THE BALTIMORE HERE
The Finest Cruiser in the Navy
Anchored Safely in Bell

The Ship Visited BY Hundreds.
A Novel Sight to Many of
Our Citizens
Three Companies From the
Cruiser to Give a Street
Parade Today

The United States cruiser Baltimore,
the pride of our new bay, anchored off
Ocean dock about II o'clock yesterday,
where she will remain during the en-
campment of the Grand Army. As
she entered the harbor she was greeted
by a salute fired from Deadman's point
A crowd assembled there an hour be-
fore her arrival eager to catch the first
glimpse Of her white hull, and watch
the arrival of the huge commerce de-
stroyer as she slowly steamed into port,
The citizens committee secured the
tug Queen City and boarded the vessel
Immediately after she came to anchor
The committee was received most cor
daily by Captain Whitehead in his
cabin. Mayor Mckenzie extended, in
behalf of the citizens, the freedom Of
the city, and Commander Street, in
behalf Of the Grand Army, extended
an invitation to the officers and men
of the ship to attend the sessions Of the
encampment.
Captain Whitehead kindly consented
to order three companies of armed
marines to participate in the procession
at o'clock this afternoon. 1t is eX-
pected that thousands Of people will be
present to witness this display. The
schools take a half holiday this after
noon to give pupils and teachers an
opportunity to see the spectacle, the
first of the kind ever seen here.
Visitors will be received aboard the
vessel every day during her stay here
between 10 "a. IN. and 4:30 p. IN. 1t is
rare occasion for the citizens Of the
Bay cities to visit the finest vessel of
her class aflOat
In the afternoon the officers were
driven about the city by members OF
the reception committee. Today they
will be taken to Lake Whatcom. In
addition to the names printed yester-
day, the reception committee who
will try to make the officers comforta-
BILE, includes the following: Senator
Frank Richards, A $ Cole, J w Nor.

est vessel i'm the navy and the largest
vet in commission there are two now
in the service, the Philadelphia and
San Francisco, whose cost was greater
and several in course Of construction
which will greatly excel her in size

AMMONIA IN BAKING POWDER
Discussion Before the American Chemi
cal Society

beIOTe
cal Society
To THE EDITOR OF THE TRIRUNE:-
/ have just seen the report In your issue
Of Sept. 3, of the discussion at the
Washington meeting Of the American
Chemical Society, Aug. IS, relative to
the use of carbonate of ammonia in
baking powders.
This report is incomplete and incor.
rect in many pal ticulars, and as the
paper which precipitated the discussion
was read by me and was based upon
my own experiments, j desire to make
certain corrections in the interest of the
truth and for the benefit Of the large
number Of your readers TO whom the
question is one Of great moment.
The paper as read before the society
related that ammonia in baking powder
| is retained in the bread by reason of its
affinity 10 the gluten. The concensus
Of opinion as expressed during the dis
cussion was against the use Of carbon
ate of ammonia in baking powder with
the only exception Of DR.. McMutrie,
who is now an employe Of a baking
powder company which uses carbonate
of ammonia in its baking powder
OF the other parties mentioned as
having taken part In the discussion
were Professor DIR. Barker, of the Uni
versty of Pennsylvania, who Is the
president of the society and one Of oui
highest authorities. In answer to
pleading by Professor McMurtrie that
only small quantities Of ammonia were
used in baking powders he stated
"No matter how small the quantity,

DIR. e. II. BARLEY, formerly chemist
of the BROOKLYN board of health and
professor Of chemistry at the Long
Island college, likewise named, did
not, | believe, take active part in the
discussion, but Is already on record a.
strongly opposed TO the use Of ammo
MUM carbonate in baking powdeIs.
Dr. Richardson volunteered only Tho
question whether the flower used in thu
experiments was Of good quality, oi
which assured him by stating that i
was the best and the flour used in my
family,
Professor Mallett was not present.
Your article is misleading In so far a
il gives the impression that ammonii
disappears on baking. My actual test
agree with those made by others, show
, ing that ammonia remains in tn
bread. My Investigations simply assigl
a new cause for its retention.

Warm Statements About Them in theI
Hoboken Council Board.
The Hoboken Council transacted con-|
siderable routine business last night, and
its session looked as ii it was to be ordin-|
ary until Councilman Weinthal's ordi-l
nance to impose license fee of 800 on|
foreign peddlers. and SO only on domestic|
hawkers came up.
1t was laid over, but in the discussionI
Councilman Tahen said:-"l think that
the council ought to take some action tol
protect saloon keepers against
grocers who sell bottled stuffs.
Saloonkeepers pay 5000 license fee and
vet know of Instances where liquor Isl
openly sold by grocers without thel
shadow of a license" This aroused
Councilman Kelly who said: Il know
of over fifty cases whre grocers sell liquor
openly"
Chairman Erlenkoetter said:-'The|
fault lies with the License Inspector, who
ought to report these cases. The Council
is at the mercy of the Inspector, who Isl
employed by the Police Board. The
Council should have an Inspector In its,
employ"
The Council accepted Colonel Stevens1
Square Park difficulty. A communica-
tion was received from Corporation At
torney Minturn stating that Milkman
Jackson, whose horse fell into
the sewer, had good case against the
city, and advised that his claim Of $135 be
paid.

reported correct with balance of $780,

POLICE ON PARADE
Made a Magnificent Display Along
Jersey Avenue-lnspection
and Review.

There is one department, at least. in
the municipal affairs of Jersey City, the
perfection of which it's citizens take
especial pride. Woe be unto that
department if it disappoints the
hopes of the average citizenl
The Police Department is looked
up by all classes of citizens as preservers
of law and order. Consequently, there is
bat little surprise manifest at the extra
ordinary display of stars and stripes that
decorate the outer walls Of many private
residences throughout the city to-
day. 1t is the annual parade
and inspection of the Police De-
partment. Along Jersey avenue the
display is greatest. perhaps because the
main features of the parade are to occur
along this important thoroughfare. The
NEWS will be on the street, perhaps, too,
while the department Is making its
magnificent display. The formation OF the
line and the route selected, was familiar
several days ago. and It's reperusual IS
not at all interesting. 1t Is enough to
know that the Department, with two
military bands leading the two battalions.
into which the parade was divided, fully
satisfied the pride of the people at
large. AS the department moved through
the streets, stoops, windows and side
walks were crowded with thousands of
Interested and enthusiastic citizens, who
applauded openly the exhibition of the
department. The inspection by the
Mayor at Fifth street and
Jersey avenue and the subsequent
review at West Hamilton place occurred
too late TO present other than an antici-
patory report OF such scene A full
report will appear in The JERSEY CITY
NEWS tomorrow,
