George Berger and the Fast Time Build
er Have Lively set-to.
One day about twenty -dse years ago the
Creator. having finished an investigation
into the Darwinian theory, concluded TO
experiment The result of this venture
was Joe Cutley. Joseph from early child
hood was different from other people. He
was ever willing, however, TO initiate
other carnivorous animals in his search
for ber-lud and last night he found all the
blood he wanted.
While Joe was busily engaged in not
finishing the mason work OF the new Po-
lice Headquarters he very forcibly an
nounced the fact that he was a pugilist
of great merit. he was great unknown.
He simply lived on fighting, for fighting
and by fighting.
George Berger, an equally reckless ex-
pertinent, who frequently calls on
Garry" was put in possession OF these
facts, and Notwithstanding the fact that
the loud talking mason weighed twenty
pounds more than he, he challenged
him.
The usual diplomatic and Envoy Ex-
traordinary proceedings between beln-
gerents took place and resulted in de-
claration OF war. IL was agreed to SETTLE
the affair last night and for that purpose
Galley aud Bergen met at Oakland rink
The drop-curtain was not raised. but
on the stage a twenty-four foot ring was
roped off. George Heller, with a clean
shaved face was present, as referee aud
master OF ceremonies. and Sam Knowles
and Joe Noonan acted as seconds and
time keepers.
Only four rounds were fought. The
grave diggers in the county regret this,
Tor another round might have resulted in
a beautiful double funeral.
Round first-Berger from the start had
the best OF it, and pounded Cutley's nose
in style that would have Iickied pile
driver into fits.
Round second-Berger continued his
advantage, and frequently caused CuIley
to say "OhP' when feeling for his wind.
Round third-Cutley struggled from
the ropes and was knocked down as
neatly as he desired Berger continued
to search for Cutley's wind.
Round fourth = Both men groggy.
Berger stumbled over a straw, ana Cutiey
begged for the bottle holder. They
met, they fell. and the referee
says CuIley conquered. No one
else said so. Berger's stomach
gave out and while he stopped to cast up
accounts Cutley played havoc with his
bangs He pounded min we'll
Thus ended the fight Cutley has one
more on hand.

IA. IA. TAX BILL!
The Grand High Inquisition Measure
Buried in Committee.

Special TO the Jerseg CITY Nel0s.
TRENTON. March 5, 1s9l.-No better de-
monstration Of the popular belief that the
new tax bill is practically dead could be
wished for than that furnished by the
proceedings of the Judiciary Committee
yesterday afternoon. The committee had
announced that a hearing would be given
upon the bill and the announcement was
given considerable publicity. When the
committee met however no one was
present to be heard and all that the COM
mittee did was to receive three amend
ments.
Assemblyman Sharp of Burlington sub
mitted an amendment which provides
that all funds held by benevolent institu-
tions for tine support of feeble and dis
abled mem bers; the widows and orphans
of deceased members, and for the educa-
ton of the children of deceased members,
shall be exempted from taxation. Assem-
blyman Williams again submitted his
amendment to abolish tha poll tax, but
the committee would not listen to him
Mr.. Williams submitted another amend
nieut which met with more favor. 1t
provides that the last clause of the bill be
amended so as to include the five county
act. The result of which will be TO ex-
empt from taxation mortgages in Hudson,
Essex. Union. Bergen and Passaie and
the cities of New Brunswick, Trenton
and Camden.
Mr. johnson, Chairman of the Judic-
iary Committee, expressed the opinion at
the close or the meeting, that the Dill
would not leave the committee before ad-
journment; at any rate. ne said, not in
its present form.
The Governor is reported to be Of the
opinion that it might not be wise to pass
the bill now in view of the strenuous op-
position to it which has arisen in all parts

TRENTON, March 5. 1S9L-The members

knotty questions of how to distribute TO
the best advantage in the State the eight
Congressman to which New Jersey is now
entitled. The scheme of Congressman

Much in Doubt.
II it evident that the sugar provision Of

trous to the Republican party in its
operations as have the other provisions Of
this infamous measure. The last effort
Of the Republican party, to allow the re-
flung of all sugar in hand after Monday
last under the provisions OF the law
which goes into effect April l. will not
rebound TO the benefit of consumers; in
fact, very little. If any, reduction in
price may be noticeable, and in all events
not until after April l.
At the office OF the New Jersey Sugar
Refining Company iS was said that MOTH
ing definite would be said relative to any
reduction in price owing to the effect OF
the new law. Everything would depend
on the demand. If a lower price was
charged an increased supply was natur-
ally looked for. but the question was
pr0blematical. Moth ing definite could be
said.
