woMAN,s RIGHTS IN RouMAN1A.
A Woman Mayor and n Discouraging
Minister of the Interior.

The woman's rights movement in
Roumania has received new impetus
from tho recent election OF n woman TO
the mayoralty of Branesci. Meetings
OF women are being held all over the
country, with view to organizing a
woman's league for the purpose OF
booming women for city officers. The
MINIS OF the league will be followed in
observance of the fact that while women
are legally eligible to all local Offices
in Roumania, public opinion and the
constitution are against admitting
them to parliament and granting them
tho ballot.
The league will therefore be an
association of women who will merely
plan and execute the best means of
influencing their husbands and brothers
10 support other woman for municipal
elective Offices. The headquarters of
the league viii be in Bucharest where
the woman have been inspired to strong
efforts for emancipation" by the
achievements and fame of their queen,
Carmen Sylvia.
The female mayor, whose political
success has stirred this agitation, is
Mrs. Anna Jonescu, 45 years old, and
the mother of three children. She
has been q woman's rights agitator for
some time, and has gathered about
her great crowd of strongminded
Roumanian women, who are now
tormenting her with loud and numerous
demands for all the Offices at her dis
posal. In fact, their cries for spoils
have been so persistent that they have
reached the ears of the minister OF the
interior and have imperilled the whole
cause of woman's rights in Roumania,
for the minister has said that unless
this office-seeking and the attendant
evils cease he will not only refuse to con-
firm Mrs. Jonescu's election, but will dis
courage by all lawful means similar
candidates. in the future.-EX.

Is THIS A CONCEALED NURDER7

At the Coroner's inquest last night in Newark, in
fhe case OF James Mcdonald, who found dead AT
the Fourthst crossing OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
in Harrison December 20, several railroad EN-
Moves testified that judging from the condition of the
bodv ard its position on the track It impossible
that tho man should have been struck by a train.
The only wound was deep cut at the base Of the
skull The presumption had been that Mcdonald had
been killed in jumping from the midnight train from
Ncw.York, but freight train passed the spot an
hour aftcrward and would have ground the body To
nieres The testimony indicated that VI Donald had
tean killed and then placed upon the track
