Water Certiorari Proceedings
to Close Today-RiVer
Pollution.

The Jersey City Water Company this
morning on the resumption of the hear
ing on the ccrtiorari instituted against
the award of a permanent water con-
tract called 20 the stand Mr.. Thomas
Lcake, who was for several years m
spector unde1 the soint committee COM
posed OF members OF the Newark Aque-
duct Board and Jersey City Street ana
Water Board, TO tell something about
the pollution OF the Passaic river.
Tile witness said that for several
years he had inspected the river and to
stop it's pollution many people were in
dicted for pouring filth into the stream.
Essex county did nothing with the Of
tenders. Proceedings were taken, ne said
to enjoin the City of Passaic from pol
luting the river III the injunction dio
not prevail and the city continued to
pour it's sewage in to the stream.
Until a very short time ago, he added,
Newark obtained her supply from the
river at a point almost opposite to the
intake of the Jersey City Pumping Sta
'The pollution has increased year by

Mr.. Van Dyne, a civil engineer of Boon
ton, was recalled by ex-senator W. d.
Edwards, and he said that a few years
ago he made surveys, obtained options
on water rights and found out purchase
prices for the Observation-Disclosures & Clarke
Company when they bid for a supply Tor
the city. Witness said that the reservoir
proposed under that bid, namely, Beach
Glen, was the same as that proposed by
the Jersey City Water Company, and for
that company he, Mr.. Van Dyne, had
made estimates necessary to make up Its
bid.
Mr.. Corbin had only one question to
ask on cross-examination, and that was
relative to the requirement OF water
rights by the defendant company.
"Some of the options were secured in
writing and some verbally" repded Mr..
Van Dyne.
