Special to the EVENING NEWS:
TRENTON, June 20:-Total dis
agreement was the outcome this
morning of the further meeting of
the conference committee appointed
to consider the course of the legisla-
ture. The democrats on the commit
tee stood by their position to continue
the investigation on the present basis
and take up reform legislation. The
position of the republican senate was
to make the committee a joint one.
They could not come to terms on
this proposition and SO disagreed.
Following the adjournment of the
committee the republican senate and
the democratic assembly respectively
held a caucus. The object of these
moves was to determine the course
of each house.
The probability is that the as
sembly will continue the present in
vestigation as now conducted, and
the senate, in retaliation, will order
an investigation into the Passait
county election last fall and the elec.
tion of the Hudson county freehold.

The chances are the Legislative ses

Armstrong began to show his pitch

struck out Hahn, the first man, whe
retreated amid shower of lemons
from the New York end of the pavil-

Workers had the bases full, with two
men out, when Armstrong struck
Hahn out, the New Workers getting
some lemons and Armstrong a rose
from the actresses corner. In this
inning the real game was being
played and the players began to pro-
test decisions. Armstrong wanted
credit for a strike-out, but Umpire

AT ASSEMBLY OPENING

Besides the merriment incidental
to the introduction of several resolu-
tions at the meeting of the assembly
at Trenton DIR. Crowther, who re-
signed as an assemblyman when he
was appointed a member of the Mid

ty speech. He wished the legislators
"1ong and warm session" after he

race suicide dogma, be notified Of
ficially by the 131st New Jersey leg
islature that that lawmaking body is
proud of its clerk, Michael w. Hig-
gins, whose home was recently Wis

The machinists and pipefitters at

has not been granted. There have
been forty-five or fifty men out, and
it is understood that all of them will

STATE LABOR
CONVENTION.
Call for the Annual Session TO be
Held at Trenton August 10
Has Been Issued.
MATTERS TO Be CONSIDERED.

Cornelius Ford, president of the
executive board of the New Jersey
State Federation of Labor, has is
sued call for the Goth annual con-
vention which will take place in Tren-
ton August 10. The sessions will be-
gin at 1890 Monday morning and
continue throughout the following
day. The conferences will be in the
assembly chamber at the state house.
Phe headquarters of the executive
board will be at Hotel Windsor.
The circular says in part: Almost
all labor legislation secured is the re-
suit of the earnest efforts of the state
federation. An important field of
work in legislative matters in which
the state federation has exerted a
great influence is its ability to defeat
the passage of anti-labor laws 1t can
and does exercise a most powerful OPP
position to measures detrimental to
the interests of labor, as well as ex-
ercise influence in favor of the pas
sage of the measures which they de-
sire, and we urge the necessity of all
labor unions helping us to continue
this work in the future. We are the
only organization that maintains a
watchful care over the workers in
terests at the legislatures sessions.

DEMANDS ACTION NOW.
Declares That Hudson County
Boss Has Broken Faith With
the People.
DICKINSON CANNOT BE SEEN.
He Is Expected to Issue a State
ment Giving His Side of the
Case-AnsWer Awaited.
specia, to the EVENING NEWS:

Specfdt TO the EF FENlNG NE VS.
TRENTON, June 20:-Governor
Stokes sent to the senate this after
noon a copy of his letter to Secretary
of State Dickinson in which he de-
mands Col. Dickinson's resignation.
With the communication the COVER
nor sent brief message explaining
that he sent the letter to the senate
because that body was familiar with
the situation and was party of the
appointive power.
The letter first reviewed the situa--
tion leading up to the bringing of the
100000 suit by Col. Dickinson
against Mayor Pagan, of Jersey City,
and the promise Col. Dickinson had
given Governor Stokes to resign If
Mayor Fagan's charges were proven
true. Governor Stokes letter then
says that party expediency should not
be pleaded as an excuse for halting
the case started by Col. Dickinson.
The letter then says that the secre-
tary of state has been guilty of a
breach of faith with the people of the
state, to which the governor will not
be a party.
Continuing, the letter says the
public official who withdraws under
such circumstances cannot retain the
confidence of the people. The letter
to Col. Dickinson closes as follows:
''It is time for you TO act. | now
ask and await your prompt retire
ment from the Office of secretary of
state"
Col. Dickinson is not here today
and he could not be interviewed on
the matter. 1t is generally under
stood that he will issue a statement
from Jersey City tomorrow, giving
his side of the controversy.

OWNERS NAME ON INTERIOR.

Charles M. Vail, of III Rector

ductor's box, No. 54, in lot
at Broad and High streets last night.
The box had several hundred tick
cts in it, all of which had been used.
There were several mileage books,
important papers, two punches and
other articles. The box had been
broken open, the thieves probably
thinking that it contained money.

of the box, which is now at abe police

SURFACE WATER COST.
Strata at RunyOn Clear Sand
With Little Soluble Matter,
Report States.
FIGURES PRODUCTION AND COST
System to Install Would Cost About
$50,000-Water Contains Only
40 Solids in 100000.

In report on ground storage sub
mitted to the Board of Water Com
missioners last night, Engineer S. ].
Mason speaks in the highest terms of
the ground storage method, and fa-
+ vors it for quality and economy. For
quality it is unexcelled, he states,
and it costs only one-half as much as
surface storage water would cost, ac-
cording to his findings.
The holding strata at Runyon, be-
ing formed of clear sand with very
little soluble matter, makes an excel
lent reservoir for rain water The
ground storage water, being derived
directly from rain water and imme-
diately stored in clean sand, is in very
little danger of organic pollution.
The swamp area should be restrict
ed as much as possible for swampy
water contains much organic matter
which, when passing through the
sand stratum, causes detrimental
chemical action. The quality of the
ture affords. 1t is soft for washing,
containing less than 40 solids per L.
100000. It is perfectly clear and re-
: mains SO for years in glass bottle.
1t is sweet to the taste, excellent for
drinking and attractive for bathing
1t has slight blush tint and minute
objects are easily discernable through
twenty-five feet of the water in the
suction well at Runyon.
The red sediment inside the SER
vice pipes, caused by the mixture of
the pond and well water some time
ago, will gradually disappear when
well water is used exclusively.
Ground storage water is superior to
all kinds of surface water, not ex-
Guiding mountain streams and lakes,
which sometimes contain cholera and
typhoid germs.
Will Cost About $4,000.
The cost of the ground storage sys-
tenn will be about $4,000 while, to
make a surface reservoir for the stor-
age of Tennent's Brook, would cost
about 100000. The estimated
amount of ground storage water OBJ
tainable on Tennent's Brook shed is
10000 gallons per day. The mini
r mum amount from Tennents Brook
is 100000 gallons per day, which
could be increased to 100000 by
constructing suitable surface reser-
voir to carry over the seasons OF
drought.
In the case of the Runyon ground
storage reservoir the conditions for
obtaining large quantities of water
are very favorable, the storage strata
yielding twenty-five per cent. of its
cubic pumping volume in water. The
amount of water that this change
will produce is 420,000,000 gallons
at the rate of 100000 per day. This
would be seventy days storage with
out rainfall and, after seventy days
the yield could be extended at a grad
ually lessened daily rate for an equal
period
A resume of the quantities during
dry season is as follows: Rainfall
100000 gallons; storage, 6,000,.
600 gallons; artesian, 100000; to.
tai, 12,200,000.
The water taken from the ground
{ storage will cost the city $S0.50 pei
2 day, or about $14 per million gal,
Ions, and delivered at the taps $18C
per day, of $50 per million gallons
1t is easily worth $50 per million tc
consumers at the present average
rate.
