Especial to ssThe Jersey City News.'1
TRENTON, Nov. a. 1s99.-Six petitions
in bankruptcy were filed in the United
States District Court yesterday, and in
each instance the application was volun-
tary. Joseph A. Smith and Eugene H.
Poulson, both merchants. Of Newark. de-
clared that they were no longer able to
pay their debts, and resign from the race
of business owing nearly $4,000 between
them.
The men were not partners, yet neither
has penny in assets with which to
liquidate his liabilities. Smith owes s14,-
S55.os, and Poulson s15o1.7s, the greater
portion being on unpaid notes and juds-
ments secured against them In the New
York and New Jersey Courts
The other insolvents are Robert L. Har-
ris of Paterson, George H. Atwood Of
Hackensack. Frederick L. MacLean of
Jersey City and David Eastman of Plain
field.
OF the six petitioners, Harris Is the
deepest in debt, owing $2e, ,07o.91, and claim
ing s06S in assets Atwood comes next
with an indebtedness of s21, 20. and hay-
ing $3.50 with which to settle the oblfga-
tions. Eastman's application states that
he has $500 at his command and has bills
against him that will aggregate 81, ,5ss s5-
MacLean's Indebtedness totals sS,54S 81,
and he states in an afidavit that $500 is
the amount OF his assets.
These six petitions increase the number
of New Jersey bankrupts to 2sS. this being
the figure placed on the last papers re-
ceived by Clerk Cranmer yesterday after
noon. A goodly share of the applications.
however, have come from merchants and
others who failed in the hard times of a
few years back, and are now taking ad-
vantage Of the bankruptcy laws to get
rid of the claims held against them.

Mare es tke Rsssrm Eehesl Question
The refractory reform school girl con-
tinues to occupy large space IN the
public attention, and the rival methods
Of treatment still have their advocates:
The most notable news today is the con-
dition of inclpient revolt which exists IN
the Trenton institution. The young Ia
dies, who are secluded therein for the
good OF their moral health, have at
length realized that they have a large
clientage Of sympathizers on the outside
and as usual they are taking advantage
Of the hysterical opposition to severity.

We are amused to hnd In the papers
contemporaneously with the news OF THIS
impending outbreak. the letter from MISS
Adina Mitchell, Trustee OF the Wnittier
State School Of California, In which sne
tells of the success" attending tne aDol-
ishment OF corporal punishment IN tnat
institution. and speaks nysteficaiiy oi ing
cruelty. Of infiicting barbarous chastise-
ment upon girls and women. Tnis letter
is written apropos OF the whipping ques-
tion in the Hudson on 70 Refcrmatory.
We have only to say, by way OF COM
ment. that In the New York "orid
there appeared, during the summer OF
1887, page article on the Hudson Re-
formatory, describing its methods. and
making a special feature OF the fact that
no corporal punishment was allowed there
and the system was eminentiy success
ful without II. About eleven months aiter
the publication Of that article, the pres
elt scandal broke out. 1t is now known
that when that article was published the
cold douche was in free use in the school
This was pronounced both cruel and in
cffectual. and was abandoned within three
or four months In favor of spanking with

until about three months ago. Almost
immediately after it's abolition, the sue
cession Of ..smashings-out'' began.
If the truth were known, the whittier

found to have some style OF punishment
just as severe and perhaps more essen
