Ros<MoNp's ROUGH TRIP.

San Francisco, Oct. 25.-Captain
Johnson of the big schooner RosamonG
reported upon arrival yesterday that
great southeast gale made things in
terestIng for all hands when the vessel
was within thirty-five miles Of port
Thursday. A long passage OF nearly
twenty-four days from Honolulu was
made by the schooner. The gale car
ried away the fore and main sails aud
two jibs, and caused the schooner to
lose much of the advantage she had
had in burfeting the wind. The ten
passengers in the Rosamond were bad,
ly frightened by the boisterous wealth
Ell and the heavy rolling of the vessel.

Colombia Wants
Higher Price

Washington, Oct. 27.-The long eX-
pected response of the Colombian Gov
eminent to the proposition made by
the State Department for the negotia-
ton of a canal treaty ~ the lines Of
the Spooner act has read ped Washing
ton. and was presented 'to the State
Department 1t is difficult to learn
the exact nature of this communica-
ton. but II is known that II is not al
together an unqualified acceptance OF
the State Departments propositions.
1t is, however. friendly and dignified
in tone. and does not close the nego-
tiations by any means. though II un'
questionably sets back the date OF
final agreement by opening up new top
les for argument.
For one thing, the Colombian Gov
eminent is now entirely dissatisfied
with the small amount of the paymen,
to be made to II by the United States
under the terms OF the protocol, which
1t is proposed to use as the basis fol
the treaty. The sum Is s7,000.000. Co
lombia wants at least $4,000, 900
Moreover, the original proposal looked
to a wait for fourteen years before be
ginning the payment of annual rental
the amount of which was to be then fix
Ell by mutual agreement. Colombii
now asks the United States to agree
at once on yearly rental of 100000
which will largely increase the imme
date cost OF the enterprise.

ter OF Newark, who disappeared month
ago and whose clothes were found on
the banks of the Hackensack River, has
been heard from in Sacramento, CaL He
was to have been married this week to
Miss Anna Besch, of Lexington avenue,
Newark, with whose mother he boarded
Before he disappeared Weiss said life
had become so burdensome he was tempt
ed to commit suicide Doubt as to his
having committed suicide was caused by
the fact that no trace of S400 and a
gold watch he owned could be found
Last week it was learned that Weiss
had written from California TO a New
York brewing school asking for a dupli-
cate of his diploma. Relatives have re-
caived letters from him saying he did
not want to get married, and not wish
ing to seem to jilt Miss Besch he tried to
create the impression that he had COM

to complete the two lower floors.
The matron. Mrs. Nelson. will move
into the home to-day. she win spend
the next two weeks arranging the rooms
in the basement and first foor A sewing
society will be formed. to make and mend
clothing for the children.
The Board of Trustees has received
many applications, but is not able to
act on them at present. The four chill
dren in Bayonne are the most needy
and they will be cared for as soon as
possible.

heating apparatus cannot be installed
this winter, as it will cost 81 800 to put
it in. The building will be heated with
stoves.

Mr.. Kloepping Not Likely to
See His Name on the Con-
gressional Ticket.

The lack of knowledge of the require
ments of the election law shown by many
aspirants for public office is indicated by
the following letter received by County
Clerk Maurice Stack this morning.
Hoboken, N. ].

County, n. IT,
Dear Sir-Please place my name on
your Congressional list as Republican
candidate for the office of Congress from

There are no signatures attached to
Mr. Kloepping's petition as required By
law, although fifty signatures are re-
quired for such document. The Sew
eath Congressional district is not in
Hudson county, and if it das the law
does not require the fling of Congress
sional petitions with the County Clerk,
but with the Secretary of State twenty
days before election

Will be obliged to defer his ambitious de-
signs on seat in the next Congress un-

requirements of the law in becoming a

nephew of Surrogate James T. Lillis.
was before Recorder Hauenstein, at
Union Hill, this morning, charged with
refusing to pay his fare on a North
Hudson trolley car.
Mr.. Lillis was on his way home from
West New York last night when arrest
ed. He received a transfer from the
conductor of North Bergen car and
boarding a Union Hill car at Fourth
street and Bergenline avenue, Union Hill,
he presented the transfer. The con-
ductor refused to accept it. He said
Lillis should not have changed cars
where he did, as it was not a transfer
point, and he asked the lawyer for his
fare
Mr.. Lillis insisted that the conductor
must accept the transfer. The latter not
only refused to do so but said he would
have to put Lillis off if he did not at
once pay his fare.
This Lillis refused to do and the con-
ductor stopping his car called Patrolman
Heffron and had Lllis arrested.
The conductor was Thomas Kitson, of
Chestnut street, Weehawken. At the re-
quest of Mr.. Lillis his examination was
postponed until tomorrow night.
Mr.. Lillis brands his arrest as an out
rage.

ONE ON The v. c..
Genial Vice Chancellor Pit
ney Comes to This City
to Try a Lost Cause.
VERY LUCKY LAWYERS
Fortunately for Them the
Case Was Settled Some

VERY LUCKY LAWYERS


Vice Chancellor Pitney was indignant
this morning. On the calendar was GER
tain case set down for trial and two law
yers of this city were on it. These law
yers didn't show up and the Vice Chan
cellor, who had come specially from his
home at Morristown for the trial of the
cause, was consequently not in an amia-
BILE frame of mind when he found they
were absent.
Mr.. Haggerty," his honor said, to the
sergeant-at-arms, twill you please call
up Judge and remind him that /
am here to try his oase?'
The sergeant-at-arms hurried to tele-
phone although the lawyer had his
office on the fourth floor of the CONNER
cial Trust Building, and in few minutes
told the Vice Chancellor that the coun-
sci had an important matter to try in the
District Court.
DISTRICT COURTS BE -
Now the absurdity of any legal gen
tieman paying attention to common low
down district court when the Court of
Chancery is waiting for him cannot be
understood by an Equity judge. Circuit
Courts, Supreme Courts and any old kind
of courts are all very well in their legal
way, but the Court of -
The Vice Chancellor glanced at his
notes, laughed aloud in that pleasing way
he has and said to his stenographer:-

saw wood. Can't ford to buy coal now
adays. and the wood has got to be cut
80 that the women folks can do some
cooking"
That is the way Frederick Wenning,
ST., greeted the guests, whom he had in
vited to attend the celebration Of his
seventy birthday, when they ar
rived at his home on Sunday. To show
that he meant business, and intended
that they should do their share toward
making the dinner success, he marched
them out into the back yard where he
had several cords of wood stacked up,
and set them to work.
Wenning, who lives on Main street,
Union Hill, is spry and active, despite
his advanced years, and he did his share
of the work. He attacked the woodpile
with great energy and heSmade many of
theyounger men hustle to keep pace with
him.

showed when he turned his birthday
celebration inte a wood-cutting bee sim
liar to the kind sometimes held in the
country.
Boys" he said, with broad grin,
Il amt going to work because I want
the wood cut even though / do intend to
burn it until the price of coal drops, but

and have poor appetites. Now, i am
going to give you good dinner and I
do not want to see it wasted. So T have
brought you out here to sharpen up yo9r
appetite SO that you Will appreciate the
good things set before YOU
The crowd enjoyed the sport and the
novelty of the situation. They attacked
the food with a vim and quickly reduced
the size of the pile. After they had done
sufficient work to pay for their dinner
and satisfy Mr.. Wenning, he invited
them into the house. where he made
things exceedingly pleasant for them
Vocal and instrumental music was fol-
lowed by dancing. Mr.. eWnning joining

Hind Wheels of a Car Leave the
Track of the Elevated Rail-
way.

One of the Hill bound cars on the ele-
waited structure of the North Hudson
County Railroad Company ran off the
track at the top of the hill at 11:15
O'Clock this morning and occasioned CON
siderable delay to passengers bound for
the Hill or North Hudson. The accident
occurred at the switch near Ogden ave-
nue..
The hind wheels of the truck of car
No. 156 switched off and landed between
the up and the down tracks on the iron
structure. There were but few passen-
gers on the car, but these were consider
ably excited. Before the car could be
righted almost the entire length of the in
cline to the ferry was stalled with cars.
