such would entail great additional ex-

Isaac B. Potter, of New York, National
President of the League of American
Wheelmen, answered the arguments of
t4C AdlliOddS ny Saying ludI the wheel
men were not asking to have bicycles
carried on railroads free of charge. They
have a right under a custom which has
existed for many years to carry with
them one hundred pounds of personal
baggage. He argued that as bicycles
were used for the passengers personal
convenience at the end of the Journey,
it must necessarily be classed as bag
sage. Our proposition is that the rail-
roads be compelled to carry bicycles
without an extra fee. Seven different
states have passed similar bills, and in
not a single instance has it been declared
unconstitutional. Pass this bill, and if
1t is unconstitutional the courts will so
decide it,. 1t has been in occasional in
stances that damage suits are institut-
ed. Once in a while a spoke in a wheel
is broken, but no wheelmen will ever
seek to recover damages for a thing that
could be repaired for fifteen cents.

LAST MARRIAGE HEARING.
Methodist ministers Oppose tn
Lloyd License Bill.
Special to fhe Jerscu City Meas


TRENTON, March 26, 1S97.-The mar
rage license bill had it's final hearing be-
fore a legislative committee for this ses-
sion when the Senate Committee on the
Revision of Laws yesterday afternoon
gave it a twenty minutes hearing. The
Senate Committee has decided to report
the bill, amending it. so that when the
parties desiring to be married are non
residents they will nave to take out a
license. This will remedy the existing
evils at Camden. The committee will also
amend the bill so as to provide that
ministers will have to be licensed before
they can perform a marriage
AT yesterdays hearing the galleries of
the Senate, as we'll as the floor, were
filled with ~clergymen, a greater portion
of whom were ~antagonistic to the bill.
Rev. L. v. Vansant was the first speak
er, and he explained that he was dele
gated by the New Jersey Methodist Con-
ference to present to the Senate the
findings of the Conference. They had
passed a resolution, he said, protesting
against the passage of the Lloyd bill
He then read the resolution which de-
nounced the Lloyd measure as unwise,
unnecessary, prejudicial to morality and
an evasion against the rights of the peo-
pie. The Ohio law requiring ministers to
be licensed before they can perform a
marriage ceremony would pc. agreeable
to the Conference, n he thought 1T
met the requirements of all concerned,
and he then read some abstracts from q
letter b. the late Or. Ezra M. Hunt, for
merly Of the Bureau of Vital Statistics,
in which it was set forth that our present
law was equal to any now in vogue. Rev
DR.. Studdiford, of the Third Presbyterian
Church of this city, also spoke against
the bill. He said that he thought the
preachers in Camden who have been so
severely criticized, have been unjustly
condemned. The people coming from
Pennsylvania to be married did so for a
the Pennsylvania law. DIR. John Haley
of Camden also made a brief talk in OPP
position to the bill. Rev. f. w. ackSon,
Jr., a divine of the Presbyterian Church
of Jersey City and son of the well known
railroad man, said that he lived in Ohio
he found that the law there does not
work any differently than the present law
in New Jersey. He was married himself
in Georgia when it was necessary to take
out a license, and thought no honest man
should object to comply to these require
ments. The Lloyd bill was in behalf of
the welfare of the people of the State.

A NEW DEPARTURE.
II. @. Brown 81 Van Angien Company
Exsaihifs Beautiful Hnts.

T. G.. Brown and Van Anglen Company
has made a new departure this season.
A millinery department has been added
to the store. The department is on the
second floor of the new building. A large
space in the front has been turned into
a very pretty millinery parlor- A hand
some mahogany showcase contains some
of the very pretty hats displayed. Two
or three comfortable oak chairs in front
of oak tables and pretty mirrors make
1t easy for customers to try on hats and
decide on the relative merits of the pref
ty structures. The opening of the mil
linery department was held yesterday,
and the room was very atractively decor
ated with large palms. The ladies of
this city evinced their interest in the
department by attending the opening in
crowds. The room was thronged with adj
hiring throngs from early in the MORN
ing till the hour of closing.
There were d number OF pretty hats
displayed. The department is under the
efficient management of Madame de Lau,
and the taste which she shows IS eX-
some walking hats, strictly tailor
made. One of these is of shaded straw
with large and small regime wings, bows
A striking afternoon hat is of blouet
chiffon trimmed with ceriSe mouSseline
ribbon and silk and cerise silk and vel-
vet peoples. There is a handsome line of
stylish and becoming shapes. One effec-
tive plateau is of brown trimmed with
brown wings, violets and cerise knots of
ribbon.
One of the most stylish hats in a Pam
anna walking hat. 1t has wide ruffles
of black MORE and lace at the side and
falling over the brim at the back on the
hair. In front is a stunning bow of
green moire ribbon fastened with a
rhinestone buckle. At each side of the
bow are sweeping black aigrettes. In
| addition to all the fancy hats there is a
large line of imported crepe pattern
bonnets. Untrimmed hats and trimmings
| may also be had and unlike many stores
| peoples materials will be taken and used
for trimming. Thu novelties used and
the pattern hats are exclusive. The hats
exhibited compare favorably with those
displayed in New York stores, and they
are at much more reasonable figures.
Any lady win feel greatly repaid by a
visit to the new department.

Jersey City should hold jubilee, today,
over the immense boon which she secured
yesterday from the railroads.
The passage of Assembly bill No. 1874
through the Senate, thus completing its
career through the Legislature. guaran-
tees this city about sl14.ooo a year more
than we have heretofore received out of
railroad taxation. This sum viii place
the finances of the city in good shape for
some years to come, even if we have to
pay a good stiff price for our water
supply.
It is true this money is not all that we
should receive. It is true that it does
not place upon the railroads any greater
share of the public burdens. In a word,
it does not end the great taxation com
settled in this State until the Consti-
~tutional requirement of absolute equality
is fulfilled. But, though it fall short of
absolute justice, it is a vast and most
opportune gain for our taxpayers, n it
is in order for US to exult over what we
have got without fretting over what we
have failed to get. but may get in the
future.
The credit of this victory is mainly
Democratic, though Mayor wanser fairly
n squarely deserves a big share of
honor for the part he has played. 1t
was the Democratic minority, led by
John Wahl Queen, which forced the rail-
roads and the Republican party into sue
a corner last year hat they were COM
PEELED to appoint the Stockton Commits
sion. The case for Jersey City was made
entirely by MISREPRESENTATION D. Ed
wards. the counsel for the city, and Ed
low w. Harrison, its engineer. To speak
of the work lone by these gentlemen
would be superfluous. The result speaks
for it. Then the majority of the Commits
sion was Democratic. Attorney Genera
John P. Stockton, Commissioner Charles
c. Black and Mr.. Abraham M. Reynolds
are all Democrats, and they controlled
the nature of the report. Finally. it was
the tremendous Democratic victory for
the local offices in this city in all recent
elections, which so filed the G. o. p.
leaders with dread, that they pushed the
measure of relief through the Legislature
to avert worse consequences from them
selves and their dear corporations.
