BENNY
PUSHES BLACK BOOM.
Believes the Tax Commissioner
will Get GubernatorlaI Nomi-
nation.

Jersey City, July 12:-Oongressman
Allan Benny has come out III emphatic
words for Charles o. Black for
Governor. He said he believed Mr..
Black would get the Democratic
nomination and that he would be
elected.
"Uharles @. Black, is a high. class
man, "said the Congressman, "and he
stands for an issue as perhaps no other
available man in the State stands for
it. | meal the issue of equal taxa
ton. The fight in Now Jersey next
fall will be made on that issue. l
understand that both PARTIES are to
put it into their platforms, but equal
taxation with tho Republicans 10 a
convenionce, or an issue forced upon
them, evidently against their will"
Ex-Mayor Egbert Seymour, of
Bayonne, who was present as Mr..
Benny spoke, had this to say:
BLACK suits me to death. | think
he is the strongest man the Democrats
could nominate. Almost every Demo-
crat / have talked with entertained
tho same opinion of him. l don't
think there is room for doubt as to
his election.
The Black boom has taken hold of
Hudson County in earnest. Robert
Davis is for Black, and oil the lessor
Democratic leaders are falling over
each other to get in the Black band
wagon.
Commissioners Black was asked If
he would discuss the Gubernatoripl
situation. He replied that ifo bud
nothing TO say.
From good authority 1t was learned
that several weeks ago q delegation
of Democratic leaders from South
Jersey called upon Mr.. Black ana
asked if his mans might be used in
connection with the nomination for
Governor. Mr.. Black replied that he
would submit that matter to tho
Judgment Of the leaders Intensely os
and the Democratic voters generally.
He was not u self-soeking candidate,
he told his visitors, but that it the
nomination came to him as q call
from his party he would accept 1T.
The delegation went away, and the
next day theBlack boom was launched
in q dozen counties.

HAD JURY TO
DECIDE CASE.
Discussion Over Purchase Of
Store Left to Board Of ArbIt-
ration.

Two weeks .ago Morris Goldberg, of
New York, came to this city to pur-
chase n place of business and, after
looking around for some time, he
decided he would like the hardware
store owned by Samuel Kaplan, ut
1886 State street. He asked the price
and, it is alleged, was told $500, and
he agreed to pay it. He gave 500 as
a security and was to come here to-
day with the remaining $l00, so il il
declared.
About 10 O'Clock this morning
Goldberg got in town, and after look
ing over the store he throught it
looked rather slim, so he went to
Kaplan's house, at 1913 State street,
and he claims that he found ri num-
Der Of articles which had been sold
to him, in the possession of Kaplan.
When asked by a News reporter how
he could tell them he said that they
had all been marked by him the day
he had MAIDS the bargain.
Goldberg refused to pay the rest of
the money unless Kaplan returned tho
goods. This Kaplan is said to have
refused to do saying that they be-
longed in tho house and had not been
in the store.
Finally they agreed to let a jury OF
their own creed decide which was the
owner of tho goods. The jury is com :
posed of twelve men, among them
two are rabbis and tho rest mer-
chants. The jury is in session at the
home of Max Josleson, State street,
IN tho Haney building, and has been
considering the matter for several
hours.
