MAY TRY
PUBLIC LIGHTING.
Expert Shows that in Period of Tie
Years the City Can Save
100000

NEWARK, Oct. 1S.-To a special
committee of the Newark common
council Frederick o. Runyon, an cleo
trical engineer who has been engag-
ed by the city to study the question
of the cost and practicability of es-
tablishing a municipal lighting plant,
submitted yesterday an emphatic rec
ton, and showed that in ten years it
will result in a saving to the tax
payers of more than ST. 100000.
The committee probably will con-
cur in the recommendation of it's eX-
port but will conduct a public hear
ing on the subject next Monday night.
1t may also decide to secure the SER
vices of an electrical engineer of the
highest national reputation to verify
the estimates submitted by MI. Run
yon.
According to the report submitted
by the engineer, a plant capable Of
lighting 5000 are lamps of 1000
candle power with $50 watts energy
at the lamp, and also of lighting the
public buildings, can be Install
ed at a first cost of $S50,000. The
plan favored is an issue of thirty year
bonds to the amount required.
According to the estimates of the
engineer the city by installing a mu-
nicipai plant will save in 1907 $685.
900, and this saving will be increas-
ed annually until at the tenth year
it will not be less than $1,000,000.

OF HE'LL NOT
FLOWING ON SUNDAY"
Comment on Bishops Law at Pres
byterian SynOd-NeW York !
Called a Heather City.

ASBURY PARK, Oct. 1S.-When
Rev. DR.. John Dixon, addressing the
Presbyterian Synod of New Jersey
yesterday upon home missions, char
acterized New York as a heather and
not a Christian city, there was a fut-
ter on the floor. The statement was
the more surprising as DR.. Nixon is a
New York pastor. It elected no dis
cussion, however, and will appear no
doubt in the ste%nographic minutes OF
the synod as uncontradieted.
The committee on sabbath observ-
ance, in a lengthy report, referred to
the bishops bill. The Rev. Samuel
D. Price, of Camden, who readN the
report, said that some liquor las sold
"but the rivers of hell have not flow
ed on Sunday as in the past"
Sunday newspapers, Sunday games
and Sunday social functions were
scored as contrary to the true spirit
of Sunday observance. Continuing.
the report on Sabbath observance,
sets forth that public sentiment is at
variance with the Sunday laws in
New Jersey, as the laws are regularly
violated in every particular.
DR.. Dixon's caustic comment upon
u~nregenerate New York was brought
out in a discussion of home missions
which he said, was a problem that
could not wait for solution. He de-
scribed the conditions in New York,
the prevalence of vice and crime and
the discouragements to which mission
workers were subjected.
"Why," he shouted, New York Is
heather. not Christian"
The report of the special commit-S
tee on temperance Legislation merely
accepts the bishops law, as a make
shift. 1t says: at is manifestly APP
parent to your committee and to all
careful observers, that if we are to
obtain a wise, general local option
law in the near future it must come
through the dominant party in pow
er. There are no signs of change Of
present party control in the near fu-
ture, unless it is brought about by the
united liquor forces of the state in
trying to punish the republican party
for their expression of much strength
in favor of local option and for the
passage of the bishops bill"
