ernor 20 act on the bills.
The measures which are thus killed relate to the
transfer title of Jamaica Bay lands by state

TO PRESERVE HTGHWAYS.
Commission Contem plates Radical
Departure in Construction.

Albany, May Z1.-A radical departure In the
method Of constructing improved highways by state
aid to provide against damage to the top course or
wearing surface Of the macadam, due largely %
the increase in automobile traffic, and which Will
il is believed, materially increase the durability and
permanency OF the improved highways. is under
contemplation bv the State Highway Commission,
The commission in 4 statement to-day says:
i has been found that if the top course or wear
ing surface Of the macadam highway be constructed
with q bituminouS binder ii resiliency is impaired
which tends 10 add the permanenCy and dura-
biity of the Topd, and the fine material IS held
IN place, which not only does away with the aust
nuisance but also prevents the rapid deterioration
of the roadway, otherwise due to the action OF the
automobile traffic its surface. While the original
cost is somewhat larger, yet the decrease in eX-
pense of maintenance and repair in the future more
than offsets the increased cost of original construe
tiOn.
The commission has been giving this subject very
careful consideration and study and has person
ally examined large number of improved mac
adam highways in adjacent states which have been
constructed with a btuminous hinder, and have
decided that ii is advisable TO adopt this method
in the construction Of many of the roads now
under contract and which viii be subject to heavy
trafhc when completed. In the counties of Orange

brought BY George ". Griffin. negro Pullman
porter, for false arrest the Appellate Division Of
the Supreme Court by q division of three TO two
upheld yesterday a remarkable ruling made bv
Justice Dugro on the trial of the first action The
Jury awarded Griffin verdict for 1850 which
Justice Dugro decided was excessive, ordering the
plaintiff 70 accept sSoo He refused and the court
aside the verdict
IN thus deciding Justice Dugro took largely into
consideration the fact that Griffin was negro
He raised the question whether a negro would feel
as much shame by arrest and imprisonment as a

gate FOR himself the entire subject Of navy YARD
reorganization is expressed by unpreiudiced Off
GERS The officers who have hoped that the pres
ent administration would adopt the Newberry
regulations and permanently install the Newherry
plan are correspondngly disappointed. They say
they entertain no question as to the conclusion
Secretary Meyer will reach but they perceive that
the delay in the complete approval of the New
berry plan is fTaught with danger to that project
especially its critics determined 10 talk
members of Congress and prepare them for op-
position, should Mr.. Meyer undertake to ask Con-
gress for legislation to carry out plan of reor-
ganization.
Mr. Meyers business experience has fitted him
particularly for the task imposed on him. ana
those who approve his plan elated that the
Secretary Is not inclined to force on the navy
yards any system of organization and method OF
operation until he is convinced that 1t is for the
benefit of the fleet, the military efficiency OF whlch
is the important, not to say the sole, tuhctlon OF
