MAIL BY TROLLEY
Postmaster General Wants
Maps From Manager
David Young.

The Postmaster-G General today requested
Manager David Young of the Consolidated
Traction Company to furnish the depart
ment with a map showing the lines in the
system operated by the company. Although
the Postmaster General did not give any
reasons for the request, Mr.. Young sur
misses that the scheme of utilizing the trolley
mail matter is being considered in Washing
ton.
Mr.. Young at once prepared a detailed
map of the system and forwarded it to the
Postmaster General.
81 may say" said Mr.. Young to ''News"
reporter, s'that we have been re-
quested to give estimates as to cost
for carrying the mail, and I have
no doubt that in short time the
trolley lines will supersede to a great ex-
tent the mail wagons
Among the details of the scheme, now
under consideration in Washington, is that
of having a mail car built specially for the
trolley line. 1t will be very gaudy
vehicle resplendent in red and gold and
bearing on It's sides the legend United
States Postal Service Car for Local Transit
Only
Those who ought to know what they are
talking about further say that the schedules
of the company will be SO arranged that at
several times during the day the mail car
will run from Newark to Jersey City with
out any stop.
The Traction Company will cooperate
with the Post Office Department to effect a
rapid mail delivery.

In WILD WEST STYLE
Three Masked Men Hold Up
a Saloon and Kill One
of the Patrons.
HE DEFIED THE ROBBERS
Police Think the Desperadoes Be-
long to Buffalo Bilrs Show
Arrested on Suspicion.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S95.-Seyerai ar
rests have been made by the police OF
persons suspected of having murdered
Richard Pope in William and Thomas
Walters saloon at Brown place and
Southern Boulevard shortly before mid
night last night.
About midnight two men were playing
pinochle in the saloon and Richard
Pope was keeping the slate for them.
The barkeeper and a neighbor were the
only other persons in the place when
the side door was thrown open and three
men with handkerchiefs covering their
faces entered the place with drawn re-
volvers and began firing at the ceiling
The players sprang to their feet, but
before they could make step the leader,
who covered them with pistol in each
hand, cried out "Put up your hands"
POPES COOL NERVE.
Up went the hands of all but Pope, who
said, "You go to h. and picking up
chair he advanced toward the robbers.
The leader fired at Pope and he fell to
the floor with bullet in his breast, and
died shortly afterwards. After the shoot
ing the leader, still covering the men IN
the saloon, went behind the bar, opened
the money drawer, took $42 therefrom
and then fled. The bartender and the
other men in the saloon then ran to the
door and cried, "Help," Murder"
watch" etc.
mounted policeman answered their
cries for help, and after hearing their
story started for the Morrisania police
station at gallop where he notified
Captain Creeden of the robbery and
murder Captain Creeden with dozen
policemen started for the saloon, but
could find no trace of the murderers on
the way
BUFFALO BILLS MEMS S SUSPECTED
Buffalo Bits Wild West Snow had ar
rived from Atlanta early in the evening
on it's way to Bridgeport The police
believe that some of the hangers or WHO
followed the show on their trip to this
city may know something about the rob-
berry.
Alarms were sent out to all police sta
tions in the city giving as good des-
cription as possible of the murderers
and Acting Chief Conlon gave orders
that every avenue of escape from the
city should be placed under surveillance
The ferries down town were warned TO
prevent the men getting out of New
York in that way.
ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.
Policeman Farley ran across three men
who seemed to answer the descriptions
and he arrested them. They described
themselves as John Garrigan, a waiter,
10 years old; William Fisher, a tinsmith.
% years old, and Frederick j. Smith, a
waiter, % years old. AS they could not
be identified it was decided to take them
to court and have them discharged from
custody.
Acting Chief Conlin said this morning
that he was satisfied that the murderers
were connected with Buffalo Bills Wild
West Show. Roundsman Titus has
gone out of the city to overtake the show
which has gone toward New Haven.
Richard Pope. whom they killed, was
sc years old, and the son of late police
sergeant He. lived with his widowed
mother and brothers at No. 63S South

BEAUTIES OF REFERENDUM.
The Bridge Ballot a Rare Tangle
sSErorss M. Sc rainafs,

The Bridge Ballot a Rare Tangle--
ssFor,s or sAgainst''s
A grave doubt has arisen in the minds of
many people as to the law relative to the
Passaic Bridge vote taken on Tuesday. The
matter will undoubtedly have to be settled
by the courts.
The law under which the election was held
and under which. the bridge could be built is
Chapter CCCXII of the Laws of 1894. 1t
reads that bridge may, be built after it
'sshall have been approved by a majority of
the legal voters of the respective counties. !"
Those who favored the project were to write
on their ballots ''For the bridge, etc." and
those opposed ssAgainst the bridge"
The total vote in this county for Governor
was nearly 50,00O The number of ballots
on which the voters expressed their appro-
val or disapproval of the new bridge was
1O,642, or a little more than one-ffth of the
entire vote. Of this number S.444 were in
favor of the bridge and 2,19S against it.
Nearly all of those who voted on the ques-
ton were residents of the section directly
interested, the voters of this city and Hobo
ken paying no attention whatever.
In Harrison 1,00S votes were recorded in
favor of the bridge and So against. Kear-
ny gave s36 for and 9 against. In the
town of Union 401 voted in favor of it and
154 against it. West Hoboken reported 217
for and 6S against.
According to the law it would seem that
the project was defeated in this county, as it
is plain that a majority of the legal voters
of the county did not vote In favor of it.
Judge McGrath, counsel to the Board of
Freeholders, takes different opinion, how
ever, and says that the project is carried,
as all of the ballots that were not expressly
marked against must be counted as ''for"
the prOiect.

THE BRIDEGROOM CAME NOT.
By Gable TO the United Press.

LONDON, Nov. s. 1896. The wedding OF
j. A. Mclean, an officer of the Royal Irish
Lancers, to a daughter of Mr.. Seymour
Forbes, a Yorkshire landowner, which was
fixed for this morning in All Saints Church,
London. was unavoidably postponed through
the failure of the groom to appear at the
time appointed. and the large and fashiona-
BILE throng which had gathered to witness
the ceremony were obliged to depart in
disappointed frame of mind. The bride,
with the bridesmaids and page, waited at
the church for the groom untilt he hour fixed
for the wedding had arrived and passed, and
then departed for her home in great distress.
Diligent search failed to discover any trace
of the groom, and his valet, upon being in
terrogated professed complete ignorance OF
his masters whereabouts

CLARA osWALDr's ROMANCE
Her Father Sends for Her Marriage
Certificate. LEkeyyise a DIvorce.

Recorder McDonough of Hoboken re-
ceiyed an interesting letter this morning,
dated October 80, from Bremerhaven,
Germany, which reads as follows:-
The Honorable judge
MY daughter has come back to Ger
many. I will kindly ask you to send
me her marriage certificate, as she will
be fined here unless it is registered. Also
kindly send me divorce for her and
[ will pay what it costs, as they VIII
never live together again.
Clara Oswaldt is a delicate German
girl of about IS years. She came to
this country three years ago and secured
a position as servant in the upper sec
ton of Hoboken. One year ago she
met Carl Graete, young mon employ
ed on an ice wagon. She fell in love
with Carl About two months ago Clara
appeared before the Recorder and charg-
ed Carl with being responsible for her
delicate condition. He was arrested and
consented to marry her The ceremony
was performed by Recorder McDonough
and Carl was released. Then he dis
appeared and Clara concluded to return
to her parents in Germany. Recorder
McDonough will send the marriage GER
tificate as requested. In Europe unless
the mother can produce a certlhcate
of marriage the child is regarded as IL
legitimate and taken from her. This law
of course applies only to those who re-
turn there to remain.

Awful Find Of a Young Man in
the Ruins Of the Detroit
Explosion.

DETROIT, Nov. s, 1895.-Rain adds to
the gloom around the scene OF We'd
nesday's Larned street disaster. The
crowds have dwindled to few hundreds
of the curious and the friends and rela-
tives of the half dozen persons who are
still counted among the missing. II

almost steady downpour the men at
work on the ruins of the Davis & Com
pany establishment, No. As Larned street,
kept steadily at work and by daylight
every bit of wreckage had been cleaned
out and the basement floor was abso-
lutely clean. By this time the walls of
the Journal building had been shored
and the work began on the wreckage
of burning No. AZ. 1t was still raining
hard when the day shift came on duty,
but the work did not stop for an instant.
The shift comprised more than hum
dred men and two dozen teams and the
wreckage is fast disappearing.
To fasciltate work much of the wreck
age of No. Al is being thrown into the
cellar of No. 4S, and it will be only a
few hours now when the bodies of those
still missing will be recovered. The boil
ers also will be uncovered and the blame
for the disaster fixed beyond all question.
DIGGING FOR HIS SISTERS BODY.
Late last night a body of workers who
were picking at the ruins of No. Al un-
covered the head of a girl whose body
was pinned beneath the heavy tirnbers
lying along the journal" building. She
was pretty girl and was not disfigured
George Uhlick, who was digging in the
ruins ever since the accident occurred,
looking for his sister Anna, who was
employed in Killers, was in the group
which found the body. The boy recogniz-
ed his sister Immediately and his grief
was awful. 1t was 10 o'clock this morn
ing before the girls body could be GOT
ten from underneath the heavy beams.
AT 1O:15 the workers uncovered the leg
of man. He is buried under heavy
machinery and it will be some hours be-

WAYNE STREET OPENING.
why Henry Byrne Delays Perform
inn His Agreement

Down town property owners are COM
mencing to wonder when Contractor
Henry Byrne intends carrying out his
contract to open Wayne street. Byrne
is to pay the city $125 for the privilege
of doing the work. Such a contract is
unusual, but Byrne made it upon being
awarded the contract to niacadanize
Montgomery street, from Brunswick
street to the Cornelison avenue bridge.
Wayne streets now ends at Corneiison
avenue From the avenue to the top Of
the Hill there is a solid wall of rock. 1t
is of the kind used for maeadamizing
1t was Byrne's intention to use the rock
taken out of Wayne street. The north
side of Montgomery street has already
been macadamized Work upon the
other side canot be begun until the Mill
Greek sewer is built.
Byrne will mot touch Wayne street un-
til he can go to work on Montgomery
street Mayor Wapser is, getting i'm
patient and will probably instruct the
Street and Water Board to compel Byrne
Wayne Street, when opened. will fur
nish a new and straight driveway from
the lower section of the city to the
boulevard.

MoRMoNs GO TO CANADA.

OTTAWA, Ont, Nov. s, 1S95.-In re-
cent despatch it was stated that a party of
Mormons had just left Salt Lake City to
join colony at Deer Creek, Alberta, where
the practice of polygamy is said to be per-
missible under terms of contract made with
that territory. Deputy Minister Burgess,
speaking of this statement says the facts are
entirely misrepresented. Not only is the
practice of polygamy not permissible in
Alberta. but the Mormons were aware fram
the very beginning that polygamy was abso-
lutely illegal under criminal laws of Canada,
and time and again, through their leaders,
formally intimated they thoroughly under
stood this and intended TO abide strictly by
it, both in the latter and in spirit.

THE DANGER OF BREAD.

AS a terrible example of what we may
all expect if we continue to spoil our
digestions and compilations with soft
bread and rolls a Boston dentist tells
the following story: Within the past
wear he has had come to him for pro-
fessional treatment four Swedish girls.
The teeth in each of these young women
were really crumbling away And why?
In thir native country, where the Swed-
fsh bread is baked at intervals during
the wear and hung on poles to dry and
harden the teeth had their proper ex-
ercise. But when these girls became
subject to s'American civilization and
in homes where more time is devoted TO
catering to the taste than to finding out
the needs and requirements of the body
fhe rnasticating of food was no longer a
necessity, and the teeth finding they
were Of no more service, decided to take
themselves out Of the way.

CHIEF MURPHY EXPLAINS
Policy is Played ia Every City-To
Sfamn lit Ont is Emposslb9e.

Chief of Police Murphy was asked this
morning if he had any reply to make
to Justice Hudspeth in relation to the
alleged existence of policy shops in this
city.
81 know that policy is being played in
the city," said the Chief, "and I believe
the game is being carried on in nearly
every city in the country. To stamp it
out altogether is impracticable. So far
as this city is concerned, the game is

propensities for freshness and dictation.
He got the Evening Journal dis
gruntled. He iasultcd the workers. He
estranged the moneyed men of the party.
BY election day. he had the whole or
ganization disaffected. When the pri-
maries are held next. all factions will
combine to do him. He will be given
an uncomfortable location on the cold
outside If the Republicans have ma
jority in the next Board of Aldermen
he will not be reelected City Clerk.
..Rod" Seymour will get that job.
SAM DICKINSON.
Sam Dickinson, although he owes his
present fat office to Mayor Wanser, has
never forgiven the Mayor for not max
ing him Grand vizier after he was elect
ed The Mayor refused to allow Dick
inson to shape the city government and
dictate the appointments to office, and
Colonel Sam grew huffy. For months
the Colonel and Mayor scarcely recog-
nized each other on the street. and it was
a matter of great surprise to every one
when the Colonel attended the dinner
given by the Commissioners of Tax APP
peals in honor of Mayor Wanser. The
Colonel had learned by that time that he
could gain nothing by pouting, and SO
he wreathed his brow in smiles. He
was finally rewarded by being made
City Treasurer In the meantime he
has carefully cultivated Tom McEwan,
and there are those WHO'S he will be
with the Congressman in the struggle
for the Mayoralty nomination.
Congressman McEwan wants to be
Mayor, and since his election to Congress
he has become more impressed daily
with the belief that he only requires a
nomination to secure an election. Colonel
Dickinson is careful not to disabuse his
mind of this belief. What chance Nc
Evan would have with the people it is
too early to say, but it is certain he has
the strongest position inside the party
lines today He is the only man who is
not hit in the least by the vote of Tues
day

the office was still closed and efforts to
find Mr.. Anderson failed. Efforts are

position to know absolutely refuse to
talk upon the subject. Mr.. William A.
Macy. one of the executors named IN

of the case under any circumstances. 1t
is the general belief that Crevier had not

and that he has squandered thousands
