SENATOR GoRMAN EXPLAINS. 3

Gone for a Rest.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 7, 1S95.-Senator
German is quoted in Washington paper
as expressing himself as follows in regard to
the Maryland election:
These things VIII happen. | have no
complaint to make. 1 suppose that it the
Democrats had carried Baltimore and the
State our opponents would have charged US
act that way toward them. believe we
were outyoted and outvoted honestly. Under
the laws OF Maryland it is next to impos
sible to have a dishonest ballot. The Re-
publicans got out every man in their party,
and were aided by the votes OF the Demo-
Gratis who had a grievance.
"The figures show that their vote was
polled almost up to the registration, while in
Baltimore alone we were some IA, 900 OF Is, 900
short.
Il regret, Of course" continued the Sena-
tor, that Maryland, after twenty nine years
of honest. economical and safe administra-
tion under the Democrats, should have passed
into Republican hands 7 do not, however,
regret anything that have done nor the
part which | took in the fight. did all that
could do. As amatter of fact the tide was
against us.
cit is not only Maryland that has gone
Republican, but New Jersey and Kentucky,
both Democratic strongholds, have gone over
to the Republican column. while the Repub-
licans have made great gains in the States
where they had control. In Maryland the
Republicans will find that they will have
troubles of their own, and the responsible
ties which will rest upon them will be very
great.n
Senator German, it is said, will seek COM
plete rest and change Of scene from now
until Congress reassembles.

The big safe in the office of the late

for the first time since the big real es-

anxiously awaited by the friends Of the
family, as it was hoped that papers would
be found that would clear up some of
the mystery attached to Mr.. Creviers
untimely death and possibly do away
with rumors relative to alleged short
comings. For several days past and in
fact ever since Mr.. Crevier killed him
self, there have been unpleasant stories
in circulation. 1t was said that Crevier
had lost nearly $15O,OO0 in Wall street
and that the amount comprised an estate
or two of which he was the executor,
and funds of organizations which he
held in trust.
A WILL FOUND.
The safe was opened by Mr.. Frank
Anderson, Crevier's partner, in the pres
ence of Creviers relatives. The most
important document found was will

the square the Emperor saluted the SOL

then took his position upon the right
flank of the altar, when Protestant

which sermon was preached by a Cath

A New York paper yesterday published
long story in their New Jersey edition as
serting that policy playing had been re-
sumed in this city and was again in full
blast The article was read by Judge Hud-
speth, and this morning upon taking his seat
on the Bench he expressed himself as fol-
lows:-
ssThe Court learns from New York pa
per that policy gambling exists in Jersey
City, and that it is carried on with inpunity.
The position of the Court in regard TO the
evil practices is well known. The Court has
the utmost confidence in the Chief of Police
of Jersey City, but this paper gives the
names of the parties concerned in the policy
bushes, specifies the places, and asserts that
the business is carried on openly.
IF that condition of affairs exists today
it must be stopped. If this matter comes to
the attention of the Court again the Court
win. without delay, press into service the
officers of the court, instructing them to ex-
tirpate this sort of business. This is all the
Court intends to say for the present"

NO EFFECT ON THE SENATE,
Republicans Unlikely to Make ALI
aucea with poDuIfsts


ances with PopuIEsts.
WASHINGTON, Nov Z. 1S95.-The cleo
tions of Tuesday last do not affect the pre-
sent membership of the United States SEN
ate. Mr.. Brice, of Ohio, Mr.. Gleson, of
Maryland, and Mr.. Blackburn of Kentucky,
all will remain in the Senate until March 4,
1897, sc that they will participate in the two
fpli sessions of the Congress, which begins
on the first Monday of next December.
The indirect effect of the elections. it is
expected, will be to deprive the movement
for an immediate reorganization of the Sen
ate of much of its force. The Republicans
could only secure control of that body by
asking concessions from the free silver adyo-
Gates, Stewart and Jones. of Nevada, and
the Populist Peffer of Kansas.
Their leading men have been averse to
taking this step, and now that two Republi-
can Senators from Utah are assured after
July next, there is a growing disposition
to wait until the Senate can be organized by
the Republicans themselves without en-
tangling alliances. There are other sources
of supply to be drawn upon. According to
Republican calculation New York will send
a Republican to succeed David Bennett Hill
March 4, 1897. and it is regarded as within
the bounds of strong probability that at the
same time Senators Palmer. of Illinois,
West, of Missouri, and Villas, of Wisconsin,
may each be given a Republican successor.
So-there is no need to hurry Senate reor-

FORGED BALLOTS USED
The For" and Against
Bridge Ballots Not Issued
By Clerk Fisher.

There has been much speculation con-
corning the Harrison bridge vote in this
county. "The Jersey City News today
hunted up the returns in the County
Clerks office and found that this county
had voted to have the bridge built The
vote as returned to the County Clerk was
for the bridge. 1922; against the bridge,
2,1e4. Majority for the bridge, 610S There
are yet four precincts to be heard FROM
but they will not change the result Es-
sex county'S majority for the bridge was
49, 900.
ILLEGAL BALLOTS.
There is considerable dissatisfaction in
this county at the manner in which bal
lots to be voted for or against the
bridge were prepared. In Harrison and
Kearny the ballots had printed on them
the words 'for" and against the
bridge. In the rest of the county the
ballots had blank spaces to be filled
with the words 'for'' or against" by
the voter. When asked why this was
the case, Deputy County Clerk Gritten
today said that the law of 1894, page 465
be built by two counties ;tintly, to be
had at a general election, makes no
provision as to how the ballots shall be
County Clerk Fisher said Mr.. Grit
ten, consulted lawyers concerning this,
and the legal advice he received was
that he should follow the, wert.s, Ballot
Reform law. and leave the words for"
and against blank. Mr.. Fisher did so
when the official ballots were printed
The other ballots. those with for and
against" printed on them. were issued
illegally and contrary to law. as we have
been advised. The person who printed
those illegal ballots is liable to a heavy
fine and Imprisonment"
'How is it that the County Clerk of
Essex County caused the official ballots
to have for and against printed on
them, when the same law governs both
counties?"
THAT ] don't. know. I suppose he
believes his action proper one. We
don't and that is the way the matter
stands.
ARE THEY LEGAL?
"Will these ballots with for and
against be counted?
'"rhey have been counted, and the cleo
ton officers have made their returns. The
Board of CanvasserS will not go behind
these returns, and will declare the re-
suit from the face of them. If any
taxpayer is dissatisfied he may apply 20
the court for new count, and then If
the court determines that Illegal ball
lots have been cast they may be thrown
OUT

morrow and Saturday.

MR.. ABELL GETS HIS DIV0Rc--.
END of Sensational West HobokeH
Case feminine Amenities.

A decision in the sensational West
Hoboken divorce case of Paul Abel
against his wife Clara was advised today
by Counsellor Isaac S. Taylor, to whom
the case was referred. Mr.. Taylor spent
a long day listening to very sensational
kind of testimony last week, and after
able arguments by Messrs. D. W. McCrea
and George A. Ryerson, counsel respec-
lively for plaintiff and defendant, de-
cree has been advised for the husband.
The petitioner named Philip SchuneS
as Correspondent and alleged the repeated
breaking of the sixth commandment
on the part of his wife with Schenck at
several houses on Palisade avenue. She:
on the other hand. accused her husband nd
of "corduct unbecoming married man
with Mrs. Corscadden and Mrs. Sisie;
the latter lady was charged, with more
serious enc. and one which, If proyed,
would constitute a cause OF divorce. Both
of these women were in court last week
and had lots of fun in making faces
at each other and indulging in feminine
recrim in atiOnS.
