BILL PASSES ON
RECONSIDERATION
Some Persons Believe Total Cost
of the Reservoir Will Be
Double Estimate.
ONE OF BIGGEST "JOBS"
EVER PUT UP ON STATE
East Jersey Water Go. Regarded
as Greatest Benefciary-Might
Prevent Flooding of Paterson.
Lrrom a stan correspondent.l

TRENTON, April 3.-After having been
defeated early in yesterdays session of
the Senate the HinchIiffe bill to estab-
lish a water district for Essex County
and parts of Hudson, Passaic, Union
and Morris Counties, was reconsidered
last night and passed by the vote of IL
to 4. The bill is suspected to be one of
the biggest Jobs ever put up on the
State.
The bill authorizes the State Water
Commission to put out ST. 500. 900 of
bonds. The bill is intended to store up
the flood waters of the Passaic River
in an immense reservoir. This will pre-
vent the flooding of Paterson, and is
one of the reasons why Senator Hinch-
life is so interested in the measure,
though ii is also supposed that the res
ervoir will insure a water supply for
the northern part of the State in the
distant future.
While the estimate has been made
that the reservoir can be built for less
than 81, 500, 900, it is believed by manyw we'll
informed persons that the cost will be
much greater and ultimately may be
double the figures quoted, and that an
Interior motive is to benefit the East
Jersey Water Company, which has ad-
vocated the construction of this plant.
Under the plans of the water COM
mission, it is proposed to build a great
dam at Mountain View, back of which
will be water hat will cover thousands
Of acres, mostly in Passaic County.

NEWARK CHARTER
MEASURE LOST IN
THE LEGISLATURE
Mystery Over the Question Why
1t Had Not Been In
Produced.
NO ACTION TAKEN ON
INVESTIGATION REPORT
Pledges for Home Rule Relative
to Sale of Liquor on Sum
days Also Forgotten.
From a Staff Correspondent

TRENTON, April 3.-The Legislature
has gone home for the week, with tte
doors practically closed to the introduce
ton of new bills and prospects good
for sine die adjournment next Thursday
at the latest.
Newark's proposed new charter, the
work of a commission appointed a rear
ago n Of a Common Council COM
mittee that a%ntedates the commission,
has not beer introduced. 1t was ap.
proved by the commission long ago
and its introduction promised without
fail.
1t was to have been passed and sub
mitted to the people this fall. Where
1t is I'M why it hasn't been introduced
are questions that are lard to answer.
The bills urged by the Hahn investi-
eating committee of last years Assem-
bly, have not been introduced. Sulli-
van, of Hudson, leader of the Demo-
cratic minority, spoke to Majority
Leader Martin this week about arrang-
ing for their presentation, but they
haven't been forthcoming.
The bill to permit the sale of liquor
on Sunday if the local excise authori-
ties so desired, or if the people so
voted in any municipality, has not been
introduced. The Essex A~ssemblymer.
are pledged to put in a home rule ex-
else bill that would cover this question.
1t hasn't been presented. 1t was pre-
pared long ago. but has been lost in the
shuttle, apparently.

might have been passed. The measure
is to revive and extend the charters of
water companies, and it was described
as a snake of the worst sort. Assem-
blyman Charles Blohm, of Hudson
County, called attention to it after the
introducer, Voorhees,, of Middlesex, had
spoken briefly about it.
Mr.. Blohm said the bill was one of
the worst tina ever appeared in the
House and that it would revive water
companies whose charters had died out
fifty or a hundred years ago, and no.
body could tell the result of that.
J The bill recites that whenever the
time limited for the completion oft any
water works = . 8 has expired or
cember, 1907 the time shall be ex-
tended two years upon compliance with
certain conditions. If the words "has
expired or" were not in the bill, it
might have been acceptable.
Mr.. Blohm's discovery was at once
followed up by Mr.. Martin, who also
denounced the bill.
IT was believed that the bill was de-
signed to give subsidiaries of the East
Jersey Water Company the right to lay
water pipes beneath the streets of Jer-
sey City and supply railroads and other
water companies which now secure
their supply from the city. The bill
would nullify two bills to prevent the
East Jersey from competing with Jer-
sey City in that city for the supply of
water. Voorhees,. the in%troducer, an
nounced last night that he will move
to have the bill reconsidered Monday
night. Only two votes were cast for
the bill.

7RUSTCO.RECEVER
WINS $4,000 NOTE
ENDORSEMENT SUIT
Chief Justice Refuses Plea of De-
fendant in the Lower
Court.
Especial to the Evening start

lDPLSinA " thC Rbots1
TRENTON, April Sin an opinion
that has just been handed down in the
Supreme Court by Chief Justice Gum
mere the rule to show cause vas dis
charged in the suit of John E.. tanning,
receiver of the Monmouth Trust and
Safe Deposit Company, of Asbury
Park, against Samuel Johnson and
others. The receiver sued in the lower
court and recovered Judgment on a
note made by Mr.. Johnson for $4,000.
The paper was drawn at the solicita-
tion of President Twining, of the bank,
who assured Mr.. Johnson that it would
not be discounted until he had OBJ
tanned the signatures of the other di-
rectors of the bank as indorsers. In
stead of doing so he discounted the
note ON his own responsibility without
comforting with the board.
Decision was affirmed in the suit of
Patrick Connolly against the New Jer-
sey Street Railway Company. The
plaintiff vas n~on-suited in the lower
court. He was a Jersey City motor
man, and was injured while about to
take a car out on a trip by a loolse
car truck, which had been left upon
the tracy by alleged careless workmen.
The chief justice says the company
is not chargeable with the consequence
of a place for work made dangerous
only by the carelessness and neglect of
fellow servants. or for the neglectful
in which they use tools or ma
terials furnished to them.
In the suit of Charles Christianson
against w. H. and f. w. Cane Com
pany, Christianson loses his suit. He
was awarded damages in the lower
court for injuries sustained in the fall
ing of a derrick used in the construc-
tion of a building in Hoboken.
The chief justice holds that the
plaintiff should have been non-suited.
