TRANSFERS DISCUSSED

committee OF the IWelfth ward I'M
proyement Association, consisting of
President George Hoehl, Vice-President
Louis 'Dorbecker and Secretary Freder-
lex Bugasch. last evening called upon
Mr.. W. w. Wheatley, General Manager
of the Street Railway Department of
the Public Service Corporation, to dis
cuss the subject of better trolley facilities
for the Hudson City residents.
Though Mr.. Derbecker was chairman
of the committee, President Hoehl acted
as general spokesman.
Mr.. Wheatley was to meet the commit
tee at FIVE o'clock, but was detained at
meeting of the Common Council of Eliza
beth.
The subject of transfers was first dis
cussed. Mr.. Wheatley promised that
transfers should be issued east, south
and west at Five Corners, but the trans
fers will read ''fer Jersey City cars
only" as the cars on the Newark Turn
/ pike line are small and those coming in
from Newark are generally crowded. 1t
is possible that transfers may be issued
west. as the cars going out to Newark
are not so crowded. This arrangement
is to be carried out until through route
: from Hudson City direct to business CEN
sire of the city can be established, Mr..
I Hoehl agreed with Mr.. Wheatley that
through route would be good thing.
The transfer system at Five Corners will
Z go into effect August 1.
Mr.. Bugasch asked about running cars
all night on Summit avenue. Mr.. Wheat
ley said he could not promise that yet.
The issuing of transfers from the Ruth
erford line to cars coming down Central
and New York avenues was also discus
sed. as was the establishment of trans
fer station at Palisade avenue and Con-
Rress street
Mr.. Wheatley said that that problem,
as well as others, had vet to be studied
out. but that attention was being given
the subject.
Other matters discussed included the
crush at the Heboken ferries during rush
hours. Mr.. Wheatley said that condit-
ions of passenger traffic there would be
relieved as soon as the company could
secure. new cars, orders for one hundred
and fifty of which had already been plac-
ed. and goodly number of which are to
be put on Jersey City and Hoboken
lines.
As to the alleged shaky condition OF
the iron structure leading from the Hobo
ken ferry to the brow of the hill, near
the brow, Mr.. Wheatley declared that 1T
s had been examined by competent engi-
neers and pronounced perfectly safe.
Fl Some of these engineers were not in the
regular employ of the company and We're
not therefore. biased. The committee
from the Twelfth Ward Association,
however. insisted that the structure was
unsafe. and Mr. Wheatley promised that
another examination would be made.

ALDERMEN TO
INVESTIGATE
Board Calls q Special Meet
ing to Probe the
Charges Against
Farrell and
Kelly.
ARE THEY TRUMPED UP 2
Excise Board Last Night Re
/ fused a License to Farrell
Accused Men Assert
Their Innocence.
ARE THEY TRUMPED UP 2.


Mayor Fagan's Excise Board last
night refused to renew the saloon IL
cense of Alderman Bernard Farrell.
The Republican minority of the Board
of Aldermen has called special meet
ing to investigate charges of extortion
on the part of Building Inspector Edward
Kelly.
1t is eyident. that the Republicans are
going to make all the political capital
possible out of the charges against the
Building Inspector and the accused al
derman. These charges, it is claimed.
have been trumped up for that purpose.
Alderman Farrell declares that he will
take the matter of the refusal of the
Excise Board into the courts if neces-
sary, and thus secure renewal of his
license, as no charge has ever been
made against the responsibility of his
saloon at First and Grove streets. His
place of business is one of the better
class of cafes of the city and has never
been known as resort for any disrepu-
table persons.
The call for the special meeting was
handed to Clerk O'Donnell for notifcatio
of all the members. 1t reads as follows:
I'VE, the undersigned aldermen, de-
sire you to call special meeting of the
Board of Aldermen, to be held Thurs.
day evening, July 16, 1903, at $50
o'clock p NJ Said special meeting to
be called in accordance with the power
vested in the Board according to sec
tion % of the original charter, 1871,
for the purpose of investigating the
charges which have been made against
the Building Inspector, Kelly, and Alder
man Bernard Farrell, of the First Ward,
Jersey City.
yours truly,
@DANIEL P. HOLMES,
GEO. "A. ROWLAND,
seth A. CHESTER"
1t is said there is no precedent for
such a proceeding as that of the Board
investigating the doings of one of its
members. whatever power it may have
in dealing with an employe.
The documents furnished by Mayor
Fagau to Prosecutor Speer are being
formulated for the members of the Board
by City Attorney Carey.
It is believed that the Democratic
Aldermen are just as anxious to have
the matter sifted as the Republican
members are. believing the charges to
have been made merly for political effect
and tl6at an investigation will result
in the exoneration of both Messrs. Far
rell and Kelly.
The men who charge them with extor-
tion are ]. D. Gehrs, Samuel H. Rubine
and o. H. Hammerquist.

Green's Brigade at Charlottesville.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: At Chan
cellorsville, Green's New York Brigade
was in an extremely perilOus position, be-
ing nearly surrounded by masses of vic
torious Confederates. The 1O2d N. Y,
having changed front, battled fercely with
the Overpowering enemy, and slowly fell
back upon a rampant of FURNISHED guns
and glistening bayonets, the Goth N. Y.
being behind the rampant" Knowing the
peril of the situation, Col. Redington had
formed his line, without orders, and grim
ly waited until the 1O2d N. Y, fighting
with dubbed muske.s, should uncover his
front. When our regiment had cleared
the muzzles of the Goth N. Y, they poured
a destructive fire into the massed COnfed-
crates that staggered them. They rallied,
however, and death dealing volleys were
fired by both lines, they being at close
quarters. Then. above the din of battle,
was heard the clarion voice of Col. Red
ington: "Charge" The struggle was ter
rife. The Goth and 102d N. Y. dashed
into the Confederate lines, prodding with
bayOnets and striking with clubbed guns.
1t was pandemonium. Seeing that over
whelming numbers would pinion his men
to the ground, Col. Redington ordered a
withdrawal The enemy followed closely,

the water-and A. ]. followed the ad-
vance.
Banks arrived near Pleasant Hill from
Grand Ecore on the 7th. The troops had
made slow progress during that day on
account of the heavy rain that had pre-
vailed and the intolerable condition of the
roads. On the 7th Lees cavalry met n
body of rebel cavalry, which they attacked
sharply, dashing furiously upon it, driv-
ing it in complete rout to st. Patrick S
Bayou, distance of 10 miles, inflicting
a loss upon the routed troopers of 80 men
killed and wounded.
On the morning of the Sth Lee again

miles south of the town of Mansfield.
