FOR 4 HEBREW COLONY,
LAND IN NEw-JERsEY PURCHASED TO CARRY OUT
BARON HIRsCH's PLANS.


BARON HIRsCH's PLANS.
A. S. Solomon, the general agent of the Baron
Hirsch Fund for Jewish Immigrants, announced yeser
day that he had nearly completed arrangements for
the purchase of large tract of land near Harrison,
" j. on which he intended to erect from $50 10 300
cottages for the accommodation Of Hebrews who are
now living in the crowded tenement districts of this
and other cities. This is an experimental step in
carrying ont the design Of the Baron Hirsch Fund
Mr.. solomon said to a Tribune reporter yesterday
1.-THE plot of land which about to purchase is
on the lines of three great railways the Pennsylvania,
Delaware, Lackawana and Western and the Erie so
that II is in easy reach of those who engaged in
business in New York, while it is but two three
miles from Newark which also is great manufactur-
ing centre The Edison electric light works also
very near. The cottages for the Of recently
arrived Jewish immigrants many Of whom are now
living in the Overcrowded tenement districts OF New
York. The cottages will be well-buih detached
houses of eight rooms, with yard large enough to
enable the tenant to grow vegetables for family USE
"If the tenant desires will sell him the house at
low price, the payment Of $3.50 to 5000, as the
case may be, the balance to remain at per cent 50
that the interest will In nearly every be less than
what they actually paying in rent for their present
filthy abodes In the cities We will begin this expert
ment with only fifty houses, which we expect to have
ready for occupancy In few months. II these
rant it, we will go right ahead, that before the close
of the year from $50 to 800 cottages will be COM
pleted
"In order to avoid the appearance Of a charitable
settlement the architecture Of these cottages will be
diversified so to please the finer senses and the
better tastes Of the more cultivated immigrants. We
are in hopes that this experiment may settle the long
vexed question Of tenement houses in large cities,
for II our nlan is carried out successfully other
organizations will undoubtedly follow our example.
one Of the objects have in view is to Amercanze
the Jewish immigrants and 10 assimilate them with
the masses and thoroughly Undue them with the ideas
of the American Constitution and American institu-
ons. None of the Whilst, Socialist or Anarchist ele-
ments will be tolerated."

Yesterday, inquiry was made OF Mt. farSonS

machines had been set up in accordance WIN
an order received by him through the secretary oi

had been granted to place twenty-five on the MACHINES
in the Park and he was directed to set them Oh inc
walks in such positions that they would inlure Ihe
appearance of the walks little as possible ana
vet to place them where they would not be secluded
He added that he had followed these instructions TO the
best of his ability.
Application was then made TO the Park Depart
