VOORHEES, OWN BILL SIGNED
He Is Now Sure of His Berth as
Vice Chancel1or.

Especial to 1.-THE Jersey City News.''1
TRENTON, March 20, 1901-GovernoE
Voorhees, yesterday signed the bill in
troduced by .enator Hudspeth of Hudson
County authorizing Chancellor Magic to
name an additional Vice Chancellor when
such an office is deemed necessary. The
bill was introduced by Senator Hudspeth
because of the fact that cases in Chance
ry hang fire so long, the members of the
court invariably being many months be-
hind in their work.
This is the bill which, it is understood
will provide a place for Governor Voor-
hees when his party no longer cares to
use him.
The Governor has also signed the fol-
lowing bills:-
Senate No. SS-Conferring upon Boards
of Trustees of any town, village, or other
municipality where such Board exists, the
same powers and duties as were formerly
enjoyed by the Township Committees.
Senate No. 41-Enables Union County 20
purchase land for new court house and
establishes a building committee to con-
sist of the director and four members of
the Board of Chosen Freeholders.
The Assembly redistricting bill giving
Hudson a new Assemblyman; the Con-
gressional redistricting bill; Mr.. Vollers's
bill appropriating S155, 900 for new sta-
tion house for Sixth precinct, Jersey City.

GRAGIN DOCK PERMITTED
But the Syndicate Must Not
Interfere With Harbor Lines
and Navigable Depths.

Agents of the Cragin syndicate, which
seeks to construct a dry dock and ship
yard on the flats in Communipaw Bay,
near to Bedloe's Island, were notified last
night that the Treasury Department had
given its consent to the syndicate to
carry out its plans. There is string to
the permission, though, and that is the
syndicate must not interfere with exist
ing harbor lines and navigable depths.
The Government stipulates also that
the works of the syndicate shall leave
500 feet width of navigable water between
their dry dock and the island recently
built by the Government west of Ellis
Island for additional accommodation at
the immigrant station there. 1t is under
stood that this stipulation was made be-
cause the Government will build another
island in that vicinity, and they are de-
sirous of preserving the navigable cham
nels near the proposed island.
The New Jersey. Board of Riparian
Commissioners have been requested to
fix the solid filling and exterior pier lines
for the syndicate. Representatives of the
board and the syndicate will appear be-
fore the New York Harbor Line Commis-
sioners today to arrange the matter with

CROWLEY DIES
Bayonne School Principals
Attempt at Suicide
Succeeds.

Peter James Crowley, the assistant
superintendent of Bayonne High School,
who shot himself on Saturday morning,
died at the City Hospital this morning
at one O'Clock. He was unconscious for
some time before the end came. The
body was removed to Speer's morgue this
this afternoon or tomorrow morning.
Just what led Crowley to take his own
life is not known. 1t is thought that he
was temporarily insane as result of ex-
cessive cigarette smoking and drinking.
A few days more than a week ago he left
his post in the Bayonne High School
and was not seen for several hours. When
he returned he was brought before the
Bayonnes Board of Education and tried on
charges He escaped punishment and he
was to return to his duties on Thursday
last, but he decided to wait until Mon
day morning. On Friday night he dis
appeared from Bayonne. No one knew
where he was and anxious inquiries were
made. Nothing more was heard of him
until about 4:30 o'clock Saturday morn
ing. At that hour he approached Thomas
Boyle, cab driver at the Pennsylvania
Railroad station, and ordered that he be
driven to st. Francis's Hospital. He then
shot himself through the right side with
a 42-calibre revolver. The bullet passed
under his stomach and lodged in his liver.
He was taken to the City Hospital 1t
was thought at first that he could not
possibly recover, but hopes were held out
when slight improvement was noticed
Sunday evening. Yesterday afternoon,
however, he began to sink and rapidly
failed. An hour before midnight he be-
came unconscious and died at one o'clock.
Cigarettes had such hold on the young
man that he asked for one Monday while
on his death bed.
Crowley was born in Holyoke, Mass,
twenty-seven years ago. He was edu-
Gated at Holy Cross College, Worcester,
Mass. About six years ago he came here
and tutored at St. Peters College. He
then went to Seton Hall College, in East
Orange, and tutored. About a year ago
he was appointed assistant superintendent
of the Bayonne High School. He was
very well liked and regarded as a studi-
Gus, highly educated man. He was known
about town.
Mrs. Crowley, the suicides mother. of
No. 103 Evergreen street, was greatly
shocked at the news of her sons death.
She has been suffering greatly since he
shot himself. and she is now confined to
ner bed with nervous prostration.
His wife. who was Mss Sarah Meaney,
is also suffering so that she is compelled
to have a physicians care. No funeral
arrangements have yet been made.

$1,000 FOR FATHER MEEHAN
All Saints Parishioners Gave the
Priest n purse

The Rev. Joseph II. Meehan, pastor of
All Saints's Catholic Church of Lafayette,
was the recipient of a substantial purse
from his parishioners last evening, as a
token of their honor and esteem. The
pastor was well aware of the presentation
as he was apprised of the approaching
event on numerous occasions. In fact,
no attemtp was made to conceal the mo-
tive of the committee recently elected to
raise the money.
Promptly at eight o'clock the COM
mittee of twelve headed for the rectory
on Pacific avenue. Alderman John Wall
rang the bell and the committeeman were
ushered into the reception room. The
Rev. Father Doyle. Father Meehan's as
sistant, was selected to make the presen-
tation speech. There were few formali-
ties when Father Meehan came into the
presence of the committee.
Father Doyle started the ball rolling
by announcing the intention of the COM
mitteemen, stating that he had been ask
ed OF do the honors in behalf of those
gathered there. He then reviewed the
record of the pastor in the local field. He
congratulated his superior on the won
derful achievements and said that it was
the wish of Father Meehan's faithful
work should continue under the careful
guidance of Father Meehan and that all
subsequent undertakings would be
pregnent with fruitful results. He then
presented the purse containing over 81, 900.
Father Meehan replied briefly to his
parishioners. His address was one of
heartfelt appreciation for the munificient
gift. He added that he had only done his
duty in that comparatively new field and
that the record should stand for itself.
1t was only with the assistance of his
people that the result was attained and
who in any way contributed to the
building up of the parish
After congratulations all around, the
party left. Before going, however, the
members said they hoped their pastor
would use his gift on a pleasure trip this
summer. Some suggested an ocean voy-
age. The pastor drew the line there, say
nothingc ould induce him to leave the
earth.
The presentation last night was to
honor the pastor for his indefatigable
labor in raising $4,000, in four years and
entirely clearing the parish of debt
Father Meehan contemplates further i'm
provements in the parish in the near
future. He intends to erect church at
a cost of $4,000 and rectory for $l50O0
The present parish building will then be
used as a hall for parish events.

Sheriff RuempIer when seen by a
News reporter this morning said
II do not know that the bill for which
Governor Voorhees, is the sponsor is aim
ed at this county, but can say that Hud
son is now. and has been during my
administration of the Sheriffs Office as
free from pool selling and other forms
of gambling as any county in the State.
Spasmodic unsuccessful attempts have
been made to start pool room in
Kearny. Almost as soon as the place
opened the police of that town were noti-
fed with the result that it was raided.
Certainly the officials here cannot be
blamed for gamblers trying to open these
places. Their duty is to promptly sup
press them and if possible arrest the
offenders. This has been done and
will continue to be done as long as l am
Sheriff of Hudson county. We have been
singularly free of late from even aspar-
sions tnat gambling was conducted here.

were such violations of the law. and if

TO INSPECT WATERWORKS
Board of Trade Will Take a
Trip to Boonton Soon.

1t was decided last night at meeting
of the directors of the Board of Trade
that the board should as soon as possible
make an inspection of the work done on
the new waterworks at Boonton. The
proposition was made by Mr.. Joseph A.
Dear, who informed the directors that he
would make the arrangements for trans
portation and fix the day.
''It is highly important" observed
President Samuel G. Mount, that in view
of the complications which may follow
from the rejection of the bill in the Leg
islature for the abandonment of the Nor
ris Canal that we should see what has
been done and what remains to be done
before the contract is completed
Some of the directors thought that Jer-
sey City would suffer should anything
interfere with the contractors, but these
were assured that Mr.. P. H. Flynn's
bond of 100000 would amply protect the
city's interest.
There being no quorum the president did
not call the meeting to order and after
desultory talk about plans for future
meetings the directors adjourned

The curiosity of an employe of The
National Storage Company, at Black
Tom, brought to light crime committed
by some unknown person. While stand
ing on the shore of the bay yesterday
morning the employe noticed cigar box
floating along with the tide, gradually
coming nearer and nearer. He watched
the box with idle curiosity for a while
and when it came within reach he drew
it from the water and opened it. His
horror was great when he found that the
box contained the body of female child.
He notified the Fifth precinct police, who
had the body taken to Speer's morgue in
the morgue wagon. County Physician
Converse was notified.
