DUSENBERRY'S REJECTION POPULAR.
NEwARK's ALDERMEN DID RIGHT IN REFUSING
To CONFIRM HIM

NEwARK's ALDERMEN DID RIGHT IN REFUSING
To CONFIRM HIM.
Newark politicians are su discussing with
great energy the action Of the Common Council on
Friday night in rejecting the nomination OF ex-
Alderman Duserberry for Fire Commissioner and
that OF DR. David L. Wallace for Health Commits
sIoner.
Dusenberry is not getting the sympathy that
some OF his friends expected They are especially
chagrined because OF the outspoken criticism OF
Dusenberry by william stalnsby president OF the
Board OF Works
AT frst my sympathy was with Mr. Dusen-
berry" Mr. Stansby said. But the confession
made by him In a published statement puts won
derfully different construction on the matter and
entirely justifes the position taken by the Common
Council Mr.. Dusenberry acknowledged to Presi-
lent Bragaw that ne voted for Mr.. Seymour Tor
Mayor and the Republican Aldermen acted on his
nomination with full knowledge of this tact' MT
Dusenberry said that the reason he voted Tor MT
Seymour for Mayor was that Mr.. Seymour. while
State Prison Inspector, had given him INIT Duseh>
berry, certain signed orders for goods. which MT
Dusenberry said put him under personal obligation
to Mr.. Seymour.
"rt was not Mr.. Dusenberrys indignation at
Mayor Lebkuecher's remark that other qualhca-
tons than being n veteran would be necessary 10
secure office that induced Mr. Dusenberry's hos
tIlity to Mayor Lebkuecher II that Is all Mayor
Grand Army men. But Mr.. Dusenberry used his
Influence with Grand Army men. on the strength
OF Mayor Lebkuecher's alleged hostility TO them,
and induced them to vote against Mayor Len
kuecher. Now he says he voted for Mr.. seymour e,
because he was under personal Obligation to HIM
He traded the Grand Army vote FOR the iurIher-
ance OF his own personal business enterprises;
Where does Mr.. Dusenberry's argument lead 10, II
carried TO its logical conclusions? What Influence
would control his actions If. as Fire Commits
sloner ne should apply the same rule In making
appointments? According to his theory, the man nan
who BUYS goods OF another man OF opposite po-
tical faith is relieved Of all obsatlons to his
PARTY Such policy leads only to corruption ana
Memorabilia tion-.t means the ruin OF any political
party The Republican Aldermen are not hostile
10 the g. A. r. In no way can their action on Mr..
Dusenberrys nomination be construed In that way
His case stands on Its own merits, and the re
publican Aldermen did Just right. In view OF the
facts presented ,o,.. ,, ,r,,h
IN" democrats to confirm Controller James f.
Connolly Senator Smiths principal lieutenant who
IL now a consul In Japan
The reason given for not confirming Dr. wallace
uas that he had voted for Seymour and 'crowed
over Lebkuechers defeat" Dr. Wallace denies
,h,s He has always been on exceedingly friendly
terms with the Democratic leaders.

BRADSTREETS' REPORT.


New York, Aug. 1.-Bradstreets' says:
Political uncertainty continues an unfa-
vorable factor in trade and industrial
and mercantile lines are unusually dull.
Mercantile credits are closely scanned
and in many instances shortened. Mer-
chants In northern Louisiana and SOUTH
ern Arkansas have cancelled orders for
fail delivery in some cases, owing to the
eject on trade of the drought Of trade
there. The industrial situation is less ia
vorable. Among manufacturers of iron
and steel 1t is regarded as serious in some
lines, owing to the surplus and falling OF
OF demand. The reduction of pig iron is
further. curtailed, yet stocks increase.
The outlook Is for further decline in
iron and steel prices. Chicago offers
concessions on pig to bring bids for round
lots. Curtailments Of products in cot
ton fabrics continue, yet fall purchases
In prints are of small volume. Demand
for boots and shoes is also smaller.
Exports of wheat flour included as

States for this week amount to 2.484. 600
bushels, as compared with 3,074,00O BUSH

The increase, as contrasted with a cor

age of 10 each day during the week, as
compared with the last week Of July, 1894,
this weeks increase is "A. There have
been almost twice as many business fail
ures this week as in the corresponding
week of 1892. There are 81 business fais-
ures reported from the Canadian domin-

HIST state convention to nominate a candi-
date for governor and name IL electors
met at IL o'clock yesterday with small
attendance. though the chief party leaders
were on hand. j. H. Mcdowell was elect
ed temporary chairman. J. H. (Cyclone)

ton, was nominated for governor. though

posals for fusion in presidential elections
