DESERTED WILHELM THE HOSPITAL


Children in Want and Misery.
Mrs. Mary Congrave, a young woman, re-
ported to the Hoboken police his morning
that her husband, Cecil Congrave, had de-
serted her, leaving her with three small
children and without a home. Mrs. Con-
grave said she was taken to st. Mary's
Hospital on January 8, suffering from a
complication of diseases. She took her
three year-old child with her and left her
two small boys at their home, No. 210
Willow avenue, with their father.
When h left the hospital a week ago
she found That her husband had sold all
the furniture and had fed taking the
two boys with him 1t IS said that he has
gone to England. Mrs. Congraye after
wards learned that he had left the two
children at the home of his brother in
Jersey City, but as the family was too
poo to take care of them they were sent
to the Alnnshouse at Snake Hill. AS there
has been no Poormaster in the city since
the death Of Poormaster Andrew Miller
some months ago, Mrs. C~ongrave did not
know where to go for assistance. She APP
peared before Recorder McDonough this
morning and asked to be committed to
the Almshouse. Her request was granted.

While the Board of Trade in its unmean-
Ing way is trying to find objections to the
East Jersey Water contract on the fake
plan. and thus making itself ridiculous
and offensive to all well disposed people,
there is a wealth of solid reason why the
city should have no further dealings with
the East Jersey Company. The Board of
Trades course on public questions reminds
one Of what unkind persons say Of the
gentler sex. Their premises are right and
their conclusions wrong or else their prem
tses are wrong and their conclusions right.
This is the only alternative.
IN the present occasion, the Boards
conclusion is right. The city should re-
ject the proposed permanent contract. But
there is nothing right about the methods
by which the conclusion is reached. The
premises are all wrong. the processes of
reasoning are fa~llacious.
First and foremost among the reasons
for not executing the permanent contract,
is the fact that doing so is likely to fasten
upon us for an indefinite time the mon
strosity of unfair dealing known as the
temporary supply. This a~bomination,
which was favored enthusiastically by the
Board of Trade, is simply a scheme by
which several millions of dollars are to
be extracted from Jersey City for no adj
equate return whatever. tbs to cost US
$685., a75 a year. and the ratification of the
permanent contract fasters this burden
upon US for a quarter of a century. for.
rs THE News has shown, time and again,
the exorbitance of the temporary price
places a premium upon the non-fulfllment
of the permanent contract.
The latest developments in this extraor-
binary ENHANCEMENT viii be found in our
news columns today. Ii seems that the
East Jersey Company has been acting in
bad faith towards the city of Newark to
such an extent that7an endless tangle of
litigation is at hand. Formal notice was
served upensMa Waaser,. yesterday, by
the city Counsel Of NSsesw'vaaIrak, and there
is good reason to think that proceedings
viii be begun at once.
In the presence of this complication, it
would be nothing short of madness to any
further commit this city to the East Jer-
sey Company, and we do not believe Mayor
wanser viii do 1t. ssgeo zi3

When the fJournaI' is beaten by s.The

news, as happens about four times "a
week. its usual custom isto say nothing
and steal them next day. once in a
while, however, it has a fit of senile rage
and howls fake or in some similar way
makes itself a public laughing stock.
Yesterday was one of its silly days. and
1t worked itself into a rage over the
story of the careless smoker who nearly
set fire to the powder boat off the south
ern shore of this city. It made the grand
discovery that the name of the police

was Incorrectly given in s"The News
and on this slender basis it quilt up a
column of hes and impudence of match

OF course. the story told in THE News
n verified and copied by the New York
newspapers was literally correct in every
particular save the one. The Journal
could have had it, too, if it was not
asleep. There was no special enterprise
about getting it. The funny thing is that
any paper should fail to get it.

badly it is feeling the continued success
ef .The News" It's space cut down
from eight to six pages tells the tale.
Even the six it publishes are filed with
leads, not type. Its circulation has fallen
away so that it never dares speak of IT,
and the whole business community is
looking at it with suspicion. All this
would be pathetic If it were borne with
decency. We would not think Of hitting

business. We would treat it with the
consideration due to the moribund. But
