Mayor Wanser, of Jersey City, vacated
his Office on Monday, and Mayor elect
Hoos took charge, but under protest, and
now Mr.. Wanser's counsel, Corbin & Cor
bin, will carry the case to the Court of
Errors and Appeals, and try to have that
foul scheme of the legislation sustained
This law film advised the Republican
officials to hold on, but sentiment was SO
strong, even among decent Republican
leaders, that it was not needed, and the
law is to be contested before the Court of
last resort. Corbin & Corbin is the law
firm that got $4,000 fee for conducting
the discovery of Barney Ford's 200 pee
ulation, and if they do as well with this
case,the contest will pay them handsomely.

DOINGS IN NEW JERSEY,

Mount Holly, May 3.-Elton A. Smith
of Woodstock. VT, visited Smithville on
Saturday, and left orders for the be-
about the town and the large machine
works, which he has succeeded in OBJ
tanning after a determined and costly
litigation of eight years through all
the courts of New Jersey.
Plainfeld, May flames Campbell
was found unconscious beside the
tracks of the Central Railroad of New
Jersey, near Whitehouse, at an early
hour this morning. His skull had been
fractured, and it is supposed he was
struck by a coal train. He was brought
to the Muhlenberg hospital. in this city,
where he formerly lived. He is IS
years old.
Cape May. May 2.-The Cottagers'
association, composed principally of
non-residents, the city council and the
mayor, held a conference at the Wind
scr last night, at which the work being
done in the way of municipal improve
ments was voted as highly satisfac-
tory to the cottagers. They favored a
liberal appropriation for newspaper
advertising.
Jersey City, May General Nelson
A. Miles came from Washington today
to reclaim a diamond pin which was
stolen from his room in Taylor's hotel
while he was attending the Lincoln
banquet. The pin was recovered in a
peculiar manner. On Saturday night
Thomas Buchanan, bellboy at Tay-
lor's hotel, created a disturbance in
Frisch's saloon, II Montgomery street,
where he was playing pool William
Gallagher, the bartender, attempted to
eject him, and Buchanan struck Gal
lagher on the head with the butt of a
cue. He was arrested, and when he
was searched at the Gregory street
police station pawn ticket for dia-
mond pin was found in his possession.
The pin had been pawned in Mayors
pawnshop for IS. A detective went to
the pawnbroker's and examined the
pin, which was found to be the one
stolen from General Miles.

the Jewels recovered from the depr1s
have been photographed by the Ber-
till0n method, and the funeral service
of the victims has been fixed for the
cathedral of Notre Dame. M. Faure
will attend, and Pere Richard will
probably officiate.
The amount of administrative negli-
gence surrounding the catastrophe is
almost inconceivable The structure
was so combustible that many of the
victims, II not most of them, must
have been burned alive, without suffo-
cation. No sort of inspection seems to
have been made in advance by the
municipal or police authorities.
M. Lepine, the project of police, who
is severely censured for lack of proper
supervision. of the preparatory ar
rangements, says in excuse that the
patrons and patronesses of the bazaar
were Reaetionists. and he feared il he
meddled with their program that they
would say he was trying to suppress
a Roman Catholic enterprise.

PHILADELPHIA. Monday, May 3, 1897.

Four Millions Of Dollars in Spring
Stock.
Present stocks in the PhiIadel-
phia store alone exceed in value
Four Millions of Dollars.
The goods were ordered when
days were darkest and money had
the utmost buying power. On very
many lines we could realize large
profit by holding the goods-for
higher prices will come as Prosper
ity's sun mounts higher-and that
regardless of what action or mac
ton occurs at Washington.
But we gather exclusively for re-
tail selling-never for speculation.
And in the face of higher prices we
name lowest prices ever known on
many lines of goods, simply be-
cause they have been laid in dur
ing depressed times.
The news concerns everybody
who can come or who will write
promptly. Aggregate lots are large,
but of course of some lots prompt
Corners will quickly take our all.

ments; let us know whether you
were very young or middleaged,
that we might know how your
inches were built up-and the suit
we'd send would fit as we'll as the
tailor's suit at first trying-on. Bet
ter, in all probability.
Now if you come for the clothes
it's better still, for we can do such
altering as the tailor would have to
do. In short. we can give you
really tailored clothes ready-made.
The popular price for dressy suits
(not full dress suits) is SIS. They
are such suits as almost any really
good tailor would charge $40 to $50
for. You see, it is vastly cheaper
to make clothing in lots-there is
economy of time. No waiting for
you to come and try the suit on
and talk it over.
The best suits are 500 to $25-
the difference is half and half
cloth and extra hand-Work in the
tailoring.
The famous suit of the year at
this store is the aIl-wool fancy or
blue or black suit at Sc. so.
Almost forgot the OVERCOATS.
The dressy ones are SO to $50.

The New York Times Is a great news
paper, and processes to tell the whole truth,
yet we find it telling only halt the truth
in its effort to make a convincing reply 10
a correspondent, and by SO doing tells a
whole lie The Times is bound to believe
that VIM. J. Bryan is Populist, and as
proof thereof says that at his home ballot
box in 1892 he cast his ballot for the Presi-
dental candidate of the Populist party,
Mr. Weaver The Times neglects to say,
however, that $4,000 other Nebraska Demo
Gratis did the same thing, and at the solicit
tation of the Democratic National com
mittee, too And that all the Democrats
of Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, North Dakota
aud Wyoming did likewise, as did all the
Republicans of Florida, and it has never
entered the minds OF Republican leaders
or editors to acknowledge that their weak
party in Florida has all gone to the Popu-
lists

Railroads to Sue For Riot Damages

Chicago, May 6.-Judge Adams, in the
circuit court yesterday, took up the
case of the Manhattan Cement COM
pany, against the city of Chicago. This
is the first of a series of damage suits
begun by railroads and other corpora
lions to recover money for damages
done to their property during the riot
incident to the Debs strike in the sum-
mer of 1894 In itself the Manhattan
company's suit is a trifiing matter, but
when it is settled a precedent will be
established, and in all probability
suits of several railroads with termi-
nails in the city, involving a total sum
of about 81, 100000, will follow.
