Senator MCPHERSON Fight
ing the Powder Bar
ges = Board of
Trade Help.

MThe Board of Trade waited until quar-
ter to nine o'clock last evening for a
quorum. A special meeting had been
called to discuss several suggestions from
United States Senator John R. McPher-
son, who is endeavoring to have the mem
acing powder boats removed from New
York harbor, s4f
The suggestions were made by the Sem
ator in letter to Chairman Jacob RinRle
of the committee recently appointed by
the Board of Trade, to investigate the ex-
Jersey City is subjected through
the close proximity of these
barges. When the government magazine
was removed from Ellis Island the pow
der and other explosives were stored upon
barges anchored in the vicinity OF BLACK
Tom. Chairman Ringle states that all
explosives manufactured within radius
upon ramshackle barges anchored In the
harbor, most of them are near Jersey
City's water front.
A LIVELY FIGHT.
In his letter to Chairman Ringle, Sena-
tor Mcpherson says he proposes to carry
the war into Africa. He asks that the
Board of Trade give him all the facts in a
memorial addressed to Congress. Finding
it impossible to get the Secretary
of the Treasury to act, Senator
Mcpherson introduced a resolution in the
Senate against allowing the storage OF
powder In boats in New York harbor.
The Secretary of the Treasury gave or
ders to the Commissioners of EmmiRra-
tion to remove the Government powder
stored at Ellis Island to safe distance
from the Island.
The Senator's resolution was referred
to the Committee on Commerce. He
suggested In his letter the appointment
of a committee to prepare memorial,
and IL it is possible. he will secure day
for personal hearing OF the local comtt-
tee by the Committee on Commerce at
Washington.
THE COMMITTEE.
AS it was but special meeting Of the
Board called to consider this Important
matter, it was decided to appoint COM
mittee. President Dear appointed Jacob
Ringle, George w. Watson and Robert
Anderson, with the President and
Secretary as ex-officio mem.
bers. The committee will meet
Senator Mcpherson at Taylor's
Hotel tomorrow morning to discuss the
preparation of memorial to Congress.
Should the Committeesgo to Washington,
its expenses will, doubtless, be paid by
the Board.

Superintendent Matthews showing Fred
Kissam How to Count Noses.
Room 2S at Taylor's Hotel is at present
occupied by State Superintendent of the
School Census John Matthews. The
presence of immense stacks OF paper,
legal documents and BOOKS demonstrates
that he is here for business and not
pleasure.
Last night Mr. Matthews instructed
thirty gentlemen whom he has engaged
as enumerators. That ne mas dincnlt
task before him of impressing upon the
minds of his agents their duties, will be
realized when it is explained that the
best known of the enumerators are Fred

rigid course of training last night, and

deaf and dumb, aud If their fathers are
citizens and residents OF this enumeratlng
district. Each enumerator receives flve
cents for every name he turns in to the

from the last census shows that the enum-
orators should secure at least two tnous-
and names each. for which they Will re-
ceive 500.

Have Hers, Too?
There was an unusual incident at the
Court House this morning. Miss Chris
tina Magnolia, a pretty dark eyed woman,
accompanied by burly policeman, ap-
peared before Lay Judge Kenny and
asked the Court TO sign her application
for citizenship papers.
In answer to the Judges questions Miss
Magnolia said she was born in Italy and
came to this country when she was
twelve years old. She is now twenty
one and for the past eight years she has
lived in the State OF New Jersey. Con-
stable Wise administered ths oath of al
legiance without tremor. and the young
woman brought her application to the
County lerk's office.
The object Of the proceeding could not
be learned. 1t was said, however. that
Miss Magn nolia had applied to the West
Hoboksn Town Council for. saloon
license and that body had refused to
grant 1t on the grounds that she was not
q citizen.

A Brave Conductor.

The conductor of a passenger train
near Saline City, Ind, a few days ago
by his presence of mind averted a hor-
rible accident. The train was standing
at the station, when by some mistake q
freight train was backed upon the main
track. The engineer on the passenger
train, to avert a collision. reversed his
train and with the fireman jumped. The
collision was slight, but the passenger
engine soon was running at a fr;ghtful
speed. The conductor, noting the de-
sertion of the engineer and fireman, at
the risk of his life clambered over the
tender and closed the wide opened
throttle, stopping the train just in time
to prevent collision with an incoming
train. in.-Philadelph Ledger.
