Court of Pardohs Will Be In
voked to Set Him Free
Cunniff's Case.

The Court of Pardons will meet in Jer-
sey City on Friday e and two import
amt cases are said will be discussed The
first is that of william Cunniff, sentenced
to twenty years imprisonment for MUIR
dering his wife, by throwing a lighted
lamp at her. The crime took place eight
years ago, and Cunniff has served more
than seven years in Trenton State prison.
About Cunniff's guilt there has been
doubt. The testimony which con-
victed him came from people who were
not of a trustworthy character, and were
his personal enemies. For this reason eff
forts are being made 10 set Cunnifk free.
comes from a good family. whose con-
nections are eminently respectable. Many
prominent people have signed the petition
for his pardon.
Another case to come up, it Is said, VIII
be that of Philip B~indernagle, ex-Free-
holder and proprietor of the notorious
.~,ittle Monte Carlo at Weehawken,
who was convicted for maintaining a
gambling resort, and sentenced by Justice
I,iupincott to twelve months imprison-
ment and $1,000 fine. Bi~ndernagle's friends
contend that he was lot responsible for
what took place in a building leased by
him to another, and that he has already
suffered enough for a misdemeanor
which in other States is no crime at all.
Besides these two cases there will be a

L~oUDENSLAGER WINS.
The Congressman Gets Two-Thirds
of the Delegates in His District.

CAMDEN, July 10. 1s9s-Advices from
all the unit OF the First Congression-
al district show that the Republican pri-
mary elections last night resulted in the
selection Of an overwhelming majority of
delegates for Congressman Loudenslager,
who is a candidate for a fourth term. In
Camden county not q single opposition
delegate was elected, and the 115 votes
will be cast solidly for Loudenslager.
In his own county. Gloucester. the Con-
gresham has about 20 of the IS delegates.
Salem county is almost solid for Louden-
slayer. n he has a majority of he dele
gates in both Cumberland and Cape May.
His friends claim today that he has at
least t~wo-thirds of the delegates in the
district. His chief opponent, on whom the
opposition will rally, is Mayor Hildreth,
Of Cape May. The convention will be held
at Cape May on Thursday.

Mr.. McEwan ON Water.

Mr.. Thomas McEwan has taken a brief
rest from his Congressional duties 10
write another letter on the water ques-
ton. We print it in another column.
we confess we fail to see just whittier
Mr.. McEwan is drifting in his remark
able contributions to the literature OF
this subject. AS near as we can make
out, he considers that the Morris Canal
owns every drop of water in the State,
at least to the extent of preventing any
other company from purveying it to Jer-
sey City. Mr.. McEwan therefore desires
the municipality to adopt, by popular
vote. the Act of 1876, and then call upon
the Canal to supply the needed water
itself. If the Canal refuses to do this,
Mr.. McEwan thinks, all its rights will
be forfeited by "disuser."
Unfortunately Mr.. McEwan is in a mi
nority of one against all the other law
yers in the State as to the powers cons
ferred by the Act of 1876. All the others
consider thai it would not give Jersey
City the right to "call the hand of the
Canal Company in any such way as he
suggests. And even if it did, the aver
age business man will be apt to think
that the Canal Company could retain
mastery of the situation and prevent the
forfeiture of which Mr.. McEwan speaks,
by simply setting too high a price upon
its water for the city to pay 1t. If the
Company owns the water In any sense,
presumably nobody can compel 1t to sell
below its own figure.
We really do not mean to be unkind;
but we fail to see any possible good in
Mr.. McEwan's interference in this mat
ter. 1t seems to us only to embarrass
the city authorities in the work which
they have undertaken. 1t increases the
difficulty of making a contract, because
IT tends to arouse public suspicion and to
give the obstructives fighting material.
Thus it gives aid n comfort to the
East Jersey Water Company, which does
not want any contract, being well con-
tented with the present temporary ar
rangement.
II the city cannot make a contract along
the present lines, would it not be as
wen for Mr.. McEwan to let the inter-
ested opponents find out the fact for

COLUMBIA PARK.
Work Progressing Rapidly on
Greenville's Breathing
Spot.

Although only three more working
days of the contract remain for the COM
pletion of Columbia Park, in Greenville,
it is quite safe to say that the residents
of Celeryville will not enjoy that breath
July 1G, the contract ends. but the com
tractor, Michael Connolly. has asked for
an extension of time, which will be grant
ed him. The improving of this park re-
quires~ probably twice the labor the aver
age person would think it would The
contract called for about 1900 square
yards of earth filling, but already over
5000 square yards of dirt have been
dumped there, and many more are need
ed before the holes will be sufficiently
filled up to enable the work of leveling to
be started.
There is a decided slope to the site
which runs northwesterly, towards the
Boulevard. To provide for the draining
of the walks, a number Of small drain
pipes will be laid. The park is about 73o
feet long, running from the southeast
to the northwest, and about 100 feet in
the other direction. After the leveling
process has been completed, the sods viii
be laid and three drinking fountains
erected. There will be twelve large flow
er beds scattered over the park, and in the
center will be a large ban stand. There
Will be no fountains. The walks will be
twelve feet wide, and will be of cement
four inches in thickness. Not until fall
will trees be planted. Frederick Woeck-
ner; the inspector, said that the work was
being lone thoroughly. but that the peo-
pie had no idea of the amount of labor
required to improve the park site.
The petition which the property owners
Of that section circulated for the extern
sion of the park site, was handed in this
morning. and those behind the movement
are confident that the Street and Water
Commissioners will act favorably upon
it. The petition calls for the extension
of the present site to the Boulevard, a
distance of about one hundred yards. An
opening on the Boulevard is la they
are after, as they say the park when COM
pleted will be anything but beautiful,
being hemmed in by property and houses
on each end. The entire block between the
Boulevard and Old Bergen Road is what
should be improved for the park, they
say. There are hundreds of names to the
petition
