For more than a year the police of this

Kushburg in Newark. They Induced him
to walk across the H~ackensack meadows

~drugged. He was led across the meadows
to a lonely spot north of the Pennsylvania

$40 and a gold watch and chain. To
cover their crime the mel dragged
K%ushburg's body across a long set Of
freight tracks and deposited it on the
main track of the passenger line. A half
by a track walker who pulled it off the
tracks just as a train dashed by.
Kushburg was brought to his city and

was tried in the Special Sessions Court
today for assault and battery on William
Baker. a boy, and atrocious assault and
battery on William Wolff, a young man.
Before the case was called Drewes' law
yer applied to Judge Fudspeth for per-
mission to withdraw the application TOR
trial in the Special Sessions. He said that
Drewes signed it, thinking that it would
Enable him to get a speedy trial, and he
did not know the full import of the appli-
cation.
Prosecutor Winfield said that Drewes
was asked clearly and distinctly when he
was arraigned If he waived Indictment
and trial by jury and asked to be tried
by the Court. Judge Hudspeth denied
the application, and the lawyer, Alex.
Young, made quite a fuss about it, finally
Withdrawing from the case.
The trial developed the fact that the de-
fendant was clearly guilty on his own
showing. Some boys '.sissed" at aim ana

PAYING FOB OLD LIGHT.
Finance Board Adjus,s Claims for
Gas Murned Yeass Ago.

The Finance Commissioners, at a meet
ing last night. provided for the payment
of old claims -aggregating $4o.576.22 due
the United Gas Improvement Co.. New
York and New Jersey Globe Gaslight Co.

Electric Light Companies.
In 1856, 1855, 1889. 1891, 1892, 1888. 1894 and
1855, the companies mentioned furnished
the city light but never received any
pay. R. w. Elliott, ANA of the
companies. not caring to bring suit. waited
until the city got in a position to pay the
claims. During the last year he has
been making a hard fight for the money.
AS a compromise he accepted sSS, 00o, and
the Finance Commissioners will raise
that sum on temporary loan bonds bear
ing A per cent. interest. They will run 10
years. and $500 will be placed IN the tax
levy every year until the bond are re-
tired.
Some time ago the Sisters of Charity Of
st. Elizabeth asked to have the taxes on
certain property owned by them at Erie
street and Pavonia venue cancelled. Cor
poration Counsel Blair recommend the
cancellation. Subsequently, he learned
that the property in question was not
being used for charitable purposes, but
was being rented. He advised the Board
to reconsider their action and allow the
taxes to stand. Last night City Attorney
Douglass rendered a decision On the
case. and he. too, advised that the taxes
must stand for the reason that the
property to be relieved from taxation
is not used for any purpose connected
with the institution.
The official bond of Constable ohn
Dugan was approved. Clerk Fincke no
titled the Board that Constables William
Aershe; Third Ward; Ihomss A. McCape,
Fifth Ward, and Charles Borden, Twelfth
Ward, have failed to qualify. Their sue
cessors will have to be appointed by the
Aldermen.
