NEW UTILITIES Law

tFrom the Regular Correspondent % The TrYhur.
Trenton. n j.. Jan o With the infros
duction OF the Pierce public utilities corr
mission bill in the House to-morrovv niz,.
the fight for the carrying out OF the one ~
fulfilled plank in the Republican pIatforr~~
OF 1907 will have begun. That the eop.s,,
for the adoption Of this legislation will n.
keen has already been foreshsdowed bu.
with a new Governor to he elected next rsu
the opposition. which has 40 succeSsfull,
prevented the passage OF any such bin 20,
the last two years shows signs OF weaksn-
Ing Not alone is the election Of a Governo-
at stake. but the election of a United states
Senator and state Controller as well.
That the demand for the enactment 90
such a law has been felt by many OF ,ha
legislators was shown by the positive state
ments of a number of AssembIymen ana
Senators last week. all rockribbed regu.
lars When ouizzed on public utilities leyis.
lation they unhesitatingly said that they
would take part in a caucus where a sp.-
ciic utility bill would be brought up bue
under no circumstances would they go int,
a caucus when the question involved wa.
whether or not any utilities bill should %
passed
The Governor. Of course. will be in ths
thick OF the battle for a utilities comuis-
sion, and will be found fighting even hard
er than ever for it's adoption II was only
after the hardest kind Of a fight that ths
Governor has compelled the bosses 70 live
up TO the rest OF the pledges that were
made to the people two years ago. and, un-
less we'll informed persons are astray. THIS.
the last year Of his term. will see the en-
actment OF public utilities law.
The Governor has large number Of an
pointments to make. and il Is probabl,
that many of them will be sent to the Sen
ate tomorrow night-at least the judicial
ones and. of course. the ad interim ap-
pointments made by him after the LAST
legislative adjournment Among these ara
twenty-one members of county tax boards
and the pilOtage commissioners Thera
has been much guessing as TO what will bs
the fate OF David Baird, but the Governor
has kept his own counsel He may,
though, take some action on IL tomorrow
1t is not probable that the income tar
amendment will be sent to the Legislature
until a week from tomorrow night. A
from the Governor will accom-
pany IL. but he has given no inkIing os
what he will say

PRINT CLOTH MARKET REVIEW.
Downward Tendency of Cotton Kept
Some Buyers from Purchasing.
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune.

tBy Telegraph to The Tribune
Fall River. Mass, Jan. 23.-There was
quiet trading in the print cloth market last
week, and the total sales are estimated be-
tween sixty thousand and eighty thousand
pieces. The continued downward tendency
of cotton kept buyers out of the market to
a great extent, and the amount of trading
was limited and was confined to piecing out
needs.
Some buyers have asked for concessions
contending that inasmuch as cotton has
dropped appreciably lower prices should be
named on goods but the manufacturers
declare that for several months past cotton
has ruled unusually high, and at a time
when mills ordinarily purchased their sup
ply abnormal prices were asked Conse-
quently the customary supplies were not
purchased, and this had the effect of COM
pelling mills to purchase high price cotton
when they were in need. In many cases
the mills have not their necessary consign-
ment of cotton, and it may happen that
cotton will have to be bought at a high
figure. which will prevent cloth values
from going lower. On certain lots of spot
goods concessions have been made, but on
staple goods full prices are being demanded
The weekly output of the medium grades
mills in this city amounts to about 26O. 900
pieces, so it be seen that with the
sales for last week amounting to only 200
pieces, there is surplus of goods on hand
in this market, although Just as soon as
brisk trading sets in this extra amount of
goods will be sold The bulk of last weeks
trading consisted of twills, sateens narrow
goods and a few wide goods. The cloth
quotations: 2S-inch. 64x64s, AZ cents a
yard; 2S-inch, 64x6Os, cents; 27-inch, 64x
Co.'S 37s cents; 27-inch 56x56s. S1a cents

DUFFY IN POLICE COURT.
Youth Gaynor Championed Held on
Charge Of Disorderly Conduct.

George B. Duffy. who once had Mayor
Gaynor for his champion. was arraigned be-
fore Magistrate John Manner in the Myrtle
avenue police court. Brooklyn, yesterday
and held in 500 bail for hearing next
Tuesday on charge of disorderly conduct
in a saloon last Saturday night.
Duffy was bailed out by his father after
his arrest on Saturday night, when he was
taken to the Classon avenue police station.
1t the second time that he had been
arrested since General Bingham lost the
Police Commissionership through him.
After the first arrest the police sent Duffy
away without haling him 10 court. This
late New Years Eve. 1t was charged
that he slapped woman as she left her
cab to enter a restaurant on Flatbush ave-
nue, near Fulton street.

EXPECT LIGHT FINE.
Liners Yiat to San Francisco
1roifed zcith Interest.

Tb. nroposal of the Hamburg American
line to send the steamship Cleveland INTO
San Francisco with a large passenger COM
pIernent of tourists taken on at TINS port
and nav a fine OF 1,Oo for so doing has
caused unusual interest in steamship circles
I'm this city II is generally believed among
steamship men that while the government
is living tIp to the letter OF the law In con-
tending that the Cleveland. which Is ON
world cruise is violating the coastwise
steamship law the full fine of 500 for each
of the $50 passengers on board the Cleve-
land will not be imposed upon the line.
The tour of the Cleveland. which Is under
the direction of Frank p. Clark, was origt-
nally planned for the White Star liner Ara
bic. which is now on cruise to the Ie-
want. The proposal TO stop at San Fran
cisco was In the original itinerary. and the
possibility of being fined for violation of
the coastwise steamship act. 1t is said, was
not anticipated. The trip of the Cleveland
is the first round the world cruise ever
made on one steamship. and the action OF
the government toward the Hamburg
American Line will be watched with inter-
est by steamship officials.
An instance Of a steamship violating the
coastwise law came up several years ago,
when a Japanese liner took a passenger
from Hawaii TO San Francisco The com
pany was fined 500 but the fine was re-
mitted later.
II was said yesterday by a steamship
man that the government seldom imposed
a fine in full on foreign steamships. IL was
customary, he said. to fix a nominal fine
and settle the matter amicably In the
courts. 1t is said that the government In
imposing fine of 1000 upon the line for
the entrance of the Cleveland into San
Francisco has modified the full amount of
500 for each passenger. and that If the
company loses it's suit in contesting the
fine the amount of s1.0oO Is all that will
