Matters Of Public Interest Came up at
the Meeting Last Nighs-To Assess
for the State Street Sewer.

Who has jurisdiction over the city
streets is a matter which seems to
give the aldermen much concern at
present. The questions seems to have
arisen out of the recent complications
over moving the building at SO Smith
street. The matter was brought up
by the Mayors communication in
which he stated that his order to the
contractor had been obeyed at the
latter's convenience. Mr.. Stacey said
he thought he had the power, as
chairman of tho street committee.
Mr.. loft thought it was the Street
Commissioner duty. No one seemed
to know and the matter was left with
the committee of the whole to get up
an ordinance of some kind covering
the whole building question.
Other matters which came up were
remonstrance by Julia Peck against
tho paving of Smith street; Washing
ton Hose Company asked for a new
combination wagon, one horse and a
stable; Lincoln Hose Company en-
dorsed Louis II. VanHorn for driver
to steamer; the city attorney was
directed to make appli cation for ap-

Practical Man Writes to the
Evening News on the
Subject.
WHERE ECONOMY is
Shows by the Figures in the Annual Report
of the City that the Beam Pump is The
Greatest Fuel Saver and Most Economi-
cal for Pumping Purpose to be Had
Will Need Another Pump In Short Time.

The following valuable communica-
tion has been left at this office for
pulication. 1t was written by a
practical man who has had much ex-
perience with engines and knows
whereof he speaks:
editor Evening News:
"The financial report of the city
shows some very interesting data.
Among others l note the performance
of the pumps at Runyon. The Snow
pu mp shows record of 244 gallons of
water for one pound of coal consumed
the Lorentz pump shows 3OS gallons
of water for each pound of coal con-
sumed, while the Blake pump, at the
Eaglesw ood plant, makes showing
of 152 gallons per pound of coal con-
sumed.
"As the two-foot main is nearly
completed, the next item in order will
be, no doubt, additional pumping
capacity. This Will mean at least q
six million gallon capacity pump.
Now, the above data will give oui
water commissioners very good op
portunity to see the relative value O.
the three pumps. II. the coal consumed
by the Snow pump had been uset
with the engine connected with th'
Lorentz type of pump there woult
have been an additional 222. 500, 0O'
gallons more water pumped with th'
same fuel, or saving of over S6'
tons of coal.
"The above report conf rms villa
has repeatedly been shown by statis
ii cs that the beam engine has 25 PEI
cent. less friction than any other typ'
of engine and when the same is uset
expansively by either single duple
compound, or triple cylinders a say
ing of at least from twenty five tt
thirty per cent. of the fuel consumed
it will be up to you in trying how
much you save the city not to try any
penny wise and pound foolish
schemes.

First Move Of the East Jersey
Traction COmpany-TO Con-
meet with [lizahethpOrt.
THE FRANCHISE HELD.
Now Has Right of Wav Through Railway
and Linden-AppIiCation to Elizabeth
Council for Franchise on More Streets
-Ston to Have Hearing Before the
Woodbridge Township Committee.

The merging Of the Raritan Trac-
tion Company and the Perth Amboy
Railroad Company into the one COM
pany known as the East Jersey Trac-
tion Company, as told exclusively in
the Evening News, yesterday, has a
greater meaning than it appears on
the surface. Frank Bergen, tho pre-
sident Of the new concern and who is
general counsel for the Public Ser.
vice Corporation, said yesterday that
among the changes which will i'm
mediately be considered under the
consolidation is the construction OF
line from Perth Amboy to Elizabeth
port, by way of Carteret. This would
make possible ii Q last connecting link
between Newark ana Perth Amboy.
The East Jersey Company had never
built any road, but simply had two
franchises under which roads might
, be built. One gave the right to con
struct street railway through the
city of Railway, and the other to
build one in the borough of Linden
The Public Service Corporation hal
now an application before the Com
mon Council of Elizabeth, asking fol
the right to extend its present track
there, from the terminus of the Soutl
Broad street line, at Summer street
over Bayway and the Essex and Mid
dlesex turnpike to the Linden line
and If it secures this it will be posi-
BILE to get through to Perth Amboy by
another route. Mr.. Bergen said thai
the new company formed by consolid
alton would probably take up the
matter of extending the street rail
road from Elizabeth to Railway.

Smith street about which have heard
no complaint, but which has been
described to me by some rs frame
buiIdipg. by others as prick struc-
ture.
Property owners on Jefferson street,
west OF New Brunswick avenue, have
asked me to endeavor to have the
limits within which wooden. structures
are forbidden, extended to that street.
Do you not deem it advisable al
this time to supplement the ordinance
forbidding modern buildings in sucl
manner as shall widen the area
wherein they should not be!permitted
and also to prescribe definitely what
constitutes a modern building?
Frame struc lures, of so little value
that they are either given away OF
sold for nominal amounts are permitted

Tee Appeared Before the
Board Of Estimate.

to Recommend First Ward Site and
Declare ii is Now up to the Board Of

The Board of Estimate mot last
night and listen ed to the special COM
mittee appointed by the Chamber of
Commerce to urge the erection of
school No In the first ward, south
of Gordon street. instead of on the

back to the Board of Education for
further consideration.
The members of the committee who
were present were DR.. +. W. Kitchel,
E. W Barnes, o. s. button and e.
L. Brown. When invited to speak,
DR.. Kitchel addressed the board. He
said that the erection of a twelve
room building in King street, would
leave but nine feet on each side for
playground. The system of courts,
the doctor stated, would accommo-
date but 400 children, while the capa-
city of the school is to be eco. DR..
Kitchel produced a chart showing
the lay of the land in King street, in
connection with the erection of the
new school. He also stated that, If
school No. was placed in King
street, there would be over 1,70o
school children within a radius of
100 yards. Therb are 677 children in
school No. 1, 450 in the High School.
and 600 is the proposed cenacity Of

erection of the new building.
The other members of the committees
also spoke. Mr.. Brown, speaking
from practical standpoint, said that.
even if school No is erected in
King street, a new school will be
needed south of Gordon street before
many years have passed. Taking this
into consideration he asked if it
Il would not be more economical to buy
