let his side of the matter rest.
Herman RAIDER was asked many aues-
tions by Mr.. Saples. He testified that
when material for use in the factory was

b~earable. He said the decayed meat was

A number of other witnesses, among
them Inspector Benjamin, testified that
the factory is not what it SHOULD be.
Commissioner Walters denounced the
factory in bitter terms. He recommended
that it be closed Immediately. He said
it should be built on the back of the Hill.
Finally, on motion of Commissioner
West. the factory was ordered closed inn

Mr.. Staples at this point tried to talk
but he was stopped by President McGill.

FlREMEN TO STAND BY ENGINEERS
d. L. g. w. Employees Say They Are
Ready to Make Demands.

Judging from present indications, af-

stated in 1.-THE News the various or
CARNATIONS with which the hundreds Of
employees are affiliated have been re-

and now, according to an employee who is
in a position to know whereof he speaks,
all of the employees lave agreed to stand

men of the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western Railroad, in 1871, when the en-
gineers refused to help by quitting work,
the feeling between these two bodies has
been bitter. The Brotherhood of Fire
men declared their intention of standing
aloof from any trouble the engineers
might have, and even of filling places in
the event of a trike This trouble, it is
now said, has been smoothed over.
The employees to a man are now said
to be organized in one body and in a po-

Or. ALLEN FOR COMMISSIONER


There was an unusually small attend
ance at Pohlmann's Hall last night When
Vice President Henry Rohllfs, in the abb
sence of President Kastenhuber, called
the meeting of the Hudson City Bushes
Mems Association together, Andrew
Knox of the Viaduct Committee reported
that the committee had called on the
Street and Water Board to advocate the
construction of a viaduct from the Hud-
son City section to Hobolen, as told at
the time in 1.-THE News,
A communication from the Topographic
cal Union Label League asking the asso-
citation to see that the union label is on
its printing. was ordered received. An
invitation to attend the picnic of the
United Friends Society at Kroebefs Park,
West Hoboken, on July Is, was accepted.
Chairman Rohllfs and Secretary Black
will represent the association on that oc-
casion. Letters thanking the association
for donations of s25 were received from
Miss Katherine Johnston, superintendent
of Christ Hospital; Secretary Charles Es-
Textbook of the Jersey City Firemen's Re-
lief Association, and Secretary Gilbert p.
Robinson of the Police Mutual Aid Assoc
citation. The resignation of H. Roder, a
Central avenue druggist, was accepted.
r. C. Troll called attention to the con-
dition of New York avenue. He said
.'Since the sewer has been completed, as
far as South street, there seems TO be no
reason why the rest of the street hould
be left in it's present disgraceful condi-
ton. 1t is almost a year since work on
the sewer was begun and the street is
still impossible"
Il understand the contractor was noti-
fed not to continue the work of repaving
the street." said Secretary J. W. Black.
Besides, 1 think it would be poor policy
to repaye before the street has thorough
ly settled"
Chairman Rohllfs said he understood
that the delay in completing the paving
was due to a dispute between the trolley
and gaslight companies.
On motion of Mr.. Troll, the secretary
was directed to communicate with the
authorities asking why the work was not
completed.
A. J. Knox, in moving that the asso-
citation recommend DR.. Ulamor Allen for
appointment as one of The commissioners
on the proposed viaduct, said
st do this without DR.. Aliens knowl-
edge or consent, because | think this
association is so deeply interested IN the
viaduct matter that it is entitled to sug-
gest one of it's member to supervise the
construction of the same If 1t is 10 Dc
built. and the interest DR.. Allen mas
shown in the project from It's lnceptlon
should entitle him to this consideration.

This practice has caused the depart
