He Wrenched Out a Water Pipe and
Would Not be Liberated.
A number of visitors called at Hoboken
Police Headquarters yesterday to see George
Burns, whose queer anatomical complica-
tions were described in THE News. He
talked to them at first and repeated the
story of losing five of his ribs and other por-
tions of his structure. Towards
night he became tired and COM
menced to yell hard. Immediately, police
men were sent to transfer him to the
padded cell. He objected vigorously and
picked up a cup of water which he dashed in
Roundsman Cross face. He could not be
coaxed out. So Infatuated did Burns be-
come, that he grabbed the water pipe con
Meeting a basin n tho cell and ripped it out.
Water spurted in every direction and it was
necessary to turn the water off from the
whole station house until the pipe was
mended.
Burns houted;-"Serves you right. YOU'RE
a set of FOOLS"
The Hoboken police in all their expert
ence have never tackled a man who objected
so decidedly to obtaining freedom as did
Burns. When at seven o'clock last night
they. tried to get him from the
cell he grasped the iron bars
and swore that 81 he'd never
leave his quarters. Not until the man fell
asleep could he be carried from the cell and
when he awoke he endangered to get back.
He was sent to his home oniWes Thirteenth
street, New York, He then declared posi-
lively that he would not bother Hoboken

DEMOCRACY IN ALABAMA.
Eron Me Sfnte Gnzette.

From the State Gazette.
There is strong evidence of solidity in the
democratic ranks in the State election that
occurred in Alabama Monday. Colonei
Oates was the democratic nominee for Gov
ernor, and a strong fight was put up against
him by Reuben F. Kolb, ,d~isgruntied
democrat, who claimed that. through cor
rupt election methods, he had been
cheated out of gubernatorial honors
twice. The republicans. popuiisls
and disaffected democrats, under the
leadership of Kolb, pooled their issues
and aimed to defeat Oates. An idea of Just
how solid Democracy is in Alabama is given
Oates a majority Of 5000, which was about
the figure by which the State was carried
two years ago. 1t is a noticeable fact That
Oates gains were all in the white counties.
When Republicans, Populists and disgruntl-
ed Democrats unite to defeat Democracy
and fail as signally as they did in Alabama
Monday. the Democratic party must be very
firmly established indeed.

STATE HOUSE IMPROVEMENTS.
Commission Will Finish and
Decorate Rebuilt Portion.

Special to the Jersey CtyAcfrs.
TRENTON, Aug. 9, 1s94.-The Staten House
Commission are now considering plans look
ing to the general improvement Of State
House and a completion of the new part IN
particular. For several weeks the members
of the commission, which consists OF the
Governor, Secretary of State, State Comp
trol]er. State Treasurer, Joseph Barstow
and j, B. Woodward of B~ordentown, have
had their heads together discussing what IS
most needed to make some parts OF the
State House look better than a big tenement
house.
The improvements contemplated are to be
restricted to the rebuilt part and the
rotunda. As is well known the walls are
bare. the woodwork rough and unfinished,
and tine thing in generally bad condition;
the appearances altogether uncouth and
gives a bad impression to any one entering
the State House. and it has been deemed ad-
visable to begin at once a NUMBER OF I'M
proyements and finishing touches. just to
what extent the commission will go will not
be known until next Tuesday, when the
State House Commission will meet and dis
cuss bids for the decoration and receive the
report of the subcommittee who have been
going over the building.
The Governor is said to be heartily in
FAVOR OIL Tie pTOpoSeu mp oHOlhchoo; Cchos
ing that the State House has been III Its
present shabby ,and incomplete appearance
long enough. 1t is decided that the walls
are to be kept decorated, not only in the
corridor and the rotunda, but in all OF the
rooms, nomely, those occupied by the State
Treasurer. State Comptroller, Secretary of
State. Adiutant General, Clerk of Chancery
and State Geologist, as well as the library on
the top floor. A number of decorators from
New York. Philadelphia and Newark have
been invited to inspect these apartments, and
they are to furnish by next Tuesdays meet
ing. if possible, designs, specifications and
prices. Particular attention is to be given
to the rotunda, which is now very plain and
unsightly, and it is quite likely that it will
be improved by the addition of a gallery
leading from the library to the offices on the
third story back. 1t will be a gallery similar
to that which encirclcs the rotunda on the
second landing. The lights in the dome are
to be changed and more than likely
the exterior of the dome will either be cop
pered OF gilded. A new tile floor will be
laid and the coat-of-arms will be placed IN
the centre of the fancy thing in the entrance
vestibule.
These improvements are to be MADE az
once. as the commission are authorized by
law to complete this part of the State House
as they see fit, and. in consequence they
haye carte blanche to do as their widom
and sagacity may suggest. 1t IS more than
probable that all the work will be arranged
SO as to be completed in time for the meeting
of the next Legislature.

balls drug store at No. LOAF Summit avenue.
1t was caused by a spontaneous combustion
among some chemicals stored there. The

TRENToN, Aug. 9, 1S94.-There is still q
chance for the murderer, Koccis. Governor
Werts yesterday dsdidedtto call the Court of
Pafdons together Altar early date to consider
the argument of his counsel, Captain Wood
bury D. Holt and Samuel G.. Mar. A
petition has BEEN filed asking that his
sentence be commuted to Imprisonment
for life. The date of the meeting has
not been fixed, assthe Chancellor had to
be consulted. There is no need of any haste
because the execution will not take place un-
til September u. The Austrian Minister in
NeWYork has recently taken an interest in
the Case, and it led to some correspondence
which had the effect of having the Governor
take some interest in the matter. 1t is
claimed that Koccis was entitled to a new
trial, and has already suffered enough for
his offense. He is in a truly p~enitent spirit.
ana the ends of justice would be attained by
having him serve a life sentence.
