The Hoboken Quartette Club held their
annual carnival last night in their hail

scene, and told them that the people
had not come there to hear fighting and
war discussed. but TO have some fun,
whereupon the war conference ended.
The pilgrims cloak fell off Mr. Reinach
then. and he was transformed into the
Prince Carnival, and announced that the
carnival was opened.
Secretary Philip then read history OF
events that had occurred in the club dur
ing the past year, after which Prince
Carnival called upon various people to
make speeches.
Editor Alexander schlessinger, attired
in the garb of a Chinese soldier, was
the first to address the audience. He
told what he knew of the war between
China and Japan, and said he was a
fugitive from the Celestial army.
F. Grempier was next to speak. He
reviewed in a very funny n1anner differ
ent local events that had occurred dur
ing the past year. DR.. Juratsch, of the
New York DAILY News, tmpersonated

A LONG CONFERENCE.

The Street and Water Commissioners
held a long conference last night In
Mayor Wanser's private office in the
| City Hall ON the water question. The
Corporation Counsel and City Attorney
were present. The water specifications
are not complete as yet, and it will
| probably be another week before definite
action is taken.
Another hitch has arisen, it is said, be-
tween the Finance and Street and Water
Commissioners which is likely to delay
matters The Finance Commissioners in
sisted that in case contract is entered
into with an individual or corporation
the city shall retain exclusive control
of the plant and the supply procured.
They object to the contractor supplying
any other city or town with the supply
intended for Jersey City, claiming that
If any other course is pursued trouble
is sure to arise.
The Street and Water Commissioners
contend that if the contractor complies
with the terms of the new specifications
to have at all times a supply OF 3D.
0O0 900 gallons which may be delivered to
Jersey City daily, that it would be an
injustice and waste of pure water not
to permit the sale of the surplus to some
community afflicted as is this city With
impure water. Mayor Wanser has taken
the same stand as the Street and Water
Commissioners. He believes that If So
900 900 gallons daily are placed at the
disposal of this city, the surplus should
be utilized in some way proitably to the
company. The Mayors reason for max
ing this stand is that If the contractor
is permitted to sell the surplus water to
cities towns and townships along the
line of the water pipe, it VIII ultimately
result in the price charged this city be-
ing reduced.
President Jones, however, holds that
drop of water procurable for It's own
use He argues that although this city
does not require 50,o0o,0o0 gallons daily
at present, it will only be a rev years
amount. Such being the case he does
not believe it will be advisable to have
thousands of people outside of the city
dependant upon the supply intended on 30ni,g
difference is to be adjusted before ac-
ton is taken on the new specifications.
1t has been conceded to the Finance
Commissioners already to permit con-
tfaa'0og tiea or b BY 0ip pumpng. M The Michigan
standard of purity has been dropped and
better one inserted. Everything pos
sible has been done to bring about the
the acquisition Of a new supply g514G4 r,,c,
TIONS
1t was said about the City Hall this
afternoon upon reliable authority that
the Street and Water Commissioners at
their meeting next Friday morning would
adopt new water specifications in COM
pliance with Mayor Wanser's wishes.
