Board of Health Will Have
Open Meeting Tonight--
Public Invited.
PHYSICIANS TO ATTEND

A discussion on placarding and
quarantining for contagious and in
fectious diseases will be held at an
open meeting of the Board of Health
to be held in the council chamber Of
city hall tonight. There will be a
regular business session of the COM
missioners at o'clock, followed by
the public meeting, which will start
at o'clock. The physicians and
general public are invited to attend
and present their views relative to
the question in hand.
AS has been told, the health COM
missioners seemed divided on the
subject. Some. favor placarding, as
is being done at the present time,
while others are OF the opinion that
rigid quarantining would be an inn
provement in the manner of han
ding contagion The physicians have
been consulted ana the majority seem
to be in favor of rlacarding
At the regular business session to-
night the ordinances providing for
the quarantining of scarlet fever
cases and the licensing of barber
shops are scheduled to come up for
third and final readings. There is
likely to be some opposition raised
to the passage of the ordinance af-
fecting BARRIERS.

TRIAL RUN OF

new type of electric car was given
a trial run through this city this morn
ing over the tracks of the Central rail
road. The machine, which is some
thing entirely new for railroad service,
sped through this city at rapid rate.
1t came from Jersey City and was
bound southwark, passing through here
at 11:10 O'Clock.
The installation of such cars will rev.
olutionize railroad traffic. They are of
a high speed and light in weight.
Power for propelling purposes is gen
Grated by motor, by means of stor-
age battery. The car that passed
through here, which is one of the first
of its kind built, much resembles the
private combined engine and car of the
Central railroad company. Many local

7 G. CASE
DECISION
Majority Directors of Allan
tic Terra Gotta Company
Cannot Reduce Number.
VICTORY FOR MINORITY
Court Rules Thrt Agreement
of 1906 Must be 0beyed--
Twelve Directors.

An important decision in the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company has
just been handed down by Justice
Gerard, of the New York supreme
court, in which he holds that the
majority directors in the company
have no right to reduce the number
of the directors.
This is merely another chapter in
the fight started soon after the COM
bination was formed in which the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company, the
Perth Amboy Terra Gotta Company
and the Excelsior Terra Gotta Com
pany united under the name of the
Atlantic Terra Gotta Company.
This action was brought by A. II.
Bond, of New York, one of the
minority stockholders in the COM
bine. 1t is alleged by the minority
stockholders that an attempt was
made to deprive them of a represen-
tation on the board of directors of
the company by accumulative voting.
1t is charged that the directors in
the company attempted to deprive
the minority directors and stock
holders of their right of representa-
| tion on the board by reducing the
| number of directors from the pres
ent number of twelve. divided into
three classes of four each, to six,
divided into three classes of two
each, thus, 1t is declared by some of
those interested, making 1t impossi-
bile for the minority interests to elect
| director by accumulative voting.
The minority now has one director
| in each of the three classes, making
three in all.
The majority interest, 1t is de-
clared. called a special meeting of
the stockholders two days before the
annual meeting of the stockholders,
which was to be held January 21,
1910. The minority interests obtain
ed an injunction, and this injunction
was made permanent by Justice
Gerard, sitting in special term, in
the opinion just handed down.
Justice Gerard says the Atlantic
Terra Gotta Company is bound by
the terms of the agreement of De-
cember 20, 1906, under which stock
was deposited when the combine was
perfected, and he granted an injunc-
tion restraining the company from
reducing the number of directors
/ This is looked upon by the minori-
| ty as an Important decision and
unless reversed on appeal, will make
it impossible for the majority to
eliminate the minority interests.
1t seems that when the combine
was formed one of the agreements
was that "the certificate of incorpora-
tion of the new company shall fur
ther provide for cumulative voting
The agreement also provides that
there shall be twelve directors divid-
ed into three classes. The court sus-
tains the contention of the minority
interests that this agreement cannot
be violated.

AIM AT GOVERNOR FORT
Special to lie EVENING NEWS.

Specfdt TO me EVENING NE VS..
Trenton, March lit is becoming
quite evident around the state house
that il any public utilities legislation
is enacted this year it will merely be
law to extend the jurisdiction Of
the present state railroad board
over all public utility corporations.
1t may be regarded as practically
certain that the republicans win not
pass law providing for a separate
commission on this proposition, or
even one providing for the addition
OF more commissioners to the present
railroad board, as authorized by the
pending Scharff bill The opposition
to the creation of a new board has
its basis in the fact that the regular
republican will not stand for placing
more power in the hands of Governor
Fort.
OF course, IL a public utilities law
were enacted this year calling for the
appointment of commissioners, Gov
ernor Fort would have the naming
of the men, and with the existing
breach between the governor and the
republican leaders it stands to rea-
son that any Fort appointments
would not be made with regard for
the regular organization. The state
leaders well know this and hence
they have their knives out for the
public utilities proposition unless IL
can be handled in such manner that
the governor will not have a hand In

From another high source It Is
