BUFF" BATHERS FINED
A Dip in the Morris Canal is Dear
at a Dollar-A Policeman's
Plunge.

The need of public baths becomes more
and more obvious as the hot sea son adj
vances. The citizens of the vicinity of
Morris canal and others who live even II
distance therefrom find it difficult in
these hot days to resist a plunge in the
nearest stream, while 1t would take one
third of the police department to prevent
the small boy from enjoying the greatest
of his free summer luXuries. But there
are many complaints from citizens who
live and do business within the sight of
the canal against hordes of nude men
trunks.
Yesterday morning Police Justice
O'Donnell fined three youthful violators
of the law which forbids buff bathing
within the limits of The city in daylight.
and this morning batch Of nine grown
men were jammed in the prison pen Of
the First Police Court for the same
offence. Detectives Mcbride and Pear
son. assisted by several patrolrneu, made
a raid on the bathers. Patrolman John
Quinn was pulled overheard by one of
them.
The men were each fined 81. They
gave their names as Thomas Cullen, Ash
street; John Rafferty,, No. 40 Manning
avenue; Frederick Bowen, Merseles street;

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT..
Much Improved in Appar-
atus and Methods Since
the Insurance Men
Kicked.

Some days ago Mayor Wanser called
the attention of Superintendent Brown,
of the Fire Department, TO report of the
condition of the department made by In
spector Smith, of the Board of Under
writers, IN 1891. This report was origin
ally sent to the late Orestes Cleveland,
when he was Mayor, and several letters
were afterward sent to him in regard to
the matter, but no reply was ever made,
and the report was not sent to the Board
of Fire Commissioners. In the report
attention was called to the need OF certain
improvements in the department.
Since Inspector Smiths report many
valuable acquisitions and Improvements
have been made to the department. and
yesterday Superintendent Brown made a
report 10 Mayor Wanser of the presen MT
condition of the department. In referrin g
to The law on the erection of frame build
ings over certain prescribed height. he
says 1t is very strict and invests the Fire
Marshal with power to order the same re-
| moved under penalty of $50. and after n
certain time a penalty of $50 for every days 8
delay on the part Of owners who disobey
the Fire Marsnal's order. In the case of
buildings that tend to create or extend
cohfiagration, the Fire Marshal has the
power to order their demolition.
TELEGRAPH ALARM.
In the telegraph alarm system the
whole line has been replaced with new
wire during the past two years. The
central alarm system has been recon-
mended to the Board of Finance, but
tnat board has thus far failed to make
the necessary appropriation.
AS to the increase of the force, the
Superintendent says the permanent force
| now has all the men the law allows. The
Legislature passed bill making the de-
partment permanent one, but Governor
| Albeit saw fit TO veto it.
MUCH IMPROVED.
Since Inspector Smiths report the de-
partment has been improved, especially
| in regard TO apparatus, by the purchase
of one erlal truck, and another will be
recommended this year. Engines Nos. 2,
IS. 6 and have all be replaced
with new steamers of the most
| improved make, and 5000 feet of the
| best fire hose made has been placed
| in service. With the exception of the
| hose tenders, which the Superintendent
says should be replaced with hose
wagons, the apparatus OF the department
| is first class anu in geo working order.
In concluding his report, sunerintend-
ent Brown says:-"The rules for the gov
ernment of the department have be en-
| lately issued and cover all that is re-
| ouired, and they are rigidly enforced by
myself and the officers under my COM

Brickett's Suit.
A woman known as Mrs. Albertina
Listie, who it appears has been flying
around under the aliases OF Stewart and
Duffy, was arrested last night at No. 81
Montgomery street on complaint
of Robert Brickett, who accuses her of
obtaining $35 from him on September
last under false pretenses. Justice Mar
tiuez issued the warrant, and Constable
O'Grady made the arrest, after looking
for the woman for a long while.
IL appears that she bought lot of
furniture from an tnstallment house in
New York. Before the furniture was
paid for she mortgAged it to Brickett.
Subsequently she secured loan on the
furniturs from young Peloubet, who
lately left'the town.

ABBE1T'S HIGH H0N0RS.
He Is to Name the EX-President,
and He Has Drawn the
Silver Plank.
Special to the Jerseu CitV Ne,cs.

CHICAGO, June %, 1s92.-The New Jer-
sey delegates learned at about midnight
Monday night that Governor Leon Albeit
had been chosen to make the speech first
formally presenting Mr.. Cleveland's name
to the Convention When the States are
called for nominations, Alabama, first in
the call. will withdraw In favor Of New
Jersey, and then the Governor will take
the floor, Mr.. James Smith of Newark
arranged this for the Governor. He is
high in the councils of the Cleveland
movers, and when he suggested it to the
others it was deemed good stroke.
ABBETT's GREAT WORK.
The Governor was anxious for the op-
portunity to show that he is cordially in
line with the people in tn cir great demand
for the ex-President. The Cleveland
party were we'll pleased, of course, to get
him into the swim. and the arrangement
was easily and promptly made. The Gov
ernor has been very busy in the prepara-
tion of his speech all day. 1t was quite
amusing to see an imperturbable Hill
boomer try to persuade two or three
Jerseymen, whom he tackled in the hall
outside of Jersey headquarters, not to
force New York, while the head of the
delegation was inside preparing his Cleve-
land address.
Jerseymen who are anxious to win all
the credit for the Governor that is within
reach, claim that the Governor has also
drawn the silver plank in the platform.
They say that he was called into a con-
ference early yesterday morning. and
that long winded deliverance on the
subject was submitted to him. He criti-
cised it, and finally took it to his room for
consideration. In its place he prepared
a more succinct and less verbose declar
alton, and when it was put under the eyes
of his fellow conferrees it pleased them
all.
HAVING FUN.
The delegates took things easy pretty
much all dav. They had SO little to do
that in the afternoon they went out to
the Fair Grounds. While they were away
they talked politics pretty freely. and it
was noticed that they divided, in their
travels, on the line dra wn in the National
Committee contest of yesterday.
Allan McDermott, whom the delegation
refused to elect. has not been In Chicago.
but Mr.. Ross, who was elected, has been
in active harness all day. He has an
nounced himself formally as candidate
for United States Senator, and, to com
plete the complications to which the little
home controversy gave raise. Pidcock
says that Senat or Barrett, whom the
Governor is supposed to favor for Presi-
dent of the Sena te, cannot have the office
till he has measured swords with Senator
Cornish.
