Tired oil Her Husband.

There were several interesting cases in
the Recorders Court in Hoboken this
morning Bridget Bang, comely woman
OF twenty-six years of age, was the first
prisoner before the bar. Bridget was ac-
cused by her husband, Thomas, of adul-
terry. committed with John Schmidt. of
No. 50 Adams street. Thomas told the
following story to the Court
Il married my wife about six years ago.
We had a grand wedding and started
housekeeping at No. 208 Newark street,
where we lived happily until four days ago
when we had some words and / gently
slapped my wife in the face. She seemed
to think nothing of it at the time and l

Isaac Joseph, a Jewish peddler, at Nc. 2(2

mutual consent. On May 8 Ellen was
pressed for cash and carried off clock,
the peddler's watch and other little
tritles and pawned them. The girl, when
accused of the crime, did not deny it, ana

Henry Cullen, prosperous looking
young business man, was the next pris-
oner. Cullen is a commuter on the D., l..

Last night he missed the regular train.
This Was primarily the cause OF his ap-
pearance in court this morning While
waiting for the next train he sampled
the wet goods at the Dukes House,
mad was soon in gay and festive
mood. In some way he made himself
obnoxious to Special Officer Hanson at
the depot, and the policeman started to
bring him to the station. Before getting
there the policeman had a beautiful
black eye and his helmet was smashed.
This morning Cullen promised to try and
not miss his train again, and after pay
ing a fine Of $5 and paying for new he'll
met for the policeman he was discharged.

GARDENERS TURPITUDE.
His Report Will Make a Stuhr and
Also a Big Kick.
Special to the Jerssn city Mems.

TRENTON, May %, 1890 As I tele-
graphed yesterday afternoon, the Repub-
lican majority of the Senate Investigat-
ing Committee agreed to recommend in
its report that Senator Mcdonald be un-
seated and his seat given to Mr.. Stuhr.
The committee met in one of the COM
mittee rooms at two O'Clock. Twenty
minutes later Senator Adrain, the Demo-
cratic minority, hurried out of the room,
and, seeking Senator Mcdonald down
town, informed him of the action of the
Republicans. Senator Gardner refused
to say anything about the coming report,
and DR.. Roe said that if such a course
was taken it could not be said that the
r pablicans were actuated by PARTISAN
il as both Senator Mcdonald and Mr..
Stuhc were Democrats. When asked if
it WAS not understood that Stuhr would
vote with the Republicans to retain

son in Office the good Doctor discovered

Rue of Mercer and Thompson of Somer-
set were also opposed to such revoIu-
tionary and unprecedented action.
A GREAT BIG UNLESS"
A Republican Senator, who was
prominent candidate for President of the
Senate. in speaking OF the matter said
that Mr.. Mcdonald should not be ousted
from his seat unless 1t was positively
proven that he had not been elected. He
did not think that the Republican party
would gain anything by seating Stuhr
received majority of the honest votes
cast.
When asked if he thought that enough
evidence had been produced to show that
Stuhr had been elected, the Senator re-
pned that he was not sufficiently ac-
quainted with the testimony to say, and
he would be guided in his action by the
committees report. 1t would therefore
seem that the crowning iniquity of Boss
Gardner might not be consumated after
all.
HARD AT WORK.
Senators Gardner and Roe labored all
the afternoon and evening on their report
and say that it will be ready for presenta-
ton tomorrow afternoon. Senator Adrain
left the city after the meeting OF the COM
mittee and will submit minority report
at the same time. The committee has
prepared its bill OF expenses, but
1t did not appear in the in
cidental bill which was laid before
the House. The committees bill amounts
to over $4,000 and large slice OF it goes

TRENTON. May %, 1890. 1T was more
difficult than ever yesterday morning to
get a quorum in the House, and it was
not until the Sergeant-at-Arms had
secured the city and gathered in several
late risers that the House was able to
proceed with business. The large amount
of mischief which one single little letter
in the wrong place can do was illustrated
in the case of Mr.. Mullone's bill increas-
ing the pay of the fire department.
Mr.. Mullone succeeded in getting it
safely through the house and he thought
his trouble had ceased. But it was dis
covered that q typographical error, which
put in an s'fp where an s.r" ought to be,
had impaired the influence OF the bill.
The error barred out The truck drivers
by reading tenders of trucks" instead of
TENDERS or trucks" Chief Farrier was
down here post haste to endeavor to have
the matter Strengthened out If possible.
On motion of Mr.. Kelly the bill was
called back to have the error rectifed.
Mr.. Kelly secured the passage of his
bill making ten hours labor within
twelve consecutive hours constitute a
days work on surface and elevated rail-
roads, and the measure making legal
acknowledgements taken by commission
ers of deeds whose terms have expired,
also went through.
