COLONEL ABERNETHY RECOGNIZED.
He VIII Now Fulfill the Duties of
Police Commissioner.

Colonel Hugh H. Abernethy, who was ap
pointed a Police Commissioner last April to
succeed James E.. Kelly, by Mayor Wanser,
was recognized yesterday afternoon as u full
fedged member of the board by President
Feeney and Commissioner Van Keuren.
Ex-Commissioner James Kelly has not been
recognized by Mr.. Feeney ever since Colonel
Abernethy made a demand for his seat. A
suit was instituted to establish the
legality of Mayor Wanser's appointment
and, pending a decision in the case, Mr.. Fee
ney refused to recognize either Kelly or
Abernethy, and, as a result, he and Mr.. Van
Keuren nave been conducting the affairs of
the department on their own hook.
As a board, they ordered warrants drawn
for Kelly's salary, but they are on file in
warrants, which have either not been signed
by the Mayor in office or hung up for som
other reason. Colonel Abernethy will prob.
ably bring suit now for the recovery of his
back salary.
Colonel Abernethy was summoned to Police
Headquarters yesterday afternoon at two
o'clock. With President Feeney and Com
missioner Van Keuren he conferred until
fifteen minutes past three o'clock, when the
board met and ordered the December war;
rants drawn and ordered paid all the old
claims against the board. The Police Board
is the only board in the city which will be-
gin the new year without a cents indebted
ness to deal with,
There has been some speculation as to
whether an effort would be made to install
Colonel Abernethy as President of the
board. The annual election of officers was
held April, and Mr.. Feeney having been
chosen, he will, of course, hold that position
until next April, if not longer.

GOVERNMENT BUILDING UNSAFE.
The Old Ford's Theatre Could Not be
Patched Up.

WASHINGTON. Dec. %, 1sss.-The old
Ford's Theatre building, whose collapse
caused the death of twenty-one clerks and
serious injuries to many more, and which
has since been patched up again by the
government, it now officially pronounced UNI
safe for occupancy as a government office by
the District Building Inspector and Col
George H. Elliott Of the Board of Army
Engineers and Capitol Architect Clark.
In the light of these facts it is not among
the probilities that the Secretary Of War viii
order the clerks of the Record and Pension
Office to return to that building. 1t is be-
lieved that they will be permitted to remain
in the Union building where they are now
located until Congress convenes and makes
other provisions.
The last Congress appropriated SO, GOO with
which to put the building in a thoroughly
safe condition, presumably for the purpose
Of returning the clerks Of the Record and
Pension Office to work there when it had
been declared safe by a committee of three
army engineers for the appointments of which
provision had been made in the bill approp-
rating the money for the repairs.

Ex.czar Reeds Tariff Report.

Once again the wall of Republican
anguish arises because the Wilson bill
protects. This time it is uttered by
Ex-Czar Reed as leader of the minority
party in the Committee on Ways and
Means. 1t comes out in the minority
report of that Committee, and it is
loud, prolonged and despairing. The
protectionists cannot get over it that
the Democratic party will not follow
their example by causing a sudden re-
volutIon. Theycannot get over it that,
however devoted to their principles
in the abstract, the democrats in Con-
gress refuse to rush to theoretical ex-
tre1nes before the country is ready for
them.
Ex-Czar Reeds report is simply the
ingenious quibbling of an unscru-
pulous partisan. The charge that the
Wilson bill docs not protect enough"
is lost sight of in the rage that it
should protect at all. There is no
serious attempt at pointing out errors
in it, no serious endeavor to SO advise
Congress that its imperfections may
be reInedied. IL is, pure and simple,
an effort to put the Democratic lead
ers in a false light before the people
by accusing them of abiuring their
pledges in not presenting such a tariff
bill as Mr.. Reed chooses to think the
Chicago Platform presaged.
MI. Reed bewails the fact that this
is not a final settlement of the tariff
issue that the people must pass upon
it again, and one Congress after an
other must pass upon if. This is
mildly amusing. Mr.. Reed used to
profess to regard the Mckinley act as
the final settlement, but the people
very quickly undeceived him. Now.
we venture to forteil that the Wilson
measure is much more final as to ten
dency, and that future changes will
simply be developments of its main
principles of ad valofem assessment,
removal of the duty on raw material,

lions which liberal methods can procure,
have secured for Christmas week the beauti-
full comedy drama of 1.-THE Harvest Moon,n
which has received the general approval of
the press and public, in all the principal
cities of the Union.
The play will be presented by a company
of dramatic artists of unusual strength and
excellence, each performer having been es-
pecially selected and engaged for the part he
entertainment which for power, beauty and
finish has seldom been exceeded.
The company is now much stronger and
the play better than ever, and will no doubt
do a big weeks business.
There will be an extra matinee Christmas

Saturday matinees.

The City.s Banks.

A glance at the statements of the
Jersey City banks, just published.
affords an interesting means of com
parison as to their standing in the
community.
The old reliable, The First National,
stands at the head, with total re-
sources of So, 095, 913.sS and deposits
jnst short of So. 200, 900, viz, 81, $780,
$50. So. This splendid showing is
surely a compliment to President
Young. Cashier Conklin, Assistant
Cashier Omberson and their polite
and accommodating assistants.
Next after the First comes the con
sentative, sturdy and cautious Hud-
son County National, with total re-
sources of 50, 027.s79.17. The quiet
elegance of the Hudson County's new
banking house has no doubt attracted
customers, and President Washburn
and Cashier Hardenbergh stand in
the estimation OF the community as
representatives of honesty, ability
and caution.
The third bank in point of total re-
sources is the Second National, it being
nearly one-half a million dollars be-
hind the Hudson County. A few
years g this bank stood second
with total well up to those
of the First National. Its total re-
sources are now only So, 571, Atlas. It's
individual deposits, subject to check,
are 81, 1872, $40. -. a good proportion of
which is city funds. Its President is
William Hogencamp.
The last of the national banks in
point of tota! resources, but a bank
that will soon nov up a point on the
list, is the energetic, pushing, young
Third National, with total resources
of 81, 030, sol 20, This bank is
out of the heavy business
centre of the city. but its
growth has been steady and sure and
a credit to President Carscallen and
Cashier Ross. The loss of the city's
deposits TO the Second and a slight in
crease in the volume of the Thirds
business would reverse the relative
positions of these two institutions.
Apart from the national banks, the
growth OF the New Jersey Title Guar
antee and Trust Company is on every
ones tongue. Its forthcoming state
ment will probably show total assets
of nearly $2,0 200. 900. which is phsnom-
inal in an institution of it's age. 1t is
most wisely governed by a representa-
tive board of directors, while Secre-
tary Hulshizer and Assistant Secretary
John Alvin Young are capable and
obliging executive officers. They are
both young men, but both have de-
monstrated their ability.
OF course, the Provident Institution
for Savings is recognized as a rock of
financial responsibility. Its new
building has every accommodation for
its patrons who are a legion in num-
Der. The Beehive" bank is a house
hold word in this city.
This city has every reason to be
proud of its financial institutions, and
it should show its appreciation by a
more equable distribution of the
city's funds.
