Troubles Of the Empire Con-
solidated Quick Silver
Mining Co. Aired
In Chancery.

y
Vice Chancellor Stevenson spent this
morning in listening to lawyers rehearse
tn eEmpire Consolidated Quick Silver
Minif Company which owns vast mining
interestin California.
The company which is incorporated un-
der the laws of this State is at present
in the hands of receiver. tits also in
volved in law suit because Riley Bog
CESS, its principal stockholder caused to
be issued $5,OOO,000 worth of new shares
$4,00O,00o of which he had transferred
to himself.
w. J. Paterson and other stock
holders of the company declared that the
stock was issued illegally and have Sc
cured an injunction restraing Mr.. Bog
CESS from issuing the stock.
Meanwhile Mr.. Boggess's stock, con-
sisting of $4,000 shares at par value
Of $40, is lying in safety deposit vault
Of the North American Trust Company
in New York. Recently the shares were
attached by western firms to whom Mr.
Boggess had given assignments. Then
William Huges, a New York capitalist
stepped in and bought Mr.. Boggess's en-
tire interests in the company.
Lawyer Gray, of New York, on behalf
of Mr.. Hughes, asked ViceChancellor
Stevenson this morning to make some
provision for the protection of his. eli
ent's interests Mr.. Gray said he wanted
the s4,000,000 worth of stock now in
Mr.. Boggess's name transferred to Mr..
Gray on the books of the firm. He said
he did not care so much about getting
possession of the stock as he did about
having the fact recorded that the stock
belonged to Mr.. Hughes and not to Mr.
Boggess.
Vice-C Chancellor Stevenson postponed
decision in fhe case until tomorrow. The
court said he did not see no wthe stock
could be transferred to Mr.. Hughes as
long as the firm was in the hands Of a
receiver, and, as it had already been
attached in New York.
Lawyer Charles D. Thompson, of the
firm of Bedle, Edwards & Thompson,
appeared for Mr.. Boggess. He said that
Mr.. Boggess was in California. Mr..
Thompson asked that the case be ad-
journed until his client could be advised
of the intended proceedings. The request
was granted.
Among the lawyers who appeared in
behalf Of creditors were Charles L. Cor
bin and Charles 4. Black

TRENTON, May %, 1903.-Work on
the new home of the New Jersey State
Senate has progressed to such an extent
that the putting on of the roof will be
commenced during the coming week. In
Fact, the concrete freproof part of the
roof is pow being laid and this will be
timed over shortly. The outside brick
work was finished up few days ago,
and all that remains to be done to the
exterior of the building just now is the
connecting corridor by which the new
structure will join with the State House
proper, this corridor to be a continuation
of the corridor leading to the old Senate
and to be directly opposite to the corri-
dor leading to the Assembly Chamber.
1t is proposed to have '.hipped" roof,
to rise to point in two places, namely,
over the Supreme Courtroom and in the
rear. The galvanized iron cornices are
yet to be put on the outside of the new
building, the carving of the capitals of
the entrance having been finished. The
handsome entrance from the State
House grounds stands out prominently.
OF course, the rough casting is yet to
be done, so that the new wing will
conform in color to the rest of the
State House, but this work will be left
to among the last things. Work is now
progressing on the cement flooring of the
first floor, it being the desire to make the
building as thoroughly freproof as posi-
BE.
While work is being rushed ahead with
all possible speed, there is no guarantee
that the new wing will be ready befor
tn first of next aJnuary, the contractors
being under bonds. carrying heavy penal
ties, to have it completed in time for the
neyt session Of the Legislature. Br;lding
experts say that it will be next to impos-
sible to complete the building before
January / and that the contractors will
be extremely fortunate if they can get it
in readiness by the time the next session
opens. Then there are several contingen-
cies which may arise, such as strikes, de-
lay in material or the wrong measure
ments in the imitation marble Innings.
which would cause serious delay at the
last minute and force the contractors to
break their contracts as to finishing the
building on schedule time.
Architect Arnold H. Moses, of Mer-
chantyille, prepared the plans for the
new wing and former Assemblyman
George S. Poole, of Morris County, is
supervisor of the construction. The plans
call for an elaborate Senate Chamber.
and as the work progresses a general
idea of the interior Of the new building
can be secured. The lower floor will be
taken up with the Senate Chamber. with
corridor around it and reception rooms
leading off from the main corridor. On
the second floor will be the gallery look
ing down into the Senate Chamber.

The, RUSSIAN
HORROR
Mass Meeting Last Night In
Temple Tiffereth- Israel
to Express Indigna-
tion.
REY. JOHN. i. SCuDDER'S LETTER
Jews and Christians Unite In
Condemnation Of the
Recent Massacre.
REY. JOHN. /. SCUDDER'S LETTER

Temple Tiffereth- Israel, in Fifth street,
Jersey avenue, was crowded last night
at the meeting called to express indig-
nation at the Russian massacre of Jews
and in aid of the Hebrew sufferers. No
collection was made last night, but the
assemblage was asked to contribute
whatever money they saw fit by leaving
it with Mayor Pagan at the City Hall.
Rabbi Gluckman presided. Rabbi
Klinkelstein, of New York, made the
principal address of the evening. He
denounced the Russian Government for
permitting such an outrage and made an
impassioned plea for aid of the sufferers.
Addresses were also made by Myron
Ernst, Arthur NJ Gray and Edward A.
. Ransom, Jr.
A strong letter from the Rev. John L.
Scudder, of the First Congregational
Church, to Rabbi Gluckmann, was read.
Mr. Scudder expressed regret at being
unable to be present and make an ad-
dress, as he was conducting a special
service in his own church at the same
time In his letter the Rev. Scudder
said;-
"One of the fundamental doctrines of
my creed is that all men are brethren,
be they Jew or Gentle, bond or free,
white or black. My sympathy goes out
to innocent sufferers My Indignation
against the cruel and c6wardly Russians
is at white heat To think that a So
called Christian nation should permit and
encourage such atrocities and that people
on their way from church should be
guilty of murder and assault! 1t is
enough to make Christians blush for
shame all over the earth. The Russians
are not even semi-civilized They are
yet barbarous, upon whom the contempt
of civilization should fall like an avail

 The second round was q draw. Keith CT tried to hurt the other. each desir ing to spare his opponent for slaughter later or. With this object in view they stopped frequently for wind-and beer.
 Tn the third round the contest was declared off and the decision given to BaIsz on . foul. It was the opinion of the referee that Webster had hit his opponent below the belt. Webster said Balsz didn't have any belt or and therefore the decision was clearly an unjust one. so he got mad and said he wouldn't fight any more if they wanted him to
