LoNDON'S WARLIKE TONE.
BIZ Cabte to the United Press.

LONDON, Oct. 25, 1s95.-The Pail Mall
Gazette prints long article commenting
upon the dispatch published in the Times
from its Hong Kong correspondent stating
that treaty was recently concluded between
Russia and China, by the terms of which
Russia obtains the right of anchorage for her
feet at Port Arthur, the right to construe
and operate railways and other advantage
of great commercial value The Gazette as
sumes that this practically means that Rus
sia has annexed China, if the conclusion of
the treaty is fact. Japan, the paper says,
will certainly refuse to leave Port Arthur
and England will oppose it to the death. The
treaty also means the presence Of Russian
warships off Vancouver and Sydney, and
England must act vigorously and imme-
diately both by means of diplomacy and by
getting her fleets ready for sea.
The Globe in an article on the same sub
iect, says;-'iNeither England, the United
States, Japan nor Germany will sanction
partition of China which would virtually
render the Pacific Ocean Franco-Russian
lake and seal the markets of China against
their commerce."
The St. James Gazette says:-"It is OBJ
vious that if Russia has squeezed China into
such an agreement we must intervene. War
with Russia, with all its risks and possibili-
ties, would be less disastrous than to allow
her without striking a blow to get such
grin on China.n

Banking House.

The Third National Bank, which was
occupied the building formerly owned
by the old Fifth Ward Savings Bank, at
Pavonia avenue and Erie streets. since
it's organization in 1887 will. within the
next six months, probably move from
their present place to the four-story
brick building known as Roche's Hall,
at Grove and Morgan streets. The Off
cials of the bank have signed con-
tract to purchase the property by the
first of November and as soon as they
do so extensive alterations will be made.
President Carscallea, in an interview
with a Jersey City News" reporter this
afternoon said
1--WE are not doing ANYTHING Just
yet in regard to moving, but
will probably get down to work after we
have purchased the new building. Where
we are at present there is no business
of any account either north or west of
us, and our object in moving is to get
nearer the business centre of the city.
This opportunity presented itself and we
grasped it. In about a month [ will be.
able to give full particulars in regard
to the changes to be made and when we
shall move. Just at present we are mere
ly discussing the question and have not
decided upon anything definite except
of course that we will positively move"

London's "Prudes" Knocked
Out by the County Council
Some Lively Talk.
.Ru Gable to the United Press.

LONDON, Oct. 25, 1895. The Chamber Of
the London County Council was crowded
this forenoon when the council took into
consideration the decision Of the Licensing
Committee to grant unrestricted license to
the Palace and Empire music halls. Heated
speeches were made by the respective par
tisans of free license and restricted Ii
cense, and the council finally, by a
vote of Sc to AZ, reversed the decision Of
the committee in regard to the Palace, and
reimposed upon that place the restrictions
which were formerly in force. The council
then proceeded to consider the case of the
Empire.
While the council were discussing the case
of the Empire, Earl Russell, a member of
the council and Radical. Condemned such
restrictions as had been placed upon. the
license of that place of amusement, chas-
acterizing themsas irritating to the persons
affected by them and productive of no good
results.
An amendment offered by Progressist
member, moving that the council refuse to
grant license for the promenade, was re-
jected by a vote of 81 to 45. The result of
the vote was received with loud cheers. The
council then formally granted an unre-
stricted license to the Empire, and the cheer
ing was renewed.

1 BRIGHT CANDIDATE
Pierce ]. Fleming the Idol Of
the Horseshoe Sketch
of His Career.

Inadvertently the pen sketch OF Mr.. Pierce
j. Fleming, Assembly candidate from the
Sixth District, was omitted last night from
the sketches of other gentlemen on the ticket
which appeared in the Jersey City News. y
But as it has been well said, .'Pierce is so
well known, that, like good Wine, he needs
no bush" There are, however, MANY peo-
pie interested in the young Assemblyman,
who is renominated for a second term, and
to them the following facts will be of inter-
est
Pierce j. Fleming, candidate for Assembly
in the Sixth District, is thirtv-one years of
age, and was born and has resided all his
lifetime in the "Horseshoe District" as it
was formerly known.
He attended Public School No. 4, from
which he graduated into High School. Upon
leaving school he was employed as clerk by
the Erie Railroad Company, and afterward
by the Wells Fargo Express Company, with
which corporation he served until the time
of his debut into political life.
At the spring election of 1898 he was
elected Alderman, and it was at that election
that the extraordinary popularity of Mr..
Fleming became apparent. Although bis
party was in a state of disruption, which led
to the defeat of Charles w. Allen as Alder
man-at-Large, Mr. Fleming received the
largest majority ever given a candidate in
the Horseshoe. His majority was l, 156
over James F. Moran, the Republican candi-
date and 1, ,404 over William Barry, the
popular standard bearer of the Barry Foot
ball Club" Under the new primary system
he was chosen as the candidate for Assembly
over the then representative, Mr.. Carroll,
one of the most popular men in Hudson
county.
Mr. Fleming is amodest, unassuming man.
He sclks little, but thinks great deal. Dur
ing his term in the Legislature he COM
manded praise from both sides for his work
in committee. Assuredly he will be returned
and not only the Democrats, but the Repub-
licans of the Horseshoe" will be well rep
resented and their interests well taken care

MAX sALINGER WEARIES HIS
AUDITORS.

The Fremont Republican Club of the
Heights held its regular weekly meeting last
night, and after the business session listened
to speeches by Assemblvman Henry NJ.
Nutzhorn, Counsellor Isaac Goldenhorn and
Max Salinger.
Both Nutzlnorn and Goldenhorn spoke
briefly. When the great Max spoke the au-
dience lay back in their chairs and prepared
for a nap. He commenced his talk at 9
O'clock and did not finish until a few minutes
after 10 o'clock While he was talking more
than half the audience left, and when he at
last sat down amid faint attempt at APP
plause. those who remained breathed sigh
of relief. There were other speakers an
nounced to address the meeting, but they
evidently thought that the audience had suf-
fered enough from listening to Max, for they
did not appear.
1t was said that Mr. Salinger would not be
invited to address the Fremont Club again
for fear he would scare large number of
the members aWay forever

WHAT RUSSIA AIMS AT.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Is, 1S95.-Whlle
nothing official can be learned in Wash
iEgton with reference to any alleged sec
ret treaty between Russia and China, it
is not doubted that some understanding
exists between the two countriess Which
will result in their mutual advantage.
European dispatches OF recent date
contained the intelligence that Russia
would guarantee the Chinese indemnity
of 30,O0O,O0O taels, which will be paid to
Japan for the latter's evacuation of the
Liao Tung Peninsula. Those who are
familiar with Russian statecraft, say
that the Cars government, which
is noted for its clever intriguing,
qualities would not so obligate itself
without a proper quid pro quo. For
this reason some Importance is attached
to dispatches which state that Russia

1t is expected that the trial will last three

MONEY TALKS!
And Lots Of It Says MeGill Will

Hayes Caught.

City Treasurer Samuel D. Dickinson, in
a good -natured way, has been making
a great deal of noise about $1,000 which
is said to be at Taylor's Hotel to be
bet on Griggs. One of his friends re-
marked yesterday that the Colonel could
not induce a Democrat to make even
.'measley bet of $200' ON the Chancellor's
election.
The Republicans are doing some monu-
mental lying. No sooner was it known
that there was a little Republican money
at the hotel than There was rush of
Democrats to get it.
Mr.. Harry Perlinutter, the Newark
avenue merchant, was among the first
callers After examining the Republican
money to make sure 1t was not counter
felt, he made the Republicans who have
subscribed TO the $1,000 fund feel sick by
taking $500 worth. Mr.. Perlmutter want
ed more, but he could not be accommo-
dated. He has $1,000 that is not work
ing" 1t says Mr.. McGill will be elected.
however
H. P. Simon. another well known mer-
chant, has shamed the noisy Republi-
cans into making a $500 bet with him.
Mr.. Simon has a little more McGill money.
Eugene Mccarthy, the Montgomery
500 to $500 on the election OF MceiIIl
Charles Ryan, a clerk employed in Stein

gomery streets, has laid down $100 on Nc
Gin. His last bet was made yesterday,
when he took $50 of Under Sheriff Er-
wins money.

son of the Newark avenue merchant, was

naturedly remarked "You must have a

Here's $40 that says Grfggs will be

s'Bucky'' flashed the money again.
This time he was near Mr.. Perlmutter.
The latter grabbed it quickly, placed
it in charge of Fireman Rooney, covered
it with twenty good McGill dollars, and
walked away as though nothing had
happened.
If the engine house had fallen, 'Bucky''
could not have been more surprised He
didn't want to bet that $40 at all. He
had only heard his friend Sam Dick
inson was betting and he tried a little
game of bluff himself.
'Bucky'' is down hearted. He won't
discuss politics with any one. He says
it IS against the rules of the Depart
