un sunday 1 do not think that the Democratic

Bloner Andrews xxho Is a lawyer xxus slaked
about this xistenlay The Iommlmloncr said
I want It under lood that I do not sptnlc for
the Hoard Indlvldunll I tjollexe Iheru U I room
for a wide difference ot opinion an to the Inter
pretation of time laxx Certainly If a club his
no legal right toll liquor nu weeK lal it has
no right tn tell on Sutsdays Although nothing
Is I said In tho law about It I know ot a numlwr
ot good lawyers who bellexo the club have
legal right tn sell liquor at any time
In view of such opinions It seems to me that
the heat t stY to get at tho matter Is to have a
tit case made home club appearing In the case
as the defendant charged with violating the
law I may say that a wellknown club man
hal Intimated to tho Hoard thut such a case
muy be provided In tact I think tho dctulU
have all been Arranged but of that I am nut
In President Uuoso
lulte certain The mutter I 1 Ol

ibo Hoard would like to see a test case
iiade If the court uphold tho club then the
Board in future xvlll make no attempt tn stop

Iqlort
ngainu the club then we shall endeavor to en
urce time laxv I rIgidly Hut tile difficulty In doing
his Is tu got evidence 1 do not believe that any
lol
individual of this Hoard ur time Uotrd us a
whole would sanction for a moment the attempt
lo pend spites Into ix club to get evidence of thu
violation uf the Inn I know that I would not
introduce n Inn into any cub of which I wax
a member It I knew that he xxas to b
tho clubs guest simply t detect violatIons of
the Excise 1t According to tho letter of tine
law It is Illegal for any citizen to scrxo wine vr
other liquor on his dinner table un Sunday but
no ono I hnpu suspects that we are goin let spy

out hether ur not tin I Is I obe luc the Excite law
A club li I little different from mans own borne
and unless some nne w ho has hud I drink In 1
club makesu complaint I dont Just see how the
ollce Commissioners sIre colug t close the bars
of time clubs un Sunday
Many of the prominent clubs have decided
to cloeo their burs nn Sunday any way For In
stance the Century Club sent a communlca
too to the Board asking If the sale uf lluuor In
In the club house on Sunday xa violation of
the law The club wa Informed that It was the
opinion of the Hoard that such wile xxuuld 0 n
violation of tho law The climb then decided
to sell no liquor at nil on Sunday You see that
so long at there is u doubt about time Sunday
ale of lIquor at a club we must not permit nuch
nlo if we can help It If xxe could huxe a test
case we should know exactly how to act
Commissioner Hoosevilt or Commissioner

When Mayor Wanser of Jersey City an
nounced on Wedneidny that ho would give a
fourday hearing on tlio question of mal Ihl
a contract with the Jersey City Water Company
he sorely disap I
for a new water supply was 1up
isle omoon
pointed because nobody appeared at Is
Thursday to either advocate or oppose the con
tract Yesterday howcxcr he concluded that
tlio seeming Indifference ot Jersey City citizens
must haxo been due either to the extremely hot
weather or to the fort that everybody Interested
in water must have gone to see the race for the
Americas Cup
The Mayor once was code for several
hour yesterday with people who went there to
either oppose or advocate the contract and the
Mayor found himself in pretty hot water at
times Everybody who wont there with one or
two exceptions agreed that better water Is an
absolute necessity but those who opposed the
award of a contract to the Jersey City Company
were In the majority and were far more agres
sloe than those who favored It
Tie xxater has been particularly bad for
several dim > s It emits 1 atTend 0 odor and
the supply has ben so meagre that It dues nut
riii to tho upper floors of the houtei
The first pltlzen who addressed the Mayor on
the subject yesterday was John I Hop en
Ho said bo had ben told that the city officials
xxero purposely tampering with the present
water supply In order to Influence public
opinion In favor of tho pending contracts I
asked the Mayor t put a stop to that kind nf
xvork
IurkAre you willing to make a charge of that
kind 1 asked Mayor Wanfcr
No answered Mr Hopken hesitatingly
I do not know It of my own knowledge but I
have been told so
Told so wont do said the Mayor with just
a slight trace of Irritation In his tone If you
want me to pay any attention to your statement
you will halo to tell me who made tho charge
Mr Hopken Imitated for a few moments and
then gave Principal Ilufkcll of Public School 14
01 authority for his statement Mayor Wansor I
summoned his stenographer and had Mr Hop
kea Btaumvnt taken don verbatim Mr
Hopken sold that Mr llaskcll told him that
pending tho decision upon thu award of the
water contract the water would be made more
foul In order to Influence public opinion The
quality of the water Mr llaskcll told him
could be made worse by pumping when tbo tide
wan low at the Helluvllle Intake Time Mayor
earned from Mr I Hunkcn before he got through
with him that lin had been Interested tn an op

the Mayor approves of time contract raid that
he had consulted every gentleman he met and

nature of the motion Judge Daly said
Why do you nut collect the cot from your
own client 1
M I have tried t and cannot he replied
My client t In Europe and is financially
worthless
I do not think this woman should be com
pelled to pay the costs sula Judge Daly
Nor do I said Mrs Kullam a tall woman
of about 35 years who was txldently much em
barrnaied at her position In addressing time
Court 1 Laxo paid Limo Doctor and here U imia

Judge Daly examined the receipt and called

contractors making children jacket and
