a number of our citizens that public

THE move of the State Board of

pies the most favorable position among
all the States with respect to its for

Pennsylvania has about three-quar-

company claimed that it was in the

COMMUNICATIONS.
EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE:

Dear sir:
In your issue Of July 5th, you print
a notice, with regard to the laying Of
sewer pipes in the streets of Morris.
town, and a recommendation to all
property owners to arrange with the
contractors to lay their connection as
far as curb line, so as to necessitate
but one opening of the street.
l write this letter in the hope that
you will be able to enlighten me, as
well as many others, who manage their
own property, and by reason of the
aforementioned notice, realize that
there is some certain thing they should
d., but not knowing how to do it.
Is each property owner to write to
the contractor, telling him to make
their pipe connection; doubtless after
reading several thousand letters, yours
will be reached, after the street, on
which your property lies has been torn
up, pipes laid and filled in again. Or
would you advise the owner if he is
not the tenant, as many are not, to
take a daily stroll past his property
and when he finds the digging has be-
gun, look up a man who may be the
boss and notify him that when he
reaches your lot to lay the pipe to the
curb line.
Then again Supposing the owner is
out OF town, as many are: does the
town intend to notify him that his
street is to be opened, and does he wish
the connection made 7?
Ii the town intends to compel every
property owner to connect his property
with the sewer, would not the best and
most sensible thing for both the owner
and contractor, surely the one that
would cause the least confusion for all;
be 1T to have the contractor connect
each piece of property with the sewer,
as the engineers consider best and
proper; and send the bill with each tax
Dill for the owner to settle.
Ii it is still considered best by old
fashioned Morristown, for each and
every property owner to write to the
contractor; perhaps the chairman will
be pleased to enlighten one of your
readers and no doubt many others, as
to his name and address. C.H.K.

ORCHARD AGAIN ON STAND.
Informer In Haywood Trial Admits
Uncle Hanged Himself.

Uncle Ranged f1inself.
Boise, Ida, July 16.-Another war
rant charging perjury against wit
ness who has testified for the defense
in the trial of William d. Haywood for
the murder Of Frank Steunenberg was
issued. G. W. Aller, formerly tele-
graph operator and ticket agent for the
Florence and Cripple Greek railroad at
Cripple Crock, is charged with the Of
Tense by the prosecuting attorney of
Ada county.
Eleven witnesses in rebuttal were
examined. Harry Orchard reappeared
on the stand and was asked few
questions as to his acquaintance with
some Of the witnesses for the defense
who have testified as to his move
ments. On being turned over to the
cross examination Orchard admitted
that his uncle, Peter Mckinney, COM
mitted suicide by hanging thirteen OF
fourteen years ago.
Counsel for the defense asked Or
chard If this uncle was not insane be-
fore he killed himself and also tried to
show by the witness that his maternal
grandfather was insane his monoma-
MIA being imaginary crimes committed
q long time ago in Ireland. Orchard
denied all knowledge of the GRANDPA
Their, but admitted that his uncle was
demented for year or so, although
not over imaginary crimes.
Witnesses who contradicted the evil
dence given by c. w. Aller, who testi-
fed for the defense in support of the
charge of a conspiracy against the
Western Federation of Miners, in
which it is alleged the Mine Owners
association, the chief Citizens alliance
and the Pinkerton Detective agency
We're concerned. Aller swore that he
saw Orchard and D. G. Scott together
at the station Of the Florence and
Cripple Greek railway on a Sunday
about three weeks prior to the explo-
sion at the Independence station on
June 6, 1904.
Scott swore that he was not in Grip.
| pie Greek at that time, and witnesses
corroborated this. AS result of this
rebuttal testimony information was
sworn out after court adjourned charg
ing Aller with perjury.
The explosion at the home Of Fred
Bradley in San Francisco was again
under consideration, the state under
taking to show that the effect of an
| explosion Of Illuminating gas could
not have been that described in the
dispositions taken for the defense ii
San Francisco. The manager Of thu
| Boise Gas companyy O. d. LampsOn
who was at one time resident Of
New York, qualified as an expert. HI
discredited the assertion that gas
could have been ignited by the glow a
the end of cigar. He showed tech
meal knowledge of gas and its proper
ties as an explosive. The general eff
i feet of his evidence was that the ex
! plosion at the Bradley home could no
have been caused by gas.

THE Interstate Commerce Com

railways may operate Jim Crow"
cars-that is, cars for the special use
of colored passengers-but they must
provide the same conveniences and ac-
eommodations for first-class colored
passengers as for the whites, even to
wash bowls, towels and separate smok-
ing compartments. The effect of this
decision will be awaited with some in
terest. When a Southern railroad is
compelled to provide a special Pull.

through colored passengers, it may
find it profitable to raise the color
line.
