\. and Nj. College Insurance.

A question which was not decided
by the Council was who shall pay the
insurance on the A. and M. College
buildings. The insurance has hereto
fore been paid by the State Depart
ment of Agriculture, but there was a
Jaw peculiarly written. adopted by the
last General Assembly. which requires
the institution having the buildings in
charge to pay the insurance which is
$500 per year. The Agricultural De-
partment holds that the College must
pay the insurance, while the College
says that the Agricultural Depart
nent have control of the buildings and
elects the officers and teachers of the
College, and should pay the insur-
ance.
The Council CT State ms unable to
solve the problem without enlighten-
ment. and has notified Commissioner
Of Agriculture S. l.. Patterson and
President George II. Winston to APP
pear before the Council next Monday
and present their respective sides of
the question as to which shall pay the
insurance on y. and NJ. College.

ON THE CANADA BORDER.
Some Name and Vermont Boundary
Marks ObHteruted.
[From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, Nov. 5-Important recommended
tions regarding a clearer demarhaton Of the
boundary line between Canada ard the States
of Vermont and Maine Will be made 10 the gov
ernments of Canada and the United States by
the surveyors charged with inspecting this line
last summer The monuments marking this
boundary found in many cases to have
fallen down, and some had been removed. The
damage was so great in this respect that new
style of boundary marks to take the place of
the present cast iron monuments will probably
be recommended. Some of the surveyors are in
favor of building stone monuments along the
Maine and Vermont borders similar to those
built by the State of New-York and Canada
three years ago The New-York boundary mon
uments solidly planted on stone pedestals
built into the ground to depth below the frost
line. They six feet in height. The need of
marking the Maine and Vermont border equally
clearly will be urged on the ground that the bor-
der is rapidly being settled and that unless the
line is made distinct the troubles already had
with smugglers and Zine houses built across
the boundary line with view TO defying the
law will increase. All thoroughfares and rail-
road crossings, it will be recommended, shall
be clearly emted. A lawsuit for damages
brought in the case of a man killed at a rail-
road CLOSING at the boundary line of Vermont
when 1t was impossible to determine in which
territory the accident happened is one of the
instances cited by those interested on the boun-
dary line question for the need OF better mark
ings In the case of factory built on the Ner-
mont border the obscure markings have for
long time made it difficult to determine whether
the factory was violating the customs law by
operating in both countries at once. The TWO
governments have also had complaints from GUS
toms officers as to the difhculty OF arrestins
smugglerS The American surveyors who nave
heen enga ered on the work for this government
the last summer have returned home after COM
pleting their work and are now preparing re-
ports which will present array of facts to
show that the present marking of the boundary
line is most unsatisfactory.

DISORDER ON FERRIES.
DisgracefuI Scenes Enacted ON Nez0
Staten Island Boats.

The people of Staten Island welcomed the new
municipal ferry system not only because of the
prospect of faster time up and down the bay be-
tween ST. George and the Battery, but also be-
cause they hoped and believed that better order
would be preserved on the steamers when the
city was in charge. In this they have been
sadly disappointed, according to the number of
complaints which have reached The Tribune
from residents of the southern borough.
ALLOW me to call attention to the disgraceful
rowdyism which is allowed to go on freely on
Sunday evenings on the Staten Island ferry
writes one indignant citizen. Every boat COM
ing to and going from the Battery carries a
largo number of drunken buns, who lurch
about bowling and knocking into people. 1t
seems as though now that the new boats are in
commission and operated by the municipality.
a special effort might be made TO ln1orce at
least the laws of decency.

found that the writer quoted in the foregoing
