MANY WILLING TO
GO TO CONGRESS
FROM PASSAIC
Seventh District Patriots Lining
Up for Place Vacated Through
Death of Brenner.
■ [Special to the Jfcwnrk Star.]
PATERSON, Feb. 10.—In anticipa
tion of the special election to be
called by Governor James F. Fielder
for the election of a congressman In
the Seventh congressional district to
fill the vacancy caused by the death
of Robert G. Bremner. things politi
cal have begun to stir here.
There is reason to believe that all
parties will put a candidate in the
field The Socialist party, which
made such a strong showing In the
Paterson mayoralty campaign last
November, has announced Gordon
Demares i, defeated candidate for
mayor here, as their candidate for
Congress. The Progressive party an
nounces they will have a candidate
in the field. Both Democratic and
Republican parties wlU have any
number of congressional aspirants.
Just who the Democrats are who
w(U get In the race is not settled at
»hl# time. It Is understood that
Ufiited States Senator William
Hughes Is anxious that his private
secretary, James O'Byrne, shall be
come a candidate. Mr. O'Byrne,
through his long association with
Senator Hughes, is well known
throughout the district. His attitude
Inltbe matter, however, has not been
made public ae yet.
The names of Dr. Andrew F. Mc
Bride, former mayor; County Counsel
J.’Willard De Voe, former Assembly
man Robert Roe. who was defeated
for mayor In this city last Novem
ber, are among those Democrats men
tioned for the office. Dr. McBride told
a reporter for the Newark Evening
Star today that under no considera
tion would he consent to his name
being used In this connection. He had
never given the subject a thought,
he said. . . „
"I am not a candidate and shall
not be a candidate,” he declared with
emphasis. ''My profession would not
permit it, and besides my inclinations
are not in that direction."
Anton L. Petersen, of Passaic, Is
among those favorably mentioned.
iTie Republican party Is teeming
with candidates. Albin Smithy a
lawyer, who opposed the late Con
g-.-essman Bremner for the office In
lilJ, announces he is in the race.
Johu M. Ward, law partner of Sena
tor Peter J. McGinnis, of this city, Is
an avowed candidate. Thomas Fox
httll, one-time opponent of Senator
Hughes, when the latter ran for Con
gress, has announced himself as a
candidate. So has Freeholder Dow
Drukker, Assemblyman Dalrymple,
J. Hosey Osborne and C. F. H. John
son and Edward Moore, of Passalo,
besides others from that town.
Before the week Is out there Is a
likelihood of there being a score of
congressional aspirants.
Primary preliminaries and other
details will be arranged as soon as
practicable after Governor Fielder
issues the formal election call.

Mourners See “Bob” Bremner Laid at Rest
PASSAIC, Feb. 10.—Principals of
the schools In this city and Paterson
this morning spoke on the late Con
gressman Robert Bremner's life and
death. In many schools prayers were
offered by the pupils for him.
Never in the history of this county
has there been a demonstration at a
funeral of such magnitude and im
pressiveness as “Bob” Bremner’s yes
terday afternoon. No less than 5.000
people stood shivering In the cold
February wind around the residence
in this city. Many thousands more
must be added to these, for the
crowds kept on coming and going con
stantly, and, again, the setreets all
along the seven miles over which the
procession passed on the w*ay to
Laurel Grove Cemetery, in Paterson,
were lined with mourners and spec
tators.
Sixty coaches, a score of auto
mobiles and several marching organi
zations made the cortege over a mile
n length. In the procession were
men of national prominence, men of
high official standing in county af
fairs, including citizens of Passaic and
Paterson, men of various military and
fraternal organizations, and a vast
host of those who were just “plain I
friends,” and hi whom “Bob” took a
special pride.
At the graveside another scene was
enacted, which will live for a long
time in the minds of those present
Fully 500 persons surrounded the
newiy-made grave, hundreds having
preceded the cortege to the cemetery.
And while the last simple ceremonies
were performed the men stood with
bared heads and women wept as they
beheld the remains of Conlgressman
Bremner lowered to their last resting
place.
prefer a charge of assault and battery
against the clergyman.
"A doctor or a minister can be
allowed to assume a closer relation
ship with their patients and parish
ioners than the ordinary person,” said
the recorder.
A large audience was present In the
court-room to listen to the case. It
consisted mostly of women members
of Dr. Kidder’s parish, and they
crowded round him to offer their con
gratulations when the decision was
announced.
Boston Church Destroyed
by Fire; Damage $100,000
BOSTON, Feb. 10.—The Second t'nl
versalist Church, at Clarendon and
Chandler streets, in the south end,
was badly damaged by fire early to
day. Starting in the rear of the large
brick structure, the flames quickly
swept through the interior. The
church, one of the oldest Universalist
places of worahipTn the city, was in
the midst of a lodging-house district,
and many families were temporarily
driven from their homes.
Rev. S. H. Roblln, the pastor, esti
mated the damage at about $100,000,
including the destruction of the valu
able organ. As the fire penetrated to
the front of the church the firemen
took precautions to guard against the
danger to nearby buildings in case the
hundred-foot steeple should fall. The
Back Bay Hotel Is directly across Co
lumbus avenue from one corner of the
church.
The fire was brought under control
after a two hours’ fight. The 6teeple
remained standing.

With Central Exchange
NEW YORK, Fet>. 10.—Following
conferences by Mayor Mltchel and
four of his newly-appointed heads of
departments, it was decided yester
day to establish a central employ
ment exchange to relieve the distress
of men out of work. Henry’ Bruere,
city chamberlain, sent represent
atives to employment agencies to ask
them to co-operate.
It is proposed to communicate twice
daily with each employment agency
co-operating and to publish a daily
letter telling the character of work
offered and the number and class of
men seeking employment. Copies will
be posted in police stations, neigh
borhood settlements, employment

I Commission’s investigation of certain
financial operations of the New York,
New Haven a.nd Hartford railroad
was taken today by the commission.
It ordered the inquiry to begin imme

it was not decided when or where or
whether they will bo public.
For the present the commission will
conduct its inquiry by gathering
from all available sources whatever
information may throw light on the

Seek Gas Meter Thieves
Police of the Third precinct are
searching for thieves who robbed
gas meters in two houses last night.
William H. Smith reported that three^
gas meters in his house at 89 Cham

that the good will and do-operation
of men of all parties and creeds may
heal the dissension and lay the
foundations of a lasting settlement.”
The king, referred to his forthcom
ing visit to France as affording “an
opinion testifying to the cordial re
lations” between the two countries.
Proposals In Message.
Besides the renewed submission to
Parliament of the home rule for Ire
land and the Welsh church dis
establishment bills, the domestic
legislation promised in the king’s
speech includes proposals for the re
cons tructlon^f the second chamber,
a bill providing for imperial naturali
zation, and measures dealing with the
housing of the poor and education.
Today’s session opened by King
George is the fourth of the present
British Parliament—a session that
promises to be a history-making one
owing to the important constitutional
questions to be decided.
Queen Mary and the king both wore
their crowns and brilliant royal
robes. They rode in the state coach
of gold drawn by eight Hanoverian
cream-colored horses from Bucking
ham palace through the Mall, over
the Horse Guards parade, and then
along Whitehall to the king’s en
trance to the House of Lords. Great
crowds assembled along the route
to witness the procession. The
weather was ideal.
Scene Is Picturesque.
In the House of Lords the scene
was a picturesque one as their ma
jesties, surrounded by other members
of the royal family and by peers and
peeresses in their state robes, as
cended the throne. The king imme
diately read his speech. •
Only a few privileged strangers
were admitted to the House. These
included members of the House of
Commons, most of the foreign diplo
matic corps and representatives of
the official world.
The American ambassador and
Mrs. Page were among those pres
ent.
The real work of what promises to
be the most momentous session of
recent times began with the assembly
of the House of Commons after a
brief luncheon interval.
Much of the customary perfunctory
procedure was omitted and little in
terest was manifested in the formal
speeches of the mover and seconder of
the address in reply to the speech
from the throne.
Long Makes Hot Reply.
Walter Long, formerly Unionist
chief secretary for Ireland, then
sprang to his feet, and on behalf of
the Unionists threw down a challenge
to Premier Asquith to submit home
rule to a vote of the country. The
plea made by the king in his speech
“to heal dissension” found little echo
in Mr. Long’s advocacy of the case
for the Unionists of Ulster. He asked
the House of Commons squarely to
face the fact that for the first time
)n centuries the United Kingdom was
threatened with civil war.
Mr. Long ridiculed the talk of tl®

Turing to the ministerial bench he
taunted the members of the govern
ment for what he termed their pusil
lanimity with regard to the recent
event sin the union of South Africa.
“With all your boasted supremacy,”
the former chief secretary for Ireland
said, “you dare not take any action
that would bring you Into conflict
with the government of South
Africa.”
The opening of the House of Com
mons found an unusually large num
ber of members gathered at the doors
waiting to make a dash into the
chamber to secure seats for the mo
mentous initial debate.
Search for Suffragette*.
The police and soldiers, whose du
ties on these occasions heretofore
have been largely perfunctory, were
opt busy for several hours early to
day searching every corner of the
o ults for suffragettes.
This searching process has been done
on the opening day of the session ever
since the discovery of the “gunpow
der plot” of Guy Fawkes. The yeo
men of the guard in their picturesque
old-time uniforms were accompanied
today by the chief inspectors of the
metropolitan police, who discarded the
ancient lanterns generally carried and
replaced tjiem with modern electric
torches so as to make sure that no
hidden militant should escape them.
Member of Duma Challenges
Beiliss Prosecutor to Duel
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 10.—A
challenge to a duel was sent today by
A. Savenko, the Nationalist leader In
the Duma, to G. Zamlslovsky, a con
servative deputy and attorney for the
“Black Hundred.”
Zamislovsky was one of the prose
cuting attorneys at the trial of Men
del Beiliss at Kiev. In the course of
the trial ho alleged that Savenko had
told him that M. Shulgren, editor of
the newspaper Kievlianln, whose
championship of Beiliss is generally
regarded as having secured the ac
quittal of the accused, was actuated
by the sordid motive of securing
money from the Jews to support a
sugar factory in which he was in
terested. M. Savenko declared the
statement a falsehood
“Society Thief,” Who Stole
for Orphans, Extradited
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10.—George
Gunning, who the police say has an
international reputation as a “society
butler thief,” left here last night in
charge of detectives from Ports
mouth, N. H., where he is wanted to
answer a charge of stealing $20,000 1
worth of diamonds while serving as
butler for Mrs. George H. Stude
baker, in June, 1912. He wras released
from the county prison here last
Saturday after serving a term for
stealing diamonds valued at $2,600
from a physician in this city, by

BILLS PROIESILB |
BY TROLLEY MEN
Blame the Public, Not the Rail
roads, for Crowding,
They Say.
TRENTON, Feb. 10.—Representa
tives of the Public Service Railway
Company, as well as of eighteen
other traction companies operating in
New Jersey, appeared before the rail-1
road. and canals committee of the«
House of Assembly last night to,
oppose a favorable report by that i
committee on two bills now In Its
hands affecting the operation of trol
ley cars. One Is a bill Introduced by
Assemblyman George J. Bracken, re
quiring that trolley companies fur
nish a seat for every passenger, or,
falling that, to give a rebate check
to every unseated passenger. This Is
Assembly bill No. 18. The other bill
Is Assembly No. 99, Introduced by
Assemblyman Clinton E. Fisk, of
Hudson. It requires that all opera
tors of street railway lines furnish
adequate service, defines what Is ade
quate service and provides penalties
of fines and even the forfeiture of
rights and franchises for failure to
furnish adequate service.
John J. Burleigh, of Camden, vice
president of the Public Servloe Cor
poration, vigorously opposed the bill
In opening the discussion. He was
followed by John L. O’Toole, of New
ark, publicity man of the Public Ser
vice Corporation. Mr. Burleigh said:
"Bills 18 and 99 are kindred bills,
both proposing to regulate by statute
public utility companies, changing
the policy of the State as fixed In
1911. Both political parties at that
time made It a part of their plat
forms and campaign addresses that
public utilities should not be so regu
lated. If elected they proposed to
remedy It. They were determined to
create a utility commission with full
powers over rates and service.
"Mr. Wilson was elected, together
with a Democratic Ilouso. The pledge
was kept and a Public Utilities Com
mission appointed with plenary pow
ers. From that day to this not a
single bill has been enacted which
had for Its object the regulation of
utilities.
"Under those circumstances, wniie
I do not want to question the motives
back of these bills, I do say that
while they may be honest I do not
know that they are and I have a
right to look on them with suspicion.
"The bills are drastic and alto
gether impracticable. I hope the
committee will do os all committees
since 1911 have done and refer all
questions of rates and service to the
Publio Utilities Commission."
Mr. O'Toole said that the provisions
of the bills were Impossible of carry
ing out by street railway companies,
physically, practically and financially.
"The keynote of the transportation
problem today is speed. People will
not let cars go by, filled or empty.
The conditions at Broad and Market
streets, Newark; the Lackawanna
terminal, Hoboken; the Exchange
place terminal and tube stations in
Jersey City and the ferry at Camden
are not to be controlled in this free
hand manner.
"I could show twenty-five places in
this State where nothing can keep
passengers from crowding into cars
in the rush hours. The inconsistency
of seeking to punish the street rail
way companies for conditions the
passengers bring about must be ap
parent to the committee.’’
Say P. R. Retains Canal
to Monopolize Traffic
TRENTON, Feb. 10—The House
committee on railroads and canals
yesterday gave a public hearing on1
Assemblyman Arthur Quinn’s bill to
repeal the charter under which the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company
controls the Delaware and Raritan
Canal.
John Pfeiffer, former mayor of Perth
Amboy, urged the passage of the law 1
on- the ground that commerce along
the route of the waterway would be
Increased; that the railroad now re
stricts shipments through the canal
and that deep-water vessels are pre
vented from entering the stream be
cause of the seven-foot depith.
Captain Bernard Bird said the
Pennsylvania Railroad has operated
the canal at a loss of $100,000 an- j
nually and merely holds the stream :
open as a club over the heads of
those who have to use the canal for
commercial purposes.
A. P. Gest represented the Pennsyl
vania Railroad and opposed the pass
age of the hill.
Alan H. Strong also spoke against
bill. He represented the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company.
Carlton B. Godfrey, a member of
the House from Atlantlo, urged the
committee to secure an opinion from
the attorney-general as to whether
the charter of the canal company can
be repealed legally.
Paterson Man Jailed on
Charges Preferred by Woman
fSpecial to the Newark Star,]
PATERSON. Feb. 10.—Through ef
forts of officers of the Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children,
Michael Ferallo, forty-seven years of
age, was sent to the county Jail on
two charges yesterday. The first
charge, that of atrocious assault and
battery, was preferred against him by
Lena Meglia, twenty-seven years old,
a mother of five children, with whom
he had been living for the past seven
years. On the second charge, of un
lawfully living with the woman, he
was held in $1,500 bail.
Investigation disclosed that the
family of mother and children were
living in the most abject poverty at
10 Mersells place, WeBt Park. It was
found that the woman and her chil
dren had been living for the past two
years on a composition of flour, water
and macaroni, while Ferello enjoyed
the most delicious meals ln their
presence. When she appeared before
Justice of the Peace Charles Evans
the woman was weak and emaciated
from lack of nourishment and
trembled visibly when she charged
Ferello with beating her. Ladies of
the auxiliary to the West Park Are
department are planning to have the
children sent to a place where they
will receive the proper care.

DETECTIVE AGENCY

_ %
Paterson Storekeeper Ask^ ^
Damages from O’Brien for Al
leged Assault in Strike.
PATERSON, Feb. 10.—The O’Brien
detective agency, of Newark, of
which Jeremiah F. O’Brien is the
head, was yesterday served with
papers in a suit for $10,000 brought
against It in the Supreme Court by
Genaro Lembo, of 128 Fifth avenue,
this city, through John O. Benson.
This is the second suit of this kind
against the agency as a result of the
I. W. W. silk strike of last year, one
having been started for $100,000 for
the killing by one of the detectives of
Modestlno during a riot.
It was oh the same day that this
non-striker was shot that Lembo, the
plaintiff in the present case, received
the Injuries on which he bases his
suit. He was standing in a grocery /
store he owns in the Riverside sec
tion, he says, when two of the
O’Brien detectives rushed In and
struck him over the head. They be
lieved that he was one of the crowd
which they had just been chasing,
and they handled him none toov
gently.
Shortly afterward Lembo was
taken as a patient to the General
Hospital, where It was found that he
had just escaped a fractured skull.
He was a patient for weeks, and his
business naturally suffered as a conse
quence. In addition, he had to foot
a doctor's bill and a hospital bill of
$125.
Following the assault on Lembo
both detectves implicated were held
in police court in $5,000 bail each, r
awaiting the acton of the grand Jury. ^
