the resolution adopted, and the Equal
Taxation measure came before the House.
Then came repetition of the Republican
tactics. Every known method of delay
was resorted to, and it was only at the

up on final passage. The last days fight

IT'S A CINCH.
Robert Davis Speaks Of Demo-
cratic Prospects and
Pledges in This
Campaign.

'"This is not campaign, it is 'cinch.' "
was the rather inelegant but comprehen-
sive manner in which a prominent Demo-
cratic politician expressed to a News"
reporter this morning his belief that this
is a Democratic year, and that victory is
certain for that party's candidates. While
the views of the gentleman quoted are
held by the majority of Democrats and
not a few Republicans, the candidates are
by no means resting on these assurances,
but are working energetically to make
assurance double sure" Mass meetings
are being held nightly, and the candidates
are kept busy, speaking in all parts of
the county. Everywhere they go they
find dissatisfaction at Republican mis-
management in municipal affairs and de-
sire for clean and effective Democratic
administration. While victory seems as
sured to the Democrats the battle is by
no means won, and the forces of the
Democracy are on the alert. The Re
publicans declare as emphatically as the
Democrats that they will elect a full As
sembly ticket and two coroners at the
coming election. On the eve of the elec-
ton it is interesting to note what the
leaders of the two parties have to say of
leader of the Democratic party when in
teryiewed said:-
Everything looks bright and rosy for
us, and from present indications it is
probable that we will win by 5000 ma
jority. Everywhere we find the utmost
harmony among the Democrats, while
the Republicans are fighting among them
selves. The people will elect the full
Democratic ticket, as they are tired of the
broken pledges of the Republican party
for equal taxation and other reforms.
1--WE Democrats renew our old pledge,
which the Republicans said we could not
keep, to work for equal taxation for the
people, and not for the railroads. The
eleven Assembly candidates are pledged
to work for County Road Commission
of five members to be elected by the peo-
pie at large throughout the county. We
are also going to make fight for the
water front in Jersey City and Hoboken,
which has been stolen without authority.
We claim that the city is entitled to the
end of every street from the bulkhead
out, and that no corporation should con-
troll it. We are in favor of a Board of
Freeholders, to consist Of less members
than the present Board, and advocate Civ
ing the members fair salary so that
they can properly attend to the affairs of
the county The way it is now men
cannot spare the time from their own
business to attend to the duties of the.
office of Freeholder.''

ANOTHER ERIE HORROR
Little Mary Hackett's Life
Crushed Out at the Erie
Street Crossing.
MANGLED BY RUSHING TRAIN
Confused by Screaming Engines
and Roaring Cars the Child
Ran to Her Death.

Another little hfe was crushed out on
grade crossing Of the Erie Railroad last
night. This time the victim is Mary
Hackett, a bright twelve-year-old child.
who lived with her parents at No. s77
Jersey avenue.
The child's home Is north of the rail-
road crossing. Shortly after supper last
night she was sent on an errand to
Pavonia avenue. 1t was eight o'clock
when she arrived at the Erie street cross
ing. The gates were down and passenger
trains were rushing by in both directions,
while freight trains were being drilled
about. The gates were down for some
minutes, and dozen or more people had
collected on either side of the crossing.
waiting patiently. for the gates to be
raised. Finally, the gates were raised
and the waiting pedestrians were urged
to hurry across by the fiagman.
Mary Hackett was about the last one
to start across, having been jostled out
of the way by older persons. The child
had reached the centre of the crossing
when the fagmen began to lower the
gates. At the same time an eastbound
passenger train came in sight. The shouts
of the men. the ringing of bells and
whistling of enginas confused the child.
For moment she hesitated and then
darted across the main track
Although the engineer of the train ap-
piled the air-brakes, he was unable to
check the speed OF his train sufficiently
to prevent striking the child. The cow
catcher struck and hurled her some if
teen feet She was unconscious when
picked UP. and blood was oozing from
wounds in her head and face Her clothes
were almost torn from her body and her
legs and arms were crushed in a shocking
manner.
An ambulance was summoned and the
child was removed in all haste to st.
Francis Hospital She died within ten
minutes after reaching the hospital, not
recovering consciousness.
The child's skull was fractured and
nearly every bone in her body was broken.
Her parents were notified of her death.
Her mother became hysterical and Is to-
day in critical condition. Her father
could scarcely be restrained from attack
ing the hagmen at the crossing where his
child met her death.

GREEEDVILLB RATlFIEs.
Enthusiastic Democratic Meet
ing at the New York Bay
House Candidates
Speak.

If there had been a doubt@in the mind
of any Democratic voter of Greenville as
to whether that section of the city, which
usually goes Republican, will go Demo-
cratic this election that doubt would have
been dispelled had he attended the ratifi-
cation meeting of the Claremont Demo-
cratic Club last evening in the New York
Bay House, on Ocean and Wilkinson ave-
nues, Greenville. After eight O'Clock it
was impossible to get a seat in the hail.
which under ordinary circumstances holds
about two hundred, but chairs and camp
stools were provided for about one hun
dred more along the aisles. Even at that
a crowd of about seventy-five were forced
to stand up in the rear of the hail and
in the doOrWays. A more enthusiastic
Democratic meeting has never been held
in that section of the city, and the mere
mention of the candidates names brought
forth tremendous cheering, which was
kept up for over a minute.
When the meeting opened about half
past eight, there were on the platform -
Alexander Young, Horace Allen. James
Murphy, John MarneH and Thomas Fall
Ion. President Joseph Murray of the
Claremont Democratic Club opened the
meeting by appointing Benjamin Vree-
land chairman. Alexander Young was

ARRESTED FOR BIGAMY.
W---a Sweeney Leaves His Young
Wife for FIOssy Brooks, Actress.

William Sweeney, alias Redden, "a years
old of Middetown, Staten Island, was
arrested, last night, at No. 2O3 Bloom
field street, Hoboken, on a charge of
bigamy The complainant was his young
wife, Lizzie. and if the story told by her
is true, it is likely that her husband will
be severely dealt with by the courts.
The couple were married in Middletown
four years ago and have two children.
Six months ago, Sweeney, it is alleged,
held up a man on the outskirts of the
town and robbed him. He then disap-
peared, leaving his wife and family with
out any means of support.
Mrs. Sweeney began a search for her
husband but was unable to learn his
whereabouts until week ago, when she
was informed that he was employed as a
waiter In Hoboken concert hall. She
went to Hoboken and was surprised to
find that he had married Flossy Brooks,
a variety performer employed at the
Hudson Concert Hall, at Newark and
Bloomfield streets. They were living to-
gether in apartments at No. 203 Bloom
field street.
Mrs Sweeney went back to Middletown
and swore out a warrant before Justice
of the Peace Michael Dwyer, charging
her unfaithful husband with bigamy. On
this evidence the Hoboken police locked
Sweeney up at Police Headquarters. A
hearing in the case will take place before
Recorder McDonough this afternoon.

TRIED TO DIE FOR LOVE.
Louisa KiIIian Takes Carbolic Acid
Recausa an Actor Deserted Her.

The story of the attempted suicide of a
pretty young lady because OF the lost love
of a German actor has just leaked out.
Although it is denied by the young lady's
relatives, who claim that she took car
bolic acid by mistake for toothache drops.
it is admitted by the would-be suicide.
who. has threatened to repeat the attempt
on her life.
Louisa Killian Is a very pretty brunette.
She IS about nineteen years of age and
married sister, Mrs A. Steiger, at No. 372
Central avenue She has but recently re-
turned from Christ Hospital, where she
had been undergoing treatment for some
weeks. On Sunday she seemed unusually
Respondent, but as she had not been in
her usual spirits for some time no at
room about ten O'Clock and shortly after
wards Mrs. Steger was startled at hear
Ing groans She ran to her sisters room,
while on q table at hsf side was a small
vial, nearly empty. labelled .carbolic
asid shs nf vas Sosp wrthng In all the agony
told only too plainly the story of her at
tempt TO end her existence.
DR.. Oestmann, of Summit avenue and
Griffith street, was hastily summoned and
by heroic treatment he succeeded in saw
ing the young lady's life.
Miss K;liian's relatives said that she
for toothache drops. This was subse-
quentiy denied by the young lady to some
of her intimates. She said that she be-
heved she would be abused by them for
denying their story and telling the truth
but If She was she had determined to vet
end her existence. She cared nothing for
life anyway, she said, because Carl Nor
hem had deserted her.
Morhen was an actor in the German
theatre company which performed every
w dnesday of last season in Prasser's S
Theatre on Central avenue 1t was with
a member of this same company that
Mrs. Rossbach, the wife of the Central
avenue photographer, eloped about six
months ago.
1T was noticed that after meeting Nor
hem. Miss Kfllian made point of being
present at every performance in which he
appeared Soon she was frequently seen
in the actors company and the rumor
soon spread that they were engaged.
II Her friends say that in August last
iMorhem left his sweetheart without even
bidding her good-by and She has neither
seen nor heard of him since. She became
very morose and avoided the compa nion-
shin of her former friends. Shortly after
wards she was taken i'll and went to
Christ Hospital When she recovered she
again returned to her sisters home, but
seemed inconsolable over the loss of her
actor lover. Every reference TO him
elicited tears and his name was no longer
mentioned in the household Apparently
the ssrnlttea girl could not forget him and
the attempt at self-destruction was the
result.
Mrs Stetger when seen this morning
by 4 reporter said:-.I will have nothing
to saw about the matter to reporters
