Junction Crossing Suit

Special 10 the Suisdau Mo11aino Newx
NEWARK. May is, 1891. Judge Depue
delivered his charge to the jury In the
case Of the Central Railroad of New Jer-
sey against the Jersey City, Newark and
Western Company, on appeal from an
award Of commissioners, this morning in
the Circuit Court. The award was for
damages to the Central Railroad Com
pauy for the crossing of its tracks, near
Brillss flag station, by the Jersey City,
Newark and Western Railroad, which is
an extension OF the Lehigh Valley Rail-
road.
The Lehigh Valley Company has signf-
fled its intention of taking tract 100 feet
wide for its crossing. and Judge Depue
said the jury must allow compensation.
This space lis capable of allowing six
tracks to cross, and the jury was in
structed to take that fact into considera-
tion. a frog is TO be inserted In the Cen
trails tracks at this point, aud Judge
Depue said that that company has right
to have that frog inserted under its own
supervision aud at the expense OF the
Lehigh Valley Company.
A signal sLation,n continued the
Judge, rs also to be erected at this CROSS
ing, and the jury is TO determine which
Of the two systems proposed shall be
adopted.
1.-THE jury, in determining this case.
must not lose sight of the inpolicy Of
discouraging competing railroads. We
want cheap freight and passenger traffic.
and the only way we can get II Is by en-
couraging competing lines. The Lehigh
Company desires to erect a system of sig
nails at this crossing similar to those III
use at Perth Amboy and will
cost only about $500. Tne Central
Company wants a system known AS
the ssSemiphorev system. This has sig
nal LOCO feet from the crossing, and If by
any chance the engineer of the train does
not see it and runs past it his train will
be switched to side track This system
will cost s., 600. and the jury is to deter
mine which system should be adopted.n
= The jury brought in verdict this after
noon of $35, 473. SO for the plaintiff. This
amount is for land. frogs and a signal
system and their maintenance.

The Chill Wind Blew and the Crowd Had
Hard Work to Keep Warm
The opening OF Caledonia Park occurred
last night and ushered in the picnic sea-
son. The cold wind which kept blowing
all night rather chilled the enthusiasm OF
the large crowd Of schippies'' ard young
fellers" who gathered TO celebrate the
event.
The first dance began at about nine
o'clock, aud all the men danced in their
oyercoats aud the girls in their sacks,
Beer flowed freely, and toward twelve
O'Clock some of the girls grew slightly
festive. One or them, who was clothed
ia black sack. gray skirt and small hat,
with large patch OF red upon IL, Insisted
on pulling her partner, sickly looking
youth, with a small black moustRehe, ali
over the dancing floor. Observation-Disclosures his
protests. She became tired after while
and both went out from the dancing
platform TO rest on the grassy banks.
The GOODNESS of the night drove the
dancers away early and the

night No improvements have been made
in the park Il is still the same uneuIti-
vated waste OF untrimined grass. and the
dancing platform is more weather beaten

Special to the SUNDAY Morrislq Ne0s.
NEWARK, May IS. 1s9l.-Several hun
bred warrants were drawn by the Board
of Street and Water Commissioners to-
day In favor Of laborers upon the streets
and public grounds. They aggregated
s., s04. and were signed by Charles March.
General Superintendent OF Works They
were also countersigned by the Mayor.
The first one was presented ct the Treas
urer's window about ten o'clock, and
the Treasurer expressed some surprise
Il called for s23. The Comptroller and
the Board of Works Clerk were IN the
Office at the time.
While the Treasurer was examining the
paper. the Comptroller asked him whether
he would honor it, or would let ir take
the course agreed upon 10 regard to the
warrant presented Yesterday The City
Treasurer decided to let it take the
same course and refused TO cash it.
just before noon nearly 400 other war
rants came in, to all Of Which the reply
was given that there was no money with
which to pay them. The laporerE received
these orders over the counter in the
Street Department, down stairs, from
Mr.. Hopper, an assistant under Street
Commissioner Hunkele. When the labo-
rers returned with the announcement
that the City Treasurer declined to pay
them, word was sent to superintendent
Marsh. who replied that the Issue should
be continued nevertheless.
At the Office of the Commissioners it
was said this afternoon that If the City
Treasurer declined to pay the warrants,
they knew of no one who would do so.
Many OF the holders of the warrants,
mostly those who need the money, called
upon number of their friends and sew
eral politicians about town TO see II they
could not secure an advance OF the
amount provided for in the warrant. In
most cases they were successful as the
warrants were transferable and per
teetly good
A conference took place between the
counsel OF the respective parties to the
controversy, over the constitutionallty of
the Board OF Works law in ex-ChanceIlor
munyon's Office today. It was opened at
eleven o'clock, and occupied three hours.
The facts OF the case were agreed upon,
substantially, and there will probably be
no taking of testimony. Associated
with ex-Judxe Fort. for The contestants,
are ex-senator John w. Taylor and Gil
bert Collins, of Jersey City, Messrs
yon, Henry Young and ex-Judge
Stevens are for the Board OF

O'Clock when the conference was con-
cluded, and the lawyers had not vet
taken lunch. Colonel Price was asked in
regard TO the proposed writ of manda-
mus. II am going to get something TO
eat now, he said, ssand as soon as | can
get back will begin on that | will try
to get the necessary aflidaviEs in shape
and present them to Judge Depue, if pos

Application for the writ will probably
