The Republicans won both houses
of the New Jersey Legislature, the
Assembly standing "A Republicans to
Is Democrats, loss of one over last
year, while the Senate showed gain
of two Republicans, now standing !:
Republicans, 15; Democrats, 6.
Little interest was shown by the
voters in the election, as outside of
the sixty Assemblymen, only eight
Senators were chosen. Six of the lat
ter, who were elected for full terms,
will have vote for a successor to
United States Senator John Kean in
1911. The Legislature chosen will, in
joint session, select State Treasurer
to succeed Daniel S. Voorhees,, Re
publican.
Essex county was carried by the
Republican Assembly candidate by a
plurality estimated to be between
1000 and 5000. The fight for Surro-
gate between. George Russell (Rep.)
and Issac Shoenthal (Dem.) is very
close, with the chances favoring the
Democrats.

Want Lamps in Township.

Residents and taxpayers in Msrris
township have appealed to the Morris
township committee, asking that body
to enforce the provisions of the fran.
chise granted the Morris County Trac-
tion Co. and compel that corporation
to install five electric street lamps as
specified in the ordinance. These
lamps are to be placed on Speedwell
avenue between Five Corners and
Brant's road. Counsel John M. Mills,
OF the township committee, went to
the trolley company about the matter
and was told that lack of funds hinJ
dered them from installing the lights
and!a plea fol- more time was made.
The lights should have been put In
when the company started to run its
car several weeks ago.
Morris township is now paying for
two lamps in the section which the
trolley must light, one at Five Corners
and one at the corner Of Speedwell av-
enue and Brant's road. When the trac-
ti0n company puts in it's lights the
price OF these will be saved to the

WATER FIGHT UP.
Injunction Against the Hudson Coul-
pany is Granted.

Injunction Against the Hudson Com-
pany is Granted.
Vice Chancellor Walker granted an
order Monday restraining the Hudson
Water company from continuing the
work OF laying pipes under the Kill
Won Kull between Bayonne and Staten
Island. The application was made on
behalf of the state by Attorney Gem
eral Wilson upon the ground that
there was no legal warrant under
which the company could contrAct a
pipe line beyond the exterior line OF
solid filling specified in the riparian
grant to the Guffey Petroleum COM
pany. A.ss sssse - e
The purpose Of the s1ft IS to prevent
the water company from carrying out
its plan to supply Staten Island with
water until the regular session Of the
legislature, when a bill will be intro
duced making the proposed diversion
of water illegal.
Unless the proceedings in the court
fail there will be no special session Of
the legislature, which was at first con-
templated by Governor Fort. The
temporary restraint will remain in
force until the 9th inst, when the
Hudson Water company will be given
day in court.

HOWARD TWICE REGISTERED.

County Election Board Asked TO Take
His lame from second Ward List.
Asserting that Police Justice Pat
rick J.. Howard was not legally quali-
fed as voter and has no residence in
the second ward Charles Stilwell and
former Mayor Charlton A. Reed APP
peared before the Morris County Board
of Elections in behalf of Hugh J.. Fitz-
patrick on Saturday afternoon and
asked to have Howard s name stricken
from the registry of the first district
of the second ward. They had no
proof to offer that he was not a legal
voter in that ward and merely showed
by the polling lists that he was regis
tered in both the second and fourth
wards. They asked Mr.. Howard to
submit to being questioned by his
counsel John e. Fennell and David f.
Barkman would not permit 1t. The
election board dismissed the applica-
tion.
The action grew out of the certiorari
proceedings instituted by Stilwel
against Howard acting as a justice Of
the peace. Stilwell asserts that How
ards residence is in the fourth ward
where he lives with his family and as
he was elected as a justice when he
resided in the second ward he ceased
to be legally qualified as a justice
when he moved out of the second
ward. Howard asserts his domicile is
still in the ward, that he does busi-
ness there, spends most of his time
there and has a room In a hotel in the
ward
The action of Saturday was charact-
erized by Howard's counsel as being a
fishing expedition to get evidence to
help the certiorari proceedings.
The election board ruled that How
ard must ask to have his name taken
from the fourth ward list if he does
not wish to be registered from that
ward and that it is up to the chal-
lengers in the two election districts to
see that he does not vote twice. When
asked by John w Fancher of the
board how it was he was registered in
two districts Howard said that the
second ward election board had called
upon him and he had told them to
register him hut so far as he knew he
nor none of his family bad told the
fourth ward board to register him.
