NOT MRS. NOLAN OF FIFTH STREET
The Lady Arrested i'm Ehr1ch's Gave
the Wrong Name.

The Lady Arrested i'm Ehr1ch's Gave
the Wrong Name.
In Thursdays JERSEY CITY NEWS there
was an account given of the arrest in New
York of Mrs. Nolan, Fifth street, this
city, for stealing fur boa from Ehrich's
dry goods store, Sixth avenue. The woman,
when arraigned in jefferson Market Police
Court. gave the above name and address,
and was held in So0O bonds Tor examlna-
tion.
Now there happens to be a Mrs. Nolan re-
siding in Fifth street, this city, and this lady
is extremely annoyed that everybody inn
agines her to be the shoplifter. She indlg-
nantly denies all knowledge OF the
one could have given her name and
address. Mrs Nolan says further
that she has not been in New York for two
weeks prior to yesterday when she went to
Enrich Bros store to make inquiries as to
the offender.
Whoever the woman is who was arrested
and gave that name, she is known to Captain
Kelly, who exonerates Mrs. Nolan of Fifth
street, but refuses to tell who is the culprlt.
Not only do the police here refuse to tell
anything but in New York there are the
same efforts used to suppress the offenders
name 1t is said that the woman is a well
known member of this city's society and has
been in a similar scrape before.
When JERSEY CRY NEWS reporter Wis
tied jefferson Market Police Court yesterday
to make inquiries no one there seemed to
know ANYTHING about the case. One OF the
small army of clerks in that dingy, dirty
courtroom allowed the reporter to see the
charge sheet, but would not exhibit the bail
book or tell who was security for the $500.
An examination was set down for this morn
ing 1t was adjourned and the clerk could
not say to what date
ssI guess it will be settled soon," he re-
marked. as he walked across the court room
to refresh himself at huge spittoon.

GENERAL GRUBB TALKS
Doesn't Believe There VIII Be
Two Senates Line OF
Legislation.

A reporter of THE JERSEY CITY NEWS
had an interview with General E. Burd
Grubb last evening, as he was about to board
been, earlier in the evening, the guest of
Van Houten Post, G. A. r. asked him
what he thought of the chances of the Re-
publicans for organizing the Senate.
II think" he said, s'that they will organize
it. I do not look for any cause SO suicidal
on the part of the Democrats as obstruction
would be. The temper of the community,
under all the circumstances of the last cleo
ton, would not brook any obstruction of its
clearly expressed will and intention, and any
temporary advantage which the Democrats
might gain by the obstruction would be ulti-
mately loss to them. In my part of the
State we do not believe that anything of
this kind will take place. The Republicans
will organize the Senate. We believe they
are entitled to do so. Our people would feel
greatly surprised and outraged if any OBJ
struction was attempted"
MR.. BRADLEY'S SEAT.
"Will the Democrats try to prevent Mr..
Bradley from taking his seatp
Personally | do not believe they will at
tempt it. do not see how they can possibly
succeed, even if they attempt to do So"

ssI do not know. If 1 did I would not
hesitate to tell you, but really, have nc
idea"
LINE OF LEGISLATION.
''What do you think, General, will be the
line of legislation by the majority"
81 hope the ballot law will be perfected
that the race track laws will be repealed
and that all partisan acts, which upon the
face were passed for partisan purposes
will ba repealed trust that the next Legis-
latrlre will not pass any law which may
properly be attacked as partisan. | wish tc
add just here what I said before, that ]
greatly hope the ballot law will be perfected
I believe when this is done and the will OF
| the people can be clearly and safely express
ed through the ballot, that the election of the
Judiciary can be safely left to the people
but not until then"
'.Will General Sewell try to shape legisla
tion this winter?n
Certainly he will if he can," was the re
ply, and General Grubb left me to enter 6
car.

menting on the letter written by Count Ar
nim-Schlagentheim, in connection with the
old Bisnarck-von Arnim dispute, says it is
surprised at the discourtesy of the
language employed by the writer. 1t adds
that even if this obstacle did not exist,
Prince Bismarck could scarcely be called
upon to undertake the settlement of
Count Won Arnim's grievances against
Herr Hans Blum, growing out of
the assertions made by the latter in his
work, sGermany in the Times of Prince Bis

conflict he was compelled twenty years ago
to conduct with the father The paper adds
that Prince Bismarck is not disposed to help
the former Count Won Arnins son in his
self advertisement.

that the only thing left for Prince Bismarck
to do is to challenge Count Won Arnim to

LIQUOR DEALERS WAITING.
Want to Know the Complexion of
the Senate.


The State Liquor Dealers Association did
not meet yesterday at Paterson as was ex-
pected it would do At the last meeting of
the association at Orange, January was the
day set for the meeting, but subsequently it
was decided not to hold this meeting until
January II, because of the uncertainty of
the Senate The State Committee has a
dumber of matters to bring before the Leg
islature, and until that body is prepared for
work it was deemed best not to discuss these
matters.
Patrick McArdle, one of the delegates
from this county, had business in Paterson
aside from that of the meeting, and he went
there to attend to both. He had not received
notice that the meeting had been postponed.
He was disappointed, but at the same time
he approved of the action of the Chairman
in waiting a couple of weeks longer before
holding meeting.
Mr.. McArdle desired me to say that at the
meeting of the Hudson County Liquor
Dealers Association Wednesday, nothing of
an uncomplmentary nature was said of

WASHINGTON. Jan. 6, 1S94.-The moment
that the journal of yesterday was read and
approved, the contest of the last three days
was renewed by Mr.. Boutelle
trep, Me.J who rose and insisted
that the Hawaiian resolution hereto
fore offered by him was
question of high privilege and took prece-
dence of everything else. With this view
the Speaker did not coincide, but made
statement as to the parliamentary position
of the question. Mr.. Boutelle insisted that
his resolution was now before the
House, and had been ever since the time IL
was read. but the Speaker, rules that the
question of its consideration, which had been
raised by Mr. McMillin tdem., Tenn.) was
determined on the adjournment OF the
House that day. The same question, he
added. might be raised every day; but the
resolution was not now before the House.
1t had been reported from the Committee on
Foreign Affairs, with a recommendation
that it be laid on the table, and it was now
on the table.
Mr.. Boutelle interrupted the Speaker with
a suggestion that he reflect before making
his ruling, and that suggestion was in
dignantly repelled by the Speaker as a
reflection upon him.
Finally. after long and fruitless struggle
rected the yeas and nays to be called on the
question pending yesterday when the House
adiourned-that was the ordering OF the pre-
vious question on the report OF the Commit
tee on Rules, making conditions as to the
tariff bill.
The veto resulted as all those of yesterday
had done-in showing the absence of a
quorum 1t was announced as yeas 167,
nayt none There had been twenty-five pairs
declared. which accounted for the absence
of A members. Some little excitement was
caused by change of vote on the part
of Mr. Lane dem, Ills.) He said that he
had voted mo" and wished it changed to
"aye.n Then the question was asked by
Messrs. Reed and Burrows whether Mr..
Lanes vote had been recorded in the first
instance. The Speaker ascertained that
it had not been; but asked what difference
did that make. The gentleman from Illinois
said that be had voted "No, and now wished
to change that vote to AYE" and he bad a
right to do it.
The vote having been announced, call OF
the House was ordered and is now in pro
gress.

The exclusive announcement in THE JER-

rigan had deposed Father Fitzpatrick as
President of the Young Mems Society of the

denounced the action in unmeasured terms
A special meeting was held last night to
select president, and, curious to say, the
very members who were loudest in denounc-
ing the deposing of Father Fitzpatrick last
night were anxious to show their regard for
Father Corrigan, and to say how pleased
they would be to have their pastor at the
head of the society.
The meeting last night was well attended.
The members first considered the article in
THE NEWS. They appointed COMMITTEES
to learn who han given the story out. Such
member will be expelled. A statement was
prepared for the press. Father Corrigan
was unanimously elected president; The

Yesterday was the last day for filing petit

The opposition allege that they have

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Jan. 6, 1S94.-Captain
of Police Birmingham has deposited in a
local bank the IS, 100 taken from the green
goods men when they were captured last
week. Just what will become of the money
it is hard to tell. The captain will not sur
render it without an order from the Judge
of the City Court. "Big Walter" Haynes,
the green goods man from whom the money
was taken, has not been in the city since his
bond of 81, 500 was forfeited last week. He
dare not call for the money, fearing rearrest.
His attorney intends to present petition in
the court that the money be turned over to
him for his client, and if the motion is de-
MED an appeal win be taken to the Superior
Court. The green goods men are much
chagrined over the turn affairs have taken,
but they are powerless to disturb the money
without the Courts order. The Standard
last night said that the prosecuting attorney
of the city has for several months been pri-
vate counsel for the reputed head of the
green goods gang.
