Yesterdays big storm caused United
States Senator John Kean, Jr.. and the
Republican State leaders an uneomfort-
able hour or TWO. Under the law the
Legislature in joint meeting should have
At that hour there was not quorum of
either House. Messengers went seurry-
ing around to find enough absent Sena-
tors and Assemblymen to wake up the
quorum, so that the law could be com
piled with. The House clock was set
back and it was just noon by the clock
when the joint meeting was held though
by every other clock in the Capital city
the time was an hour or so later.
Senator Kean was late himself in get
ting to Trenton. The train from Phila-
phia on which he was a passenger was
held up close to an hour. Everything
came out all right, however. and after
Kean had been reelected by a vote of 81
70 20 for Col Stevens, the candidate of
the minority, he invited all the legisla-
tors, Democratic as well as Republicans,
to the Trenton House, where the anxiety
of the previous two hours was soon for
gotten.

Hail and discusses with City Collector
Fry and County Clerk elect John Roth
efham the local political situation, 50 far
as it concerns the Republican Party At
these conferences the wires are set in
motion and many moves are made that
are calculated to strengthen the organiza-
ton of which the Secretary of State is
at the head. City Collector Fry, it is
understood, looks after Mayor Fagan's
interests should the occasion arise. Now
that the Colonel and the Mayor have
made up and are apparently as friendly
as ever there isn't the same amount of
friction as when the two were not on
speaking terms. Friends of Mr. Rother-
ham are pleased that he is regarded with
such high favor by the party leader and
he is looked upon as the spokesman for
the younger element that is looming up
so conspicuously.

NO PAY FOR PAY A MUSIC
Chief Of Police Murphy For
bids Contributions to a
Fund to Increase the
Forces Pay by Leg
islation.

Chief Of Police Murphy yesterday IS
sued the foll>wing order, supplemented
by a statement to the effect that any
member of the department found guilty
.of having contributed to a fund to secure
legislation increasing pay would be sum
narily dismissed from the depart
ment:-
Headquarters Police Dept,
''Jersey City, January 27, 1905.
"Order No. B.
'.The Chief of Police is in possession
of information that the men of this de-
partment are being asked to contribute
sum Of money for the purpose Of pro-
curing legislation to increase their pay.
'sThere can be no proper excuse why
any member of the Jersey City police
force should ask the Legislature Of our
State to increase their pay until they
have complied with the method laid
down in Rule No. IS of the Manual,
which gives to every officer and man of
the force the right to apply, through
their superior officers, to the Board Of
Police Commissioners for such purpose.
This method, and it is the only way
under the rule has heretofore always
been followed when an increase Of pay
was asked for and it has generally been
successful.
"A Jersey City policeman should be
wise enough not to be gulied out Of his
hard-earned money by set Of grafters.
This order when read at the differ
ent roll-ealls will be posted in the re-
serve room.
by order of
BENJAMIN MURPHY,

THE FIFTH MAINE BATTERY.

THE FIFTH MAINE BATTERY.
The annual meeting of the Fifth
Maine Battery Association was held in
Augusta, Aug. 23d, and the survivors
who were present, together with their
ladies and a few invited guests, enjoyed
a dinner at the Cony house as the guests
of Maj. G. 7. Stevens, the president of
the association and the old commander
of the battery. The Fifth Maine bat
terry was one of Names most famous
fighting organizations, and for three
years and a half it was at the front
and played prominent part in all the
battles and engagements in which the
Army of the Potomac participated. 1t
was recruited at large, its members
coming mainly from Somerset, Kenne-
bee and Cumberland counties, with
few from Coos county, n. H. When
the battery was organized, late in 1861,
1T consisted of 1856 men, with 1877 horses
and six 12-pounders. Later additions to
replace those lost by wounds and disease
made the total number of men who
served in the battery, 200 or more. OF
these between 40 and SO are now known
to be living, about 20 of them being in
this State. The reunion was held in
Grand Army Hall, with sessions both
forenoon and afternoon. The total
number present was 30, and the guests
included Mayor Hichborn, ex-Mayor
Titcomb, Lewis Selling, DR.. McDa-
vid, F. W. Plaisted, ex-Sheriff George
R. Stevens of Belgrade and Others.
After dinner there was an address of
welcome to the association by Mayor
Hichborn, which was responded to by
Major Stevens. There were also elo-
quent speeches by Mr.. Titcomb and
Col. Plaisted, and bright original
poem by DR.. McDavid. At the af-
ternoon session of the association
Henry A. Cummings of Augusta was
elected president for the coming
year, William G.. Towne Of Water
VILE vice president, and George A.
Bowie of Gardiner, secretary. 1t was
voted to hold next years reunion at
