CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN SLANDERED
Republican fractional Fight Gets
Into the circuit Court.

The trial of the suit brought bv Post
master Charles Eichhorn of West Hobo
ken to recover $25,000 from George Klahr-
man, and at the same time vindication,
was begun shortly before noon today in
the Circuit Court. The plaintiff charges
the defendant with having slandered him
on September 20, 1899. At that time the
Republican party, of which both are mem
bers, was in process of reorganization and
an enrolment was being made. Postmas
ter Eichhorn stands by the machine and
Klahrman is an anti-machine man. Klahr-
man, it is alleged, declared openly that
Eichhorn had added names to the enroll
ment book and made other remarks cal
culated to injure the Postmasters reputa-
ton.
Henry Dusberger, who was an inspector
of the enrolment which took place at No.
5l5 Spring street, testified that Klahrman
openly charged Eichhorn with adding
names to the roll and said to the enroll
ment board
wen fix you. We've got you down in
black and white"
The trial will continue all the afternoon.
Lawyer William H. Speer represents the
plaintiff and Lawyer George McEwan is
for the defendant.

CAPT. CRACKERS CONVICTED
He and His Wife Kept a Fence
on an Old Canal Boat.

Frederick Crackers, the skipper of an
old canalboat lying in the Cove in Hobo
ken, and his first mate, Bridget, who is
also his wife, were tried in the General
Sessions Court yesterday afternoon for
receiving stolen goods, and were convict
ed. They had turned the boat into a
fence and a large amount of plunder,
the proceeds of burglaries, were found
in it. Captain Crackers has several
other names, Durham, Frankham, FAN
renkamp, and Phil Knobs. The discov-
cry that the old boat was a fence was
made accidentally when some officers
went on board of it to search for some
stolen rope. The officers found sealskin
parel, silverware and other articles. Skip
per Crackers, thinking it was good
time for him to get away, jumped into
a rowboat and started off. Shots were
fired after him, but they didn't stop him.
A tugboat and ferryboat took up the
chase and the fugitive skipper was las
sooed with a rope thrown from the bow
of the ferryboat.
The stolen property was identified by
the owners. The sealskin sacque belong
ed to Mrs. H.. Pendemann, of No. 90l
Hudson street, Hoboken. The defendants
told contradictory stories and called each
other liars. Lawyer Davis of TIoboken
set up insanity as a defence. He also
objected to some of the States testimony
as being ''irreverant' This morning Cap
tain Crackers pleaded non vult to the
other indictments against him.

MOB MORBIDNESS.
Throngs Crowd to View
Cliford's Body in
Hoboken.
MANY WOMEN IN THE CRUSH
Dead Murderer in His Coffin
Exhibited Like a Rare
Curiosity.
MANY WOMEN IN THE CRUSH

A spectacle as morbid as it was unusual
was presented in Hoboken last evening
when a crowd of nearly thousand of the
morbidly curious clamored around
Washington street undertaking establish
ment to view the body of the hanged Ed
ward Clifford. For nearly three hours
men, women and children raced for adj
mission to inspect the remains. No one
was refused admission. The body lying
in an upper room appeared to be regarded
as a public curiosity. All conventional
respect for the sacredness of death seemed
to be forgotten. Everyone was allowed
to take peep at it like the prize exhibit
in a showman's tent.
The most deplorable thing about the
spectacle was the large number of women,
apparently respectable, who fought and
pushed for admission to the place. Three
fourths of them never knew or heard OF
Clifford until his crime had made him
notorious. Morbid curiosity to see how
murderer looked as a corpse was the only
thing that attracted them.
did you see the black mark left on
the neck by the roper" Wasn't he pale
looking?" ''Ain't it awful?''
This was the character of the remarks
made by the silly women as they filed
out, after taking a hurried look at the
corpse No words of regret or prayers
of hope that might come from friends
of the murderer were heard. There were
only a few of those there. None of the
gathering appeared to nave a serious
thought. They simply had been to see
a hanged man in a coffin and went away
with their curiosity satiated. Some moth
ers brought their children and young
men their best girls. A hanged man
on exhibition is an unusual thing in Ho-
boken, and the opportunity was thought
by everyone in the gathering to be too
good to be misstd
AS one spectator remarked, it was truly
gruesome spectacle. No one suggested
that it be stopped. 1t was allowed to go
on as long as the crowds came. The
few real friends that Clifford had were
compelled to take their turn in the line
with the rest of the sightseers No
privacy of any kind was observed,
Freeho1der Simon Kelly, who was
among the few real friends Clifford had.
entered the place with difficulty. The
dead mans brother Thomas likewise had
to push his way through the clamoring
mob.
The body reposed in a rosewood coffin
The large diamond stud which Clifford
wore while in the County Jail was still in
the shirt front, and scintillated in the
shaky candlelight IN strong contrast with
the other sombre surroundings.
The announcement that the funeral of
Edward Clifford would not be held until
tomorrow was a ruse adopted by the
friends of the hanged man to keep away
too great a crowd at the service. The
funeral was held today from ST. Law
rences Roman Catholic Church, Weehaw-
ken, where solemn high mass of requiem
was celebrated at ten o'clock. The inter-
ment was made at Hudson County Cath
olic Cemetery. The pail bearers were:-
Benjamin McAleese, Martin Gallagher,
John Woods, William Verdon, Frank Nc
Cauley and Town Clerk Thomas Carol of
WeehaWken.

BOERS ON THE RUN.
They Are Retiring Before Lord
Roberts's Steady Adj
vance.
IBy Gable to The Associated Press.1


LONDON, May 9, 19oO.-Although the
British expected considerable opposition
at the difficult drift Of the Zand River.
the latest advices from Smaldeel, Orange
Free State, indicate that the Federals are
not yet ready to make a determined at
tempt to stem Lord ROBBERS advance. The
latter's front, indeed is 50 wide and over
wnelming in numbers that it is difficult
to see how the Beers can help being
ousted out of Virginia Siding as they were
out of Smaldeel, even If they elected to
give battle. The same considerations
would probably affect the situation at
Kroonstad, hence the general belief that
little real opposition will be encountered
south of the Vaal. The repairs to the
bridges over the Vet River and the vaaI
are expected to retard the general march
from Smaldeel and Fourteen Streams for
three or four days, when General Butler
will also be ready.
The general idea is that Lord Roberts
will direct his right on Harrismith In or
