OUTWITTED BY A PRIEST.
Catholics at South AmbOy Capture
School Trustee Election.

SOUTH AMBOY. y. j., July 6.-Much III
feeling has been engendered here by the
school election. The election was
the first held under the new law and
a full board was elected. The trouble has
grown out OF the action of the priest in
charge of ST. Mary's Roman Catholic
Church who, il is said, ordered the women
or his parish to vote for the candidates OF
their religious faith. About the time the
polls opened the Catholic women met in
ST Marys school hall. From there they
went to the polling places in blocks OF
four. All were provided with ballots The
Protestants knew nothing OF this until the
women began TO vote in large numbers.
always four in a squad. They soon found
out what going on. For the rest OF
the time the polls remained opened there
was lively work on the part of Protestants
10 overcome the advantage obtained by the
Catholics. The wives. daughters and sweet
hearts OF the Protestants were hurried 10
the polling place as soon as possible. Many
ballot they were entitled 10. Ii was too
late when the work of the ProtestantS
commenced to avail them much. The count
showed that the Catholics had elected six
OF the nine trustees. The Protestants claim
that they will contest the election on the
ground that many OF the women who voted
were not of the required age. 1t is UNDER
order a. .. u. w. will enjoin the board from

POINT FOR NURSERYMEM.


WASHINGTON, July 26.-The division Of
vegetable pathology of the Department of
Agriculture has published an interesting
report on the effect of spraying with fungi
cides on the growth of nursery stock. The
report was prepared by b. T. Galloway,
the chief of the division. and embodies the
results of three years work in the treat
ment of nursery stock for the prevention
of fungous diseases. The work was con-
Quoted at a nursery at Mulliken, Nd, and
during the three years there has been
treated more than a million pear, plum.
cherry and apple trees Spraying, the re-
port says, is looked upon by the owners
OF the nursery as a necessity and of equal
Importance TO cultivation and fertilization
of the soil. The report summarizes as fol-
lows the more important points brought out
by the experiment:
The treatment had comparatively little eff
feet on the apples; that is the untreated
trees were from the beginning to the end
of the experiment practically as good as
the treated. The most striking results of
the work we're seen in the case OF the
pears, cherries, plumS, apples In the order
named. Bordeaux mixture in every instance
has the best results, materially increasing
the growth of pears and cherries and never
in any case injuring the foliage in the
slightest. There was no appreciable dif-
ference as regards growth between stocks
treated early and those treated late. In
other words, Withholding the application of
the fungicide ten to fifteen days in the
spring did not materially affect the result
so far as growth was concerned. The treat
ments did not seem 10 produce any marked
effect stocks far regards render
ing them more easily budded. These re-
suits may. in a measure, be accounted for,
however by the fact that the leaf blight
diseases were not so severe during the early
part of the season of 1891 usual. The
cost of treating nursery stock with Bor-
deauX mixture need not exceed % cents
per one thousand trees the first season.
The second year the cost of the work will
be % cents also, while the third year the
cost will be increased to 80 or 40 cents per
LOCO, making the total cost of treating trees
until the buds are two years old from 50
cents to 81 per 1000.
The net profit resulting from the work
is case of the pears and cherries ranged
from 81 to $40 per 1000 trees, the average
being $l3 per 1000. In conclusion the state
ment is made that the whole experiment
shows that the spraying of nursery stock
with fungicides is thoroughly practicable;
that il results in better trees in every way,
and, finally, ii includes a handsome profit

the Navy Department Alarmed.
WASHINGTON, July 26-The reason for
the rather unexpected order for the return
of the Bennington is the bad state of
health of the officers and crew. The 18TH
milan fever had appeared on board and
suddenly began TO spread in an alarming
fashion. The surgeon of the ship contract
ed the disease and it was necessary 10
employ a local physician TO attend the
sick. AT present nine men are i'll, and 1t
felt to be an unwarranted exposure of
the health and lives of the ships company
to keep the vessel longer in such an un-
healthy port as La Lbertad at this season.
1t is positively stated here that the move
ment of the vessel does not in any way
affect the status of the refugees aboard
the vessel. and that matter Will be ADJUST
ed hereafter on its merits. Unless a de-
termination is reached by the date or ar

Hull in Bad Condition.

WASHINGTON. July 26-Speaker Crisp
was at the White House to-day and his
visit with the President caused a renewal
OF the comment as to the interest of the
administration In supporting the tariff po-
sition of the House. Mr.. Crisp declined to
say anything concerning the conference or
TO even intimate whether the tariff dead
lock between the houses were subject for
discussion. Representatives Kilgore Of
Texas. and Bynum. of Indiana the latter
a member Of the ways and means COM
mittee, also saw the President to-day.
Mr. Kilgore is endeavoring to stem the
tide i'm the House which has set i'm for the
last two days toward a concession TO most
Of not all that the Senate asked. He thinks
that the House will yet win the struggle,
and so told the President. To his callers
the President expressed the same deter
mination shown i'm the letter TO Chairman
Wilson. 1t was evident to them that he
was very fixed in his view OF the justice
Of the contention he had presented. and
that there was disposition to waver
from 1t except through some mutual COM
promise as would give the House at least
q good share Of the concessions.
Representative Holman the chairman of
the House Democratic caucus, says that
the House Democrats will probably caucus
on the tariff bill when it is returned from
the next conference lie does not think
an agreement will be reached by the con-
ferees without instructions, and anticipates
that another report of a disagreement will
be returned to both houses. In that event,
he says caucus of the House Democrats
will be called TO decide on instructions TO
be given the House conferees.
To-day's proceedings in the House were
dull in the extreme, and one by one the
members left their desks. until. by $3.50
O'Clock, there were not fifty members in
the chamber The conference report on
the fortifications appropriation bill was
agreed TO. The day had been assigned to
the committee on interstate and foreign
commerce, and some twenty or thirty bills
reported from this committee were passed,
among them the following: To establish a
lighthouse at the entrance to Galveston
harbor. Texas, at a cost OF $4,000; making
Oakland, Cal, port of entry; amending
the act for the construction of a bridge
across the 81. Louis river, between Mime
sofa and Wisconsin,; to bridge the Usage
river in Missouri and the Missouri river
near De Witt. Mo-, and to authorize the
st. Louis. Avogelles & Southwestern Rail-
way Company to bridge Bayou deS GLASSES

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, July 26.-The Chi
cago train was an hour late tonight, but
when it arrived at IL o'clock Eugene Debss
father, mother, two sisters and dozen
other relatives and friends were still at
the depot to welcome him home. There
were. perhaps. fifty other persons present
TO see the welcome, but no demonstration
was made by his railroad friends. Debs
and his father kissed each other passion
ately, and then the tall president of the
A. r. L. took his mother in his arms and
held her in close embrace for a minute.
The party then walked 10 his residence,
few blocks away. Debs, his brother Theo-
dore. Mrs. Debs and Mrs. MailIoux, his
sister. composed the party that came from
Chicago. They rode in c. & T.. l. day
coach. Mrs Debs and Mrs. Mailloux went
into the companys dining car before ar
irving at Danvllle 10 get supper, but in
no part of the journey did any of the party
ride in the Pullman car which was at
tached to the train. At Danville Debs and
his brother went into the depot restaurant
to get lunch. While there a big railroader
came up to Debs and reached out his hand.
Debs took it and the ralroader held him
in tight grasp. He said:
'Debs, went out on this strike because
you ordered me TO. Now I've lost my job"
II did not order you out replied Debs.
Eyes, you did," the other retorted an
grily.
"No. 1 didn't"
You did. you - -" and with
that the railroader struck at him.
Debs lodged the blow. Theodore inter-
fered, as did others, and Eugene returned
10 the car.
The local A. r. L. held meeting to-
night, when it was intended TO consider
a proposition to declare the strike off. This
was not done. however. as it was thought
best TO wait until tomorrow to hear what
Debs has to say. There is talk of a mass
