HIS LETTER READ IN THE CHURCH. He Has Separated from His Wife, and Has Already Gone Into Seclusion. But very few people in this city have forgotten how Catholic Church circles were stirred up about four years ago by the elopement of the Kev. Father Butler and Miss Alary Theresa Brady. Father Brady was au assistant priest at St. Bridget's Church ou Montgomery street· very popular and talented. He was not more than thirty years old. Miss Brady was one of three accomplished daughters of the late Undertaker Brady, and lived on Jersey avenue, between Newark and Jersey avenues. She was a general favorite in society, and when the news of her elopement with a priest was made known to the public through the columns of the Sunday Mousing News exclusive ly, it fell like a thunder clap. Her family at first refused to believe it, but were finally forced to do so when she and Father Butler wrote them that he had abandoned his priestly profession and that they were married at Easton, Pa. Later the family learned that the couple were living happily in Chicago, where the priest had secured employment of a literary kind, but that his remuneration was insufficient to maintain his house hold expenses. To aid her husband do this Mrs. Butler arranged with Mr. Hugh Coyle, the executor 01 the Brady estate, so that sho could receive her portion or some of it. This money kept them from want. WHY THE SEPARATION? While at Chicago a child was born, and it is said that since then another one has been added to the family. Becoming dis satisfied with Chicago, Father Butler and his family transferred their residence to Brooklyn, where thev lived until a few months ago. It appears that here troubles came thick and fast, and that the hitherto happy life the husband and wife had en joyed became embittered. ΓΑΤΠΕΠ BUTLER. It is said that tue principal trouble be tween them was caused by his regret that he was no longer an active priest. He knew, it is said, that he had lost all that his ambition had led him to look forward to, and that in consequence his hitherto amicable disposition became soured. Whether that was the only reason that caused him to separate a short time ago from his family after they had moved to New York from Brooklyn, was not known to my informant, but he thought there were other reasons. A LETTER OF CONTRITION. Yesterday the parish of St. Bridget re ceived a second and equally great sur prise. When the Gospel had been read i atlier Hanley said he would preach no sermon, but instead he would read them a letter which Bishop Wigger had sent him for that purpose. The letter, he said, was from Thomas E. Butler—he did not say "Father Butler"—who was once as sistant priest in this parish. This is the letter:— Hoboken, N. J., August 9, 1889. Most Ret. Father:—After four years of greut scandal to the Church, and of torture to my own conscience, I have determined, with the grace of God, to abandon my sinl'ul course, and to atone for the past, as far as in my power lies. I know tliat I have sinned most grevioualy, and that I am not worthy to be readmitted into the Church, from which my unpriestly life has banished me, but I have not lost my faith nor my coniidence in the meroy of God, against whom alone I have sinned. I alone am responsible for the sacrilegious cere mony of attempted marriage, and the great wrong which I have thereby inflicted on an inno cent girl. Both of us. however, liave severed l'or ever the relations which caused this scandal, and intensified the same in St. Mary's parish, Jersey City, to which sho belonged, and in St. Bridget's, ν here I acted as assistant priest. I implore par don for my shameful conduct from the people of those two parishes, as well as from all others who may nave been in any manner affected by my err.mplc. I know that I have forever for fnitari tho r»unAi'tnf inv frtrmni* nrioKtu and that there is, in consequence, no prospect or hope of my ever exercising priestly functions iu 'their midst again. I, however, ask the charity of their prayers in whatevor asylum it may be your pleasure to place me. Asking again, 'with all mv heart, pardon of all whom I may have scandalized, and asking of yourself. Most Kev. Father, pardon for the great mortification and Borrow T. have caused you, I remain your most unworthy servant, Tiios. E. Butler. TUB LESSON OF THK 110UB. When Father Hanley hud ceased read ing hi3 voice was filled with sobs that found au echo from nearly half of the two thousand parsons present. Except these sobs and sighs nothing else was heard until, in a solemn voice, in which mingled much pity and affection, Father Hanley told the congregation ouce more the history of Father Butler's fall from the priesthood. He said that the scandal caused by the priest, through his unholy alliance, had extended far and wide, and beside having been told in all the papers in this county had been extensively copied all over Europe and in Australia. He dwelt with inexpressible sadness on the conduct of Father Butler's practical ruin ation of the girl and said he believed sin cerely that the progress of the parishion ers had so turned tho heart of the fallen priest that he was compelled by them to write his letter of contrition and self humiliation. During the four masses held at the church and at vespers Father Hanley said substantially the same thing. When I saw him last night after vespers he ap peared much affected. "Father," said I, "will you permit me to have the letter for publication in The J ε lis κ y City News?" "I have expected to have you call on me for it," he replied, "and here it is." As he said this lie drew from his pocket the letter above printed and handed it to me. AN ASYLUM IN CANADA. "Will Father Butler be received back as a priest!"' •'My son," said he solemnly, "once a priest a priest forever." "Yes, 1 know that, but will he ever be given a parish?" "It is rumored that he will never be placed in charge of a parish again in the United States." ■'Where will he go?" "He will probably be sent to a monas tery In Canada, but how long he may re main an inmate I do not know." "Will any communication With Rome be necessary to reinstate him or reclaim him?" I asked. "None whatever, for the Bishop has sole jurisdiction in the matter. Ah! my son, it is an awful thing," he replied, with a sigh. FATIIER BUTLER GONE. Information having reached this office thaj Father Butler wa? at Father Corri gan's, in Hcboken, I called at St. Mary's Church, Hoboken, this morning. "Father Butler," said Father Corrigan, "was here, but he has left in accordance with arrangements made between him self and Bishop Wigger. I don't know where he is or where he has gone, except that he has left this country never to re turn. My impression is, however, that he has gone to some monastery in Eu rope." 'When did he leave the conntryi" .1 inquired. "I am not at liberty to say," replied Father Corrigan, "but I will say that it was about the middle of September." "When did he come to the pastoral resi dence." "In the early part of July," was the reply. "No one knew that he was here," continued the Rev. Father," not even the members of the household. One or two priests knew of it, but the majority were entirely unaware of his presence in the city." HIS CAUSE FOR LEAVING. "Did Father Butler ever mention hi3 reasons for leaving his wife?" "Now you are asking me too much," he replied. "I really don't know, but my impression is that they became tired of each other. I also think that Father Butler was tormented with the thought that as long as he continued to live with this woman be could never have anything to do with the Catholic Church. He had been brouorht un in the Catholic Church and loved it, and the thought of becoming a Protestant was worse to him than all the torments of purgatory." "I suppose you know that after a man has been ordained a priest, which is not until he is twenty four or twenty-five years old, when he is supposed to know his own mind he is considered a priest by the church whether he be in heaven or hell. In the Greek church a priest is permitted ι ο marry, but in the Roman church he must maintain his chastity. If you wish any further information as to Father Butler's residence here you must see Bishop Wigger." THE WIFfS STORY. The Marriage Annulled—Their Life Was Happy. When I went to Newark this morning I called at the house of her uncle, John Ryan, of No. 119 Tichenor street. The house is a well shaded one, and stands with its gable end to the street. Between the hall door and dining room window is a vine that partially screens the window. There was no bell on the door and I rapped for admittance and heard a voice exclaim:— "There is one at the door now." "Don't let him in," said the voice. I waited a reasonable time and again knocked, and then 1 heard voice No. I •say:—"He's there yet." I patiently waited and a third time knocked, and as I did so a washerwoman came from the base ment. I asked if Mrs. Ryan was at home and she said yes. Immediately afterward Mrs. Ryan, a good natured looking woman, opened the door. "I want to see Mrs. Butler, if you please," I said. "She is not here," was the calm re sponse. "1£ you tell lier tnat i am trom jersey City, perhaps she may be at home," I mildly insinuated. "From Jersey City," said she; "wait a moment, I will see." I had just made myself comfortable in the parlor, which was cosily furnished, when Mrs. Ryan returned and said Mrs. Butler did not want to see any reporters. We conversed on this subject some time and finally she said she would again speak to Mrs. Butler. Her errand was3uccessful this time, and soon after Mrs. Butler entered the room. MRS. BUTLER PRESENTS HERSELF. She is a tall, well developed woman of twenty-five, has dark hair and eyes, and was attired in a neat fitting, dark colored wrapper. She expressed much regret that her do mestic troubles had been made the sub ject of so much publicity and told me frankly she did not desire to talk about them. "But," said I, "will you say what the trouble is between Father Butler and yourself?" "There was no trouble whatever. He was always very kind to me, and never gave me any cause to complain. If any one says that there was trouble or scandal they say what is not true," she answered indignantly, addinc, "It was his calling to be a Driest, and that is all." "How long have you been separated?" SEPARATED A MONTH. "Just one month and during that time I have been living Rt the home of my uncle." "Will you romain here or go back to Jersey City?" "I don't know; I have not been to Jer sey City since we were married; what business I have in connection with the estate was dono out of Jersey City." "WliHTi vira were married at Kaston Pa., where did yon then go?" "We went to Chicago, where we re mained several months and then went to Brooklyn, whence we went to New York." "Will you," I hesitatingly asked, "enter into proceedings to obtain a divorce?" The poor woman dried the tears in her eyes, and. bravely suppressing a sob, said in a tremulous voice. THIS DIVORCE ANNULLED. "The church has already attended to thac; it has annulled the marriage and Γ will now bear my maiden name." "But in case you should ever desire to marry again you would have to be di vorced by the civil law," I intimated. "Oh, don't talk of divorce!" was her sobbing reply; "not that, not that." Re covering her composure, she proudly said:—"I don't think of a divorce; I am a Catholic." After a painful silence for several moments I asked her how many children she had, and she said one, whose name was Arthur. "I wish you would please have con tradicted," said she suddenly, "any report that ha was unkind to me, for he never was." "When did you see Mr. Butler last?" X enquired. "Not since we separated, a mouth ago." "And have you had no correspondence with him during this time?" Again tears came in her eyes and after a moment's hesitation she quietly said:— "Pardon me, but I cannot answer the question." "Have you anything to say concerning your married life?" I asked. "No; nothing to say except that I have nothing to regret, for I was so kindly treated." '•Will you say whether your marriage was one of impulse or was it decided on some time before it took place?" "I do not wish to say, for it is all over npw," she answered with a weary sigh. "You knew the separation was to take place some time before it happened?" "Yes, it was a mutual arrangement." The Rev. Father Corrigan says that the Rev. Father Butler and Miss Brady were married by a Protestant minister and a Justice of the Peace,and that the Church cannot annul the marriage because the Church never recognized it. A CANDIE FOR HIS TEXT. THE REV. JOHX CRAWFORD'S NOVEL JU INC OURSE. Many Lcssoub In the Flames—The Sym bolism of the Ilushei, the Dark Lant ern and the Blended Light*. At the Trinity M. E. Church, on York street, Yesterday morning, the Kev. John Crawford delivered what he is pleased to term a candle sermon. All about him were grouped candlesticks and caudles. Other articles with which he illustrated his morniug lesâon were scattered about the rostrum till tho pulpit reminded me of a disarranged Catholic a'tar. The revereud gentleman first gave a short dis sertation upon "Labor, Property, Alms and Thrift." "These four blood relations, said he, "will form the text from which I will preach next Sunday morning. Now, what do we mean by a candle sermon? "A lighted candle is emblematic of a true Christian spirit, and a faithful con fession of Christ as we let the light of our caudle shine out. The ilrst point I wish to fasten your attention upon is that the Lord lights this candle. "For thou wilt light my candle; the Lord my God will enlighten my way. Psalm xviii, 28. •'When his candle shineth upon my nead, aud when by his light I walked throgh darkness. John xxix.;i." After lighting three caudles In one stick to typify the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, the eloquent minister held two un lighted candles in his had aud showed how impossible it was for one to light the other. "They remind me of two men trying to get a full confession of Christ in a public meeting," said he "They don't pray in private. They should go in private and get their candles lighted." UNUGHTED CANDLES. ι u-Ui-j Ji the minister rattled then:. They were as tinkling cymbals, and sounding brass. "You see, I can't light this box with the lighted candle, I hold it in my other hand. I am reminded of some poor sin ners, who come to church and sit in the back seats. They are cursed by drink, profanity, etc. The minister fails to touch their hearts. They pass into the streets again, into the saloon and other resorts where they wrestle with the devil. Lord forbid that the church should become a box of unlighted caudles. "These snuffer»," continued the min ister, picking up a pair of old fashioued ones from a table» "are like some of thoee critics whose fault findings and criti cisms snuff the candles out. They ex tinguish the light. The devil is a great critic and a great extinguisher. UNDER A BUSHEL. "My second point is:—Be careful not to hinder the light God has given." A ripple of laughter at this juncture broke over the congregation as the min ister brought forward a half bushel meas ure. He had been unable to find a bushel measure, but it served well enough to illustrate his purpose. "There are some men who hide their Christianity beneath worldly pleasures and business pursuits. They are like the candle I place tinder this measure. Some times the light is covered so long it dwin dles. Take it out and place it on top of the measure. Like this, see? "Then," continued the minister, ex hibiting a dark lantern, "here is some thing which typifies those young men who have what .right bo termed con venient Christianity. They often hide their light on one occasion and let it shine ou others. They go to ttie theatre on Monday night. They shut their light off like this. See? Then they come to prayer meeting on Tuesday night, and turn on the light like this. See? Friday night they go to the ball. Saturday they specu late in Wall street. The light is turned off. Sunday they come to church. The light is turned on again. The theatre and the ball room are good enough places, if you are strong enough to convert them into a power for God. Otherwise they are not, and are to be shunned." BLENDED LIGHTS. Apt illustrations were made with lights which typified delicacy of feeling which needed protection and others Which craved dash, color and excitement. White lights were exhibited as emble matic of purity, green lights for jealousy, etc., etc. But the prettiest illustration was that of seven candles of different hues in one line. They represented the Method ists. the Baptists, the Presbyterians, the Episcopalians, the Congregationaiists, the Quakers and the Lutherans. ".Looking at them crosswise," said the pastor, "we ask, what's the use of so many denominations? Let us look at them linewise. This way the lights are in sympathy. That is the way to view the churches of Christ." The last was an illustration of the light in the wiudow, which could not be put out from the outside. The entire sermon was listened to with close attention by a large congregation. 0ITÏ EMPLOYEES AT THE BAT. A Nine from tlic Pipe Yard Thrushes the Water Worlts Team.

Edward Mars and Elizabeth Mack, claiming residences in Brooklyn, were behaving improperly on Corneilson ave nue last evening, and were arrested by Policeman Harmes. Justice Wanser sent them to Snake Hill for thirty days this morning. _ _ A Runaway Waif. A ten-year-old girl, known only as Maggie, was recently adopted by Patrick Kenney, of No. 1 Factory street, from Snake Hill. Yesterday she ran away from home, and was found by the police wandering about Grand street last even ing. She was glad to return home. Archie Has ftHut 'Em All Up. Greenville was quieter yesterday than it has been in a long time. Not a saloon was open, and Cap tain McKaig, who has lately been transferred, went about personally to see that the excise laws were enforced. Strict orders were given to the men to see itiat every place was closed. X myself visited all the saloons along Ocean ave nue, from Bostwick to Danforth, in an endeavor to lind a saloon open, but was unsuccessful. FATHER TElt WOERT'S VACATION. Xt Came Unannounced to III· People and Surprised Tliem. When the He v. Father Maurice Beron, O. S. P., appeared and aunounced from the altar of St. J ohn's Roman Catholic Church at the yesterday morning's masses that F ather Ten Woert was away, and that he would officiate during the absenee of the pastor, expressions of surprise swept over the faces of many lu the large congregation that attended. As Father Ter Woert, known to be so thoroughly methodical in all his church relations, had given his people no notice of his absence, and as the new priest did not venture any explanation beyond the mere announcement, a number of idle conjectures Anally culminated in the thought that perhaps Father Ter Woert had for some reason left the parish. I found the Rev. Father Maurice Beron this morning at Father TerWoert's home, and asked him what had become of the absent clergyman. "He is merely taking his vacation; why?" "I understand .the announcement occa sioned some surprise yesterday. Will his vacation be a lengthy one?" "He will be back about the iirst of next month. I do not see why his absence should occasion any surprise. He pro cured hie leave of absence from Bishop Wigger. He had overworked him self thie summer and a few weeks' vacation was absolutely essential to the maintenance of his good health. I am from the monastery. I was placed hero by Abbot Hilary Pfrangle to officiate during Fathor Ter Woert's absence. Probably I did not make the matter sufficiently plain to the congregation. I am under the impression Father Ter Woert's announcod his proposed vacation from the altar. I have not seen him. He left on Tuesday morning; I came here the same evening, Father Ter Woert lias relatives in Minnesota, whom he was anxious to visit. Father Stejrcher, of St. Peter's parish. Newark, left with him. I do not know whether he went as far as Minnesota, but he went in the same direction. No, I have heard nothing about his mind being affected over the robbery committed by his intimate friend's son." A prominent lady member of the St. John's congregation told me that the Rev. Father Ter Woert had combined a pleas ure trip to Minnesota with one of busi ness. KIERNAN'S ARRESTED. The Man Who Starved His Children to Death on Grove Street. The Jersey City News a few days ago contained a story of the discovery by Poormaster Hewitt that Daniel Kiernan and his wife, of Grove street, were drink ing up their earnings and allowing tneir children to starve. One little flva-year-old girl named Katie was found on the floor in α bundle of rags suffering the last stages of starvation. Her piteous appeal for a bite of bread aroused sympathy all over the city. The mother was arrested at the time, but she was allowed to go on her parole that she might look after the little ones. Kiernan had fled, but he showed up again last niglit, and he was at once taken Into custody to answer a charge of cruelty to children. This morning Justice Stilsing held liini for examination. When the house was visited yesterday it was learned that Mrs. Kiernan was off on another spree and had not been seen all day. Little Katie is still alive at the hospital, but the physicians there have no hope of her recovery. THE GAP PERRY WAR. Counsel for Mills and Conroy Addreeg Chancellor McGill. The Gap ferry war was continued be. fore Chancellor McGill today, and a map showing all the points of the Gap that figure la the contcst was introduced. Ex-Mayor Collins, representing ex-Fire Commissioner Mills, \ylio conducts the present ferry across the gap, argued that Mr. Mills was entitled to an absolute in junction restraining Mr. Conroy from in terfering with any property necessary for Mr. Mills' ferry. Councellor William A. Lewis made α lengthy argument, claiming that it was the privilege of any citizen to run a suit able ferry over the gap. He treated with scorn the claim made by Mr. Mills, that a sunken scow, a catamaran that was a failure, and other tilings were necessary for ferry purposes. Counsel claimed for Mr. Conroy that there was plenty of room for both men at the Gap and that Mr. Conroy had no intention of injuring or destroying the property of Mr. Mills.

Nelson Schulters, who is employed—or was—in thu railroad electric light plant down the street, was arraigned betore Pclico Justice Stilsing this morning for stealing some trilles from the place. Benjamin H. Titus, who appeared for the company, said he had been instructed by his boss not to make a complaint, and the prisoner was discharged. A Chiltl Badly Burned. Joseph Havert, a five-year-old boy, liv ing at No. 436 Grove street, was amusing himself by swinging a tomato can with Are in it by a string this morning. His clothing caught fire and he was severely burned. His parents summoned a physi cian, but doubt of the little fellow's re covery is entertained. Another Veteran Gone. Martin Iiyan, a veteran, who served as a private in Company A, of the Fifty ninth New York Regiment, during the war, died at his home on the Heights yesterday. He was η member of Ztibriskie Post, which will attend his funeral to morrow. Sent Back to Newark.

Echoes of tile Columbus Convention Masons Talk of Reviving the Chapter of Bose Croix of Heredom Notes from Many Local Lodges. The session of the Sovereign Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows at Columbs, Ohio, was the finest and most successful ever held by the order. Every State and Ter ritory was represented, and delegates were presont from Europe and Canada. There was a parade, of course, and it is estimated that twenty thousand men were in line, as the majority of the subordinate lodges from Ohio and neigh boring States attended, and the military companies of Columbus, Toledo and other cities participated in the demonstration. It gave the order a great boom in Ohio. An un fortunate accident occurred. Grand Sire Underwood was thrown from his horse and received severe injuries. His report to the delegates showed that the order is in a prosperous condition, and had grown rapidly during the pass decade. The order was originally the Manchester Union, and thero is 11 sympa thy between the two. The report shows the numerical strength of the order on Junuary 1 of this year was as follows:— Number of white Odd Fellows on the globe January 1, 1689:—Independent order, 055,787; Manchester Unity, 688,402. Total, 1.841,275. Num ber of patriarchs, militant departments, *7, an increase of 1; component cantons, 540$ an in crease of 35; band cantons, 3, an increase of 2; chevaliers made, 3,135, an increase of 77; canton members, 19,223, an increase of 1,741; value of military outfit and other assets of cantons. $782, 52S, an increase of ftl 13,094.

He is delighted with the bril liant showing made by the order and enthusiastic over its increase, and pros perity. The interested lodges are quiet concern ing Secretary .\fcWilliams of Guiding Star Lodge, who alio held picnic money belonging to the Daughters of Rebecca. Mc Williams jumped the town short in his accounts with his employer, Captain Jackson. If his lodge books are not correct and he has not made returns to the Daughters of liebecca, the fact is kept a profound secret. The members of the order questioned say that they know nothing of it. Notes About the Odd Fellows, Fraternity Lodge worked the initiatory degree on Thursday night. Martha Washington Lodge, Daughters of Rebecca, added three members last Thursday night. Fraternity Lodge and Granite Lodtte, of Newark, will play their postponed Tiase ball game at Hoboken next Thursday.

At the last meeting of Court Hamilton Brother Flaherty was presented with a locket and Brother Farrell with a badge. Free anil Accepted Μηκοηπ* There are ambitious men in all orders» and ma3onary of course has its share of those who desire to form a branch which will be exclusive, and only the select few will be admitted to the society. The resuscitation of the corpse, the Sovereign Chapter of 1 ose Croix of Heredom, is an instance of this. This ornamental insti tution surrendered the ghost almost a century ago. it was exliumad and given new life by a few last week, and to convey the impression it is absolutely new it was giveu a new name, it lias been christened the Provincial Grand IxHlge of the Royal Order of Scotland for the United Status. The?" efforts of a few to establish a little circle of their own do not disturb the rank and tile of this great order. When a man takes his Μ. ΛΙ. degree in the su bordinate lodge ho is as far advanced a? is actually nec essary. He gets just as much recognition as the man who has taken all the degrees in the numerous gilt edged, but useless brandies. A third degree man is as much a Mason as one who has reached a place in the thirty third degree lodge, whose membership Is limited, and death alone makes a va cancy. The (esthetic gentlemen can go on with their organization of French, Sc ish and other degrees, it does not in the sightest affect the stand ing of the order, and unfortunately gives room lor criticism and an impression to strangers that the superb institution is engaged in a bitter quarrel, when as a matter of fact the trouble is between a few and is of no moment so far as the full fledged Master Mason is concerned.

An article in one of Gotham's sensa tional journals yesterday alleged that a mysterious individual known to the resi dents of the Heights as "Jack the Peep er" had made his reappearance in the vicinity of Bergen Square after an ab sence of nearly a year. Alleged midnight visite to the resi dences of Mrs. Phoebe Downing, Mrs. Kopp, Mrs. Van Wagener and others on Idaho avenue furnished the basis for the story. The article was pure fiction from be ginning to end. Three weeks ago a sneak thief visited the apartments of Mrs. Kopp during her absence, and after packing up a quantity of clothing was about to leave when he was discovered by Mrs. Kopp's daughter Hattie. His visit was paid in broad day light and is the only event that lias stirred up the neighborhood for a long time. Kvery resident of Idaho and Styvesant avenues visited by a Jersey Citv News reporter today disclaimed all knowledge of Jack the Peeper, with tho exception of Mrs. Downing. She confesses to have heard and seen him a dozen times within the past fortnight or so, and each time endeavored to riddle him with a rifle, but without success. The neighbors say the rifle practice of Mrs. Downing is simply an amusement of hers. The wiiole truth of the matter is that Idaho avenne and the Hill generally is as free from a poeping Jack as is Police Headquarters. TO REORGANIZE. Yesterday's Meeting; of the Unite Framers and Carpenters. A mass meeting of the local contingent of the association of United Kramers and Carpenters was held yesterday afternoon at the Johnston Avenue House, in the Lafayette district. The assemblage numbered about one hundred men, and represented the remnant of what was at one time one of the most flourishing branches of the or ganization in Hudson county, together with delegates from the branch unions of Greenville and Union Hill. For some time post many members of the organization have taken only a half hearted interest in their union and the cause it espouses, and have permitted it to dwindle away to such an extent that its strength anil standing in the general organization has been materially affected. The bosses, taking advantage of the state of affairs, have increased the hours of labor and now compel their employees to work to suit the conveniences of their UUi.BC». i.ut JUjai iiiciuucic, nivu γ ic »v of rallying the delinquents aud effecting η thorough reorganization of thiir par ticular orauch, called yesterday's meet iug, hoping that by the strength of unity they could eventually remedy these griev ances and regain their old position. The chairman was a stout, stumpy Teuton, with a long name and a loud voice and the orators, with one exception, expressed their views in the mother tongue. The exception was the one, oylv P. J. Daly, author and orator, poet and mechanic. No business of import ance was transacted. The Tcexnan Wouldn't Move On. Jacob Smiller, au iceman of No. 217 Park avenue, Hoboken, was arrested by Policoman Short on Saturday evening for refusing to move on when ordered. On his way to the station house he assaulted the policeman, and this morning was held for examination. Archie Giltfllian, one of the gang of young men who followed tho prisoner to the station house, was ar 1 rested also by Policeman Howard, charged with throwing stones at Police man Short. Ho was discharged this morning. Ifoboken Briefs. The old wooden building at the corner of Washington and Newark streets, Ho

boken, has been moved to make room for the new Hoboken Savings Institution, the building of which will be begun shortly. The sunken pavement in front of Public School No. 5 is not only a nuisance and a disgrace to the city, but is also dangerous to "persons passing. Many people have been thrown to the grouud and injured by tripping. Pat. Ward's liody Found. Shortly after noon the body of Patrick Ward was taken from the water at the foot of Jersey avenue, Jersey City. He had been missing for several days. Last Mfrht's Church Concert.

THE STBEET AND WATER BOARD. A Number of Bids Received for Sewer Contracts and Referred for Action at a Meeting Tonight. The members of the Board of Street and Water Commissioners were in excel" lent humor when President Somera called them to order this morning. Clerk Bouton was in good voice and rattled over the communications at a 2:40 gait. There was a striking unanimity in the Board's actions. Every motion offered was adopted by a unanimous vote. An application was received from M. J. Currell, the attorney for R R. Leipold and Lisette C. Jacobs, for the laying of water pipes in Pearsall avenue and the Old Bergen Road, to connect with the main sewer in Ocean avenue. The matter was referred. Bids were received for a sewer in Grove, street, between Grand street and Newark avenue. Nine contractors figured for the work. T. Harrington's bid of 811,950.50 waa the lowest, and he will Drobably get the contract. On the contract for the Henderson street sewer, between Wayne street and Newark avenue, Harrington was again the lowest bidder. His bid was $1,118.35. Contractor Edward Kelly stands the best chance to carry off the contract on the St. Paul's avenue sewer from Tour ville avenue to the Hackensack river; $1,337.30 was his figures. Contractors Henry and McGebney bid $1,427.08 for the work on the Sussex street sewer, and will probably be awarded the contract. The largest sewer for which, bids were reeeived this morning was the one on Pavonia avenue, from the Penn sylvania Railroad property to Newark avenue. Contractor Byrnes bid $15,710.50 and will probably be the one chosen. i'-jui; \ji wc wuuiavio rvux uo afrcuucu until this evening. Commissioner Dugan introduced a re solution, at the request, he said, of Mavor Cleveland, which provides for the paying of the repavement of streets from the special fund set aside for that purpose by the new charter, instead of levying one third of the expense upon the property owners. The fund is one-half of the money col lected for license fees. The resolution was referred to the Street Committee in conjunction with the Cor poration Council. Property owners after this will have to keep their sidewalks in better repair. They will be given four weeks to ao so after a notice has been served on them by the Board, and if they havo not at that time done as they were re quested, the work will be completed by the city at their expense. The work must be done according to the following specifications:— The new curb to be of the best blue stone not less than three feet in length, twenty inches wido and live inches thick, properly jointed, and dressed on ono face and 3et with the proper in clination. The curb now on the street may be reset (pro tided they are of proper length and are sound stone) wherever required so as to conform to the grade and line, and to be rejoiuted where re quired and set in a workmanlike manner. The old flagging may be relaid (provided it is of proper size and quality). When new flagging is required to be laid it shall be of the best quality of blue stone. The stones shall measure not less than eight superficial feet and no stone to be less than two inches in thickness. Each stone to be well dressed and not warped or imperfect upon the upper surface. The flagging shall belaid in clean, sharp sand or gravel four inches in depth. All grades and lines to be given by the Sur veyor under directions from the Chief En gineer. All surplus materials, earth, sand and refuse stones, shall be removed from the street and sidewalk at once. Proper fences or guards are to be erected whenever the safety of the public requires it. The owners will be held responsible for all damage to life, limb, or property. The Board finally took a recess until eight o'clock this evening, and then made a rush for dinner. RAS LEVY 18' RAIDED. A Party of Poker Players Taken from His Newark Avenue Den. When "Ras" Lewie came into promi nence as the champion fat man, he left his Erie Railroad job aud opened a saloon rumors have prevailed that the place was not Buch an one as a man of Ra3 Lewis' size should keep. The police learned yes terday thae he was violating not only the Sunday law by keeping his place open oa Sunday, but tnat lie was violating all the other laws by permitting a party of young men to gamble away their sub stance in his place. A raid was quietly arranged, and at an opportuue moment Policemen Buckbie, Daley and Cooper burst open the door of :he room, and surprised the players with their curds and chips in front of them. The young men arrested gave their names as Robert Brewing, James Johnston, John Slater, William Miller, Louis Kirk and Henry Shroeder. Somehow or other "lias" was not taken in. The prisoners waived examination in Police Justice Stilsing'e court this morn ing and gave bail to appear for trial. The Quldore Aaaoci&tlon. The Henry E. Quidore Association, of Hobo Ken, went on their annual excursion to Greenwood Lake. They chartered a special car and left the city behind them at half-past nine o'clock. When they ar rived at the lake dinner was served. After dinner various athletic games were indulged in. It was lato before the association left for Hoboken. At Ho boken they left· the car and marched to their headquarters on Washington street, where the excursion was voted a grand success and three cheers given for Mr. Quidore. Five Converts Baptized.

Several of the Republican papers have taken to "proving"' that since the reforms instituted by Governor Abbett went into effect, all need for reform legislation in the matter of taxation has come to an end. The fallacy of the argument is too clear to need demonstration. The Republican Legislature with which Governor Abbett had to deal took care to re UUVO une OVUUJU^llCKUta vu of reform to the lowest point that the public sentiment aroused by Mr. Abbett would allow. Still it is true that a certain very considerable re form was effected. Does it not then occur to the Re publican editors that the element of gratitude enters very largely into the present struggle. Governor Abbett alone deserves the credit for what has been done, and the more that is proven to be the greater the debt the taxpayers owe him. But even under that other defini tion of gratitude, "a lively sense of benefits to come," the people are all the more bound to eloct him. The close of the last Legislature, left the finances of the State in a dubious con_ dition. It is evident to all thoughtful, persons that a peculiarly able states man it wanted at the head of affairs for the next three years—one who has the courage to retrench and reform, to swell the income and to check the outgo, one who can neither be fright ened, cajoled, nor bought off from doing the people's work. That is just the sort of man Leon Abbett is. He is able, experienced, fearless and incorruptible. General (irubb has no intimacy with public affairs whatever. His abilities are those of an ordinary plain business man. He has had no opportuuity of showing any apecial backbone in pub lic crises, aud is very doubtful ■whether any tyro in politics could hope to exercise any personal control over public affairs. General Grubb ■would inevitably be the tool of Sewelj and the Republican railway ring. We mean to cast no aspersion on his per semai nonor. m un ordinary sense lie may be as incorruptible as ttie angel Gabriel, but there is no getting away from the fact that his governor ship would simply be the rule of Boss Sewell with Grubb as dummy. Of a certainty nothing could be more disastrous to the State than this, and assuredly the people will never allow it to come to pass. Our hebetudinous (by request) friend of the Trenton Times comes out strong again. He says:— The walloping that Grover Cleveland (rot at the hands of his countrymen but α short time ago has not taught him an3rthing. He has just sent out another wild yawp for free trade and can be depended upon to keep it up. Grover doesn't profit by experience, and in this he resembles his party. Our friend should read the news papers. He would find out, first, that a large majority of his fellow country men endorsed Grover Cleveland and the Democratic party with their votes, and that Mr. Cleveland was only de feated through our electoral system. He would find out also that Mr. Cleve land does not advocate free trade in the least, but thinks that the liions, trosities of the present absurd tariff should be abolished. The Washington weather prophet did a great service by giving advance notice of this drop in the temperature. An old resident of this city says that he never kuuw fail overcoats to come out with fewer creases or with less apparent indication of having passed the summer in trunks or in the not too tender care of the universal uncle. The reason of this is that every young man ,-ead the weather predictions in Thf, Jersey City Nkws, and thus was able to have his coat pressed be fore he absolutely needed to wear it. May Clergymen Smoke. The Newark Journal is gravely agi tating the question whether a clergy man may indulge in the fragrant weed without detriment to his priestly character or his sacred functions. We expect soon to have the question raised whether he may play croquet, chew a tooth pick, read the daily newspapers, or indulge in any form of light dissipation, ordinarily enjoyed by his fellow men. It is somewhat strange that such scruples should be entertained in an age of enlightenment. It is not easy sometimes to convince oneself of the bona fides of the man who enter tains them. That a clergyman or any other man should not avail him self of all the pleasures that Provi dence has afforded to cheer a not too joyous world, seems to us past all comprehension,—assuming of course that his indulgence involves no injury to others for which he would be morally accountable. The far fetched plans concerning evil example and the preposterous arguments drawn from isolated cases ttjjpeur lu us »υ Wiiuij aiuyicai «ι..« the weight given them bv otherwise sane people appears the leading wonder of the world. Is the fact that an occa sional absurd dude may do himself to death with cigarettes a valid reason why thousands of worthy men should be deprived of a comfort and solace which many rank among the most es timable pleasures of life. It is only necessary to go a step further to show how monstrous the principle is. It is a well known fact that pickled mus sels are occasionally fatal when too freely indulged in. Are we all, there fore, morally bound to give up eating them, to make the selling of them a crime, and is it particularly immoral in aclergyman to give way to their lus cious fascinations. It seems to us that the sooner we get away from such fanatical theories and notions, and devote our attention to the cult of moderation and good sense, the sooner intemperance and vice will disappear from our midst, and personal liberty and general pros perity will flourish in their stead. In a multitude of counsellors there are big possibilities of a row. This is the revised version of the old adage, and its truth is exemplified in the ex periences of that Now York World's Fair Site Committee. If thoir enter taining personalities continue they will soon give up hunting for a Fair site and begin to look around for a place to pitch a twenty-four foot ring· PERSONALS. Louis Habn, known as ''Ten-pin Lou," is look. ing γογ someone lo ιαακ« u umicu witu. Judge Lippincott honored John C. Besson with α seat beside him on the bench Saturday, and John C. appeared to like it, Mr. A. C. Nolte, of West Hoboken, is preparing to give his friends a royal time next Wednesday evening. It will be his birthday and the anni versary of his wedding. Mr. Edmund Brower, whom the "boys11 call by the less classic naine of "Tim," also happened into the world on the same date, so Nolte and Brower will celebrate together. An Implacable Foe to Monopolies. As predicted by us in our issue of July 27, the Trenton convention has wisely chosen for its standard bearer in the coming Gubernatorial con test Leon Abbett, of Hudson county. This distinguished citizen and accomplished statesman is too well known to the Democratic voters of this commonwealth to require at our hands any extended reference as to his sterling democracy, or eminent fitness for the high and honorable position the people are sure to call him to next November. But a pass ing word at this juncture may not be amiss in us while calling attention to the many claims possessed by the ex Grovemor upon the people of this State. He is of the people, by the people and for the people, an im placable foe to all monopolies, an enemy to grasping and arrogant corporations, while recognizing and appreciating every corporate right, still firm in his determination that no rights be vested in corporations that in any sense shall abridge the liberty or affect the equality of the v>rivate citizen. It is these and like principles which are recognized as the embodiment of pure Democracy that endears our champion to the'people, and it is for his steadfastness to euch principles that, the people will triumphantly place Leon Abbett in the Executive chair by one of the largest majorities ever given a Gubernatorial candidate in this State. The platform adopted by the con vennon is souiki in every clause ana deserves to be carefully read bv every thinking man in the State. We take pleasure in publishing it in full, and with the report of the convention, it will be found on our third page.— Mananquun Coast Democrat. AMUSEMENTS. Jacob»' lloboken Theatre.

Is Co-Education a Success At a banquet of the University of Texas, which is co-educational in all its departments, S. B. Maxey, ex-United States Senator, said:— "To the female students I beg to say that co-education of the sexes is no longer an experiment. It is a proved success. The just relations between the sexes are better understood than ever before in the world's history. Woman, without loos ening her hokl on that knightly respect and courtesy with which she has always been treated in our favored land, has proven herself intellectually a formidable competitor of that sex which in the very oiden, distant time proclaimed man to be the lord of humankind. Here, as else where, she has proven her right and abil ity to compete for honors. The moral in fluence of co-education is great and bene ficial to both sexes. The attention paid to female education during: the present century, ami especially 111 tne last nan ot it, is a high evidence of advancing civili zation. I glory in the civilization which educates the girl equally with the boy and gives employment to the woman equally with the man in all stations for which by nature and education she is fitted. Chicago Inter-Ocean, Ja^mnexe Tatooere. A Japanese tattooer of great skill and reputation has just opened a studio in Hong Kong. He receives his visitors in a small ollice full of fans, screens, topsy turvey pictures and sharp corners. On a big table in the middle of the room are pattern books. The visitor tells whether he wishes a humorous, pathetic, senti mental or religious emblem tattooed on his person, and, according to his answei, receives a volume of pathetic, sentimen tal or religious designs for examination. Most persons choose none of these de signs because they are too expensive. The tattooing with repesentations of ani mals is the cheapest and the most popu lar. A butterfly costs but il; three but terflies, $2.50; five butterflies, $4. A dragon, tho most expensive animal, costs $25. After the customer lias chosen his de sign, the tattooer leads him into the oper ating room, over the uoor of which hangs the notice;—"! never work while 1 am drunk." The customer lies ou a couch and bares the limb on which the design is to be done. The operator then pricks in the skin with flue needles the liues of the animal or scene ordered. He applies a little colored powder and a pinch of vasel ine to the spot he has pricked, and the job is doue. Ile can prick three butterflies in about forty minutes. The executiou of a big dragon, however, occtipies five hours A day or two after the operation the skin above the design couies off and all the lines become clear. The masterpiece of the Japanese tat tooer is the representation of a little fan covered with human ligures. This bit of tattooing adorns tho foie arms of a young English woman in Hong Kong.

The hands and nails are also kept clean, white, sjft ami supple by the daily use of lemou instead of soap. It also prevents chilblains. Lemon is used in intermittent fevers, mixed with strong, hot, black coffee, without sugar. Neuralgia, it is said, may be cured by rubbbing the part af fected with a cut lemon. It is valuable also to cure warts. It will remove dan druff by rubbing the roots of the hair with it.

An Australian colonist recently caused i to be Inserted in the newspapers the fol lowing brief announcement:—"Not hav ing heard u£ my wife for the past ten years. I intend to marry again—.Iohx Ιλλκυ, Dost otlice, Geelong A husband who has waited a whole decade in the hope that his errant spouse may turu up hardly appears ooen to the charge of be ing short, tempered, but unless the laws of the colony of Victoria already include a statute of limitations applicable to matters connubial and covering the ease of Mr. Ijeary, it would seem that that gentleman is. at length prepured to run the lisk of committing bigamy rather than continue any longer in the condition of single blessedness. Probably the above announcement is to be explained by a measure now before the parliament of Victoria and which will iu all probability shortly become law. This is the so-called divorce law amendment bill, by which in that portion of the British empire the dissolution of the marriage tie is to be greatly facilitated. By this measure a divorce may be granted on various grounds not hitherto admitted as justify ing so extreme a reinedv. Desertion or habirual drunkenness, with neglect or cruelty on the part of either husband or wife, will henceforth enable either to ob tain a divorce e the means of driving away from Its membership nearly all the democrats who belong to it.

Six years ago, when Tjeon Abbett opened I his campaign for Governor, about the ilrst j thing he promised, if clectod, was that there should be no State tax imposed on the people during his term of oifieè. He was elected and he kept his word. No State tax was imposed. Hut instead a law was passed, owing to Mr. Abbett's efforts, which compelled the railroad corporations to pay to the State £7,000,000 in taxes In live years. That was an average of $1,400,000 a year. Previously the railroad tax aggre gated only #400,000 a year. And the miscel laneous corporations-—those outside of railroads—which never before paid a dol lar of tax were forced to pay $400,000 a vear. One big insurance company last year paid the State a tax of 131,000. Be fore the Abbett law was passed that cor poration had never paid one cent into the State Treasury. And owing to the re ceipt of this large amount of revenue no State tax has been deemed necessary. Mr. Abbett reiterates the same promise this time. He says, if elected to a second term a3 Governor, he will sea to it that there shall be no State tax imposed.

I asked a member of the Democratic State Committee if he had heard a rumor that Senator Matt Quay and the Repub lican National Committee intended to take a hand in the campaign for the elec tion of General Grubb. He replied that he had heard of such α rumor. I told him I had been informed that a campaign fund of about fl50,000 would be raised to defeat Abbett. Senator Quay would raise $50,000, General Grubb would con tribute 50,000 himself, and the other $50,000 would come from the railroad cor porations. And, besides, the fund would be increased by local contributions. "1 have heard," said this committee man, "that such a fund would be raised. Even if it is it will not defeat Abbett. No corruption fund can buy up the honest voters of New Jersey, and Leon Abbett will poll a large majority of them." "You have no doubt of Abbett's elec tion, then?" "Certainly not. He will be elected by at least 7,000 majority and perhaps 10,000 or 15,000—-but 7,000 sure." "What do you think of Grubb's nom ination?" "General Grubb is a respectable man in every way, but he is on the wrong side of the house, aud he is no match for Leon Abbett in a live campaign such as we propose to make this one."

I j l'trellÎHt Carey Has Another Kncafrement —Record* of the Compatit»» lor tile Pennants—Talk of Wheelmen, Ath- letes and Markgmen. There iira no new developments là taut j unpleasant row between the Kosedale j and Active boatc lubs concerning that old boat house. The Actives are determined to have tljo house, and their rivals will not surrender until forced to do so. The! latter, in fact, holds that the house is its own, and is confident thut ft will prove ownership if the ease goes before the courts. The threats of lawyers have con sequently not in the slightest alarmed them. They mean to fight ϋΐκΐ fight hard. Other clrfb.s are looking forward to the winter and laying plaûs fur sport. The Hillsides will form a boiling club. The Valencia» intend securing a club room for the winter. The Atlantic» have carpenters at work on their club house, which was badly strained during the recent gale. The Rosedales have patched up their broken float and gang plank. The Active Club's four are out every pleasant evening to keep themselves in form. The house of the Valencies is a,bad wreck and the boys are carrying away splinters, etc., as souvenirs of the big storm. The Atlantic's oarsmen will train all the winter to be fit uext summer. The Actives wisely stored their boats during the storm in the house of the New Jersey Yacht Club. The boats have been placed in the Actives' boat house. The Valencias will give a concert at Odd Fellows' Hall on October 23. The members of the Bohemian Boat Club are discouraged at the notice to move, and it is probable that the club will disband. The Trotting Circuit. The New Jersey Trotting Circuit which beiian at Morristown a.few davs azu will close at Mount Holly on October 12. The next meeting will be at Freehold an11 Fiemlngton, us both open ou Wednesday next. The former will be a three days' trot for purses aggregating $3,300, and the latter will be a two days' meeting for purses amounting to 42,000. The trot at Trenton from Septem ber 30 to October 4 will follow, and premiums amounting to $8,950 are •itered. Onu is a purse of $1,500 for a grand special race ou the closing day. The Burlington County Fair, at Mount Holly, opens on October 9 and ends on Saturday October 12. Purses reaching 87,000 have been put up. The Somerset County Fair, at tjomerville, runs at tiie same time as the Mount Holly meeting, but will continue two days only, and the premiums offered reach £'.2,100. The total amount of the purses offered by tile New Jersey Trotting Circuit is $32,700. Record of Pennant Races. NATIONAL LEAGUE. CLUBS. W. L. POT. I CLUBS. \7. L. PCT.

Mnvor CleveluiKl Seeking lltn Kiglit to Vote on Other Share*. Several old features developed by the litigation regarding the stock of the Dlxou Crucible Company were resur rected this morning in the Court of Chancery! In behalf of Mayor and Mrs. Orestes Cleveland, Counsellor John Linn placed before Chancellor McGill two motions to permit hiss clients to vote at the forthcom ing election for directors of the company upon 880 shares of str>ck. One motion de alt with 800 shares of stock standing iu the name of the re- ceiver and given in trust by Thomas Gop sill, who received them originally from Mayor Cleveland, the latter claiming to have rutaiuetWa redemption interest in the shares. The other motion dealt with 30!) shares transferred by Mayor Cleveland to Re ceiver Young and J30 shares transferred by Mrs. Cleveland to neutralize the Mayor's indebtedness to the company. As counsel for the receiver, ex-Governor Bedle opposed the motion dealing with Cleveland shares. He argued that the the transfer of the stock to Receiver Young was absolute, and that Mayor and Mrs. Cleveland possessed no interest whatso ever in the shares. As the stock was virtually the property of the company it should not be voted upon. He further claimed that as the only interest in the 580 shares was that of the stockholders and creditors of the company, the decision of the Chan cellor should leave the stock neutral. He made no objection to the motion regard ing the Gopsili shares. Ex-Mayor Collins appeared in behalf of those interested iu the Gopsili shares and briefly argued that there was no reason Hinoo olinm.n l· 1\£» vrvfofl midi), lit* said that In the trust between Mr. Gopsill ami the receiver Mr. Cleve land possessed 110 interest·. After Counsellor ΙΛηη made some further argument in behalf of his motions, Chancellor McGill said he would lake the papers, and adjourned a further hearing upon them until Monday next. A MUTAI, SON. The Father Whom lie Beat Is Too 111 to Appear Ajrainst Him. Among the prisoners arraigned In Po lice Justice Stilsing's Court this morning was Terry Ryan, a nineteen-year-old youth of No. 84 Canal street. He went home in a besotted condition yesterday and began abusing his father. Finally he seized a soldering iron aud struck the old man a blow on the head. The in juried man's cries for help summoned the neighbors, and the brutal fellow was rushed to the station house. This morning the old man was too sick, as the result of his injuries, to make his way into court, and his exemplary son is held to await the result of his injuries. MRS. BECKEIi RELENTS. She llon't Want to Prosecute the M:in Who Stabbed Her. Despite the confident assertions of the friends of Edward Becker, the bartender who stabbed his wife in the arm 011 Satur day last, that lie would be released yester day morning, he was held for trial. liecker was arraigned before Recorder McDonough yesterday moruing. He said j he was drunk when he committed the 1 deed. His wife asked leave to withdraw the complaint and secure the release of her husband.

JERSEY'S Β. L. UNIONS FIGURES FROM THE AXITUATj RE FORT OF THE LABOR BUREAU. Tlie Associations are Strongest in Bud' ■on, Kssex and Camden —Are Cars Without Conductors Liable for Negll. Ijence—General News of the State. The eleventh annual report of the Bu reau of Statistics of Labor and Industries of New Jersey has just been issued. The Chief of the Bureau devotes 163 pages of his report to building and loan associa tions^ He says:—Our tables show that for 208 of the 210 associations in existence in this State on August 1, 1888, the total assets, averaging $70,862 to an association, or about $280 to a shareholder, amounted to $14,739,278, of which $2,569,853 was the net profit earned on the installment in vestments. An annual incopie of $4,000, 000 is evidenced by the aggregate number of outstanding shares, 339,3«5}i, held by not less than 65,600 shareholders, or an average of 6.1 shares to a shareholder. In cluded among the shareholders were 123 associations or lodges. It Is estimated that seventy-five per cent, of the shareholders are men, twenty per cent, women and five per cent, minors, whose stock is held in the name of guar dians or trustees. The rough estimates respecting about one-third of the number leads to the conclusion that nearly two thirds (sixty-five per cent.) of the share holders must be wage-workers, the bal ance working for salary or being in busi ness for themselves. Too much reliance cannot be placed on this information, for secretaries keep no rec ord of such facts and, especially in cities, have no very extended acquaintance with the members of their respective associa tions. It appears that eighty per cent, of the borrowers are males and a little over fifty per cent, wage-workers. It appears that out of 35,711 shareholders 5,304 are paying for homes through the associa lions. The average loan appears to be *1,400, about. The figures are:— Number of associations July 81, 1888 210 Number tabulated 208 Terminating 3" ye rial 171 Serine outstanding 921 Series matured 250 Shares K)9,385,4 Shares borrowed on 07,2914 Par nont.

In 1860 New Jersey started out with only two building associations, and progressed as follows:— 1865 0 1883 121 1870 39 1884 133 1875 84 1886 150 1880 115 1888 310 Hudson, Essex, Camden and Middlesex counties have more associations, assets, shares and shareholders than all the other localities combined. The Trenton Savings Bank Run. The Trenton True American says of the run on the Trenton Savings Bank, re ported in these columns Saturday, that it was confined to the Hungarian and Italian contingent of the city:— "The ready payment of the first de mands appeared to have no effect on those who came after, for the run was kept up until the hour of closing, when the bank had paid out $15,000. There would have been no difficulty had the demands been many times as large, as the bank has se curities, readily convertible into cash, to the amount of $2,000,000. The whole amount entrusted to them by depositors is $1,800,000. "The other banks, hearing of the run, tendered assistance, but it was not needed. President Parker says that he did not know the orgin of the absurd rumors. One of them was to the effect that the bank had been robbed." Newark Law and Order League. It is nrettv well understood that the Newark Law and Order League are pre. paring for some very active work in their crusade against the saloons. W. G. Freer is no longer secretary, but the league has been represented at each meeting of the Excise Board by an elderly gentleman, •who takes copious notes of the proceed ings. Much surprise was caused yesterday by the rumor that ex-Judge Johnson, who is very prominent in Democratic circles, would take up Mr. Freer's work as coun sel and conduct the prosecution. There are, it is said, about nine complaints ready against saloon keepers for bunday trading and other violations of the law. They will be tried separately. Au Important Horse Car Point. A case has been begun in the Supreme Court against the Trenton Horse Rail road that will settle the question whether or not in the case of an accident on a street car, by which one of the passengers is injured, the failure of the company to have provided a conductor besides the man employed to drive the car amounts to negligence. It will come up in Janu- ary next. The case referred to is that of Jonathan Holden, for his minor son, Harry B. Holden, to recover damages for the injury of the latter, and the retaining as counsel of Chauncey H. Beasley and Geox-ge M. Kobeson assures its careful j and thorough prosecution. Prof. Cook's Suddeu Death. Prof. George H. Cook, State Geologist of New Jersey, died yesterday afternoon, j at his home in New Brunswick, from heart failure. He was taken sick yester- day in Rutger's College laboratory, but 1 up to noon to-day his death was unex- pected. I REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS.
