hold as the youth is said to be husky chap. Those bringing the com plaint claim that Grancia was beat en on the hands with blackjack and that his mother when she came to her boys rescue was roughly handled. 1t is claimed that Grancia went to d physician to have his in- juries treated. The two officers state that if the youth was injured 1t was when he made the fight against the officers, the injuries coming from the iron fence which he grasped. Chief Adamson's hands were in- jured on the fence in the struggle. In court the next morning Grancia was given a suspended sentence for one year by Judge Claremont l. Tolles The petitioners also want to have this suspension lifted.
 Appointments Still At Sea
 All kinds of rumors are afloat to- day relative to the appointments to be made by the board of warden and burgesses at their organization meet ing tonight at 3 o'clock daylight saving time in the borough court room. With Warden Green and the democratic burgesses in power, the democrats would ordinarily control the naming of all appointive officers, but the democratic members of the board are said to be not in accord and unless the matter is ironed out before the hour of the meeting to- night anything is liable to happen.
 Burgess John Burke of the first ward is reported not in accord with Warden Green and Burgess Anen- berg and Sheridan on appointments and unless some agreement Is reach ed the democrats will go into the meeting all at sea with possibility of the republicans slipping in some of the appointive officers. This could only be accomplished by q coalition with the republicans and this is doubted by party leaders. In case Of a deadlock the present officers would of course hold over until such time as the board came to an agreement. With Burgess Burke bucking the balance of power actually lies in his hands, for if the three republi- can burgesses decide to nominate candidates for the office and War den Green and Burgesses Anenberg and Sheridan back their candidates, 1t will be a deadlock. providing Bur gess Burke's candidates are not the same ones. Following the election last Monday 1t was the general opln ion that the present appointive oln- cers would be rtained, put at get together meeting held Friday night of the new board members and mem bers of the democratic town com mittee.
 Burgess Burke attended this meet inc and after short discussion stated that he had another engage | ment and left the meeting. Since that there has been no get-together l of the board members on the dem- l ocratic side that Burgess Burke knows of he stated this morning.
 This will leave the board going into
 session tonight without set pro-
 gram unless q meeting is held in the meantime to thrash things out. There are certain appointments. 1t
 was stated, that Burgess Burke, who | is a new member of the borough board, believes he should have some
 say in. The offices to be filled are senior burgess, second senior bur gess. borough clerk, borough attor- ney, superintendent of streets, bor- ough engineer. building inspector. officers of the fire department and two members of the board of char ities. The latter appointments as well
 as those of the fire department of ficers may not be acted upon to-
 night. Those holding the offices at present are Hugh Hearns, borough
 clerk, D. J. German, superintendent
 of streets, Attorney Martin l.. Caine. borough attorney, Robert D. Beards- | ley, borough engineer and James
 Fitzgerald, building inspector. There
 was q report this morning that Supt of Streets German would not accept
 a re-appointment, but this could not be verified. Leading democrats ex-
 pressed. the opinion this morning that things would be ironed out be- | fore the. board went Into session to- night. Indications this morning were that one fellows guess was as good as the next when 1t came to doping
 out what might happen in the mat ter of appointments.
