Vice Chancellor Stevenson
Says the GreenvilIe Smells
Must Stop.

In the Court of Chancery this morning
Vice Chancellor Stevenson granted an in
junction restraining the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company and its employees
from using as filling-in purposes at Its
vast improvement off the Greenville shore
any material which emits foul and un-
wholesome odor. He also issued an order
compelling the company to forthwith
abate any nuisance which may now exist
on account CT any material which the
company may heretofore have used.
Mungo j. Currie as counsel for himself
and other members of his family who live
on the shore almost directly behind the
dumps, filed a bill in the Court of Chan
Gerry claiming that the Railroad Cona-
pany was using material in filling in the
bay flats which emitted foul and Offer
sive odor which threatened the health OF
the residents along the shore.
The Railroad Company, through its
counsel, James B. Vredenburgh. filed an
answer in which it set up the claim that
the material complained of was street
sweepings from New York City. from
which the garbage had been separated,
and that as soon as it was shown to the
contractors that the material produced
the order complained of they stopped the
work

TROLLEY co. DEFEATED.
Must Strengthen B ergen Turn
pike Bridge Over the
West Shore.

Vice Chancellor Pitney this morning de-
cided against the Jersey City. Hoboken
and Paterson Railroad Company in the
suit of the West Shore Railroad company
to restrain the Trolley Company from
laying tracks on the bridge oven the
West Shores tracks at New Durham.
The Bergen Turnpike at New Durham
crosses the tracks of the West Shore Rail-
road at New Durham, on a bridge twenty
feet high. The turnpike company agreed
to allow the national company on con-
dition that it would build, a bridge over
the road and pay the company Sa,5es. A
formal contract was entered inte by the
parties which set forth the terms of the
agreement and describing the nature OF
the bridge to be built. Among other
things it was stipulated that the railroad
company should keep the bridge in good
order. The Jersey City, Hoboken and
Paterson Railroad Company bought the
turnpike and proposed to Install railroad
tracks on this bridge for a trolley line.
The West Shore Railroad Company filed
a bill for an injunction to restrain the
Turnpike Company from laying the
tracks on the ground that although the
bridge was strong enough for ordinary
traffic it could not support trolley cars.
In this opinion the Vice Chancellor said =
''G'ne real question in this case is which
of the parties shall incur the expense of
rebuilding the bridge.
There is nothing to show that at the
time the bridge was built it was in con-
temptation of either of the parties that
it was to be used for anything else than
the ordinary travel over a turnpike. It
was designed and adopted for that pur-
pose and was accepted by the Turnpike
Company as sufficiently strong.
"Under these circumstances it seems to
me that the burden of increasing its
strength is cast upon the Turnpike Com
pany.
Il think the Injunction should go.s

HACKENSACK, July 8. 19O1.-Tnere is
trouble in the Oritani Field Club Of Hack
ensack. over the conduct of a. few of its
members at a ball in the clubhouse on
July 4. Half a dozen members not only
attended the ball sttired in shirt waists,
but .Eome went SO far as to roll up Their
sleeves. and one young man, it is said,
discarded his collar on account of the
heat.
The Entertainment Committee, it is
said, has lodged a complaint with the
Beard of Governors, and letters will be
sent to the offending members requesting
them to act more in accordance with the
rules of propriety at future social affairs
of the club. The protest is not against
the shirt waists themselves. but against
the rolling up Of sleeves.

People who find inspiration in beautiful
jewels ought to see the exquisite gem in
the form of a marquise ring made by
Jeweler Barrick, of this borough. which
was specially ordered by lady customer,
says the Brooklyn "Citizen." 1t is prob
ably one of the largest rings ever made.
There are eighty-one white diamonds in
it, the miadle one weighing one karat.
The crest is shaped something like a
snowshoe. two inches and a half long and
one inch wide, and the ring entire weighs
fifteen karats. At one time Fannie Daven-
port possessed a ring Of a similar design.
but not quite SO large, and now eaid to
be the property of Blanche Walsh, and
Lillian Russell Is the owner of another of
like character. Before the work was be-

laid out in wax, with a view to symmetry
and effect. small diamond is placed at
each end Of the shank, that is the part
Of the ring which the gem is attached.
The maker of the ring refused to divulgel

BOOTHS SUE MonTcLAIR
They Prefer Brook to Lake in
Their Garden.
Especial to 1.-THE Jersey City News."l

Especial to ''The Jersey City News."l
MONTCLAIR, July s, 1901-Because of
the filling in of an old brook in the rear
of their residence at No. II Claremont
avenue, Commander and Mrs. Ballington
Booth, of the Volunteers of America, in
tend to bring suit for heavy damages
against the town of Montclair The
amount which tn Booths, it is said, will
demand, is $4,000. 1t was said in Mont
clair last night that the town authorities,
who have ignored petitions and protests
on the subject for a year are now plan
ming to put stop to legal proceedings by
devising some plan for relieving the
Booths of the floods of water that wash
their back yard whenever it rains.
In the damage suit the Town Council
of Montclair and D. V. Harrison will be
made co-defendants Mr. Harrison is
held responsible for laying an eight-inclr
pipe to carry away the storm water,
which formerly flowed through an open
culvert across Vincent place, in the rear
of the Booth residence, and the Council
is asked to pay damages for having all
lowed Mr.. Harrison to close the culvert,
and later accepting the street with the
small drain pipe laid therein.
The Booths. it is asserted. have to navi-
gate their garden on a raft in wet
weather, because of the closing of the cul-
vert; the earth in some parts of the yard
has sunk two or three feet, and their eel
lar and stable are flooded by the backing
up of the water 1t is also alleged that
the flooding of the place is menace to
the health of the family.
A meeting of the Town Council is.to be
held this week, at which the health de-
partment officials and town engineer will
suggest some plan for diverting the water
from the Booth cellar and garden, with a
view to heading off the trial of the dam
age suit
