Repeats His Objections to Any Amend* , -.'.rut of the Existing Statute in a let ter to Councilman Spitz, of Passaic. PASSAIC, Sept. 13.—Councilman Joseph Spitz, of the water supply committee of the City Council. ’Is in receipt of a letter (turn Governor Stokes, who, as la well known, wants to have the Potable Water Commission act remain unchanged, anil In which the Governor points out what he says are the dangers in the amendment to the potable water act Introduced in last July, and expresses his willingness to ac cept the Griggs amendments Instead of these. The communication is in reply to a letter written to Governor Stokes by Councilman Spttz. in which Mr. Spitz set forth his views of the water situation and asked the Governor's exact position rela tive to the conflicting/amendments. Gov ernor Stokes write*: My Dear Mr. Spitz—I have your very statesmanlike letter of the fifih und appre ciate the broad and civic viewt you take of this water question. Senator Wakelee's amendments are the amendments that were suggested by ex-Goveiuor Griggs, of your county, ami while In my opinion they are not at all necessary, and do not in any way affect the bill advantageously, I can not see that they can do any special harm. The word corporation’ where it appears In the bill under the Griggs amendments, which Wakelee Introduced by request, is struck out. and the words ‘water com pany' inserted. It seems to me that this would exempt corporations from the re strictions of the bill and weaken it to that extent. However, Governor Griggs takes an opposite view, and as It is a legal question I am not inclined to press the matter, but I do not think It alto fether vital. 1 am very anxious to get he fundamental principles of the bill upon the statute books so that yon will have , something under which you can work and protect yourself, as well as provide for the future. The dangers lie In the amend ments intreduced and passed by the House of Assembly at its last session, which prac tically wipe out the bill and leave you helpless. 'Hie analysis of these amend ments appeared in your papers at the time they were passed. These amendments should be defeated in the Senate by all means. Indeed, I think the members of your county should have them recalled to the House from the Senate. , “E. C. STOKES. Trenton, N. J., Sept. 12, 1907. I Councilman Spitz said today that the water supply committee would act with the legislative committee of the Council and would use every influence to cause the defeat of ‘'aucb amendments ns might be prejudicial to the cause of potable water conservation and flood conservation.'’ SANG AT'FUNERAL OF MEMBER Funeral services were held yesterday * afternoon in honor of Frederick Von den Steinen, In the home of his brother-in-law.

Crowd Was with Him, but the Delegates Were Not—Bishops' Law Is Indorsed, but Not Unanimously. ELIZABETH, Sept. 13.—The Union County Republican convention yester day afternoon nominated the following ticket; Assembly—John R. Union, of Eliza beth; Carlton B. Pierce, of Cranford; A. K. Kfrateln, of Hahway. Surrogate—George T.# Parrot, of Ellfaabetb, Coroner—William H. - Donaldson. of Linden. As everybody expected, Randolph Perkins fell by the wayside, but light ing to the last ditch. Had it been left with the large crowd of spectators in Turn Hall he would apparently have been nominated by acclamation and with a whoop. They cheered lustily and stamped their feet vigorously every time his name was mentioned. They fairly howled for Charles N. Codington, of Westflelds when, in a lively speech, he placed Perk^ps in nomination, and even the delegates applauded Perkins to the echo when he came before the con vention after the nominations had been made and announced that he was no quitter and was ready to go out and support the ticket that had bfen named. The platform contained a paragraph indorsing the Bishops law. On this plank there were several loud "noes” from delegates who represented wards where the German vote is strong when the chairman put to the house the mo tion to adopt the platform. When the chairman again called for ayes and does, to be able to decide which side tad the ascendancy, the chorus of ayes was so vigorous that the noes were lowhere. Six candidates were nominated for the' Assembly, the^'unsuccessful us- I pirants being Randolph Perkins, who; got twenty-nine votes; Edwin G. i VVoodling, of Cranford, tv^ant.y-flve, j and Charles H. Angleman, of Rahway, , twenty. Perkins's actual strength was greater than twenty-nlpe votes, be- i cause many of those who voted for I VVoodling and Angleman did so merely 1 as a blind and would have swung their i votes to the Westfield man had it be- j :ome evident that he had any chance jf w/nning. On a straight issue be tween Perkins and any of the success ful nominees the former would have polled iftout fifty votes. W. C. T. U. CONVENTION.

Sept. 13.—Thirty years ago, counting from a day last spring, two ycung men quit the beautiful bay section of County Cork, Ireland, and set out to make a living in different sections of the world. One was Patrick McManus, the other Henry Moore. One sailed for Liver pool. the other for New York, and Ban try Bay and Dunmanus Bay and the East and West Ridings section of dear old County Cork heard never a word of either for many a long day. Yesterday morning a middle-aged man was walking north In Seventh avenue. He was P.ttrii k McManus. On the opposite side of the avenue, walking south, was n man past middle age, and he was Henry Moore. Moore glanced across the avenue and saw McManus. He knew his old school mate nt a glance. He called, but couldn’t make bis voice <^rry above the notees of the street. Moor* started across the ave nue at a trot, trying to reach McManus. In his eagerness he did not see a swiftly approaching automobile, and in another second he was being rolled under tho wheels of the machine. The chauffeur. Morris Ireland, of 208 East Fiftieth street, driving automobiles for the Automobile Vacuum Cleaning Com pany, quickly stopped. Moore was picked up. and asked those about him to send for McManus, who by this time had walk ed half way up the block between Thirty first and Thirty-second streets. Policeman Flynn, of the West Thirtieth Street Station, after telephoning for an ambulance, started oft after McManus. Moore bad been put in the ambulant when McManus, guided back to the scene by the policeman, came in sight. ' Mac” looked at the man in the ambulance. “Why. Harry, for God’s same, tell me what has happened?” The smile on the face of the man in the ambulance prefaced his words: “I was after you, Mac, crossing the street, when that boy over thpre ran over me. But it‘s worth it, Mac. How are you?” “Well and hearty, and hope you Were, Harry.” McManus stood on the back step of the ambulance beside Dr. Foucar of the New York Hospital, while the two old school mates began to tell each other all that happened in the last thirty years. At the hospital they told McManuq that Moore Awas in pretty bad shape, with many contusions and possible Internal In juries. PASTORS TALK TO MEN TONIGHT. The Men’s League of Central Presby terian Church will meet tonight, when the Rev. Charles fcverc9t Granger will give h practical talk to men. This will be tue league's first meeting of the fall and win ter season. Meetings of the league will be held on the second Friday of each month. Timely topics will be discussed at these meetings. >• ..... .Lv; •' - .. „ ■ , PRISONERS IN PENITENTIARY MUST WORK Handkerchief Industry Fa vored by Freeholders. Chunty to Derive Revenue. Without a word of discussion and acting as a unit, the Board of Free holders at its September meeting, which did not close until "the shades o^ night were falling fast,” yesterday decided that it would be in the line of progress to keep the prisoners in the penitentiary employed at some in dustry that would not compete with honest labor. A resolution to that j elTect, authorizing the committee on i county prisons, which is in charge of I that institution, to advertise fur bids for the employment of such prisoners in accordance with the terms of the ! act of April 18, 1894, and to accept the most favorable bid for such labor, was passed. , The resolution of the committee on penitentiary was indorsed by a sub committee at a recent meeting, and the resolution was presented by Free- ! holder John R. Kling as chairman of the committee on county prisons. Its specific object is to consider a con tract for the manufacture of handker chiefs, in which line, according to those who investigated the matter, there is no competition. The contractor is to supply the neces sary machinery, and the county will get the benefit of the convict labor. A system of premiums, such as is in vogue in State prison, is to be intro duced in connection with the innova tion. There was some discussion over a •resolution introduced by Freeholder Ed ward C. Eaton on behalf of Valentine Braun, who has a contract at the hos pital buildings in Overbrook for excava tion and hauling work. Mr. Eatqn wanted Braun to receive $6 a day per team, instead of $5, and said that the work was worth it. Freeholders David A. McBride, Jeremiah Baldwin, Fred Baldwin and Wallace Ougheltree, how ever, disagreed and the resolution was lose on a lie vine, rreenoiuers jonn Scanlon arul Hugh Gallagher favored (he Increase and Director Michael Barry also spoke for It. Acting upon a recommendation of the committee on public buildings, which recently threshed out the bills against the county presented by Engineer George F. Drum for his work in con nection with the investigation at Over brook, the board ordered that the bills, which amount to $1,969.87, »be ordered paid as soon as Mr. Drum had signed the formal release from further claims against the county, which was read at the same time. Mr. Drum’s original bills had exceeded the original appro priations made for the purpose, $2,000, but in order to keep within it he had waived certain amounts, bringing it down to tho bill that was passed. The release precludes the possibility o£ fu ture claims for services rendered. It was ordered that placards be posted in the auditor's office calling attention to the fact that bills, in order to insure payment, must be in that office on the Monday preceding its meeting, so that the members would not be hampered in signing the big batch. The board confirmed the action of the finance committee in raising the salary of Enos Runyon, chairman of the County Board of Elections, from ! $60(1 to $750. There were seven votes against the confirmation and twice as many in favor of it. The award of the contract for the building of the Central avenue bridge over the canal to the Hay Foundry and Iron Works by the Eleventh Ward bridge committee at $49,985 was also confirmed, and so was the employment of Henry A. Hickok as consulting engi neer, he to receive 1 per cent, of the cost of construction of the bridge. After the board had adjourned until October 10 the Freeholders viewed the work of the ‘‘Invincible electric reno vator,” a new cleaning device, the mechanism of which was used on the floors of the auditor's office. -- iSOMERSET’S SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVENTION. — Newark Men Attend and Make Ad i dresses—Officers Elected for the Ensuing Year.
