STRIKER Hailed TO COURT.
He Was Accused of Assaulting
"Scab," but Plaintiff
Didn't Appear.


Harry Faulkner, one of the strikers at
the Barnes Manufacturing Company's S
sash and blind factory, West Side avenue
Jersey City, was arraigned before Police
Justice Murphy in the Second Criminal
Court this morning on a charge of having
assaulted Thomas Ryan, of No. S14 West
Newark avenue, who is now employed at
the mill Ryan failed to put in an ap-
pearance when the case was called, and
Faulkner was discharged.
The alleged assault occurred on We'd
nesday night, when the "scabs" left the
mill. Ryan claims that, although not a
union man, he went out with the other
employees at the beginning of the strike,
and therefore thought he was entitled to
receive strike benefits the same as the
union men. When he did not receive these
he went back to work.
There is said to be warrant out for
another striker in connection with the
same assault.
The strike remains practically unchang-
ed today. The piekets are on duty, and
follow the few wagon loads of material
that are taken from the mill.
Mill Woodworkers Union No. 11S, to
which the strikers belong, will meet to-
night at Rhettwitch's Hall, No. 642 New
ark avenue, when 1t is probable that a
statement of the position of the locked
out employees and the reasons for the
strike will be made public.

MRS. BROWNS DEFENSE.
Isaac S. Taylor Argues That
the Servant Maid Is Not
a Reliable Witness.

Argument was resumed yesterday af-
ternoon in the divorce suit of George T.
Brown, prominent member of the
Palma Club, against his wife, Mrs. Mary
G. Brown, before Vice Chancellor Pitney,
In Chancery Chambers Mr. Flavel Nc
Gee, having closed his argument for the
petitioner, Mr.. Isaac s. Taylor, on be-
half of Mrs. Brown, began for the de-
fence.
Mr.. Taylor dealt with the evidence of
the petitioners chief witness, the servant
girl, Lizzie McCabe She was virtually
the only witness on which Mr.. Brown re-
lied as to the circumstances arising dur
ing the summer of 1898. Her direct tes-
timony developed nothing except some
commonplace Incidents which, Mr.. Tay-
lor argued, had been distorted and twist
ed into wrong constructions and false in
dications.
Counsellor Taylor laid special stress, in
his impeachment of the MoCabe girls tes-
timony, on the fact that she had been
kept under the control and influence of
Mr.. Brown himself by most extraordinary
methods, chief among which was devel-
oped the fact that she met Mr.. Brown
by appointment in New York City and
was there entertained by him lavishly.
That he took her to a roof garden and
she was treated to a wine supper by him
and afterwards was taken by him to
apartments occupied by him in New York
City and there harbored
Mr.. Taylor pointed out that the wit
ness's attention was called to these mat
ters on cross-examination, but her an
swers were prevented by Mr.. Brown s
counsel. .Thereupon evidence was admit
ted of the confessions of the servant girl
to other persons, admitting these facts
and proving that she had sworn falsely
in giving her testimony and that she
had declared that she would get even
with Mrs. Brown for discharging her from
her service.
At this point the Vice Chancellor was
suddenly called too ther pressing. matters
and adjourned the further hearing of the
case until March 2l, when Mr.. Taylor
will resume for the defence.3

SURPRISES FOR C. o. P.
Woolley Has Several Things Up
His Sleeve.

There are several surprises in store for
Republicans this evening when the
County Committee meets. Chairman
Woolley said that he would appoint his
standing committees tonight. Some spec
ulation is rife as to whether George w.
Decker goes on the Executive Commit
tee Indications point that way Recent
conferences held in the Eighth ward be-
tween Chairman Edward Fry, John H.
WeastelI and Mr.. Decker led up to the
point where action must be taken. Mr..
Decker will go on that committee and
other of his men will be committeeman
In return for the promises of the Deck
ers ito get in line"
Another victory is the dropping of Tren-
cry and Lauer, two ring committeeman,
to allow two Deckerites to hold places
rightfully won. Then there are the
charges of the late General Ramsay re-
garding the disposition of certain funds
to the extent of $1,000. Definite action on
the future of this investigation will
doubtless be taken. The abandonment
of the investigation is expected.

Match Game Rolled Wednesday
Ni~ht


The Columbia Club and the Bergen
Bowling Club rolled a match game We'd
nesday night on the Bergens' alleys,
which resulted in a victory for the Ber-
gems. The two clubs have rolled against
each other for four years, rolling two
games a year, and the number of vic
tories are now evenly divided, each club
having won four games.
The game Wednesday night was hotly
contested all the way through until the
last two frames. when the Bergens forged
ahead
Joseph Kaiser was presented with a
large bouquet for rolling the highest
score of the game. He made a neat
speech in acknowledgment. There has
been considerable rivalry between K.
Strohofer and Henry Simon, but Mr.
Simon was not in his usual good form
and his score was only Ill, while that of
Mr.. Strohofer was 153. After the game
was finished supper was served and a
good time enjoyed until early in the
morning.
The scores were:--
Bergen B. C.-Bundy. 15s; Mcclure, 11s:

NEW VICE CHANCELLORS.
Lawyers Who May Secure
Appointment for Seven
Years at $4,000
Annually.

Much guessing is being indulged in by
Hudson County lawyers as to the two
new vice chancellors shortly to be ap-
pointed by Chancellor Magee 1t is agreed
ON all sides that Gov VOORHEES, will be
one of the appointees, but who will be
the other?
"A great many names have been mem
toned and in some instances petitions
are already in circulation favoring this
lawyer and that one. Possibilities so far
are:-Ex-senator William Brinkerhoff
and Washington B. Williams. Judge Otto
Grouse and Commissioner Charles G..
Black. County Counsel John Griffin has
many adherents, who are pushing him.
The race, it is said by well-posted ones,
will dwindle down to Mr.. Brinkerhoff
and Mr.. Williams. A county candidate
looms up in the person of Senator Reed,
who is a close friend of the Governor,
but the prevailing opinion is that it will
be Hudson County man.
Both Mr.. Brinkerhoff and Mr.. williams
are well known leaders of the bar and
men of the highest standing in the COM
munity. Because Mr.. Brinkerhoff some
time ago refused an appointment to the
bench, some think that for the same reas-
on, his big practice, he will be unable to
accept it this time, and others in the
race devoutly hope it will be so. Mr.. Will
liams has had an extensive experience
on equity work, and is one of the special
masters to whom many important cases
have been referred.
The position of vice chancellor is at
the appointment of the chancellor, and
the term is for 7 years, at yearly sal
ary of $4,000.

bers of the parish.
