 In view of the decision handed down, yesterday, lawyers are inclined to be- lieve that no reason existed for the Ecar-barn surrender by which the company was given permission to cross the sidewalks at Congress street and at Stratford avenue.

NEW YORK PLANS GREATEST
 CROWD IN WORLDS HISTORY
Special from United Press.)

 To handle this vast throng, New York hotel keepers and rooning and boarding house proprietors are mak- ing extensive preparations. Prices will soar, if the advance sale of seats in the various stands be taken as an indication of the rates that will be charged for everything in Gotham during the two weeks celebration. The immense celebration is under the aus- pices of the Hudson-Fulton Celebra- tion Commission, which was incorpo- rated by the state legislature to ar range for .'tfe public celebration of thes tercentenary of the discovery of the Hudson River by Henry Hudson in the year 1909, and the first use of steam in the navigation of said river by Robert Fulton in the year 1S07."
 The comnission will expend at least $5O0000 inss the advance preparations for the celebration, which is to be participated in by scores of warships from all the leading nations.
 Nearly every great public building in New York has already been outlin- ed in electric lights, while 60,000 elec tric lights have been strung on the $ four bridges across the East River and 10000 are being placed on public buildings, the streets along the Man haitian line of parade and other main streets.
 On Sept. 25 and 25, there will be im- preFsssive religious services. On Mon day the 27th, the replica of TH< Half Moon, Hudson's ship, presented blythe Dutch people, will sail out, under heS own sail, to the head of the immense line of warships in the Hudson River. She will be joined there by an exact duplicate of The Clermont, Fulton's ship. which under her own steam, will make the trip up the river.
 The beginning of the great airship and aeroplane flights that are to be a part of the celebration, will occur on Monday. sOn Tuesday there will be monster land and water pageant, followed on various days by number 1ous sports and fetes.
 On October 1, there will be a great naval parade, one division starting at New York and the other at Albany meeting at Newburgh. After that fes- tivities will be held in each of the up- river towns until Oct. g. ending on the night of the ninth, with an immense line of beacon lights which will extend ITUiu SIdleH lSidHu OH lue SOOlH. U the head of navigation of the Hudson river.
 Glenn 1T. Curtiss and Wilbur Wright, the foremost aviators of the world, have been engaged to give aeroplane flights. There will be dirigible bal loon race from New York City to AL bapy for a $10.000 prize.
 To handle the crowds, Police Com missioner Baker will keep his entire force of 100000 men on duty. Balloons, stationed at various intervals, will be used to signal the police.
