LIEUT.. ToFFEY's SUCCESS
FiIipino Colonel Surrenders to the
SON of q Well Known Citizen.

In the news recently received from the
Philippine Islands of the doing of the
United States troops, appears an interest
ing story of the greatest Importance.
Colonel Felipe Topacio, commanding the
Cavite regiment, surrendered his sword
to Lieutenant John ]. Toffey, Jr.. of the
Fourth U. S. Infantry, and son of Colonel
Toffey of this city.
For some time the insurgent colonel and
his troops had been a very sharp thorn
in the side of the American troops, and
Colonel Baldwin, of the Fourth Regiment,
was extremely anxious to corral them
He deputed Lieutenant Toffey to the task,
who. after very patient and energetic
work, finally attained the much desired
object The Colonel and the Lieutenant
met in an open space and arranged the
terms of the surrender. Very cad and
dignifed Colonel Felipe promised Lieuten-
ant Toffey that he would no more take up
arms against the "Americanos," and as
sured him that his officers and men
would obey the same parole.
For the success of the surrender Colonel
Baldwin warmly complimented Lieutenant
Toffey

The Sun Strings Nine Inches Daily

The usual Christmas course of lectures
was begun at the Royal Institution by Sir
Robert Ball, says the London Times The
sun, he pointed out, was the source of all
the heat received by the earth. Now. it
was a well-known fact that most things
in cooling became smaller; a poker, for
example, was shorter when it was cold
than when it was red hot. The sun, too,
must obey this fundamental law, and
must therefore be getting smaller. If we
could measure its diameter on two sue
cessive. days we should find it had de-
creased by nine inches-that was to say,
it was shrinking at the rate of, roughly,
five feet week, or mile in every twenty
years In view of this shrinkage, some of
might feel anxious lest the sun should not
last their time. Such anxiety, however,
was groundless; he was $50, 900 miles in
diameter, so it would take 10000 years for
him to be reduced by 1000 miles to S5S,0Oo
and the lecturer was sure that if there
were two suns in the sky, one S6e,0o0 miles
in diameter and the other S5S,090, no one
would be able to tell by looking at them
which of the two was the smaller. But os
the sun was shrinking nine inches every
day, and had been doing so for ages, it
followed that in the past he was very
much greater than he was now But he
always had the same amount of material
in him and weighed no heavier than at
present; hence the inference was that he
was once a huge mass of rareful gaS--a
great, glowing nebGla.

STRIKE WILL co ON.
Barnes Company Must Accede to
Demands or Omit Business.

"The strike will continue until the
Barnes Manufacturing Company accedes
to our terms or gets out of business, y
was the remark made by one of the lock-
ed-out employees at the conclusion O. Mill
Woodworkers' Union No. 1lS, at Rhett-
witch's Hail. No. 642 Newark avenue, Jer-
sey City Heights, last night.
The meeting was largely attended and
very enthusiastic. Reports on the prog
ress of the strike were made by Business
Agent R. E. Edwards of the Carpenters
District Council and the representative
of the local. The sentiment of the men,
without single exception, was to con-
tinue the strike until the nine hour sched-
ule was returned to.
This morning Henry Falconer, one of
the strikers who was arrested on a
charge of assaulting Thomas Ryan, who
went out when the strike began, but af-
terwards returned to work, was held for
the Grand Jury in 5000 bail by Police Jus
tice Murphy in the Second Crimingf
Court.
The situation at the mill remains un-
changed. The police are still there in
force but the strikers, outside of the
pickets, do not put in an appearance.

LAWYER VS.. CLIENT.
Hugo S. Mack Sues George G. Hoif-
man for Counsel Fees.

An unusual suit-that of a lawyer
against client for the fees alleged to be
due for professional services-was com
menced before Judge Nevius in the Cir
cult Court yesterday afternoon
The plaintiff was Hugo S. Mack, a New
York lawyer, and the defendant George
c. Hoffman, of that city, who is now in
Europe. The case came within the juris-
diction of this county because of the at
tachment of the defendants property
here.
Lawyer Mack's action was for $700 for
drafting papers for the formation of the
Exton Siliaca Sand Co., which owns and
operates a plant at Downington. Pa.
Lawyer Demarest, of Bayonnes represent
ed the plaintiff, and Lawyer Hassett, of
New York, the defendant.
Lawyer Mack testified to the work he
had performed and showed his books.
His clerk gave testimony about a trip he
made to Downington in the interest of
the new company.
William S. Kelley, a New York lawyer,
was offered as an expert on the value of
the pf5fntfffs 3 legal services, but Judge
Nevius ruled his testimony out.

when the defence will try to show that

SPRING ELECTION.
Allan McDermott Says the
Meeker Bill Is Uneon-
stitutional.
O'DONNELL TO GO AHEAD
He Must Receive Nominating
Papers, Print Ballots and
Get All Ready.

City Clerk Michael ]. O'Donnell has re-
ceived the following opinion from Corpor-
alton Counsel Allen l.. McDermott. con-
cerning the validity of Meeker Anti-Elec-
ton act:-
Jersey City, March s, 1901.
NJ ]. O'Donnell, Esq, City Clerk OF
Jersey City.
Dear Sir:-I have, as requested, exam
ined the provisions of what is known as
the ttMeeker Act" recently enacted at
Trenton, and have to advise you that II
is, in my opinion, unconstitutional. The
State constitution prohibits the passing
of private, local or special laws 'regula-
ting the internal affairs of towns ana
countless and directs that the legislature
shall pass general laws for such regula-
ton 1t will be noticed that the enumera-
ton in the inhibition is as to towns ana
counties and in the case of Van Ripper vs.
Parsons, II Vroom, p. l, it was contended
that the word ''towns" did not include
Cities The Supreme Court decided other
wise. and it has ever since been held that
all species of towns, including cities, must
be regulated by general laws, whenever
practicable. Classification of municipah-
ties is sustained when such classification
is germane to the object of the statute
The question presented by the 'Meeker
Bill'' is whether it's classification OF that
species of towns known as cities can be
sustained In the case of Wanser VS..
Hoos, 81 Vroom, 4S3, it was held that
statute to consolidate municipal and gen
eral elections in towns known as cities
of the first class was unconstitutional In
delivering the opinion of the court, Chief
Justice Depue asked ION what course
of reasoning can substantial grounds be
found for discriminating between the
cities of the one class and other cities,
towns, townships and localities in the
matter of holding local elections" at the
same time and combined with elections
for State and county officers?'
1t may with equal force be asked:-"On
what course of reasoning can substantial
grounds be found for discriminating be-
tween that species of towns known as
cities and other kinds of towns in the
matter of consolidating eiections?' take
it that the decision il. Manser vs.. Hoos
answers every arguISent that can be ad-
vanced for suppor/ of the 'Meeker Bill .
ard therefore advise that it is your duty
10 receive nominating papers, print bal
lots and do all other things necessary for
gsa holding of municipal election in Jer-
sssy City next month.
Respectfully yours,
ALLAN L. McDERMOTT,
Corporation Counsel.

Women OF Power in England

The three most powerful women in Eng
land today are the Duchess of Marlbor-
oug'h, the Countess of Warwick and the
Duchess of Devonshire. AS Mistress of
the Robes to the new Queen, the "Ameri-.
can Duchess fills q position coveted by
many British peeresses. The Countess of
Warwick, who is as well known by her
former title. Lady Brooke, has great in
fluence with King Edward and will there
fore have much to do with his decisions
upon questions of public interest. She is
said to be a woman of great shrewdness
and good sense. The power of the Ouch
ess of Devonshire win be heightened by
the fact that her husband IS apt to be ap-
pointed as Premier upon the retirement of
Lord Salisbury.
