What Is Proposed and What NAY Be
Done.

What Is Proposed and What may Be
Done.
The revival of the Washington street
tunnel project awakens fresh interest in
the condition of things at the foot of that
street. If there were ever so much dlspo-
sition on the part of the Board of Finance
to hasten the development of the Or O.
gramme, as there is not, the Board could
not possibly hurry it. Before work can
be begun on the bore, the Board of Finance
and the Board of Works must act twice
upon the matter. 1t is in Simated that
Mattheisson & Weichers will be prepared
to contribute $50, 600, and possibly more
of the cost of the Improvement, if it be
authorized and stand ready also to take
at four per cent. the whole block of bonds
that the city may issue to pay for it. The
general view is that the passage of the
tunnel bill by the Legislature of last Win
ter disposes of the project of bridge at
the foot of Washington street, that some
professional operators have been urging.
The variety of interests that would be en-
countered there make the bridge scheme
practically impossible. A tunnel would
afford means of communication between
the now divided sections of the city, and
serve all the purposes a bridge could serve.
Its cost will not exceed the cost of the
right of way for the bridge and of the con-
sruction of the bridge itself; and the tun-
mel would be inexpensive, while the city
would have to keep hands employed to
open and shut and operate bridge if one
were located there. Ii the tunnel is dug
it is proposed to run horse cars through
it, to connect with others that now trav-
erSe the city

RaiIroad Accident i'm Esboksn.

Patrick Somers, of No. 26S Eleventh
street, wiper in the employ of the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad
Company, met with a serious accident at
the round house in Hoboken at an early
hour yesterday morning. He went to
midnight mass, and when il was over, in
stead of going home, visited several sa-
looms and then went 'fooling around the
railroad tracks. A drill engine struck
him, knocking him down and splitting his
head open. He was taken to st. nary's
Hospital, where he lies in very weak
condition. He will have several days
vacation in the ward, the Sisters think. 4

THE JAILoRsHIP.
what Is Said Among the Aspirants
About 1t.

The Jailorship continues to be the excit-
ing topic in county political circles. 1t
seems to be conceded that Van Driver Kill
burn has achieved as many votes as he can
get; and that six votes show the full meas
ure of his strength. No one believes, in
fact, that the six votes that were with him
will ever be with him again; and there is
reason to believe that even the friends who
have been boosting him lave never had any
serious intention of letting him hook on.
The candidacy of ex-County Clerk II. X.
Van Horn is regarded by the Democrats as
much more menacing than that of Kill
burns. Sheersn, who aspires to the JAR
orship on the Democratic side, is indignant
because, after year and halfs work, he
has been able to secure only two votes.
Elk Director Govern has not shown the
strength his friends expected him to show,
and there seems to be little hope of his
securing the prize. The Democratic ring
have pushed Kelly forward, but they can
not hope to command the votes for him
that he needs. Freebooter Birdsall has
some steSdfast votes by him; and the gen.
eral impression is that he has reserve
strength that will put him eventually in
posse -sion of the Jail. He is undoubtedly
the second choice of many Freeholders
who are now voting for other candidates.
Those on the inside give it as their opinion
that the contest for the place is between
him and Van Horn.

Her Burial Last Tuesday.

Rumors were current the first of the
week that Maria Theresa, one of the Sis
ters attached to st. Bridgets Parochial
School, on Mercer street, who was buried
from st. Bridget's Church, last Tuesday
morning, had met her death as the result
of injuries received at the hands of one of
her scholars, in an alteration with three
unruly ones, who it was said were dismissed
from the school in consequence of the trou-
BILE. A SUNDAY MORNING News represent
tative investigated the matter thoroughly,
and learned that there was no foundation
whatever for the rumors. One of the Sic
tiers, who taught in the same classroom
with the deceased, assured the reporter
in the most positive manner that no boys
had been dismissed from the school and
there never had been any unusual disturb
ance in the school. She stated that Maria
Theresa had contracted pneumonia, from
which she died in three days.
The funeral services were held in the
church at o'clock last Tuesday morning
A Solemn High Requiem Mass was snug
for the repose of her soul. A most affect
ing scene in connection with the funeral
was the bearing of the remains from the
home to the church on the shoulders of six
of the Sisters, who acted as all-bearers.
The services were conducted by Fathers
Hanley, Murphy, O'Sha2hnessy and Foley,
Father Hanley preaching the sermon. The
remains were taken to Newark for inter-
ment. Sister Maria Theresa had been
connected with st, Bridget's school for
five years, and was much beloved by all who
knew her.

All Che Invitations to Call CHmbersa
with Conditions.


with Conditions.
The Fat Mems Club are just at present
having hard russell over the invitations
that have been sent them by their lady
friends to make New Year calls. They
have received twenty-five so far from
ladies living on the third floor of flats. At
a special meeting of the club it was de-
dided to reject al of them; but the &C ton
was afterward reconsidered and the ques-
ton is now a live one. A number of the
chief men are disposed to refuse the invi-
tations because there are no elevators in
the houses, and they think it will require
too much exertion to climb so many flights
of stairs. Several of the members have
sent letters of regret to the ladies who
have issued the invitations. and in two
instances repli17 have been received. One
lady offers TO have block and ball placed
on the roof of the house in which she
lives on condition that the club men will
stand below and pull each other up to the
windows of her fiat and swing inside, the
last man to be pulled up by the coach
man. The other lady offers to send to
New York and borrow water tower from
the Fire Department, with which the caller
may be hosted to the proper height and
dropped into the window
There is also some trouble about the
hiring of carriages. The livery stable men
demand that the club shall insure the car
rlages if more than three men are allowed
to ride in a carriage. They say they will
carry three, on. condition that they do not
weigh over one thousand pounds. The
club objects to this outrage, as they term
it, and even threaten to walk unless the
demand is Withdrawn.

George S. Lenhardt, the much horse

sheets, closed his career amongst us fit
tingly last Friday by getting arrested for
trying to get out of town without paying

the distinction of having put THE very APP

have no doubt that Lenhardt is quite as

to have him leave. He violated the conf

noticeable, and was the cause of some
comment by several influential railroad
men who were present.
Even those who did attend the meeting
were not treated fairly by the LEGAL daily
press. Mr.. Meyer Furst, for instance,
made good suggestion that it would be
advisable to have the plan of the Railroad
Company's engineers examined by other
engineers, with view to seeing if the
plans cannot be modified. The local pa
pers made no mention of this suggestion
at all. For our part, we believe the plans
to be the most feasible that can be de-
vised. An examination of them by other
engineers will probably serve to place this
fact in holder relief At any rate, there
can be no harm in having the plans in
quired into by competent judges.
