DRIVERS FORM UNION
I'm NEW BRUNSWICK.
1t Is Reported that New Union Will
Get a Charter Tonight-Will In
cIude All Transfers.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. G.
1t was reported that a meeting will
be held tonight probably in Union
Hall at which time the drivers and
stablemen of the city will be organ
ICED into a union and will be granted
a charter by the National association.
Men employed in such positions were
asked for information concerning the
movement but most of them profess
ed not to know just what was TO be
done. One driver said that there
was talk of such a union being form
ed some time ago, but he did not
know what steps had been taken in
the matter. Another driver said he
had heard that a meeting is to be
held tonight, but he did not know
what is to be done. All expressed
themselves as in favor of such a IN
ion. 1t is more than probable that
the meeting will be held and that an
application will be made for a char
ter.
Such an organization if formed
will be one of the strongest labor
unions in the city. Its membership
it is understood would embrace all
drivers of tradesmen's delivery wag
ons, truck drivers and stablemen. The
object of the union would not be so
much to regulate wages as to regu-
late hours of work.

MUNICIPAL LIGHT
PLANT FOR CAMDEN?
Council Asks City Engineer to JAS
certain Probable Cost and SOIic-
itor Regarding Legal End.

CAMDEN, Jan. 6:-Acting upon
the suggestion contained in the first
annual message of Mayor Ellis, coun-
ell last night took step toward pro-
viding a municipal lighting plant for
the city at the expiration of the pres
ent contracts.
With a view of ascertaining the
cost of such a plant and the probable
time which would be need to contract
it, council passed resolutions calling
upon the city solicitor for Informal
ton as to necessary legal steps and
upon the city engineer as to the prob
able cost of an efficient plant site and
the length of time necessary to build
and equip.
Mayor Ellis has also in his mess
age referred to the practice of coun-
Gil to hold caucuses before each
meeting. Last night, for the first
time in several months, councilmen
entered council chambers without
first discussing matters of general
public interest behind closed doors.

MRS. DUKE FAILS TO
STOP DIVORCE CASE.
In a Secret Hearing Court ofErrors
Declines to Grant a Stay of
Proceedings.

TRENTON, Jan. 6:-Behind clos
ed doors in the court of errors and
appeals, yesterday, arguments were
heard on the motion of counsel for
Mrs. James B. Duke to stay proceed
ings in the court of chancery pend
ing an appeal from the decision that
the New Jersey courts have no juris-
diction in the Duke divorce proceed
ings. AT the conclusion OF the hear
ing it was announced that the motion
for a stay was refused. The taking
of testimony in the divorce proceed
ings may now be continued in chan
Gerry, and if the errors court finally
decides that the ohancery court erred
in declaring Duke a resident of New
Jersey such testimony will be null
and void.
This is a defeat for Mrs. Duke.
who sought to prevent the taking of
testimony until the question of her

PASSES AS USUAL
IN NEW JERSEY.
Railroads Disregard Former Deci
sion and Provide Free TranspOr-
tatiOn for Legislators.

TRENTON, Jan. G.-Despite an
anti-pass order of railroad compan-
les, state officials and members of
both houses OF New Jerseys legisla-
ture have received from the Pennsyl-
yania, the Reading and the Jersey
Central Railroad Companies free
transportation for a year. as usual.
In most instances the railroads have
increased their privileges.
Members of the legislature seem
inclined TO accept provisions of an
act. passed in 1872, rather than give
heer to a constitutional paragraph
which prohibits them from receiving
any emolument other than their sal
aries Of $500 a year.
The general railroad law of New
Jersey specifically says that the gov

Not only did the Pennsylvania

making them good over the Atlantic
City Railroad and over the Reading

PASSES BOTHER THE
COLBY LEGISLATORS.
Pastboards Have Come to Them
and They Are Undecided Whether
or Not TO Accept.

TRENTON, Jan. G:-Those men,
bers of the legislature who support
the principles of limited franchises
and equal taxation as enunciated by
Standardized Everett Colby in Essex
and Mayor Mary Pagan in Hudson
are reported to be in a state Of mind
over the pass question. Whether
they are going to get passes is not
what is worrying them, for something
on the principle of the rain which
falls upon the just and the unjust
alike, the p%asteboards have come TO
them by mail the same as TO the 9th
er members; but, having received
them, shall they keep them and ride
upon them is the question which is
said to be %agitating them at this time.
There has been much discussion
among them, and their advisers over
the question and opinions among
them differ. Some persons want
those who left the republican assem-
bly, caucus the other week to return
all the passes at once to the source
from whence they came. with a letter
declining them and couched in such
terms as each member shall consider
the circumstances of the case require.
AS it is the intention of these mem
bers, they declare, to attack the rail
roads with bills providing for the tax
alton of their main stems and for
other much-needed reforms it would
be the height of inconsistency, it is
argued, for those members to accept
any favors from the companies.
In reply to these ideas, it was said
that as, with the exception of the
Pennsylvania and part of the Erie,
most of the other roads in the state
were compelled by law to carry free
the members of the legislature, the
law-maker who accepts a pass and
rides upon it over the latter roads
would only be exercising a right to
which he was entitled by the law of
the land, and in doing so would be
no more inconsistent than he would
be in taking from the state treasurer
the $500 salary the constitution
gives him when some one claims he
has not rendered to the state services
worth that amount. Persons holding
that view advocate returning the
Pennsylvania pass and keeping the
others to which the law entities the
legislators.

RAILROAD BLAMED.
Gross Negligence" by Company Led
to Killing Says Jury.

ASBURY PARK, Jan. Gross
negligence by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company and co%ntributory neg
ligence by the authorities of Free
hold were held yesterday by a cor
oner's jury to have been responsible,
N part at least, for the death of John
Brennan of Ocean Grove, who was
killed in a railroad accident Christ
mas night. Among the witnesses
were several of the young men who
were On the stage when it was struck
by a train.
The testimony of all except the
railroad men showed that the boys
had not been drinking; that they
We're not singing or making any
noise; that the horses were trotting
at a moderate gait; that no whistle
was blown or bell rung by the ap-
preaching train, and that the cross
ing was a dangerous one. Aaron
Savage. the engineer, testified that
the bell had been rung when going
through Freehold, and that when he
saw the horse fifty feet ahead of him
he did ell in hiS pUweT--to stop the
locomotive. He said the speed of the
train was ten miles an hour.
The verdict was as follows:
THAT John Brennan came to his
death December 25 by a fracture of
his skull, which he received when
riding in a stage and crossing there
in the tracks of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company at South street,
in Freehold, said stage being struck
by q freight train. We find that said
company did use gross negligence in
not providing during the night time
proper safeguards and signals of
danger, or watchfulness for the pro-
lection of the public. We also find
contributory negligence on the part
of the governing authorities of said
town Of Freehold by not enforcing
the ordinance of this town in regard
to railroad crossings for the protec-
ton of the public"

DID NOT DESERT BOY.
New Story Brought Out About Lad
Found in New Brunswick.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Jan. e.
Investigation by the Rev. Thomas
Brock of st. James Methodist church
of the odd case of Harold Reed, the
little boy from Waterbury, Conn,
whom he found in the streets here
last Saturday, has revealed a pecul-
lar story.
The boy has since been returned to
Waterbury by Mr.. Brock, who learn
started for California, taking the boy
with him. Apparently Mr.. and Mrs.
Reed have parted for a time, at least.
The little boy found here vas the
son of his fathers first wife. Mr..
Brock, when he took the boy back to
Waterbury, had to turn him over to
a children's society, as his stepmoth-
er refused to take him.
Yesterday Mr.. Brock received a
call from the boys aunt, a sister OF
his father. This woman lives in Jer-
sey City, but her name and address
Mr.. Brock declines to make known,
She told the minister, he says, thai
on Friday last her brother, Norman
Reed, accompanied by the boy and
by a man from Waterbury, arrived
at her house in Jersey City. Her
brother told her he was going to Cal
ifornia. He had $4,000 with him,
but he wished, he said, to put the
boy in a home temporarily, at least.
st. Joseph's Home, in Jersey City,
was suggested, and Mr.. Reed sent the
other man to ascertain if the neces-
sary arrangements could be made
there. The man returned in a little
while, according to Mr.. Brooks in
formant, and said the boy could be
boarded at ST. Joseph's Home for So
a week. Mr.. Reed then gave him,
according to the woman, $12 to pay
the boys board for six weeks.
About 8 O'Clock Saturday after
noon the man took the boy away from
this woman's house, and returned to
the house about Z o'clock without the
boy. Mr.. Reed meanwhile left for
California. The boy vas found by
Mr.. Brock in George street, this city,
at $50 on Saturday afternoon. The
child said then that a fat nan had
left him there. There are trains on
the Pennsylvania railroad on which
one could travel from Jersey City to
this city, so to the point where the
boy was found, and then return to
Jersey City and arrive there before
z O'Clock, having left there after 3
The sister told Mr.. Brock that she
( would get into communication with
her brother as quickly as possible.

American Squadron to be Sent to
ASnaniSh Waters 0rder Will
pP!eaSe France.

ELLINGTON, Jan. 6. - The an
ement that an American squad
Ito go to Spanish waters pending
international Moroccan conference
lgeciras eXcites surprise and much
among diplomats at Paris.
Egsbee's squadron will be only six
n les away when the Moroccan confer
q sc meets.
The visit of the squadron will please
F(nnce, as it will put into the shade
thes German emperor's celebrated trip
TO Tangier. The other powers prob
ablyNwill send a single warship each.
The agitation in Europe over the
coming Moroccan conference and the
result it may bring has spread itself to
this country, and American officials
are o deeply interested in the mat
ter, whereas heretofore their interest
has been but little more than casual.
The reason for this increased impor-
lance of the conference in the minds
of government officers here is due to
the recently developed view that the
American delegation to the conference
10 d lnOSl pOtellL luclOE ut ulc gutter
ing, being in Il prospective position to
control the situat.sn.
1t has been thoroughly believed here
that the various European govern
ments who are so deeply Interested in
the conference, notably France and
Germany, have agreed on a programme
which would be adhered to rigidly.
The possibility of a split between these
two governments on some of the ques-
tons involved may throw the United
States into d position where its dele
gates with their votes will have the
power to settle the issue n way or
another.
In this event it is considered thai the
position of the United States may be
come embarrassing. 1t is feared here
that a crisis such as existed between
Germany and France last June, when
the Moroccan situation was most acute,
may again be precipitated by the con
ference which is to be held within a
fortnight at Algeciras.
The main contention of France is
that she should be allowed to police
Morocco. Germany desires interna-
tional policing, and OH this point there
is likely to be Il decided difference.
