ing Progress in Fifty Years.
The officers of the Hudson County Ma
tional Bank have issued an attractive
booklet to mark the occasion of the semi
centennial of the bank, which was or
ganized May /, 1861. The little book con-
tains facts and figures indicative Of the
prosperity of the bank during the last
half century" 1t is illustrated with views
of the first banking house which the insti-
tuition occupied while its first building,
now the building of sThe Jersey City
News was being. erected; of The News
building, and Of the present handsome
banking house at Washington and York
streets.
There is also list of the officers and
clerical force from the beginning and a
list of the first depositors The bank has
had nine presidents, the first being John
Cassidy Jacob Van Worst was the first
vice president and Albert T. Smith the
first cashier. The venerable principal of
school No. 1. George H Lindsey, is the
Oldest living and continuous depositor,
having opened his account October 6, 1851,
and kept it there ever since.
The bank is justly proud of the men
prominent in the financial world who
graduated from its banking room Promi-
nent among these are Edward F. c..
Young, president Of the First National
Bank; John w Hardenbergh. president Of
the Commercial Trust Company Of this
city, and George W. Young, president Of
the United States Mortgage Company Of
New York, all Of whom began life as
clerks in the Hudson County National
Bank.
The booklet shows how the bank has
steadily progressed, having started with
$206, 1920 deposits In 1856 which has i'm
creased to $2.0S6. 1877 4s in 1901

NO USE FOR ANARCHISTS


Lawless Girls and Workmen.
There was almost riot in the Standa1 d
Watch Company's factory few days
ago over the shooting of President Nc
Kinley. Two girls whose names could
not be learned, said when the President
died it was good for him.,
The sentiments Of these girls became
known among the five hundred employees
Of the big factory and trouble was irilmi-
nent. The superintendent was made ac-
quainted with the situation and he in
vestigated. Several girls who claimed that
they heard two girls speak in harsh terms
of the dead President, pointed the two
out to the superintendent. Denials and
tears affected the superintendent. He re-
lerted and saved the girls from being dis
charged
The employees were wild when they
learned that the offending girls were to
be retained. They made no secret OF their
displeasure and lost no time in making
their feelings known. The majority OF
the employees now refuse to associate with
the Offenders.
1t became noised about among the men
employed In the factory that two of the
men at work there had spoken bitterly
against the President when he was shot
The two were put down as anarchists.
Since the death of President Mckinley
these men have not been heard to utter
an uncomplimentary remark. It was said
by some Of the men that the anarchists
would have been badly treated had they
uttered any words against the dead Presi-
dent.
The officials in the factory refused to
divulge the names Of the employees who
were under suspicion
An emDloye stated this morning that
Superintendent Nutting had discharged
the two men. This occurred few days
ago after the anarchists made several adj
ditional remarks which were not relished
by the men. It is pure luck that the
DISCHARGED men were not mobbed. Their
names were not learned.

MUST PAY up AT ONCE.
Riparian Board Thinks Mr.
Eckerson of Hackensack Is
Trifling With IT..

John C. Payne, secretary of the State
Riparian Board, today sent letter to G.
Il. Eckerson. representative of a syndi-
cate which applied for grant of lands
lying under water at Pleasant Valley,
Bergen county. saying that unless he put
up forthwith certified check for $l,2OV
the lease made to him would be cam
ce,led. This application was granted a
month ago and has been lying in the
board rooms waiting the appearance of
tMr. Eckerson of Hackensack.
When Eckerson appeared before the
board at session held at Sea Girt, he
refused to disclose the use to which the
property would be put. He said that he
represented powerful interests. The board
granted the application for $50 feet at SEQ
per foot. 1t was agreed at the time that
if the applicants erected a $soo,ooO build
ing the board would grant rebate OF
$50 per foot, cutting the cost down to slu
a foot.
At the board meeting yesterday Mr..
Eckerson asked the Commissioners to
change the grant to a lease and extend
the time from one to two years. He ex-
planned that ne represented the Knicker-
booker Sugar Refining Company. which
company wanted the property TO fight the
trust.
The board went into executive session
and after some deliberation announced
chat the application would not be granted
ON the terms asked. The board refused
to change the grant to lease and allow
a rebate thereon. They told Eckerson that
If he wanted the property he could have
it under the original agreement. Eckerson
left, saying he was going to confer with
his principals.
The Knickerbocker Sugar Company is
unknown to the board The Commission
ers say that the applicants must come to
terms at once or lose the grant.

HISS ARDS VALUATION OF DAILY
She Thinks He's Worth More to Her
Than $50.

That Miss Elizabeth Afrd, who sued
aged Martin DAILY for $4,000 for breach
OF promise to marry, IS not satisfied with
the valution of $50 placed on him by q
jury In the Circuit Court, was made plain
this morning when Lawyer Alex Simpson
applied to Judge Nevius for a rule to
show cause why the verdict should not
be set aside. Lawyer Simpson said that
the Courts charge was to the effect that
IL verdict was found for the plaintin
it should be a substantial one. The jury
had disobeyed these instructions and the
verdict was therefore irregular and should
be set aside
Judge Nevius allowed the rule and fixed
next Friday, October 2, as the date for
argument. ".
