AFTER MDONoUGH's SHOES.
Men Who Want TO Succeed Hobo
kama Erratfc Recorder.

The election of a Recorder to succeed
Francis M. McDonough, of Hoboken,
whose term expires in a few months, is
beginning to occupy public attention.
There are at present three men spoken
of as possible successors to Recorder
McDonough They are ex-Mayor Edward
R. Stanton, Justice of the Peace and At
torney-at-law Lewis r. McCulloch, and
Justice of the Peace George +. Seymour.
All three men are well known and more or
less popular. Ex-Mayor Stanton needs no
introduction to the people of Hoboken:
old Hobokenites who have lived all their
lives in the city and seen it grow up and
prosper. Though he is nearly fifty years
old he does not look more than thirty
five, and has host of friends in the city.
He has never sought to conceal the fact
that he is in the field against McDon-
ough The fact that he has always acted
in McDonough S absence and thoroughly
understands the methods of procedure OF
the court, is considered by many a cir
cumstance very much in his favor az a
recommendation for the office.
Justice George F. Seymour is as Well
known as either of his rivals. He has
done business as a Justice of the Peace
for many years, and has made many
friends. His position as captain of Com
pany M strengthens him to a very marked
degree as there is little doubt that the
majority of the members of the company
would not only vote for him themselves,
but would influence their friends in his
favor 1t is expected that he will make a
good run.
Recorder McDonough, in the meantime,
keeps on never mindfng. He has now held
the position SO long that he considers de-
feat out of the question.

Property Owners Oppose Change
Of Motive Power on Grove
Street Unless the
City Is Paid.

The hearing of citizens and others in
terested in the application of the North
Hudson County Railway Company to
change it's motive power on the Grove
street line from that of horse to cleo
tricity began in the Assembly Chamber
at the City Hall at two O'Clock this after
noon. Quite a number of citizens were
present Some OF the Grove street prop
erty owners were represented by Coun-
sellor Joseph Anderson, who also repre-
sented the Merchants Protective Asso-
citation. Counsellor William D. Edwards,
representing the company, was present.
President Myies Tierney was also on
hand.
The tenor of Counselor Anderson's s
speech showed that the property owners
he represented welcomed the change, but
opposed the granting of the privileges
asked for unless the city was properly
compensated. They believed that the city
should be given at least five per cent. of
the gross earnings of the company, and
that the privilege should not be granted
for a longer term than thirty years.
Mr.. Anderson read letters from Louis
" Boraem and others to that effect. The
Mayor was among the listeners and was
asked to come inside the rail, but excused
himself, saying that he would have to
leave early.

NO GREEN GOODS HERE
Chief Murphy Discovers That
the Rhode Island Jays
Were Robbed in Long
Island City.

Chief Of Police Murphy this morning
made a statement in refutafion of a
charge that green goods men are operat-
ing or were operating in Jersey City
"On December 27 last" he said, "a dis
patch from Pawtucket, r. l., was pub
lished broadcast throughout the country
saying that two men residing in that city
had been swindled in Jersey CITY by
green goods men,
Il wrote to Chief Randall H. Rice, of
Pawtucket, asking that the victims OF
this old game be interviewed and full
statement of their visit to the green goods
men procured. Chief Rice was asked to
have the countrymen describe minutely
just where they went after leaving home
and If possible to describe the joint where
the trick was turned"
CHIEF Murphy a few days ago got a
lengthy communication from Pawtucket
giving the whole story as follows !,
William Hutchins and his friend and
neighbor Joseph Phaney, who live on the
outskirts OF Pawtucket, received the old
fashioned green goods circular some time
ago and concluded to come on and make
some easy money. The followed direc-
tions and came by train to Port Chester,
N. Y, where they were met by steerer
at the Port Chester Hotel who took
them to the Grand Central Depot in New
York, where they took an elevated rail-
road to the ferry When they got on
the boat the steerer told them they We're
in Jersey City. They put up at hoteI
there. Next morning the same man who
met them at Port Chester called for
them and took them up and down streets
and alleys and crossed the Long Island
Railroad until they came to wharf, on
which were a lot of ashes and other rub
bish dumped; when they went into
two-story frame building painted green
with a saloon on first floor and an old
fashioned lamp post outside; they We're
taken upstairs over the saloon and robbed
of their money.
ssOn this information I sent Detective
Doyle over to Long Island City to ind
where the jays had been done up. The
detective had no difficulty at all in locat-
ing the joint
Chief Murphy says he has no sympathy
with jays who come on to buy green
goods, as they believe they are going to
buy counterfeit money and intend to
carry it home and pass it on their friends
The Chief says he has taken all this
trouble to satisfy the people of this city
that the publication of this story from
Pawtucket is only another case where
Jersey City has to stand for all manner
of false accusations published about her.
1t is an old trick of the green goods men
and other such confidence swindlers to
mislead their victims as to where they
are when they are doing them up so as
to prevent a come back tracing the
police to the Joint.

STRAY DOG CAUSES TROUBLE.
Poandmaater Kiiienger Acquitted OF
q Oharee of AseauIt.

Charge of Assault.
A case in which a German poundmasteri
a dog whose nationality or breed was not
disclosed, a French gentlemen who owned
the dog and two German ladies, one mid
dle-aged and the other young, were in
volved were tried in the General Sessions
Court today. The defendant was Casper
killenger who holds the exalted position
of poundmaster in West Hoboken. He
was tried for assault and battery on JOS t :
dog. The vital point in the case was
whether the dog was in North Bergen at
the time he was captured or just across
the line in West Hoboken. If he was in
North Bergen the poundmaster, of course,
had no jurisdiction, but if he was in West
Hoboken he was Killenger's legitimate
prey. The testimony, and there was a
great deal of it injected into the case, was
very conflicting on that point.
Vallin told his story first with the as
sistance of Interpreter Emil Steger On
August 25 Vallin was sitting peaceably on
the front stoop of his house at the Boule-
ward and Highpoint avenue, North Ber-
gen. and the dog was frolicking on the
Sidewalk not dreaming of danger vallin
said that the poundkeeper's son and as
sistant suddenly doomed up and a moment
@n t5e esf aqg
Vallin hastened to the rescue. He seized
one end of the dog, the boy seized the
other end, and a tug Of war ensued, much
point in the contest Killenberger, realizing
that his son was handicapped, went to his
assistance, and according to Vallin's
story he knocked Vallin down and went
away in triumph with the dog.
The witnesses for the defence testified
that the dog was in front of Kohler's
butcher shop just inside of the West Ho-
boken line, when the poundmaster pounced
on him, tied a handkerchief around his
neck, and turned him over to his son.
Killenger denied that he assaulted VAL
lin. He said he arrested the dog, and
that he only prevented Vallin from throw
ing stones at the boy. Vallin fell up a hill
and the poundmaster fell alongside of
him. The defendant was acquitted.

HOBoKEN LAWYER ACCUSED.
Mrs. Phelps Complains That Her
Divorce Suia lis Delayed.

Mrs. Anna c. Phelps, of No. 253 Dean
street. Brooklyn, was in Chancery Cham
bers. in this city this morning to ask
Chancellor. McGill to discipline a Hoboken
lawyer whom she accuses of neglecting to
push her divorce suit against her hus-
band, although she has paid to him a
large retaining fee and subsequently sums
of money ranging from $35 to $50.
Mrs Phelps, who is a highly respectable
woman and at present occupying an inn
portant position in the Bell Telephone
Company, in New York City, began suit
against her husband. Austin 81. Phelps,
in May last. The petition was filed in the
Court of Chancery of the State in May
last In this petition Mrs. Phelps charges
that her husband, who was an official OF
the American Steamship and Navigation
Company, New York City, had improperly
conducted himself with a Mrs. Alice
Livingston, a young Brooklyn widow at
No 2O9 East Fourteenth street, New
York City, and at other places, Other
acts of infidelity were charged in the bill,
and the petitioner asked for an absolute
divorce This petition was filed by the
Hoboken lawyer whose name she refused
to divulge to any but the Chancellor but
nothing has since been done, except to de-
lay the case.
Mrs. Phelps was not able to obtain an
interview with the Chancellor in court,
but left for His Honors private office to
seek some redress for her grievances.
Her husband has filed an answer to the
suit. in which he denies all of his wifes
charges and asserts that she wilfully de-
serted him without any cause.

WHY MR.. JANSEN WAS DEFENDANT
MIR. Kempen Says EEe Was Too Fa-
milfar with Mrs. Kempen.


When Alfred Jansen was arraigned be-
fore Recorder McDonough of Hoboken
this morning he wore green shade over
his eye He looked as if he should have
been the complainant, instead of defend
ant, but he occupied the last named un-
enviable position. He had been charged
by William Kempen, saloon keeper, of
No. 1872 River street, with having as
saulted him late on Saturday night.
Kempen is brawny, big German, and
asserts that he and his wife separated,
several months ago, by mutual consent
as they had become tired of each other $
company He claims to have ascertained
that Jansen had been too free in his at
tentions to Mrs. Kempen. On Saturday
night the wife of Jansen called upon
Kempen and informed him that Mrs
Kempen and Jansen were together at No.
106 Ferry street, where Mrs Kempen now
resides with her three children, the eldest
of whom is ten years Old
kempen obtained the services of "a
friend, Henry Holm, of No. 112 Garden
street, and together they proceeded to the
Ferry street house.
Kempen stationed his friend at the

knitting. The two older boys were quiet
ly sleeping in bed and were awakened
While they were being questioned, Holm
who was on guard, came in with Jansen
by the scruff of the neck.
What happened then is somewhat prob
lematical. Kempen says that when he
asked for an explanation from Jansen
the latter biffed him several times. That's
why he had him arrested.
Jansen claims that he had no evil in
tention in being in the house and as
serts that he was assaulted by Holm
and Kempen.
When a reporter called to see Mrs.
Kempen, this morning, she was not visi-

Late this afternoon Jansen was re-

M'KINLEY A TRAITOR.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10, 1S9S.-Senator
Chandler had a conference with Presi-
dent Mckinley today upon the subject OF
bimetallism and he said after the close
of the interview
'"The President stands firmly in favor
of international bimetallism as promised
by the ST. Louis platform. He considers
the negotiations with the European pow
ers only temporarily suspended on ac-
count of the peculiar conditions OF affalrs
in India and it is the Presidents 1nten-
ton to again send his ENJOYS to Europe
as soon as the conditions are Favorable
for continuing negotiations"
Senator Chandler added the opinion tnal
the President is as earnestly in favor OF
bime tailism-"the use of both metals as
standard money''-as the Senator himself.

SECOND WARD DEMOCRATS.
An EnterprisfnS Orga anization That
Can BE Depended Upon.

The Second Ward Democratic Club, a
fourishing organization of the northern
section of the city, held a meeting Satur-
day evening in McCooberys Hall, at Pa
vonia avenue and Erie street After the
routine business during which forty
eight proposals for membership were re-
ceived, had been transacted there was a
social session. The programme as ar
ranged by the Entertainment Committee,
proved most pleasing one. Mr.. Peter
Kane, the popular singer, sang Olcott' s
Sweet Inniscarra, and was wen re,
ceived. Mr.. Frank Spillane in his usual
comic style showed the difference between
the negro of today and that of twenty
years ago and made decided hit. The
meetings of this association will be held
on the first and third Saturday of the
month.
Among the members there are many
Democrats of the sterling type, who have
worked zealously for the cause of De-
mocracy in the past, and their advice,
coupled with their experience, will aid
materially in time of action. Addresses
were made by Mr.. P. j. Kennedy, the
president of the Mclaughlin Association
and Mr.. William C. Sweeney, whose name
is mentioned prominently as the next
Freeholder from that section.

THE NEWPORT SURVEY
Experiences Of Navy Officers
and. Nicaragua Canal
Commissioners at
Greytown.

ICorrespondence of The Associated Press.J
GREYTOWN, Nicaragua, Dec. II, lSSi.-
Delayed in transmission.)- United
States steamship Newport, Commander
Tilley in command, arrived today. 1t was
a great day for Nicaragua, for Admiral
Walker Colonel Haines and Professor
Haupt. the United States Canal Commits
sioners. were on board. The question
among Nicaraguans IS whether or not
the canal is going through. Hence the To-
cal interest.
The Commissioners brought with them
a number of engineers of all sorts ana
descriptions, including large hydograph-
ic party under the direct command OF
Lieutenant G. C. Hanus, U. S. n These
last mentioned, consisting of six commits
stoned officers and sixteen blue-jackets,
have, on the whole, the hardest part OF
the business. The greatest obstacle to
their work has been removed. The Com
mission is about to contract With the To-
cal towing company to get the steam
launches over the bar at Harbor Point
which lies to the west of GreytoWn, the
bar to the latter place being absolutely
impracticab1e. This arrangement pre-.
cludes the possibility of a repetition OF
the awful Crossman accident, OF which
people are still talking, and which the
newspapers do not fail to mention when
ever the Nicaragua Canal comes before
the public This to the great distress of
sweethearts and wives at home, to say
nothing of it's being nonsense by the
clock.
The expedition is now encamped at La
Fe. They are using the Canal Company's $
building as a barrack. Lieutenant Hanus
is in command, and his assistants, Lieu
tenants Luby Rush and Witherspoon "a, are
helping him to temper military discipline
SO that it will appeal to common sense.
The task is not easy. However, things
are shaking down, and presently all will
know what to do. The parties will go
'sup country as they get fitted out and
the lucky ones will be those soonest done.
