Morse Gets More Time In Federal Case
The United States Circuit Court of Appeals granted a writ of error and a stay of execution for Charlies W. Morse, a banker sentenced to fifteen years in a federal prison in Atlanta. The extension to February 1 was granted because counsel could not complete the bill of exceptions in time. U S Attorney Henry L.

Civic groups in Staten Island and Bayonne plan a Monday meeting at 28 Broadway to discuss a surface electric line from Toetenville or Perth Amboy to Port Richmond then tunnel the Kill van Kull to West Eight Street Bayonne and switch to the Central Railroad main line to Jersey City and Manhattan.

Liberty Street Terminal to be Grand New Jersey Rail Hub
Joseph Osgood chief engineer of the Central Railroad of New Jersey states the Liberty Street terminal will be one of the world’s handsomest structures and is expected to be completed around January. The design follows a ferrile type with a copper front, fireproof walls, and plaster waiting rooms with Istrian marble wainscoting. A bridge across West Street will link upper and lower exits, with concrete piers already in place. Construction began after demolishing Pier 1e and building a new 300 foot pier renumbered 11, started September 1204, aiming to avoid interrupting heavy traffic.
