FOR INTERSTATE BRIDGE
Commission Expects to Have Defi-
mite Plans for the Legislature.

4
NEW YORK, July 6.4Through
the absence from the city of most of
the members of the New York and
New Jersey Interstate Bridge Com
mission, there was no meeting yes
terday. Secretary McDougall Hawkes.
said, however, that the commission
expects to have some definite plans
and estimate of cost prepared .for
presentation to the legislatures of
both states when they convene in jan
uary.
He said that, contrary to some pub
lished statements; the commission
has not agreed even tentatively upon
sites for termini on either side of the
Hudson river. The commission was
entirely open minded and was solicit
ing suggestions from all sources in
both states. The D., l. & w. railroad
has advocated a New York terminal
in the vicinity of Washington square.
The engineers of the Erie and Jersey
Central roads are studying the ques-
ton. The West Shore and the Lee
high Valley have stated that they do
not think they would be able to use
the bridge. The Public Service Cor
p~oration of New Jersey, which hopes
to enter New York over the bridge, is
preparing definite suggestions. j
The next regular meeting of the
commission will probably be held on
Thursday next.

SUMMER SEASON
AT ASBURY PARK.

ASBURY PARK, July 6:-The
summer city took on a delightful
calm yesterday, and the routine of
beach pastimes vas resumed by the
stay over crowd with apparent zest.
Bathing, however, was carried on un-
der di~scouraging conditions. A heavy
surf prevailed in the morning and
the plunge contingent was visibly
diminished.
The death of former Mayor Frank
l.. Ten Brock has cast a gloom over
the city. Flags are at half mast and
the city buildings are draped with
crepe. Public funeral services will
be held at the West End Hotel Sat
urday. They will be attended by the
mayor and council and all the public
officials of the city. The former may
or's hotel, the West End, will be
managed by Mrs. Ten Brock, assist
ed by her son-in-law, Mr.. Richard
son, upon whom much of the detail
of the business devolved during Mr..
Ten Broeck's long illness. A special
meeting of the city council al held
last night, at which a committee was
appointed to draft appropriate reso-
lutions.
Numerous complaints are heard on
the beach growing out of the hidden
dangers of the surf. Submerged and
broken off bathing poles protrude at
Third avenue, resulting Wednesday
in a serious injury to Mr.. T. H. Sterl-
ing, a patron of Sunset Hall. While
swimming in the surf, he was sud
denly carried by the current against
a submerged pole. His knee was
painfully lacerated and he Is now I'M
der the care of a physician.
Two other accidents of a similar
nature in a few days have directed
attention to these hidden perils and
the Beach Commissioners have been
petitioned to order a thorough exam
ination of the bathing grounds from
Asbury to Eighth avenue.

CORPORATION TAXES.
Schedule Showing Returns from
Miscellaneous Concerns.

TRENTON, July 6.+Secretary Ma
guire, of the state board of assessors,
filed with the state comptroller yes
terday a supplementary schedule
ohowing the taxes levied against mis-
cellaneous corporations for the cur
rent yea The schedule includes ST.
companies, the tax on which amounts
to $15S,096. The first schedule, filed
early in June, includes 1868 corpor-
ations, on which the tax was $2,429,-
COZ.
Other schedules will be filed from
time to time as returns are made.
Last year the total number of mis-
cellaneous corporations taxed was L.
065, and it is expected that this year
the number will reach 1900.
1t is, however, impossible to make
a reasonably safe prediction as to the
comparative amounts of the tax lev
les, which willnot necessarily be pro-
p%ortionate to increase in the number
of companies.

WAS WARMEST WEEK.

The week ending 8 am. July Q.
1906, was the warmest thus far for
the current season. The average tenn
perature for the state, rs degrees,
vas 6 degrees higher than the aver
age for the preceding week, and the
temperature departures at individual
stations ranged from 4 to 6 degrees
above the normal, according to the
bulletin of the state weather service.
At the beginning Of the week the tenn
p%erature was about normal, the first
few nights being moderately cool for
the season, while the day tempera-
lures were slightly above so degrees
in most sections. With the advance
of the week the temperature became
decidedly higher--the nights we're
warm and oppressive, the maximum
temperatures on Thursday rose to
about 80 degrees, and on Friday and
5HeHFe<F 3 .stsfm' wave attained its
height, with the temperature reg1sD
tering above 80 degrees over much
the greater part of the state. The
sea coast districts did not escape the
excessive heat, the temperature at AS
bury Park on Saturday, June 80, reg
istering "a degrees, and at Atlantic
City 90 degrees. The latter temper
allure was not only the highest re-
ported in the state, but was the high
est yet recorded at Atlantic City for
the month of June for a period of 81
years. Showers and thunderstorms
that occurred on Friday in numerous
distTcts failed to reduce the temper
ATTIRE, except temporarily, but on
Sunday the winds shifted from west
erly to northerly and easterly quar-
ters and lower maximum tempera-
lures, ranging from so to SO degrees,
resulted. The week closed with fair
and cooler weather prevailing. y
The rainfall for the week was, as
a rule, deficient and irregularly dis
tributed.

COMPANY SIZE LIMITED.
BY THE MILITARY BOARD.

TRENTON, July 6.-The state mil
'itary board met yesterday at noon
and upon its recommendation an ex-
ecutive order was issued fixing the
maximum strength of any
in the national guard at 81 men. con
sisting of three commissioned Off
GERS and not more than SO enlisted
men. This was the maximum under
the old law, but the next act passed
to conform with the Dick law fixes
a maximum of 104 and a minimum of
so. Some feared that some enter
prising commander might take adj
vantage of the new law to swell his
command to such proportions as
would lead to the serious embarrass-
ment of the, financial department of
the guard, which is not provided with
funds sufficient to care for any con-
siderably greater number of men
than are now In the organizations.
Governor Stokes had some doubt
as to his right under the new law to
issue an order, but upon receiving the
report of today's meeting, at which
the subject was thoroughly discussed,
he directed that the order issue imme-
diately. The danger of over-enlist-
ment is propably remote, as few if
any of the companies now' have a
force exceeding 65 men.
Those present at the meeting yes
terday were Adjutant General H. He
Der B%reintnall, Quartermaster Gen
eral c. Edward Murray, Brigadier
General Edward A. Campbell, Briga-
der General Quincy ON. Gilmore,
Colonel Henry w. Freeman, Colonel
Dennis F. Collins, Colonel John A.

Albert De Unger, commander second
battalion naval reserves. This was
the first meeting since the new mill
tary law went into effect. Major
General Wansef was detained at his
home and was unable to preside over
the meeting. General Campbell pre-
sided.

ACAINIS BUYER IN
CHASE OF A GIFT
Hundreds Came to Ameri-
Gus Tuesday.
PURCHASING IS LONG DELAYED
Americus Merchants Say Rush Has
Not Been Great Thus Far-Next
Few Days Proceeding Xmas Will
Be Busy Ones.

With the return of the golden sun
beams yesterday the holiday buyer, the
locker and the come hacker who can
not choose in the bewildering array of
gifts, all trooped merrily to the task of
again buying gifts, and the day was
enc of the best of the season, the mer-
chants said last night,
But there will be four other very
busy ones in Americas this week, to
say nothing of the final football STAN
pede next Tuesday.
4 large part of those who were out
yesterday were from the country and
nearby towns, but there were many
city people out making purchases also,
and altogether there were many people
on the streets all day, and until good
deal later hour than usual last night.
But the crowds that were seen on the
streets yesterday were nothing to what
will be seen during the next four or
five days.
Many of those who can do so will
hhOCh Ol1 41O1LE C1O1I WOIh tIIS WO0h,
and will not do much if any more labor
until after the holidays. These will
take the money that they have been
saving for this purposes and do their
Christmas trading.
While the weather is pleasant, hun
dreds are seen on the streets and in the
stores, making preparations for next
week S festivities. Doubtless, the streets
today will show the eagerness of the
people to make purchases and avoid
the jam so annoying the day before
Christmas.
And the postoff1ce force-verily this
is no holiday for them. Ifyou are going
to send gifts this way, get them into
the office at once, or before the final rush
begins.
1t must be taken into consideration
that there is no dependence to be put
on railroad schedules, and although the
postoffice is doing everything possible
to facilitate the carrying Of the mails,
they have no power to compel prompt
schedules or the arrival of the trains
on time.
SO get busy today, finish your pur-
chases, and be happy-if possible
