was coming out Of the Office of Mr.. E. f.

respects to the next Governor of New
Jersey. In speaking about the published
statement that Mayor Stanton of Hobo
ken had gone to Europe to meet him in
behalf Of the ballot box suffers, the Judge
said there was no truth in the statement.
II was never more asGounded in all my
life," he continued, than I was when
saw Stanton come aboard the Augusta
Victoria at Southampton. The first thing
that occurred to me was that he had
come to see me about the election officers.

ing been advised by cable and that is
what brought me home.
II waited two OF three days for Mayor
Stanton to speak to ME about the cases,
but as the days went by and he said
nothing, I broached the subject to him,
and found that he knew nothing what
ever of the disagreement between Judge
Lippiucott and Judge Kenny. He sailed

BALDWIN AVENUE OPENING.

Property Owners WraDgllng Over Three
BlOcks-Can't Stand the Expense.
The Commissioners of Adjustments
held meeting today to receive the views
of taxpayers concerning the advisability
of extending Baldwin avenue from Acad-
envy to Church streets. Baldwin avenue
stops at Academy street and after Jump
OF three blocks resumes its course at
Church Street and ends at Wescott place.
To run the avenue through the un-
opened territory will necessitate the re-
moval of stable owned by George C,
Perry aud house owned by Otto Gehm
and man named Woerst. Mayor Will
liam Bundy on behalf of the McCrea es-
tate enthusiastically denounced. the con-
struction of this portion Of the street.
He was backed by Mr.. Woert. Real
Estate Agent Smith, who handles all of
Senator MePherson's property in this
county, was as desirous of having the
street cut through as Bundy was opposed
to it. Frank Gautier of the New Jersey
Ice Company also favored the corr pletion
OF the thor0ughfare.
After bearing the different opinions the
Commissioners decided to ask the Cor
poration Counsel if the assessment for
the construction of the unbuilt street
could be levied upon the entire city in
stead of upon the few pieces of properly
directly improved by the street. II this
can not be done it is doubtful If the i'm
provement will be made for long time.

FIGHTING THE COMBINE.
Special to the Jersey City Nesos.

TRENTON, Aug. SO 1S92.-There was
considerable talk of an extra session of
the Legislature around the State House
this morning.
Governor Albeit was asked whether
there was anything in the rumor and he
replied that nothing definite had been de-
cided on. He had consulted with the Attor-
ney General in reference to what would be
the best thing to do in case the Reading
Railroad should defy the Chancellor's in
Junction, and he thought that II more
power is necessary to carry out the order
of the Court that no doubt the Legisla-
ture would be reconvened.
Others here today say that to carry ont
the Chancellor's injunction more power
is needed and the Legislature will have
to be called together so secure it. The
Attorney General intends now to bring
suit against the Lehigh Valley Railroad
and ask for an injunction. He is now
preparing the information. The injunc-
ton against the Port Rearing and Cen
trail Railroads is being served today.

"Our Health Board is of no practical

President Feeney, yet / do not believe
that the Health Board should be SO con-
trolled: 1t is nondescript and composed
of young physicians who are under the
control of laymen The position Is such
that no first class physician would accept
it. The same may be said of the County
Board of Health. The men are not ap-
pointed because of their fitness for the
position but because of their political
pull. Therefore you see we have no re-
liable Health Board in the city or county
to battle with cholera If the scourge sue
ceeds in passing Quarantine. The Quar-
antine service must be of the highest
order and emigration should be stopped

short period of incubation of the germs.
A person leaving Europe with cholera
germs in his system will develope the
disease long before reaching here. So by
quarantining, complete record of the
disease may be kept. If cholera ever
does fasten itself upon this city, it will

"We may receive slight touch of the
cholera epidemic" said DR.. D. S. Hard
enburg. "but 1 hardly believe it will
amount to anything If it reaches
America at all. it will come by way OF
Canada. American are up to the times
IS far as medical science is concerned.
and believe that our health officers will
keep the dreaded disease out of this
country; at least. they will see that it
does not come in here through trans
atlantic steamships. The Government
ought to act in this matter. 1t should
not be the municipalities. Every city
be carefully looked after. We should be
especially careful of rotten fruit, and our
health officers should make a rigid in
spection of the markets. Our dirty
streets, of course, would help the dis
ease. but do not think that there is any
cause for alarm"
DIR. Charles Limeburner says:-"I do
not think the cholera will reach US at all,
at least not tins year. 1t is too late in the
season. aud as our ports are all well
guarded. do not fear that the scourge
will reach US. We should. however. take
all precautionary measures. believe
that there is more danger of the disease

European steamer should be subjected to
a rigid examination for months to
