Injunction Prevents
Funeral At MetucL1eI1
Man Prevented Brother from
Viewing Of Their Father
injunction Secured

METUCHEN, June 11-An injunc-
ton for which there is said to be no
precedent in this state, was signed
by Chancellor Robert Edwin Walker
yesterday, temporarily restraining
Edward Ardolino, of 38 Rector street
from carrying out the arrangements
for his fathers funeral because of
his refusal to permit another son Q
the deceased to view the remains
Charles G. Ardolino, of 40 High
street, brother of the defendant OBJ
tained the order staying the funeral
this morning through his attorney,
Morris Spritzer, of New Brunswick,
who laid the details before the chan
cellor in his chambers at Trenton
yesterday afternoon.
A final hearing on the order will
be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon,
at which time the complainant
hopes to obtain judicial permission
to view the remains of his father,
which are to be buried in the italian
cemetery at Fords. The chancellor
will be asked to set a date when
the funeral may be held.
The two brothers are very promi-
nent in the architectural world, they
having executed some of the most
artistic ornamentations on the sky
scrapers of the metropolis. The le-
gal battle according to Mr.. Spritzer.
follows a two year period of uh-
friendliness between the two broth
ers. during which time they have
not spoken.
Giovanni, the eightyseven year old
father, died Monday from a cere-
brai hefnoFrhage. He made his
home with the som Edward.
Mr.. Spritzer was in town last
night for the purpose of serving the
defendant brother with the order OF
the court.
Charles. ArdoIina. in his COM
plant, declared there had never been
any iiI-feeling between his father
and himself. He asserted further
that eight years abo he had paid his
fathers passage from Italy and had
to his support since then.
Last Saturday according to the
complaint, Charles learned that his
father was fatally i'll at the home of
Edward at the Rector street address.
Charles called and asked to see his
father. He alleged that this was
denied to him and that on the days
following he was also denied access
to his father.
1t is further charged that Edward
has given orders to the undertaken
who Is conducting the funeral. that
the body of the father be closely
covered and that the casket remain
unopened at the burial ceremonies
at the cemetery. contrary to church
customs. solely to deprive Charles

The complaining brother has ask
ed the chancery court to prevent
the burial until such time as the
court shall direct that the body be
inferred.

wet" forces came when State Chair
man Harry Heher was chosen as the
Jersey member of the resolutions
committee which will draft the ma
tional platform. Thus the ''wets'' at
the meeting were out-flanked and
their cause was lost even before the
meeting was well started.
Colonel Moses Greenwood, OF
Montclair, district delegate from the
tenth, moved an amendment to the
report of the nominating committee
so that Nugent's name should be
substituted in place of Mr.. Heher's,
This motion was howled down and
1t was declared lost by a vive voce
vote without poll having been
taken.
The test which showed the rela-
tive numerical strength of the Silzer
and the Nugent camps came when
a resolution was carried that the
unit rule" of voting for presidential
candidates should prevail among the
Jersey delegates at the national con-
vention.

ADVISORY BODY
WILL WORK ON
BRIDGE PLANS
Another Meeting Wednesday
at General Scott's Office
at Trenton
INSPECT VICTORY BRIDGE
Board Will Present Proposed
Memorial Feature to the
Legislature Next Year
INSPECT VICTORY BRIDGE

The initial step towards providing
tor the memorial features on the
new Victory Bridge which is being
built over the Rariran river here
was taken yesterday afternoon at a
meeting of the State Highway Com
Committee in the office at the Perth
Amboy bridge approach site. Gen.
aral Hugh l.. Scott, chairman of the
highway board. is asso chairman of
she advisory committee and presid-
I'd over the meeting.
As this was the first meeting of
the advisory committee the mem
bers were not familiar with the
bridge plans and these were ex-
pIained in some detail by Clarence
w. Hudson, the designing engineer
! o1 the structure. Mr.. Hudson point
I'd out that In designing the bridge
he had not been advised that 1t was
to serve as the state memorial to
the New Jersey men who lost their
lfves in the World War and conse-
quently he had not included any
special memorial features in the
plans. However, he said, the
bridge will be an imposing one in
Its simplicity of design and he was
opposed to making any great
changes in the architecture In order
to give 1t the appearance Of a me-
mortal. He suggested that II any
memorial features were to be added
they should be along the approaches
or at the point where the approach
starts at Smith street and Convery
Place.
Engineer Hudson also emphasized
the fact that the sub-contracts for
the bridge had been awarded and
much of the material already made
for use on the structure. If any
great changes were made. he said,
1t would mean a large additional
cost as these parts are now made
according to the original plans.
J. Logan Clevenger, secretary of
the advisory board. told of the agi-
tation carried on for some time to
have this structure embellished
with memorial features and of the
passage by the legislature of bill
designating the bridge as a Victory
Bridge. He told of the plans TO
extend Fayette street to Convery
Place and of the proposed bridge to
Tottenville which would have Its
outlet on Amboy avenue. the road
then continuing through Krochmal-
ly avenue to Convery Place which
will connect with the bridge ap-
proach. Mr.. Clevenger said he felt
<sure the state would receive the CO.
operation of the city in beautifyins
and improving the bridge approach.
The members of the highway
commission and those on the ad-
vistory board each entered into the
discussion as to what form the me-
mortal features should assume and
the question Of cose arose. AS the
highway commission has no money
to spend for this work it was I'M
possible to set any definite amount
to cover the cost of the memorials.
At the suggestion of Commissioner
Stewart 1t was decided to have the
advisory committee meet and decide
