PRESIDENT GEORGE W. YOUNG.

The many friends of Mr.. George W.
Young, in this city, will be pleased to learn
Of his latest advancement in the financial
world. Yesterday at the meeting of the
Directors of the United States Mortgage
Company of New York City, Mr.. Young was
elected president Of the company. This in
stitution has a capital and surplus of $780,
000, and numbers among its board of direc-
tors many of the leading men of Wall street.
1t is a marked compliment to Mr.. Young's
ability that he should have been selected by
such men to preside over their institution,
and all the more SO as Mr.. Young is only
t~wenty-nine years of age, and probably the
youngest man in the country occupying SO
important a position.
Mr.. Young is distinctly a Jersey City boy.
As a lad he was employed in the law Office of
L. & A. Zabriskie. He received an appoint
ment to West Point, but decided not to be-
come a soldier. In May, 1882, he entered the
Hudson County National Bank as assistant
bookkeeper, and soon rose to be receiving
teller. In September, 1889, he was elected
secretary and treasurer of the Title Com
pany, which position he resigned JULY, 1898,
to accept the vice-presidency Of the United
States Mortgage Company.
Mr.. Young's Advancement has been due to
his earnest devotion to the institutions with
which he has been connected, and the integ-
rity and executive ability he has displayed In
his work. Before his career closes he will
occupy a prominent place among the great
~financiers of the country.

HAD A LEVY AGAINST HoBoKEN
Corporation Attorney Minturn Failed
10 PAY the Costs for tho City.

Corporation Attorney minturn Failed
to Pay the Costs for the City.
Constable Richard Dewey called at the
Mayors office in the Hoboken City Hall yes
terday afternoon and announced to Mayor
Pagan that he had an execution against the
city, amounting to $44. 20, which he intended
to serve.
9"What shall I do with it, asked Dewey.
why, make a levy, of course" answered
the Mayor. 'sBut what is it forY'
Dewey explained that it was in connection
with a suit instituted a year ago against the
city by Furniture Dealer Cordts of Hoboken.
Judgment was secured to the amount OF
$616.0
The suit involved what is now known as
the Germania Theatre. Before Cronheim
operated the place as a variety hall, the
management had endeavored to secure a Ii
cense to sell liquor. The management paid
the money in advance to the city, and after
the cash had been turned over to City Treas
urer Smith the license application was de-
MED by the Common Council. Cordts had
advanced the money for the license, and he
promptly instituted a suit against the city to
recover when the money was refused him.
He engaged Messrs. Collins & Corbin of this
city as his attorneys, and the suit was de-
cided against Hoboken. The money was all
paid Cordts, except the $44. 70, which con-
SUtubeu un6 cOSlS Oh bne sui. by Sonic ludu-
~vertence, Corporation Attorney Minturn, as
agent of the city, to whom the
money was transferred to pay the
Judgment of Cordts, neglected to
pay the costs, and, while he gave a receipt
for the money in full to the city, did not turn
it over to Cordts. Mr.. Minturn declares it
was purely a mistake, and that he will pay
the money to Cordts as soon as he can find
proof that it was not paid. The attachment
was not levied.

PENIS WOODS.
How the commemorative Forests
Are Being Destroyed.

How the Commemorative Forests
Are Being Destroyed.
The assessors lists from the different
counties show that at present, out of a total
of 23,425, 900 acres comprising the entire
area Of the State, only $685., 900 acres, or
35% per cent, were reported as timber land.
From this total probably Is per cent can be
deducted for land which Is now in sprouts,
has been burnt over, etc, leaving as the
total area on which merchantable timber is
found about 5000, 900 acres, or between 20
and 81 per cent, of the total. This is GER
tainly q great falling off from the original
condition Of the State. As the forests,
which acted TO a certain extent as storage
and distributing reservoirs, were removed,
the water from rains and melting SHOWS at
once run dow the mountain sides, and the
effects are readily seen in the enormous loss
of life and property from the annually re-
curing floods in our rivers and creeks, and
also the low water which is found in our
more prominent streams in the summer
months, many of the smaller Tivulets being
dried up.
Speaking generally, the most densely
wooded counties of the State are found in the
central and northern-central portion. al
though Pike County in the eastern portion,
has the largest percentage of wooded line. If
the counties are arranged according to the
percentage of timber which is found within
their limits, the more prominent would rank
about as follows:-Pike, Cameron, Potter,
Elk, Clearfield, Clinton, Fulton, Carbon, etc.
While those most sparsely wooded are, Al
legheny, Philadelphia, Montgomery, Bucks,
Wayne, etc.
There is, certainly, quite a large amount
of waste mountain lands, especially in the
coal regions, which could, with advantage to
the State, be put into timber, and would, if
properly managed, yield q revenue in money
irrespective of the benefit to the community
at large,-F. l.. Bitter in Forest Leaves.

TRANCE E~VANGELIsTs

GREENcAsrLE, Ind, March 9, lS94.-Much
excitement exists in this country over the
results of the preaching of two trance evan
gelists from Illinois and a woman who is
with them. Lucas Martin, a farmer, has
gone mad. He wants to preach is a nude
condition. He says Jesus Christ was nude.
Ella King became crazy after remaining In
a trance for three days.
A protracted meeting lasting thirty-six
consecutive hours has just closed. One man
prayed. Soon his hands began to rise, until,
on tiptoes, with oustretched arms at full
length, as if ready to ascend, he stood for
thirty minutes by actual count. Then he
fell to the floor and remained in a trance
for several hours. Six others followed the
same programme. At other times ten at a
time were shouting prayers, tearing their
hair and having all sorts of visions. Some
said that they had conversations with
Christ. Two more persons are threatened
with insanity.

THE COURT CONSTABLE
County Clerk Mclaughlin Carried
Out the Orders of the Court.

A4CAAA
Out the orders of the Court.
The recent action of the Court of Common
Pleas and County Clerk McLaughlinin regu-
lating the pay of Court constables, may re-
suit in a bill being introduced in the Legisla-
ture making the pay of the constables
monthly instead of daily, as it now is IN
til recently, as has been published in H
JERSEY CITY NEWS, Court constables have
been paid ON Saturdays and holidays, al
though they are only to be paid for each days
work performed. County Clerk McLaugh-
lin, after looking up the law, consulted
Judges Hudspeth and Kenny, and the Court
decided that the county ought not to pay
oonstables for services not rendered. 1t,
therefore, advised County Clerk McLaugh-
lin to deduct from the pay roll of last week
the amounts that had been paid for holidays
since July 4, 1893, and also not to pay Court
constables in the Court of Common Pleas or
General Sessions for services Saturdays, be-
cause these courts do not sit on this day.
Concerning the Circuit and Supreme
Court room, Judge Lippincott had already
dismissed all the Court officers excepting
"Pop" Cook, Sergeant-at-Arms Zeller and
Court Crier Welsh for the term, and they
were not entitled to pay for any day there
fore. Judge Lippincott holds court Satur-
days, and the three Court officers retained
by him were considered by the Judge suffi-
Gent for court duty on that day. They will,
of course, receive pay for Saturday, and SO
will any other Court officer that the Court
REQUIRES.

THAT WOODLAND SEWER.
Railroad Company Causes Ia City a
Heavy Outlay.

Contractor P. J. Condor, who is construct
ing the new Woodlawn sewer in Greenville,
began this morning to elevate underneath
the Lehigh Valley Railroad tracks in order
thathe may lay the siphon for the sewer on
the bed of the Canal. Superintendent
Murtha of the railroad was present, but he
did not interfere with the work. Thu Street
and Water Board has entered into an agree
ment with the Railroad by which Contrac-
tor Condor is allowed to complete the sewer
at the Canal. The conditions of the agree
ment are that the Street and Water Com
m~issioners shall place beneath the surface of
the meadows the large sewer pipes which
were laid upon piles and brick abutments on
the surface, thereby shutting the railroad
company from laying tracks there. This will
cost the city a large sum Of money, but as it
was the only way out of the difficulty it
was decided upon.
1t is doubtful now if Contractor Condor
can complete the sewer before next fall. The
pipe on the meadows, which is over a half
mile in length, will have to be raised and the
excavation which will have to be made, will
be hindered by the piles which were driven
to a considerable depth.

FRASER'S POSITION
Not an EnViab1e One, De-
spite Drug Trio AS
SuTanCeS.
MAYOR WANSER AMUSED
His Honor Never Nominated /"
Fraser-A Distinction With a
Decided Difference.

The action of the ''drug' trio of the Board
of Finance in claiming that Mayor Wanser
failed to withdraw the name of John D.
Fraser as a nominee to the Board OF Finance
is characterized as ridiculous by His Honor
the Mayor, his friends and a score OF legal
lights who have given voluntary opinions on
the tricky proceeding. Mr.. Fraser, the trio
declare was "re-conf1rmed" a member OF
the Board of Finance, and on the ground
that the reason he was removed was because
he was not confirmed by a vote of at
least two-thirds of the Board of Finance
A glance back at the minutes of the board
at the time OF its organization reveals a
peculiar state of affairs, which, on the face,
win upset the claims made by the drug"
trio that Mr.. Fraser is now a member OF the
board.
NEVER NOMINATED.
Mayor Wanser, when he created the
presented Board Of Finance, maintained
that the law of 1898 requiring q two-thirds
vote to confirm was unconstitutional. As a
result he never nominated John ID. Fraser as
a member of the Board of Finance, and as a
consequence did not submit his name to the
board for confirmation.
He appointed John D. Fraser without any
s'ifs' or lands" a member of the Board OF
lldlct SuECCCO COlA LQCAobCAhs
He did not nominate nor did he ask for
Fraser's confirmation. The same course, as
reference to the minutes will show, as
pursued in Commissioner Detwiller's case.
When Mr.. Edelstein instituted quo udr-
rdnto proceedings against Mr.. Fraser, Mr.
Detwiller resigned his direct appointment,
and was then nominated n confirmed by
the board. This course was not pursued in
Mr.. Fraser's case, and on what ground the
s'drug trio" base their contention that his
nomination" was never withdrawn is a sub
ject of much comment.
IN A BAD POSITION.
ssThe Mayor could hardly withdraw a
nomination he never made" said a well
known lawyer this morning.
'sThe Finance Commissioners, in my
opinion, rather than having improved their
position lave made it worse n | fully be-
lieve tina when the case is carried to the
courts, where 1t certainly must be settled,
Mayor Wanser will come off the victor"
MAYOR WANSER KNOWS.
81 never nominated Mr.. Frazer for FL
nance Commissioner F" said Mayor Wanser,
laughingly, this morning. II appointed him
outright. / never sent his name to the board
for confirmation. I merely notified Mr..
Fraser that l had appointed him a Finance
Commissioner. About the action of the
board l have nothing to say"
This morning Mayor Wanser happened to
be walking up Montgomery street, when Mr..
Simpson doomed up at the corner of War
rem. Simpson didn't wish to encounter and
he did q neat little dive into a place of bust
ness on the corner, which is adorned with
