A NEW TEMPERANCE SOCIETY.
Bartenders of Jersey City About to Form One.

Jersey City, March 10.-The bartend- CTS of this city are discussing a propo- sition to form a temperance society. There will be a meeting tonight when 1t Is expected the subject will receive consideration. One ol the leaders in the movement is quoted as saying: sI think the idea good one. Why should not bartenders be total abstainers? !? The interests of their employers de- mand that they shall at all times be steady, sober and industrious. Why should bartender be obliged to drink every time he is invited to do so by a customer. It is a pernicious custom. I believe two-thirds of the bartenders are ready to become total abstainers.'

WRIGHT TO BE PROSECUTED.
Justice So Ordered in Chancery Divis-
 ion This Morning.

y ion This Morning.
 London. March 10. Justice Buckley, in the chancery division of the high court of justice this morning, made an order directing the official receiver, as liquidator of the London and Globe Finance corporation, limited, to crim- inally prosecute Whitaker Wright, the we'll known promoter of companies, and untilize the assets Of the London and Globe to pay the costs of the prose cution.
 The demands~for Wright's prosecu- ton have been incessant since the col lapse of the corporation. After the public prosecutor declined to proceed the fund projected at a meeting held in this city January 16 to initiate the prosecution of Wright and others con- nected with the failure was started, but 1t was generally felt that the pro- ceedings ought to be of more official character, hence the application that the receiver be allowed to take action.
 The compulsory liquidation of the London and Globe Finance corporation, limited, by the failure of which con- cern much American money was lost was ordered October 30, 1901. The of ficial receiver announced on August ], 1902 that he had issued summonses against Whitaker Wright and Robert Leman to recover $75O,OO0 in connec- ton with share transactions between the British h-American corporation and the London and Globe. At the same time the receiver said it was not proposed for the present to prosecute the directors of the London and Globe. Some time previous to this a special petition was circulated on the London stock exchange, signed by many influential men, demanding the prosecution of Whitaker Wright as 1t. was considered that the credit of the city and the stock exchange demand ed a thorough investigation of the methods of finance adopted by Wright and his associates. At the meeting held in London January 16 last of sup porters of the movement to initiate the prosecution of Wright and others connected with the failure of the Lon don and Globe it was resolved to raise fund of 5000 for this purpose. Arnold White, the author, who presid- ed said that unless the honor of the administration of English law was to remain under a cloud immediate steps
 must be taken to sift the scandal. The reason the prosecution was not undertaken by the government was because the directors were sheltering themselves behind members of the royal family.
