ALL Want PLUMs
Hungry Republicans Are
Hustling for Jobs in Tax
and City Collectors
Offices The Tax
Rates.

The Tax Board after fddling for
many moons has not been able to strike
tax rate up to noon today. It was
officially stated that the Board would
not meet this afternoon for the purpose
of formally fixing a rate.
The Republican Commissioners have
found the task a difficult one of getting
the rate down to 27.90. which they as
sured the public before election would be-
the figure for 1902-1903.
The Commissioners are thinking over
time nowadays of the great slaughter
which they will make in their staff in the
near future. 1t has been decreed that
the clerks, particularly the Democrats,
will have to walk the plank.
They have been besieged by hungry
Republicans who are of the opinion that
they will make capable assistants. Mayor
Fagan fayors clean sweep in the Office
by January 1.
The Republicans are tickled over the
prospects of getting whack at the cler-
ical force in the City Collectors office
on the first of the year, when Robert
Davis will be succeeded by somebody
whom Mayor Pagan will appoint
Tax Commissioner Degnan thinks he
ought to have the job because he>is a
warm personal friend of His Honor The
Republican leaders. it is said. believe
that the office should go to a redhot party
man.

SPLIT over
The PASTOR !?
Wealthy Members Of St.
Mathews German Luth-
eran Congregation
Stay at Home.
REV. BAvENDAM OPPOSED.
Some Talk of Organizing An
other Socisty aad Blilding
a Church.

AT the morning and evening sessions
of the st. Matthew's Lutheran Chuleh
YESTERDAY an unaercalrS.it of excitement
was noticed. As each one came in i was
a signal fer turning heids to see wh)
1t was. The reason of this Is the di-
Fersity of opinion in the CONGREGATION
regarding the selection of a paster.
The Rev. Mr.. Beyendam was elected
pastor at meeting held last We.aes-
day By majority. although he was op-
posed by many of the old and substantial
members of the congregation.
Mr.. Bavendam had been appointed for
one year assistant to the Rev. Mr.. Peer
sen, former pastor of the church. Mr.
Petersen resigned last September and
Mr.. Bavendam's term exp.rel last
month
When the question of another pastor
arose many of the older members OBJ
jected to Mr.. Bavendam, but the younger
elemen were in his favor and being in
tho majority elected him.
AS soon as his election was announced
thosed opposed to Inn declared their in
tention of withdrawing from the church,
and, if necessary. building new cne.
Those who signiied this intention did not
attend any of yesterdays services. This
element IN opposition comprises many of
the. wealthiest families in the church.
and should they permanently withdraw
it would cause much embarrassment
There would be no doubt of the fnan-
cial success of the new church is one is
decided upon.
Several members of the opposition were
seen Today and signified their intention Of
remaining out of the present church
while the Rev. Mr.. Bavendam holds the
pastorship. sa

DIVER LOOKING I
FOR A LEAK
tits in a 36-inch Main Some
where in the Hacken-
sack River.
ANTICS OF CEMENT PIPE
A Small Crack Causes a Loss
OF SIS. Worth of Water
Per Day.
ANTICS OF CEMENT PIPE

Chief Engineer Charles A. Van Keu-
rem discovered yesterday leak in one
of the two thirty-six inch mains in the,
Hackensack River. His tests indicated
that 10000 gallons of water are escap-
ing every twenty-four hours into the
river, meaning financial loss to the
City of $1o day.
1t leak is small one 1t is located
about one-third way across the river
from the western bank. The noise of
the water as it is forced from the old
pipe may be plainly heard on the surface,
although the man is on the bottom of
the river, at a depth of 80 or 40 feet.
The leak is not sufficiently serious to
warrant shutting off the water that flows
through the main.
The main is an old timer. 1t lies on
the river bed which settles from time
to time. The shifting of the foundation
naturally causes a great strain on the
cement pipe which has sprunk aleak on
several occasions.
Mr.. Van Keuren has a. diver at work
trying to locate the leak. His labors are
confined to the period between tides. He
is only able to prosecute his search about
two hours at time. When he dis
covers the cause of all the trouble he
will plub up the crack with lead. The
Chief Engineer, believes that the pipe
will be made whole again by Wednes-
day or Thursday.
There are two s36-inch mains and one
20-inch main running across the Hack
ensack's river bed.

NEW JERSEYS GUNS
Part of Big BattIeship's Arma-
ment to Be Made
Near Boston.

BOSTON, Nov. 8. 1902.-The stern
post for the battleship New Jersey is be-
ing finished in the Fore, River shipyard
machine shop preparatory to putting it
into position at once. 1t is in one casting
weighing eleven tons. The battleship's 5
protective deck was about one-third laid
last week and the hull plating Of the for
ward section of the vessel has been well
started since the stem was set up.
1t is very likely that at least part of
the New Jerseys armament, which is to
make her one of the most formidable ma
val fighters in the world, win Le the pro-
duct of the same works that are building
her. The United States Government has
just contracted with the Fore River Com
pany for 20 sets of rapid fire guns of the
latest model.
Ten sets are to be six inch, 50-calibre
guns, which are the most approved pat
tern for the main batteries of battIeships
and cruisers and are the largest pieces
Of modern ordnance ever made in New
England. The other GO sets are three
inch 50-calibre guns such as are used in
the secondary batteries of the larger YES
sells. Both types have proved very useful
and are considered much more effective
than the old fashioned guns of larger
size.
The guns will be forged, oil tempered,
'annealed to harden them, bored. and
turned at Fore River and then sent to
the shops at the Washington Navy Yard
where all Of the naval ordance is finished.

nesday by Coroner William n. Parslow,
who would hold the office until re
count Of the boxes in question was made
and the result officially announced.
In the Camden case, when similar
condition existed, Supreme Court Justice
Garrison refused to order the re-opening
of a ballot box in order to obtain the du-
plicate of the tally sheet which should
have been filed with the County Clerk,
and the members of the County Election
Board were for time in quandary as to
what course to pursue.
CANVASS PROCEEDS.
While the matter was under discussion
today duplicates of the missing Hudson
returns signed by the election officers
We're received, and shortly before noon
the canvass of the returns from the en-
tire county was begun.
The returns on nearly all the other
candidates on the different tickets are
still incomplete, and more than a dozen
voting districts in different sections of
the County have failed to make any re-
turn of the vote on the Freeholder prop
osition. In the Second Ward, Weehaw-
ken, where over 200 votes We're cast
against and about 20 in favor of reduc-
ingt he board to nine members, the re-
turns was locked in the box, and a sim
liar condition exists in many other
places.
The vote, however, against the accpet-
ance of the Middlesex act of 1900 that
has been filed is so overwhelming that
The returns from the missing districts
could not change it.
The returns filed by the Bayonne cleo
tion officers are probably the worst of
any section of the County. They are
marked by erasures and interlneations,
and asthe result in many cases in that
city are very close several recounts are
expected.

take the eatA--efe Office before Judge
Blair in the County Clerks Office at 10
o'clock tomorrow morning. He will en-
nesday.
The ceremony attending the induction
into office of new Sheriff is simple
one. After the oath is administered he
and his sureties sign the necessary bond
which is passed upon by the officiating
Judge The new Sheriff then announces
the appointment of his Under Sheriff,
who is thereupon sworn in.
The list of those whose names will ap-

made official announcement of the fact
it seems to be generally understood that
the present efficient Under-Sheriff, John
J. Heavey will be reappointed as will
his assistants, n. P. Wedin, Jr. and
F. C. Crandall.
The County Board of Elections had
much. trouble this morning when it en-
deavored to get at the official vote for

and this vote for She riff was an
nounced:-

showing Zeller to have a majority of 49,

two election boards in Bayonne came
near resulting in a similar condition in
this county to that threatened in Camden

coroner of the County will assume charge
of the Sheriff's Office Wednesday, because
of the inability of the County Board of
