Conner Wire Thieves.

No system of railroading is so at the
mercy of thieves as the trolleys because of
the exposure of so much valuable material
copper wire. The Camden and Wood
bury line has been extremely unfortunate
in this regard, hundreds of dollars worth of
both bond and feed wire having been
stolen at various times. The thieves are
generally from the rank of the vagabonds
who will not work, but on one occasion
last Thursday, an employee was discovered
in the act of increasing his salary in that
way. For several nights Superintendent
Pierce, of Washington Park, had his sus-
picions that everything was not going
right at the power house, strange visitors
having been seen about the premises on
two or three different occasions. Last
Thursday night he determined to watch the
actions of the new engineer and electrician,
VIM. Krupp, who has only been employed
at the park a few days. To his surprise,
he discovered him burning the insulation
from the copper electric light wire, and
after stripping the wire coiled it into small
bundles
The package of wire was then passed to
a man who, Superintendent Pierce alleges,
was the confederate of Krupp, and about
nine O'Clock both men prepared to leave
the park on a north bound trolley car with
the bundle of wire. He accosted them on
the platform, accused them Of stealing the
wire and placed them under arrest They
were lodged in Woodbury. jail and given a
hearing Friday morning. Krupp's com
panion gave his name as VIM. Reichstein,
of Philadelphia, and said he went to the
park expecting to get work.
Both men admitted having the wire, but
pleaded not guilty to any intent to steal
They were committed to jail in default of
ball. and will be given trial before

Other Thieves.

Our Westville-Newbold correspondent
last week gave account of the theft of three
pocket-books containing sums aggregating
$50, from Joseph Flint at Washington
Heights, by hired man. The man was
captured at Swedesboro last Saturday, and
brought to Woodbury.. At a hearing
before Justice Pancoast he plead guilty to
taking $3.50, but not to $50. Judge Jes-
sup will probably sentence him tomorrow
A colored boy, about the size of a pint OF
cider, who came up from ''down South"
about a month ago, and found employment
with Ed. Monahan, of Swedesboro, left his
employer last Saturday on wheel belong
ing to one of Mr.. Monahan's boys. He
came to Woodbury. where he sold the wheel
for $130, and then drifted to J. J. Cos
tello's place near Wenonah, where he OBJ
tanned shelter for the night, and promise of
job. Officer Dopson heard of his presence
there and brought him to Woodbury..
Justice Barnaby committed him to jail
The wheel was recovered.

Con1moner Comment.
Extracts From W. J. Bryans Paper. :
Queen Victoria.

England's queen has closed her long
and eventful career and her death has
brought sincere sorrow to her subjects
Her administration was popular be-
cause her personal virtues were worthy
of admiration. and for the further rea-
son that she allowed her people (those
who have parliaments) to have their
cwn way in matters of legislation. Her
birth, her education, her environment
and her own interests all led her TO
support the monarchical principle OF
government, but, measured by any
Ilile that can be applied to throne,
her reign will compare favorably with
any previous reign in English history
or with the reign of any contempor-
aneous sovereign. Her influence tend
ed toward peace, and there is every
reason to believe that war was always
source of real regret to her.
HeI age, her high character and her
womanliness combined to make her
name revered among her own people
and respected abroad. Lacking, tor
the most part, the qualities OF head
fni heart which make kings odious,
she has done much to lessen the oppo-
sition of arbitrary power, which sixty
years ago mcnaced European rulers
Whether her successor will proht by
her example or develop less popuiai
traits remains to be seen. II Edward
VII proves that he has Just claim 10
the confidence bestowed upon her, she,
as his mother as well as his prede-
cessor. will derive credit from his
good deeds; II, on the other hand ne
fails In the difficult task of iillins her
place satisfactorily her reign Will gro"
the brighter by contrast.
It is c high yet deserved tribute
to her to say that no one exercising
royal prerogatives could have done
better apd that the world at large mas
cause &c mourn her demise.

Two Dozen Pockets.

The New York World is burdened
with the once-popular notion that Am
erican legislation should be framed 10
promote the greatest good OF the
greatest number. and never to beneht
the few at the expense Of the many.
Having analyzed Mr.. Hanna's ship
subsidy bill for the purpose of deter
mining how many pockets are TO De
benefited by II. the World is shockeu
by its discoveries and declares that
the bare fact ought to make and sena-
tor, even Mr.. Hanna, blush to vote for
It. The World has discovered that d
''the whole list of ships that are en-
titled to the highest subsidy rate fixed
by the bill nine-tenths are owned by
Just four companies-to-wit, the IN
ternational Navigation company, the
New York and Cuba Mail company,
the Pacific Mail Steamship company
and the American Mail Steamship
company. Nine-tenths of the smaller
subsidy rates that would be paid on
foreign-built steamers would also go
to four concerns only, and these four
are really only two operating under
different names-namely, the Standard
Oil Trust and the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. Under the clauses which pro-
vide bounties for ships now building
for foreign trade in American ship
yards and half bounties for ships
building abroad for American owners
II appears further that less than
dozen ship-owners and only four ship
builders would be beneficiaries.
This then is what the ship subsidy
bill would do, summed In sentence:
II would take from the pockets OF
10000. 900 people 100000 n year to
put 1t into the pockets of less than two
dozen private business concerns all
