Gross Violation of Rules in the Hoboken
Police Depa rtment

Gross Violation of Rules in the Hoboken
Police Department.
This morning while couple of report
ers were looking over the police and Re-
corder's blotters in Hoboken their atten-
tion was called to an entry on both books
In which the name of the man arrested
had been changed and another substi
tuted. The reporter started an investi-
cation aud learned enough to justify
them In the belief that someone connected
with the police department had deliper-
ately violated the rules.
On Saturday afternoon O well dressed
young man was found drunk ac the Ho-
boken ferry by Policeman Joseph Kenny.
He had just left a cab. and the cabman
told the policeman that he got his fare at
Delmonicos, New YORK. The young man
was SO drunk and boisterous that be was
removed to the police station in the pa.
troll wagon. AT the station house he was
searched and besides $500 gold watch,
several business cards bearing the name
OF we'll known cotton broker and an adj
dress on Cotton Exchange place, New
York, were found. The young man
muttered that he lived at Orange. The po-
lice found that he had telephone in his
house and his brother came on. A re-
porter happened to be at the station
house when the brother entered He
was particularly anxious that the family
name should not appear In the news
papers. Recorder McDonough discharged
the high flying young cotton broker on
the payment of fine.
The names of all persons arrested are
copied from the police blotter to the Re-
corder'S blotter. Both of these books the
reporters have access to- Someone has

RAILROAD AVENUE NUIsANoEs.

If Necessary the City VIII be Sued to
Enforce q Remedy.
Health Inspector Benjamin waited
upon Mayor Wanser this afternoon to call
his attention to the filthy and dangerous
condition of Railroad avenue between
Warren and Henderson streets. Health
Inspector Benjamin has frequently asked
the Street and Water Commissioners for
aid in having the evil remedied, but rs
yet nothing has been done. Contractor
Shanly who constructed the elevated
road for the Pennsylvania Railroad. has
frequently promised the Street and Water
Commissioners to bear half the expense of
repairing the broken sewer, but as yet
he has not madeshis promises good and it
is his delay, it is alleged, that is causing
the present trouble.
Inspector Benjamin intends having
Mayor Wanser communicate with the
proper authorities ON the subject, and. then
If the desired relief is not forth
coming. suit will be brought
against the Mayor and Board
Of Aldermen, and in this manner
the blame for the existing condition of
affairs will be established either on the
city, Contractor Shanly. or the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company.
The blame once established, no stone
will be left unturned to compel the
proper persons to repair the sewer. II
matters remain as they are at present in
this locality an epidemic of fever seems
inevitable.

ber, and E. ]. Blackburn, grocer of No.
527 Grand street. who was elected at the
last meeting. qualified.
James I. Golf then agitated the Sunday
closing question by moving that COM
mittee be appointed to wait upon Mayor
Wanser and ask him to order all stores
closed on Sunday. Several members
spoke against the motion. Their argu.
ment was that it would hurt the Associa-
tion IN many ways, and probably do no
good after all.
The motion WAS lost. Z
Mr.. Meyer then suggested that the
members be notified that the Sunday
closing question would be discussed at
the next meeting, and that committee
be appointed to call on some of the grocers
and butchers with view to finding out
their opinions. A motion to this effect
by Henry Hoersch was carried. and
Messrs. Hoersch, Banks and Broom were
appointed on the committee
II. J. Van Glon of Hoboken, said that
he hoped Hoboken would be left out in
this matter. He thought it useless to
try Sunday closing there. Hoboken was
striken out and the meeting adjourned.

THIS MADE A STIR.
Considerable surprise was occasioned
In official circles when it was learned that
Mayor Wanser had refused to sign the
Fifth Precinct Station House resolution
of the Board of Street and Water Com
missioners, because he was not we'll
posted on the purposes for which the
money was to be spent. One official re-
marked that ''It would be advisable for
his Honor to learn what is going on
about here before he partially condemns
plans to improve branches of the city
government"
Ex-Mayor Cleveland spent today in his
his old office, clearing out his desk and
causing the removal of all papers and
has caused much comment.
Counsellor Spencer Weart has qualified
as Secretary to the Mayor, as has also
Mr.. Graft. as Clerk to the Board of Edu-
cation.
WILL NOT WRITE A MESSAGE.
Mayor Wanser will not send a message
to the Board of Aldermen as was expect
ed he would do. He decided not to write
a message yesterday, owing to the fact
that the Aldermen have not the power to
carry out any suggestions he might make.
If had decided to send a message to
any of the Boards" the Mayor said to me.
sit would certainly be to the Board of
Street and Water Commissioners. This
Board is virtually the handspring of the
city government, and to the members of
that Board will make several sugges.
tions. 1t would be exceedingly foolish Of
me to communicate with Board that
has power only to grant licenses and pass
election bills"
