in 1,222 new names being enrolled,
just about one-seventh of Perth Am
boy's quota of 8,500 which she is to
secure during the week ending De
cember 24.
The Red Cross booths locatcd In the
theatres, banks and various stores in
this city were responsible for almost
half of the memberships secured, 508
being the result of their efforts. The
booths were in charge of fifty women,
two Red Cross members being at each
of the twenty-five booths. Bright
and early this morning the booths
were again "opened for business" with
the prospects of another record day.
Among the reports made last night
were those including the eighty-one
members secured at the Y. M, II. A.
flag raising on Sunday and the forty
five members enrolled following Sat
urday afternoon's meeting in the high
school.
But fifteen of the fifty teams that
aro working in this campaign made
a report yesterday, showing that
Perth Amboy Is more than holding its
own. The teams ore requested not
to hold back their reaports In order

Want 18,500 Members
Efforts are being· made to secure
18,500 members in this city instead
of 8,500. The team workers are en
deavoring to sign up every member
of a family as Red Cross workers In
stead of being satisiled with getting
one member. Service Hags are given
those families with extra crosses for
each memlber that joins the Red
Cross.
The teams reports yesterday were
as follows: Team No. 6, Rev. W. H.
Bawden, captain, 107 members; Team

The Red Crosis workers have re
ceived numerous inquiries as to
whether holders of present Red Cross
mem/berthips must renew their mem
berships at this time or whether they
are valid for the coming year. The |
New York headquarters have been j
gotten in touch with and the local j
chapter advised that all present mem
berships taken out previous to Sep- |
teimber 1, 1917, expire on December
31 of Oils year. In order to retain
their memberships these persons I
must renew now. All memberships
taken out since Se*ptem.bcr 1 of this
year will be oontlnued by the Red
Cross until December 31, 1918. It is
the desire of the National Red Cross
to have all memiberships expire on ι
the same date, beginning December
31, 1918, thus the action on the part I
of the National Red Cross. Although
all members who enrolled before Sep
tember 1 of this year must renew in
order to be members through 1918,
thoee wtio have enrolled since that
date will have their memberships
continued to December 31, 1918.
Owing to the tremendous demand
for Red Cross buttons the local head
quarter's supply has become exhaust
ed. General Chairman Albert I .eon
sent a special messenger to Newark
this morning for more buttons. These
buttons are the only receipts given
for memberships in the Red Cross.
Thoee who now enroll as members
but receive no buttons will have them
mailed to them within α few days.
The Red Cross headquarters are
open every day until 6 o'clock at
night. Headquarters then opens again
at 7 o'clock and remains open until
9 o'clock All captains u.-e urged to
report daily.
Tonight General Chairman of the

32 LOCAL DRAFTED MEN FOR
COAST ARTILLERY SERVICE
Men Will Go to Forts Howard and Washington in Maryland
on December 26—100 Will Go Tomorrow from Other
Sections of the State.
Following upon the request of the
provost marshal general that this
state supply 300 men for heavy coast
artillery service at Forts Howard
and Washington in Maryland, a post
ponement has been secured of the dis
patch of these men through the office
of the governor, so that the major
ity of the men will not be sent away
until traffic conditions are such that
they will be able to reach the fort
without difficulty. Tlie government
requested conscripts and Ignored the
request of Gov. Edge that the two
companies of state coast artillery,
which have received federal recogni
tion, be taken instead. I
Included in the lot of men to go on
December 26, or one week from to
morrow, are thirty-two from this city.
No official word has been received by
the local board, but telephone com
munication with the adjutant, gen
eral's office yesterday developed the
fact that the six per cent of tnc city's
quota was to move on that date. One
hundred men will go from Essex
county tomorrow.
Gov. Edge requested of the provost
marshal general, too, that he take two
companies of National Guard heavy
coast artillery, which have been form
ed at Red Bank and Fair Haven, and
have received federal recognition, but
the Washington authorities declined
and renewed their request for con
scripted men, despite the fact that the
governor had said that the companies
could be mobilized in twenty-four
hours.
In discussing the matter today, City
Clerk Hanson said that the men who
are to go a week from tomorrow from
here, will be taken from the regular
list of certified men, in their regular
order, and will not include volunteers.
Prospects of Christmas at home
were brought to 200 of the 300 men
throughout the state today when an
nouncement was made by the gover
nor that lie wôuld decline to order the
men to go tomorrow. Having heard
of the congested traffle conditions, the
governor requested of the provost
marshal general that he defer the dis
patch of the men for the week, or un
til after Christmas. This postpone
ment "will hold good for 200 men, but
the remainder, mostly Essex and Hud
son county men, will go tomorrow, ac
cording to scheduled times announc
ed by the adjutant general today.
One week from tomorrow, thè thir
ty-two men from this city will leave
here on the 7.20 train, and will arrive
at Washington at 3.13, in the after
noon. From the capitol they will go
to Fort Washington, Maryland, aryl
will use the Washington electric. liAe
to the Washington barracks whArf,
and a government steamer from./ the
wharf to the fort.

WASHINGTON, Dcc. 18—The sen

In making this announcemen
Chairman Hurley, of the whip pi m

The shipping tangle was brought be

"It is a crime that entanglement;
of red tape and inefficiency should b<
allowed to interfere with our ship

"Winning of the war depends 01

at Hotel Here. y
The EVENING NEWS has learned
on good authority that the United
States government ia making final ar
rangements for the purchase of 1,300
or 1,400 acres of land along the
Clieesequakes creek near Morgan sta
tion, and from what can be learned at
this time the dc-al may be elosod some
tune this week, through the local real
e«trute concern ot Alpern & Company.
Property Inspected
* The land in question has been in
spected by a government representa
tive and found to be sntJsfai'tory in
every way for the purpose the gov
ernment intends to make of it, and
after reporting favorably on the land
it is understood that the local real
estate concern haa obtained the op
tion on it for the government. The
land to be taken over by the govern
ment extends along the Oheesequakes
creek for a distance of one mile and
three-quarters and inland as far as
Kunyon. The ground taken also in
cludes the old tile factory along the
creek, where an explosion of powder
recently killed a mother and child.
j Ou Proposed Canal
Πιο land to be purchased by the
government also borders on the route
of the proposed New Jersey inland
waterway from Morgan to Borden
town. What effect the government
purchase will have in speeding up the
canal project is not known, but it is
agreed the locating of the proposed
plant by the government is signifi
cant.
Just what the land is intended to
be used for cannot be learned with
any degree of surety, but from what
can be learned, everything points to
the fact that one of the largest, if
not the largest shell loading plants
in the world, may be crected on this
property. It is practically certain
that between four .and five thousand
men will be employed in the new
plant constantly after its erection, up
on which work will be started as soon
as the deal is completed.
When Alpern & Company was seen
by a NEWS reporter, they refused to
either confirm or make a denial of
their interest in the matter, but inti
; mated that there would be some start
j ling information to be released within
a few days.
I Reservations for ten rooms at the
ι New Packer House have been made
by government men who are to work
on the new proposition. These reser
vations have been made, with the or
der to hold the rooms until the arihal
of the men in this city. Certain of
the men have already taken up their
residence at the hotel, and a confer
ence of some importance, whose pur
pose is not known, is slated to be held
there within a day or two. This is a
concrete evidence of the fact that
there is something in the wind, and
that the government ia planning the
work on the south shore.
It is vaguely understood, too that
the new proposition is to be a shell
loading plant, or some such operation.
Thf name of T. A. Gillespie & Com
pany has been mentioned in connec
tion with tile plant, and they arc un
derstood to be interested In the deal.
This company has a shell loading
plant at present in Parlin, and other
munitions work on hand, and they
may be the firm which is bringing
about the rejuvenation of the south
shore land.
The usual wartime reticence of per
sons connected with government work
is to be noted in all operations, and
those local men who have in some way
or another, a connection with the
work, decline to sneak of their infor
mation for publication.

A. McCormiek, of New Brunswick,

COPENHAGEN, Dec. 3 8.—Former!
Premier Kerensky has appeared near]
Petrograd, at the head of several thou- j
sand troops, according to a dispatch ,
near Haparanda printed today by the·
Berling Stidente. The dispatch as-1
serted that the Bolsheviki has sent|
out armed forces to meet this newest
counter-revolution against them.
Whether there has been any actual
fighting 'between the two sides was not
stated. Kerensky was last reported ;
in a little village in Finland to which
he had escaped, despite a price on his
head set by the Trotsky-Len-ine gov
ernment Recent elections to the con-ι
stituent assembly showed the former
premier had been elected to the body
by the city of Samara as well as by the
southeastern troops.
With Kerensky reported in the fleld
there are now apparently two seper-!
ate and distinctly counter revolution-;
ary movements being waged against
the Bolsheviki. One is the Cossack
Cadet party revolt under General
Kaledines and Korniloff, operating for
the most part in southeastern Russia.
The second is the Kerensky move. The i
above report does not indicate the
source of the former premier's,
strength. He may have joined with i
the Cossack Rebels, or he may be
loading a separate revolt on the social
democrats and Russian Labor Party.

: Pennsylvania Railroad, Broad SKreet

I the Pennsylvania to take premptory

sponsibility squarely up to the Belvi
dere division of the Pennsylvania
Dailroad and warns the company thaï
unless the cars are moved the coal
supply at that point \wll be diverted
to New York.
Intensifying an already serious sit
uation in New Jersey Governor Fdge
has also appraised R. Jenkinson. of
Newark, Federal Fuel Administrator
of his action and urged his coopera

Many reports «are being received by
the governor of coal shortage in cit

the most aggravated instance was
recited from the little summer resort
at Seaside Heights, Mayor Edwin C.
Kramer, calling on the governor this
morning with the story that the re

coal since November 12 last and that
residents of the city are suffering to a

INSTEAD Qr ALL AT ONCE
Question Arises Over Bonds—
To Secure Opinions of Lead
/. bomb was thrown into the polit
ic-! camp of the Republicans of the
county yesterday, when the Board of
Freeholders, in session in New Bruns
wick yesterday afternoon, passed
unanimously a resolution calling for
a searching: inquiry into whether or
not the Republican board elected at
the general election in November were
leg-ally elected, and what the powers
of the present board are, provided it
is decided that the new board is not
legally elected.
The resolution was introduced by
Director G-ebhardt. and resulted from
an opinion of Caldwell 6c. Masslich,
bond experts of New York city, that
the new board was not legally elect
ed, and consequently they would not
be able to say that the issue of court
deficiency bonds in t£e sum of SS.500
was legal or right. Their contention
is that the law of the state provides,
and the election is held in many coun
ties accordingly, that the freeholders
be elected according to state laws of
1912, as follows: two for one year, two
two years and three for three years,
and not all five at one time, as has
been the practice for many years in
Middlesex county.
The present board of freeholders
is Democratic with the exception of
William S. Dey, of South Amboy, who
was reelected at the last election. The
new board, elected in November, is
Republican with the exception of
