MUNICIPAL MATTERS IN NEWARK.

There are two subjects which are source OF much

Common Council Father offered resolution ask.

has hospital OF It's own, and II was urged that the
giving OF aid to the hospital in course OF erection
would virtually be conerring benefit on the entire
community, as the institution Is catholic in The
widest sense OF the word The resolution met with
determined opposition, and was lost. Since then the
matter has betm agtated, dnd again at the meeting
OF the Council on Friday night 1t formed the
chief topic OF discussion, and was again de-
feated by vote OF one. IL certainly seems

the pavement question the ciizens at last fairly
aroused TO the belief that the cobble stones which
disgrace Broad street and murder horsenesh are
really disgracelul, and ought no longer to be tOler
ated. Now the question is what kind OF pavement
Shall be substituted? Some are IN favor OF the

lisScd-Further Adjournment.
Great interest Is felt In the decision OF Surrogate
Hutchings in this mysterious case. The details OF
the strange affair have already fully appeared so
far at least as relates to the death OF the aged
Captain Alexander. But how his fortune went is yet
undetermined. Mrs. Burke, his rather prepossessng
daughter, contends that he died worth SEQ 900;
that she MS heiress but that she deprived OF
her lawful property by some foul play yet undis-
covered. The Gardners, with whom the old
gentleman lived, 1t VIII be remembered,
were arrested on charge OF having caused
his death by poison The body was exhumed
but no traces OF poison having been discovered and
the accused were released from custody. 1t is
alleged that at the time of his death he was worth
considerable amount Of bonds, the exact amount OF
which, however, has not appeared Mrs. Burke, as
his administrative, claims before the Surrogate that
she Is legally entitled to the property, and the teti.
mony now being taken is chiefly directed to show
the amount. From all the present aspects of the
case the investigation will doubtless be a length
ened as several parties are strenuousy coniesring
the rights which Mrs. Burke confidently presents.
The adjourned hearing was TO have been continued
yesterday, but owing to the absence OF counsel IL
was further postponed until Saturday next.
The Gardners have instituted proceedings, claim
ing damages for defamation OF character against
Mrs. Burke In consequence Of their being arrested
at her Instance.
