Judge Caldwell, leaves today on his vaca-

MIR. Dickinson will probably have direct

PETRIE FOR THE FIREMEN,

c. A. NJ. Petrie was sworn and stated
that he was u fireman and was chairman
of the grievance committee of their order.
He stated that the engineers had gone over
most of the ground and in the main what
affected one affected the other. Referring
to Mr.. McConnell's statement that the rates
of pay had been Increased almost one-half
in ten years he stated that in that time
injectors had been substituted for pumps,
steam heaters, lubricators and steam brakes
had been put in, all requiring the use of
steam and making the freman's work that
much more. To show that the claim of
the men that the increase in the size of the
engines neCessitated the burning of more
coal Mr.. Petrie stated the coal and water
carrying capacity of the tenders was about
double that Of the old and smaller engines
formerly used on the system, The rate of
wages had not been increased on the class
of engines formerly used exclusively on the
road. He denied that the hremen had ever
used threats and said they had gained ali
the concessions they had received in friendly
conferences, lie stated that the hremen
had from one to six hours work, according
to circumstances, in cleaning up their en-
gines after the end of each trip. for which
they received no compensation, In answer
to a question the witness said the hremen
had never struck on the Union Pacific. The
old rules, he stated, were generally salts
factory to the hremen, In response to a
question by MIR, Thurston the witness stated
that his organization was the only one hay-
ing authority to represent the fremen.
Mr., Mcdonnell was recalled in rebuttaI and
stated that formerly the nremen had many
duties to perform which they did not now
have I'm the way OF cleaning engines. He
stated that the old engines were smaller and
did less work. but burned about the same
amount of coal as those now in use. The
new ones had so much more heating surface
that they developed more power out OF the
same coal.

CHANGED HIS DRINK
Counsellor Dougherty Says
He Was Poisoned By a
Glass of Cider.
PURCHASED AT MARBLES
Has Brought Suit to Recover
$4,000 for Pain He Suffered
in Consequence.

Counsellor William M. Doughtery, of the
Fuller Building, drank glass of cider
few weeks ago in Patrick McArdle's saloon,
on Exchange place. 1t made him sick, in
fact Mr.. Dougherty alleges that it poisoned
him. How long he was confined to his bed
by reason of this poisoning does not appear.
At any rate Mr.. Dougherty values his lost
time and agony of being poisoned with cider
at $4,000
He has brought suit for this sum against
Mr.. McArdle. The case will be heard be-
fore Judge Lppincott on the Goth inst. Mr..
McArdle has been summoned to appear In
court ON that date and file an answer.
MARBLE SURPRISED.
The first Mr.. McArdIe knew of the trouble
was about one week ago when he re-
ceived postal from Counsellor
Dougherty requesting him to meet him at
his office in the Fuller Building last Saturday.
Mr. McArdle did not receive the postal in
time to keep the appointment. On Monday,
however, he found Mr.. Dougherty at Chan
Gerry Chambers Mr. McArdle approached
the learned counsel and asked him what he
wanted. Mr.. Dougherty proceeded to tell
him.
'seYou sue meY' almost yelled Mr.. Nc
Ardle. Mr.. McArdle then made a hot reply
and departed. He happened to mention the
matter to Counsellor Manning and that
legal light recollected that Mr.. Dougherty
had said samething about being poisoned by
drinking cider in his (McArdle's) saloon.
Mr. McArdle smiled and since then has
paid no attention to the case.
BUT NOT SCARED.
'sWhy, can produce hundred men who
have been drinking my cider for months"
said McArdle this morning II drink it my
self every day. and I have not been poisoned.
Neither have any of my customers. l do
not wish to say anything complimentary
about the gentleman, but there is mistake
somewheres. Cider never harms anyone
who is accustomed to it,
Mr.. McArdle has not as yet retained coun-
sci to defend him. He appears to regard the
matter as joke more than anything else.
Counsellor Dougherty, however, is pain-
fully earnest about his own suit to re-
cover

THE GARRETsoN COMMITTEE

Will Meet Friday Evening to Com
slider the Central's Prop OsitfOn.
Chairman A. @. Garretson, of the Reform
Democratic Committee has called meeting
of his colleagues for Friday evening in
Roche's Hall, when the proposition of the
Central Democratic Committee win be con-
sidered. The propositions is that the Reform
Committee shall appoint committee to con-
fer with that appointed by Chairman E. F.
C. Young, of the Central Organization, for
the purpose of finding some means of
uniting the scattered portions of the Demo-
cratic party in the county. Mr.. Young's
committee is as llows:-Messrs: =. +. G.
Young, Frank II. Kimmerley, William G.
Heppenheimer, Thomas Hickey, John P.
Feeney, James N. Davis, Joseph Mullin, R..
Mcmillan, w. Fl. Ellis, C. j. Tahen, John
Herman and George Bruce
On Friday evening in all probability the
Reform party will appoint similar Com
mittee, and then these will meet, make con-
cessions and sacrifices, and complete the union
of the party.
There is one thing very certain that the
Reform party will never unite with the other
wing of the party unless the latter is purged
of certain elements to which these Reform
people are unalterably opposed. The rule
by certain boss and his discredited and
dishonored satellites must stop and that boss
must pet out. This viii be insisted
upon and about this there will be
no compromise by the Reform Committee.
Messrs. Garretson, Grouse, Fisk and Gordon
will listen to no temporizing on this point
They are very much in earnest on the ques-
ton of reforming the party, and they mean
to weed out those obnoxious parasites who
are sapping the vitality of the Democratic
trunk. When the Conference Committee is
appointed a meeting between the two COM
mittees will Immediately ensue.

MAY APPEAL TO BISHOP WIeGER
Catholic Relatives of the Deceased
Butcher Foley May Take This Step.

Catholic Relatives of the Deceased
Butcher Foley May Take This Step.
The exclusive publication in The JERSEY
CITY News last night of the death of
Butcher James Foley and the failure of his
nephew to secure the consent to the burial of
the deceased from Catholic Church, caused
great excitement on the Heights, and in
Catholic circles througout the county. The
deceased was a butcher in Washington Mar
ket, New York He worked at night, sleep
ing at home during the day On this ac-
count he did not attend to his duties as a
Catholic. The family had for
years lived in Monsignor Seten's
parish, but two months ago moved into
Father Ter Woert's. When Foley died the
nephew called on Mgr. Seton, and requested
that the funeral services be held
from St. Josephs Church Foley not having
lived in Mgr. Seton's parish, qe told
the nephew to see Father Ter Woert and
secure his consent. The nephew did call ON
Father Ter Woert, but the latter did not
know Foley, and, of course, could not give
consent.
Under these circumstances, the friends be-
came incensed, and it was decided
to bury Foley from the house, the funeral
service to be read by the Rev. DR.. Warren
of st. Mary's Episcopal Church.
The Catholic relatives of Foley feel badly
over the fact that the deceased will
not be buried in consecrated
ground. and it was said this
afternoon that Bishop Wigger had been ap-
pealed to, to allow Foley to be buried from
the church and in st. Peters Cemetery. The
funeral will take place tomorrow morning.

four officials, who figured with John Y. Nc
Kane at the last election, were taken to the
Court of Oyer and Terminor, Brooklyn, this
morning to plead to the various indictments
which have been found against them by the
January Grand Jury.
Judge William j. Gaynor occupied the
bench Police Justice R. v. B. Newton,
Kenneth f. Sutherland, Jacques S. Stryker,
William j. Gladding, Constable A. S. Jamie
son. Town Collector Morris and eighteen
election inspectors were arraigned to plead
to the indictments The charges against
Sutherland and Newton are contempt of
court, conspiracy and neglect Of duty in con-
nection with the election laws. After the
names of the twenty-four men were called
out and each had answered in answer
to Clerk Byrnes' call, all the men
were asked to stand up and plead.
Justice Gaynor, who was on the bench at
point. refused to allow the men to plead. He
said he would not try the cases, as he was in
terested in them before the election, and he
did not think it would be proper for him to
hear the pleas of the men,. advised the
lawyers to go before Justice Cullen, who
was sitting in an opposite court room. JUS
tice Cullen, however, also refused to hear the
pleas and adjourned the hearing until Friday

WAS CASTLEMAN OFFENDED

The trial of Joseph Schultze for man
slaughter, yesterday, resulted in disagree
ment of the jury. As published in The
NEWS yesterday, Schultze was charged with
killing Frank Kreiger because he called the
American flag id dirty rag.
The jury retired at noon yesterday and re-
manned out until eleven o'clock today, when
they were discharged by Judge Hudspeth,
after he was assured that they could not
agree. It is believed that eleven jurors were
from the outset in favor of verdict of as
sault and battery and that James I. Castle
man stood out for manslaughter. 1t was
said today at the Court House that Castle
man was secessionist during the late rebel
hon and that he became enraged at the glow
ing tribute paid the American flag by Ex-
Judge Hoffman when he summed up the
case for Schultze, ana that his feelings of re-
sentiment induced him to stick from first to
last for manslaughter, to get even with Ex-
Judge Hoffman. Castleman was a witness
at the trial of j. Guiteau for the assassina-
tion of President Garfield

1.-THE CoMMUNIST-ANARCHISTS TO THE PRO

1--WE wage war against private property,
against the State, and against the Church--a
war having for its object their utter anni-
hilation."
'iWe repudiate the institution of private
property, because its history is the history of
all human suffering So long as private
property prevails there will be rich and poor,
but the latter will be dependent on the
former
sWhoever, therefore, is truly striving for
the happiness of mankind at large must join
us in the cry, "Down with private proper
s1The State, far from being, as many fancy,
an institution for securing the general we'll
being of the people, is simply means OF de-
tense that the rich have set up against the
property-less.
..Private propertyScan only be overthrown
by the destruction of its guardian, the
State. Both institutions must stand and fall
together. The watchword, therefore, OF
every consistent champion of freedom must
be, Down with the State" "
s.The church-no matter what its partic-
ular denomination may be-is the conden-
sation of the most enormous swindle ever
perpetrated on humanity.
ss1f therefore the battle cry is to be raised
against all that tend to hold men in slavery,
submission, and ignorance we must not fail
to exclaim: "Down with the church, down
with all creed-swindler and priest-humbug.

The President Forced To suspend
the Session.
Bv Gable to the United Press.

By Gable to the United Press.
ROME, Feb 20, 1s94.-The Chamber of
Deputies met today for the first time since
December o.
Signor Crispi, the Prime Minister, made a
brief announcement that Baron Sonnino,
Minister of Finance, and ad interim Minister
of the Treasury, would make a financial
statement tomorrow. He added that after
ward he would ask that day be fixed for
the Chamber to discuss the recent disturb
ances in Sicily and Carrara and other ques-
tions relating to public order.
Signor Zanardelli. the President of the
Chamber, declared that the postponement by
Signor Crispi of the discussion of the ques
tions relating to public order was approved
by the Chamber.
This caused the widest kind of a turnult
among the opponents of the government:
Above the din and confusion could be heard
the voices of Signori Imbriani and Caval-
lotti, the Radical leaders, protesting against
the Presidents statement. Finally the up
roar became so great Signor Zanardelli sus-
pended the sitting.
