Mr.. Hopkins, in the chair. at this
point, announced that he was ready to
rule. The necessity for the appropria-
ton, he said, did not arise until the oc-
casion for the appropriation had taken
place. He was therefore, reluctantly
compelled to sustain the point of order.
Mr.. Williams, dem. Miss, thereupon
appealed from the decision. A spirited
and somewhat acrimonious debate fol-
lowed on the appeal. The chair was
sustained. 149 to Sc, and the paragraph
went out
Thereupon Mr.. Cannon asked unani-
nous consent that the paragraph be
considered as adopted. This was for
the purpose of locating definitely re-
sponsibilty for failure to get the appro-
priation in the bill
Mr.. Wheeler promptly objected, After
the reading of the bill had been COM
pleted and the committee had risen,
Mr.. Hepburn. rep, Ia, moved to re-
commit the bill with instructions to
report back the bill with the Nicaragua
canal bill incorporated in it.
Mr.. Cannon raised the point of order
that the motion was out of order. and
was promptly sustained by the speaker.
''On what grounds asked Mr.. Hep

Upon the grounds that it seeks to
accomplish indirectly what could not
be done directly in committee of the

Mr.. Hepburn appealed from the de-
cision, and Mr.. Payne, rep, N. Y,
moved to table the appeal. The yeas

was called. This motion was made by
Mr.. Hepburn to force the members up

speaker, under the rules, ordered a call

at 6:10 p. m. the house adjourned.

MURPHY ON M,INTYRE.
Says a Man Can Be Both a Christian
and a Policeman

In talking of the Mcintyre resignation,
this morning, Chief of Police Murphy
said:-"Thc idea that a Christian does
not make an excellent police officer is all
wrong. The fact of the matter is a po-
liceman. with a religious education.
makes the best officer. He shows better
judgment and can conduct himself as a
gentleman at all times.
Take our department, for instance, and
it numbers over three hundred men,
continued the Chief. You won't find a
more religious lot Of men and men who
attend to their church duties better than
do our policemen. 1 do not say that they
are religious maniacs, nor do l say they
are constantly In attendance at church
when off duty. What 1 do say is that
they regularly attend church and are
benefited by it.
Why" the Chief continued, 1--WE have
men in our department who have occu-
pied pulpits. In New York, one of the
Sergeants inc several of the patrolmen
are Salvation Armyists. 1t is no disgrace
for a policeman to be a church member,
and the better one he Is the better police
man he will make"

WAITING FOR BLAIR
Zabriskie Decides to Hear No Ar
rumer4s ON His Last Day.

Application was made to Judge zabris-
kie this morning by Counselor Fallon for
a writ of habeas corpus On behalf of
Hans Siegel, who was convicted of being
drunk and disorderly and sentenced to s25
fine or 30 days in the County P~enitentiary
by Justice Oscar Schlichting of Hoboken.
Seigel refused to pay the fine and is now
serving his term. Mr.. Fallon urged that
the law did not give a justice. even When
acting as Recorder, the right to impose
an alternative sentence, and that the law
did not authorize hard labor for the Of
Tense charged. Nj. Fallon raised a num-
Der Of other points.
Assistant Prosecutor Van Wrinkle sug-
gested that the mater lay over until to-
morrow when Judge Blair would be in
court. Judge zabriskie so decided, saying
that it was his last day and that he would
not feel warranted in hearing an argu-
ment at this time By mutual consent
the mater went over until tomorrow.

School No. 20 Bids.

The erection of a new School No. 20
has already been so long delayed that a
week or two more or less can make lit
tie difference now. There is no way by
which the building can be made avail
able much before the opening of the fall
term OF 1900. Presumably, it will take
nine months to complete the structure
and furnish it, and even if work were
begun tomorrow, it would not be ready
for occupancy until June, when the
schools are on the point Of closing
OF Finance is justified in proceeding de-
liberately in respect to the award of the
building contract. The price demanded
by the lowest bidder, $152, coo. is a very
large sum of money. As it is by far the
largest sum that has been spent in this
city on a school building, it is natural
that IT should be made the subject of
thorough elaboration.
We are by no means opposed to the
payment OF THIS price-lr IL IS necessary
we are entirely hostile to the erection of
sncommodious. unsafe and unsightly
buildings. We believe that the city is
able to pay for what is good, and hat
the truest economy in the long run is to
buy the best OF everything. stil, in the
present case, the question is whether it
ss necessary to pay so much money to
get what the city needs. The Free Pub
lie Library, a magnificent specimen Of
architecture, and a freproof structure of
unusual strength and completeness, is
only costing about s1so.ooo. and it covers
more ground and provides more floor
space than the new school.
The Board of Finance should hear
everyone who can throw light on the
subject If necessary 1t should take ex-
pert advice. It should unhesitatingly pro-
vide the money If the bid now pending is
to the advantage of the city, but II
should peremptorily refuse to do SO If the
needed accommodation can be secured at
. more moderate expenditure

FOOLED FREEBOOTER KENNY.
His Friends Stole His Watch Charm,
and Claimed Reward.

Freebooter NJ. J. Kenny lost a valuable
gold watch chain early yesterday after
noon. and he was considerably worried
as to it's whereabouts. He did not real
searched high and low for It, but failed to
him. He secured three bootblacks who
are employed about the corner OF Pavonla
avenue and Grove street, and giving each
one dollar started them on a hunt for
the missing ornament. The blacks
searched high andlow for 1t, blu failed to
find 1t. At dark the search was aban-
doned. The F%reeholder was disguised.
Mr.. Kenny, after telling a reporter
about his Joss. left about $50 last night
to attend a meeting of the Robert Davis
Association. 1t was while at this meet
ing that the Freebooter told his friends Of
his loss. He said tina he was willing to
pay a reward for the return of the chain.
His friends began to laugh at Kenny's
predieament. The Freholder became
suspicious. and as he was about to leave
the clubhouse ex-Director Quinn of the
Board of Education followed him.
Il know who has the charm" said MI.
Quinn.
who has it?" asked Kenny.
viii You treat if I put you next?'
asked Quinn.
"Come on, said the Freebooter, as he
took Mr.. Quinn by the arm and started
down stairs to the restaurant.
"a quart BOTTLE ordered Mr.. Quinn.
Bring 1t in" said Mr.. Kenny to the
waiter.
After the contents Of the quart had been
disposed of, Director Quinn innocently
drew the charm from his pocket and
handed it to the Freebooter. SAYING .
ssMy boy be more careful in the future"
On his return to the Horseshoe Mr..
Kenny had the charm tucked away UNI
der his vest, so as to fool the friends who
had been made aware OF the Joke, but it
did not work.

We do not think Mr.. Bryan will gain
much BY this desertion of his colors. He
stands for free coinage at 16 10 l. II not
for this. Their for nothing. His abandon
ment of the fight for free silver" will
disgust and estrange the element which
he has ~hypnotized upon that basis. They
cannot but feel that he is a coward and
q renegade and a time server. if he gives
up the principle" for which he had
pledged himself to go through every ex-
tremity. On the other hand, Mr.. Bryan
will make no friends among the honest
money Democrats They will not believe
in the ~thoroughness or the sincerity OF
his conversion. Indeed his stiffness will
have a bad effect on their minds, for a
man who gives up n cause so easily
can hardly be relied upon to stand by an
other with any too great fidelity.
The planks which Mr.. Bryan proposes
are neither all good nor all bad. The In
come tax idea is abstractly good but al
most impracticable. The election of Unit
ed States Senators by the people is a
colorless proposition. No enthusiasm can
be aroused over 1t. Indeed there is so
much to be said on both sides of the
question tha it is hard for anyone to
make up his mind. AS a reform, 1t may
be assumed, the result would be insignif-
cant.
Then there is the antitrust proposal
This, II 1t meant the enactment of a
tariff which would Expose the trusts to
the competition Of the world, would be
most wise and sound. If it means legis-
Alation to prevent combination of capital
on a large scale it IS not only impossible
of realization but most unwise and in
furious. 1t is to urn back the wheels
OF time, and reject the advantages of
modern civilization. We do not believe
that the astutest lawyer living could
frame a statute which would really pre-
vent combination in business, and If he
did he would simply be robbing the peo-
pie Of cheap and abundant supplies OF
the necessaries and the adornments of
life.
As a platform maker, MI. Bryan is not

So MI. Cook Has No Trouble
Feeding State Industrial
School.
Especial to ssThe Jersey city News.sl

Especial to The Jersey City News."1
TRENTON, Sept. 7, 1S99.-Under the abb
solute control of Managing Trustee
Ephraim Rezeau Cook, affairs at the
State Industrial School for Girls are rum
ming along smoothly. Mr.. Cook and the
matron, Mrs. Eyler, have now no one to
interfere with them in their management
of the institution. and they are at liber-
ty to adopt any method they see fit TO
control the children in the school.
Governor Voorhees,. after making two
appointments to form a nucleus for the
new board of managers, came to a sud-
den halt, and up to the present time
shows no inclination of naming n
others. The new appoiutees, Howell G.
stull and John D. Rue, are at present
mere igureheads on the board, which has
not sufficient members to transact any
business, or take any part in the affairs
Of the school.
Mr.. Cook fairly revels in now being the
undisputed and absolute head Of the in
stitution, and every day that passes con-
vinces him more strongly that 1t makes
no difference whether any more menu
bers are appointed or not. In fact, Mr..
| Cook says that he is perfectly able TO
| continue in charge of the school as long
as it may be necessary.
The only embarrassing feature OF his
| solitary rule is that there are no funds
| available to meet the current expenses OF
the school, there being no board OF man
ayers, consequently no treasurer.
This circumstance however, does not
trouble Mr.. Cook. who does the buying
for the school for he finds hat the States
credit Is good. and there are a half-dozen
or more wholesale grocers in the city
willing to furnish all the supplies needed
whether there Is any money in sight OF
not.
Among the grocers are D. P. Forst &
Co. OF which ex-senator Skirm is the
principal partner. Incidentally Mr.. Skirm
is ardently c~hampioning Mr.Cook's cause
and. Of course, would not allow a little
thing like a few groceries for $50 women
and girls to embarrass the managing
trustee. Mr.. Skirm's store is packed hign
with all kinds Of produce, and the State
through Mr.. Cook, could doubtless have
it all should it be needed.
A rumor is being persistently c~irculat-
ed that Senator Skirm, instead Of Cover
nor Voorhees,, is the one who is naming
] the new BodFQ u AdiidSSiSs LIN =
given to this by the fact that the two
| already named are both very close friends
of the ex-senator, while he has held nu-
merous and earnest conferences with the
! Governor during the Industrial School
troubles.
A Republican politician who stands close
to skirm today predicted that a skirm
board would be appointed. with the
result that Mrs. Eyler will be retained
at the school without more than a per
functory investigation OF her ALLEGED
wr~ong-doings. if, indeed, there is even SC
much as a semblance OF an Investigation
Governor Voorhees, is not expected al
| the state House this week, and It is not
anticipated that he will make any new
| appointments until he comes here
Mrs. Eyler has completely recovered
from the recent illness that delayed ner
arrest.
