RAILWAY WILL FIGHT
ALONG NEW LINES

RAILWAY, June 13:--The common
council, which some time ago decided
by means of injunction. to get a court
decision on the right. of the Middlesex
Water Company to take water from the
Robinson branch of the Railway river.
has determined upon another method or
fighting the Middlesex concern Inc
board unanimously adopted a resolution
whereby the water board of Railway is
Instructed and directed to employ an
engineer, make survey. condemn prop
erty and take such other steps as Will
lead to the city supplying water TO the
city of Railway and adjoining places
which may require 1t.
The city attorney, who drew up the
resolutions said that by special act OF
the legislature in 1868, Railway was
given prior right to the use. OF the
Water. and that the step provided for
in the resolution was the only .Eroper
one for tife city to take. The city still
retained the right of condemning land,
no matter whether the land belonged to
the Middlesex water Company or TO a
private Individual. Mr.. Dobbins had
Attorney General McCarter associated
with himIin the case. and 1t was the
opinion of both: that this was the only
profer procedure. To take out an in
junction against the water company
would amount to nothing. AS the Rah-
way water board was simply an agent
for the city, the city should direct that
body what to do.

STILL THRONC
THE CARNIVAL.
Large Crowds at Show Grounds
PatrOnize Attractions of Biz
Hospital Benefit.
FIREMEN ToNIGHT's FEATURE.

The carnival was just as success
full last night as it has been on the
other nights of this week. The
crowds were large and liberal, and
Manager Miller said that the evening
was good one.
The Royal Arcanum was in charge
last night, but only few of the mem
bers put in appearance and several OF
the hospital governors assisted. E.
l.. Gridley had charge of the sale of
tickets at the circus. He had many
patrons, for the circus is one of the
best attractions at the carnival.
George J. Haney had charge of the
merry-go-round, and the seats were
filled on every trip. The Ferris
wheel had many patrons, as usual.
George Woglom was in charge of the
tin type gallery.
In the afternoon matinee was
held, which gave ladies an oppoftu-
nifty to take their children to the carr
nival without waiting for the crowds
of the evening. The matinee will be
repeated Saturday afternoon.
Tonight the ladies expect to have
one of the largest crowds that have
yet patronized the carnival. The
firemen will be in charge and they al
ways prove to be drawing card.
The Red Men will probably have
charge tomorrow night.

The City Attorney
Gives Unofficial
Statement.
WORTH $1,000

Now that Justice Garrison of the
supreme court has set aside the reso-
luton of the Board of Water Con
missioners to pay $15.500 for the
Fountain land at Runyon, the citizens
are eagerly watching for develop
ments.
AS has already been said in the
NEWS, 1t is not at all probable that
the water board will carry the case
to a higher court. One of the mem-
bers of the board made the statement
that the commissioners would prob
ably let the matter drop.
City Attorney Hommann said, when
seen, that while he could make no Of
fetal statement, he believed that the
probable outcome would be that con-
demnation proceedings will be start
ed to secure the tract from Asbury
and James Fountain. No other
course seems to be open at present.
If condemnation proceedings arc
started to secure the land, the $1,000
which has already been paid to the
Fountains to bind the former deal,
would probably be used as part pay
ment for the tract. According to
Justice Garrison's decision, the entire
tract is not worth more than 81, 900
at fair market value.

DEFENDS THE
PLACARD IDEA
Health Inspector Fithian Replies S
TO Critics Of Systemfor Check
ing Spread Of COntagiOn
MAY COMMENCE 1T TOMORROW.

Health Inspector Cortlandt e.
Brewster inspected number of pub
lie places yesterday and has sent out
notices to places which he has already
inspected The new Inspector is
rapidly becoming accustomed to his
new line of work.
The placards for contagious dis
eases to be used in this city are now
being printed and the work of pla-
carding may be commenced tomor-
row. In reply to a recent public state
ment made by prominent local physi-
clans in regard to the placarding
matter, Health Inspector DR.. G. w.
Fithian says that he cannot see where
this method could be worse than the
present situation. The inspector
further said that this city already has
much more than it's share of con-
tagious diseases, allowing for the de-
crease the last month or two, and at
a recent meeting when such cases
were more plentiful here the in
spector stated that this city contain
ed more cases of contagious diseases
than any other city in the state, al
lowing for it's size.
The inspector says that he is well
aware of the fact that some of the
local doctors will oppose the idea,
but there is nothing else to be done
in the present situation, with the ex-
ception that a fund for an isolation
hospital might be started here.
DR.. Fithian has had many of his
Ideas adopted. Among them are the
school inspector, the uniformed In
spector, stirring up the state tene-
ment house commissioners to the
conditions here and other suggest
ions. The inspector said that he has
secured other things for this city's
benefit and he will yet see the day
when the isolation hospital will be
started here.
In regard to placarding buildings
where there were contagious diseases
it was stated that this method will
aid somewhat in the prevention OF
the spread of the disease, but under
no circumstances will it assist in iso-
lating the case. The placard system
will prevent the spread of the disease
by transferring food and milk bot
ties to and from the building where
the case is confined to great extent
and in this way it will benefit the
city.
Another local physician made state
ment against the placard system yes
terday. He said that such a system
might cause physicians to keep silent
about cases under their care.
IF a DOCTOR said physician yester-
day. goes to the house of good and
perhaps wealthy customer, and that
customer asks the doctor to call the
case scarlet rash instead of scarlet
fever, the physician will be sorely
| tempted to do so. And furthermore, II
| a physician has a good practice among
those citizens who are merchants, ant
refuses to keep quiet about disease
when the merchant tells him to do so
he will find his business falling off, ant
the next time the merchant wants
| physician he will call one who is not s.
scrupuous about reporting cases. II
| any city the placard system has it's dis
advantages, but in u city like PERT
Amboy the disadvantages will be man.
| and the advantages few"

Valves a Hearing.

Albert Bloodgood, of 81 Madison
avenue, who was accused by John H.
Gregory, of petit larceny and assault
and battery. appeared in court this
morning with his attorney, J.. p.
Stricken. Mr.. Gregory said that he
had seen Bloodgood taking some or
his iron away in boat and how,
when he attempted to recover his
property. Bloodgood had struck Of
him with his tiller, making a bruise
on Mr.. Gregory's arm.
After Mr.. Gregory had told his
e4orv he was questioned by Mr..
tricker. The latter then asked to
ear Mr.. Gregory's witnesses, and
when he found that the only witness
Mr.. Gregory had--Eric Sterner--was
a man in his own employ, he waived
a hearing and Bloodgood was held
under $500 bail to appear before the
grand jury. Bail was furnished.

To'BeF Done From
Cadek' S to
Mau!rer.
CONDITION BAD

AS result of visit to this city
yesterday by State Superintendent of
Public Roads Robert A. Meeker, an
effort which has been quietly urged
for some time will soon take definite
form for the macadamizing of upper
State street. from Pulaski avenue,
near Gadek's to Maurer, at the ex-
pense of the county.
This stretch of State street has
been in very poor condition for long
time. Under the law counties can do
such work and it has been done in
other cities, notably Paterson and
Hackensack Members of the Board
of Freeholders have been interested
in the matter and action to that end
will soon, 1t is expected, be taken, as
the state road official here yesterday
said that the improvement is neces-
sity.
Alderman-at-Larg Pfeiffer con-
firmed the report of the contemplated
action this morning and said that
such action had been accomplished in
other counties of the state.
State Superintendent of Roads
Meeker came here yesterday in his
auto and was in conference with
County Engineer Larson for some
time. A number of maps of roads
were gone over. in Surveyor Larson's
Office, after which they took a spin
in Engineer Meeker's auto, looking
over the various roads which were in
need of repairs. After passing over
State street, between Pulaski avenue
and Maurer. it was decided that that
portion of the road is in poor condi-
tion, particularly for winter use, and
should be macadamized.
Roads Elsewhere Also.
The road between Colonia and
Avenel, and the road from the Albany
street bridge at New Brunswick to the
Landing bridge must also be macad;
amized. Before this work is done the
roads will have, to. be graded and En-
gineer Larson will commence the
early part of next week to prepare
sketches for this work

MlDDLESEx EXPECTED
TO BE FOR SiLZER

NEW BRUNSWICK, June 13: -
Senator George S. Silzer will be the
choice of the Middlesex democracy
for governor this year. He hasn't
ayowed his candidacy and probably
he wont, but he will have the county
delegation at his back in the conven-
ton unless he says he isn't a candi-
date.
1t is no secret that Mr.. Silzer has
been urged by men high up in his
party's affairs to make fight for the
nomination, but he wont do that.
While he thinks it possible that a
combination of events may make him
the party choice, he also thinks he is
too young in state politics to go chas-
ing up the honor.

refuse to abide by it. Two South AM
boy agents, 1t is understood were at
the meeting.

were questioned about the meeting
today they refused to discuss 1t al
though it was denied that action con-
corning the small agents was taken.
Aside from admitting that meeting
had been held. nothing would be Civ
