Albany, N. z, Oct. 15.-The court OF

a new trial
Molineux was convicted of the murder
of Catherine J. Adams in New York city

NEW NEW JERSEY LAWS.

Two hundred and nine laws of one sort or
another is the sum total of the work of the
one hundred and twenty-fifth Legislature,
which ended its career at an early hour
last Saturday morning.
Governor Voorhees, approved of ninety
nine of the measures Friday evening, hold
ing the Legislature in session until he had
disposed of every bill.
Thirty measures that had received the
endorsement of both houses were vetoed by
the Governor This makes the record of
bills passed by both houses during the
session just closed two hundred and thirty
nine
All told, there were introduced into the
Legislature six hundred and forty-two bills,
of which four hundred and ten were House
and two hundred and forty-two were Senate
measures.
OF the bills meeting with the approval
of the Governor, one hundred and nineteen
emanated in the Senate and ninety had
their origin in the House. Of these totals
forty-eight House measures and forty-one
Senate measures were signed on Friday.
Among the bills vetoed by the Governor
was that introduced by Senator Hutchinson
of Mercer, for the Methodist Preachers Aid
Society of New jersey. The bill proposed
to do away with the limitation of $780, 900
placed upon property acquired or held by
religious or benevolent societies. The
Preachers Aid Society recently had prop
erty of more than 100000 in value be-
queathed to it, and the measure was intended
to permit the holding of this property in
the society's name. The bill was general
in its terms and was approved by the
religious and educational institutions
generally, but the Governor refused to
permit it to go on the statute books.
The Governor also vetoed Mr. Hutchin-
sons bill proposing an increase from
$3.50, 900 to $500, 900 in the State road apprc-
priation. The measure further provided
that the State should pay two-thirds of the
cost of new roads instead of one-third, as
now, and the county to pay one-third
instead Of two-thirds. This latter feature
was the one to which the Governor objected
The Governor also put his stamp of dis
approval on the attempt Of Road Com
missioner Budd to get an additional al
lowance of $500 annually for himself and
like sum for office furnishings Despite
the fact that he secured favorable decision
from the Supreme Court holding him to be
entitled to the increase from $1,000 to
$2500 in his salary, the constitution to the
contrary Notwithstanding, the omniverous
old road commissioner lobbied through the
bill to get virtually another $500 tackled
on to that salary. The Governor frustrated
the effort with veto.
The measure introduced by Senator
Hutchinson at the request of Bishop Scar
