are to be considered. and suggested
that all the parties Interested should
get together With the freeholders.
James b. Vrcdenburgh, counsel for the
Pennsylvania railroad. favored the

George W. Tonkins. OF the New

DARLINGTON, R%ACONTEUR,
AMUSES MAROONED FOLK.
Harrison Car Barn Master En-
tertains Hackensack Family.

Fowl stories were told at the Harri-
son car barns last night and a farmer
and MS family, who reside in Hacken-
sack. would have found the night a mo-
notonous one had It not been for the
good storytelling qualities OF Depot
Master Arthur Darlington.
The family. bound for H~ackensack,
was stalled for an hour in q car on
Harrison avenue about midnight. A
cable that burned out at the Bridge
street bridge was responsible fer the
power being shut off. When the car
containing the Hackensackers finally
reached Believille turnpike, Arlington,
it vas found that the last car had gone
over the Hudson river line for the
night.
The Public Service crew turned back
with the passengers and went to the
Harrison car barns. The stranded
family was wondering what might be
done to pass the hours Of the morninng
when Darlington. who was a clerk at a
recent chicken show, held at Madison
Square Garden. came to the rescue ana
went (no, be didn't crow over some of

Found Dead on Couch by
Daughter-in-Law.

Two wears to the day, and possibly
Magner. OF 107 South Fourth street,
Harrison. was found dead. Heart dis
ease was the probable cause of his sud
den end. Another strange coincidence
is the fact that within o stones throw
of the Magner home, Mrs. Bridget
Reynolds, OF 412 Warren street, was
found dead in the kitchen of her home a
few days G
Mr.. Magner. who resided with his
sen, William Magner, laid down on a
couch in the parlor of their home about
9 o'clock last night. He was seem-
ingly in the best Of health, and made
M complaint. When it came time for
the other members of the family to re-
tire they did not wish to disturb him,
IS he was sleeping soundly. He was
still asleep apparently when the fam
lily arose this morning u no ef-
fort Yves made to awaken him.
Magner's daughter-in-Iaw, about 0
O'Clock, thought 1t was time to call
him. He made no response and when
she looked closely at him she found he
was dead. The police were notified and
DR.. A.. A. Mulligan was called in. The
physician saw the mar had been dead
several hours. and gave heart disease
as the probable cause of death. Dep

the different States of the Union with
respect to foreign corporations mako

No Corporation Refuge.
TO the suggestion that this proposal
of Federal incorporation for industrial
combinations is intended to furnish
them a refuge in which to continue In
dustrial abuses under Federal protec-
ton, it should be said that the measure
contemplated does not repeal the Sher-
man antitrust law n is not to be
framed SO as to permit tho doing of
the wrongs which 1t is the purpose of
that law to prevent, but only to foster
a continuance and advance of the high
est industrial efficiency without permit
ting industrial abuses.
Such a national incorporation law
will be opposed, first, by those VIC be-
lieve that trusts should be completely
broken up and their property destroyed.
1t will be opposed, second. by those
who doubt the constitutionality of such
Federal Incorporation, and even if it
is valid, object to it as too great
Federal Capitalization. 1t Will be OPP
posed. third, by those who will insist
that a mere voluntary incorporation
like this will not attract to its accept
ance the worst of the offenders against
the antitrust statute and Who will
therefore propose instead of it a sys-
tenn of compulsory license for all
Federal corporations engaged in inter-
state business.
Let US consider these objections in
their order. The government is now
trying to dissolve some of these COM
binations, and lit is not the intention
of the government to desist in the least
degree in it's effort to end those COM
binations which are today monopolizing
the of this country; that
where it appears that the acquisition
and concentration of property go to the
extent of creating a monopoly or of
substantially and directly restraining
Interstate commerce. 1t is not the in
tention of the government to permit
this monopoly to exist under federal in
corporation or to transfer to the pro-
tecting wing Of the Federal Govern
ment O. state corporation now violating
the Sherman act. But it is not. n
should not be, the policy of the gov
eminent to prevent reasonable concen-
tration Of capital which is necessary to
the economic development of manu-
facture, trade and commerce.. This
country has shown q power of economi-
cal production that a astonished the
world, and has enabled us to compete
with foreign manufacturers in many
markets. 1t should be the care of the
government to permit such %concentra-
ton of capital while keeping open the
emu of individual enterprise, and
the opportunity for a man or corpora
ton with reasonable capital to engage
in business. IL we would maintain our
present business supremacy, we shoul
give to Industrial concerns an opportu-

ANOTHER SETBACK FOR

unanimously refused to grant permits
sion TO the company TO lay its big main

New York and New Jersey Water COM
pany, acting on orders from Turner

plying with the requirements of the
borough ordinance, and last night
Mayor William B~randenburg called a
special meeting to consider the appli-
cations.
After much discussion the Council
decided not to grant the permits unless
the company agrees to the terms given
to it some weeks q namely. to guar
antee that no water would be sent out
