DIFFERENCES OVER WATER RATES IN JERSEY

DIFFERENCES OVER WATER RATES IN JERSEY
CITY RESULT IN THE DISCHARGE or

The big sugar refinery operated by the Sugar
Trust In Jersey City will be closed and clever
hundred employees will be thrown out Of employ
ment Six hundred men were dismissed last even
ing. and the other five hundred will be discharged
the material In process OF
manufacture is disposed Of
IL is said that the Trust contemplated closing
of its large reineries. but intended continuing
operations at the Jersey City works. The trouble
over the water rates caused change in the ar
rangement. These rates were advanced one-third
by the Street and Water Board on May last. The
company recently received its bill at the advanced
rate. It was for $4,000. The companys attorney.
former Senator Edwards. finally made an agree
ment with Mayor Hoos by which the company
agreed to pay the bill and the Mayor promised to
have the old rate restored This done. Then
the Mayor learned that the company had for eish-
teen years had special rate of G112 cents for each
thousand cubic feet of water, while other large
consumers paid IS cents. The Mayor then changed
his mind, although he had been warned that the
company would close its refinery If the concession
was not made. He had a resolution passed by the
Street and Water Board resembling the resolution
restoring the old rates. After animated discus,
sion with x-Senator Edwards. the Mayor agreed
sign the resembling resolution until ne iau
had another conference. This agreement was
broken and the MAY signed the Iescinding reso
luton and boosted that the sugar irus' was p'"'
ing q game of bluff. A., oa-
When told yesterday of the action OF the sugar
Company, Mayor Hoos said: Jersey Ci'y o naS 30
