FENCING IN.
New Brunswick Finds Herself
Almost Without Facilities TO
Handle River Traffic.

Specidi to the EVENING NEWS
NEW BRUNSWICK, Apr. 3.-The
PENNSYLVANIA railroad is taking extra
%precaution in an effort to prevent any
one from ever using their dock below
the outlet lock and along the Raritan
river without becoming trespassers
by so doing. They have had sixteen
posrs erected along the river front so
that all entrance TO the dock is shut
off and the city has a street with a
dead end.
The Middlesex Transportation
Company. last winter. made several
landings at this dock which was
thought to belong TO the city and the
CITY went so far as TO make out a
lease for the purpose of having it
signed by the transportation COM
pany.
Al that time the Pennsylvania rail
dock and held that they had title to
four feet of land along the river front
at the end of Voorhees, street, which
runs AZ right angles to Burnett street.
This ended the negotiations with the
city for the lease of the property TO
the transportation company and the
dock was not used thereafter by the
company running the steamship line
10 New York.
The railroad company has now had
a row of posts erected our feet from
the rivers edge. completely shutting
off the end of the street from the
dock. Any one throwing out a gang
plank there upon the top of the posts
or upon the dock will be held for
trespassing by the railroad company.

commissioners Report on Hamlet
Wreck,

baslng Its announcement on find
lngs as a preventative in further rail-
o wrecks, the North Carolina cor
poratlon commission rendered a decis-
ION of the wreck of two trains last
Sunday evening on the Seaboard Air
LINE Railway near Hamlet. This is
an endorsement Of the block system
and recommends such installation. The
commission ordered that a report Of
OF Its findings be mailed to President
Walters, OF the railroad company.
h report sets forth those who were
examined as persons having know
ledge Of the facts concerning the
wreck. There is also set forth in this
report these several facts:
This wreck was caused bv the
failure Of agents Of the railroad COM
pany to observe and obey the rules
and regulations Of the company gov
ernlng tie movement of trains. It
would serve no useful purpose for the
corporation commission to find which
agents are guilty Of negligence in this
matter, as such finding would not be
binding or conclusive upon any one
and might be prejudicial in other in
vestigations. The purpose of our in
v~estigatioD, as all understand it, is
that the corporation commission
might take such measures within its
powers as to prevent the recurrence
Of such accidents. We are satisfied
that the wreck would not have oc-
Cured had the block system been in
operation on the portion of the road
where it occurred. The operator at
Rockingham and the operator at
Hamlet, only six miles apart, per-
mitted trains to leave these places at
about the same instant OF time, meet
ing each other, and neither knew
that this had been done until the
trains were beyond their control. This
could not have happened under the
block system. Eight passenger and
freight trains, besides the special
trains daily, go over the Seaboard Air
Lines side-track between Hamlet and
Monroe. We have no power to order
the block system of signals to be put
in operation on this section Of the
road, but we do most earnestly rec
ommend that the Seaboard Air Line
Railway install the block system ser
vice between Hamlet and Monroe as
soon as practicable.'

DELICATE FABRICS RENEWED.

To make delicate fabrics look like
new: Boil one cupful of rice in three
quarts of water; drain and use water
for starch. Wet the cloths in it,
wiring, roll in dry cloth for an hour
or two, then iron. (The rice
handy for dinner.) Corn starch is
better than laundry starch for stiff
fleming lace curtains or other laces.
Starch of all kinds should become
lukewarm before using. Hot starch
turns dainty colors dark and ruins
their beauty. Dissolve two ounces of
powdered gum arabic in a quart OF
boiling water, strain, and keep bot
tied. A little added to starch for
dresses and skirts (white u colored)
gives an appearance of newness, and
they will keep stiff and clean longer
than when starched with ordinary
clear starch.
