JANSEN Is INSANE
Judge Hudspeth Sends the Butler 70
Morris Plains.

August Jansen, the crank who claims to
be a count, but who is not too proud to
serve as a coachman or a butler, was
sent up from Hoboken to the County jail
yesterday afternoon to be examined by
County Physician Converse as to his san
ity. Jansen is the fellow who has been
annoying wealthy families for years in
New York and elsewhere. He has 1evot-
ed great deal of his attention to making
life miserable for Mrs. e. P. C. Lewis
and her family in .Hoboken, and he has
also tried to force himself into the Stew
ems mansion at Castle point. DIR. Con-
verse anad City Physician Simon, of Ho-
boken, examined Jansen yesterday after
moon and this morning and concluded that
he was insane He is not violent or dam
gerouS now, but he is liable to have an
outbreak at any moment If he should be
repulsed or crossed in any way. 1t was
decided that the best place for him Is the
Asylum at Norris Plains, and while he is
there his victims will be free from annoy
ance Drs. Converse and Simon and
Lawyer E. P. c. Lewis, Mrs. Lewis's son,
were in Court this morning to make ap-
pltcatfon to Judge Hudspeth for Jansen's
commitment to the asylum, but the Judge
to go down to his office. Jansen will be
kept at the asylum at the expense of the
State, under a new law which provides
that any insane person who has no habi-
tation in county can be sent to Morris
Plains.
Judge Hudspeth. having heard the doc
tors statements, formally committed him.

use OF the river for pleasure purposes,
thousands, has become comparatively in
frequent. and the attractiyeneSS OF the
river may be said to have disappeared.
. Ine Commissioners In their meetings at
the various towns ON the river found
al citizens deeply concerned and anxious
for action to remove pollution. Their tes-
limony was substantially identical, and
winnie there was a natural desire to avoid
injury to the fair fame of their towns, it
was their unanimous sentiment that the
pollution of the river had caused great
depreciation in property values along the
stream. During the hot months resi-
aences within a short distances of the
habitabie on account of the stencil, and
the necessity of keeping windows closed
on not nights, to bar out the evil odors,

jury TO property at all points below Pat

yantages of the valley and its neighboring
heights for suburban residence The ac-

public health was discussed with caution

On behalf of the Board of Directors,
JOSIAH T. TUBBY,
SIa.nr. .Ar..z.
New York. February "a. 1ss7.

"
New York, February "a, 1897
Mr.. Tubby announced that the Board Of
Directors had yesterday declared divi-
drsnd of one per cent, to take effect on
April l. This was, he said, a proof that
better times were coming, for last year no
dividend at all was declared Mr. Robert
Frazer, of New York, while admitting
that the Board of Directors had made
many mistakes during the administration
of the trusts affairs, they were honest
they were not frank enough with the
stockholders. Their report, while satdS-
factory, he said, was not explicit enough.
1t did not go fully into the affairs Of the
company.
E Il believe he said, shat this year we
WILL make money, and have not the direc-
tors a. word of encouragement for us?
Hide was never at such a low price, and
surely money ought to be made.i
Mr.. Frazer said that between 10000 and
.V0O0O hides, common, were coming into
the market at an average price OF thirteen
cents per pound, while common hides now
an stock were worth fourteen cents per
pound. In view of this fact, he said, the
directors ought to frankly state whether
pr not there was a prospect to make amy
money. If there was none then 1t would
be much better to dissolve the company
and go out of the business.
Mr.. Lafflin of New York endorsed Mr..
Frazer's views. The directors, he said.
should lay bare all the facts even If they
were discouraging.
The president of the meeting, MIR. Tub
by, in reply said that the directors were
strongly opposed to making any off-hand
statements as to the outlook. Certainly.
he continued the prospects were never
better than now, but the directors felt
that were they to say anything their
motives might be misconstrued, as they
had been before. He thought it bad poll
Icy and consequently the directors were
unable to say any more than that con-
tanned in their report. An election Of
twenty-seven directors then took place,
with the following result James Horton,
