very tittingly close with the reference to
Senator Mahoney, who, while stopping

BR0CKVAY ON TRIAL.
The Arch -Counterfeiter and

Before Judge Green.
Special to the Jerseu Citst Ncars.

TRENTON. Feb IA. 1S96.-Thes trial of
William e. Brockway M " Wagner
and Abbie L. Smith for making and is
suing counterfeit money was began this
morning before Justice Edward T. Green.
in the United States Court in this city.
Brockway's counsel is ex-Judge William
T. Hoffman, of Freehold. and william H.
Guild. of Newark. The other defendants
are represented by Hiram c. Hance, of
Campbell. Ford & Hance The prosecu-
tion is in charge of Special Assistant
District Attorney A. ]. Rose. of New
York, assisted by United States District
Attorney J. Kearney Rice. whose nomina-
ton was confirmed yesterday.
No witnesses were examined this morn
ing, and after drawing a jury and the
opening address of the government, the
trial was adjourned until next Monday
morning.
In outlining the evidence for the prose-
cution Mr.. Rose said that Brockway had
been indicted on ten counts and that his
crime consisted of printing and having in
his possession counterfeit gold certificates.
the execution of which was superb He
told the jury of the capture of the press,
plates and $500 counterfeit notes of the
house of Abbie G. Smith. at No. 5L2 Ann
street. West Hoboken, N. j.. and of her
Acknowledgements that she had made
silk-lined paper under instructions from
Colonel Spencer. the printer, whom she
afterwards identified as Brockway.
The paper made by her is in close imi-
tation Of that used by the Government
and was produced by pasting two
sheets of onion leaf paper together after
silk threads had been placed between
them. Attorney Rose said he would
prove to the satisfaction of the jury
that Brockway had prepared to flood
the country with counterfeit notes of a
large denomination. A special feature
of the Governments evidence will be an
apron found in the printing room in
Mrs. Smiths house in Hopoken. 1t is
claimed that it was the property of
Brochway, because the piece of oil cloth
from which it was cut was found later
in Brockway's room at No. ga Avenue d,
in New York.

and genuine $500 certificate found in

INsTALMENT PLAN SUIT.
1t Has Been Dragging Through the
Courts q Year-Ab bout 5000. Involved

The very much litigated case, en-
titled Buckhout VS.. the Wheeler and
Wilson Sewing Machine Company was on
trial again yesterday in the Common
Pleas Court on appeal. Two or three
years ago Mrs. Alice Buckhout, who then
lived in Hudson street, Hoboken, bought
sewing machine from an agent named
Benner, who had the Hoboken district.
Payments were to be made on the i'm
stalment plan. Mrs. Buckhout defaulted
in her payments, because as she says,
her husband became i'll with consump-
ton.
On February IA, last year, Brenser, a
man named Wilson and Constable Dillon
went to the house for the purpose of
getting a payment or taking possession
of the machine. When they stated the
object of their visit, Mrs. Buckhout
said she was unable to make a paymenl
of the machine. Mrs. Buckhout grabbed
it on the other side and a tug-of-war
ensued. In about minute Mrs. Buck
Her head struck on the door jamb and
she was seized with an epileptic tit. She
is subject to such fits. ~,
Dillon and Wilson went away DUE
Brenner remained and. according to the
testimony of witnesses, gave all the
assistance he could to restore Mrs: Buck
occurrence and and said that if he had had
anything to do with the matter it would
not have happened. That day or the
day after Mrs, Buckhout consulted Judge
Paxton and the result was that She
brought suit against the Machine Com,
pany for $500 damages. She recovered
judgment. The company appealed and
Instituted replevin proceedings for the
recovery of the machine and recovered
it.
When the appeal was tried the plain
tiff won again, but the verdict was set
the third time. Mr. Weller appears for
Mrs. Buckhout and Mr.. Bissell for the
defence. This morning Mr.. Bissell asked
for non-suit on several rounds, the
chief one being that nothing had been
injected into the case to show the de-
fendants's responsibility. The plaintiff
transacted all her business with Brenner
and had no direct dealings with the
company. The Court denied the notion
The case was on at recess.

it is apparent that the true boundary
Line between Great Britain and Venezuela

widening of the British boundary dur

Of the controversy Lord Salisbury's re-
fusal TO avail himself of our friendly
offices, and to submit the question to
impartial, arbitration, leads to the con.
elusion that he has not sufficient faith
in the justice Of his claim. This he-does
not assert or admit; he resorts to a
line of argument which is not only un-
diplomatic, but untenable, and converts
the controversy from one affecting the
boundary of comparatively insignif-
cant British colony to an attack upon our
ible contention on the part of the British
Prime Minister, and not the Presidents
Message, which has the dangerous ten
dency to change the issue from one of
fact and diplomacy to one affecting the
cardinal principle of out national policy

Jersey City and Newark
Companies Have Conso1-
idated Their In
tereStS.
I'LL CONTROL THE ENTIRE BUSINESS
No More Cutting Down Prices in
Bidding for Public
Contracts.

The rumor that the Jersey City and
Newark Electric Light Companies had
consolidated, printed exclusively in last
nights News" is true, although tho
representatives of these concerns will
neither affirm nor deny the report.
But THE News is in possession Of
information which enables it to safely
say that the electric companies have
united to form trust and that the big
syndicate now controls the electric Tight
ing of the northern part of the State.
Yes, it is true" said a Newark busi-
ness man largely interested in the new
concern to a News" representative this
morning, that the companies of our city
and Jersey City and other places have
consolidated. We did this for our inter-
est. and I think for the benefit of tho
public generally"
For long time the rival concerns oz
the Peoples Company of Newark, Jer-
sey City and Hudson City Companies
have figuratively been cutting each 9TH
er's throats in their endeavors to cap
ture the contracts of this and other
places. Indeed. the warfare was carried
on SO persistently that there was abb
solutely no profit whatever for the com-l
pany in undertaking a contract of any
magnitude. This sort of amusement be-.
came not only monotonous but expen-
sive and halt was called.
Two or three of the long-headed men
in the electric light business Of this
city and Newark got together with the
result that the three big companies
amalgamated and hereafter they viii
run the electric lighting business of the
State at their own sweet will and change
State at their own sweet will and charge
