NEWS OF NORTH HUD-ON.

The Council of West Hoboken Had a
Warm Session.
1t was warm last evening, and the erst
while digniled Councilmen of West Ho-
boken looked anything but comfortable
as they took their seats in the Council
Chamber.
Councilman Klumpp seemed to feel a
little bit warmer than his colleagues, and
it was not long before he gave evidence of
it. Some of the Councilmen seem to
think that the towns interest demanded
the immediate appointment of a Captain
of Police, and tried to have their way last
evening, but Mr.. Kbumpp thought other
wise and managed eventually to have the
matter laid over.
1t is said that q certain Mr.. Livingston

A PAPER TRUST.

Capitalists Combined to Extort Huge
Profits from the British publishers.
BIZ Ca6te TO the United Press.
LONDON, June q, 18S9.-While the news
papers have been printing column after
column to demonstrate that a paper trust
in England wa impossible, and that the
reports that such a trust was forming
were absurd, the gentlemen interested in
the scheme ave been industrious and to-
day it is announced that all the arrange
ments are completed for a perfect
monopoly of the paper business Of the
Kingdom by a vast paper syndicate.
Like most of the trusts recently formed
in this country for the control of articles
of common consumption, this scheme for
d combination originated outside of the
circle OF the manufacturers themselves.
London financiers are at the bottom of
this trust, as of most of the others,
make a heap of none by
selling the shares of the paper
trust. In their prospectus, just issued,
they make a magnificent showing for the
new concern and the profits that are
promised are fabulous. They claim to
have completed arrangements with paper
on the continen n un ameri Which aP b7
a fixed payment annually, the foreign
manufacturers agree not to sell their
paper in the English market, and this
will give the trust a complete monopoly
at home with the power of exacting such
profits as they see fit, since every paper
maker in England has come into the
trust.
The newspapers of England are of
course chiefly interested in the working
of this scheme, as u of their pockets
must come very largely the big dividends
which the promoters of the syndicate now
so glibly promise. The papers affect to
look with little concern upon this attempt
to corner paper. While such a thing
might be possible, they say, In
the United States, where the
promoters of corners are assisted
by a prohibitory tariff, it is altogether i'm
probable that it could succeed here, where
access to the markets of the world would
still be easy, Notwithstanding the boasts
of the promoters of this scheme that all
have been bought off. Continental
paper makers, they say, have for q
long time beenn en6eavoring to obtain O
footing in the English markets, and moth
ing would suit them better Than such an
attempt or the part of English manufac-
turers to extort abnormal profits from
consumers. All alleged agreements to
the contrary Notwithstanding, paper
would be shipped to England by the
cargo the moment such an attempt were
seriously made. The papers warn invest
ors against touching the Paper Trust GER

Then the Councilmen had another row.
Councilman Klumpp wanted to have
1900 copies of the new charter which the
recent Legislature granted the town
printed and distributed among the citi-
zens before the coming special election.
The other Councilmen demurred, but
finally acquiesced and passed Klumpp's
motion.
Clerk Schneider was ordered to obtain a
certified copy OF the charter from the
Secretary of State and have the requisite
number of copies printed.
Then, by way of intermission, the Coun-
ell granted the Board of Widows and
Orphans Fund of the Fire Department
permission to use II of the rooms in
the new hall; passed the appropriation
ordinance, and ordered the crosswalks on
Malone street. The sum of $1,000 was ap-
propriated for a new fire alarm for the
town.

About sponges.
From the american Analyst.

From the american Analyst
Sponges are found only in a few To-
calities on the earth's surface, and the
supply does not nearly equal the de-
mand. A very few men have in their
power to corner the sponge market,
but they have never done it yet. and
San be depended on not to, for the
reason that they already have as
much of the world as they care to use.
There is no mercantile business
known in which sales are so certain
with so little effort on the part of the
dealer; where overstocking and dull
markets are so rarely known. or where
the profits acquired are so very
generous. In America there are only
six firms that are engaged exclusively
in the sponge trade. Five of
sixth is located at Chicago.
The best sponges are found in the
Grecian Archipelago, in water as shall
low in some cases as forty feet, and
ranging from that to depths be-
deeper the water the finer and more
Grecian goods are known as silk

800 a pound, a range which is ac-
counted for by the almost limitless
variety in texture, size and shape.
To Just what kingdom a. sponge be-
longs there seems to be no settled
opinion. The formation is the pro-
duct of myriads of small insects that
gather the floating particles found in
the ocean and build the fungus-like
growth, much as coral reefs are built,

mistake when it assumes that the
school children come near owning the
town this week. 1t is during the first
week of vacation-with Fourth of

children own, not alone the town, but
the whole country as well. But, then,
the metropolitan journalist can't be
expected to know anything about

EVIDENTLY the managers of the Re
publican party have concluded that
Wishy Washy Phelps can do their
prospects less harm in Germany than
in New Jersey. The party's gain,
however, is the country's loss, for we
believe that were he on the spot in
1892, he might again contribute largely
to the downfall Of Republicanism as
he did in 1884.

A Howl.

Here speaks the true Republican
like a hungry coyote. He speaks
through the editorial lips of the New
Brunswick FJedoniGW:-
By the might and right of victory the fedora
spoils in New Jersey belong to the victors.
And the victors want the spoils now-not next
~year-but right away.
Much indecency have we seen on the
part of ravenous Republican office
seekers; but never anything more
shameless than this.

will cost, will be easily found. In fact

holds a liberal subscription from a

Meanwhile we draw attention to the
article from the Newark Eoeadqsg

showing what the liberality of that
city has already done for it's less for

The Situation in Ohio.

The Republican party is in receipt
of multitudinous congratulations-
from its own meInbers-upon the do
ings of the party convention in Ohio
The New York Press, for instance, is
especially jubilant over the nomina-
ton of Foraker for the g~overnorship.
Well, there may be reason for this
confidence. Foraker may possibly
carry the State, but we would advise
our republican friends to do less crow
ing until the result is certain.
AS to the high tariff sentiments en-
bodied in the platform, they are
neither more nor less than was to be
expected. They are put there to de-
lude the wool growers of Ohio, and to
crafty the big boodlers who are the
backbone of the Republican party.
They will of course enthuse all
those who are easily fooled
or who have selfish interests on the
protection side. AS for the people at
large, they are, day by day, seeing
more clearly into this tariff question,
and the better they understand it the
worse the result will be for Sherman,
Mckinley & Co.
