Denying Published Statements which
Shed Too Much Light on Bis Character.
From the Neio York Tribune of Ttursda "
To The Editor Of the Tribune:-
SIR,--in yesterdays issue is new at
tack upon me that protest there is no
motive or excuse for. The motive is that
of your informant, with whom am deal
ing in a different way. The article is so
utterly false in all its scope aud character
that il is amazing. now that you could
have no political object TO gain, that you
could have been induced to publish it
with the head lines you gave it. The
question at issue is purely q technical
law question; the stock you speak Of does
not come back in TACT to my wife. There
is no ''unparalled impudence,' no frank
ly avowing," nothing that interests the
public, nothing that involves any ques-
zion OF good faith, nothing that should
have called out any public notice what
ever, and nothing upon which TO base the
half column of malice in the outrageous
article you have been induced to publish.
I was not reluctant witness" nor
was my wife, and the inference or impress
sion tried to be conveyed to the public
that in any petition presented to the Chan
cellor or otherwise my wife's name was
used improperly or without her consent,
by counsel or by me, is monstrous.
| refrain from making any answer at
this time to the inference or impression
sought to be conveyed to the public on
behalf OF the receiver, but it is equally
false and outrageous, and points out
plainly the source that inspired the
article. l have made no public protest
against your personal attacks during a
political campaign, but this last is made
ut time when that motive is not present,
and am sure that you will not refuse me
an opportunity to deny the statements
your paper has been misied into making.

A BIG MINERAL FIND.
GeoIogist Mason Loeates zircon and Mo.
lybdenite In This State.
Special to the sunday Morning Ne,es

1ybdenite In This State.
Special to the sunday Morning Nescs
TRENTON, July IL, ls90.-Mr Frank L.
Mason. Assistant Geologist of New Jer-
sey, has discovered several places in this
State where he believes zircon and mo-
lybdenite can be lined profitably. Zir-
con is found in brilliant black and brown
crystals of about half an inch in length
and with four sides While in one form
the ends are comparatively simple, in
another the corners and end of the crystal
have been bevelled off until it has
twenty eight sides or faces.
This mineral at present retails at from
fifty cents to dollar per pound, and it is
proposed to use it in electric lighting
The only place where at present this
mineral Is extensively miued is in Hun
terdon county, N. g., but Mr.. Mason
county, may be opened where the rock
sometimes reached fifty per cent. Of
zircon- There is also another mine at
Double Run Meadows, in Passaic county.
Moiybdenite is used chiefly by chem
lists in determining the presence of phos-
phorus, and frequently costs three dol
lars pound. 1t occurs in crystals like
of distinguishing il is by melting it in
cooking soda and placing drop on sill
yer.
The suIphur.inthe molybdenite will stain
the coin black. Mr. Mason says it may be
found anywhere in the iron ore belt of
New Jersey; but two probably paying
places which ne has discovered are at
Vernon, in Sussex county, and Lower
Harmony, in Warren county. In the lat
ter place it is estimated that ten to forty
pounds of molybdenite can be obtained
from ton of rock.

A portion of the flooring in the pool
rooms of Collins & Co. at Harrison n. j.,
gave way. yesterday afternoon, pre-
cipitating half dozen persons to the
floor beneath and creating great ex-
citement. Luckily no one was
injured. The pool rooms are located In

formerly used for foundry purposes.
Yesterday an unusually large number
We're present. AS tile returns from the
fourth race at Monmouth Park were
being delivered bY the telegraph
operator several planks in the
middle of the flooring began to crack.
Instantly there was a scramble from the
break, but before every one could get off
the rotten plank there was a crash and
six sports We're soon struggling in the
debris on the floor beneath.
There WAS a great rush to see how
badly the men had been wounded, but
beyond a few scratches and bruises and
the running of their clothes they were all
right. Mr. Collins gave some of the
wounded men orders for new clothes
The building is a rotten structure.

THE MANUFACTURING STATISTICS.
The most Interesting part of the census
10 many, the statistics OF manufactures,
is yet to be taken. 1t is expected that the
feature OF the next census will be more
perfect than the last was Instead of $50
cities no fewer than ! ,040 have been given
special agents and will have their manu-
features enumerated separately from the
general census The result will be more
complete and more accurate statistics in
every way.
The person who will take charge OF the
enumeration of the manufacturing
establishments in this county has not
been appointed. Mr. Grove z. Asnslie,
who was last week appointed to superin-
tend the WORK in Newark and the adj
Z jacent towns and villages. was the first
man appointed in this country and was
connected with the census of 1880.
