lington, Hunterdon, Sussex, Middlesex

MERCHANTS In SESSION.
Weights and Measures Ordinance
Not Discussed-The FoOd Exbibit.

A small attendance and very little busi-
ness transacted marked last nights meet
ing of the Merchants Protective Associa-
ton, at the Avenue House, as an excep-
tional one for this usually active organiza-
ton.
President Anderson called the meeting
to order at 9:15. Inspector of Weights and
Measures A. Edward Roede failed to avail
himself of the associations invitation to
attend, and therefore the much discussed
pending weights and measures ordinance
was only touched on by the report OF
Secretary Newton of the committee which
had been appointed to wait on the MEM
bers of the Board Of Aldermen to confer
on the proposed measure and make GER
tain recommendations in regard to
changes in the ordinance.
The secretary reported that the COM
mitteee had completed its work and that
the Aldermen had agreed to make the
alterations suggested by the association.
On motion of Vice President Cough, the
report was received and the committee
discharged.
The managers of the Paterson Food
Exhibition sent an invitation to the mer-
chants to join with them on Nov. in
the celebration of what have been termed
'Grocers Day." Among the attractions
will be parade and fireworks The invi-
tation was accepted.

FIGHT FOR POSTMASTER.
Fear Senator SeweIl Will Endorse
Dark Horse.


Especial to .The Jersey City News."1
vINELAND, Nov. 2, 1s97.-The term of
Postmaster John M Simpkins does not ex-
pire until February next, yet the hot
fight for the office now being waged be-
tween two of the most prominent poll
ticians of the town is attracting great at
tention. Colonel Jarvis Wanser an old
Republican war horse, has just sent to
Washington a petition about thirty-fve
feet long bearing the names of citizens
who want him to be their next Postmas-
ter. Besides having the support of the
presidents of the Sound Money Business
Mems and Republican clubs of Vdneland.
the Colonel claims to have the indorse-
ment of State Senator E. C. Stokes and a
good majority of the Republican County
Executive Committee.
Wansers most formidable opponent is
Assemblyman James ]. Hunt, who is now
running for a second term in the Legisla-
-ture. Hunt has the backing of Assembly
man Bloomfield Minch, ex-Sheriff Allen r.
Shinn and other prominent politicians of
the county. The candidacy Of Assembly
man Hunt only recently leaked out and
was a big surprise to the town. He is
working hard to pocket the political plum
and his friends are confident of success.
The contest continues to grow in bitter
ness and already there are hints that
Senator Sewell, who holds the key to the
situation may indorse a dark horse in or
der to save the party here from disrup-
ton. Elias G. Jones, a young politician
of the town, is also husthng for the office.
He says he has certain secret but power
full backing, which will soon surprise his
competitors. The Vineland post Office
does the largest business of any town of
it's size in the State. Its salary, $2,300,
regulated by the volume of business done,
is 5000 more than that of the Millville
Post Office, and only 800 less than the
salary paid by the post office at Bridge

his wife, who said she heard some person
prowling around on the parlor floor. The
back parlor of the Kuntz home Is used

downstairs, and peering into the bed
room, saw a man at work rifiing the
bureau drawers. He entered the room,
and seizing the intruder held him while
his wife summoned Patrolman Reilly. The
prisoner gave his name as Alexander
Campbell, of No. II Bright street.
In the First Criminal Court this morn
ing he told Justice Nevin he knew nothing
about entering Kuntz' house. He was on
a spree last night and came to his senses

door unlocked for his son. No burglars
tools were found upon Campbell, who had
not forced an entrance to the house. He
was held for further examination tomor-

WHO IS THE NEW RECTOR.

The members of the Board of vestry of
Trinity Episcopal Church, Hoboken, met
last evening at the home of DR.. Henry
Morton in River street, for the purpose of
considering the selection OF a rector to
succeed the Rev. DR.. George c. Hough-
ton. The vestrymen declined to make
public the result of the meeting. 1t IS
probable, however, that candidate was
selected and that the vestrymen do not
wish to give his name until they are cer-
tain he will accept the charge.
Rufus Besson, member of the Board,
said this morning that no information re-
garding the vacant rectorship would be
given out for a few days He refused to
give the slightest hint as to whether or
not any candidate had been named.
