JOHN HAGGERTY DEAD Hoboken’s Democratic Lead er Gut Down in His Prime After a Brief Illness. HAD MANY REAL FRIENDS He Did Effective Work and Talked Little—Sketch of His Eventful Career. Democratic Leader John Haggerty, of Hoboken, died at bis home, Xo. 230 Park tvenue, that city, yesterday morning, ie had been ailing for more than three aonths with a lung affection and was ■xpected to die since his return from Liberty, X. Y., last Friday. Arrauge tttents are being made for the funeral, which will be held from the family home on Wednesday morning. The re mains will be taken to Our' Lady of Grace Church, where a solemn high mass of requiem will be celebrated at teu o’clock. Interment will be made in the Holy Xante Cemetery. Mr. Haggerty is survived by a widow and seven children, four of whom are girls. He was born in Urooklyu forty fonr years ago and moved to Hoboken with his parents when lie was four years old. His early educnitcu was received at St. Mary’s Parochial School in that city. He also attended Public School Xo. 1 and subsequently entered St. Francis Xavier’s College in New York. As a young man he joined his father and brother Daniel, who is now con nected with the Comity Clerk's office, in the contracting business and formed the wide acquaintance in Hoboken which afterward became the basis of his success as Democratic leader there. HAD MANY REAL FRIENDS. It is doubtful if any politician in the :ity. had as many real friends as Hag ferty. “Jack.” as everyone called him, had no enemies but political ones, and even these admitted his sterling worth. Haggerty’s word was his bond, and he was never known to repudiate a promise. He rarely talked polities, but was a great listener to political talkers, and many funny stories are told about how he used to let loquacious folks unbur den themselves of stupendous municipal secrets, and leave them with the impres sion that “Jack’s” knowledge of local affairs was woefully inefficient. Leader Davis once remarked of Hag gerty that he could do more effective work and talk less about it than any politician in Hoboken. It was probably this phase of his make-up that explained his success as a leader. Haggerty’s first position of political preferment was doorkeeper in the State Senate. He succeeded the present Po lice Captain Robert Bell as License In spector in Hoboken, and later became connected with the City Clerk’s office. He succeeded Martin McDermott as City Clerk of Hoboken during Mayor Fagan’s administration. LAMPPOST CONFERENCES. Haggerty held the majority of con claves with his lieutenants under a lamp post outside of the City Hall, and news papers here and in New York published stories comparing his meetiug place with ! “Bill” Devery’s pump. The comparison was never regarded by Haggerty as com plimentary to himself. Haggerty showed no indication of the malady which resulted in his death until the later part of September, when be be gan to have hemorrhages. An operation was performed on him the following month and he was taken to Lakewood. He remained there for seven weeks with out improving and was then removed to Liberty. He spent five weeks at the lat ter place and when he requested to -be taken to Hoboken last week it was gen erally understood that be was returning borne to die. Since he relinquished his official duties in the City Hall Assistant City Clerk James Loudrigan has been acting as City Clerk. County Clerk Matfice Stack has assumed -the Democratic leadership in Hoboken. COUNCIL TAKES ACTION. The Councilmen met this morning and [ decided to assemble in the City Hall Wednesday morning and attend the fu I neral in a body. It was also decided to B close all offices in the City Hall from to ■ morrow afternoon at one o'clock until af [ ter the funeral. These resolutions were W adopted;— “Whereas, God in His infinite wisdom has removed from our midst our beloved friend, fellow official and comrade. John I Haggerty, whose life-long residence in the city has identified him during his life-time with its best and highest in terests; and whose services as a public official during many years secured for , him the confidence and approval of the community and esteem and love of his fellow officials; therefore be it “Resolved, By the Mayor and Council 'v. the City of Hoboken, in special ses sion duly assembled ' for the purpose, that we sincerely deplore the death in the years of his ripe manhood of our friend and fellow official, City Clerk John Haggerty, whose years of earnest l[)r7 j.

They wore fine ruffled shirts, tight fitting boots, long black coats and plug hats. ' Every river boy hoped some day to become a pilot. fjjven the young planters and merchants emulated their costumes and the belles of the river cities set their caps for them. The pilots were the great matrimonial catches of the territory. When the inhabitants of the couutry for miles round a landing place would travel to the river oji Sun days to see the steamboat, the pilot, conscious of the important position ac corded him in the society of the back woods people, would swagger up and down the hurricane deck, "a glorious figure, hat tiited. smoking a great cigar and fitting his fingers into his magenta kid gloves.
