passing away of this eminent man,
who rendered his new home valuable

MYSTERY
MARTIN TROLLEY BILL

TRENTON, May 1S:-There is
still a bit of mystery as to the man
ner in which Assemblyman Martin S
trolley bill, No. 339, found its way to
the state library, which is the official
morgue for all bills introduced but
not passed by the legislature as well
as those vetoed by the governor.
Having passed both branches of
the legislature, Mr.. Martins bill
should have been in the hands of the
clerk of the house, in which it orig
mated, at the close of the session.
This would have put it up to Captain
James Parker to explain why 1T went
to the library instead of to the gov
ernor.
The records show that the meas
ure, after being signed by President
Bradley of the senate was filed IN
the morgue by Secretary Tyler, OF the
senate, to whom a receipt was given
by State Librarian Buchanan. When
the bill was found yesterday it was
among a batch of perhaps fifty others
received from Mr.. Tyler.
Mr.. Buchanan is not.inclined to de-
liver the bill directly to the COVER
nor, there being no authority tol
such a course and nc provision, ap-
parently, by which he could keep his
own records straight. Instead, nc
will return the measure through the
regular channel, either securing a re
turn of his receipt from Mr.. Tyler OF
exacting another receipt for the bill
1t will then be up to the senate sec
rotary to see that the GOVERNOR gets
the bill.

LIKE PLANS
FOR Y. M. C. a. BUILDING

NEW BRUNSWICK, May 1S;-For
three hours Wednesday night the
Board of Y. NJ. c. A. directors thor
oughly examined the plans for the
new hGiiding, as drawn up by the
building committee, consisting of
George Hill and Asher Atkinson.
Although no final action was taken
on the matter last night. the plans
in all probability will be adopted at
the special meeting to be held on next
Wednesday night. The directors TX
pressed themselves as being well
pleased with the plans in every par
ticular. They consider the plans
well adapted for an up-to-date insti'
tuition.
The board also extended a vote OF
thanks to the Membership committee
for the work they have done so far.
The membership committee
through its chairman, Freeman

pledges had been received up to las
night. This is the result of two days
work. Out of this number there are

QUIET AT COEYMANS
Soldiers Made House to House
Search for Men and Arms.

COEYMANS, N. ", May 1S.-Indica-
tons point to a settlement, probably
today, of the ~brickmakers' strike and
the return to Albany of the four COM
panies of the Tenth regiment of the
national guard called here by Sheriff
Pitts after the riotous battle at the
brickyards of Sutton & Suderley.
The employers made .o%vertures to the
strikers, offering to concede all the
demands of the men except recogni-
ton of the union. This proposition
was taken under consideration by the
men, and the general impression is
that the proposition of the employers
will be accepted.
Five Italians and one negro were
placed under arrest and lodged in the
Albany Jail charged with riot. One of
the Italians will be held on the more
serious charge of shooting Engineer
Fred Southland, the nan most serious
ly hurt of the three wounded in the
battle.
These arrests followed Il house to
house search in the Italian COLONY by
the deputy SnerlItS M guard or ue
tails of troops with loaded rifles. 1t
was a businesslike proceeding and re-
suited not only in the arrest of all but
two of the alleged leaders in the arm
ed attack OH the brickyard, but also
in the confiscation of a collection of
rifles, shotguns, pistols and ammuni-
ton. In one house 600 rounds of shot.
gun and pistol cartridges were seized.
Guards are still posted about the vii
lage.
An interesting incident of the raid
was the fact that the first capture was
made in the quaint stone house bull
nearly 125 years ago by Peter Coey'
mans. the original settler, after whom.
this old town was named.
