Dutch Schultz (born Arthur Simon Flegenheimer; August 6, 1901 – October 24, 1935) was an American mobster based in New York City in the 1920s and 1930s. He made his fortune in organized crime-related activities, including bootlegging and the numbers racket. Schultz's rackets were weakened by two tax evasion trials led by United States Attorney Thomas Dewey, and also threatened by fellow mobster Lucky Luciano.
Schultz asked the Commission,the governing body of the American Mafia, for permission to kill Dewey, in an attempt to avert his conviction. They refused. When Schultz disobeyed them and made an attempt to kill Dewey, the Commission ordered his murder in 1935. Schultz was shot at a restaurant in Newark, New Jersey, and died the next day.

Through the completion of the heavy new bridges over the Hackensack and the Passaic Rivers, the Lackawanna Railroad has been enabled to run much heavier equipment over its Morris and Essex Division. The first tangible benefit due to these improvements is now to result to the inhabitants of Newark, the Oranges, Morristown, and other important suburban towns along the Lackawanna.
