LOCAL INTEREST IN
THE COMINC ELECTION.
If Constitutional Amendment is
Adopted Cases can go to Court
of Errors at Once
All of the Perth Amboy lawyers and
many residents are very much inter
ested in the proposed constitutional
amendments which will be submitted
to the people of this State for accept
* anoe or rejection on the 22d of Sep
tember next. The particular amend
meht in whioh they are interested, is
that which does away with the
Supreme Court in oases in whioh writs
of error are granted.
By the adoption of this amendment,
all cases in which writs of error are
granted, will go immediately to the
Ooart of Errors and Appeals for con
sideration. As it is now it may be
tskeri to that coilrt of last resort, but
in many oases it is first taken to the
Supreme Oourt, and then if the de
cision is not satisfactoiy to both par
ties, the oase may be carried into the
Oourt, of Errors.
By the ndoDtion of the proposed
amendment, the expense of carrying
the case into the Supreme Oourt will
be done away with entirely, a feature
whioh is greatly appreciated by those
who are obliged to litigate. It will
practically make the Oourt of Errors
a continuous court, and decisions will
be made and handed down a srreat
deal quioker than now and the legal
business greatly expedited.
The State Bar Association lias
approved the amendment, and as in
dividuals the members will work for
its adoption. It will greatly benefit
lawyers who are obliged to oarry their
oases into the Oourt of Errors, and
their clients will be benefited in that
they will not have to incur anywhere
near as much expense as under the
present system.

Neero Unlawfully Held.
MACON, Ga., June 25.? In the United
States court Judge Emery Specr im
posed a fine of each on .three
young men, William Shy, Arthur Glaw
son and Robert Turner, for holding a
negro in involuntary servitude. He sus
pended the fine under' conditions. In
fining the young men he said: "In view
of the fact that it is the first crime of
this kind which has ever occurred in
Georgia and because of the frank con
fession of the young men sentence is
imposed in order to convince the public
that the purpose of the court is to warn
and deter others from a like crime.
During good behavior the fine is sus
pended upon payment of $100 by each
party." The offense was that the
young men, who are prominent farm
ers, caught a negro who was in debt to
them, gave him a whipping and made
him go to work for them. Judge Specr
said that the problem of the times could
not be solved by harsh measures and
that the laws of Georgia were against
such treatment.
Extra SeMsion In Kanaas.
TOPEKA, Kan., June 25.? The Kan
sas legislature convened in extra ses
sion to relieve the flood situation in the
Kaw valley. Most of the members of
both houses are present. Thirty-four
tlood bills were introduced In the house
and nearly as many in the senate. A
Dig fight has developed on the question
of making an appropriation to relieve
the flood sufferers as well as to author
ize the building of bridges. It was ex
pected that Governor Bailey in His
message would outline some plan of
relief, but he did not, leaving that for
Ihe legislature to handle. The govern
or says he did not care to dictate in the
matter.
Neeburban Winn at Detroit,
DETROIT, Mich., June 25.? The
track at Highland park was very
heavy. Neeburban, the favorite, won a
seven furlong dash in which he proved
to be much the best and led the field all
the way. Fade Meny, backed from 30
to 1 to 15 to 1, was the winning out
sider.
A Physician Healed.
Dr. Geo, Ewing, a practicing physi
cian of Smith's Grove, Ky.. for over thir
ty years, writes his personal experience
with Foley's Kidney cure: "For years I
had been greatly bothered with kidney
and bladder trouble and enlarged pros
tate gland. I used everything known to
the brofession without relief, until I com
menced to use Foley's kidney Cure, Af
ter taking thiee bottles I was entirely
relieved and cured. I prescribe it now
daily in my practice and heartily recom
mend its use to all physicians for such
troubles. 1 have prescribed it in hun
dreds of cases with perfect success. Sex

May Be Bix Strike- of Frelgbtmen.
CHICAGO, June 25? The calling out
of the Chicago and Alton, men may
cause a general strike of all freight
handlers employed by railroads center
ing in Chicago. According to Presi
dent Curran of the Freight Handlers'
ur'.on, unless the management of the
Alton road shall recede from the stand
taken it will be necessary for him to
extend the strike#to the other lines to
enforce the demands of the union.
There is no question of wages in the
controversy, as less than a month ago
all the roads signed a new wage scale
granting the freight handlers a sub
stantial increase in wages. President
Currnn asserts that two men were dis
charged because they were prominent
in the Freight Handlers' union, and he
says these two men must be reinstat
ed. The railroad management declares
that the men wcro discharged for neg
lect of duty and cannot be taken back.
Strike Shuts B>?vn Paper Mtlln.
GLENS FALLS. N. Y.. June 25.? The
firemen employed at the International
Paper company's mills at Fort Edward
have quit work. This, in addition to
the strike of unskilled laborers, com
pelled the closing down of the entire
plant. The firem n's grievance Is that
they could not do all the work required
of them, as several had been laid off.
The unskilled laborers say they will
not go back unless they receive 20 cents
an hour. The continuance of the shut
down now seems to rest on the support
given the strikers by the skilled men.
These have it in their power to break
the strike should they consent to work
with other than union laborers.

NEW YOUK, Juno 25? That the af
foctlon of New York for Sir Thomai
LIpton has not iKminished was shown
When he arrived by the White Stai
liner Oceanie. All the way from the
Narrows to the pier the bis ship moved
to the music of tooting whistles and
hearty chr><?rs.
Sir Thomas was delighted as a boy at
the evidences of good feeling and an
nonnced that if he does not succeed in
lifting the cup in August he considers
it his duty to make another attempt.
The foggy weather outside retarded
the progress of the Oceanic, and it was
past noon when the familiar scenes in
side the Horseshoe greeted the eye of
Sir Thomas Lipton.
His steam yacht, the Erin, fully
dressed with flags, was awaiting the
Oceanic in the lower bay and escorted
the big ship to quarantine.
As soon as the ocean vessel stopped
at quarantine to let the health and cus
toms officers abourd the Privateer,
with the reception committee aboard,
went alongside. A ladder was lowered
from a companion way, and General
Corbln scrambled up to the deck of the
Oceanic, closely followed by John D.
Crimmins and the othpr members of
the committee.
Sir Thomas greeted each of them by
name? in fact, he greeted all those who
came aboard by name, and he had not
seen some of them in five years. Re
porters who had met him on his previ
ous trips to New York were accosted
by name, and incidents were recalled
by Sir Thomas that had entirely es
caped their recollection.
The Irish sportsman wore his famil
iar suit of blue serge, with a yachting
eap, a blue necktie and tan shoes. Be
side him as he greeted the American
committee were William Fife, Jr., de
signer of the three Shamrocks, and his
three secretaries? West, Wood and
Puncan.
General Corbin's first duty was to ex
tend to Sir Thomas the invitation to
take luncheon at the White House to
morrow.
Sir Thomas said that it had been his
intention to go aboard the Erin today
and there remain until after the races,
but he could not refuse the invitation.
He said it would give him pleasure to
go to Washington as the guest of the
president.
Then he posed for the photographers
with unfailing good nature. He posed
with his cap on and with his cap off,
facing the eameras and standing side
ways, leaning against the side of the
cabin or braced with his arms folded.
At the invitation of Sir Thomas all
hands adjourned to the smoking room.
When the glasses had been filled Gen
eral Chaffee proposed a toast to the
Shamrock IIJ, General Chaffee said
that if the cup must be lost the Ameri
can people would rather see Sir Thom
as win It than anybody else.
Enicliahmen Win at Laeroaae,
PHILADELPHIA, June 25. ? The
Cambridge and Oxford lacrosse team
defeated the Swarthmore college team
at Manhelm by 9 goals to 8. From the
beginning Swarthmore began to push
their opponents, anfl four goals within
twenty minutes was the result. It took
the visitors some little time to get their
bearings, but when they did they quick
ly placed a sufficient number of goals
to their credit to give them the victory.
