Especial 10 Inc Jersey City news
PATERSON, Sept. g. 19O1.-In speaking
OF the outlook for the Democratic Gubel
material campaign yesterday Chairman
William B. Gouriey, of the Democrats
State Committee, said
1--WE will win sure. 1 think that the Re-
publicans realize that. They know that 2
landslide, which is likely to occur at any
time, has carried them into office for
three years. The people of this State have
had enough of them.
'Our campaign will be conducted on
State issues, and we have abundance OF
material to work on.
Some say that Mayor Seymour is the
strongest candidate we can put up. Others
say that he is not. We do not pick our
candidates beforehand. and it is no won
der that there viii be a number of candi-
dates for such an honor.
You can count me out. as far as the
State Craftsmanship is concerned l have
not time to devote to the work.

MRS.JORDAN MAY RECOVER
Condition of Woman Whose
Throat Frank Wissner Cut
Is Improved This Morning.

Mrs. Isabella Jordan, whose throat was
cut by Frank Wissner, one of her board
ers, in front of her boarding house at
No. n Washington street, Hoboken, We'd
nesday night, was reported in the same
condition at st. Mary's Hospital this
morning. She lost considerable blood and
is consequently very weak, but so far her
condition has shown no signs of chang
ing for the worse Should blood poison
ing not set in the physicians at the hos
pital believe that she may have chance
to recover.
Wissner is confined in the County Jail
awaiting the result of Mrs. Jordan's in
juries. He still refuses to talk on the
subject of the assault. His friends be-
1ieve that he was temporarily insane
when he committed the deed.

able sum for arrearages allowed to accu-
mulate by your predecessors and there is
no desire on the part Of the city to re-
peat that experience.
Il therefore would respectfully notify
you that unless the aforesaid sum of
$500 is paid before September Is, or an
agreement is made with me previous to
that time looking to an early cancella-
tion Of this Indebtedness will cause the
supply of water to be shut off at the
point designated without further notice.
Every respectfully,
GEO. r. BOUTON,
Supervising Clerk, Etc"
In view of the fact that Jersey City Is
always in arrearage to the county for
taxes, the threat of the Clerk of the
Street and Water Board becomes inter-
.esting. The fact that Mr.. Bouton's COM
municatin was not read at yesterday
afternoons meeting of the Freeholders
nor the claims of the Board he represents
paid. would seemingly indicate that the
county representatives have no grave
fears that he will fulfill his threat and
the county institutions be left without
water.

Evidently certain people believe that
Jersey City is liable to receive another

week ago, because on a window Of an
