CHOPPED DOWN TUNNEL FENCE.
Job Was Done by Order OF the Hoboken
Common Council.

The Common Council of Hobokon ordered
yesterday the demolition Of a board fence
surrounding an opening in the lower end
OF Ferry street, whore a corps Of engineers
in the employ Of the New York and Jersey
Railroad Company are making borings TO
ascertain the nature of the ground to be
encountered in the building of the Hoboken
end Of the tunnel loop.
Street Commissioner Barney Bayer had
given the tunnel company street opening
permit. The company gave the city officers
TO understand that they would formally
apply 10 the Common Council for authority
to eXcavate for the tunnel later on The
city fathers asserted that the permit simply
gnVe the tunnel employees the right to
make borings, not to obstruot the street
There IL no travel Mt that point
On Friday night the Councmen passed
resolution revoking the street opening
permit. Then they made arrangements
for "A "chopping bee" and authorized the
purchase Of lot of axes. At noon yester-
day gang OF sixty men in command OF
Deputy street Commissioner Mclaughlin,
sailed to the lower end of Ferry street.
Each man carried a new axe. Several
Councimen went along
When the fence was reached tho amateur
wooosmen started in The fence came
down and then they turned their attention
to a small frame shanty that did service as
toolhouse The building was soon re-
duced to kndling wood.
In the meanwhile Corporation Attorney
James +. Minturn had a telephone talk
with the law firm Of Collins 4 Corbin, coun-
sci for the tunnel company He was as
sured by the lawyers that the tunnel COM
pany had been led to believe that it had
proceeded regularly on the strength OF
Mr., Bayer's permit, Mr.. Minturn sent
hurry order to the fence choppers to call
a halt, and the word came back that it was
too late as the Job had been finished
Some Of the men employed by the tunnel
company began later TO repair the damage.
Policeman Guinan arrested John +. Flana-
gan, master mechanic for bossnG the Job.
Flanagan, the police say. couldn't under
stand why the fence shouldn't bo rebuilt.
and remarked that it was going up, permit
or no permit He was taken to police
headquarters and released in $3.50 hail.
The work was eventually stopped and

1t ia worth while to consider whether

A departure involving great national

the principle is fixed il is surely absurd
to ask that the details be submitted to the

The absurdity is intensified when we re-
member that however good Judge Of

a very bad Judge of the means OF enforcing

edge
