DON'T LIKE THE AGREEMENT.
Erie Track Elevation Association to
Discuss The Proposed Work.

The Association for the Elevation of the
Erie Railroad Tracks will hold special
meeting some day next week to discuss
the recently published agreements made by
the Mayor with the railroad officials lit
is the feeling of the majority of the menu
bers of the association that the elevation
of the tracks does not warrant the vaca-
ton of all the streets mentioned in the
agreement. They think. that the main pur-
pose can be accomplished with less
giving UP of public property.
Then, too, there is some doubt as to
the works which the com pany proposes to
are men having practical experience in
construction work, and in their opinion
the plans of the company teught TO be
changed in many essential points The
date for the meeting has not been def
initeiy fixed, but the president will issue
his call in a few days.

Her own CHILDREN LOST
Matron Of a Burning Orphan
Asylum Looked Out for
Her Charges.

DALLAS, Texas. Jan. 16, 1s97.-Buck-
ner's Orphan Home. located in the SUI
burbs Of this city. was destroyed by fire
shortly after midnight this morning. Five
boys perished in the flames and several
were seriously burned. The dead are:-
Carloz Jones, Birdie Britton, Milton Brit
ton, Martin Britton, and an unknown
child.
Mrs. Britton, the matron, had been in
bed but short time when she smelled
smoke and Immediately raised the alarm,
and runners were sent to all their rooms
to alarm the children and get them out
of the building. After seeing a large
percentage of the children had been re-
moved from the building and that others
would be out in a few moments, she
suddenly remembered her own children,
and. running to her room, endeavored to
rescue them.
She was too late however. The fire
had already entered her own room, and
although she fought the flames with des-
perate zeal, she was compelled to retreat
with the affrighted cries of her children
ringing in her ears.
In the confusion which reigned while
the children were being hurriedly as
sisted from the building many were over
looked and several were seriously burned
but it is not believed their injuries will
prove fatal. Owing to the confusion par
ticulars of the fire are hard to obtain
but it is believed the fire was the result
of carelessness. Just before retiring for
the night Matron Britton ordered one Of
the larger boys in the institution to pre-
pare fire in a stove beneath her room
to be kindled in the morning. The boy
reported that he had arranged the FIRE
hot ashes We're dro,ned ip' on the Hoo fiaor se set5
ting fire to the woodwork. Before the
fire apparatus from this city could reach
the scene the building with its contents
was entirely destroyed. The loss on prop
erty is estimated al about S150 600.

The decision in the chancery case of
the Attorney General against the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company to break up the
Cigarette trust, will not be given until
after the determination of cause similar
in all its details against the company
now before the United States Supreme
Court. 1t is understood that the New
Jersey Chancery Court. when it does
hand down its decision. will say that it is
without jurisdiction. This is the con-
tention of the lawyers who represented
the Tobacco Company, Messrs. Joseph Fl.

the case grave doubts were entertained
even by those who were fighting the
trust that the Court Of Equity had any

STEVENS STUDENTS SMOKER.

The annual smoker of the students of
Stevens Institute of Hoboken was held
last night at Quartette Club Hall. About
200 of the boys were present, and that
the affair was a success goes without
saying. The Glee, Banjo and Mandolin
Clubs were in fine trim, and each turn
was vociferously encored. A sort OF vau-
devillc show was given and during the
intermission a lunch was served. The
more festive of the students deserted the
hall about midnight and proceeded to
the various cafes and by noon had paint
ed Hoboken a most glorious crimson.

TAXPAYERS PROTEST
A Petition Against the.
Water Contract Presen-
ted to the Mayor.
THE CITY CAN'T AFFORD IT
Want the Authorities to Wait I'm
til the Passaic Pollution
Commission Reports.

The following petition was handed to
Mayor Wanser on Thursday morning
To His Honor, Mayor Wanser:--
We, the undersigned, citizens and tax
payers of Jersey City. do hereby earnestly
request and pray that your Honor will
withhold your signature from the pres
ent pending water contract, for the fol-
lowing reasons:-
First-The East Jersey Water Company
mas no water of its own to sell without
nrst getting the franchise and power to
condemn from the city and State. This
would put Jersey City in the astonishing
position of first giving away her valu-
able rights and property and then pay
ing to this water syndicate an enormous
price ($6 500, oOO to get it back again.
SecOnd-The financial condition of Jer-
sey City is such that it would be in1pos-
sible for her to stand this tremendous
additional debt without being compelled
to increase the tax rate to about four
drive people away from Jersey City, not
on account of impure water but rather
because of the impure political methods
which have permitted the pernicious in
Huence of the East Jersey Water Com
pany to withhold from Jersey City her
proper and needed supply of water.
Third-We think that Jersey City
the Legislative Pollution Committee for
devising means for the publication and
service of the Passaic, appointed last
winter, shall have made its report.
Fourth-And. finally, by signing this
water contract with the East Jersey
Water Company, Jersey City will lose her
now valuable franchise in the Passaic
River and its watersheds, besides it
would be rewarding this East Jersey
Water Company for its vicious and
obstructive legislative policy, which it
has pursued for many years, in prevent
ing and depriving Jersey City from get
ting such legislation as would have en-
abled her to secure her own supply of
pure water.
