CONQUERED -------

The yellow fever situation at the
Soldiers Home was unchanged yesl.er-

the disease has been conquered by the
physicians having charge of the sltua-

is said to be from five to ten DAYS,
there is every reason to believe that no

being maintained, but it is very likely
that the next ten days will see it lifted.
There are now ninety men doing guard
duty on the line, and with the strict re-!
strictions enforced on the inside OF the
Home, it is absolute folly for any of
the veterans to attempt to leave the
reservation.
Dr. j. II. White, of the Marine Hos
pital Service. who has been in charge
lIere since the fever made it's appear

turn again. It is understood he has

who possesses those qualifica tions that
go to make up the Southern gentleman,

THAT SCHOOL BILL
Senator Stokes Threw Down
the Gauntlet to It's OPP
ponents.
STATE EDUCATORS MET
Organized This Morning in
the Senate Chamber and
Discussed No. 1877.


Especial to ssThe Jersey City News
TRENTON, Dec. 10, 1888. Representa-
tives of the various educational Boards
of the State and the County Superin-
tendents met in the Senate Chamber this
morning ostensibly to form a State or
ganization but in reality to jump on the
so-called Stokes school Dill. Every coun-
ty in the State was well represented.
H. Brewster Wills Of New Brunswick
was chosen chairman and J. 3. Belts of
the State Board secretary. Governor
VOORHEES, made an address of welcome.
Senator Stokes threw down the gaunt-
let to the opponents of his Commissions s
work In lengthy speech. He said that
there was a necessity for a revision of
the school laws. no one would deny. The
Commission, when appointed, consulted
the school laws of every State of any
educational standing and the result was
the report which was submitted to the
Legislature last year This did not em-
brace any one law or scheme but con-
tained three distinct plans for the Leg
islature to choose from. 1t was submit
ted too late for consideration however
It died with the Legislature and there
is now nothing before that body. The
Commission had invited criticism but the
report had not been criticised but mis-
represented The attacks upon 1t had
been malicious and partisan The only
object the Commission had in view was
to form a law which would make New
Jersey the leading educational State in
the Union.
This afternoon the opponents of the re-
port will reply to Mr.. Stokes.

ONLY Did THEIR DUTY
Yesterdays Fire Heroes Ex-
pect No Recognition.

Two OF the families burned out in the
Hoboken tenement fire, at No. 11S Jeffer-
son street early yesterday morning APP
piled to Poormaster Harry Barck today
for assistance. The gutted building was
the home of seven families, all of whom
lost everything they had in the flames.
The Poormaster says the city will prob
ably provide new homes for all the fire
victims. There is always enough money
In the poor fund to ASSIST the destitute OF
Hoboken, = said he this morning, but the
city would be saved many thousand dol
lars annually If poor people would only
take the precaution to carry insurance
Insurance on household effects can be had
for the small sum of two cents week.
We have tried to educate the people
to this but our counsel evidently has
not been given the attention 1t should re-
ceive."
Discussing the rescues made by the
members of the police department, Chief
Charles Donovan this morning said: THE
newspapers made the men who figured
in the fire heroes. They probably were
but we all say that they only did their
duty as Hoboken policemen always do.
AS far as know, no honor medals will
be awarded"
Fire Chief WINS D. Applegate had the
same thing to say as Chief Donovan
'aThe firemen did their duty" he said
.sand they are satisfied with knowing
that they did SO. They neither want nor
expect more.
