OFFICIAL COMMUNICATIONS.
From the Corporation Counsel:-
To the Honorable the Board of Finance
of Jersey City
Gentlemen--In reply to your request
for my opinion as to the power of your
Board in the matter of the issuing of
bonds for the sonctruction of sewers, /
have to say
That Chapter 43 of the Laws of 1900
authorizes the city to issue bonds for the
purpose of,rebuilding defective sewers to
the amount not exceeding $4,000. Chap
ter 36 Of the Laws of 1903 provides that
when ever the proper Board shall adopt
a resolution declaring that any sewer in
the city is defective or insufficient for the
proper drainage of the section of the city
in which the sewer is laid, the proper
Board may provide for the enlargement
of any such sewer and for the building
and construction of additional and reliey-
may be issued to the extent of not more
than $75, 900 in any year. The act also
provides that the cost of rebuilding the
sewer or of constructing any additional
or relieving sewer may be assessed upon
the lands in the vicinity thereof.
In addition there is an act passed in
1902. with which your Board is familiar,
authorizing the issuance of 100000 of
bonds for any purpose for which money
may be placed in the tax levy
Under the last of the foregoing acts, /
am of the opinion that your Board would
hayegpower to issue bonds for the con-
struction of new sewers to the amount
limited in said acts, and under the first
and second of said acts I am of opinion
that your Board would have the power
to reconstruct defective sewer and to
construct any additional sewer which
would be necessary for the relief of the
said defective sewer or the territory
which it was built to SERVE, to the extent
of S75, 900 a year.
Respectfully submitted

 Washington. Jan. 11.-It Is learned here that in 1898 Mrs Jack Gardner of Boston began the importation of sculp- ture. paintings and other works of art which were admitted free of duty on the ground that they were intended for public exhibition. It is understood that the importation aggregated about $1.000,000. About a month or more ago the treasury department began to re- ceive complaints from citizens of Ros- ton the effect that while the pictures and works of art were supposed to be on exhibition they were unable to see them, and that the facts were that the exhibition halls in which the works of art were placed were opened to the pub lie only few hours each month during the winter season, and then only on the payment of admission fee.
 The matter was referred to special agents of the treasury department who went to Boston and made an investi- gat1on. The facts were then placed be- fore the department of justice, and an opinion asked as to whether Mrs. Gard neer had complied with the letter and the spirit of the law in opening her gall leries to the public. The department placed the matter in the hands of the United States attorney in Boston who reported that the law had been violated. Proceedings were about to be instituted when Mrs. Gardner paid the duties un- der the law, amounting to about $20O, ,000. This payment, it is understood, was made about three months ago.

MULLAH'S FORGE SMASHED.

Alden, Arabia. Jan. ,11.-An engage ment in Somaliland between a British force and the forces of the Mad MuIlah has resulted in a severe defeat of the latter, who lost one thousand men kill ed. The British had two officers killed and eight officers severely wounded.
 London, Jan. 1.-The war office to- night gave out the following dispatch, which had been received from Major General Egerton, commanding the Somaliland expedtionary forces, and which is dated from Jidballi, Somali land, January Il:
 Advanced this morning twelve miles to Jidballi. First brigade commanded by Manning. second brigade under Faskin and mounted troops under Ken na. Total strength of the regulars, D. 200, irregulars 1000 Jidballi held by 5000 dervishes. Mounted troops envel- oped enemy's right. and the infantry advanced within seven hundred yards of his position. Dervishes advanced, but were unable to face frontal fire. coupled with flank attack Dervishes killed estimated at one thousand, most ly in the pursuit. Many prisoners and four hundred rifles taken.
 q regret to report that two officers of regulars were killed and nine officers wounded; five of the rank and file wounded; of native troops seven killed and sixteen wounded; of irregulars two killed and two wounded. Am inclined to think that this is the Mullah's main force. The Mullah himself was not present, but was expected at Jidballi to-day"
 Major General Egerton's force is camping tonight two miles beyond Jid- balli.
 1 A later dispatch from General Eger- ton says that one officer (Captain Lis I ter) is missing. Captain Lister is Lord Ribblesdale's son and heir.
