PASSAGES POLLUTION.
Prof. Leeds Gathering Evidence to BE
Used in Chancery.

Prof. Leeds Gathering Evidence to Be
Used in Chancery.
Many people have been under the i'm
preston that the suit against the city of
Passaic to prevent the pollution of the
Passaic River is slowly dying of in
anition. Many people, however. are
mistaken as the authorities of Newark
and Jersey City have been busy collect
ing evidence against Passaic. During
the last hearing it was intimated that
now that the cold weather had set In the
danger of disease from the sewage in the
the water was not so great.
In order to demonstrate the fallacy of
this Professor Leeds OF the Stevens Insti-
tute, his assistant. Inspector Leake, of
this city, and Inspector Moller. of New
ark, whent up the Passaic yesterday in a
launch.
Professor Leeds took twenty-six speci-
mens for analysis from the river betwee n
the Morris and Essex bridges at
Newark and the Erie bridge at
Passaic. The Professor also made
experiments to detect the presence of salt
in the water and found traces of it all
a long the route traversed.

SRERIFFS AND JURIES.
Mr. Barton's Contention Not Likely to
Release Any One.

Mr. Bhrton'S contention NOT Likely Co
Release Any One.
Judge Lippincott does not think that
the contention set up by Lawyer Barton
in the Mercer County Courts will ever set
any convicted criminal at liberty. In a
conversation with NEWS reporter today
ne expressed himself as follows:-
''In relation to the question raised by
Mr.. Barton in the Mercer County Court.
that the Sherffs have no power to select
Grand and Petit jurors, have not passed
nor expressed an opinion. have not ex-
amined the question and do not intend to
do SO unless it is raised in Court. 1t may
be a serious question. so far as | know.
Whether it IS such or not the notion
which seems to be going the rounds. that
in case it should be held that Sheriffs do
not posses the power. that all criminals
convicted and sentenced during the last
few years would thereby be set at liberty,
is supremely ridiculous"

GERMANIA'S DEP0SlT0RS.
They Will Receive Their Money in n
Short Time.

They Will Receive Their Money In
Short Time.
The Journal last evening indulged in an
unwarranted and indecent attack upon
Mr.. William D. Edwards. 1t stated that
thedepositors in the defunct Germania
Savings Bank could not be paid their last
dividend on account of Mr. Edwards alb
sence out of town. 1t also stated that on
account of that absence the depositors
could not be paid until March Is.
The facts of the case are that
the absence of Mr.. Edwards. whose
trip out of town was entirely unavoid-
able, Will not delay the payment OF the
depositors at all and that they will re-
ceive their money long before March 15.
As the Journal quoted Mr. Melosh,
one of the attorneys for
the depositors, is its authority
for its serpentine insinuations, some of
the depositors are inclined to think that
Mr.. Meloch is trying to take advantage
of Mr.. Edwards's absence to have re-
ceiver appointed.
