FOUR BuRGLARIES.

Four burglaries occurred downtown
last night.
The cigar store of Englebrecht & Ross
kany, No. 25S Washington street, and
the adjoining shoe store were both enter
ed. The cigar store was robbed of an
overcoat and other articles, and the shoe
store of eleven pairs of shoes. The
thieves entered by scaling fence in the
rear of No. "a York street. The shoe
store is run by Samuel Swartz. The
goods taken from both stores were valued
at ss9.
Summerield's grocery store, at No. 81
Newark avenue, was robbed of So in
cash.
The offices of the Florodora Tag Com
pany, in the basement of the Hudson
County National Bank Building, were
entered by smashing one of the large
windows, and the thieves got away with
bundle containing 100000 coupons.

them forwarded to the Sfate treasurer.
When the fund was under criticism last
spring, at the time the bill directing the
return to the fund of the money which
had been deducted by the State treasurer
for the expenses Of administering it; sew
eral of the members expressed an inten-
ton Of leaving the organization and re
fusing to pay further the assessment of
one per cent. of their salaries.
The question whether a teacher who
had joined the fund could. without ceas-
ing to be a teacher in the public schools
of this State, discontinue his or her mem
bership in the organization and he re
lieved of the one per cent. assessment
was referred to the attorney general He
returned a written opinion to the effect
that the membership sis contracted re-
lation, upon the continuance of which the
lying and that he could find nothing
in the act which would justify the CON
clusion that enc can voluntarily withdraw
after once membership is entered into
1t is considered a hardship that if a
teacher shall for any cause desire to sew
must continue to contribute to its treas
ury one per cent. of his or her salary.
and the Legislature is to be asked to
amend the act, so that when the teach
er withdraws. his or her assessments
shall cease There is a provision in the
law to the effect that any teacher who
has contributed to the fund for five years
or more and who shall cease to teach in
the public schools of this State. shall re-
ceive back one-half of the amount paid
by him or her into such fund, without in
terest.
Another matter which Mr.. Bissell pro-
poses to bring before the State Teachers
Association at the coming annual meet
ing is a circular which was sent out to
the voters of the State during the recent
campaign. This contained alleged utter
| ances of Edward G. Stokes and Charles
G. Black, the two GubernatoFial candi-
dates, on the proposition of the teachers
that the State law should prescribe that
no public school principal or teacher shall
be removed or dismissed or reduced in
rank or salary except for just cause, on
written charges and after a fair trial; al
so the utterances of the same two candi-
dates on the proposition to have the State
Treasurer administer the Teachers Re
firing Fund without cost to the fund, the
object Of the circular being to show that
Mr.. Black was the friend of the teachers
on those two questions and that Mr.
Stokes was not. Mr.. Bissell proposes to
Introduce in the meeting resolution dis
claiming any connection of the associa-
tion with these Outrageous circulars, y
as he calls them.

FIRE IN A MILLINERY STORE.

A fire that did considerable damage
broke out at half-past nine o'clock this
morning in the millinery store Of Daniel
Danwicz, on the first floor of the three
story brick building No. 400 Grove street.
The light millinery material with which
the store was stocked burned rapidly,
and much Of the stock was burned before
the fremen reached the scene in response
to an alarm from fire box No. IS, which
was pulled by a citizen. Meanwhile the
occupants of the upper floors and those
in the tenements were greatly excited,
and sought the street in safety.

STOKES'S SLATE
Lewis Again Doomed for
Chancery Clerk = Gray
Named as Secretary
and Frelinghuy-
sen Aide.

NSpeckai TO -Ine Jersey lily News
TRENTON, Dec. II, 1904. Persons
who are close to Governor-elect Stokes
say that he has about made up his mhd
as to whom he will appoint as private
secretary and his personal military aide,
and whom he will recommend to Cover
nor Murphy for Clerk in Chancery, when
he himself lays down that Office.
According to these men, the slate just
now contains the name of Edward w.
Gray, formerly Of Newark, but now of
Trenton, for private secretary; Joseph 5.
Frelinghuysen, of Raritan, Somerset
County, for personal aide, and former
Assemblyman Vivian NJ. Lewis, of Pas
sale, for the Chancery clerkship.
Mr.. Gray is a newspaper writer and
for several years business manager of
the Newark Advertiser" He was in
charge of the library department of the
Republican State Committee during the
last campaign. When the last Legisla-
ture authorized the Governor to appoint
commission to inquire into the housing
of the poor in the State and to recon-
mend whatever legislation they might
deem necessary on the subject, Mr.. Gray
was made one of the commissioners.
Then when the Legislature. on the COM
missions report, passed the present tene-
ment-house law, he was appointed by
Governor Murphy one of the board, Gre
ated by the act for which he is still a
member.
Mr.. Frelinghuysen is nephew of
Frederick I. Frelinghuysen, who was
United States Senator from this State
from 1866 to 1869, and from 1871 to
1877. Later he became Secretary of
State in the Cabinet of President Arthur
Joseph Frelinghuysen is the chairman
" tiO A9olHcistt AepuuilcdI county COLL
mittee. He has had several years ex-
perience in military matters as an officer
both in the National Guard and the
Spanish war.
Mr.. Lewis is one of Paterson's leading
lawyers. He was a member of the As
semhl;as of 1900 1000 ana 1ao1 and was
one of the leaders of his party in the
Legislature. 1t is said that he has the
Endorsement of former Governor John w.
Griggs, and that his appointment would
be something in the nature of a peace
offering. There has been much friction
among the Republicans Of Passaic since
John r. Dryden was elected United
States Senator and John w. Griggs was
defeated for the same Office.

ERIE SHOULD PAY
Mayor Pagan Tells the
Street & Water Board
Barnum Street Is
Worth $4,000

Mayor Pagan this morning replied to
the Street and Water Boards letter ask
ing advice as to the application of the
Erie Railroad Company for the vacation
of Barnun street. In his letter the May
or says in part
The right to pass through these streets
particularly with heavy trucks. is of adj
vantage to some of our citizens, because
they avoid for distance the necessity of
travel upon Payonia avenue, upon which
there are car tracks,and which is at times
more or less congested with traffic. The
vacation of these streets will also enable
the railroad company to transfer certain
bands now locally taxable at local rates.
into second-class railroad property, thus
lessening the city tax revenue.
l am advised by the. corporation coun-
sci that your board can lawfully exact a
money or other consideration for the va
cdtloH OF these SueetS-
Whether or not compensation should
be demanded for the vacation of a street,
in my Judgment, should not be deter
mined as a general principle, but under
the circumstances appertaining to each
particular application.
7 ,s,1I- r mt of
compensation should be arrived at by
taking into account the following consid-
erations:-The representatives of the
railroad company offered to pay the city
$4,000 for the vacation of these streets,
and also offered to sign an agreement to
continue as water customer of Jersey
City. BY such vacation, the railroad
company would acquire the right to take
over and incorporate into its yard the
land embraced in these streets, which is
eight-tenths $40 of an acre of land
The value of this land, on the basis of
fotuco sihu dcsCSSLucitn LII lH0 f1cil1tS, 49,
in my opinion, at least $4,000. From
this amount / think it fair that a deduc-
ton should be made, by reason of the
fact that the interests of the city in the
streets is an easement and not an owner
ship, and by reason of the agreement as
to water. | think one-half of this amount,
or ST. 800, would be fair compensation
to the city. If any private owner pos
sessed this easement, it is plain, that the
railroad company would have to pay, and
doubtless would pay, much. more than
this sum for its release
Under the circumstances of the case,
therefore advise you that you should
decline to vacate these streets, except
upon an agreement with the railroad
company to pay to the city at least the
sum of $1,000 in cash, and to agree that
it will continue to take water from Jer-
sey City for at least two years to come,
at such rates as may be charged other
similar customers .
