Imports and Exports.
The International trade movement is
beginning to look little better. The
imports for March were $4,000 900 larger
than in 1908 and about even with the
March record for 1907. Exports are a lit
tie less than last year. 1t is evident that
this country is beginning to buy more
freely from its neighbors and that it does
not feel obliged to part with its COM
modities to raise money.
Reports from nearly thirty of the most
important cities in the country show a

the building permits. In Greater New
York alone permits for March footed up
2I,5OO, 600, an increase over March last
year of nearly 400 per cent. During that
month thirty-f1ve cities issued permits for
$75, ,OOO, 900 in new building construction.

Freeholder w. T. Stacey, of this city,
when seen this morning, said that the
members of the board are not sure that
they have jurisdiction in the case, as
it involves a township road and not a

that there were number Of people
present at the hearing yesterday morn
ing and that counsel for the coal com
pany and for several property-owners
of the township spoke.
In the opinion of Freeholder Stacey,

counsels of those interested will argue
out the matter.

Councilman Campion moved it be
received and filed, but an amend
ment offered by DR.. Haines that 1t

think 1t would be well. to instruct
one of our officers to go there and
remedy the trouble
Councilman Campion stated he
was oyer the bridge almost every
day and all hours of the day and the
fault was with the men in the auto
mobiles. He thought IL one of the
oncers would go over there certain
portions of the day that he could dis
perse the boys SO there would be no
trouble.
Councilman Berrian stated he
passed through the Hole" frequent
ly, that the men considered it favor
to be guided through the Hole"
and If they were disposed to tip the
boys 1t was up to them, He thought
that Councilman Campion's remarks
about having an officer go there
were far-fetched as, he saids we had
only one officer on duty during the
day and the rest of the city would
be left unprotected. He thought we
had an inadequate police force. Mr..
Stanton thought If the officer ac-
quainted the parents of the children
with the facts the matter would be
remedied.
Councilman Haines motion that
the mayors recommendation regard
ing the appointment of John Mackey
on the police force was lost, as is
told in the South Amboy column to-
day.
