LEAK IN WATER
main IS FOUND
IN EAST NEWARK
Clark Thread Mills May Lose
$1,000 Through Break
Found in Pipe.

After hunting two days for a leak
which was wasting 100000 gallons a
day, the Suburban Water Company's
superintendent. Richard yeale, of Ar
lington, discovered the place of the
loss yesterday afternoon. He and his
men began their usual tests at Belize
Vile turnpike and thence worked their
way two miles southwark to the point
where Kearny joins East Newark,
every hydrant and sewer basin being
carefully examined, but with negative
results.
On reaching the mills of the Clark
Mile End Thread Works, in East New
ark, the trouble was discovered. A
leak had sprung in the automatic fire.
sprinkling system, and the water was
rushing in great volume into the sewer
Careful listening at the piping al diff
ferent points ON the premises revealed
the leak.
The Clarks discontinued buying
water from the borough of East New
ark four years ago, and have since been
dealing directly with the Suburban
Company, and, it is understood, at a
price much cheaper than that charged
by East Newark.
The CLARK company's contract with
the Suburban Water Company pro-
vides that the waste on the thread mil
grounds shall be paid for as well as the
water purposely used, SO that h water
company feels rather gratified that the
leak did not spring anywhere along its
own mains. but that the wasted water
went through a private meter and will
have to be paid for. 1t is possible tina,
the Clarks, therefore, will stand tc
lose close to 81, 900.

NORTH ARLINGTON
LOSES POINT IN
FIGHT FOR WATER
Court Demands More Proof in
Action to Restrain Car
rier Firm.

The dispute over the right of water
companies to transport potable water
from his State to other States for sale
there, a question much mooted just
now. was once more touched upon to-
day in Nice-Chancellor Howells court,
when former Judge Gilbert Z. Collins, of
Jersey City, moved to dismiss the bill
filed some time ago by him on behalf
of the New York and New Jersey
Water Company to restrain the Dor
ough of North Arlington from inter
fering with the laying of a water main
through three streets of that borough,
In order to complete a scheme to sup
ply Bayonne with water.
Warren L. Dixon, city counsel of Jer-
sey City. n also appearing in the
present action on behalf of North
Arlington, opposed the motion of Mr.
Collins. not because of the bill, but
because it would necessarily make void
the cross-bill OF the borough which
prayed on order restraining the car
rying of the water from the State.
AT this point the vice-chancellor in
terrupted to ask if Mr.. Dixon thought
the borough of North Arlington had an
equity in its favor, and inquired fur
Their as to where its interest came in
Mr.. Dixon replied that the borough
officials represented the citizens of
North Arlington, md the latter had an
interest in the potable waters the
Legislature has said shall not be taken
out of the State and sold.
But the Legislature hasn't appointed
the Borough of North Arlington as the
guardian of its probable waters" ex-
claimed the vice-chancellor.
81 realize that is quite So" said Mr..
Dixon. but the situation is this: The
water company comes in with a bill and
says it is going to supply Bayonne. We
deny that and say on the contrary that
the water company intends to carry out
of the State the water which the Legis-
lature says shall not be transported.
The situation here is different from that
which underlies the suit brought by
me encouragement under the Bach
ellor act"
The vice-chancellor informed Mr.
| Dixon that he needed further proof in
the matter. and said the attorney could
| consider the court opposed to his con-
tention until this was. forthcoming.
Mr.. Dixon again explained the differ
ence between the suits, laying stress on
bthe fact that the action of the attor-
ne~y-general is to enjoin h laying of
pipes going directly out of the State
under the Kill von Kull, while the
present move on the part of the water
company is somewhat veiie6
YES said TIN vfce-chaneellor. "but
the first is to ecarrys but of the State
water which the Legislature says shall
not be carried out"
Mr.. Dixon was given one week to
submit briefs in support of his conten-
ton.

WOMEN Of ORANGE
OFFER To TAKE
OVER PLAYGROUND
Will Buy Property for Charitable
Purposes if 1t Is Exempted
from Taxation.

That the Wonlan's Club. Of Orange,
plans TO take over the Orange play
ground. In Gray street, that city, pro-
yided the Orange Common Council Will
assure the CLUB ONE that in future
the rendezvous tor little folk win be
treated as a charitable and educational
institution and exempted from taxation
and municipal assessments, was stated
last night by q committee from the
fairgrounds committee of the club at
the closing meeting of the Council. The
committee incluaed Mrs. Arthur d.
Chandler and Mrs. Henry P. Bailey.
and President William A Calhoun ex-
planned to the women that as the Coun
ell was retiring from office it could
bind the 1910 body TO no formal action,
particularly as the question Of future
assessments n taxes was UP to the
tax assessors who made up the usual
levies. The women requested ON
| formal expression of opinion, however.
ard City Counsel William A. Lord was
directed TO send ar opinion on the
ncints involved to the Woman's Club
before January 1.
Mrs. Chandler, in opening the sub
ject, explained that she had been in
formally told the first proposition of
the club committee to the Council last
fall a never been formally consid-
cred by the Council, and, explaining
that the club wished to take advan-
tage of an option to buy the property.
she asked that the Council go into a
committee of the whole and state what
attitude on future taxes and assess
ments on the playground the body
would take. Land in the city was get
ting more expensive, she said, and to
obtain the playground for the little
folk the club women will buy 1t If
they are assured of exemptions. She
said the playground was really a con-
tinuation of the kindergarten work of
the public schools and hat the kinder
garten at the ground vas furnished by
the Board of Education. Mrs. Bailey
also urged some formal expression n
told of the good work accomplished for
the children in the playground and
said the work was a p~hilanthropic en-
terprise, purely charitable and educa-
tional.
City Counsel Lord said the matter of
taxes was up to the assessors and he
had no doubt thai if they considered
| the playground was within the law. gov
erning exemptions for school and char
liable enterprises they could so exempt.
Mrs. Bailey requested an opinion in
writing and the counsel was directed to
send a formal communication to the
club.
The women explained h club desires
to take up the matter in the spring, SO
as to secure possession. If the assess
ments and taxes are waived in future.
before the option expires next fall.
Gray street is being improved at the
present time and these expenses will
naturally go against the land. Mrs.
Bailey was careful to explain last night
that the committee was anxious to get
an opinion on future assessments, not
present ones. The playground has been
maintained five years by the club, as
John d. Everitt. the owner. leased the
property to them for that period.
