SI<i-u-Mah Easily Defeated,

The University base ball season did not
open very auspiciously yesterday afternoon
for they were beaten by the East Side High
school team, of Minneapolis, by a score of
to 4. A big crowd had turned out to see
the game. Many were the comments on the
probable outcome. If any doubted that
the would be defeated their fears were
dispeled at the end of the first inning, when
the score stood 8 to Q. The weakness of
the 'versity team was very plain; they had
a fairly good in and out field but no pitcher

called for trial in the General Sessions
Court yesterday afternoon for petty lar
ceny. The boys live in Bayonne and are
waits of the street. Their parents are in
the County jail and the boys have nobody
to look after them.
The specific charge was stealing coal
from the New Jersey Central Railroad.
When they were called for trial Michael
pleaded guilty and said that Johnnie
wasn't with him on that particular occa-
sion. Judge Hudspeth questioned the
boys very closely. Michael said that the
last time he and Johnnie were arrested
Johnnie pleaded guilty and said that he
(Michae) wasn't with him.
Johnnie was then called to the stand.
He is a little tow-headed urchin and
bright and sharp. as all street gamins are.
He said that his father and mother sent
him and his brother out to steal coal.
Where are your father and mother?"
asked Judge Hudspeth.

EXPERT? Yes, But NH0?.
1t Will Be Viele or Croes or
Herring-or Perhaps
Someone Else.

mayor HOBS today called conference
OF the Street and Water Board and FL
nance Commissioners to discuss the water
problem with him tomorrow after
noon In his private Office It is
anticipated that all the members of
the two Boards will be on hand as they
are as anxious as the Mayor to get the
matter under way
Yesterday afternoon the Mayor and
Street and Water Commissioners Nolan
Helntze and .Boltwood went to New York
and had talk with Engineer Croes. Viele
Waro ana Herring. What propositions
or suggestions were made, the officers
decline to say. The engineers were, how
ever, asked how much they would ask to
prepare plans and specifications under
which the city might acquire a new SUM-
ply OF water. None 1.-the engineers was
cheap. All announced that they we're
familiar with New Jersey water supply
sources and claimed to have a compre-
hensive knowledge of the topography of
the country, where it is possible to gather
and store water. All the engineers
declared that they favored gravity sup
ply for the city. insisting that it would be
exceedingly unwise to acquire a supply of
any other kind. Pumping they said is out
of date.
soafar as arriving at any conclusion con-
cerning an engineer nothing was accom-
pushed. Itissa pretty well established fact
that Engineer Ward is no longer in the
race since the Mayor and others had an
interview with him yesterday The fight
is practically between Messrs, Croes Viele
and Herring and from what can be
learned Engineer Herring stands an ex-;
cellent chance of being engaged.
The Finance Commissioners were not
represented on yesterdays trip, but 1t was
not due to any split. Commissioners
Simpson, Keliers, Bailey and Midlige were
unable to go to New York and President
Brautigam was too busy to get away.
The Finance Commissioners know Mr..
Herring and it was reported today that
should the Street and Water Commission
ers name him as the engineer, the
Finance Commissioners will concur 1t Is
also said that the Finance Commissioners
may ask for an engineer to guide them.
No expense is to be spared to Have the
preliminary work done in manner which
will be entirely satisfactory to everyone
even the Board of Trade.
All the engineers waited on yesterday
were advised that should they be retained
they would be expected to prepare plans
under which bids for all kinds of supplies
might be presented. 1t will doubtless be
decided at tomorrow's conference which
of the engineers SO far seen will be en-
gagged.

AN UNEXPECTED SHOCK.


-
A very peculiar accident happened last
evening about nine o'clock on a Bay
onne trolley car bound for the ferry. The
car stopped at Union street to let a pas
senger off who had been standing on the
rear platform, and young fellow who
was standing on the step where the man
got off, seeing there was room on the
platform, stepped up. In doing SO he put
one hand on the power box and the other
on the brass rail which supports the roof
of the car. Just then the conductor gave
the motorman the bell to go ahead The
motorman pulled the lever around and
the car was bowling along at a pretty
speed when the young fellow who was
holding on to the power box and the
brass rail commenced to yell at the TOP
of his voice, at the same time jumping
up and down on the platform like mad
man. Finally one Of the men asked him
what was the matter and after a lot
more twisting and jumping around he
suffered out that electricity was going
through his body. He was told to take
his f;sf hands no saa off bat after making another
the motorman shut Off the power and
stopped the car to allow another pas
senger to get on at Bramhau avenue and
the young fellows hands Relaxed their
hold and fell to his sides. He. was not
hurt otherwise than getting a very severe
The conductor said that that was the
that way. Meanwhile the fellow of that
had got the shock said sTIe'd be darned
II ne wanted another scare OF that kind !"
