COUNTY AND RAILROAD.
Lehigh Valleys Disputed Right to
Bridge the Road.

When the Court of Chancery recon-
vened yesterday after recess the Chancel-
lor continued the hearing in the applica-
tion Of the Board Of Freeholders to re-
strain the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany from changing the grade OF Avenue
A in Bayonne.
Mr.. Charles Corbin continued his argu-
ment for the railroad company He said
that the company owned the land for a
distance of 100 feet on either side OF Ave-
nue. A,and would place the abutments for
the bridge which 1t proposes to
erect over Avenue A, 100 feet apart on it's
own land. The brtdge would clear the
avenue at a height of thirteen feet and
would in no way interfere with the road.
Furthermore the company had agreed TO
pave and sewer the street for an entire
block under the bridge and the ~affidavits,
both of the company and the county's
engineers, showed that the grade pro-
posed blythe ordinance of Bayonne. CIV
ing the company permission 10 change
the grade, was an easy one.
It had been claimed, Mr.. Corbin con-
tinued, that II the road was sunk there 1t
would obstruct the view. He thought 1T
would be a greater detriment il the COM
pany was obliged to elevate its tracks
higher at that point and raise embank-
ments on each side of the road. He
argued that under the general railroad
law and the act of 1874 the company had
full power to change the grade of streets
by either carrying It's tracks over or I'M
der the roads without the consent of the
municipal authorities. Mr.. Corbin de-
clared that 1t was nonsense TO argue that
the city OF Bayonne could not contract
with a corporation to pave, grade and
sewer a street. It had just as much
right, he commended, to contract with the
railroad company as with any other con-
tractor. The company had never received
any notice, he contended, that Avenue A
was to be a part of the County Road
prior to the passage of the Bayonne or
dinance. On the contrary 1t was Rener-
ally understood that Avenue B would be
ne route. 1t would be impossible to
build the Lehigh Valley road through
Bayonne without changing. the grade OF
some of the streets. .
Mr.. Corbin argued at length against
the proposition or the county's counsel,
that the Freeholders obtained control
over Avenue A as soon as they filed the
survey for the new road. he maintained
that sven If the boulevard were built
first the company would still have the
right to cross Avenue A with a bridge.
Ex-J Judge Smith replied to Mr.. Corbin,
claiming tina the Lehigh Valley had
made no agreement with the county aud
he claimed that the county's interest
should be protected by y formal agree
ment in writing. The Chancellor took
the papers and said he would decide the
matter on Saturday.

Tho new pins were put up on the
renovated alleys of the Palma Club last

markable rush. Every man secured
doubles. Macheld. LANCE and
Jordan each caught two strikes
and also Seeley and Smith
each q strike and spare. 1t gave the team
the victory by 8 pins. No. ! was not so
lucky in it's game with No. s. The lead
was held by No. l by rs In the seventh,

bout and travelled together from start to
finish. No. s won by nine pins. The
other game between Jeans No. z
