago for a structure costing s4o,-
600. but Atlantic County favored an
$50, 900 span. Subsequently a commits
sion, appointed by Supreme Court JUS
tice Black, to settle the question de
cided in favor OF the more expensive
project. The Burlington freeholders,
however. took no action on the matter
until last Friday.
Lack of funds has been given by the
Burlington authorities as the reason
for opposing the $4,000 project.

RANKIN FINED
AND UNDER BAIL
Waived Hearing on the Assault
Charge-Tried by Mayor for
Auto Law Violation.
DECISION is APPEALED

State Trooper Horace Rankin was
arraigned before Mayor Charles z.
Jackson on Friday afternoon on sew
eral charges, including assault on pa
trolman Henry Carlson and violations
Of sections OF the state automobile
law. On the assault charge Rankin
waived a hearing and was immediate
ly place dunder $3.50 bail by the May
or. This takes the matter before the
Grand Jury.
There was a large crowd of inter
ested citizens present TO hear the tes-
timony presented on the charges Of
violating the state automobile laws.
After hearing several witnesses, May
or Jackson imposed a nominal fine Of
SO on Rankin, who said he desired TO
take an appeal from the decision. The
usual formalities were observed in
granting the appeal.
Rankin was accompanied by his su-
perior officer, Captain William Carter,
Trooper George Tighe, who was with
Rankin on the day of the trouble with
Carlson, and another state trooper.
Contrary TO the advance rumors there
was no representative of the Attorney
Generals office present to represent
Rankin. City Solicitor Louis D. Cham
pion conducted the ease for Carlson.
The first witness called was former
Mayor Charles J. Adams. He testified
TO Rankin proceeding against the traf-
fc signal set by Carlson. He said
that after Rankin finally stopped his
car and as Carlson was e~ndeavoring TO
get the license number of it, Rankin
tried to start the car and push Carl
sen out of the way of It. He said
Rankin refused to show a license 10
Carlson, and when Rankin again start
ed the car and Carlson jumped on the
running board Rankin tried to push
him from the car.
Frank Ruffo said he saw the Rankin
machine shoot around the traffic sig
nal. After Rankin had stopped in re-
Spouse TO Carlsen's whistle signal and
was requested to return and take the
signal properly, he responded You
can go to H. | will not return and
make that turn" He said that after
the machine had again proceeded
some distance up Washington avenue
and again stopped, he arrived in time
to see Rankin replacing his dEaX2 re-
Walter A. Ennis, Jr., testified TO the
Rankin car skidding several feet and
TO Rankin cursing Carlson. He said
Rankin bumped Carlson al least twice
with the front of his automobile, as
Carlson was endeavoring to get the
number of the car.
Mrs. Valerie c~orroborated the testi-
mony of Adams and Rufo.
Carlson testified to Rankin violating
the traffic signal and 10 Rankin pull
ing a gun on him. He said that while
going to find Justice Mischlich, Rank
in drove the car at a speed OF from II
to so miles an hour.
Rankin made a statement in his v
behalf in which he. as a state police
man. claimed a right TO disregard
traffic signals. None of the main facts
testified to by the other witnesses
were denied by him. and the Mayor
then imposed the fine.
In addition TO these proceedings,
City Solicitor Champion has been IN
structed by City Council 10 prepare
charges against both Rankin and
Tighe and forward them TO the Super
intendent of State Police.
