HOBOKEN'S TAX BUDGET.
Has Council Legal Right to Modify
1t t?-TaX Boards Position.

The Hoboken Common Council met
last night to discuss the report of the
Tax Commissioners. The Commissioners
were present. Freeholder Ellis said that
he WAS requested TO speak for the Com
missioner5, and asked the Clerk to read
the Mayors message, section by section.
After this was done Mr.. Ellis said:-
MR.. ELLIS SPEAKS OUT.
"The City Treasurer stated to me that II
we did put little money in the sinking
fund it would he good thing for the city.
We placed $3, 900 in that fund, and later
shall show where it was needed. The
appropriation Drilling in Hudson Square

quest of the Health Board. The

the Water Registrar that there are
houses where the people have not drop OF

so that there could be no charges that

ALEGAL QUESTION.
At the close of Mr.. Ellis speech it was
suggested that the Common Council had
no right to alter the report OF the Com
ordinance. Corporation Council Min
turn said that it was the general opinion
among lawyers that the council must
follow the Tax commissioners report.

WANSER- -SCUDDER- SMITH .
The following appeared in the New
York Sun this morning:
SMITH REPLIES TO SCUDDER.
Says He's Trying to Make Jersey Cit

Says He's Trying to Make Jersey City
Good and Republican at the Same Time.
In sermon on Sunday the Rev. DR..
Scuader of Jersey City said: AS long as
Police Surerntendent Smith remains in
Office we may expect little else than the
present lawlessness and defiance on the
part of the saloon keepers. When Mayor
Wauser gets through with the Board OF
Works let him pay his respects TO Super
intendent Smith and ask him to resign"
CDR Scudder, said Superintendent Smith
Yesterday, is an active Republican poll
tician. He makes his pulpit political
stump from which he advocates the cleo
ton of Republican candidates. Before
the last election he called NEE ting OF
ministers, and endeavored to get up
boom for the Republican candidate for
Mayor. His effort failed. The majority
of the ministers were not disposed to m TX
practical politics with their religion, and
by their positive refusal to join in the
scheme thev virtually condemned Dr.
Scudder and his method. | have
never had any conver sation with DR..
Scudder, and why he should attack me
am at loss to understand. If his mo-
tives are not political, what are theyf |
am a Democrat, my predecessor, On lei
Murphy, is a Republican. | have been in
charge OF the Police Department. only a
short time Chief Murphy was RI the
head of it for many years. Did DR.. Scud-
der ever attack Chief Murphy for not en-
forcing the law? Perhaps the good Doc
tor is not aware of the fact that the Sun
day law is being moro strictly enforced
than in great many years. When DR..
Scudder came to this benighted city from
the far west and took upon himself the
task of makiugit good and Republican at
the same time, ne could discover wicked
ness only in departments controlled by
Democrats.
Il have this proposition to make to DR..
Scudder. II he will bring me letter
from Mayor Wanser directing that the
Sunday law be more rigidly enforced than
it is now, will guarantee that not sa'
loon in this city will be open even the
least little bit.
Heretofore vixen the city bad Demo
cratic Mayor and the Democrats had a
majority in the Police Board, the response
bllity for not rigidly enforcing the Sunday
law was thrown upon the Mayor and the
Commissioners. Now that there is Re-
publican Mayor, why should DR.. ScuddeI
try to fix the sole responsibility upon me:
1t looks as if there might be some politics
in it aside from the desire to conserve the
public morals"

feared that this may have led to his
early death. He was about thirtY-six
years of age and single.

Wool Market Conditions.

The demand for wool is not as strong as
it was a week ago. Manufacturers are
now well supplied. The goods market IS
in excellent shape, and the mills are all
busy. The consumption OF wool is heavy,
and has greatly increased during the past
year, There are at present no indications
of wool prices advancing and manufactur-
ers feel confident Of securing wool month
hence on as favorable terms as it can be
bought now. There is therefore little
pressure to buy, and dealers show very lit
tie inclination 10 force sales. Quotations
on all grades are firmly maintained. The
markets are more heavily stocked with
domestic WOODS than they have been in pre-
vious years at this time This is an element
Of strength rather than weak
ness, for tho wool is in stronger hands.
Dealers are much batter able 10 wait for
manufacturers 10 buy than growers. The
receipts from the country are beginning TO
fall Off, and the accumulation from now on
will De less rapid. The buying is still
largely Of ficeCes. The ure lower reia-
lively than other woods, and buyers have
availed themselves OF this ADVANTAGE.
There is less dolnG in Territories. Texas
woods are quiet California and Oregon
woods are dull. Pulled woods arc moving
slowly. Stocks in pullers' hands arc lighJ
Skins ase costing more than they did year
ago, but wool is on the average
&c. lower than in August, 1891.
Australian WOODS are quiet. The
next London sales will open September
-. About 900 bales will be offered,
but very little OF it will ne suitable for this
country. French and German manufac-
turers are expected to DC the principal
| buyers At the June sales the French
were not strong competitors, and their
stocks are now thought TO DO light. The
1 depressed condition OF the English mills
may have some effect on prices, but the
general opinion is that the advance win be
maintained Carpet manufacturers con-
tinue TO buy quite freely. Now that woods

Guided, there is a better demand for
