The Indian is again Fastening his ex-
tinction this winter. In Oklahoma the
weird and terrible ghost dances are once
more in progress. The infatuated people
enter ON them in the midst of cold,
fatigue, snow and hunger, and they keep
at it. A considerable number have died
from exhaustion and exposure to winter
weather.

the Congressional Campaign Committees
in this city will be In constant touch with
the moveme nts of both parties in every
Congressional District In the country. A
feeling of uncertainty as to the outcome
will make hard work necessary, and the
celerity with which Senators and mem
bers have already left the city to partici-
pate in the campaign, plainly indicates
that there will be no lack of shoulders to
carry the burden.
In many of the districts the cam paign

already made its appearance. 1t
is a compact little volume of sixty

North Hudson Railway Facilities Being
Steadily Improved.
A rumor was current in Hoboken yes
terday that the franchise granted by the
State Electrical Subway Commission to
the North Hudson County Railway to
operate its elevated road from the Ho.
bCken ferry to the Heights by electricity
gave it permission to extend the trolley
over its entire system. The rumor was
found to be untrue
The Hoboken Board of Council q few
weeks ago notified the railroad company
to cease operations and to abandon the
project of the trolley on the elevated read,
as 1t was dangerous to life. The com
Pany paid no attention to the notice but
continued erecting poles, and made ap-
plication to the Electrical Subway Com
mission for permission to complete the
road. The company has only received
permission to erect poles and wires on the
elelated branch.
On inquiry at the company's offices in
Hoboken, 1t was learned no effort had
beeu made to secure franchise for the
en- re system, and that outside of the
ele ated and Eldorado branches, horses

Stand Trial.
FOR KILLING JOHN DlEDRIcKsoN.
Prosecutor Winfield Expects to Con-
vict Him of Murder in the.
Second Degree.
FOR KILLING JOHN DlEDRICKsoN.

This morning before Judge Lippincott,
Herman Bunger, the longshoreman, who
stabbed John Diedrickson, his foreman,
to death on the Bremen dock, on the
night Of July 13, was admitted to bail In
the sum of SIC, 900. and was released from
the County Jail.
On Saturday Judge Daily, who has been
engaged to defend Bunger. made applica-
tion before Judge Werts to have Bunger
admitted to bail. A Coroner's jury had
previously heard the testimony of sew
eral Witnesses at an inquest in
Hoboken. All of the wit
nesses testified that Dedrickson
was possessed of brutal disposition and
was dreaded by the men under his con-
troll and the jury brought In a verdict
exteuuatipg Bunger. Principally on the
strength OF the verdict, Judge Daily asked
the Court TO fix the bail at $1,000. Prose-
cutor Winfield opposed the application
and said he expected TO at least convict
Bun2er Of murder in the second degree.
Judge Werts, fixed the bail at 10000
PLENTY OF FRIENDS.
From what transpired at the Court
House this morning, Bunger did not ex-
perience the slightest difficulty in obtain
LIS AAO bi& 0IuO0Ae VA bcbAA ACNulI0u.
Shortly after Court opened, Judge DAILY,
George Schilling, Fred Hense anu Theo-
dere GroeuIng, Hoboken business men,
and Mrs. Bunger entered the Court room
Mrs. Bunger is an elderly, honest looking
German woman, and her eyes were red
from weeping.
Judge sLippincott was downtown and
the party waited for him. At noon the
Judge arrived, took his seat on the bench
and summoned Clerk Heavey. The pris
oner was brought in from the County
Jail. He is a big. powerful looking man,
and has rather wicked appearance.
THE BONDS.
George Schilling was the first to step
forward and state that he was willing to
forfeit 10000 il Bunger would not ap-
pear when wanted. SchillinR stated
that he owned the two five-story brick
houses at Nos. 67 and SO Willow avenue,
and that he valued them at $25, O00 There
were no encumprances aud the Court ac-
cepted the bail. Fred Heuse and Theo-
dore Grooming also affixed their sigma
lures to the bail BOND and Burger was
released from custody.
Bunger has as many friends among the
longshoremen as the deceased had
enemies, and they have made a collection
to defraY the expenses of defending Bun
ger. The defence will be self-defence.

INSANE FATHER TRACY.
His Friends Want Him Released
from an Asylum = The
Bishop Opposes.
Special to the Jersey citu Ne,es.

TRENTON. Aug, 1692.-A bitter fight
has broken out in the diocese of Trenton
over the incarceration of the Rev. Father
q. +. Tracy. of Burlington. now confined
in the State Lunatic Asylum, at Trenton.
During the coming week an effort is to
be made by his friends to secure his re-
lease by writ of habeas corpus. The
church authorities of the diocese, prfn-
cipally Bishop O'Farrell and Chancellor
McFaul. will oppose his release. Many
Catholics and Protestants throughout
the diocese, principally those in South
Jersey, have signed papers asking that he
be returned to his parish at Burlington.
Rather Tracy was committed to the asy-
Ium and is now chargeable to the Chan
cellor of the diocese. He is talented
Young lrishmau whose erratic course dur
Ing the past five years has been a matter
OF more or less noJoriety. He was a hard
student, but he neglected all exercise and
lived the life of a recluse in the rectory of
st. Pauls Church of Burlington, which
IS located on the banks Of the Assacunk
Creek, now one of the most unhealthy
places of the town.
PRAYING FOR HIS RELEASE.
His constitution has been broken down
by disease and he is now suffering from
mania with deluslons. Since his incar-
ceratlou petitions have been circulated
throughout the various parishes and his
brother is now urging the Bishop to re-
consider his case. The signatures of
Protestants were also obtained, and this
petition will be presented at a hearing
some time during the coming week.
Allan II. Gangewer has been retained
as counsel to secure his release on a writ
of habeas corpus. He has had an inter
view with the Bishop and Chancellor and
finds that they are firmly convinced that
they have taken the right course for the
protection of the public. He has also
seen his client and is of the opinion that
he Is not sufficient insane to warrant his
Incarceration
CHANCES FOR RECOVERY GOOD.
DIR. Ward, in whose charge he was
committed, states that his chances of re-
covery are good and he has already
shown signs of improvement since he
came into the institution. He spends
much OF his time reading church books
and he refuses to exercise. claiming that
he cannot go around the grounds in COM
pany with ProtestanUs.
Father Tracy being an ardent Republi-
can, charges that the Bishop and Chan
cellor are Democrats, and they are con-
spring with number of the managers
of the lunatic asylum, which is composed
Of all Democrats to deprive him of his
liberty so that he can take no part in the
fall campaign. 1t looks as IL there would
be an intense struggle on both sides In
the fight for the priests liberty.

TWICE ON FIRE.
Singular Blaze in a Greenwich
Street (New York; Drug
Store.

NEW YORK, Aug. s, 1892.-Fire broke
out at half-past eight o'clock this morn
ing in Tarranu & Co.'s big wholesale
drug store at Warren and Green
wich Streets This is the second
time within week that the building has
been on fire. Last Wednesday night a
part OF the third story was burned out.
and the fire this morning is supposed to
have been caused by sparks that Were
left to shoulder in some oul-of-the-Way
corner.
The curious thing about 1t is that Fire
Patrolman Bacan has been in charge of
the building ever since last Wednesday,
anc he was on hand this morning when
the f1re broke out again. No one seems
TO be able to explain it very satisfactor-
lily.
The establishment occupies three build
ings on Greenwich street, Nos. 27S, $50
aud 2S2. The first one. on the corner OF
warren street, Is three. story brick
building, in the lower part or which
is tho retail drug department.
Nos. $50 and 2S2 are i've story, stone-front
buildings comprising the wholesale de-
partnlent. the upper floors being stored
with bales and packages of drugs, oils,
chemicals and general pharmaceutical
supplies.
The tiremen were slow in getting to the
scene of the fire. and in few minutes
the building was a roaring mass of
flames
After an hours hard work the flames
began Co subside, but not until the two
upper floors OF Nos. $50 and 2S2 had been
completely gutted and the entire con-
:ents OF both buildings drenched with
wafer.
The value of the building and the stock
IN the entire establishment is estimated
at $25O.000, and it is thought that the
losses by the two fires may reach $4,000
The company carried an insurance of
10000.

THE AWFUL WATER.
Inspector Leake's Report Suggests
an Impending Epidemic.

1t was twelve o'clock today when the
Street and Water Commissioners had
finished ringing the new long distance
telephone which graces their office and
We're ready to go into session. All the
members were present. A petition for
the improvement of Seventeenth street,
between Jersey avenue and Henderson
street, was received. Subsequently re-
solution asking the concurrence OF the
board OF Finance in the work was passed.
This is the first petition for an improve
ment received in two weeks.
THE AWFUL WATER.
A report from Water Inspector Leake.
which was read by Clerk Bouton, made
cold chills run down the backs of the
commissioners and many of the men in
the lobby. Leake's report began with The
pleasing announcement that sixteen dead
dogs and two bag: OF cats, In frightfull
state of decomposition. had been removed
from the river near the intake.
The Inspector further states that
the water is in filthy con-
dition and has not been
as bad in years. The Inspector fears an
epidemic of some disease arising from
the use of the water. It's present condl-
tien is due to the fact that there has
been but little rain and consequently
very little water is coming over the Falls.
The inspector also reported that the city
OF Passaic has made $500 sewer connec-
tions with the river. and also that fac
tories in which are employed about 5000
hands had built closets near the river,
the contents emptying into it.
+ Second River has been in filthy condi-
tion up as far as Montclalr, the water at
times being as black as ink. Judge
Teese, of Newark, recently erected two
large houses in Belleville and built closets
within ten feet of the waters edge. New
ark has abandoned its fight against the
City of Orange to prevent the emptying
OF sewers into the river, and Jersey City
stands alone to make the fight against
the further pollution of the ctty's supply.
GATOR AVENUE WIDENING.
Residents of Greenville interested in
the building Of the new Fifth precinct
station house, petitionsd to have Gator
avenue widened from thirty feet TO sixty
feet. Through Mr.. j j. Detwiller 1t was
asked that the city dedicate for the use of

Gently purchased for the station house
site. Mr.. Detwiller few days
ago purchased the property adjoining
Detwiller now offers to sell the land at
the purchase price. The Commissioners

propriate 81, $50 for the purchase of the
adjoining property and thus be enabled
to widen Gator avenue.
Bids were invited for the improvement
of Hooker avenue. Seven contractors
submitted estimates. q. O'Neill was the

specia, to the Jersev ofty Ne,u,.


TRENTON, Aug. 8, 1S92.-Had the Fish
ing Railroad bridge on last Saturday
evening he would have seen something
that would have made his eyes open wide
with astonishment, and at the same time
have furnished him with good cause for
the incarceration of pair of fishermen In
Jail. Two men were observed standing
on the bank, from where they threw stuff
resembling dough, into the water, after
which they stood peering at the various
places where it was thrown and sank from
sight. Suddenly great c1mmOtion was
observed in the water. and fish ranging
in size from two to six or eight inches
were seen to leap up, and after falling
back into the water again, would swim
around for a while as IL In great terror,
then suddenly they would turn on their
backs and f1oat down stream with the
current. This is what the men who
threw the stuff Into the water were wait
ing for. just as soon as they saw a num-
ber of the fish floating, they waded into
the stream and scooped them up
with nets. After getting what they
could in this way they jumped into boat
which they had close at hand, and bv this
means reached great quantity of fish
which would otherwise have floated away.
1Iley COuUiuueu tUlS u6GHOQ OIL procuring
fish until they had at least two thousand
small fish altogether. A great number
of fish were allowed TO float down the
stream, the men deeminQ them too small
to bs of any use.
On being interrogated as to the method
employed in catching or rather killing
the fish and their reasons for so doing
one of the men said that the stuff used
was sort of a nut, which was procured
at drug store. This was pounded up
fine and mixed with dough, which was
then thrown in the water as seen. After
it was eaten by the fish it acted upon
them as delirium tremens does on q sot;
In fact, it firsJ set them crazy
and afterward killed them. They
wanted TO, use the fish for bait on set
lines They did not tor moment con-
slider the fact that at present there are
thousands and perhaps millions of young
shad in the river that would no doubt be
killed by the stuff, nor did they seem to
care Such a method as this of catching
fish is certainly disreputable and against
the law.
II the Fish Warden would only take
the trouble to visit this aud localities
above it on Saturday evening he would
ofteu find good and sufficient cause for
action in his official capacity.

Young People. on the Hudson.

The splendid barge Susquehanna left
the long dock at the foot OF Fourteenth
street, Hoboken, yesterday morning with
about five hundred persons, mostly young
people. aboard for trip up the Hudson
to Washington Park. 1t was the an
nual excursion of the Friendship Club, "a
social organization composed of members
from the vicinity of West Hoboken aud
Union Hill An ochestra enlivened the
occasion, and some of the young folks en-
loyed dance as the barge moved through
the sunlit and moonlit waves. The
visit to Washington Park was
greatly enjoyed, though not, perhaps.
so much as the trip homeward. The
moon rose full early in the evening and
the picturesque Hudson was fairly alive
with excursion barges and steamers It
was late when the party reached home, as
the prayers OF all that they might remain
as long as possible to enjoy the river
night scene. which was positively fairy
like, were answered.
