ment poured into the Houses of the Legislature, refused even to permit them to be read.


The people of Union felt particularly outraged by the invasion of their county, and great mass meetings were held to arrange a demonstration at Trenton that would force the attention of the jockey legislators. The white-haired Parson Kempshall was second only to Mr. Lindabury in firing these monster gatherings to the burning point. The movement became in- fectious ; and an army of indignant citizens stormed the State Capital and took possession of the jockey Speaker's chair. The excitement did not abate until it had culminated in a movement for an amendment to the state constitution that would forever rob the racing resorts of their chief attraction. The proposed new clause of the state's charter forbade gamb- ling in any of its forms.


It was the issue in the campaign of the succeeding fall. Mr. Lindabury in Union was first among those who took the platform in advocacy of the amendment ; and the people, at a special referendum, ordered it into the state constitution. The jockeys were hurled from power, and the democratic party, whose chiefs in the state had countenanced them, lost control of the state for many years afterwards. The race track people attacked the amendment on legal grounds ; and Mr. Lindabury was of the counsel who pleaded successfully in the courts for its retention.


It is in the courts outside the State however that Mr. Lindabury has been most largely in the eye of the nation. He was the chief counsel of the United States Steel Corporation in the suit set on foot by the United States Government to dissolve it as in violation of the Sherman Anti-Trust Law. The trial was before Judges Buffington, Hunt, McPherson and Woolley. Associated with Mr. Lindsbury were Joseph H. Choate of New York, John G. Johnson of Philadelphia, C. A. Severance of St. Paul, and David A. Reed of Pittsburgh. Soon after the courts had decided against the government in the litigation Mr. Lindabury became, by the retirement of Franics L. Stetson, the General Counsel of the Steel Corporation.


Quite as conspicuous were his parts in the New Haven Railroad con- troversies and in the Pujo Congressional Committee's investigation of the "Money Trust." He was the personal counsel of the late John P. Morgan in the "Money Trust" investigation and represented both Mr. Morgan and William Rockefeller in the New Haven litigation.


Mr. Lindabury was honored with the degree of L. L. D. by Rutger's College in 1904, and by Princeton University in 1915. He has a farm at Bernardsville, covering several hundred acres which is noted for its fine herd of Guernsey cattle.


He is President of the New Jersey Interstate Park Commission and a member of several leading clubs in New York and New Jersey.


GUSTAV LINDENTHAL-Metuchen .- Civil Engineer. Born at Brunn, Austria, May 21, 1850: son of Dominik and Franciska (Schmutz) Lindenthal; married at New York, on July 10, 1902. to Gertrude, daughter of Leopold and Matilda Weil (Mrs. Linden-

thal died October 21, 1905) :- 2nd married at Durham, N. C., on February 19, 1910, to Carrie, daughter of Charles M. Herndon. Children : Franciska, born November 24, 1913.


Gustav Lindenthal had made his name particularly well known among New Jersey people by his advocacy of the construction of a bridge across the North River from the Jersey Heights to New York, as early as 1887. The bridge was planned under the Pennsylvania Railroad auspices by the North River Bridge Company, and $100,000,000 was its contemplated cost. In the fall of 1901, however, the Pennsylvania Railroad Company de- cided to enter New York through tunnels under the river and the proposed bridge was postponed to a more propitious time. Mr. Lindenthal was one of the Board of Engineers who designed and directed all of the tunnel work under the North and East Rivers in connection with the large Pennsylvania . Railroad station in Manhattan.


Mayor Seth Low, in 1902, named him Commissioner of Bridges for New York City. In that relation he established the practice of architectural design- ing of the city's bridge struc- tures, and made plans for the Blackwells Island (now Queens- boro Bridge), over the East River, and the Manhattan Bridge and for the reconstruc- tion of the old Brooklyn Sus- pension Bridge; also the first design for a gigantic combined Bridge Terminal and Municipal Building.


The Hell Gate Bridge over the East River, designed and built by Mr. Lindenthal, is the largest steel arch bridge in the world. It carries four railroad tracks over a span of 1017 feet between towers. Crossing from Long Island to Wards Island. it forms part of a masonry and steel viaduct three miles long in- cluding a long bridge over Little Hell Gate and a Lift Bridge over Bronx Kill. The bridge work contains 90.000 tons of steel and cost about $25,000,000.


Mr. Lindenthal obtained his college education in Brunn and Vienna. He began his professional career as an assistant in the engineering depart- ment of the Austrian Empress Elizabeth Railroad in 1870. He was assis- tant engineer of the Union Construction Co. (Union Baugesellschaft ) in Vienna, engaged in building an inclined plane and railroad (1872-73). and was division engineer of the Swiss National Railroad, in charge of location and construction during 1873-74. In 1874 he emigrated to America and has achieved a foremost place among the leading engineers of the United


330


Lines


States. He was first engaged as assistant engineer in the erection of the Centennial Exhibition permanent buildings in Philadelphia during 1874- 1877; then with the Keystone Bridge Co. until 1879, engaged on bridge con- struction in Chicago and Pittsburgh, and during 1879-'81 was bridge engi- neer of the Atlantic & Great Western Railroad, now known as the New York, Pennsylvania & Ohio Railroad of the Erie System. Thereafter Mr. Lindenthal established himself as an independent engineer with his main office in Pittsburgh, where he had a large professional practice. It in- cluded the building of many important bridge structures, too numerous to mention, the surveys and construction of railroads, trolley lines, wharves, tunnels and difficult foundations. In 1892 Mr. Lindenthal transferred his office from Pittsburgh to New York, but his practice as advisory and con- sulting engineer on bridge, tunnel and railroad construction extends to all parts of the continent and also abroad.


Mr. Lindenthal is the author of numerous professional papers and re- ceived the Rowland prize from the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1883. He received from the Polytechnical School in Dresden the degree of Doctor of Engineering honoris causa, the only American Engineer so honored by a German University. Mr. Lindenthal also received the gold medal at the International Technical Art Exhibition in Leipzig in 1913 for his plans of the Hell Gate arch bridge. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, a member of the Institution of Civil Engineers in London, of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers, Corresponding Member of the Ingenieur and Architekten-Verein in Vienna, member of the Verein Deut- scher Maschinen Ingenieure and of other professional societies, member of the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York and of the State of New Jersey, and of the Merchants Association of New York, and of several social clubs in New York. His country estate near Metuchen is known as "The Lindens,"

JOB H. LIPPINCOTT-Newark, (742 Parker Street. )-Con- tractor. Born in Jersey City, September 11, 1880; son of Job H. and Keziah M. Lippincott ; married at Jersey City, April 15, 1908 to Alice Evarts, daughter of Charles E. Evarts of Jersey City.


Children : Job H .; Elizabeth E.


Job H. Lippincott first came into public notice when Henry O. Witt- penn, now Naval Officer of the Port of New York, was Mayor of Jersey City. Mr. Lippincott has a natural aptitude for politics-his father had been in the swim before him-and he was an effective worker for Mr. Wittpenn's election. Subsequently he organized the Young Men's Auxiliary Committee as an adjunct to the Democratic State Committee and rendered valuable service in some of the gubernatorial and presidential campaigns.


In recognition of his work in his behalf, Mayor Wittpenn appointed Mr. Lippincott a member of the City Excise Board, and later to a seat on the Police Board. Mr. Lippincott eventually became President of the Police Board and served there until the Mayor appointed him a Tax Com- missioner.


Mr. Lippincott was an ardent supporter of the candidacy of Woodrow Wilson for Governor in the campaign of 1910; and when Gov. Wilson appointed David S. Crater to be Secretary of State, Mr. Crater selected Mr. Lippincott as Assistant Secretary of State. In connection with his duties as Assistant Secretary Mr. Lippincott was given charge of motor vehicles, and he organized the state's machinery for dealing with the owners of autos that were then coming into general use. The auto prevalence made new roads and traffic regulations necessary, and Mr.

Lippincott was Chairman of the Commission that drafted the present New Jersey Traffic Act, the first of its kind passed by any state in the Union. When Secretary of State Crater died, Mr. Martin, who succeeded him, displaced Mr. Lippincott as Assistant Secretary of State and Com- missioner of Motor Vehicles with James B. Dill, of Paterson ; and Mr. Lippincott engaged in the contracting business with Warren Brothers Company at 51 Church Street, New York.


Mr. Lippincott's father was the noted Justice of the Supreme Court before whom the ballot box stuffing fraternity in Jersey City was tried in the SO's and by whom sixty-four of them were sent to the state prison. Mr. Lippincott was educated at Hasbrouck Institute, Jersey City and at Rutgers College and upon leaving school was engaged by the Commercial Trust Company. He is a member of the Machinery Club, (New York City), the Cartaret Club, (Jersey City), and the Union and Forest Hill Golf Clubs of Newark.


FRANK T. LLOYD-Camden .- Jurist. Born at Middletown, Del., on October 29, 1859; son of Horatio Gates and Caroline Elizabeth (Newell) Lloyd; married at Camden, on February 22, 1887, to Mary E. Pelouze, daughter of John A. and Anna B. Pelouze, of Philadelphia.


Children : Ethel Lea, born December 22, 1887; Frank T. Jr., born June 25, 1895; Mary P., born July 30, 1899.


Frank T. Lloyd had already become interested in public affairs when New Jersey was torn by the excitements attending the excesses of the "Jockey Legislature" of 1893. The race track men had captured control of both houses; and Thomas Flynn, Speaker of the Assembly, was the starter at Thompsons track in Gloucester City. Gloucester City is in the immediate vicinity of Camden and the people there were particularly agi- tated. The demonstrations against them, begun in Elizabeth, found ready echo at the other end of the state; and Mr. Lloyd was a large factor in organizing the sentiment for action, and crystalizing it into a law and order body which finally brought the gamblers to book in prosecutions under the laws passed in 1895-'96.


In later years when Mr. Lloyd was in the legislature the "marrying business" of the parsons of Camden and other parts of the state had risen into a scandal of scarcely less magnitude. He was elected to the Assembly for the two terms at '96 and '97, being in the latter of these years Chair- man of the House Judiciary Committee. The states of New York and Pennsylvania had, then, just both passed laws requiring marriage license ; and couples who, for one reason or another, did not care to comply with the regulations, swarmed across the ferries from Philadelphia and New York to avail themselves of the easier marrying system prevalent here. Some ministers at the two ends of the state found a bonanza in the wed- ding fees. Their rivalries for wedding fees in the end made an unwhole-


334


Loomis


some scandal that in time forced the Legislature to drastic suppressive measures.


The fore-shadow of these conditions came during Judge Lloyd's term in the Assembly ; and he planned and drew and secured the passage of new laws regulating the marriage ceremony. The act, requiring among other things the license that had already been enacted in New York and Pennsylvania, has since been known as the "Lloyd Marriage Law." The more scandalous conditions that arose later required the enactment of even more drastic legislation for their suppression.


Judge Lloyd's line runs back into Colonial history. The Lloyds and Newells are familiar names in its history. He was educated at the Middle- town Academy ; and, going to Camden, in 1875, with a view of becoming a lawyer, took up the work of a printer for the means of livelihood mean- while. While he was "at the case", he entered his name in the law office of James Otter- son in Philadelphia and was ad- mitted in 1882 as a member of the bar of the State of Penn- sylvania. Fifteen years later he was admitted to the bar of New Jersey and became a coun- selor in February, 1900, In 1889 the Prosecutor of Camden county died ; and the court de- signated Mr. Lloyd to serve ad interim. Gov. Voorhees in 1900 named him to the Senate for Prosecutor for the full term, and Gov. Stokes in 1905, re- appointed him. A year later Gov. Stokes promoted him to the Bench of the Circuit Court, and his reappointment by Gov. Fiel- der in 1914, is noted as the first instance in which a Governor has given reappointment in that court to a member of the opposite party. The bar of Judge Lloyd's Circuit was unanimous in requesting it.


Judge Lloyd was also a member of the Franchise Commission whose recommendations were subsequently enacted into law. His memberships are with the American Institute for Scientific Research, the English So- ciety for Psychical Research, the American Geographical Society, and the American Defense Associations. He is connected with the Presbyterian Church.

DAVIS WILLIAM LUSK-Newark, (48 Berkeley Avenue. )- Clergyman. Born in Washington County, Pa .; son of Jonathan and Jane N. (Davis) Lusk; married at Newark. October 23, 1883. to Martha Louise Winans, daughter of William H. and Sarah M. (Dickerson) Winans, of Newark.


Lusk


Children : Mary Edith ; Davis Winans; Mildred Dickerson.


Davis William Lusk is Presbyterial Superintendent of the Presby- tery of Newark, Permanent Clerk of the Presbytery, President of the Job Haines Home for Aged People, President of the Presbyterian Hospital in Newark, Secretary of the New Jersey Temperance Society, and since 1887 has been either Secretary, Treasurer or Chairman of the Committee of Presbyterial Church Extension in the Presbytery of Newark. Dr. Lusk's work as Presbyterial Superintendent has to do with the advance work of the Presbytery, especially among the foreign speaking people, and includes Newark, Bloomfield, Montclair, Caldwell, Verona, Arlington, Kearny and Irvington. He entered upon this particular service in 1910 and one year later he relinquished the pastorate of the Sixth Presby- terian Church, Newark, where he had served for twenty-six years.


Frank C. Haines gave the initial money for the founding of the Job Haines Home for Aged People, named in memory of his father, who was an elder in Dr. Lusk's Church. This was done at the suggestion of Dr. Lusk, who, elected Vice President, served in that capacity until in 1910 he was elected President to succeed Dr. Frazer. He was one of the princi- pal founders of the Presbyterian Hospital, and became President of its Board of Trustees October 5, 1910. The hospital has grown into one of the important institutions of the city.


Dr. Lusk is of Scotch and Scotch-Irish descent, the family coming originally from Ayershire, Scotland; but his father was born in Allegheny County, Penna., and his mother in Washington County, Penna., Washing- ton County was celebrated for three things-fine wool sheep, winter wheat and Presbyterian preachers-and is said to have produced more Presby- terian preachers than any other similar territory in the world. As a boy he attended a district school. Following this he went for a short time to a private teacher, and then was a student in Canonsburg Academy,- which occupied the buildings of the former Jefferson College before removal and union with Washington College. In 1873 he entered Westminster College, New Wilmington, Pa. He was Junior orator in 1876. In 1877 he was graduated and in the Fall of that year entered Union Theological Seminary (New York) from which he was graduated in 1880. In 1905 he received the degree of Doctor of Divinity from Westminster College.
