A BATCH OF WIFE BEATERS.

The Court of Sessions Had Several Mar
riage Failures to Consider.
Bridget Corrigan, of Fourth street, was
complainant against her husband, James
Corrigan, this morning in the Court of
Sessions. On September 5 her husband
came home and asked her to go out with
him. She asked if he had any money and
he said that he had SO. She said she
needed the money in the house, but he
refused to give it to her for that purpose
and beat her. Mrs Corrigan told the
Court that she did not live with her hus-
band and supported herself and ta o
children.
Corrigan admitted this and also that he
had served term of ninety days for beat
ing her, and several terms for other ex-
penses. He was sent to Snake Hill for
three months.
During quarrel with his wife Robert
Jones (colored) cut her on the nose with a
knife. He claimed in court this morning
that the stabbing was accidental, but the
Court did not believe him and sent him
to the penitentiary for three months.
Christian Kramer was convicted of
wife beating. His wife was forced to
leave him and she is now working IN New
York. She said in court that she never
had happy day since she was married
until she left him.

THERE ARE OATS IN THE CASE.
And the Restive Captain G. p. Smith
Gets Excited.

And the Restive Captain @. p. Smith
Gets Excited.
The examination of Dennis Griffin and
William Noonan, the driver and helper
for Cassidy & Corscallens, who we're ar
rested for stealing oats from truck in
their charge, was continued before Jus
tice Stilsing this morning.
Frank Baldwin, an iceman, of No. 31a
Pavonia avenue, was arraigned in con-
nection with these men upon a charge OF
receiving the oats.
Captain Prettyman Smith, whose bril-
liant mind is wrestling with this case, pro
duced number of witnesses to swear
that they carried five bags of oats from
Rush's blacksmith shop, on Provost street,
where it is said that Griffin and
Zoonan left the stolen OATS to Baldwin IS
stable. The men, however, did not swear
as Prettyman wanted them to, and he
was wroth. One of the defendants, who
was sitting near the pretty captain, at
tempted to say something, when Smith
angrily told him if he did not shut up ne
would put him out In fact so demon
strative was Smith that the Justice called
him to order.
Mrs. Sarah Jacquins, of No. 129 Provost
street, said that she saw one of the ac-
cused men carry the oats into Rush's
shop Griffin and Noonan were committed
for trial and Baldwin's case was adjourned
until TOMORROW.

INSURANCE RUN OUT.
But the Freeholders Go on on a Junket-
ing Trip All the Same.

But the Freeholders Go on on Junket-
ing Trip All the Same.
The insurance companies that have
taken risks on the county buildings noti-
fed the Freeholders that the premiums
must be paid today or the policies viii be
cancelled.
The Finance Committee held special
meeting few days ago to arrange this
matter, but had no money available to
meet the demand. 1t was then agreed
that the committee should see the
companies and obtain an extension of
time unMl the next meeting. This will
probably be granted.
Fifteen of the twenty Freeholders went
to Waverly yesterday, and in conse-
quence there was no meeting of the
Board Five Freeholders who believed
the interests of the county could be best
served by meeting, hung around
the Court House all the afternoon
in the vain hope that quorom would
straggle in. Six Of the pleasure seeking
Freeholders went to the fair in a stage
provided by ex-Coroner Crane, and the
others in other vehicles. All had good
time and it was late when they re-
turned.

RAILROAD NOTES.

Ticket Collector Kenyon, of the Pavonia
Ferries, went home last night and placed
in the hands of his wife package OF
what he supposed was the best grade OF
tea, which he had purchased in New
York. When his amiable partner was
about to dump a portion of its contents
into vessel preparatory to Brewing the
tea for supper, she discovered that the
package contained nothing but sawdust.
The usually admirable disposition of the
genial ticket collector was slightly ruffieci
this morning, and it is possible, should he
catch ,'that sawdust feller." some one OF
the Erie employees will suddenly find
himself converted into floor mop
Proprietor Rogers, of the Erie depot
cafe, was bereaved yesterday by the sud
den death of his wife at the Coleman
House, New York, Of which he is also

THIRD DISTRICT U. L. PARTY.
New Members Elected-The Ironclad
Ballot Reform Pledge.

New Members Elected-The Ironclad
Ballot Reform Pledge.
A large and enthusiastic meeting of the
U. L. Club of the Third District was held
last night in Germania Hall, and about
ninety new members were initiated and
many others were proposed as members
and referred to the proper committee for
investigation.
They were to make nominations for
candidates for Assembly, ETC., but so
much time was occupied in admitting the
members (most of whom reside in the
portion of the district lately added to the
Third from the Second), and the speeches
made by the local and visiting members
that the nominations were allowed to lie
on the table until next Thursday night,
when the new members can vote
On motion of Mr.. Turner resolution
was unanimously passed denouncing the
members of the last Assembly and Sem
ate who defeated the bill for ballot re-
form: and with uplifted hands every
member pledged himself to vote for no
man who is not pledged to vote for the

NOT TO AMALGAMATE.
The Central Assembly Withdraws Its
Request to the Builders.

The Central Assembly Withdraws Its
Request to the Builders.
Last nights meeting of the Central
Trades and Labor Assembly was slimly
attended. James A. Stuart, of the
Painters, presided.
The committee appointed to confer with
the Building Trades Council as to the
desirability of that body's amalgamating
with the Central Trades Assembly re-
ported that the Council had referred the
matter to the local unions and would take
action at its next meeting.
Some discussion ensued as to the prob
able outcome of the proposed amalgama-
tion, which, as the delegates understood,
involved the dissolution of the Building
Trades Council 1t was the general opin-
ion of those present that such result
was undesirable, even if the Building
Trades Council were in favor of taking
such action.
The Assembly finally instructed it's
committee to withdraw the plea for ANAL
gamation and request the Council to send
delegates to labor's central body in Hnd-
son county.

GRIFFITH'S STREET PAVE.
1t Doesn't Suit the Property Owners, and
They Kick Hard.

1t Doesn't Suit the Property Owners, and
They Kick Hard.
About twenty-five members of the
Fourth District Property Owners AS
sociation met in the Kessler Building on
Central avenue last evening, and pro-
tested against the manner in which the
contract for repaving and curbing
Griffith street, from Central to Milborn
avenues, is being carried out. The ma
Jorlty OF those present were Griffith street
residents. President M. p. Merceles pre-
sided, and Mr.. Robert Muir was secretary
pro tenn.
The gathering included Christian
Weber, Louis Oberlein, Martin Hackett,
Martin Logan, H. Schedler, John Z. Nc
Arthur, HI. M. Rogers, E. M Van Tassel,
William Wheeler, Herman Brun, Herman
Stoyer, James Mclaughlin, James HaInil-
ton, John Mayer and William Spleidt,
Some women were also present.
The Griffith street property owners
claimed that the improvements in ques-
ton were not being carried out according
were of an inferior grade. Initiative
steps were taken toward applying a
remedy. The contractor and the Street
and Water commissioners were freely
criticized. The contractor was de-
Tended on the ground that he
was DuI mYIn IN In0 maJtSI,
and it was decided that If an attempt was
made to wage legal warfare against
MIN the association would find itself con-
fronted by Mr. Zabriskie and other
money lenders, who would back the con-
tractor in the fight with more money
than could be raised by all
the Griffith street residents COM
bined. The Street and Water
Board were responsible for the inferior
work. An effort at least should be made
to force the Board to give to the Griffith
street property owners full value received
for the moneys collected for improve
ments.
Martin Logan precipitated lively dis
cusslon by remarking that the association
as body had no special grievance against
the Board in the matter of the improve
mentS under present consideration.
While 1t was all well enough for the
Griffith street property owners to bring
the matter before the association and ask
its cooperation, the association itself
could not bring suit against the Board.
Frank Weber, Jonn Il. Macarthur. II.
Schedler, Christian Weber and Robert
Muir disagreed with him and were anx-
ious to see the association take the mat
ter in hand and make its influence felt.
committee consisting of Robert Muir,
Martin Hackett and Fl. Schedler were ap-
pointed to raise funds for the purpose of
compelling the contractor to fulfill the
contract for improving Griffith street ac-
cording to the specifications. The COM
mittee was authorized to secure the opin-
ion OF counsel, and to Immediately push
the matter.
The meeting then adjourned, subject
to the call of the chairman. The com
mittee began it's work as soon as the
meeting adjourned by opening a sub
scription list to raise funds for legal
opinions: The majority of those present
chipped in 50 apiece.

The trial of Cornelius Hoagland for
assault and battery and larceny took
place this morning in the Court of Special
Sessions. September 4 Hoagland and

suit. Hoagland jumped overheard and
escaped, but several days later he was
arrested.

FRANCES ELECTION.
The Governments Stupid Policy Toward
the Boulangerists.
By Cable to the United Press.


By Gable to the United Press.
LONDON. Sept. 20, 1ss9.--France is
in the midst of the most excit-
ing electoral struggle that has
engaged her people for many years. In
every city and town OF the republic
political meetings of one set of partisans
or another are held nightly, and when
next Sunday arrives and the French
elector will have to registrate his choice
for the republic as it is or otherwise, he
need not falter in his choice from lack of
sufficient counsel
The Boulangists are making prodigious
efforts to galvanize their idol into SEM
blance of life, and though they are sorely
handicapped by the enforced absence
from prudential considerations, of their
hero, they yet succeed in keeping up a
heap of noise. In these efforts they have
the active, though blind and uninten-
tional aid Of the frightened government,
who really give the Boulangist cause all
the respectability it possesses by labor
iously and idiotically sending large bodies
of troops to all their meetings.
At last nights meeting at the Cirque
Fernando in Paris, the well-Lnown
Boulangist's League, Laisant and De-
lourede spoke to over four thousand of
their sympathies but at the same time
they were compelled to address their
arguments to nearly a thousand police
and soldiers who had been sent by the
Ministers ostensibly to preserve order, but
really to overawe the meeting.
Notwithstanding their presence the
government was roundly abused and
shouts of "yiye Boulanger" rose from all
parts of the great hall. After the meet
ing over hundred of those who took part
were arrested and thrown into prison
with no charge whatever against them.
The best informed opinion in Paris is
tha M will ha OF oip ad
next Sunday by the people, though they
will lose a considerable number of
Deputies. President Carnot has pre-
pared q manifesto, which will be issued
tomorrow, on the eve of the election, in
which he will appeal to the people of
France to save themselves from the
dangers which threaten tne republic:
France have entered into an unholy COM
pact to destroy the republic for no better
purpose than that they may have the
chance to fight afterwards over their
