the contracts for sweeping and cleaning

the work, but there is division of Opin-

tracts for removing the ashes and garb-

the work, is making a hard fight for the
contract, but Byrne,. who now has the
contract is so well equipped that the

ELECTRICAL RAILWAY IN TROUBLE

The report that the New Jersey Elec-
tric Railroad Company known also as
the Jersey City, Hoboken and Rutherford
Railway Company, had gone into the
hands of a receiver was the subject of
considerable talk in Hoboken this morn
ing.
Application for receiver was made to
Judge Kirkpatrick of the United States
District Court, in consequence of default
in the payment of one years interest at
five per cent. on a mortgage OF IS, 509,-
OO0 The application was presented by
William B. Gourley, of Paterson, and
Alexander & Green, of New York acting
for the Mercantile Trust Company of
New York, who hold mortgages for the
bondholders.
John L. Helms, president of the trolley
company, was appointed receiver. Neither
President Helms nor his secretary, Mr.
Scanlan, were in the companys HoboKen
Office this morning, and the employees
knew nothing about the embarrassed con-
dition of the corporation.
1t Is stated that the proceedings taken
by the bondholders will not interfere IN
any way with the management OF the
road at present The suit which the city
of Hoboken brought against the company
to recover $4,000 due for the granting Of
the trolley franchise is still pending in
the courts. Corporation Attorney Min
turn said this morning that he thought
the city would be classed as one of the
company's creditors. Rumor has 1t that
the Consolidated Traction Company is
prepared to make a bid for controlling
interest in the New Jersey Electric

KISSED HIS FAIR DEBTOR.
PeddIer FE5ii Went TO Collect Bill
From HHrs. NnT and Got Ento Trouble

From HErs. NHG and &of Into Trouble
William r. Hill, peddler, of No. 11S
Union street, was arraigned before JUS
tice Nevin in the Second Criminal Court
this morning and was held in $500 bail
for kissing Mrs. Ada Nuff, of No. jack
son avenue. He win be tried on Saturday
morning. Mr.. Nuff was in court. He is
highly ineensed over the action of Hill
and threatens to take summary Ven
geance upon him. Hill fears he will do
him bodily harm. Hill serves Mrs. Nuh
with vegetables. She runs an account
with him He called yesterday afternoon
to collect a bill of $3.50 Mrs. Nuff didn't
have the money to pay him. Hill instead
of leaving remained and chatted with
Mrs. Nuff. She told him he had better
leave but instead of doing SO he grew
more personal and complimentary in his
remarks and finally threw his arm around
her waist and impaired a kiss upon her
lips.
She resented his action and ordered him
to leave the house at once. He fingered
and they had words. Before going Hill
kissed Mrs. Nuff a second time Mrs.
Nuff was alone in the house. Her hus-
band was at his work. AS soon as she
recovered from the shock Hf1Ps act
caused her she hurried to Dr. Forman, her
landlord. He went with her to the Com
munipaw avenue police station and made
complaint against Hill. He was arrested
last night.

KILLED TWO DNCLES.
Assassin Sleeps Comfortably
and Appears Indifferent to
His Fate.

STANFORD, Conn, Dec. 16 1857
Augustine CorelIi, the italian whose
brother, Ffllepi Correlli, was stabbed to
death last night by Antonio Demarco,
nephew, and who was himself disem-
boweled by Demarco later, died at two
O'Clock this morning, and the tragedy
became a double murder with Demareo
according to the ante-morten statement
of Augustine, as the murderer.
The weapon with which the crime was
perpetrated was found near the scene this
morning. 1t proved to be a steel file,
sharpened to a point, making keen
edged blade seven inches in length. The
file had been thrown away by Demarco
after the second stabbing.
Demarco slept comfortably in his cell at
the police station, apparently oblivious to
the magnitude of the crime for which he
is held.
Coroner Dutton arrived from Bridgeport
today and is conducting an investigation.
1t is not unlikely that the preliminary
hearing, usual in such cases, will be abdn-
doned and Demarco taken before Judge
Elmer's Superior Court. now sitting in
Bridgeport, on a bench warrant.
Assistant State Attorney Carter was
made aware of the crime last night and
took from Augustine Corelli an elaborate
statement which will furnish malice
enough to warrant the State Attorney in
issuing a bench warrant.
