The description every hungry and very
thirsty" once applied to the Democratic party,
is as true now as il ever was, judging by the
reports that come from Washington. The
members of, Congress OF that faith MT only
find their mails crowded with applications for
Offices but they are continually besct and way
laid at the Capitol by hordes of office seekers.
The House was compelled to adjourn at 3
o'clock yesterday, SO many members had fed
in order TO escape the impOrtun1te demands
upon them If anything, the condition of
things is worse than it was eight years ago,
and it was bad enough then, i'll all conscience.
There can be no misunderstanding of the
meaning OF the popular demonstration which
took place in Trenton yesterday. The anti
racetrack meeting was attended by some 900
persons, who came from all parts of the State,
and it uttered the Indignation which prevails
throughout New-Jersey at the nfamy of which
the members of the Legislature have shown
themselves capable. The enactment Of the
racing bills was condemned in the strongest
way, and their immediate repeal was pcrempto-
rily demanded. 1t was decided to form State
Law and Order League forthwith, and com
mittee of fifry was chosen 10 lay the demands
Of the meeting before the Legislature. Already
there are signs Of weakening on the part of
tho men responsible for New-Jersey's present
shame. Speaker Flynn was willing yesterday
that the citizens meeting should be held in the
Assembly Chamber, and last evening one As
sembyman who voted for the obnoxious bills
announced that he was ready to vote for the
rpealers
1t was far from pleasant picture of the
condition of things in the Croton watershed
which was drawn last evening by Mr.. Martin,
the chemist of the Board of Health, who has
had unusual opportunities for learning the

O'clock yesterday morning at the home of q
family named Haugh. at No. 10 Russell
avenue. Mrs. Craft had been i'll several
days. but after her death the family
thought best 10 notify the coroner. The
husband of the dead woman was ap-
parently much surprised when informed
of his wife's demise. and stated that
he supposed that she was at Argon, Ind.
visiting her relatives. 1t seems that she
left her home two weeks ago TO
visit at Argon. but was taken sick before
che army ed there and returned to the city.
Instead OF going home she went to the
Hargbs. with whom she was acquainted.
and remained there until her death. The

Sullivan county. was yesterday reversed
By the Supreme Court, Judge Hackney
writing the opinion. The local Board of
Review added S27. 425 to the taxable value
of the banks property, and the appellees
sought to enioin the auditor from adding
this sum to the amount listed In 1890. which
was s2s5756S The opinion recites that
the appellant answered special facts show
ing additional property and additional
values. The lower court, In @ special find
ing of law and facts. declared the face
value of the bills receivable. which the
bank had listed at sl97. 1888. 80. was $685.
651.so. and that their fair value for taxa
ton. as compared with other similar prop
erty in the township. was Sl97. 1880. The
decision points out that if the Supreme
courts value for a taxation" the
appellee's schedule is insufficient by $3.50.
while If 1T must adopt the courts valua-
tion at the worth" of the bills receivable.
the appellees schedule is insufficient by
S27.749.95. The opinion then recites and
discusses the law making fair cash value
the basis of assessment and says that the
finding of the lower court Is not suscepti-
Bile of the construction that 1t states the
actual value of the property. The hnding
Is declared not to be within any proper
issue and must be disregarded. The Su-
preme Court finds the actual value of the
credits at 1925. 23s. IS. and says from this
the bank could, under the law. deduct

liant. and the lower court erred in not so
stating Its conclusions of law. IL IS In
structed TO enter Its decree In favor of the
appellant.
