STITUTIONAL.

Trenton, July (SpeciaD.-The Court of Errors
and Appeals to-day declared unconstitutional the
act OF the last legislature providing for the cleo
tion OF excise boards in Newark and Jersey City.
The act provided for bipartisan boards by the
nomination of candidates by each OF the polti-
cal parties, and the provision that only two candi-
dates could be voted for on any ballot This in
effect left the selection OF such boards entirely in
the hands of the party primaries.
The Jersey City authorities refused to recognize
the act, which would have become operative jan
uary ! next, but insisted that all applicants for
licenses should pay entire years fee. The act
was attacked on the ground that the constitution
lnsures TO ever voter the right 10 vote for every
candidate be elected.
The Court Of Errors unanimous in declaring
the act unconstitutional, and the opinion will be
rendered by Chief Justice Depue.
The Newark Excise Board is a bipartisan
body or four members. who appointed instead

LOSS OF LIFE AT SEA.
List of Fatalities Last Year C9nsia-
erabIy Lower Than for Pres
ViouS Year.

The annual report of the supervising
has just been made public in the form
of an abstract, contains highly inter-
eSting exhibit of the numbers of lives
lost At sea from American vessels dur
ing the last calendar year, together
with other important correlated infor-
nation. 1t appears from this document
that the total number of persons
drowned, or who came to their death in
other ways, was 404, which is consid-
cradle increase over the previous year,
when the aggregate of fatalities was
123 less. This increase was due to the
laundering of the steamer Portland off
the Massachusetts coast during the
great gale on the night of November 27,
1898. Every one of the 127 persons on
board perished.
Of the total of 404 SO fatalities were
chargeable to accidental drowning, 2l3
persons went down with wrecks, 13
succumbed TO fires, 81 were killed in
collisions, "a were the victims of ex-
plosions or of accidental escape of
steam, and in 81 cases miscellaneous
causes were reported.
The chapter on destruction of vessel
property shows that 4s vessels met with
accidents, seven had fires, 13 were in
collision, eight experienced breaking
of steam pipes, two had explosions and
Is encountered snags and wrecks or
developed leaks. AS the duty of the
supervising inspector generals office is
10 ascertain whether steam vessels have
complied with all the safety require
ments in the matter of fliye-saying appli-
ances and relative to the condition of
boilers the report may be considered a
favorable exhibit. The destruction of
the Portland was not due to iaxness on
the part of inspectors. but to the reck-
lessness of her captain, who insisted on
putting out to sea in the teeth of fierce
storm.
Except for this disaster, the loss of
life would have been comparatively
small. Only two vessels were damaged
by eXplosions-an excellent record con-
sidering the extent of steam water
