OF BOATS.
Staten Islanders Say the Municipal Ferries
Are Poorly Lighted.

Residents of Staten Island, partic-
ularly those who go to business in
Manhattan ad patronize the municip-
al ferry, r up in arms against the
poor lighting facilities on the new
boats. When the boats were first
put in service the lighting was so
great an improvement over that on
the old boats that it was commented
upon. AT that time the boats eel
really floating lighting plants. Every
nook and corner was as bright as day
and reading was a pleasure. Now
the boats are poorly lighted, less
than half of the electric lights being
turned On. 1t is impossible to read
a newspaper in some parts of the
boats.

troll both concerns, yesterday commenced

Mr.. EccIes, who is president of both
companies, they will continue right along
He said that they had secured a private
right of way through large portion OF
the canyon and for this reason they did
not need a franchise from the county for
the construction of the line. He said they
would complete their line to the mouth
Of the canyon and then keep on going.
Many people believe the move is sim

struct a line beyond the mouth of the
canyon. 1t is stated that Mr.. Bamberger
will operate his line TO the canyon be-
fore his line between Ogden and Salt
