TRENTON, N. J., Sept. 18.—The del to the Tepublican convention fled into the house atl2o’clock. As they seated themselves it was learned that Hudson county In caucus had cast seventy-seven votes for Dixon and three for Hill, and that Essex county had a solid vote for Dixon: The Camden and Cumberland delegates were not in their seats when ex-Senator Hobart called the convention to order at 12:2 They came in at 12:30. Congressman William Walter Phelps Was made temporary chairman. = {PRECH OF CHAIRMAN Beare = fe made ® vigorous speech, in the course whien he attacked the Pennsylvania railroad. and charged that corporation with defeating Fred’k A. Potts in 1880, and said that the corporations had lost their influence, and that the suspicion that any man was under obligations to a corpora— tion Was the surest means of his defeat He did not think there should be any corporation interference in the present campaign. Mr. Phelps then compared Mr. Abbett, the democratic candidate, with Ah Sin, whose Ways were dark and devious. He believed the sky Was Milled with harbingers of victory. ‘There Were no stalwarts or half-breeds in New Jersey, but only republicans. He said, referring to the national situation, that the people last year wished ardently for republican defeat because they wanted to punfsh the party; now the people are anxious for republican victory because they have been punished themselves. He said, in con- Unuation, that the people want protection und no more tinkering with the tariff. JUDGE DIXON WILL BE THR NOMINEE. After appointing the regular committees for routine work the convention adjourned until 2:30, with every indication that Judge Dixon will be the nominee, ——— Gov. Pattison’s Veto. HIS OBJECTION TO THE PAY RESOLUTION. Hanrispura, Pa, Sept. 18—Gov. Pattison to- day vetoed thé concurrent resolution Instructing the appropriations committees of both houses to report the appropriation bill for pay for senators and members up to and including September 101, and toreport no other appropriation bill except for officers and employes. The governor with- held his approval of the resolution on the ground of unconstitutionality, and calling attention to the fact that the law’provides that members of the legislature shall receive ten dollars per diem at each adjourned or special seaston, and that It 13 not within the power of the legislature to dimin- ish that compensation. ‘THE VETO SUSTAINED IN THE SENATE. When the message was received in the senate a vote was taken on the question, “Shall the resolu- tion pass, notwithstanding the veto of the gover- nor?” and resulted, yeas 26, nays 13. As two-thirds of the members of the senate failed to vote in favor of the resolution it was defeated, and the governor’s veto was sustained. In the house the veto message was read, and upon motion was tabled. A Clergyman Before the Labor Com- mittee, New York, Sept. 1%—The Rev. Heber Newton testified to-day before Senate sub-committee on education and labor, The diMiculties met with by the labor reformer, he said, were the intemperate habits of the laboring classes, and the improper Methods to which labor resorted in endeavoring to accomplish its desires. The great want of the People he considered to be industrial education. Manian in Chicago. CntcaGo, Sept. 18.—Eaward Hanlan arrived here from St. Louls this morning for the purpose of meeting E. T. Platt, the representative or Laycock, the Australian sculler, with a view to arranging amatch in Australia, Platt, however, has been called to New York on business, whither Hanlan goes this evening. The accident by which Lay- cock broke his leg will, of course, delay any nego- Uations for a race. i The Bears? Actions To-day. TRANSACTIONS IN WALL STREET.

Y. Savage, of the New Orleans district. ‘The charges were that Savage had acted in bad faith in issuing his individual receipts in leu of stamps to a number of persons without account- ing for the money. The charges were found to be based upon facts, and the whole amount col- lected was $141. Postmaster Dunn is Of the opinion that Savage had been merely the tool of ex-Collector Pleasant, whom he regarded asthe real culprit. Agent Neustadt informs the department that Postmaster Dunn intimated that similar irregularities could be discerned in the other divisions of the old third district, PATENTS were issued to-day as follows: B. & Benson, Baltimore, combined differential gear and friction clutch; Nathan 0.

AN InsPECTION OF THE CiT¥ Post OFFICE— Postmaster General Gresham this morning visited the city post office and inspected all the depart- tents of the office in company with Postmaster Conger. The Postmaster was of the opinion that the Washington office was an excellent office, but, in a very poor building for the purpose. It is un- derstood that an cffort will be made soon to se- cure better accomma dations for the post office or to improve the present quarters, PosTMasTeR Concer Exrects a Surr.—The re cent order prohibiting postmasters from delivering money orders or registered packages to the order of M. A. Dauphin has been strictly enforced at the Washington office. Since the order was issued no demand has been made for the payment of money orders, but a demand has been made on the post- master for registered matter and has been refused. Postmaster Conger has had fol \otice served ‘on him to deliver the matter, antl ery ‘Sulit will be entered against him, ‘THE RIVERDALE’s BomeRs.—Gen, Dumont, su- pervising inspector general of steam vessels, ‘stated to-day, in reference to the published state- ments of Arthur Hyatt, an expressman on the steamer Riverdale, to the effect that a hole had been bursted in the boiler of the Riverdale the day previous to the accident and again on the day of the accident, that he had obtained that informa- tion when in New York, and had furnished it to the supervising inspector, and that Hyatt nad Deen enbpoonacd toappear on the llth of Sep- mber. New Bonp Catt.—The Secretary of the Treasury will propably make another bond call to-morrow or Thursday. It is thought that the amount will ‘be $15,000,000, DECLINE OF THE CHOLERA IN EcyPt.—The United States consul at Cairo, Egypt, informs the Depart- ment of State, under date of August 16th, that the in that city is “te raj only ve deaths having Bok Feported within twenty-four hours, The English government, witn the acquiescence of the iy Egypt th it es re aut oriiee, ae, eae Nile, which lately filled with water the canals of the infected districts and ‘cleaned out the poisonous matter and filth. from cholera there was tever in Fee SORE and an epidemioor fever had CrviL SERvicg Examinarions.—The lst of elizi- Dies for the general departmental service, by re- cent examinations, is it ts somewnat Gefective in the fact thet goin hota fair dow. among the different states, This fact will Tender other examinations ‘soon, Even When there tsa lafge lst,on the books it 1s pro- pee hold once in six mont TRE POT SIMMERING.

THE SUBJECT UNDER CONSIDERATION BY THE CIVIL 3 SERVICE COMMISSIONERS. ‘The political assessment question, as raised by the publication in Tae Star of the Mahone cir- cular to department employes, is, it 1s stated, a matter of grave consideration by the civil service commissioners. A prominent official who has been much interested in the development and enforcement of the clvil-service law, stated to a Star reporter that any private citizen could pros- ecute under the sections of tne civil-service law making It a penal offense for public oMficials, mem- bers of Congress and others to sotielt polltuical con- tributions as well as the civil service commission ers. “Of course the civil service commissioners can do nothing now,” said the official. *-They cannot Teach out Into'the air. They must have a sub- stantial basis of facts before beginning any prose cution. ‘They have to stay by the law, and will see that it is enforced, if it 1s fu their power, If it is true that $2.50 a month ts exacted as dues to an association, that 18 a very thin disguise to cover @ political assessment, and no court would fall to see through 1t.”” The Reduction in Postage. POSTMASTERS IN SEARCH OF INFORMATION—THE OLD ‘TWO-CENT STAMPS BEING UTILIZED. A large number of letters are being recelved from postmasters throughout the country asking when the reduction In po-tage would take effect. In spite of the circulars that have been sent out there does not seem to be a very clear understand- ing of what exactly {3 going to happen on the 1st of October. The department officials think that they will be able to supply all the offices with the new stamp by the time their issue has been deter- mined upon. To guard against the contingency of a failure in this respect, about half the offices have been supplied with the old two-cent Issue, It is probable, however, that the supply of —— envelopes wi not be sufficient to meet the de- mand. Those having the three-cent stamped en- Yelopes on hand after October ist will be relieved by the department as soon as arrangements can be perfected for making the exchange. This will not be done at once. —__—_++-____ ‘The Pension List. COMMISSIONER DUDLEY’S ESTIMATES LESS THIS YEAR THAN LAST—POINTS FROM HIS FORTHCOMING AN- ‘NUaL REPORT. Col. Dudley, the Commissioner of Penstons, told &@ Stan reporter to-day that he was engaged in Preparing his annual’ report, and from the data now in his possession he thought that his esti- mates for the next year would be much less than last. Of the onc hundred millions appropriated for last year, there would be about thirty-nine millions left in the Treasury. A large number of cases had been examined, but mhny of these had Deen passed over. He would recommend that the force of Clerks in the field be increased, and the office force decreased, making a total reduction in the present foree of about 150 clerks. This reduc- tion Was mainly caused by the cMctency of the force, which enabled a smalier number to handle a larger volume of work. —__—+e-_ The Greely Party. THEY HAVE PROVISIONS ENOUGH FOR A YEAR. Secretaries Chandler and Lincoln were in con- sultation to-day in refereuce to tue Grecly party. It 1s impossible at this writing to state Positively what conclusion was reached, but 1% 1s understood that _ information has been received that the Greely purty 1s supplied with provisions sufficient to sustain them for over a year yet, and that there is con- sequently no necessity for starting a reltef expedi- tion this fall. The proposed expedition has ther: fore been abandoned. Another consultation will be held this afternoon, at which Dr. Bessels will be present, and arrangements will probably be made for the reltef of the Garlington party. —__—_—__ +65 A West Porxt Caper DisMissep.—Cadet Arthur L.

In nearly all of these branches of the local government there will be an inereese, and particularly this is lcoked for in the department of public schools, as the in- crease of pupils more than keeps pace with the increase of school buildings and the facilities for teaching the pupils These matters will engige the atteation of the Commissioners from now until December. The school board have not yet made thelr report for estimate of expenditures for the next fiscal year. Points from the Hill Report.
