ASPHALT FOR NEWARK AVE.
Mayor Hoos's Excellent Sug-
gestion to the Street and
Water. Commissioners.

The following communication was sent
to the Street and Water Commissioners
this afternoon
.sGentlemen-I most respectfully can
your attention to the adyisaDlaty ol
asphalting Newark avenue at least from
Warren street to Jersey avenue; jersey
avenue, from Grand street to Han1lloin Oh
Park and Gregory street, from 10TH
street to Henderson street.
'If you were to look over the Tax COM
missioners' books you would ma tnat
these sections pay more taxes to the city
than any others comprehending the same
area The merchants have rightly re
ouested the asphalting of Newark avenue.
Such an Improvement would mean much
TO them and would go great way To-
wards attracting strangers to our city.
This avenue which is the main artery 10
the Pennsylvania ferry, should he credlt
to the city.
'sWhen the sewer now being reconstruct
ed in Gregory street is completed II Will
be necessary to repave that street ana
the only pavement that should be laid Is
benefits. it would prove boon to people
driving or wheeling. The cost would pe
but a trif1e compared with the benefits
that would accrue to the city.
In the Hill residential section the city
has done much for the property holders
to enhance and beautify their surround
ings In lower Jersey City Jersey avenue
occupies the place that Bergen avenue
and others hold on the Heights. In addi-
ton to this, people going from the Erie
to the Pennsylvania ferries pass through
this avenue and form impressions about
Jersey City. The residents of this avenue
have often requested that it be asphalted,
but being more modest than many others
they have never made demands or raised
loud clamors Asphalt this avenue and
you will do much toward maintaining its
popularity as a residential section.
II urgently request your Honorable
Board to give these~matters careful con-
sideration and that you grant these Sec
tions the improvements which they need
and are entitled to.
Respectfully submitted
'sEDWAR TEOOS, Mayor"
The communication was referred at the
Boards meeting this afternoon to the
Committee on Streets.

P. R. R. ANNUAL MEETING
Stockholders Ratified the Ac-
ton of the Directors==Of-
ficers to be Reelected.

PHILADELPHIA, March 19. 1900.-The
ffty-third annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company was held here today. After the
approval of the annual report, Vice Presi-
dent John H. Green offered resolution
ratifying the action of the Board of Di-
rectors on December 13, 1899, increasing
the capital stock of the company by an
amount equal to 10 per cent. of the then
outstanding capital stock, 25S,6 shares.
The resolution also authorized the direc-
tors to sell the increased capital stock not
taken by the stockholders. The action of
the directors in issuing the shares of the
increased capital stock was approved in
the resolution, which was unanimously
adopted.
A resolution offered by Director c..
Stuart Patterson, that the minute adopt
ed by the Board of Directors on June Z,
1899, in regard to the death of Frank
Thomson, late president of the company,
be adopted as expressing the feelings of
the stockholders, was passed by a rising
vote.
The chairman was authorized to appoint
a committee of seven to select ticket for
the Board of Directors to be voted at
the next annual meeting. There is no
opposition to the present officers and no
change in the management of the com
pany is anticipated.

ENGLISH RADIcALISM.
Interesting Article by Joseph Dana
Miller. of This City.

In the current number of "The Arena"
there is an interesting article by Joseph
Dana Miller upon English Radicals and
Radicalism." It deals in an instructive
manner with the cause for and rise of
Radicalism in Great Britain, and gives
sketches of the more prominent leaders
in the movement. Among these sketches
none is of more interest than that of
Sir Charles Dixie, who, Mr. Miller says,
"ca1ls to the leading English Radical of
today" Michael Davitt, the famous Irish
Home Ruler is declared to be a Radical
in every physical and moral fibre" Par
nell. it appears, was not a radical and
he condemned the land theories of Davitt.
Scotland we learn, has contributed to the
radical cause Sir Charles Cameron, who
was made a baronet for his services in
inaugurating the six-penny telegraph sys-
tenn, and Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman
Bart. M. P, who is a large property
owner.
Nearly all of the thirty members of
Parliament from Wales are Radicals, and
David Lloyd George is one of the most
hopeful
Mr.. Miller's article is well worth read
ing and the only thing about it to be
regretted is that it appears in such a
second rate periodical as THE Arena
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1900-03-13

king, dated Monday, March 5, says the
garrison at that place are feeling acutely
the stress of the siege. They are reduced
to the use of horsefiesh and bread made
from horse forage, while the water is
parasitically contaminated Typhoid,
dysentery and iphtheria are epidemic, but
it is impossible to isolate the victims.
The sufferings of the women and children
are terrible, and there are deaths in the
women's laager daily. The native popula-
ton is starving.
The military operations progress favor
ably. They have been extended to the
brickfeIds, whence the enemy has been
completely expelled.
The strategic Importance of what IS
taken to be the practical capture of one
of the enemy's seats of government has
created little enthusiasm in London, as
for days it had been regarded as certain
that Lord Roberts would soon be at
Bloemfontein, and only a few persons
gathered around the bulletin boards this
morning. Here and there flags were dis
played, but no demonstrations marked the
receipt of the news The predominating
feafng seemed to be curiosity as to what
would be the result and surmises as to
whether the Free Staters would give in
were rife.
The rumors of the relief of Mafeking
became more circumstantian today, but
they still lacked official confirmation,
while the Mafeking despatch of March 5.
published today, plainly disposed of the
report that the besieged residents had
evacuated the place and that the Beers
had retired from Boshof
A refugee who was at Herschal says
that bitterness almost to the point of hos
tilities exists between the colonial rebels
and the Free Staters of that locality.
A number of cablegrams have been re-
ceived from Mafeking today, including
one to Birmingham firm, asking it to
ship goods Immediately, thus indicating
the belief of the speedy relief of the
place. Lady Georgiana Curzon also re-
ceived the following despatch from Lady
Sarah " llson, at Mafeking:-
Delighted to receive your cable of
February 20. All well, March l.
Lord Roberts actual entry into the
Orange Free State capital seems likely to
be delayed until tomorrow, or late today,
as his statement that he is going to rein
state General French implies tnat oppo-
sition is being encountered on the out
skirts of the town, though the definite
statement that the British cavalry leader
has positions which command the situa-
ton leaves no doubt that the occupation
will speedily be effected, and with it, so
the London critics believe, will accrue to
the British important captures of supplies
if not of prisoners. However, it may be
that the Beers may make a strenuous re-
sistance, which will not be overcome until
Lord Roberts main army catches up with
the cavalry, whose leader, as at kimber-
ley, has once more been afforder the op-
portunity of reaping glory in first reach
ing the goal.
The latter message was despatched
from Mafeking. March 4, by way of Col
onel Plumer's camp.
The indications are that Colonel Plumer
was at Lobatsi, March 9, and as it is only
81 miles thence to Mafeking, definite news
ought to be speedily forthcoming.

TRAMP HIS OWN LAWYER
Stanton Proved His Innocence
to His Own Satisfaction but
Not to That of the Court.

IT was for stealing only chicken tnat
Richard Stanton was tried in the special
Sessions Court yesterday afternoon pue
he displayed sufficient ability to oe1eiio
himself on a charge of burglary. 1he
chicken was stolen four weeks ago from
Holm ,Sheehan's coop at Nineteenth street
and Park avenue, Weehawken.
stanton is a tramp with russet Whiskers
and the general tout ensemble of a typlcal
.sWeary Willie' The circumstantlal eVl-
dence against him was very strong. MI
Sheehan met him coming out of the coop.
Stanton apologized for being there oaue
Mr.. Sheehan good-day and started on.
He had scarcely disappeared from we"
when Mr. Sheehan discovered a basket
alongside the coop with a dead rooster IN
it. The idea then dawned upon MI
Sheehan's mind that the tramp was d
chicken thief and had him arrested.
MIR. Sheehan did not desire to prosecute
the yesterday, but Assistant Frose-
cutor Van Wrinkle insisted that as ne nao
made the complaint he must follow IL up
After he had told his story Mr van
Wrinkle asked him what the rooster was
worth and Mr., Sheehan said he was worth
S. to him.
The defendant then took Mr.. Sheehan III
hand for cross-examination.
.fHow do you make out that the chicken
was worth $5?' he asked.
ST said he was worth s. to me-" replied
the witness.
WAS he fancy stock; did you use him
for breeding purposes?"
mo, but he was worth s. to me, re-
piled the witness doggedly.
The defendant questioned the witness
about the height of the coop and the
width of the door with a view to show
ing how difffcult it would be for man to
get into the coop. Then he took another
tack and asked If he had made any at
tempt to rum away. When the witness
answered no, Stanton looked at the Court
with an air which plainly said: That
proves that I'm innocent; if I was guilty
I would have run away
Stanton, in his own defence, denied that
he stole the chicken. He said that he had
lost Sl46 in New York and that he went
to Weehawken to look for work. He
sawed some wood for policeman, but
the policeman never paid him. StantSn
said he desired everybody to know that
the policeman did not pay him. Judge
