PROPERTY OWNERS HOLD

President McCarter Explained that

Consents.

1t is said chat the proposed extension
of the,trolley between Plainfield and
Metucllen is being delayed by the un
Willingness of few property owners
along the lire TO give their consent
to have the trolley pass their homes.
There are q number of spirited citi-
zens who are working Inrd for this
extension, in fact MIR. Beckstein, one
Of the largest property owners along
the line, living on Park avenue, Plain
field, called on President McCarter,
of the Public Service Corporation,
this week, to see wllnt progress hnd
been male concerning the extension.
Mr.. McCarter assured Mr. Beck
stein that just as soon rs the consents
are secured, the company will take
steps toward building tho line. The
head of the company int imnted that a
little difficulty Is being met with re-
gartliDR the number of feet in width
desired. Some of the property owners
do not want to give the com pany as
much of a right of-way MS the i'm
provement should have.
IT is the desire of tho Public Service
Corporation to lay double track
This would give an excellent service
and would do away with unnecessary
delays that are now feature of the
single trnck lines. The Arlington
avenue line is a good example of this
kind of service. AS arranged it is
impossible for the company to givo
the public,a quick satisfactory service,
and if the Metuchen line is built the
company wants to obviate this trouble,
il possible.
All the necessary preliminary work
hns been done on the extension, such
as making surveys and preparing the
specifications and grades, and nothing
now remains to be done except to get
the consents and builu the line. Con-
sidering that the extension will cost
many thousands of dollars, the com
pany believes that The property
owners should be willing 10 give the
required number of feet for the lay
ing of the tracks.

whose mothers had not allowed them to
answer the alarm last night, and who
we're at the ruins for the first time.

liked by the people OF Princes Bay
and soon was caller at many homes.
He was always very quiet and 1t was

Last April, Miss Amanda Nance,
one of the most pro minent young
ladies of Princes Bay, and Mcintyre
were quietly married. and the matter
was kept quiet until last week. Then
when it began to get whispered about,

a wife and child living in Brooklyn.

matter aud tomorrow Mcintyre will
be arraigned in court in Brooklyn.

to hold the little jumper which was
handed over to tho Washingtons when
the Linoolns, then the only company,

did active service. These old times
were discussed last night and old re-
minisoenoes were brought up. Having
built part of the house themselves, it
was but natural that they wantei to
meet there onco more while the struo-
ture was still in active service.
The charter members had as their
guests the Board of Aldermen and
some. friends. About .: 80 O'Clock tn @
clambake was opened and the old

SLAUGHTER OF
DEER BY WOLVES

Manitowoc, Wis, Jan. 14.-Nye Jor.
don of the South Arm Lumber com
pany of Milwaukee, who came here di'
rect from the northern woods, says
that the slaughter of deer by wolves is
appalling. The snow is of great depth
and this makes it particularly easy for
the wolves to kin the deer, which they
do apparently out of sheer wantoness.
Many carcasses are left untouched.
Mr.. JordOn claims that the chase is
made in packs and in a sort of relay
fashion. The animals, four or five in
number, will start on a fresh trail in
single file, and when the leader be-
comes exhausted, he will step aside
and let the next following, lead. When
he tires, in turn, the next will break
trail, and so on until the deer is
caught, when a howl will bring the en-
tire pack TO the slaughter.

er's hesitation and the latter replied
that il was because he was thinking
how thankful we should be that we
have not a president who would use to
any nation such language as the sena'
tor from South Carolina lad used.
Senator SpOOner insisted the president
was right in the contention that Co
IOmbia's failure To Tatify the canal
treaty was a breach or the spirit of the
treaty of 1876, because New Granada
had sought that treaty in her own pro
lection. He contended the president
had neither interviewed nor committed
an act of war against the Republic Of
Colombia. He declared the honor and
interest of the United States required
that a president should do just what
Theodore Roosevelt had done and that
the president had acted within the
constitution and law in all he had done
i'm Panama. THE attack on the presi-
dent" Senator SpOoner went on, lis so
virulent and inexcusable that no rea-
sonable explanation can BE made of II
except that of partisanship OF the
worst kind" He invited the opposition
to test the question by an early vote
and closed with a defense of the presi-
dent as "a brave. patriotiS, and frank
man. who tried TO DO what the law je-
manded." The discussion win be re-
sumed today.
