Many Side With Hoboken's
Mayor, While Others Believe
, Sheriff Won’t Be Indicted.
Special te the Evening Star.
JERSEY CITY, Dec. IS.—Hudson
if county today Is divided into two
camp* over the attempts that Mayor
. Patrick R. Griffin, of Hoboken, is
making to have Sheriff Eugene F.
Kinkead Indicted for malfeasance in
office, charging him with violating the
criminal practices act in wantonly
using his office to further ills political
i ambitions.
At told in yesterday's Evening Star,
counsel for Mayor Griffin appeared
before Justice Francis Swayse when
the December grand Jury was being
Sworn in and challenged the entire
panel on the ground that Sheriff Kin
kead had had a hand in drawing tha
men and that they would therefore
be prejudiced in his interest when the
charges were formally preferred. Jus
p tice Bwayze, however, refused to allow
P the challenge on the ground that the
eheriff had to act with the Jury com
missioner and could not ha™ selected
men ho favored from the list of 300.
t The sheriff himself was entirely
1 unaware that. Mayor Griffin was going
to take any action of the sort. He
grew white when it was brought to j
his notice and exclaimed, “I’m flab- j
bergasted! I didn't expect anything
like^his!’’ Beyond that he declined to ;
say anything. Nor would he make a
statement of any kind today.
’’’fhero isn’t anything to say Just !
now," he declared. "Justice Swayze's
action speaks volumes—a great deal
more than I could say by comment.
See my lawyer."
Former Senator William D. Ed-1
wards, who has been retained by the
sheriff as counsel, said today: “At I
this time I have nothing to say. The |
sheriff was trying to do his duty and
was doing it, and now someone Is try
ing-to hammer him. That's all I can
see to the whole thing.”
Corporation Counsel John J. Fallon,
of Hoboken, when court opened, pre
tented the challenge in writing,
: charging the sheriff with partiality in
selecting the panel, violating the
criminal laws of the State, and hence
not qualified to select Jurors.
Charges In the Complaint.
The complaint specifically states
that on September 26 Sheriff Kinkead
arrested several saloon-keepers In Ho
boken. and. after making verbal
charges against them for selling
liquor on Sunday, failed to appear
against them in court after a meeting
with politicians at the home of for- .
mer Mayor George H. Stell, of Ho- |
token, at which representatives of the ;
aaloon-keepers were told that their :
cases would not be pressed if they
voted for his candidates for freeholder
and Assembly.
The sheriff Is quoted in Baying:
"I don’t want to injure you people.
I just want to show you that Grlffln
Is not boss. This is not my act. Judge
Tennant forced me to make the ar
rests on Sunday and I don't want to
have him have anything on me. After
election 1 will let you remain open i
after 12 o’clock noon Sundays."
The complaint further charged that
Sheriff Kinkead arrested fifteen men
during the Bayonne strike and that
he "unlawfully released said persons
from the said Jail and thus permit
ted and caused said persons to un
lawfully escape therefrom prior to
such examination and without said
recorder or other magistrate or court
having issued a proper release for the
prisoners and is thereby guilty of a
voluntary escape In each of the
cases.”
In conclusion the complaint
prayed:
"Wherefore deponent prays that the
■aid Eugene F. Kinkead may be ap
prehended and held to answer the
said complaint and dealt with as law
and justice may require."
The complaint is signed and sworn
to by Mayor Grlffln.
Challenge Denied.
Justice Swayzo had no Intimation
that such a complaint would be hand
ed him nor did any other person In
the county except the legal advisers
and intimates of Mayor Grlffln. Con
sequently there was a delay In open
ing court while Justice Swayze con
sulted hla associates and the law on
such proceed‘ngs.
Returning to the bench he an
nounced that he would deny the chal
lenge. saying:
"Since a matter of that kind arose
In this court the law of the State has
been changed. Grand jurors now are
selected not by the sheriff alone, but
by the sheriff and a Jury commis
sioner. and they are not even selected
by the sheriff and the jury commis
sioner, but 300 names are selected by
these two gentlemen and thirty-five
names are drawn by lot to be sum
moned as grand jurors. Under those
circumstances we think that a chal
lenge to the array directed to partial
ity on the part of the sheriff alone
cannot be sustained.
"In presumption of law both the
sheriff and the Jury commissioner
have assented to each name of the
300 that has prone Into the box. We
assume that they have done what the
law requires them to do.
"Obviously a challenge to the array
directed to one only of them is In
adequate, and the strictest rule ought
to be observed, because it affects the
whole administration of the criminal
law in this country. We therefore
decline to entertain the proposed
challenge to the array.”
The Grand Jury was then sworn in
and after Justice Swayze refused to
listen to offers of Mayor Griffin's
counsel to verbally prove the accusa
tions In the complaint, he charged the
jury with reference to the case as
follows:
Sheriff Not Above Low.
“The statement which was present
ed to me by Mr. Fallon and Mr. Lich
tenstein. and which has now taken
the form of an affidavit, makes most
serious charges against the sheriff of :
this county.
"The prosecutor will present those
charges, and I suppose the complain- |
ants will, of course, furnish him with
the names of witnesses, so that you, ]
notwithstanding our ruling upon the ;
challenge to you gentlemen, will in- j
vestlgate the case with the same Im
partiality and the same thoroughness
that you would investigate a com
plaint against any private individual,
for the sheriff of a county, great as is
his power, great as Is his responsi
bility, and dlgnliied as Is his position,
is not above the law.
“If he has violated the law in the
rgppects mentioned in this affidavit,
you would, of course, be derelict In

Griffin’s Statement.
HOBOKEN, Dec. IB.—Mayor Patrick
R. Griffin, in a statement issued last
night to "the people of Hudson Coun
ty,” went after Sheriff Eugene F.
Klnkead and Secretary of State
Thomas F. Martin. Mayor Griffin
said, in part:
"The slander that has been heaped
upon the fair name of the city of
Hoboken within the past week or two
by a few vicious and envious men who
do not live in the city cannot be longer
allowed to pass unnoticed. As far as
I am personally concerned, I am
ready at any time to submit myself
upon my public record to the judg
ment of the people who have honored
me by choosing me as their executive.
But because I am Mayor of the city
I consider it my duty to let the resi
dents of neighboring cities know that
Hoboken is a well-governed and mor
ally clean place to live in, and not the
modern Sodom that Sheriff Klnkead,
Tom Martin and a few others have
conjured it out of their own minds to
Idq
Charges Untrue.
“The statement that dives and im
moral resorts have been running in
Hoboken during my term as Mayor is
an absolute, unqualified and malicious
lie, and the people who have uttered
it, including Klnkead and Martin,
knew it was a lie. There have been
no dives running in Hoboken while I
have been Mayor, nor will there be as
long as I occupy a position with the
power to prevent them.
“The whole foundation upon which
seems to be based the slander of the
city of Hoboken arises from a ‘raid'
conducted by Sheriff Klnkead upon a
licensed saloon on Hudson street, at
which time he made arrests for vio
lating the law agalnBt selling liquor
on Sunday. 1 do not purpose to dis
cuss the merits of the bishops act,
nor the possibility of its being strictly
enforced in Hudson County. Various
judges, prosecutors and the like have
tried to enforce it without any appre
ciable success. All I wish to remark
is that Sheriff Kinkead has shown an
extraordinary agility in Sunday raids
on saloons operated by men who dis
agree with him politically, and a sur
prising blindness toward similar vio
lations on the part of his friends. I
have not used my power over the ex
cise department in Hoboken to punish
my enemies or to reward my friends
in the liquor business. All have been
treated alike.
"I have no personal knowledge of
how the place was conducted, but 1
do know that Director McFeely and
myself have been positive in our In
structions that no place of a dis
reputable character be permitted to
exist in Hoboken, and I have the
fullest confidence that Chief of Police
Hayes has carried out those instruc
tions to the letter.
“Presumably they have begun. Now
let them come on. I am ready for
them at any stage of the game. I told
the people of Hoboken when I was a
candidate for commissioner that If
they elected me I would at all times
so conduct myself in office that 1
would be able to look every man
squarely in the eye and be ready at
any moment to give an exact account
of my stewardship. And so I am
] ready now. and so I will do whenever
X am called upon."
Feeling Prevalent That Jersey
Blue Laws Are Antiquated;
Special to the Beeping Star.
JERSEY CITY, Dec. 15.—Much i
feeling throughout the city and j
county has been aroused by the i
Charge of Justice Francis Swayze to j
the Hudson county December grand
Jury yesterday, in which he said that I
the operation of the motion picture
houses on Sunday is a violation of
the State statutes and is not per
missible. The indignation is not di
rected against Justice Swayze, but is
against the State legislators in allow
ing such antiquated legislation as the
notable "New Jersey blue laws” to
remain on the State statute books.
Many believe that the conducting
of any harmless and orderly amuse
ment such as motion picture exhibi
tions on the Sabbath is perfectly
Justifiable and acquiesce to Justice
Swayze's interpretation of the law
that as they are neither a necessity
nor an object of charity at the pres
ent time they hq^fe no right to oper
ate on Sunday. *
The feeling is prevalent, however,
that the State legislators should take
cognizance of the inadequacy of the
present laws and amend or revise
them radically.
Confident of Acquittal, Society
Woman Smiles During Trial
Special to the Evening Star,
j HACKENSACK, Dec. 15.—Appar
; ently either ignorant of the serious
ness of the charge against her or else
confident of acquittal, Mrs. Marlon C.
Merrill, prominent socially in Has
brouck Heights, on trial here for
arson, wore a continual and serene
smile throughout the hearing yester
l day, which was continued this morn
| ing. She is accused of firing her home
[ on Burton avenue in eight different
places. The defence occupied the stand
this morning, taking it yesterday aft
ernoon. The State closed its cast;
yesterday morning after presenting a
formidable array of damaging evi
dence.
Increase in Fare Rates for
Mercer Trolley Line Denied
From a Staff Correspondent.
TRENTON, Dec. 15.—The Board of
Public Utility Commissioners has de
nied the application of the New Jer
sey and Pennsylvania Traetlon Com
pany for permission to increase its
rate of fares for passengers between
Trenton and Princeton from fifteen to
twenty cents.
The board granted the company
permission to increase its rate from
ten to fifteen cents between these
two points In 1913, and is not con
vinced that the present proposed in
crease would be just.

Speakers from Clinton Hill and
Roseville Association Oppose
Memorial Building.
That the referendum vote in favor
of a Jl.BOO.OOO memorial building for
this city was hasty and ill-advised,
that, taxes will be greatly increased
as a result, and that efforts ought to
be made to kill the project, was the
consensus of opinion of members of
the various improvement associations
who met and formed the Federated
Improvement Associations of the City
of Newark yesterday afternoon.
The meeting was held at the Board
of Trade, and the principal speakers
against the project were Dr. William
Buermann, of the Clinton Hill im
provement Association, and Edward
J. Macksie, president of the Roseville
Improvement Association.
Sentiment was generally in favor of
the formation of a federation, the
project having been hanging Are for
some time. The plan is for the new
federation to work in conjunction
with the Committee of One Hundred
during the city's 260th birthday anni
versary next year, and also to act in
concert in any matters which are
regarded as of vital Interest to tax
payers and business men of Newark.
John B. Brasser, president of tho
West Side Improvement Association,
presided at yesterday’s meeting, while
James J. Matthews acted as secretary.
The chairman was authorized to ap
point a committee to draw up a con
stitution and by-laws for the new
federation, but announced that he
would not announce the names of
the committeemen until he had given
the matter careful consideration. By
unanimous vote of the improvers, XI r. j
Brasser will be one of the commit
tee.
Dr. Buermann, in discussing tho
plan for a federation of improvement
association, poured hot shot into the
memorial building project.
“Should we form a federation," said
ho, “we would immediately be divided
on tho site of the memorial. We can't
co-operate on that. Few could. We
must consider the question of taxa
tion. If the people are satisfied, all
right. Some people are telling me
we will not get the memorial In time
for the celebration next year. I think
it is wrong to put a hole in the
groand, block up traffic and let peo
ple come and see a hole in the ground.
I understand it would take two years
to build the memorial, and I think
It would be better to let the whole
thing go.”
Says Roseville Concurs.
“Wo view tho situation in the same
way in the Roseville section of the
city,” said Mr. Macksie. “It will be
two years before the building can be
completed, and we regard it as un
necessary and a burden upon the tax
payers. If we were to vote on the
project again I believe that it would
be rejected. A great many people
voted for it because the Committee
of Cine Hundred wanted the memorial
building. There was no campaign
against it, and it was simply allowed
to slide through. If it were up to
morrow it would be be defeated by a
large majority.”
When Mr. Macksle had concluded
his remarks, Dr. Buermann again se
cured the floor and declared he did
not see what need there was for a
memorial building.
‘‘We have fine high schools where
we could hold celebrations," said he,
"and this memorial building will raise
the ratables on what you have and
not allow for retrenching a bit. We
are not getting value for value. I
agree with Mayor Raymond in saying
that the people have taken an Interest
in municipal affairs. If you show un
due interest in matters going on at
City Hall you are called a kicker. I
think the best thing for the city would
be a commission form of government,
so that we would have a more busi
nesslike administration of the city’s
affairs.”
Federated Taxation Committee.
Dr. Buermann also suggested that a
committee on federation of taxation
be appointed and suggested that the
improvers get together on something
big. No second was heard and Mr.
Macksle suggested that a committee
of three be appointed to report back
at a meeting to be held on Tuesday,
January 4. relative to a constitution
and by-law-s for the new federation.
Fred A. Fischer, of the Clinton Hill
Improvement Association, talked in a
general way of matters which he
thought should be brought to the at
tention of the Improvers. 0ne mat
ter was the amount of waste paper
found on the streets. He opposed the
suggestion of Henry Wellington
Wack, executive adviser of the Com
mittee of One Hundred, that the boys
of the various sections be organized
for the purpose of looking after the
violators of the law regarding the
depositing of rubbish in the streets.
Mr. Fischer thought that the police
men should see that the streets were
kept clean, as residents would resent
being reminded of their faults by
small boys if they violated the waste
paper ordinance.
Chairman Brasser explained that
the generad purpose of the federation
would be to discuss such matters as
the memorial building proposition,
tunnels, markets and any other things
of interest to taxpayers.
"If we come together once a
month,” said he, ‘‘the members can
confer as to the problems which con
front the various localities."
Those present at the meeting yes
terday were John B. Brasser, West
Side Improvement Association: James
J. Matthews, Branch Brook; Edward
J. Macksie, Roseville; Herman Schles
inger, Ironbound; Dr. William Buer
mann and Fred A. Fischer, Clinton
Hill; Conrad Schneider, Roseville,
and C. Clifford Brangs, of the North
western Improvement Association.
The latter association will meet next
Friday night, at which time it is ex
pected to formally indorse the feder
ation project.

NERVOUSNESS AND BAD DREAMS
CAUSED BY UPSET STOMACH
Nightmare. Restlessness and
Night Sweats Usually Caused
by Indigestion — How to
Overcome It.
Half of tho nervousness in the
world; all of the disturbing dreams
and nightmares, can usually be ended
in a few weeks by a simple, inex
pensive treatment.
Upset stomach is most always the
cause of nervousness and bad dreams;
Your food is lying in your stomach
undigested and fermenting; it is
forming poisonous gases, which Irri
tate the pneumogastric nerve that
leads direct from the brain and ends
in a network of tiny branches run
ning through every part of the stom
ach.
It is also the irritation of this great
pneumogastric nerve that almost in
variably causes headaches. Many
times people have severe headaches
and know they are caused by the
stomach, but do not know in what
manner.
If you are nervous; have dreams or
nightmare; do not sleep sound at
night, get a box of Mi-o-na stomach
tablets, and take one or two after or
with meals. They relieve distressed
stomach in five minutes, but it is
their usefulness in building up the
stomach and putting it Into perfect
condition that has made Mi-o-na
known che world over as the greatest
prescription for stomach miseries and
indigestion ever written.
Put your stomach in fine shape with
Mi-o-na and your nervousness and
bad dreams will quickly vanish.
Mfi-6-’na stomach tablets are guar
anteed to end digestion, sour stom
ach, heartburn, belching of gas, Ueav.
ness and other stomach disturbance
or money back.
With a protecting guarantee like
this behind your purchase there 1b no
reason why any sufferer of stomach
distress should not give Mi-o-na a
fair ‘trial. Get a box today and see
how much more there is to life.
For sale by druggists everywhere
and by E. R. Petty. Costs little for
results to be had.

MY COUNTRY HOME
out on the farm, at a con
venient distance from the city,
surrounded with all that makes
country life desirable, is the in
dividual dream of many of us
who have become tired of the
din and battle that seem to be
a part of the dally routine of
city life.
Well, we think that at least
after a few more years of toll
and trial we will buy a neat
little farm and settle down
where business conditions will
never again annoy us.
Why not be interested right
now In buying that farm? Look
over the list In the Evening

to day until you find the place
that suits you.
