Hearing Before the Congressional Com
mittee Yesterday.
Special to the Jersey CITY Nelcs.
WASHINGTON, July %, 1890.--A hearing

termined on.
Judge Green, referring to charge
made by Mr.. Lindenthal, the engineer OF
the terminal bridge over the North
River heretofore authorized by
Congress, that the bill advocated by
for speculative purposes, said that
S270, 900 of the 100000 of stock required

not been introduced Until the fiftieth con-
gress, the company represented by him
had secured charter from the New York

testified TO the validity Of the company's
charter.

argument on Friday next. The COM

THEIR beer MAY COME In
Supreme Court Decision In
validating the Alder
manic Liquor Law.

The Supreme Court has just rendered
sort of "Original Package decision
which knocks out completely that portion
of the elaborate liquor license which was
passed by the Board of Aldermen last
year for the purpose of :crowding the out
of town bother oat of business in this
city.
The ordinance was passed June IL.
1880, and as it was found that it did not
work as satisfactorily as its promoters
wanted it to. an amendment was passed
December 81 SO as to read mo person ex-
cept aperson licensed by the Mayor andAl-
dermen of Jersey City shall by himself or
herself, or his or her clerk, servant or
agent, at any time sell or offer, or expose
for sale, or furnish or supply any spiritu-
Gus, vinous malt or brewed liquors under
the penalty of not exceeding SIS for each
offense."
John Sternweis, driver for one
Ohmeis, an agent in New York for Mil
waukee beer, came over to this city to
deliver twenty-five boxes of beer to the
Pullman Car Company for sale on their
buffet cars. The beer had been
purchased IN New York York by the b,
vigilant policemen saw Sternweis deliver
ing the beer, and ascertaining that he
had no licence promptly arrested him. He
took his prisoner before Justice Stilging
who promptly convicted Sternweis un-
der the ordinance and fined him S25.
Sternweis Immediately obtained writ
of certiorari and removed the proceed
1ngs into the Supreme Court for review.
The case was argued and Justice
M. Gle read the opinion. The Justice
held that such restrictions and regula-
tions, SO far as they applied TO the
sale of such liquors in another
State and then delivered to the
toned by some law of the Congress of the
United States invalid and void, and he
reversed the conviction with costs, which
the city will have to pay.
The justice in his opinion, says that
however desirable it may be deemed to
keep the liquor traffic within stringent
regulations, we must follow the construc-
tion of the constitutional clause which
empowers Congress to regulate
the commerce among the several
States, which was recently given by the
Supreme Court of the United States. The
charter and ordinances OF Jersey City, he
declares, SO far as they may be construed
to interstate commerce must be therefor
pronounced invalid.
Corporation Counsel Edwards has COM
municated the decision to the Board Of
Aldermen and it Is probable that some
action will be taken by the Board to
make the ordinance comply with the
decision of the court. Several brewers
and dealers IN New York have taken out
licenses under the section of the ordi-
nance which the court has declared in
valid, and nice question arises as to
whether they can recover the $3.50 which
each has paid. There were also several
convictions and fines of $25 each, under
the ordinance, and it might be interest
ing to know if those could be recovered.

THE ELECTION ALL RIGHT.
Constitutional Amendments Not Retsrd-

Speciql to the JERSEY CITY Netos.

Special to the JERSEY City Netos
TRENTON, July %, 1890 Numerous
inquiries have been addressed to Governor
Albeit asking for instructions in
regard to holding the constitu
tional amendment election on
September 80. The new ballot
reform law makes no provisision for
the election. One of the difficult
ties is that by virtue of the new
law the term Of the old election officers
expires August 23, and the new Board
does not organize yntil after the time
for holding the constitution election
The Governor referred the matter to the
that the election on the con-
stirutional amendment must be held
under the law as it existed before the
Ballot Reform law was passed. Among the
reason given for this conclusion is that
the act providing for the special election
provides its own machinery for holding
the election, which, although incon-
sistent with the provisions of the ballot
reform law, Is peremptory and in force
because approved at a later date
The law for the election provides that
the judges of election In the several
townships and wards who shall be in
office on the Both day of September
next shall be the judges of said cleo
tion, and the polls shall be open and
closed at the times now fixed by law in
this State. and the said election shall be
conducted by the same officers and in the
manner now required by law in conduct
ing the annual election in this State.
After the polls are closed the judges shall
canvass the returns, and shall send a
statement to the Secretary of State by q
messenger appointed by them.

to any considerable extent, and when
they met yesterday war of words fol-
lowed, which resulted in Mrs. Bridget
Harrington causing the arrest of Mrs
Horan.
This morning the two mothers-in-law
were before Justice Wanser, and Mrs.
Harrington told the Court that the awful
words that were twisted out of the mouth
of Mrs. Koran by that flexible tongue of
hers would make a sailors parrot blush.
Then said Mrs. Horan in her wrath:
