explosion neighborhood had become highly
indignant. They assert that a strong odor
OF gasolene comes from the sewers, and
they are inclined to think that the illumi-
mating gas which leaks into them is
helped out by gasolene which flows into tho
sewers from the many garages along the
line of Broadway, west of the district, and
using its ewers for drainage.
Borough President Ahearn said last night
that he had had the gas explosions in sewers
under confederation for several weeks.
Men had been hired, he said, from the labo-
ratories of f. j. Lederle, former Health
Commissioner, to investigate the cause OF
the trouble. Mr.. Loomis, chief engineer Of
the Department Of Sewers, Mr.. Ahearn said.
was also assisting in the investigation, and
the Consolidated Gas Company has been
looking into the trouble.
President Ahearn sus poets the garages.
He believes that the oils and gasolene
which they run into the sewers are making
the trouble n says that if this ia proved
an ordinance will be passed by the Board
OF Aldermen prohibiting the discharge of
the waste from the garages into the sewers.

\. ". CENTRAL,SF FREE CITY WATER
City to Sue for 10 Years Back Rates-lS
Hydrants on Private Property.

Water Commissioner Ellison intends to
sue the New York Central Railroad Com
pany for the value Of water the company
has used in the last twenty years without
paying the city for it. The company owns
and occupies the railroad yards between
Fifty-ninth and Seventeen streets or both
sides Of Twelfth avenue. Within that area,
according to a report prepared by two Of
Mr.. Ellison's inspectors named Harmon and
Cooke, there are fifteen hydrants which have
been in use fully twenty years and have
never been metered. In their reports the
inspectors relate that tugs were watered
from the hydrants and hydrants were al
lowed to run all night to prevent freezing.
1t is computed that at a moderate esti-
mate the value OF the water taken by the
company would be at least 5000 a year,
while il the waste is included the amount
would be fully $4,000, so that the claim that
Mr.. Ellison will make agaist the company
will be between $1Oo,o 900 and $4,000.
1T is the most glazing case OF misuse Of
the city's water this department has ever
discovered" was the comment the Com
missioner made after the reading Of the
report of the inspectors.

work, did not observe the machine until it
was too late. Both were knocked down,
and as they fell in a shallow hole which
they had made in the pavement the ma
chine passed over them until they were
struck by the low hanging parts Of the
mechanism. At the same time the han

York Republican county committee, and
Senator Alfred r. Page. the vice-president
of the county committee, lave completed

ment plans for Kings and Erie counties.
He expects the apportionment bill will be
