motion and pleaded FOR the passage OF
the Judiciary committees bill, which,
he said, was counterpart of the ia
nous Hughes bill, "a wise and con-
sentative measure"
Mr.. Jess put in two amendments to
the Young substitute, limiting the ex-
penditures of the proposed commission
to 100000 and cutting cut the rate fix
ing clause. In supporting the amend
ment he declared that the public had
not demanded the enactment of a
drastic public utilities bill. The Young
substitute, he claims. would meet the
demand of the people and enable the
legislators to keep the pledges made
IN the party platforms last fall.
The first Jess amendment, cutting
down the appropriation to 100000, was
defeated, as was also the second. cut
ting ont the ratemaking clause. The
motion to substitute the Young bill for
that of the judiciary committee was
defeated by a vote of II to 80. The
dwell amendment providing for an
elective commission and the amend
ment by Mr.. Daab providing for the
elimination of dangerous grade cross
ings al the expense of the railroads
were both defeated.
The Pierce amendment permitting
the appeal to the court was adopted,
and the bin was finally passed by a
vote OF 80 to 0, MIR. Stille being the
only absentee.
Although some anticipated that VIII
liam Jennings Bryan would address
joint session of the legislature today,
he sent telegram to Mr.. Jess yester

impossible for him to be present and

Ain UnSeemly Church Row.

Last December First NJ. Z Church OF
Trenton, being without pastor, called
Rev. Charles o. Jones, D D., Of Atlanta,
Georgia, and entered into contract with
him for one year, with the assent of the
Presiding Elder. Rev Jones was not ac-
corded warm reception by his brother
ministers OF the M. E Churches of Trenton,
and the conference at Milville last week
assigned Rev Fry, another Trenton pastor,
to that pulpit.

with criticism of it's Gun Methodistic
character
Several years ago prominent life insur-
ance company took an $50, 900 mortgage on
the property from the trustees of the church.
The ecclesiastical authorities were critical,
but could not stop it. Neither the pastor
nor the presiding elder consented to the
deed, it is said, but it went through never
theless. The insurance company was salts
fed that their consents were Unnecessary.
The trustees, backed by the entire con-
gregation, have served notice on Confer
ence and the Presiding Elder that they are
going to stand by Dr. Jones to the end of
their contract
