OUTRAGE ON LAW.
Frivolous Federal Appeal Acts as a
stay of OltHford,n ExaculiOn.

AS briefly told in ''The News Of yes
terday, a new lease of life has Deen
granted to Edward Clifford by proceed
ings before Judge Kirkpatrick, of the
| United States District Court at his cham
bers in Newark. Clifford was to have
/ been hanged on Wednesday mex for the
murder of Division superintendent Will
lam G.. Watson, of the West Shore Rail-
road. Ever since he was convicted Of the
murder his friends have beenI working
earnestly in his behalf, and nothing has
| been left undone to save him from the
| gallows.
His attorneys, former Judge William
Hoffman, William H. Speer, c. j. Peshall
and j. J. Furey, went te Newark yester-
day to make a final appeal before Judge
Kirkpatrick for the postponement of the
execution. They first applied for a writ
of habeas corpus for Clifford, which was
denied by the Court. Then an appeal
| was made and allowed to the Supreme
Court by the United states in Washing
ton.
According to the statutes of the United
States an appeal of this sort in capital
cases acts as a stay of execution. Argyll
ment will not be heard on the appeal until
October, and Clifford will be safe until
then. By that time Clifford's counsel
hope to have some definite plan of action
prepared, and every effort will be made 10
secure Federal interference in his behalf.
Lawyer Peshall stopped at the County
Jail on his way back from Newark and
impaired the news to Clifford. The con-
demned man was very much pleased and
warmly thanked Mr.. Peshall and the other
lawyers who are interested in the case.
The appeal is r~eturnable in the United
| States Supreme Cour in Washington st
the October term, but will probably not
be reached for argument before the fol-
lowing January. That gives Clifford an
other lease of life for eight or perhaps
ten months. 1t is unnecessary TO say
that Sheriff Heller is very much pleased
to be relieved from the disagreeable duty
of hanging Clifford next Wednesday,.

A DRILLING RIDE
Exciting Experience of californian on 8
burning Hay Wagon.


What was the most exciting exper-
fence / ever had?' repeated a California
gentleman, as he jerked his chair a
little nearer the comfortable CRATE at the
Gun Club. 81 think it occurred last
summer, when I was hunting doves up
in Sonome county. Now, hunting doves
is not particularly exciting or perilous,
but this was one of the hottest exper-
fences I ever had. I had been travel
ing all day with a big bag and was
pretty tired out when I struck the county
road and started for home. 1t was a good
four miles walk, and l was pretty well
pleased to see a. big wagon load of hay
approaching. The driver gave me permits
sion to ride, so | scrambled up on top, lay
down on the sweet, new mown hay and
went sWaying and swinging down the
road. l was just doing off when bang!
went my shotgun. [ had forgotten to take
the cartridges out of 1t, and something,
had pressed the trigger. The horses gave
a jump. and the driver rolled off into
the ditch.
set fire to the hay, and I thought it was
about time for me to escape. The horses
We're tearing along the road as hard as
sfds 81 doH tbe i Eand a on5 s ! fFa dff fer the 5ef ro 1ne
The tail of my stout hunting coat caught
on the top of a high standard. and there
I hung to the careening wagon, that
threatened at every turn of the o to
upset and dump a lot of burning hay on
me. The fire was burning and cracking
fiercely, and already I could feel the
flames. Still the horses ran and still my
coat held me fast to hat seething mass
of flames. My trousers commenced get
ting hot, and then l found my coat on
fire.
1.-The next moment the loose cartridges
in my pockets commenced exploding from
the heat, and then / smelled my doves
broiling. l had just made up my mind
that all was over when the tail of my
coat burned off and | was thrown into
a ditch full of water beside the road.
/ did not stop to see what became of the
hay and horses, nor of the rancher, but
cut straight across the field for home.
That, gentlemen, was the most thrilling
experience of my life."-Exchange.

HoBOKEN CITY TREASURES TERM
Mayor Pagan Tells h Common
Council 1t Expires This spring.

The members OF the HODoken COmmO
Council held a session last night and
transacted several routine matters.
Mayor Pagan sent a communication To
the Board directing that the office of City
Treasurer expire this spring. James
Smith, who is the present incumbent, was
elected two years ago by the people for a
five years term, and claims he has three
years to serve. Chairman Weinthal said
that he thought the office covered a per-
iod of five years. The chairman said
that it would be no harm to have the
matter sent to the Corporation Counsel,
James F. Minturn.
Mayor Pagan sent a veto to the Board
disappearing of a claim submitted by ex-
Judge Paxton of the District Court. The
veto is as follows:-
Mayors Office,
Hoboken, n. j., March I, 1873.
To the Council
Gentlemen return without my APP
proval the claim of E. I. Paxton for
services in ~disposing of cases tried
before him in the District Court, and
decided after his term as Judge mad
expired. l lave no evidence or IN
formation before me from which l
can judge that Mr.. Paxton spent three
days on the consideration OF these
cases, all of which were tried before
him while in office. | cannot bring
myself to believe that it took three en-
tire days to determine each, OF these
petty cases, and until l have some
proof upon that subject, my sense OF
duty to the taxpayers obliges me TO
~disapprove of such an expenditure.
Aside from his l believe that the act
under which this claim is made is un-
constitutional.
Respectfully yours,
LAWRENCE PAGAN, Mayor.
Judge Paxton claims that under the law
he is entitled to payment for sucn SER
vices.
The following resolution was sent in by
Counsel J. McGovern:=
Whereas, AT a recent meeting of this
Council, the Tax Payers Association,
represented that one official ape
should be enough for TINS city
ceedings, and that economy de-
mands the use of but one paper for
that purpose, and the Council having
fully considered the matter; therefore
Resolved. That the resolution passea
at the session of the Common Coufcll,
December 80, 1872, the oD-
official newspapers to print the Goun-
ell proceedings, ordinances and all adj
refreshments at rates liked by law, be

Resolved. That the observer a

AGAINST EXPANSION THEORY.
Strong Opinion Expressed at Home
 Market Clubs Meeting.

Boston, Nov 16.-The annual meeting of the Home Market club, the largest organization of it's kind in the United States, was held here to-day. The ses- sion was particularly interesting owing to discussion of the question of na- tional expansion by Colonel Albert Clarke, secretary of the club, in his an- nual report. Colonel Clarke considered the question from an economical stand point and said: Tt is greatly to be hoped that President Mckinley will so frame his treaty of peace with Spain as to minimize the dangers and responsi- bllities which we must assume as the result of the war;
 In the course of further consideration of the question Colonel Clarke said: "On October IS, at the quarterly meet ing of our officers, all the New England states being represented. there were many strong expressions of personal opinion against the policy known as na- tional expansion, and there was no ex-. pression in it's favor Some think that our opposition is because expansion and protection will not be good yoke-fel- IoW' IllaI VIII uepeiu upon now lile new acquisitions are treated
 If we must have an expansion policy, and it must take a form of annexation and territorial government, how can the party which has always favored pro- lection to American labor ever again look the Workingman in the face? We do not oppose, but we favor, the finding of foreign markets We are gaining them constantly. Hitherto the conquest has been peaceful. The best of them are in countries which are self-govern- ed and for which we have to assume no responsibility and bear no expense. We can continue to increase our trade in those countries, but we can gain vastly more by preserving the conditions of domestic prosperity and cultivating the home market with equal care. Let us do both.''
