FOREIGN STOCK TAXABLE.
The Attorney General Makes a Deliver
ance of Interest to Capitalists.

The Attorney General Makes Deliver
ance of Interest to Capitalists.
The announcement of a decision by At
torney General Stockton that the stocks
and bonds of foreign corporations, the
vided for by the laws of the State, are
taxable in this State under the general
provision, "All personal property and per-
sonal estate, has aroused deal of inter
est among the rich men of the city. The
enquiry of the Attorney General was made
at the request of Corporation Counsel
Coult, of Newark, who had previously de-
clared such stock taxable, but who, to
make assurance doubly sure, referred the
matter to Mr.. Stockton.
OF course bonds and stocks upon which
a tax has been paid elsewhere by the
owner in this State are exempt under an
opinion of the Supreme Court of the
United States. The opinion of the At
torney General is of great Importance.
Under it, vast amount of personal
property, which has heretofore escaped
taxation, must come in for a share of pub
lie burden. 1t had been the general opin-
ion, or rather the practice, to believe
that these securities We're not taxable
prior to three or four years ago The
belief had been sustained by the Courts.
Recently another similar case involving
this question came to the Supreme Coert,
wherein it was argued that mortgage
on property outside of the State should be
exempt from taxation where held in this
State, because local tax had been paid
on the property. The Court refused to
entertain any such view, and decided that
the mortgage was taxable in this State.
The United States Supreme Court has re-
peatedly decided that shares of stock may
be taxed, though the property it repre-
sents has been taxed locally, and though
taxation. The capital stock and the shares
of stock are not recognized as the same
thing.
If this class of property can be got at by
the tax assessors in anything like reas-
enable amount, the valuations of personal
property in the city, county and State
would be largely increased The difficulty,
however, is to reach it,

Wedding Tragedy.

JoHNsTowN, Pa. June 5, 1889. Best esti
mates this morning on loss of life based
on the registry of the living, and the un-
official poll put it at from 1900 to $1,000.
During the work of removing the rub
bish from the Methodist Episcopal
Church, yesterday, a man and his wife
were found clasped SO tightly in each
others arms that it was found necessary
to bury them together. just as the flood
struck the city wedding was going on
and the principals were drowned just as
the ceremony was completed. The
minister escaped, together with nearly
all the witnesses,
The resident portion of Woodvalebor-
ough is completely-wipe out. The prop
erty loss is estimated at So, $1,000,
In the hills above the wrecked
village is presented the worst
spectacle of the hour. Here are clustered
the several thousand inhabitants who
escaped, and unless aid is given
them soon they must perish of want.
Starvation stares them in the face They
are so far above Johnstown that the relief
parties have not yet reached them and
only "a few provisions have been
brought up to them by the other
survivors in Johnstown. Several have
lost their mind, and it is feared that the
horrors of death by starvation, or the
worst horrors of madness must soon come
upon them. 49,. Z.

the vote was unanimous to stand by the
Subsidiary Court. The High Court of the
World has been of no benefit to u.s. we
have been to it, The probability is that
a new American Order of Foresters will
be established after the Minneapolis Con-
vention meets. We number $1,000 in this
country. The Independent Order of
Foresters in Chicago 1900 strong, will
likely join with u.s. Those in this country
who have been paying money into the IN
surance fund are guaranteed no protec-
ton by the High Court of the. World.
Court Jersey City's vote is unanimous to
stand by the Subsidiary High Court"
THE HIGH COURT MAY GIVE IN
Said William Maxon, of Court Iafay-
ette:-"The question before the Fores-
ters of America today is, shall we re-
main loyal to the High Court of England
by eliminating the word white from our
general laws, or shall we branch off in
the American Order of Foresters The
High Court of England has seen fit to de-
mand that we strike out the word white
regarding the admission of candidates.
We have refused to obey the order. The
consequence is that in all probability the
American branch of Forestry will secede
from the Order feel very confident for
the welfare of the American Order of
Foresters and we feel no alarm for our
future. The High Court of England will
rue her action and there is no doubt in
my mind that she has already regretted
her course.
''The American Order will gain, the Eng
lish order suffer by secession. The dele
gates to the Convention to be held in Min
neapolis in August win come to a final
decision. Meanwhile we await develop
ments. / find the sentiment almost
unanimous in favor of secession; but my
individual belief is that when the High
Court of the World finds the American
courts are determined to secede, it will
make concessions, and the matter will be
amicably settled.n
Treasurer James Allardice, of Court
Bergen, attended the Chicago Convention
rs delegate year before last. He said to
the reporter last evening"
IF the headquarters of the High Court
of the World were situated in Dublin, you
would hear nothing of dissension in
America over the admission to our courts

WORSE THAN THE GHOUI.S.
Shameless Women Seek to Corrupt Girl
Who Survived the flood.

PITTsBURG, Pa, June 5, 1ss9.-At the
Second Presbyterian Church relief rooms
last night the ladies attending to the
wants OF the sufferers were startled by
the presence among them of certain
women about the town who eagerly ten
dered their assistance in relieving the
wants of the half-famished and taItered
strangers.
Their assistance was promptly declined,
and suspicion of their motives being
aroused an investigation was instituted,
resulting in the astounding discovery that
at several stations between Johnstown and
this city PROGRESSES had stepped aboard
and at once sought the acquaintance of
many of the younger lady passengers,
whose attractiveness in face and form
for the time being was misfortune.
The explanation of their solicitous in
terest in the unfortunates is that they
would be at once be provided with COM
Portable homes in their families. Here
after the Pennsylvania Railroad officials
will carry Johnstown sufferers on special
trains only, which are to make no stops,
thus frustrating the evil designs of these
human vultures.

den Grimes responded, so the witness
swore:-
you ought to go to -" He admit
ted that he was late that morning.
Thomas Roland, prisoner, swore that
he escaped from Snake Hill by the aid OF
tools he obtained from the carpenter shop
by permission, and that he built minia--
ture ship while in the Penitentiary and
was about completing another when his
time was up. This was in 1884, and all OF
the keepers saw him have the tools.
THE RESULT.
This closed the evidence and Warden
Grimes said that he thought it unneces-
sary to make any statement, for nothing
worth contradicting had transpired in
connection with the charges.
Freeholder Pairson then offered a
resolution that the Warden be exoner-
ated, and that he has the confidence of the
committee. The resolution was adopted.
The only opposition to the vote being
that of Mr.. McDonough, who said there
was a great difference in the testimony
yesterday from that on the Tuesday be

REV. MIR. GRANT INSTALLED.
The South Bergen Church HEARTH,
Greets Its New Pastor.


Greets Its New Pastor.
The Rev. William d. Grant was in
stalled pastor of the South Bergen Re
formed Church last evening amid the
most auspicious circumstances. The
auditorium was packed with an audience
of churchgoers.
The pulpit was profusely and beauti-
fully ornamented with flowers, behind
which sat q row of prominent local clergy
men; and choir of dozen or more
trained voices sang hymns and anthems
with good effect.
The Rev. E. A. Merry, president of the
Chassis of South Bergen, presided over the
installation ceremonies.
Prof Archie Mitchell gave an organ
voluntary, and the choir sang Come,
Thou Almighty King" as an invocation
Rev. G. r. Garrettson read a passage of
Scripture, and Rev. E. A. Meury prayed
"Onward, Christian Soldiers'' was next
sung Then the Rev. William p. Bruce,
of Greenville, delivered an eloquent and
impressive sermon, in which he referred
often to the character of the Apostle Paul
In closing, he compared Jersey City to
Corinth--a social, commercial and politi-
cal centre-and advised pastor and con-
gregation that 'if, after the weary hours
Of labor together are over, they could each
say, we know naught but Jesus Christ,

been well done"
The new pastor was then installed by
the Rev. +. A. Meury, in accordance with
the method in vogue among Reformed
Churches, which consisted i'll simply
reading and answering the constitutional
questions; and yet it was decidedly an i'm
pressive ceremony. The installation
prayer was made by the Rev. Mr.. Bonn,
and was followed by u solo by Miss Teresa
Lang, in which she was Joined by the
choir.
d., of the Lafayette Reformed Church,
delivered the charge to the pastor. His
appearance in the pulpit was character
lied by the proverbial solemnity of
deacon, but his charge was spiced with
witty. vet appropriate remarks. He adj
yised the Rev, Mr.. Grant to adopt DR..
Tyler's method of studying the Bible in
the morning and the door-plates in the
afternoon.
Jersey City ministers, said he, find it
necessary to wear out a great deal of
shoe leai her He closed his charge with
O reference to the faithfulness of Rev.
Mr., Vaughan, the former pastor.
The Rev. Cornelius Brett made the
charge to the people. He referred also to
the fact that the South Bergen Reformed
Church had been supplied with many
new ministers.
"That is not your fault" he said.
tsYour church has been such good
school for ministers that the country has
spent year or SO In your midst is fitted
for almost any church in the country"
The new pastor pronounced the bene-
diction. The congregation will give him
a house reception on Thursday evening of
next week.

THERE is NO MUSIC
And Very Little Harmony In Linden
Avenue Church. III

And Very Little Harmony in Linden
Avenue Church. r
There is trouble in the new Methodist
Church on Linden avenue, between the
trustees and Pastor Kiefer The trustees
want to run" the music and organist
and the pastor objects. He claims that
he is the only one who should do this.
When the new church's congregation
deserted the old church, block distant,
the trustees, it is said, desired to get an
other organist in place of Miss Annie
Armstrong, a daughter of Major Arm
strong. When the new church was being
erected Miss Armstrong was given to
understand that she would be retained as
organist, and she went to the organist of
st. Pauls Church, New York, and began
series of lessons to complete her musi-
cal education. Immediately after the
Few church was dedicated five of the
nine trustees found fault with her, and
decided to make change and engage a
male organist
Board of Works Commissioner Simpson
is trustee in the church and he, it is
said, was particularly active in his en-
deavors to make the change. The
trustees who objected to Miss Armstrong
made it so uncomfortable for her that she
was forced to resign. This caused further
trouble and the choir disbanded.
There was no music on Sunday. The
pastor preabhed a sermon that directly
referred to this matter ; and Mr.. Simpson
was offended.
He waited in the lobby until service was
over, and then accused Pastor Kiefer of
having in a cowardly way insulted him
from the pulpit, place that forbade any
reply. This Mr.. Kiefer denied.
When he was seen at his home today
the Rev Mr. Kiefer said that Mr.. Simp-
son had acted hastily, and that the trouble
arose because the pastor wanted to take
charge of the music, right which the
Conference gives him and the Bishop sus-
tains. He has been told by them, he said,
that they sustained his course. In five
years there have been five different minis
ters at this church, the changes being
brought about by similar troubles.

of the Palmas, bid $15. Mr. Young said
he would see the Doctor, but would not
raise him.
Mr.. William Muirheid, president of the
Palma Club, said he would take the box
for 500. A bid was then made, in behalf
OF the New Jersey Athletic Club, of $50.
DIR. Gordon, for Palma, bid Sl75, and the
New Jersey man secured the box for
$500.
Mr.. Muirheid took the opposite box for
SlI5, and DR.. Gordon and Mr. Young paid
$50 apiece TO look at each other from the
two upper boxes.
The seats in the orchestra were then
eagerly snatched up until they were all
disposed of.
The competition ran high between the
Palma and Jersey City Athletic Club.
The Pamas proposed to take the whole
orchestra, which proposition produced a
lively kick on the part of the Jersey City
Athletic men. Then it was modified to a
single row. This was more acceptable
and some lively bidding insued for the
better rows.
The sale aggregated about 81 200, of
which amount the Palmas took $700
worth and the Jersey Athletic Club the
balance

A CLUE TO CRONIN's SLAYERs.
simons and Williams Thought to BE in
Chicago,

CHICAGO, June 5, 1889. = The police
claim to have an important clue to the
murderers of DIR. Cronin. They have
found the expressman who hauled the
murderers' goods from the building at
No III Clark street to the Carlson cot
tage.
According to the eXpressman the fel-
lows belong in Chicago and he has seen
both of them frequently since he hauled
their goods.
The last time he saw them was last
of one of the men tallies closely with
that of Simons, who bought the
furniture from Revell & Co., and of
Williams. who rented the cottage from
the Carlsons. The police believe the two
men are still in town and they are relying
ON the expressman to find them.
