There was great joy among the Hoboken
policemen this morning. At the recent
election the people overwhelmingly de-
cided to increase the pay of the police to
81 600 year. Immediately after election
a rumor was started by certain interested
persons that Assemblyman Marsh's bill,
which fixed the maximum pay of police
man in second class cities at 5000 year,
Knocked the increase Of pay into a cooked
hat.n The policemen Were considerably
worried and committee waited on Gov

give the matter his immediate attention.

"Fritz" Emmett disappointed an inn
mense crowd in Hoboken last night At
the time set forth for the performance
there were fully 1000 men, women and
children in surging mass in front of
Jacobs Theatre. A sign over the en-
trance stated that there would be no per-
formance, as Mr.. Emmett would not APP
pear.
The crowd was disgusted and the more
ignorant of them used some very forcible
and expressive language. Mr.. Harrison s.
patience was well nigh exhausted answer
ing questions.
No tickets We're sold last night, bnt an
unusually large number of tickets had
been sold in advance. Those who had
purchaser these tickets, upon presenting
them at the box office. had their money
refunded 1t was nearly nine O'Clock
when the last of the crowd had dispersed.
Mr. Harrison was seen this morning
He was busy figuring up what the theatre
had lost. He did not think Emmett
would appear tonight
A rather odd incident in connection
with Mr.. Emmett's Hoboken engagement
was that the sporting men in that city
were willing TO bet even money last week
that he would not appear.

The Indian troubles are causing much
alarm to the settlers at remote places
west of here. Citizens of Belfield,
twenty miles west, were surprised Sat-
urday to see settlers with their families
coming in from all directions. They
were all very scared, having heard that
the Indians were camped on Grand river,
fifty miles south. The situation was so
alarming that leading citizen arrived
here from Belfield Sunday to con-
suit with the authorities and learn
the truth of the situation. There
Is good authority for saying that bands
Of Indians are congregating on the Grand
river and are acting suspiciously. Tho
alarm among the women and children at
Belfield is such that they won't be COM
forted only when the men keep in bodies
to watch. A mass meeting was held
there Sunday afternoon, and delegation
will be sent to confer with the Governor.
This place is contiguous to an extensive
stock country consisting of several
ranchmen, several miles apart. Should
the Indians commence depredations they
could cause great havoc. A mass meet.

Monday night to take action looking to-
