IS MIR. PERKINS a sNOB9

His Objection TO the '.L'' Road Based
ON Glass Prejudices.
George r. Perkins, The Republican can
didate for Mayor, was one of the leaders
in the opposition to the proposed elevated
road to the Hill. At one of
the many meetings held at Sufke's
stables Mr.. Perkids made a
rather snobbish and at the time he was
jeered by the other property owners. 1t
appears that Mr. Garrett Van Horn had
been asked &c meet. the 'skickers." Mr.
Perkins was the recognized leader, al
though he did not own any property on
the line of the proposed road.
At the meeting Mr.. Perkins said he
would spend $35, 600 in defeating the pro-
ject. When asked by Mr. Van Horn why
ne was so bitterly opposed to it he said:-
Well ii the road is built it will have the
effect of bringing $25 and $50 houses to
this neighborhood.'
The remark was intended to convey the
meaning that Mr.. Perkins, who, by the
way, was once a poor man, wanted the
neighborhood in which he lived to be an
exclusive one-that is to say, he thought
that the elevated road would cause clerks
and mechanics to walk on the same street
as himself.
When Mr.. Perkins made this statement
it created a mild sensation among those
who were present. Several gentlemen
took him to TASK for what he had said
Although Mr.. Perkins said he was
willing to pay $35, 900 in order to defeat the
road, it is said he was not over-liberal in
contributing to the expenses incurred by
the election.

A New York Reporters Discoveries as to
Mr.. Feeney's Record.
A New York reporter, engaged Of late
in "laving out" certain Jersey City Off
cials, visited the Fuller Express Company
Office at Duane and Reade streets, New
York, and introduced himself to the
superintendent, who, by the way, is a
large and vigorous man.
Ine reporter said:-"I understand John
p. Feeney worked here at one time, and
want to know why he was discharged. -
The superintendent informed him that
Feeney did work for the concern; that he
was not discharged, but left of his own
accord to better himself
This did not satisfy the reporter, who
again asserted that Feeney had been dis
charged and demanded the reason there
for.
The superintendent repeated his state
ment and added:--Feeney was honest,
faithful and industrious in the discharge
OF his duties here and l wish all our men
were like him. When he lett the boys
contributed and we assisted TO give him
valuable parting present. we are
pleased to learn of his prosperity and be-
heye he deserves all his good luck"
"Oh come off, said the incredulous re-
porter. You know you are not telling
me the truth. want to know the reason
for his discharge. I do not believe your
story,--and." He did not conclude the
sentence. The superintendent, whose
''mad was up" drew back his long arm,
ana the scribe beat rapid retea5 to the
street, escaping the blow aimed at him.

A large delegation from the labor or
ganzations of the city had an interview
with Mayor Cleveland at his residence on
Wayne street last night The labor men
were welcomed very cordially by His
Honor, who inquired what he could do
for them.
Henry q. Gruber, secretary of the Jer-
seye Association, introduced each OF the
representative men to the Mayor lndivid-
ually, and explained that they came to
him to ask that union labor be given the
preference when scity contracts were
made. 1t was probable that Mr.. Cleve-
land would be The next Mayor, and, if
elected, they hoped he would use his in
under the new City Charter, in the direc-
lion Of seeing to it that union Offices got
the city's printing. For some time s'raE''

cred ia this respect, which was unfair TO
the union printers as His Honor, who
was favorable 10 organized labor, would

appointed to investigate the charges of
immortality made against Harry Speers an
asylum attendant. He declared with
emphasis that he would at the first meet

The Board met yesterday and all the

Mr.. Pfngsten evidently forgot all about
the charges
A complaint was received from Register
Fielder about the dilapidated condition
of the map book of Hudson county and ne
asked for new one. The request was
referred toa committee. A requisition for
building materials amounting to $3.50 was
presented by County Superintendent
Cannon and referred to the Committee on
county Institutions. The claims against
the county for telephone service were laid
over and Freehoider Tierney announced
that the joint bridge committees of Hud-

accept the Clay street bridge.
