Court decided that the Aldermen of Jer-'
sey City were entitled to a salary Of S150
per annum under the act which was
passed by the Legislature last year. and

decision was made was that brought By
Alderman Joseph Keogh for $3.50 for sal
airy as Alderman for the months of May,
June, July and August Mr.. Vreden-
burgh appeared for the Alderman and
Senator Edwards defended the city
In his decision Judge Douglass says
that the point was made that the Board
of Aldermen was not general legisla-
tive body within, but ne has come to the
conclusion that the Board of Aldermen
is the only Board of the city governments
possessing such general authority.

LUMM'S AGCUSER.
He IS Arrested for Perjuring Him
self Against His Own Son.

Frederick Schneider, a nineteen year
old youth. was on trial in the Court of
General Sessions yesterday afternoon for
attempting to ravish his sister, who is
thirteen years old The case ended with
the father of the brother and sister being
placed IN the County Jail charged with
perjury.
1t was shown on the trial that during
last June Schneider and his daughter
went before Justice Foster and made an
affidavit that his son had been guilty of
attempting the outrage On the strength
OF the affidavit the young man was ar
rested and the Grand jury indicted him
and he was brought up for trial in the
Court of Sessions.
When Schneider, ST., was called to tes-
tify he. TO the surprise of every one, de-
MED the truth of the affidavit he had

man left his father at this time for better
situation and his father was

get HIM back that the father threatened

of not guilty. and then the Posecutor, in
dignant at the father for committing per-
jury. either before Justice Foster or in
the General Sessions, demanded his ar
rest. The Court ordered the man to be

A sensation has been caused In Green
vile society circles By the stories put in
circulation about Karl A Drewsen. we'll
known young man in that vicinity, who
resides with his parents at No 81 Dam
forth avenue. These rumors were ventf-
lated and exploded IN Justice Thomp-
sons court yesterday. 1t was al
legged that they were started
BY Martin Pellinaer. who lives at No. 1867
Bergen avenue. and who told number
OF people that young Drewson had been
intimate with his sister-in-law. Jennie
Pellinger, when she lived at his mothers
house as a domestic. He said that Drew
son had told him so some time ago, when
be found that Jennie had married Mar

urday night and said to his brother John,
who is Jennie's husband, in the presence
OF his mother and his sister Kate, that
Jennie was a disreDutable woman and
that Drewsor had told him that he had
had improper relations with her while
she was in his mothers house, and he had
a very bad opinion of her.
The husband at once went home and
told his wife and the next morning she
went with Kate Pellinger 10 see Drewsen
and asked him if il was true that he had
assailed her reputation In that way lie
said he had not ands had never had any
conversation about ber. She at once
called Martin 70 account and as he stid
persisted in his statements she applied to
Justice Thompson for a warrant for his
arrest for defamation of character
The Justice issued the warrant. and
when Martin was brought before hum he
was put under 600 bonds not to say any
thing further against his sister-in-law
Karl Drewsen testified that he had had

HAS DURKOOP SKIPPEDl
Fears in Hoboken That lie Has
Jumped His BaiI-Disas-

The Hoboken police are much exercised
over the probability that John Durkoop,
tue young man who was arrested on Mon
day night while attempting to break into
Hubbel's jewelry store on Newark street,
has jumped his bail. Durkoop
was locked up at headquarters
until Iuesday when Sergeant
MarneH released him upon note from

had given bail TO appear for examination

Donovan. Roundsman Stack aud the
other witnesses were on hand to testify
before the Recorder, but Durkoop did not
appear.
Every one waited from one O'Clock un-
I'll four O'Clock. aud then things began to
assume a suspicious aspect. William D.
Daily. who represented Durkoop, then
asked for an adjournment TO January g.
as ne said he would have to be out of the
city until that time.
Chief Donovan became suspicious and
started out 70 discover II possible Dnhr-
unsuccessful, but he learned enough
TO warrant him in believing
that Dnrkoop has placed himself outside
the Jurisdiction OF the Court The Chief
says that Durkoop cleared out almost i'm
mediately after be was released.

was little doubt that Duhrkoop had
skipped but that he understood his father
had promised to assist in bringing him
back. Ex-Freeholder Bruning was Duhr-
