LOOKING AHEAD
O'Connor Delays Taking New
Job SO as to Have One
Two Years Hence.


Much surprise has been expressed in the
City Hall at the continued absence Of
Joseph A. OConnor, private secretary to
Mayor Fagan. Mr.. OConnor should have
assumed his duties on January /, when
Mayor Pagan was inaugurated, but he
did not. and he has not yet shown any
inclination to take up the burden of Off
cial life James Collins. who was private
secretary to Mayor Hoos. is continuing to
act instead of Mr. O'Connor.
When Mr.. O'Connor was notified of his
appointment he thought he would have to
leave the Commissary Department of the
Pennsylvania Railroad at once. He felt
that if he did SO he would endanger his
chances of returning to his place in the
hour of need, and indeed he was given to
understand by his superiors that unless
he finished up the business he had in hand
he could expect no more favors, but if he
stayed he could get a job TWO years from
now. Accordingly Mr. O'Connor arranged
with Secretary Collins to continue until
next Monday, when the new secretary
will be On deck, ii is said.
In the course of a conversation between
two men the other evening one said:-''I
never thought the Mayor and Mr.. O'con-
nor were acquainted"
They weren't O'Connor told me that
he had never known Mayor Fagan until
some time after election" the other re-
plied.

SMALLPOX PRECAUTIONS.
Free Library Employees Vac
cinated to Prevent any
Worry.

Although the trustees of the Free Pub
lie Library believe there is no danger to
library employees or readers from small
pox, in view of the general scare they
think it best to take every precauton
DR.. Gordon says there is little or no dam
ger. Since 1880 four million volumes have
been circulated for home reading, and
there has never been a case of any disease
caught from them.
The library is in daily communication
with the County and City Boards Of
Health They report every case Of any
contagious disease and if a book has been
in a house where the disease was it is
destroyed Immediately
DR.. Gordon says only one kind of dis
ease of a contagious quality has prevail
ed among the employees of the library:
matrimony, much to the annoyance of
the trustees
At three O'Clock this afternoon the en-
ployes were vaccinated. This was done
not because there was any fear of spread
ing the disease in the library but TO pro-
tect the employees going back and forth
between their homes and the library.

NOW THE WOMEN
Mayor Pagan Alarmed Because
He Didn't Bounce the
Scrubbers.

There was dissatisfaction among the
women of the Fifth ward when they
learned that the scrub women at the CITY
Hall were not bounced. The poor women
of Mayor Fagan's ward were told with
out regard to numbers, that they would
be given jobs. AS result of the refusal
to make way for them there is a great
deal of roasting going on in Mayor
.Fagan's neighborhood. The Mayor alone
is blamed. The women whom he made
promises to declare that he held their
fate in his hands. They say the action
of the City Hall Commissioners in falling
to displace the old employees is an act OF
the Mayor directly
One of Mayor Fagan's campaign man
ayers in the Fifth ward was greatly ex-
ercised over this kick. He said:-'M Mayor
Fagan is hardly to be blamed, He did
everything he could to have the women
discharged, but he was so fiercely COM
batted that he could not carry out the
plan to assist his neighbors at the ex-
pense of Others

DIRECTORS Dine
Present Mr.. Mulvaney
With a Handsome
Umbrella.

The retiring members of the Board OF
Education dined last night at the Carteret
Club. ExAMayer Hoos and Superintend-
ent Henry Snyder were guests of honor
AIessgs. Suecow and Tracey were absent.
The dinner was an informal and g most
enjoyable affair. The ex-Directors gath
cred probably for the last time as a body.
For several hours they sat about a festive
board. while they chatted over work
which they aS well as the public knew
was most faithfully performed.
Ex-President John j. Mulvaney. who
presided, was presented with handsome
silver handled SIX umbrella. Compliments
were the order of the evening The e1-
president wac lauded by all his old con-
freres and the ex-Mayor was the recipient
of praise from those whom he selected
for his last term TO manage the eduaa-
tional affairs of the city. The most
prominent theme of conversation, how
ever. was the pet hobby of the old Board,
that politics should be kept out of the
schools. Mr.. Snyder took occasion to say
that in both terms of Mr.. Hoos as Mayor
he saw no occasion TO criticize the Mayor
official acts pertaining to the educational
department. He also declared that he
had not been asked during his career as
superintendent to do anything that was
not for the best interests of the depart
ment.
Director John H Ward made the pres
entation speech when Mr.. Mulvaney was
presented with the umDreia.
Director Lewis was praised by several
for his splendid work as the head of the
Finance Committee. In the course of q
speech in which he threw bouquets a
many of the members, he took occasion
TO defend the Stokes act and thanked
President Muiyaney for the part he took
in testing the act.
DR.. Egbert was given credit for having
introduced the present effective system
of appointment of teachers by merit, and
Director Witt was considered a lucky
member of the old Board in having Sc
cured such good school house for the
Greenyille section.
Dr. Culver took occasion to compliment
Architect Rowland on his work in de-
signing some of the best school houses
of any city in the Union. Clerk James
Wiseman and his assistant, Mr.. Schroe-
der. were comp,imented by several Of the
retiring members.
Exl4Iayor Hoosiss opinion was echoed
by ex-Director Birdsail and other speak
ers to the effect that the Board was one
of the most representative Boards that
ever conducted the educational depart
ment of the eity-every class of citizens
Mr.. iHoos was thanked for securing at
least a new grammar school for the Third
ward.

Board of Managers.

The Board of Education that has been

meeting tonight and after approving the
minutes will pass out of existence to be
succeeded by Mayor Fagan's Republican
Board. The new Board will organize and
lay out plan of action for its term.
The most important business will be the
election of President There are now
but two candidates in the field They are
John IT. Ward Of the Third ward and
James G. Egbert of the Twelfth ward.
Director Lewis was also q candidate, but
he has been forced out Of the race and
the choice viii undoubtedly lie between
Directors Ward and Egbert with the
chances in favor Of the latter. Mr.. Egg
bert is considered a good man for the
office because he fas been in the Board
longer than Mr.. Ward and has always
been most enthusiastic worker in edu-
cation matters. He finished his third
year as director last May and his term
was extended by the Meeker act UP to
the first of the present year
Mr.. Ward finished his second year last
May and his term was also extended.
Another reason that makes Mr. Egbert

Mrs. veneedora Chartrand, who shot
and killed her husband. John Chartrand.
at the Hoboken Curling Rink on October
81 last, was this morning adjndsed in
sane by Judge Blair, sitting in the Court
Of Common Pleas She win be removed
to the Morris Plains Asylum for the In
sane as soon as the officials of that in
stitution are satisfied that the outbreak
of smallpox in the county jail here is at
an end and there is no danger Of con-
tagion.
On application of Prosecutor Erwin,
Judge Blair. in accordance with the
recommendation Of the Grand jury made
IN ito recent preaentment to the Court
fixed this morning for the inquiry into
the question of the sanity of Mrs. Chart
rand. By reason of the fact that the
Court, from what it had learned of the
case, was satisfied that the woman was
insane, it was not deemed necessary TO
summon a jury to act on the question
The inquiry was conducted in Judge
Blair's chambers behind closed doors
Mrs. Chartrai1d was not present, as u was
not deemed necessary and because OF the
quarantine established at the jail II was
not though advisable to have her brought
into court.
in the interest of Mrs. Chartrand and
Prosecutor Erwin represented the state
The only other person present. aside from
the witnesses, was Court Stenograpfler
MGser.
Dr.. julius Zeneek, OF Hoboken, testi-
fed that he had treated Mrs. Chartrand
for eighteen months before the shoo tin G
of her husband. He said that she hao
both decisions and hallucinations. Her
head wac abnormally large, and at times
when he was treating her she would COM
plain that the medicine he was giving
was making 1t so small that people noticed
it, He recited many other instances hat
tended to show that for some time be-
fore the tragedy Mrs. Chartrand WaS not
in her right mind.
DR.. John D. McClll testified that he mad
examined Mrs Chartrand in the county
JAIL He said she was afflicted with
melancholia with deluSions. The witness
said that the woman was undoubtedly IN
sane at the time he examined her and
he believed that that insanity had ante
dated the shooting some time, and that
she was not mentally responsible at the
time of the commission of the crime.
The affidavit of County Physician
Charles B. Converse setting forth his
opinion that Mrs. Chartrand was insane
and had been in that condition for some
time was then read To the Court, after
which Mrs. Harroum, the mother Of the
unfortunate woman. testified TO her
daughters decisions and haiiucinati0nS
for several years prior to the tragedy
Judge Blair said he was satiSed from
the testimony that Mrs Chartrand was
not in condition to stand trial for her
crime and ordered her removal TO the
State asylum as soon as practicable.
