tions:
Whereas, The railroads In New Jer-
sey have announced a large increase in
their Communication rates and fares
between points in New Jersey and
Manhattan and contemplate other in
creases between points within the
State, and
whereas, There are man. thousands
OF Newark's population who will be
most injuriously affected by his con-
certed action of the railroads, while
Newark and other municipalities will be
materially damaged in their interests;

rs sdested to investigate the law and
, See <what remedy can be had, and that
the Mayor be requested to communi-
cate with the authorities of other mu-
inequalities in this county with a view
to common action"
Former Majority Leader Joseph A.
Birkholz, of the Orange Council. is in
hearty accord with the movement to
prevent the increase in Communication
rates. and at the next meeting of the
Orange Council, Monday night, he will
introduce a resolution condemning the
intended action of the two railroads

last night that he would ask City u
sci William A. Lord to ascertain
whether or not 1t was within the pro-
vince of the Council to enjoin the rail-
roads for their proposed action in rails

Injustice in Orange.
"A railroad that refuses to stand for
their share of an assessment along
Scotland street" said Mr.. Lord. but
would have the city bear the total ex-
pense of its Improvement, and which
refuses to lay sidewalks along Its prop
erty fronting on Lincoln avenue, has
done enough injustice to the citizens of
Orange, without adding insult to injury
by increasing their communication rates,
I will be glad to introduce a resolution
to prevent this further indignity, and
will fight to the finish"
William D. Kearfoot, of 900 Orange
road, Montclair, has sent a commune
cation to the Interstate Commerce
Commission at Washington, calling the
attention of the commission to the pro-
posed advance of the Lackawanna
railroad. His communication calls the
