The GOVERNOR.
Essex Trades Council De-
nounced the Republicans
Labor Policy.

The Essex Trades Council scored Gov
ernor Voorhees, at its meeting Friday
night in Newark. Delegate Werkstein, of
the Bakers Union, said that George
Taylor had been appointed Factory IN.
speetor because he was a good Repub-
lican worker
During eighteen years connection with
labor matters, said Delegate Byron, II
have learned a great deal about the labor
bureaus. Up to the time when the pres
ent political party got in power the APP
pointments to the labor bureaus have
been made with a regard to the standing
of the appointees on labor matters, but
when the present party got in power four
men, never connected with labor in any
way, We're put on the State Board of Ar
bitration and other labor bureaus.
1T is time solemn protest was ut
tered he continued I'VE fought hard
for the establishment of these bureaus,
but now, men with no sympathy for la
bor have been appointed to them"
Some one brought gthe attention of the
Council back to the consideration of the
motion. but only for moment, because
another motion was offered that the
Council denounce the party for the ap-
pointments antagonistic to labor inter-
ests, which have been made to the in
dustrial bureaus by the present dominant
party.
However, no one seconded the motion
and Secretary OiConnor got the floor and
went back to the original subject, and to
defence of Inspector Callan. 1t had
been stated during the excitement of the
proceedings that Callan had never en-
forced the law that seats be furnished In
stores for women clerks Mr.. O'Connor
said that Mr.. Callan could not enforce
the law because 1t was not in shape
to be enforced until about three months
ago.
Delegate Gottlob was called on TO verify
this and did SO. While on the floor he
seized the opportunity to lay the blame
for anti-labor appointments on men, not
parties.
1T is the men who are responsible for
these doings, he declared During the
last session of the Legislature all the bills
presented by the labor people were passed
by the Assembly. which was Republican
and most of them passed the Senate but
when they got to the Governor. this man
voorhees, vetoed them. This man Voorhees,
is bad man, vehemently declared the
speaker But there are bad men in both
parties. he said further. There's a
Democrat whose name begins with D. and
who is looking for the nomination for
Governor, who is no good either And
there are good men in both parties The
thing TO do, asserted the speaker, SIS to
vote with no party. Vote for men. That's
what l do and l do not care who knows

DISORDER IN SPAIN.
Gendarmes Fired on in Many
Places--Queen's Hard
Lines.
rBy Gable to The Associated Press. /

PARIS, July %, 1S9S.-Privata letters re-
ceived here from Madrid, under date of
July %. announce that the internal dis
orders in the Spanish Provinces continue
Some demonstrations have taken place
at Granada, supposed TO be due to the op-
position manifested towards the octroi
tax and owing to other local disputes.
But. in view of the rigorous censorship
on all questions of public order, it is diff
ficult to ascertain the facts.
Al Gariga, in the Province of Barcelona,
a mob recently fired on the gendarmes
and an armed band. said to have been
composed of Jail birds, has appeared at
Banco and Valdorras. The police are pur-
suing the members of the band but. thus
far the efforts of the authorities to cap
ture them have been futile,
Great precautions were taken at the
open air theatre in the Buan Retro Gar
degs In Madrid, yesterday evening Fri-
day, July 70, owing to an unexpected
demonstration in favor Of General Wey-
Ter. who was present; but, nothing de-
veloped.
A special despatch from Madrid gives
the following account of the Queen Re-
gents daily life during the present cri-
sis:-
Poor Queen. This is the exclamation
so often heard Of late, day after day, as
matters grow worse and worse, as the
Spanish disasters repeat themselves, and
as the Throne of the little King seems Slip
ping from her hands, into which it was
given IN trust. l see Her Majesty looking
eareworn and anxious. Even her drives
are becoming fewer and fewer. It would
surely appeal to any mother in the world
were she to see the way this Queen
mother each day seems to cling closer
and closer to her boy, as though
to shield him from the dangers closing
about him with almost fatal force. IT is
very touching to witness It. Hes worst
enemies recognize in the Queen personal
qualities worthy of the highest admira-
tIon. The Queen used every means at
her disposal to prevent war. Her great
hope lay IN Senior Moret ksenor Moref y

SCENES IN GUANTANAMO BAY
Picturesque Rendezvous Of the
American Warships and z
Transports.
fBy Gable to The Associated Press.l

MADRID, July a. 1S9S.-(600 P. Nh
DELAYED in transnission)-Th correspon-
dent here of the Associated Press has
had an interesting conversation with a
person occupying high position in the
Queen Regents household and whose
duties bring him daily into intimate re-
lations with Her Majesty. He said the
:, quarrel between Spain and the United
than generally believed.
The Queen Regent, he continued, natur-
ally endeavored to avoid war, and natur
ally also she desires ar honorable peace.
She is quite alive to the force of public
opinion and holds strictly to the consti-
tutional laws of the nation. It is an error
to suppose the Queen Regent is under the
pressure of the present or any govern
newt or that she is regardless of public
opini$n when it is in consonance with the
true tterests of the Spanish people.
the ddicial referred to then added an
important statement, saying pres
ent Government will not initiate peace,
but a modifieo Cabinet, headed BY Senior
Gamazo (Aainistor of Pubic Instruction.,
will conclude the negotiations and then
retire, and General Polavieja, with a
combination including Senior Silvela and
General Campos, will reorganize the
country. Everybody considers Spain
should treat direct with the Americans,
whose practical good sense will prevail
over spreadeaglism."
According to despatch from Cadiz to
the sImparciar of this city, adyices from
Tangier say the Foreign Minister of
Morocco declares that If the Americans
enter Moroccan ports they will be notified
TO leave in twenty-four hours, and, it is
added. if they refuse to do so Morocco
will place herself under the protection of
the Powers.
The peace probabilities are anxiously
eanvassed at Tangier since the arrival
there of the new United States Consul,
and, the special despatch from Cadiz
adds, the belief increases that the United
States does not intend to deprive Spain
of anything but the Antilles.

who suffered agonies. When he had ap-
piled such remedies as he could he had
her removed to the City Hospital. 1t was
reported there this morning that she was
slightly better and that she had a chance
of recovering.
1t is probable that the size of the dose
she took may be the means of saving her
life as its action on her system was TOO
powerful to produce immediate deadly re-
suits. It is said that Mrs Ames mind
was affected by overmuch religious zeal
and that that led her to attempt her

GREENvlLLE's DARK LANTERNS.
Another Complaint About the Street
Lanaps--Remedy at Hand.

The following Letter has been received In
reference to the lighting, or rather hon-
lighting, of lamps in some of the West
Side streets of Greenville, complaint con
cerning which has been repeatedly made;
To the Editor of "The Jersey City
News',:--
sir-I, with several other residents
of the West Side Of .Greenviile was
glad to see The News on Saturday
tried over and over again to have the
that the lamps are lighted a decent
time, but some how the police are too
busy with other matters. We mean
no reflection on Captain Nugent. be-
cause we know how handicapped he IS
with a big territory and few men 10
properly patrol it; on the contrary. we
have reason to think that he IS doing
his best to look after the precinct.
If the officers on the post were to
keep a sharp lookout for the lamp
lighters and see that they did their
duty. we would be as happy as clans
at high tide. An officer can DO much
with the irnperious and somewhat sas-
sy individual who presides over the
neighborhoed of Greenville avenue.
Thanking The News for calling at
tention to this grievance, | am,
Yours,
A 'GREENVILLAIN.''
For the information of the many conn
plainants News representative laid
the mater before Mr.. John Boyd, City Ir-,
spector of Lamps today, and he has prom
iSed to give immediate attention to it.
