Heights Property Owners Appeal to
the NIaYOr and 6. and w. Board.

the Mayor and s. and w. Board.
A delegation of twenty properly owners
from the northern end of the city waited
upon Mayor Wanser this morning
to complain against the proposed
draining of a portion of West
Hoboken into the Palisade avenue and New
York avenue sewers in this city. Mr..
Christian Helms acted as spokesman for the
demonstrators. He set forth the objections
exclusively told in THE JERSEY Cry NEWS
last evening.
The Mayor promised to do all in his power
for the gentlemen n referred them to the
Street and Water Board. The Mayor com
municated with the board and requested
that the gentlemen be heard. The board at
noon received the gentlemen and listened to
their complaint.
Commissions Voc made the statement
that the proposed connection would relieve
the present sewers. The sewers now drain
about 40 acres OF West Hoboken land, and
Mr.. Voc says that the proposed new connec-
ton viii relieve the sewers of the water
from 1888 acres. The gentlemen became ex-
cited and accused the Commissioners of neg
ligence, declaring the big Ravlne Road sewer
was broken and had not been repaired, and
was entirely too small to meet the demands.
The resolution granting permission to
the West Hoboken people to connect with
north end sewers, has been signed by Mayor
Wanser. The matter was referred to a com
mittee of citizens, Engineers Moylan and
Ruggles, Mayor Wanser, and the entire
Board of Street and Water Commits
sioners. The gentlemen will inspect
the cause of the difficulty next Friday at
eleven o'clock. The committees will meet

FALSE RUMoR ABOUT DR.. FABRIs
Not to BE Placed in Charge of the
Hoboken italian church.

Hoboken italian Church.
IT was currently reported in Catholic cir
cles of Hoboken the past few days that DR..
Fabris would be transferred from the Church
of Our Lady OF. Grace to take charge of the
italian Catholic Church on Third street.
This created no small surprise, as Father
Fabris is a secular priest. and Father Ma
zetti of the Italian a religious, and his
church being in charge of the order to which
he is attached. Father Mazetti is of the
Order of Minor Conventuals. He is APP
pointed by the Provincial, Father Francis
Neubauer, whose residence is at SYRIA
cuse. Fabris is, Of course, n
der the direction of Bishop Wigger.
Father Joseph of st. Joseph's Church, Ho-
boken, isa Franciscan Father, the same as
Father Mazetti, and is excellent authority in
the matter. He said last night that it
would be impossible for a secular priest to
take charge of q religious church The
ritual Of the Catholic Church, he said, was
against it, and it could never be.
Inquiry at the italian Church
showed the rumor without foundation.
Father Peter Jachetti is in charge of the
church in the temporary absense of Father
Mazetti, who has gone to Europe on a
pleasure trip. Father Jachetti denied that
Father Fabris had or would come to the
church to assume charge. He said, as did
Father Joseph, that it would NOT be in con
formity with the government OF the Catho-
lie Church.
