FINE ROW IN PROSp ECT.
U. S. Grant Association Scraps
for Officers.

There promises to be an exciting time
this evening at the meeting of the U. S.
Grant Association. Tonight is the date
set for the nomination of officers who are
to serve next year.
There are now two factions in the club,
caused by the recent election of County
Committeeman. A few members were
laboring under the impression that WIFE
liam Burns did not just suit them as
committeeman, and as q result Mr.. AL
fred Hargen, the secretary, announced mis-
intention of going in the race against
Burns. Burns was also victim of mis-
placed confidence as he found out after
the primaries. He thought the club was
back of him, in fact he had the word Of
nearly all the members, but he was
beaten. He said the club did not do it,
but outsiders.
II is also evident that Hargen has a
few followers in the club. for last week
when Burns proposed Mr.. Edmund Birch
for membership he was blackballed. and
Henry Petty whose name had also been
submitted. quietly requested Mr. Burns
to withdraw his name, as he saw the
same fate staring him in the face.
Some members said that Burns wanted
these two "staunch'' League members to
aid him in his future fights, and for that
reason proposed them for membership.
when names are mentioned for the vari-
Gus offices and a hot time WIN doubtless
result Not a name has been mentioned
for any Of the offices as yet.

life. to give the Landrine men credit
for the games they won. King Woolley
sat on a dais, where he could view all
his subjects, both loyal and disobedient.
He smiled on all alike-the election is
drawing near. He was not heard to roast
one of the dissenters. Smiling Johnny
Weastell was employed passing pipes and
tobacco to the players. Abraham VII
son was there, looking rather scared, 1t
is true, but enjoying himself for all that.
Captain .;Jack" Graham was also there
and actually permitted several persons,
who did not vote for him, to play euchre
in the Republican headquarters
Thomas McEwan was not there Ills

ACTION OF DIRECTORS SUSTAINED

Especial to "The Jersey City News.''}
TRENTON, Dec. 20, 1S98.-The Supreus
Court put an end for the time being to
the wrangle that has been on among ths
directors of the A A. Griffing Iron Com
pany- In an opinion by Justice Collins tho
action of a majority of the stockholders
in increasing the board of directors from
five to nine and the subsequent oustinx
by the new board of directors of Thos.
H William as president and Samuel D.
Tompkdns as treasurer is sustained.
Messrs. T. H. Williams, Tonlpkins and
George w. Conklin. three of the five di-
rectors elected at the annual meeting in
May brought the matter into court At
the time of the annual meeting the by
laws of ne corporation provided for five
directors who had power to choose
president and treasurer for one year.
Edward S. Griff1ng and Charles f. Im-
brie. the two remaining directors, on NO
venlber IS issued call for a meeting Of
the stockholders on the 23d of Novenl--
ber, and at that meeting the bylaws
We're changed and the board of directors
increased to nine As the four additional
directors, Abner A. Grifing, James L.
Ogden. Isaac Ogden and John Armstrong
were elected.
These new directors with Messrs. Griff-
ing and Imbrie, Two of the old directors,
then removed Messrs Williams and
Tompkins and Abner A Griflng was
made presideia and Edward s. Grifing
treasurer.
Justice Collins sustains the amending OF
the bylaws as all the stock was repre-
sented at the meeting at which the
change was made The opinion says
that officers of corporations have no ten
ure more than any other ministerial
officer.
IN the argument on this case which
came up before Justices Collins and Lud-
low some weeks ago. Messrs. ]. B. vre-
denburgh and Allan L. MeDermott ap-
peared for the applicants for a summary
order to Investigate the title of the dlrec-
tors elected and Aessrs. c. L. Cerbin

company.
Counselor James B. yredenburgh. in
speaking of the decision today said that

The Injunction suit pending in Chancery
will in all probability be decided next
week because Vice Chancellor Emery, be-
fore whom the rule is returnable, COR

FLYNN's CONCESSIONS.
1t IS Said He Will Grant Some
of the Demands Made
Financiers.

The Finance Commissioners are to meet
tomorrow evening. The indications are
that the award to p. H. Flynn viii be
concurred in at that time. Yesterday at
ternoon the Commissioners had two
hours conference with Corporation Coun-
sci McDermott and w. D. Edwards. couis-
sci for Flynn. The concessions demand
ed by Messrs Ringle and 8iidlige were
discussed. 1t was thought some time ago
when the concessions were first spoken Of
that their allowance might vitiate The en-
tire proposition of Flynn
There appears to be a change Of senti-
ment now, and it was semi-officiaily re-
ported This morning that the most impor-
tant Of the Ringle concessions will as al
lowed SO far as the protection of the
streams tributary to the intake from poll
luton is concerned, that point is already
settled in favor Of the city.
Corporation Counsel McDerrnott says
that Flynn and his associates will scarce
ly build a $7,oo0,0o0 water plant without
throwing every safeguard about it IN or
der to comply. with the contract in every
particular. The streams which are tri-
butary TO the proposed intake start and
run through such a wild territory that Ii
is not habitable and can never become
populated TO an extent to injure the water.
Concerning payment for the search OF the
right OF way which viii be made for The
city an agreement has been practically ar
rived at.
The only point not definitely settled is
allowing the city to have the use Of the
plant at least five years before the addi-
uonal cost of $4o0 900 is tackled on. It is
understood that Mr.. Flynn is willing TO
allow MIR. Ringle's demand on that point.
