Chairman Allan McDermott looks for
most harmonious convention. He said
yesterday that no name but Leon Albeit
would appear before the Convention. Mr..
Young, he says, will withdraw because
he has no support
HE will not get vote from Hudson
county," said Mr.. McDermott. Hudson
is unanimous for ALBEIT and so is Essex
have heard from sixteen or seventeen
counties in the State and they all report
a unanimous feeling for Albeit"
When asked what majority he predicted
for Albeit in case of his nomination, Mr..
McDermott said he would get between
5000 and 10, 600, if not more. From every
county came the most encouraging Demo
cratic reports.
Mr.. McDermott says that the Democrats
will increase their majority in the House
of Assembly next winter, and will un-
doubtedly have q majority on joint ballot
Senate would go. 1t would stand II to
10 either one way or the other, but there
were one or two doubtful counties. Mr..
MeDermott thinks the party was never in
better fighting trim.

DIR. Bondy Again Refused Entrance.

DR.. Bondy is again in trouble. This
recently has been nothing new to him.
He made another attempt yesterday to
be recorded as physician by the County
Board of Health, but was unsuccessful
and this was, perhaps, owing as much to
the fact that he had no diploma to
register.
Several times the financial troubles of
DIR. Bondy have been published since he
located at Union Hill and also his vain
efforts to register as a physician. Ex-
Sheriff Heintze and Colonel Michael
Brown say they know him and that he is
an honest but unfortunate gentleman.

the Currie Estate.
The hearing on the application of the
Morris Cunning Dredging Company
for an injunction restraining the Currie
estate and the Point Breeze Ferry Com
pany from disposing of their title in the
filled in land off the Currie estate in
Greenville was to have been heard before
the Chancellor on the 18th inst.
Ex-Mayor Collins put in an appearance
for the Point Breeze Company, and for
his convenience the argument was heard
yesterday instead.
At its conclusion Chancellor McGill
held that the notice of the pending Of the
suit, which is on file in the County Clerk 8
office, is sufficient notice to purchasers of
the Morris & Cunning claim to one-half
the land, and that an injunction was
therefore unnecessary.

tue safety of their vessels will always be

noted also that after embarking the lady
passengers are the first to forget their
fears and are the most anxious for the de-
feat of the rival vessel.
