RAISE STEAMER
AND Get CARGO
"Cimbria" of Merchants Com
pany Now on Dry Dock

The merchant steam Cimbria, of
the Marine Merchants Terminal
Company. which went to the bottom
of the Staten Island Sound off Bay
me Monday night of last week
when it was struck IN the stem by
the Safety, a merchant steamer of
the N. Y. and N. j. Steamboat Com
pany, has been raised by the Chap
man Wrecking Company, and is now
on dry docks in New York.
Most of the cargo of the unlucky
vessel was saved by divers, who de-
scended in the water before the craft
was raised. 1t is said all the copper
bars, approximating about ~ffty-seven
tons, which were being shipped from
this place to New York and belonged
to the Underground Cable Works.
were rescued and returned to the
plant in fair condition.
The 100 rolls of paper from the
Barber Asphalt and Paving Company
all floated away, save a few rolls.
The tobacco stems from the Perth
Amboly Cigar company were greatly
damaged by the long soaking, and
are now awaiting disposition at the
freight house Of the Terminal com
pany's dock in Front street.
The Morgan Is plying the waters
between here and New York until
the Cimbria can be overhauled,
which will probably be within two
weeks.

EXCISE BOARD
TO MEET AGAIN
No Action Last Night Con-
fsrences Are Held.

No business was transacted at an
adjourned meeting of the Board of
Excise Commissioners last night and
o'clock next Monday night. The
board was to have acted upon four
applications for new licenses and
some for transfers and renewals,
which were laid V e at the previous
meeting. President John H. Fritzing-
er and Commissioners Richard Hen.
derson, Edward Tymrakiewicz and
James F. Burns were present. They
held a number OF secret conferences.
The meeting was called to order
shortly before 9 o'clock and adjourn
ed a minute or two later.
After adjournment had been taken
the members talked freely about
criticism offered against transferring
the saloon license of Theodore Len
chiski from SIG Charles street to 1873
Grant street. The commissioners
said they could not see why the
Chesebrough Manufacturing Com
pany should complain about the sa-
loon when it was fully five and a half
blocks from the entrance to it's works.
they maintained the territory about
Grant street had developed and the
number of inhabitants warranted
a drinking place there. The commits
sioners said the saloon was about
two and a half blocks from the Marcy
Foundry Works, and they failed to
see how it could affect either the
Chesebrough, Marcy or Raritan cop
per plants.

SHOW. AT PROCTOR'S

A musical comedy, which Is grote-
sque. but still absorbingly attractive
is being presented at Proctor's the
remainder OF the week by the "Bell
Girls" In a sketch entitled: Two
Rings" There are six young, viva
cious, pretty, tripping dancing, kid
ding, charming maidens, who earn
their livelihood by operating the tele-
phone system. They so confuse
their manager, who unluckily hap
pens to be a man that he is nearly
driven distracted, and is afraid to
give orders; instead, receives them
from his pretty help. The act has a
sensational finale, when the six skip
pingsmaidens dance out on the stage
and sing a song: Row, Row, Row"
They are voiciferously applauded in
this act, which holds the attention
of all with the charming electrical
effects, with which 1t Is accompanied.
Granville and Mack in an unique
Italian m~onologue, engender almost
un~checkable laughter. The man is
an organ grinder and his wife ac-
companies him as often seen in large
cities, buts the pathos of the: real
comedy.
The wonderful child musician
plays a violin in a manner that many
an older artist would crave to be
able to perform.
Among the pictures put on is the
mills of the Gods" which is a
charming, gripping scene Of allie
CORY.

ARE HOPEFUL
Say Progressives Will Re-
turn to Fold Next Fall.

That the Progressive party is as
a wandering sheep that will soon re-
turn to the fold of the Grand Old
Party was the concensus of opinion
expressed by the members of the
Young Mems Republican Club in SEES
sion for the first time In their new
club rooms, Nos. IA and Is Of the
Madison building, last night. Presi-
dent Harry R. Wilson's suggestion
that the club branch out to work in
the county, was also popularity ap-
proved In short speeches made by
nearly every n present.
Judge Harold E. Pickersgill in a
stirring speech told the club mem
bers that he believed that when the
next general election rolls around,
there will be but two large parties in
the field as before, and that n
Party He urged the earnest CO.
operation of all members of the or
ganization with the Republican Off
GERS of the city, in assisting them
by their advice, and friendly and
honest criticism. He believed that
most of those who had separated
from the Republican party, would, in
the course of time, see the error
of their ways and come back to the
old party which embodies the truest
and soundest principles of govern
ment.
Mayor Garretson expressed him
self thoroughly in sympathy with the
establishment of permanent quarters
and congratulated those who had
been most instrumental in bringing
members could greatly aid the city
office holders by sincere and lngen-
ious criticism.
Alderman-elect Charles X. Hilker,
OF the Third ward, and William C..
Wilson,, of the First ward, expressed
themselves willing to listen to the
voice of the people and do all In their
power to enhance the standard OF
the Republican party in this city.
Among those who responded to in
vitations to speak were: Hon. John
F. Ten Brock, Chairman John
Pfeiffer of the County Committee;
Attorney Leo Goldberger, Albert
Leon and John Hanson.
The new quarters Of the club will
be open every night to members and
their friends, except the first Thurs
day In every month, when a business
session will be held. Literature will
be found on the tables, also games
with which to pass away a leisure
hour, and the rooms made as cozy
member will o o be furnished with
a key to the rooms.
AT the suggestion of Morgan F.
Larson, the general meeting of
the club adjourned, a private ses
sion" to discuss finances, ETC., was
held. A committee was also appoint
ed to draw up another set of bylaws,
which will be more in keeping with
the temper of the times, and more in
harmony with work to be done in the
county. Those named were: Mayor
Garretson, Albert Leon, John Pfeif-
fer. Hon, John F. Ten Brock and

MElLEN LOVES
NEW ENGLAND
President of New Haven R.
R. Makes Statement.
Specfdl Du United Press W{re.

opNSfpt y ~ nav 1850
Boston, Dec. Rehabilitation
was the dominant means of a lengthy
statement issued today by President
Charles Mellen, of the New Haven
railroad, explaining the New Haven
methods which have been much crit
icised of late. He declared hat he
loved New England, as the result
of ~thirty-four years Of labor there;
that his every move had been to pro-
tect its interests and that IL 1t had
not been for the consolidation plans
undertaken by him the entire trade
of that section would have long ago
passed to other localities. Railroad
rates favor every other locality, he
claims, and only by a unified conser-
vative and strengthened Transports
ton system can the ports Of this sec
ton enjoy prosperity.
He denied fatty that he had in
fluenced the Grand Trunk to quit
extending it's line into New England
and declared that the entire cam
paign against his management of the
New Haven Is due to his refusal to
pay an abnormal price for a block
of privately held Boston and Maine
stock. Constant criticism, he ad-
mits has had a demoralizing effect
upon employees and a consequent i'm
pairment of transportation. He de-
clared there has been an organized
attempt to discredit the road by loos-
ening spikes, then reporting them.
He bitterly assaulted Louis Bran
deis for maintaining an organiza-
ton that his been preparing for
many weeks to inflame the public by
attacks of the most personal, vicious
and unrighteous character, upon me
personally and my management of
the New England lines"
