We notice by an Oregon paper, that
Governor Stennenberg is quoted as
saying, that he was going to start his
campaign at once. People generally
have believed that he has been cam

RAILWAY EMPLOYEES ARRESTED.
Freight Train Crews Charged With
Blocking Pavonia Avenue.

Police Captain Kelly and Patrolman Cox
of the Seventh street station, were COM
plainants in the First Criminal Court this
morning against several employees Of the
Erie Railroad, who. they allege, have re-
peatedly violated a city ordinance by block
ING traffic on Pavonia avenue. They allege
that the crews of certain freight trains are
in the habit of leaving their trains standing
across Pavonia avenue, blocking trolley
cars, forcing pedestrians to climb over the
cars and placing the property below the
point of crossing in danger as in the event Of
a fire no engines could pass. Recently there
was fire and the engines were delayed
The matter was complained of by Chief
Denmead. The nuisance, the police say,
grows worse every day. When the police
complain of it to the crews of the train they
laugh at them and sometimes pelt them with
stones If pursued they fee on the engines.
This morning train stopped SO as to block
Pavonia avenue. Patrolman Cox ordered
the crew to move it on. Every member of
the crew defied him and to prove to him that
he was powerless to prevent them from
blocking the street deserted the train and
going beyond his reach allowed the train to
stand across the street for twenty minutes
Later Cox succeeded in arresting Warren
Ferris one of the brakemen, who lives at
No 63 Beach street.
Police Justice Nevin in the First Criminal
Court adjourned the hearing in his case un-
til to morrow morning He issued a war
rant for the arrest of James Ryan, engineer
of the train. The police have decided to
break up the practice of the railroad en-
ployes. who have for months defed the
authorities and the public in general

BICYCLISTS COMPLAINING.
DepIorable Condition of
Church Street Severely
Condemned.

. Bicyclists are complaining of the present
condition of Church street and Baldwin
avenue to Mill Road, the Viaduct and the
upper end of Mercer street. No road in the
city is more frequented by wheelmen, as 1t is
the only direct approach to the Boulevard
from lower Jersey City. The road at pres
ent is almost impossible. 1t has been made
so by the contractor who is cutting Baldwin
avenue through from Church street to
Academy street
His men pile the dirt wagons SO full that
large quantities of the heavy yellow earth
fall to the ground with each revolution OF
the wheels The dirt is permitted to stay
where it falls. The wagons have been de-
posting dirt in that manner every day for
over week, until now the dirt almost
completely covers the macadam to the
depth of nearly an inch. 1t is almost inn
possible to ride through it, The dirt retards
progress, clogs the wheels of the bicycle and
after rainstorm soils the clothes Of the
rider.
The same condition prevails on tie brick
pavement of the Viaduct The upper end OF
Mercer street is out Of repair. IL is filed
with rats to such an extent that hicyclists
are obliged to ride on the side path. The
sewers are all choked up with dirt so that
they will not carry off the water after
heavy rain.

FLED OVER BACK FENCES.
Thief on York Street Treats His
Pursuers to a Regular
Steeplechase.

An exciting thief chase over sheds and
through back yards in lower York street
occurred, yesterday afternoon. 1t result
ed in the capture of a burglar, who when
booked at the Gregory street station re-
fused to give his name. He was arrested
by Patrolman Oxley About % men and
boys assisted in capturing him. AT No.
So York street, next door to st. Joseph $
Home, and separated from the Home by
an alleyway is small tailor shop kept by
a man named Merker. Merker was away
from home yesterday afternoon. After
dinner Mrs. MerIxer and her daughter re-
tired to her room, which is in the rear of
the store, to take nap. She was
awakened shortly before three o'clock by
a noise in the store. She hurried into
the store and was confronted by a strange
man. She tainted.
The man fled through side door lead
ing into the aIleyway. The door was
broken and the thief had probably entered
through it. Mrs. Merker's daughter ran
into the street and was fortunate enough
to- find Patrolman Oxley on the corner.
She told him what had occurred. In the
meantime a number of men and boys VINO
live in the neighborhood had learned Of
the burglar and had started in pursuit of
him. The thief, instead of running to
the street. fled to the rear yard. He
climbed high shed and dropped into the
next yard and continued on in the same
manner until he entered a yard near
Washington street surrounded by high
fence. and in which there was no shed
or anything to assist him in getting out
The door of the house was locked so that
he could not pass through it to the street
Oxley and several men followed him over
fences and sheds until they came to the
yard where he was, as surely prisoner
as If he were in the police station. Ok
ley ON an adjacent shed covered the thief
with his revolver while one of the men
secured ladder and lowered it from the
shed into the yard. At the point of the
revolver the thief mounted the ladder and
in the same manner retraced his steps
over the sheds and to the street.
St. Joseph's Home was entered and
robbed two weeks ago. 1t is supposed
that the same man did the job. After
the arrest Patrolman Oakley investigat-
ed and found that the thief had rified a
bureau drawer in the bed room adjoining
that in which Mrs. Merker slept, and Sc
cured a number of small articles. They
were found in the yard where he had
thrown them.
In the First Criminal Court this morn
ing the prisoner said he is Joseph Nc
Quade of No 800 James street, N. Y. He
was held by Police Justice Nevin in 81 600
bail for the Grand Jury.

MAYOR WON'T TRUST THEM.
Expenditure Of License
Money to Be Entrusted to
Finance Board.

AS exclusively told in .'The News on
Saturday Mayor Hoos and Corporation
Counsel McDermott will have a confer
ence this afternoon with the Street and
Water Commissioners. The subject to be
discussed is the handling OF the special
street money which is derived from the
liquor license account The special street
portion of the license fund reaches $l250o0
annually. 1t has been customary for the
Street and Water Board to handle the
money. Mayor Wanser established a
precedent by removing the custody OF the
fund to the Finance Board. He made
that more because he was dissatisfied
with the way the money was being ex-
pended Mayor Hoos has now decided to
do as did Mayor Wanser. He believes
the Finance Board will handle the fund
more judicipusly than the Street and Wa
ter Commissioners.
1t is to tell the Commissioners this that
the Mayor has summoned them this after
noon The conference will be lively
one. The Street and Water Commits
sioners say the Mayor is going too far,
and that they propose ignoring him.
we We're elected to look after CITY
Streets said one of the Commissioners
today. I'VE are as anxious to administer
Affairs economically as is the Mayor. We
are just as much the representatives OF
the people as he is. He cannot become too
dictatorial, however. We have rights, and
we do not propose surrendering them to
the Mayor or anyone else. II the Mayor
insists upon the Finance Board assuming
control Of the special street money we Will
combat him. Eeither we will order the
work to be done or none will be ordered.
We do not propose being ignared. No
work has been done on the streets for
some time, and none will be done until
the Mayor decides to allow us to manage
our own affairs. We know what work
Finance Board We propose naming the
men who will do public work, too.
There has been too much dictation
from a certain source already
Mayor IIoos says he will keep all the
special street money tied up rather than
allow the Street and Water Board to
spend it as they wish.
