CITY HALL OUTLOOK.

Enough Money For the Co ntractors. but
Where Does the Architect Come In?
The bids for the erection of the pro-
posed new City Hall have caused consid-
cradle surprise. They are much lower
than anybody expected. Mayor Wanser.
particularly, is pleased. He is of the
opinion that a building such as Architect
Broome's plans cali for cannot be ere cted
at any lower figure than the contractors
have guaranteed to do it for. The piling
work at about $4,000, is very low.
The Commission has on hand $4,000 in
cash. which Is the sum saved from the
$500, 900 set aside for the purchase of the
site. Under the law $4,000 is allowed
the Commission from the sale of city
property. or this sum 5000 has been
used, which leaves $45,0 900. With the
100000 to be secured from the sale of
bonds. the Commission will have S263. 900
to spend altogether. The bids amount to
S258.000. which leaves over and above all
cost $1,000.
The difficulty, however, arises as to
where the Architects percentage, the
Inspectors salary and the expenses of
the Commissioners will come in. Mr..
Weart believes that matters can so be
arranged that these expenses may be
met by Legislative relief. 1t is highly
probable that the awards will be made
under the present bids.

BETTER DAY DAwNING.

nIr. Fielder on the Outlook for the Hud-
SON Democracy.
Congressman-elect Fielder, who is at
the head of the movement begun by the
Committee of One Hundred dtore-orRanize
the machinery of the Democratic party
in this county. has not yet taken the in
iriative step. The Congressman had stated
that he would name the committee of
eleven mem bers of the Committee of One
Hundred to meet q like committee of the
County Committee yesterday, but he has
not done so. and from what Mr.. Fielder
said this morning the chances are that
the matter will remain in 5tGtlt quo until
next month.
I met CbnRressman-elect Fielder at the
Court House this morning and asked him
II he would furnish me with the names
of the Committee of Eleven.
The committee has been selected, y
Mr.. Fielder said. sbut do not feel at
liberty to make their names public as yet
You can state that there will be no meet
ing between any members of the Com
nlittee OF One Hundred and the County
Committee at the regular meeting Of the
County Committee tenight.
"Mr. Davis has requested me to let the
matter rest until next month, when there
will be an election OF county committee
men, at which over ene-half OF the mem
bers are to be elected. Mr.. Davis said
that better element would be elected
and the Committee of One Hundred has
decided to wait until after this election.
II am sanguine that a better day is
dawning for the Democracy in Hudson
county. as the interests of the party will
be in better hands"

BACK TO OLD IDEAS.

The Mercer County Grand Jury Recon-
mends a Whipping Post for Wife Beaters.
Special to The Jersey City Netos
TRENTON, Nov. 1s, 1s9s.-Among the in
dictments returned by the Mercer Grand
Jury yesterday afternoon was the follow
ing presentmeut:--
The grand inq uest of the State of New
Jersey in and for the body of the county of
Mercer, upon their respective oaths, present,
tnat IN the discharge of their duty they have
cases OF assault and battery committed by
husband on wife, in many instances of an ag
greYated character and in some of such nature
That they were clearly within the prohibitions
that very many OF the injured wives were un-
willing to have due and proper punishment
meted out to the delinquents for the reason tn at
II such punishment was by way of fine and
OF the defendants would really be the greatest
sufferers, and consequently they would
prefer to endure cruel and almost inhuman
treatment than TO be deprived of the supppor t
and maintenance of the husband. and to be left
without any means OF meeting their daily wants.
The inquest believe that the crime of wife beat
ing Is not on the decrease In this county, and
that there Is no meauer OF more contemplate
crime on the calendar nor one which demands
more prompt and efficient action at the hands of
the authorib es
And the inquest further presents that In their
opinion the time has come when it is necessary
to take decisive measures to stamp, out and
eradicate, so far as possible, this crime, and to
that end they recommend that the whipping
post be established in this State as punishment
for wife beaters, and that punishment by public
whipping be inflicted In all cases where it is
pracucabis. This melhod of punishment has
been tried in other States, and it has direct
and beneficial effect in lesssning the number Of
such cases. 9oN

SMALL ITALIAN RIOT.


Captain Hayes Assaulted on the Ham
burg Wharf
The Fuerst Bismark of the Hamburg
American Steamship Line sailed yester-
day afternoon on her first voyage
to Italy. About 1850 Italians gathered
on the wharf in Hoboken, and the
officers soon discovered that more pas
sengerS had tickets than the vessel could
accommodate. They refused to les any
more on board. The Italians became
demonstrative and word was sent to the
police station for assistance.
Captain Hayes and squad of policemen
responded. Captain Hayes saw two men
acting as rIngIeaders, They were
selling tickets to the Italians, and
taking them on board the ves-
sci under the pretext that they
wanted to see friends off. When the
tickets they had were examined, they
were put off the steamship.
Captain Hayes ordered the two men to
leave the dock. They refused, and one of
them struck the captain over the head
with cane. The captain was not in uni
form and the other Italians closed in
upon him. The police came to his rescue
and the two men were arrested
At the station house they said
they were Petrio Andronio, banker, of

threatened. The crisis only awaits the
leader. and the eyes of Republicans are
turned to Berlin and William Walter
Phelps.
Mr.. Phelps will be succeeded In the Ger
