Some Barkeepers Found Out the Only
Way to Beat the Cash Registers.
The police have discovered that several
bartenders, clerks in stores of various
kinds, and statesmen, have been cleverIy
swindled by Chicago men, to whom they
looked for scheme to solve the mysteries
of the now prevalent cash register The
bartenders, clerks and salesmen evidently
intended swindling their employers.
In glowing terms the circulars received
by the bartenders and clerks set forth
the possibilities for an industrious person
who cared to get on ia the world. The
picture was painted in such vivid colors
that the average mans mouth would
water whether he wanted it to or not,
''Why toll and slave for your rich and
unRrateful employer and pile up wealth
for him when he cares 30 little for you
and grudgingly pays you a miserable
pittance when you should be paid mores
You have IL in your power to secure a
stipend worthy of your hire. The cash
register is not the complicated price of
mechanism you think it, It can he beaten
in amounts aggregating from 50 to $50
per day"
The circular concluded by asking SO for
the desired information. Some of Jersey

the newly discovered anarchistic plot
to assassinate Chairman Frick, of the
Carnegie Steel Company (Limited).
The Post says the plot was hatched In
Vienna and was given to the New York
police by Vice Consul Eberhardt of
Austria. The Post says the New York
police at once notified the Plttsburg au-
thoritles and close watch for Aron-
staum is being kept about all the Anar-

Mr.. Frick regards these precautions as
unnecessary, but his friends insist upon
this protection

secret by tbe police authorities of New
York and Pittspurg in the hope that
they might succeed in capturing Aaron
stamm.
In this connection it can
be said that Secretary Love-

Big HACKENSACK BRIDGE
The Pennsylvania Railroad
to Construct 1t at a
Cost of SI5o, 900.
AN IRON AND STEEL DRAW.
The Structure 10 Be 1000 Feet
Long, with Double Tracks, and
to Be Built Principally
of Wood.

The Pennsylvania Railroad has decided
to construct a new bridge across the
Hackensack River. near Jersey City. All
the arrangements for this bridge, with
drawspan. have been completed, and in
lew days the preliminary WORK of locating
the piers and piles on which the bridge is
TO De constructed is to be begun. The
bridge will be two track one and will be
constructed on piers, the rails being about
thirty-five feet above mean water mark.
The total length of the bridge will be
about 1000 feet. The most part of it will
be of wood, but the drawspan will be of
iron and steel.
Ii is expected that before cold weather
comes this bridge, with the excep.
tlon of the draWspan, will be com mpleted,
as most OF the material for it's constru c.
lion has been already secured and great
deal OF 1T prepared for immediate use. It
Is the intention of the company to con-
slfuct this bridge on the southern side of
Ine present one, and during the process of
construction there will be no interference
of travel
Inc work on the draW-span will not be
begun until the river is frozen over. or
navigation ls closed, as the construction
OF this span is delicate operation, and if
the river was open 1t would be almost inn
possible to put the heavy iron beams in
place without greatly obstructing navi-
cation.
The present bridge across the Hacken-
sack River has been in use for a number
OF years. and, although it is perfectly safe
and sound, the officers of the Pennsyl-
vania Company think it advisable TO con
struct new bridge that will have all the
modern appliances, besides being COM
posed of heavier work, which is more
suitable for the immense engines and
trains which are now run on all the prin-
cipal roads of the country.
The bridge is to cost about $50 900 and
Will be of heavy construction When the
bridge Is constructed it will be connected
with the main track of the New York
division, and as soon as everything is in
working order the work of tearing down
and removing the bridge that has done
servicefor many years will be begun.

ST. TRlNiTATlS' NEW ORGAN.
Opening Recital and Concert Last Night
"A Beautiful Instrument.

Opening Recital and Concert Last Night
"A Beautiful Instrument.
The auditorium of handsome St. Trini-
tatis Lutheran Church was crowded last
evening. Professor E. V. Cau1fieId of
Hartford, CT. gave an organ recital. He
was assisted by Mrs. A. Poetz. Miss
Martha Meyer, Messrs. Arthur Corby,
Charles Thomas and the church choir.
The new and splendid So, 900 organ was
made in this city and is pronounced a
masterpiece. 1t is the first big church
organ built here. 1t occupies the entire
space In the rear of the Rev. Mr.. Hafer's
pulpit. IL has 1000 pipes and nineteen
speaking stops. and it's metal pipes and
pedal pourdons are exquisitely colored to
harmonic with the pleasant and pretty
interior of the handsome edifice. Prof.
Cuulfield fairly captured his big audience
by his skill, bringing forth the brilliant
qualities of the great instrument.
The hinged pauels of the swells above
the tier of pipes are studded with large
gilt stars and as the swell is worked
these stars appear to grow alternately
dim and briGht in response to the vol
ume of sound.
All the performers were liberaly en-
cored at last nights concert. Miss
Meyers rich contralto voice made her an
especial favorite. but Mrs Poetz (soprano)
and Mr.. Arthur Corby (senor) sustained
the reputation they have made
on ths Hill. Mr. Corby is
one OF Arion's sweetest singers.
Miss FL. Lutjen, the regular organist of
the church, did not suffer much through
contrast Of her musical abilities with
those of Professor Caulfield, who played
selections manly from Suppe, Best,
Loretz. Paderewski. Thomas and Sousa
Mrs. Poetz sang "Tantum Ergo" (Mil-
lard), and "Waldandacht" (Fr. Abt).
Miss Meyer sang 'tUeber den Sternenn
(Fr. AbD, and other selections. Mr..
Corby sang "Salve Regina" (Bazzini),
and Mr.. Charles Thomas gave as a flute
solo Tyrolean air by Gull Popp.

LIZZIE BORDEN In COURT.
Unmoved by the Charge of Numbering
Her Father-very Weak Case.

Unmoved by the Charge of Numbering
Her Father-Very Weak Case.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 10, 1S92-Liz-
zie Borden, who was arrested yesterday
evening for the murder of her father and
stepmother, passed the night in the
matron's room of the Central prison in
stead of the cell which had been pre-
pared for her.
The reason of this was that the girl got
into dazed condition, which looked like
complete break down, when she realized
that tue virtual arrest which had lasted
for week was TO be changed into a real
one on definite charge.
After the girl had been half led, half
carried to her room by Matron Russell,
she recovered something OF the marvel
lous nerve which has been the most re-
markable feature of her bearing since
the tragedy.
She went to bed shortly after the news
paper boy had begun to call out the news
of her arrest under the window of her
place of imprisonment.
Bridget Sullivan, the servant, pass ed
the night under guard at her own home.
Emma Borden and Brother-in-law Morse
were the only occupants of the Borden
home at the time of the murder who were
there yesterday evening.
From all accounts the authorities are
not confident OF doing much with the evil
dence at their command.
1t is all of fragmentary, circumstan-
tial nature and has not vet been
welded into anything like a
satisfactory whole. Mr.. Jennings
said that he would not offer today any re-
ply TO the charges against his client Miss
Borden.
Miss Borden was arragned in the
Second District Court before Judge Blais-
dell this morning on the charge of homi-
VI IN
suffocation.
Mr.. Morse, Bridget Sullivan. Miss EN-
ma Borden and City Missionary Buck
were present. Miss Borden looked in
much better condition than she wasl in
last night just before her arrest.

THE BISHOPS VETO.
Greenville Council, G. B. L. For
hidden TO Hold Its Picnic
Covert Revolt.

A lively row is brewing in the Green
vile Council of the Catholic Benevolent
Legion. and exciting times are expected
within the next few days. The trouble
Was caused by Bishop Wigger's refusal to
allow the Council 10 hold its annual
picnic.
The picnic was scheduled for Monday
at the Greenyille Schuetzen Park. For
the past six weeks the members have
been nustling. selling tickets, and the
council has expended over 500 in print
ing.
THE BISHOPS oRDER.
A week ago last Wednesday President
Peter Mcdonald received word from the
Rev. Father Schandel that the Bishop
objected to the holding of the picnic. No
reason was given for this action and Mr..
James Woodmaney, together with several
members, visited him. The committee then
learned that some one had written a let
ter to the Bishop stating that the picnic
was to be tough affair, and that 1t would
continue all night. The letter was with
out signature, and the members of the
Council are at loss to know who was the
coward who wrote it.
Bishop Wigger said that as Monday
was a holiday of obligation and picnics
as rule were not entirely free from OBJ
jectonable characters he thought it best
for the Council to give up the idea.
A HEATED MEETING.
A meeting of the Council was held last
evening at the Globe Hotel. The COM
mirtee reported what the Bisnop had said
and the matter was argued for over two
and half hours. The meeting
was strictly secret but one
talkative member said large number of
members thought that the picnic should
be held, as all arrangements had been
completed and the Council would
be placed in an awkward
position If it were postponed.
The matter was discussed by everybody
present, aud when vote was taken it
was found that those who favored aban-
doning the idea had won by very small
majority.
A prominent member, who does not
wish to have his name mentioned. when
interviewed by JERSEY CITY NEWS re-
porter, said:-
81 think the trouble was caused by
that letter, which must have
been written .by someone who
wished to iujure the Council. The an
nual picnics have always been source OF
great profit and it is a shame that we are
not allowed to hold one this year. We
have already engaged the park. but some
sort of picnic will be held there on Mon
day."
A PICNIC ANYWAY.
This last remark strengthens the ru-
NOR that the dissatisfied members will
run the picnic under the name of another
society. It is said that If this Is
Councils picnic will be
accepted, and that the proceeds will be
turned over to the Council If this plan
Is carried out, there will be war. Proba-
bly, the church authorities will discipline
all concerned in the affair.
