CITY HALL ELEVATORS
BADLY IN NEED OF REPAIR

Having found in a recent inspec-
ton that the five elevators at the
City Hall are in bad shape the pub

mon Council last night decided to
overhaul them. The Otis Elevator
Company were notified to this effect
Bids for installing lighting fixtures

committee decided 20 recommend to
the council that the contract be
awarded to the Jaehnig Gas Fixture
Company. of 221-223 Thirteenth ave-
nue., whose bid of $1,35750 was the
lowest. The Krauss Chandelier Works,

also were received from the f. Stors-
berg Company, of 20 Atlantic street;
the Browe Company, of s Franklin

TEACHERS AROUSED
BY DRESS ATTACK
Declare Their Costumes Are
Not "Scandalous" will
Welcome investigation

Teachers in the Irvington public
schools are indignant today over the
statement that their manner of dress
is "scandalous." They assert that
they viii welcome an investigation by
Miss Bernettie P. Colt. chairman of
the teachers committee. in their mode
of wearing apparel. The aspersions
cast upon the teachers way of dress
ing occurred last night at a meeting
of the board of education.
The remarks concerning the wom-
ems dress were made during a dis
cussion on the proposed purchase of
teachers desks for two new schools.
1t was stated that the majority of
the teachers preferred the desks
with closed backs. Then DIR. Albion
c. Christian, a member of the board,
asserted that if the teachers did not
dress in the fashion they do now.
they would not care If the desks we're
closed or not. He also termed their
mode of dress as "scandalous"
Dr. Christian suggested that II
would be a good plan for Miss Colt
to make an investigation of the man
ner in which the teachers dress.
Joseph X. Clickinger was awarded
the contract for sixteen desks in the
new school. His bid was $169S for
each desk. The contract for 800 pupils
desks was secured by the New Jersey
School Church Furniture Company
of Trenton, while the American Seat
ing Company was awarded the con-
tract for portable chairs to be used
in the assembly room.
The teachers desks ordered for the
new school are to be of the open back

HUDSON FREEHOLDERS CUT
BUDGET ABOUT 100000
Especial to the Newark start

JERSEY CITY. N. j., July 25.-
After working for about two weeks
on the Hudson County budget for the
coming fiscal year the Board of Free
holders have succeeded in saving
$191, 1893 over that of the present year.
This is the work of the new board of
nine freeholders The budget this
year amounted to 1896, 1854. That
of next year will be s2.674,552.71.
In the past 1t has been the custom
to evade and put off obligations.
There is nothing like this In the new
budget which was agreed upon by
the finance committee of the free
holders today. The new budget con-
tains $4,000 for the new widows pen
sion act and $4,000 for the INDECENT
poor in county hospitals.

HOW TOBACCO-CHEW|NG 4DAVY" LEWIS
SAVED PARCEL POST FROM ENEMIES

takes away from Congress all au-
thority over postal rates and regula-
lions and gives full legislative au-
thority to the postmaster-genera
subject only to the approval of the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Seemingly, Bourne and the other
members of the committee who didn't
want q parcel post, failed to read the
Lewis paragraph as carefully as they
should. Anyway, they let it go
through, and it became part of the
parcel post law. Now the innocent
paragraph threatens to destroy the
express companies and confuse the
enemies of parcel post.
Expected System Would Not Pay.
When Burleson ordered. a few
weeks ago, that the use of special
stamps on parcel post matter should
be discontinued, the ants began to
howl. The Senate, anxious not to
have a parcel post. had fixed up in
the law a parcel post commission.
Its members included such radical
postal reformers as John j. Gardner
and former Senator Frank o. Briggs,
of New Jersey, and the program was
for this commission to study the
workings of the new system and re-
port recommendations for changes to
Congress. The special stamps were
the method provided for enabling the
commission to find out whether par
eel post paid its way or not Since
the law did not provide sufficient
Co.
the new system was put into use
without preparation, it was fully ex-
peeted that it would not pay, and
predicted that the commission would
find out and report the whole scheme
to be a failure. Even Postmaster
General Frank Hitchcock publicly
warned the country of the extent of
this conspiracy, in his statement at
the outset of the service, to the ef-
feet that because of the insufficiency
of the appropriation the postoffices
might be swamped and it might be-
come necessary to suspend the serv-
ice.
When Burleson discontinued the use
of the special stamps the commits
sion practically went out of business.
Without special stamps there was no
way of finding out how much parcel
post business was being done and no
basis on which it might be declared a
failure. In the Senate the oppon-
ents of parcel post and the railroad
and express senators and reaction
aries generally, have been getting
ready to protest about this phase of
the matter.
The last order of the new postmas-
ter-general. reducing the rates and
increasing the weight limit within a
hundred mile radius, however, has
started a howl that is fairly an
agonized scream, from the railroads
and express interests. This howl has
been voiced in the Senate by Bryan,
of Florida. a young man supposed by
his constituents to be a Progressive.
but whose close family and financial
ties to the Atlantic Coast Line rail-
way make him reactionary when
railroad and express interests are at
stake.
Like others, Bryan admits he didn't
know the Lewis amendment was
loaded. Now it's gone off and shot
him, and he and the other railroad
senators are crying for help to save

first call for volunteers was issued In
1861 he enlisted as sergeant in
Beams Battery afterwards known
as Clark's Battery, of this city, and,
serving continuously throughout the
war, was mustered out with the rank
of brevet-major. During the recent
reunion at Gettysburg, which Colonel
Clark was prevented from attending
by his Illness, the surviving mem
bers of this battery WHO were there
wrote him a letter in which, after
expressing their devotion to him and
their sorrow at his absence, they ex-
tended him the warm regards apd
praises of their old commander, Cen
eral Sickles, whom they quoted as
having said: Captain Clark and his
boys did grand work on the field. ;"
Nor did Colonel Clark's military
career end with the war, for he was
long a member of the State militia,
in which he held the position of
chief of artillery on the division

In civil life as we'll as in military
Colonel Clark was prominent and ac-

taxes. In $780, he went to live at the
National Military Home. in Mont
gomery County, Ohio, and was soon
after appointed governor of that in
stitution, in which position he re-
manned until 1872 when he retired

Colonel Clark is survived by one
sister, Mrs. Abbey c. Hammond, of
Fayetteville, N. Y, and a number of
nieces and nephews, one of whom,

TRYING TO SOLVE
ORANGE CAR SNARL
Police Chief, Replying to
Critics, Suggests Remedy
for Traffic Obstruction.

Replying to criticisms of the block
ing of Cone street, Orange, by use
of the single track there as a termi-
nal for the Montclair Valley road troll
line. at the Board of Trade meeting
Wednesday night, Police Chief John
Drabell today declared that the only
solution of the problem lies in an
order 10 compel the trolley officials
to send the Montelair cars-through
to the Orange Valley terminus of
the crosstown road
The present makeshift is the best
arrangement that can be made, IL
Cone street is to continue as the
Orange destination of the Montclair
cars, according to Chief Drabell. He
outlined the history of the movement
to have the cars stopped at various
points.
Use of the switch at Day street,
near Main street. brought complaints
from patrons of the road who wanted
to be taken as far as the Lacka-
wanna Railroad depot in Cone street
Rigs Entering Depot Plaza Blocked.
Stopping the cars at Railroad place
resulted in blocking rigs entering
and leaving the depot plaza and Gen
eral Manager Edwin w. Hine OPP
posed the plan to send the cars over
the Lackawanna tracks and have
them change their direction on the
switch at Hurlbut street, as it added
to the dangers already existing by
having moro car traffic on n railroad
crossing at grade and causing both
the crosstown and Montclair line
cars additional delays when the rail-
road gates are lowered for trains
After a meeting of the Common
Council railroad committee with Gen
eral Hine and myself at which the
entire question was gone over we
agreed that the present scheme of
having the cars stop in Cone street.
between Main street and Railroad
place, the least of the many evils
forced by the stopping of the Mont
clair cars In Cone street" said Chief
Drabell. General Hine immediate
ly gave orders to the car crews to
stop in the street no longer than was
required to turn the trolley pole for
a change in direction and to fix the
tenders.
Order Was Not Always Obeyed.
There was no general obedience to
this rule for time, however, and
the employees of the company. not
the Public Service officials, were re-
sponsible for the blocking of . the
roadway | had this habit of stop
ping the cars for one, two and three
minutes stopped by calling attention
of a superintendent to General Hines
orders that any waits for starting
time must be satisfied on the Day
street switch. There is now no de-
lay, longer than for the plans for a
cars return trip, and vehicles may
pass, one at time, on either side
of the stationary car.
There Is, of course but one RENE
dy for the present congestion, that Is
to send the Montclair cars to Orange
Valley. I do not think there is any
Council ordinance allowing cars the
right to run only between the East
Orange line and the Cone street de-
pot. / believe the cars should be
run through to the end of the line In
the valley, as l think the ordinances
would require that the cars go that
distance. Councilman Condron at a
meeting of the railroad committee
made that suggestion"

WOMAN is INJURED in
CRASH OF AUTOMOBILES
tsnec,al 10 the Newark star.I

RED BANK, N. j., July 25.-While
on her way to q dinner party last
night, Miss Beatrice Beck, daughter
of James M. Beck, a lawyer of New
York, who is spending the summer at
Low Moor. was bruised and shaken
up when her limousine was struck
by another automobile on the bend
in the Rumson road opposite Uzal FL.
MoCarter's residence. In the other
car was Miss Margaret Valentine. of
New York, accompanied by a man
who refused to give his name.
According to Frank Lewis, chauf-
feur of the Beck car, he saw the
other machine coming at fast rate
and in order to avoid a collision ran
his car in the ditch. The other car
hit the limousine and wrecked 1t.
Miss Beck was the only one injured
and she was taken home in a dazed
condition.

their interests. They are urging that
the new rule will not only hurt the
express companies, but will cut down
the profits of the railroads, although
they haven't made this last point ex-
actly clear, since the government
pays more for hauling the malls than
the railroads get for hauling express
matter.
There will be merry war over the
business when the postal bill gets be-
fore Congress next winter, but the
demand of the country for ext
of parcel post facilities, cheapening
OF rates and betterment Nof service
even faster than the present post
master-general is disposed to grant
them, is likely to become so strenu-
Gus that instead of being able to do
anything about the small reform just
ordered, the express and railroad in
terests are likely to be kept very
busy trying to head off a real parcel
post.
1t is more than likely that the next
Congress will order the postmaster
general to put the express companies
out of business entirely, and to give
the country a parcel post system that
will benefit the whole country.

POLICE DOUBT
SAMARITAN TALE
Prisoner Claims He Was TAX
ing Unconscious Man Home
When Arrested.

Andrew Coniak says he was a good
samaritan but the police declare that
he had beaten and was about to rob
the man he said he was befriending.
| Because the police did not see
Coniak's charitable deed he is held
at the Third Precinct, where a charge
of attrocious assault will be made
against him.
| Three others, besides Coniak are
| also held awaiting the outcome of
injuries received by John Geshash,
of So Adams street, now in the City
Hospital in a delirous condition with
a possible fracture of the skull. Detec-
tive Brex is making an investigation
into the conflicting stories told by
the men about the manner in which
Geshash received his injuries.
Shortly after midnight this morning
Sergeant Gray, Patrolmen Scully,
Nichols and Ziegler, came upon a
man dragging another on the pave
ment in Passaic avenue at Madison
place. The man who was doing the
dragging dropped the body as some
one yelled Police and started to
run away. One of the officers gave
chase while the others went in pur-
suit of three more men seen running
in another direction.
Man Was Unconscious.
The ambulance was summoned and
the man on the sidewalk. uncon-
scious, was taken to the City Hos
pital. The four who were captured
by the policemen were locked up at
the Third precinct station on sus-
picion.
1t was reported at the hospital to-
day that the injured man was not
in serious condition, having Only a
slight scalp wound, but at the same
time was delirious and had to be
kept in a straitjacket This was the
result of drink, the doctors said.
| IL is the belief of the police, how
ever, that Geshash may have frac-
tured skull. and on the strength of
that Judge Hahn held the four pris-
oners for the result of Brex's search.
After questioning Coniak, who Is %
and lives at 81 Passaic avenue, and
Brownie Salensl<i. 20, of 20 Passaic
avenue, two of the quartet, Brex
learned that the five men with an

police arrested me. See my shirt.
