the said road is in the condition as re-
norted to your Honorable Board by the
Director of the Board. The FLING be-
tween the tracks is not in a proper con-
dition for traffic, making it dat1gerous
for wagons to turn either way. and es-
pec5aily the northern portion of said
road IS almost impossible for agons to
mass over. and they are invariably com
pajled to take a longer route. The tracks
aaid at the Homestead crossing are a
eeath-trap for horses to pass over and
should be Immediately removed. The
rest Of the road is In a similar condition
no to the bridge. crossing. the Hack
ensack river. which bridge Is in such a
weakened condition on account OF trolley
cars passing over same. We find that
said company has not lived up to the
