many handsome private estates. In North
Plainfield on the slope OF the mountains n
in Netherwood, which lies east OF the town
proper, are the country homes OF many
surroundings, Plainield is still a modern
city,
The railroad has four stations within the
city limits and provides through express
service TO New York. Several important
trolley lines centre at Plainfeld. Con
Crawford, Elizabeth, Newark and other
towns to the eastward or for Bound Brook
and Somerville IN the west.
On the outskirts Of Plainfeld is Dunellen,
with it's broad streets and trim. we'll kept
gardens. The population Is composed
mainly Of New York commuters.
Bound Brook. which takes its name from
the nearby stream forming the boundary
line between Somerset and Middlesex
counties. is an old established community
dating back to Revolutionary days. II is
situated on three railroad lines, the New
Jersey Central, the Lehigh Valley and the
Philadelphia and Reading. To the south
are the Raritan River Inc the Delaware and
Raritan Canal. A business district OF some
importance has grown up near the railroad
station, but a short walk brings one 10 the
open country at the foot Of the mountains.
Somerville. the Y important stop on
the railroad, is practically the limit OF the
committing area. The town is the dis
trbuing centre for the farm
ing community. Its situation on the main
highways leading 20 Bernardsville and other
important points in this region brings a great
number Of automobiles 10 the town. The
railroad divides here, forming two branches.
ona following the north branch Of the Rari-
tan River and the other the south branch.
As a residential tow Somerville is IN
surpassed by n other in New Jersey.
It Is very old and Is laid out on the generous
lines followed in the early days before the
territory now within the suburban limits
was being 80 extensively occupied by
New Workers. The houses are spacious
and comfortable, with large rooms and
encircling verandas. Nearly all are sur
rounded by gardens or flower beds, and in
many cases are partially ~overgrown with
climbing vines. The & Of theNtown is
attested by the fine old trees lining the
streets and overhanging the modest resi-
dences. Spreading elms and tall pines
and hemlocks cast a welcome shade over
the grassy lawns and half conceal the
houses from the eyes Of passersby. About
a mile and a half TO the northward lies
the first ridge Of the Watching Noun
tains.

the Central Railroad OF New Jersey
'Hsye Been Transformed Into Com.
Portable Settlements for Commuters.
The main line Of the Central Railroad Of
New Jersey traverses for a large part Of its
length a rich farming territory. Beyond
the big manufacturing centres located on
the low ground fringing Newark Bay and
! Staten Island Sound is a broad stretch Of
undulating ground rising gradually to the
steep slope OF the Watching Mountains.
After leaving the C~ommunipaw docks at
the lower end OF Jersey City the railroad
follows the long peninsula which separates
View York Bay from Newark Bay, passing
through Claremont. Greenville. Pamrapo
and the city OF Bayonne.
At Bergen Point. the lower extremity Of
the Bayonne ~promonotory, the Jersey Cen
tral line swings of sharply TO the westward,
crosses Newark Bay on a broad trestle and
enters the city Of Elizabeth. This route.
while more roundabout la the course
pursued by other railroads running out Of
Jersey City, has several important advan-
tsKes. IL obviates the ~disoomforts and
dangers Of smoky tunnels and also removes
the necessity for steep grades.
Elizabeth. like other manufacturing CEN
tres In eastern New Jersey. Is apt to be
misjudged by those who pass through it
4 on the railroad. The big factories near the
waterfront and the adjaoen: tenements
make an unfavorable impression on one
who views the city from the car window.
Elizabeth is in reality divided into two
distinct sections. To the left Of the rail
road. the dividing line, lie the manufacturing
district along the waterfront. To the right
lies the residence district proper. A short
walk 70 the north or west Of the station
brings one to the quiet and secluded homes
Of well to do people. Here no hint OF the
dirt and confusion Of the big industries at
the other end Of the own intrudes itself.
Elizabeth is the county eeat OF Union
county and ranks seventh in size among
the cities az New Jopey. Its population is
about 5000. Ite grammar and pruparA-

POWERS PEACHES
GIVES OUT CoRREsPONDENCE WITH
 HENRY Y0UTsEY.
Letters Are Of Incrinainating Nature. Demands Made On State For
 Early Trial.

Lexington, Ky. Oct, 2.--In a card tonight signed by Caleb Powers, the correspondence covering several years between him and the men and women Jointly indicted with him at Frankfort on the charge of securing pertnred tes- timony to fix the guilt of the murder of ex Governor William Goebe on Hem ry Youtsey is made public.
 : Powers says that the fist information that he got was through the mother of James w. stevenson, who told him that her son had written to her that Youtsey said that the first thought of killing GoebeI came to him when Governor Taylor was making the canvass over the State. He said 1t looked sure that Taylor would win and that .Goebel would steal the election.
 Youtsey, so Stevenson wrote to his mother. made up his mind that Goebel must be done away with and when the election contest came up. he said that he and a fellow named Culton planned the murder. He said that Youtsey. tried to get a number of per- sons to commit the, crime, but when he failed to secure the assassin decided to kill Goebel himself. and the keys to Powers's office were furnished him by a man named Hezekiah Smith. He said that Youtsey had told him that he had killed Goebel.
 Powers today sent a telegram to Commonwealth Attorney Robert B. Franklin of Frankfort, demanding q trial at once.

SPENT BIG DEFICIT
 TO HINDER LEGISLATION
This Was One of Startling Develop ments in Street RaiIway
 Investfgatien.

New York, Oct. 2.--The Metropolitan Street Railway systemss special con- struction fund" was again the chief object of inquiry before the Public Ser vice Commission today, and Lemuel B. Quigg. as before, gave most of the in- formation.
 It was charged that this fund in- oluded lawyers fees for creating oppo- sition in Albany to the Belmont tun- nel. Quigg told of paying former Judge William M. K. Olcott $10,o00 for moulding public sentiment" other expenses were $250 to R. D. Fox, pro- prietor of an information bureau at Washington" and $750 to John Fox for opposing the Belmont tunnel" and several checks payable to L.. A. New combe, detective hired to trail Will liam N. Armory. whom Quigg regard cd as ''the most able and persistent of the company's enemies.
 According to the testimony Quigg spent most of his time hindering or promoting legislation, and as he put it 'taccelerating public eagerness' in va- rious directions It was further brought out that Quigg controlled a complete organization of 1awyers. de- tectives and sentiment boosters" which he used to further the ends of the Met rcpolitan.

 This envoIvcd an ethical. not a per- sonai question. and the ethics of pIac- ing an attorney who had prepared cases for one side in a position of afterward passing upon them in judicial capac- ity was similar to that raised with ref erence to the appointment of Attorney General Moody to the Supreme bench when cases which he had prepared on one side as Attorney General would come before the court for decision.

Pari. Waiter. May strike.

There is every possibility that the walters of the Paris cafes. win shortly go, on strike again in support of their cherished right to wear mustaches.
 They struck last April in defence of the right and also because the cafe proprietors made their pay too heavy for breakages of glass and china. An agreement was arrived at and the walters let their mustaches grow, bus lately a number of dafe keepers have refused to engage any but clean shaw en walters and the charge for breaks ages has crept up to ftS old level agair.
 During the last few days number of indignation meetings have been hela by the men.
 have been round several cafes today, and I find both walters and proprie- tors firm and resolute. The walters declare that rather than sacrifice their mustaches they will allow Paris to hum ger and thirst The proprietors de- clare that if they cannot get train sd walters they will get untrained ones And SO another walters war apepars to be looming in the near fu.lcs.

Cincinnati. Oct. 2.-Denunciation of the pessimism which "emanates from certain quarters of the efforts of the President to enforce the laws of the country, and bring offenders to justice" concluded the address of United States Senator Toraker before the Grain Deal- CTS National Convention in this city this afternoon. He spoke briefly of the Inability of railroads to market enough secur1ties to enable them to make needed improvements and en- Judgements. In conclusion he said:
 T am optimistic enough to believe that turn of the tide will come be- fore we reach the stages of panic and disaster, but 1t must come soon or be too late to avert consequences of the most harmful character"
 He quoted from recent Wall Street reviews n various newspapers in which the effect of President Roosevelt's speeches was discussed adversely and continued

come tax because one scheme nor an
income tax was declared unconstitu-

care would have TO be exercised to see
men it was most desirable to have
taxed, for IL so evaded IL would, or
course, be worse than no tax at all:
as the least desirable of all taxes is
the tax which bears heavily upon the
honest as compared with the dishon-

come tax OF the proper type would be a
desirable feature of the federal staxa-

may be devised which the supreme
court will declare constitutional Tho
