CAMDEN, Nov. %. 1S92.-At the present
time tn ere is considerable CONSERVATION
among the sa loonkeepers of this city over
Judge Garrison's act in granting a writ
of eertiorari to the Law and Order Society
against the City Council. The trouble
arose some time ago, when abou eighty
saloonkeepers of this city wa nted to get
the 5000 excess fee which they paid the
City Board of Excise Commissioners In
1891 for a license. The County Board set
the fee OF $500. but a good many of the
saloon keepers, rather than risk being ar
rested, paid the $500 to the City Board,
and a number of them entered suit
against the city. but the Court of Errors
sustained the city in refusing to refund
the $500. The unexpected will happen,
and on Wednesday night last. at the
meeting of the City Council. that body
ordered hat the saloon Keepers be paid
500 each out Of the Treasury of the city.
This act brought the taxpayers TO their
senses and in a short time Luther
kellam. President of the Law
and Order Society, and Sam
uel Hufty went before Judge
Garrison, and made afidavit to the fol-
loWlug:-"That the said action of Com
mon Council is unlawful, illegal, fraudu-
lent and Al unwarranted attempt at
voting away money of the taxpayers OF
the City of. Camden without any consider
alton whatever" After a short consider
ton the Judge granted the writ, which is
addressed to Mayor Wescott, Common
Council, City Counsel j. Willard Morgan.
City Clerk Theddeus Varney and CITY
Treasurer F. P. Michellon. The writ was
made returnable December 10, when the
case Will be argued, and should the
saloon-keepers gain their point, SIG, 900

NEWARK. Nov. %, 1S92.-W1lliam R.
Ward of this city, who has charge of the
State Department of the horticultural
exhibit at the Chicago Fair, will start for
Chicago today to make the final arrange
ments with Mr.. Samuels, Chief of the
Department of Horticulture, and TO secure
the necessary space for the exhibition of
New Jerseys display. He will submit
the plans of a refrigerating system which
he has devised for keeping the more per-
ishable fruits, and will transact much
business which could not be carried on by
correspondent ce. Mr.. Wards experience
With the horticultural exhibit at New Or
leans has peculiarly fitted him for the
char &c OF this display, and gives a guar
antee that 1t will be remarkably good,
provided he has ample funds to pay the
EXPENSES of this necessarily costly exhi-
bition of %perishable fruit.
Primarily he has made q fine collection
of the leading varieties of fruits in orna-
mental glass jars. It embraces over a
hundred varieties. Then there will be an
assortment of the nuts which grow In
New Jersey and a display of cranberries.
When the strawberry season opens the
best which Irvington and Hilton afford
will be shipped to Chicago In refrigerator
cars. but before that there will be a
show of the fine bearing plants, which
are now being grown in pots. 1t is
believed that the strawberry display will
be the best of the kind in this whole exhi-
bition. 1t will be followed by other small
fruits as they ripen, and by Ike middle OF
July the larger fruits will begin to mature
aud samples will be forwarded. From
then on the show of fruit will be kept
right up to date by professional and
amateur growers in all parts of the State.
