INJURED TWO GENERATIONS.
Curious Case of Assault Tried Before
Judge Nevln.

Michael Kelly and mis- wife Mary, of No.
1863 Henderson street, were arraigned be-
fore Police Justice Nevin in the First
Criminal Court this morning charged
with having assaulted Mrs. Patrick
O'Hare, of No. Isl Bay street. The as
sault occurred a few days ago.. At that
time both families lived in the house No.
1863 Henderson street. After the trouble
the O'Hares moved.
Mrs. OTHare in her complaint, which
was taken in the First imina Court
yesterday, alleges that Mrs. Kelly threw
a kettle of scalding water upon her, in
ficting a painful burn upon her breast.
She has a doctors certificate to prove
that she was badly burned.
Mrs. O'Hare was not in court this
morning, but her counsel, James Man
ming, appeared for her, and asked for an
adjournment of the case for at least three
weeks. Lawyer Manning told Justice
Nevin that his client gave birth to a
child yesterday after leaving the court
room and that it bears evidence on its
body of the violence done the mother.
The case will be heard as soon as Mrs.
O'Hare is able to appear in court.

SCARED THE POLICE.
Child Finds a Harmless Package
which ThNy Thouuht a bomb.


A little furry of excitement was caused
over in the Horseshoe district last
night by the announcement that a dyna-
mite bomb had been found by the police
under one of the benches in Hamilton
Park.
1t was a child who first discovered the
wicked looking bomb" The child had
picked up a package from beneath a set
tee, and handed it to its mother The
outer wrapper was of blue paper. It was
heavy. Tearing away the wrapper, the
woman discovered a cylindrical shaped tin
box, about five inches high and two and
a half inches in circumference. 1t was
filed with a solid, heavy substance. On
the rim of the top apparently protruded
a cartridge. The woman carefully laid
the package down on the s%ettee, and with
her child hurried from the spot, warning
women and children on her way to keep
away from the settee she had just left.
Espyin Policeman Lenahan, she has
tened to him and breathlessly told him
the story of her awful find. Lenaalan ex-
amined the package. He was dubious. 1t
didn't look harmful. Nevertheless, the
cartridge looked suspicious, and he de-
cided to submit the find to experts at the
Seventh street station house. Thither he
took it.
The ..bomb'' was soused in a bucket
of water and placed in the prison corri-
dor. There it remained until Superin-
tendent Foley of the Police Telegraph
Signal System examined 1t and found it to
be nothing more than a broken dry cell of
a Mescom electric battery. An exploded
cartridge shell had been forced down upon
the winding post of the cell.
The find was generally discussed over
in the Horseshoe last night. Some peo-
pie said Captain Kelly put up a joke on

QUAIL JURY CELEBRATING.
After Spending a Night az a fzotel
They Hear the Judges Charge.

The trial of Robert Quail for the muir
| der of Michael Lynch, at No. 6 Van Horn
| street, on January 10, progressed slowly
| setting up the plea of insanity super
induced by drinking, produced a number
of witnesses who testified that the de-
| PENDANT was a man of temperate habits
and peaceable disposition. The witnesses
were principally sa%loonkeepers and they
testified that Quail took a glass of beer
occasionally.
DR.. Rooney was called as an expert on
insanity. He testified that a man who
was addicted to the use of alcoholic
liquors for the time that the defendant
was said to have used them was liable
to suffer from paretic dementia. The
witness examined Quail and concluded
that his brain had been eaken for
some time previous to January 10 and is
| still weak. In the opinion of the witness
the defendant was and is mentally ire
| sponsible.
On cross-examination DR.. Rooney said
that he a had experience in insanity
cases in New York and this State, but
on getting down to statistics he could
recall only two cases in which he had
been engaged.
DR.. Rector testified that an undue use
of alcohol would impair the memory.
Counsel summed up before adjournment,
Lawyers Mccormack and Hendrick for
the defendant and Prosecutor Erwin for
the State. The jury were then taken to
the Hotel Washington for the night. They
arrived in court at $3.50 this morning and
Judge Blair delivered his charge. The
charge was lucid and entirely impartial.
The jury retired at 10:15.

ANXIOUS RESERVES.
All the Young sailors Want 10 BE
Ordered on the

There is much uncertainty among the
members of the Battalion of the East,
Naval Reserves, over the detail to man
the auxiliary cruiser Badger, which has
been ordered by the government from the
Battalion. This anxiety is caused by the
fact that the Navy Department order
calls for only about one-half of the crew,
and some one has to stay behind. The
detail has not been made yet, and will not
be until the men have been examined
physically by Surgeon Maxwell Simpson.
1t is the int ention of the commander to
send no one to the Navy Departments
surgeon for examination until they have
passed Lieutenant Simpsons eagle eye
He wants the smallest number possible re-
jected by the Government.
There is much speculation over the Off
GERS who will be on the detail, and the
latest roster reads Lieutenant, Execu-
tive officer Mclean; Navigator, Edward
NJ. Peters; Lieutenants, Junior grade,
Irving Blount and George Mather; Pay
master, Arthur Colby; Surgeon, Maxwell
Simpson; Chief Engineer, B. Franklin
Hart, and Easigns, D. A. Dugan, Charles
w. vreeland, e. Kimble, w. H. Ander-
son and Thomas Goldingay.
An election for an ensign to take the
place of Benedict Preith, who resigned
some time ago, will be held shortly by the
Newark Division. F. H. Tausey and
Chief Boatswain's mate, Hudson are the
candidates. Hudson is the ~favorite.

FEW APPEALS HEARD
State Board Of Taxation Sits
in the City Hall
Today.

The State Board of Taxation met in
the Aldermanic Chamber, City Hall, to-
day. Commissioners Black, Lentz and
West and Secretary Usher were present.
Tax Commissioners Love. Clarke and Nc
Arthur, Clerk James e. Connolly and City
Attorney w. P. Douglass were on hand
to look after the city's interests.
Very few appeals were filed and they
were as a whole from small holders of
realty. The local Appeal Board reduced
the assessments levied by the Tax Board
more than $500, 900. That fact is respon-
the State Board.
The most important case before the
Board today was that of ~ex-Finance
Commissioner John M. Jones. He asked
that twenty Its on West Side and Sip
enues assessed at $500. be reduced to
$500. He was willing, he said, to sell any
and all of the lots for $225 apiece.
John ]. Gaffney was a witness for Mr..
Jones. He testified that he sold the lots
to Mr.. Jones in 1891 for $500 apiece.
The Tax Commissioners put George
Pforr, a clerk, on the stand. He testified
that he represented himself as IA buyer
to Mr.. Gaffney. That gentleman asked
$3.50 each for lots in the neighborhood.
Yes" interrupted Mr.. Gaffney, 4
asked that price after you had intimated
to me that you wanted the property for
a brewery
The members of the State Board did
not approve of the Pforr method of get
ting at valuations and said so.
President Black announced that as
Pforr was not a bona fide buyer his talk
with Gaffney would ave no weight with
the Board. Commissioner Lentz criti-
cized the action and intimated broadly
that the reduction asked by Mr.. Jones
would be allowed.
William Mclaughlin, a Newark avenue
merchant, asked to be relieved of a 1000
personal property assessment. He was
before the local Board but obtained no
relief. Decision in his case was reserved.
Henry Ewald appeared in behalf of
Henry Raedeman. owner of a lot at No.
l29 Brunswick street. which was assessed
at $500. 1t was reduced to $3.50. Mr..
Ewald also secured a reduction of 500 on
a lot at No. 1877 Brunswick street, owned
by Albert Mayer.
George McEwan asked that the assess
ment on the four-story brick house, at
No. 251 Newark avenue, be reduced from
brought out, is insured for $40. 600. No
action was taken on the appeal.
Counsellor McEwan also asked that the
assessment of S, COO on No. 176 Ogden ave-
nue. be reduced $500 at least. The lot
alone is worth 81, 200. No action was taken
on the appeal.
The Eagle Tube Company of Green and
Montgomery streets asked that its assess
ment be reduced from &c. 900 to $500.
Charles w. Fiske disputed every state
ment made by the company's representa-
tive, Clarence Stevens. He insisted that
the company's plant is worth $500 at
least. A small reduction is to be allowed
The assessment IN No. Sc Atlantic
street, owned by e. +. Davis, was re-
duced from $1,S00 to $1,400.
James t. Cough asked that the assess
be reduced.
Cough has tried for years to have this
assessment lowered. but to no avail.
The Board took a recess at one o'clock.

The men and women interested in or
ganized temperance work in this country,
are, on the whole. very worthy people"
writes Edward w. Box in the May
Ladies' Home Journal" 'sThey are sin
cere, energetic and well-meaning. But
sometimes they lack that nicely and wis
dom of Judgment which is absolutely
necessary in organized effort in order that
the surest success may be won. They
sometimes, unfortunately, allow their zeal
to run away with them. This tendency
was recently shown in one of their official
statements which bewailed the startling
growth of intemperance in America dur
ing the year 1897. Many good people. to
whom the circular containing this state
ment is sent. will be prone to believe this
assertion. They have not the means at
hand by which to verify such a state
ment. and will be made uncomfortable
by it, whereas, in reality, exactly the
opposite is the truth. There has never
been a time in America when every indi-
cation pointed SO strongly to a decrease
Of intemperance as the present. There
has never been so little drinking as at
present, never such a strong tendency
toward moderation in quarters where
alcoholic Indulgence is general. This Is
a fact impossible to controvert, because
the most careful figures bear out this
very hopeful statement"

VEToES THREE.
Mayor Hoos Kills on -Four strees
and Water Appofntees.

anu ntoI APVOhtreH
Mayor Hoos dropped three eight-inch
shells in the camp of the Street and
Water Commissioners this afternoon.
The Board met at three o'clock, The
Commissioners were not astonished when
Clerk Bouton Observation-Disclosures
from His Honor the Mayor The mem-
bers have been expecting to hear from
Mayor Hoos owing to the incidents at
tending the organization of the Board.
But when the communications were read,
they were surprised.
The first message was a veto of the
resolution which appointed George Ber-
ger a general clerk to succeed Henry
Simon, deceased, at $1,000 a year. Berger
is Mr.. Heintze's appointment and 1t was
understood no objection would be made
to him.. Doubtless mons would have been
made had not two other clerks been APP
pointed at the same time. The Mayor
came to the conclusion this morning that
if he was going to demand a reduction
of expenses in the water department the
best thing to do was to knock out Berger.
In vetoing the appointment, the Mayor
says he has made an Investigation and
ascertained that the department work
HI O6C dOIC well anu VII t4A&AS LII
Simon's place became vacant. There be-
ing no apparent need Of Berger's SER
vices. the Mayor says he cannot counte-
nance his employment. COMMISSIONS
Heintze wants Berger placed, but owing
to the shut OUT the combine gave
him, he will doubtless vote to sustain the
Mayor.
The Mayor also vetoed the appointment
Of Charles Freeland and John c. Swee-
ney as extra clerks in the water depart
ment. In doing so, he writes that a lit
tie hard work will not hurt the large
clerical force Of that department. Hauck,
Nolan and Smith want Sweeney and Free
land to go to work. They will vote to
override the Mayors veto. 1t requires
four votes to override a veto. Hope is
being entertained that Heintze can be
won over if Hauck, Nolan and smith
pledge themselves to vote to override the
Berger veto. If they do that they will
demand of Heintze that he vote with
them on the Freland-Sweeney veto. In
the disposition of vetoes Hetntze ana
Boltwood hold the deciding votes. They
will. it is expected, stand by the Mayor
oftener thar they will with the combine.
The third veto was of the appointment
of Frederick Durham, engineer OF con-
structicn, at 81. 400 a year, and two gem
eral utility men at $50 a month. These
appointments were made at the instance
of Chief Engineer Charles A. Van
Keuren. The Mayor says he sees no rea-
son for increasing the working force and
consequently the expense OF the Engl-
neering Bureau.
All three vetoes were laid over, under
the rules.
The Mayor has a rod in pickle for the
Street and Water Commissioners. he
purposes bringing about a reduction OF
expenses in the water department, he
says, no matter how much trouble 1t Gre
