SAYS NEWARK STOLE 4 STREET.
south Orange Orders NeiEhbor 60 Keep on
or Holland Avenue.

SOUTH ORANGE, N. j.. July ie.-Accord-
ing to the village maps the city of Newark
has stolen" a street belonging to the village
OF South Orange, and the authorities are
preparing to recover the tho~roughfare.
The discovery has been made through
a communication from Michael II. Murray
Of Newark. who recently built a house at
South Orange avenue and Holland road.
The latter named street forms the boundary
line between South Orange and Newark.
Mr.. Murray has asked TO have a street
lamp placed opposite his home and wants
to know who has jurisdiction. He de-
clares that the Newark Board of Works
recently changed the name of the street
10 -Montrose street" and put up a sign with
that name on il.
This set the village officials to consulting
maps. and now IL has been discovered
that Mr.. Murray's street is in South Orange
and that Newark has no right to change
the name. As a result Of this Village Clerk
Michael A. Fitzsimmons has been instructed
to notify Newark to take down the sign
and keep off,"
The borough of vailsburg, which
formerly stood between South Orange
and Newark, was annexed to Newark
nearly three years ago, and at hat time
Newark had to change the names of twenty
six streets in Vailsburg. because they
were similar in name TO as many streets
in Newark. Holland avenue being close
TO the line, and there being "A street of that
name in Newark. the change was made
in that case. The sentiment for snnexa-
ton OF South Orange to Newark is not
stronglin South Orange.
Mr.. Murray probably will get his lamp.

Eighty-seoond street and Twelfth avenue.
Dyker Heights. Brooklyn.
Olga left home with her sister Ella. who
is z years old, about 4;30 o'clock in the after
noon TO pick berries along the edge Of the
little woods that runs from Seventy-ninth
to Eightieth streets between Eleventh and
Twelfth avenues. The little girls often
went there with a basket to get enough
berries for their fathers dinner, and the
mother didn't object yesterday when they
told her that they we're going to get another
surprise for papa" The girls never ven-
tured far into the woods. and most OF the
time they were in plain sight from the street.
They had been gone from the Schramek
house yesterday about an hour when Ella
rushed into the yard. hatless and weeping.
"Oh, mamma, mamma" she cried. "a
man has run away with Olga"
Mrs. Schramek didn't wait TO hear any
more. Picking up a club that lay in the
yard she ran down Twelfth avenue with
her little daughter following. Mrs
Schramek met Frank Carlson, a neighbor.
and a word from the frightened mother
sent him running in the direction pointed
out by Fila.
About 200 feet back in the woods, among
some thick bushes. he found Olga lying:
Her clothes were torn and she vas only half

hunt for the assailant and he and other
neighbors secured the woods.

tended by n doctor from 1.-The Norwegian
Hospital. She was able later to give the

with her sister near Eightieth street when a
man OF medium height. with dark hair
and n dark mustache. rushed In from the
street and picking her up in his arms hur-
ried into the bushes. She screamed just
once. and then he clapped his hand over
her mouth. In the bushes was another
man. who had apparently been waiting.
This one held his hand over her mouth
while the man who had captured her com-
mitted the assault. Then both OF them
ran away in the woods.
Olga couldn't give a description of the
man who held her. The one who carried
her into the woods, she said, WIS an Ameri-
can. He spoke 10 her and told her not 10
he frightened. He had light brown eyes
and was apparently about 20 years old.
He wore a soft black hat and had nc tie or
collar.

Two Decisions as to shipment Of Goods,

WASHINGTON, July le.-The Interstate
Commerce Commission handed down to-day
two decisions in which important rules OF
Interstate law are laid down.
One Of them was that Of F. l.. Rogers a CO..
against the Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way Company, in which il was held that
the carrier cannot legally place an embargo
on shipments destined for the complainant
at the Twenty-third and Arch street termi-
nal. Philadelphia. The commission admits
that there are cases when. in time of un-
usual congestion. an embargo or one COM
modify is defensible. but nothing can be
said for an embargo which refuses transport
tation facilities 10 some establishments
while according facilities to their com
petitors
The other rule laid down was that a car
rier cannot impose an arbitrary weight
greater than the actual weight on ship
ments Of apples from Illinois points to New
York city. The carrier amended its tariff
so as 10 apply only to actual weight and the
complaint was dismissed. In its opinion
in this case the commission recognized
the right OF a carrier 10 fix an estimated
weight upon certain standard packages.
and this estimated weight Ia to be taken
into consideration in the making of the rate
itself. If, however, the shipper believes
that this estimated weight is arbitrary, he
can appeal to the commission for relief
