ALLIES UNITE IN MOVE
AGAINST EX-CROWN PRINCE

LONDON, Nov. Is (By The Asso-
ciated Press) Lord Crewe, British
ambassador to France, will inform
the allied council, of ambassadors in
Paris today that his government is
prepared to join the allies in a col
lective note to Germany condemn
ing the return of the former German
crown prince as inimical to the peace
and order of Germany and as an in
fraction of the punitive clauses of
the treaty of Versailles.
Great Britain, however, will not
go so far ~ to associate herself with
any demand by the allies for the ex-
pulsion of the kaiser's heir as the
government believes it would be
futile to make such a request at this
juncture.
Lord Crewe also will tell his am
bassadorial colleagues that the Lon
don government is ready to renew
it's demand, in cooperation with the
allies, that Germany shall grant
greater security of the inter-allied
commission of control and that there
be stricter observance of the dis
armament clauses of the peace
treaty, but he also will point out the
difficulties the Stresemann cabinet, in
the present state of disruption in
Germany. would have in meeting all
of Frances demands in this respect.

county that this is so. A very proml-
nent Essex Republican at the State
House this week declared that had
Nugents organization gotten out the
Democratic vote on Tuesday Novem-
Der 6 the G.. o. p. assembly ticket
would have gone down to defeat.
The answer to this in the minds
of some is plain. Nugent must be
given more recognition" When did
an Essex county Democrat during
the last ten years get a big state
ment appointment" is an interesting
question propounded here. The
query would seem to explain the
failure to win in Essex. Nugent may
be tired battling for victories in
which other state leaders grab all
the glory and patronage.
Four out of the last five governors
of New Jersey have been Democrats.
Outside of the county offices, such
as judges, prosecutors. tax board
members and minor places which
could not be bestowed elsewhere,
what has the Nugent organization
been given as a reward for its part
in the four gubernatorial victories.
At that some of the places mentioned
were not filled by representatives of
the regular Democracy of the county.

State Democrats Must
Deal With Jas. Nugent

TRENTON. Nov. 15:-If the
Democrats in New Jersey hope to
win future victories there must be
more recognition of James r. Nu
gent in a practical way. This is a
lesson which the recent election has
taught in the opinion of some poll
tical observers. If Nugent had car
ried Essex county with his twelve
assembly candidates, as it seemed
probable before the balloting of last
week that he would, the Democrats
would have had thirty members in
the 1924 House, thus making the
political strength in that body a tie
and there would have been at least
partial vindication for the Silzer
administration. With the eighteen
Democrats elected in the other coun-
ties, Essex dozen votes would have
balanced the assembly evenly.
But the Democrats didn't carry
Essex for the assembly and now cer-
tain leaders in other parts of the
state are limiting at treachery on the
part of James II. Nugent. 1t seems
to be conceded that there Is at least
an acme of truth IN the contention
that the Democrats in Essex failed
to work as hard as they might have
in the last election. 1t is admitted
even among the dry yictors In the

Former Congressman L. Frank
Appleby, of Asbury Park, will be
a candidate in the Republican pri-
mary next September for the nomi-
nation of congressman. Mr.. Appleby
informed the Evening News today
that his hat is in the ring, the of
fetal announcement of his intention
to run for the nomination having
been made yesterday afternoon at
the meeting of the Monmouth Coun-
ty Republican Committee meeting in
Freehold. The announcement was
made by Mr.. Appleby, following his
report as chairman of the campaign
committee on the success of the re-
cent campaign in Monmouth county.
In announcing his intention of en-
tering the contest for the nomina-
ton and reelection as congress
man, Mr.. Appleby stated he had
done so at the suggestions of friends
in Middlesex. Monmouth and Ocean
counties. He declared that he will
run for election on his record as
a member of the siXty-seventh con-
gress. He pointed out the fact that
he was beaten by present Congress-
man Elmer ii. Geran, by only $40
votes out of a total of $4,000 in the
district and felt that his activities
looked upon by the voters of the
district.
1t would seem as if the "Fates"
were playing into the hands of Mr..
Appleby, for although Congressman
Geran was elected more than a year
age, as yet he has had no oppor-
tunity to take part in shaping the
destinies of the nation as congress
has not been in session since he was
selected by the voters of the third
congressional district to represent
them.
1t is likely that congress will meet
in about three weeks time and this
will give Mr.. Geran the first oppor-
tunity he has had to appear on the
floor of the house, If Mr. Geran
follows the old rule of the house of
representatives that the new mem
! bers for the first year at least,
should be seen and not heard, it is
likely that he will be considerably
handicapped in a run for reelection.
Indications at this time are that
when Congress meets it will only be
for a short session and this fact will
also have a tendency to restrain the
people at home" from hearing
from the congressman which might
be possible under a longer session.

PARK BOARD PLANS TO
HAVE SHADE TREES PLANTED

A meeting of the Park Commits
sion was held last night with a full
membership present at which time
plans were talked over whereby the
board could have planted at least
1000 shade trees along the city's
streets next year. With the abolish
ment of the shade tree commission
this work comes within the scope
of the park board and the local COM
mittee will endeavor to secure an
appropriation for 1924 from the al
dermen which will make possible the
carrying out of this work in beauti-
flying the city's streets.
Members of the board spoke in
dignantly of the privilege taken by
the Core Joint Pipe Company in
erecting their pipe building plant
on the city park property without
first securing permission from the
park board. The members pointed
out that the park board spent con-
siderable money at this park in lay
ing out an athletic field and run
ming track for the high school. The
secretary was notified to instruct
the pipe company that it must fur
nish a bond assuring the board that
it will leave the park property in
Just as good condition as it was be-
fore the company began operations
there. The pipe made by this com
pany will be used for the trunk
sewer to be laid as part of the grade
crossing elimination work here.

FOUR MEN KILLED BY
TRAIN AT CROSSING

NEWARK, Ohio, Nov. 15:-Four
Columbus men were killed this
morning when the automobile in
which they were riding was struck
by Pennsylvania train No. 81 at
F'razeyburg, northeast of here. The
men were on their way for a days
hunt.
They were Henry Campbell, Oscar
Norville, A. u. Turner and Harry
Watson, all of Columbus. The men
were from twenty to thirty-fiye years
old.
Mayor J. Cors of Frazeyburg was
the first to arrive at the scene of the
accident and assisted in Identifying
the dead. He then called the coro-
ner at GAINESVILLE and notified author
tiles at Newark.
The men left Columbus early to-
day for a days hunting and were
driving with curtains on the automo-
bile, and it is assumed they did not
see the approaching flyer, which is
due in Columbus at $3.50 A. NJ.
The bodies were scattered along
the track for DISTANCE of several
hundred feet.

TALK ON "SHADE TREES"
BEFORE LIONS CLUB

"Shade Trees" was the subject OF
an interesting address given at the
regular weekly luncheon of the
Lions Club today by Carl Bannwart,
superintendent of the shade trees
division of the park commission of
the City of Newark, a position that
he has held for the past nineteen
years.
In his talk Mr.. Bannwart pointed
out how necessary shade trees are
TOR the health and declared that one
of the best methods to reduce the
death rate is to promote the plant
ing of shade trees.
In Newark, Mr.. Bannwart said
shade trees are planted on private
property by the commission for the
small sum of $3.50, which is the
only amount ever paid by the prop
erty owner. If the tree needs at
tention it is taken care of by the
commission and should it die or be
destroyed another tree is planted in
its place without extra charge. In
closing Mr.. Bannwart described the
difference in the various kinds OF
trees.
Horace Crowell was chairman OF
today's session.

Take Finger Prints Here

Owing to the crime wave which
is now sweeping over this part of the
country, Mayor Wilson has issued
orders that every person making ap-
plication for q revolver must have
his finger prints taken, same to be
kept on record together with his
application for a permit. A move
was made in New York recently to
check up on the number of persons
having revolver permits and Mayor
Wilson followed suit at that time,
His secretary has made an alpha
betical list of every person to whom
the mayor has issued permits and
copies of this list will be given the
police from time to time so that they
might also know whether or not
those carrying concealed weapons
are legally permitted to do so.

Seek Two i'm Brooklyn

NEW YORK, Nov. 15:-Two men,
one a former bank employe, the
other drug addict, were sought to-
day by the police in connection with
the staying yesterday of two messen-
gers of the West End Bank in
Brooklyn and the theft of $43,60
they carried.
While these men, whose names are
known to the police, are believed to
have had no part in the actual COM
mission of the crime, slender clues
found by the investigators were said
to point to them as "tipsters', em-
ployed by the bandit slayers to in
form them of the movements of the
messengers.
Twenty suspects were taken in
custody last night. Five of these
were held until this morning and re-
leased after their fingerprints failed
to show comparison with the bloody
stains found on the body of the
bandit automobile which had been
abandoned two hours after the
crime.
The district attorney took a hand
in the investigation today, ordering
all witnesses of the murder and rob-
berry to his office for questioning.

skentlcism In France

PARIS, Nov. Is (By The Associa
ted Press) The reports from Ber-
lin that the government is consider
ing the advisability of abandoning
the Ruhr and the Rhineland to their
own devices are received with great
skepticism in French official circles.
1t is pointed out that Berlin, while
it would be glad IL it could shift the
burden of financing and provisioning
those territories to the shoulders 1, /
| the allies, cannot be unaware of the
disastrous impression the abandon
ment would make upon the popula
ton.
"If the reports really come from
official quarters said a spokesman
for the foreign office, "the intention
must be to frighten the allies by
holding up the prospect to them of
having a big job in caring for the
wants of the Ruhr population. The
Intention, however. will not be car
ried to the point where the allies
would really be obliged to substitute
themselves for the home government
and say to the local inhabitants.
Since you are abandoned by your
own government we will see that
you do not suffer-"
is that if anything could make the
separation of the Rhineland and th.s
Ruhr from the Reich certain and
permanent such action as the Ber-
lin reports say is intended would do
it. Private advices received in Off
cial quarters say the Ruhr popu1a
ton already is aroused by such re-
ports from Berlin and is loudly out
spoken in condemnation. The most
general comment in the Ruhr terri
tory, according to these advices,
runs:
'If Berlin deserts us the least the
German government can do is to
leave us free to deal with the all
lies"
Abandonment of the region by
Berlin would bring on a grave crisis
it is admitted for the allies would
require little time to prepare for
the emergency. In the end. how
ever. it is considered such action
would do far greater harm to Ger
many than to the allies.

BERLIN, Nov. 15-The opponents
of the Stresemann ministry are maxi
ing political capital of the reported
change of the governments policy
toward the Ruhr and Rhineland, and
it seems certain they will bring the
issue before the Reichstag when that
body reconvenes next Tuesday.
The governments decision to let
these territories shift for themselves,
at least while they are occupied, was
made known in official quarters last
night when it was announced that
after November 25 the Reich would
no longer be able to meet the un-
employment bills in the Ruhr and
Rhineland.
In the event that political pressure
does not force change in the policy
of the government, it is believed the
local authorities in the occupied re-
gions will be empowered to deal with
the French and Belgian regime, thus
making the future of the areas de-
pendent upon such agreements as

CONE JURY OUT
10 MINUTES
Fourth Trial Depends Largely
Upon Federal Judge Lynch
on Motion Now Pending
ON CHARGES Of BRIBERY
Verdict in First Trial May be
Set Aside and Case Finally
Ended
ON CHARGES OF BRIBERY

NEWARK, Nov. 15.-Whether
Sam Henri Cone, former field chief
In the New Jersey prohibition unit
will. be compelled to stand trial
for the fourth time largely will de-
pend, it is understood on Federal
Judge Lynch's decision on motion
now pending on granting the former
dry chief a new trial on the con-
yiction of last June.
Cone was found guilty by jury
in Judge Lynch's court yesterday
afternoon of giving a 500 bribe to
Wilbur Dey, a Federal prohibition
agent, to protect a gang of Middle
sex county bootleggers.
The jury deliberated forty-five
minutes before returning its acquit-
tai verdict. In the first trial before
Judge Lynch last June, Cone was
found guilty of bribery, and in Oc-
tober at Trenton before Judge Bo-
s,dine, a jury acquitted the former
Hlry chief of another charge of brib-
ing a Federal prohibition agent.
A week ago w. Holt Apgar, oil
Trenton, Cones attorney, made ap-
plication before Judge Lynch al
Newark to set aside the first con-
viction and grant the defendant q
new trial. The court heard argu-
ment, but declined to render a de
cision until after the trial of the
third indictment.
1t is understood that the district
attorneys office may move the SEN
tence of Cone next Monday at New
ark. If the motion for a new trial
is denied by the court, and sentence
is imposed, it is understood that an
appeal will be taken to the United
States Circuit Court.
II is also understood that If the
verdict in the first trial is set aside
that in all probability the other
pending three indictments will no'
be moved for trial.
When the jury announced Its YER
dict of mot guilty" yesterday, Mrs
cone, who was present during the
entire trial, burst into tears. Cons
did not take the stand and after the
defense had closed it's case, th'
former dry chief owing to Ill healtf
was compelled to leave the cour
room and rest in an adjoining Of

This also, it is pointed out, would
place a preponderant share of the
responsibility for the peoples fate
upon the shoulders Of France and

A dispatch received in London last
night by the Central News agency

ported a semi-official announcement

ments on the ground that France

and that therefore Germany could
not observe the pact.
