McCran Anti-Diversi0n Bill to
Be Reported Favorably in
Spite of His Efforts.
WILL CONTINUE HIS
BUTTONHOLING TONIGHT
Former Foe of Corporations Has
Been Working Hard for
Old Opponent.

Former Senator Everett Colby's first
experience as corporation lobbyist
has not thus far been crowned with
success In spite of his earnest eff
forts to nullify the McCran BILL which
prohibits diversion of all subterranean
waters from this State, the measure
will be reported favorably in the House
at Trenton tonight by Chairman Wal
ter E. Edge, of the committee on 1u-
dietary, speaking for four of the FIVE
members of his committee.
Mr.. Colby, hired by the Gillespie steel
pipe interests. has been hard at work
trying to have the bill amended in COM
mittee SO that the Hudson County
Water Company might divert 100000
gallons of water a day for the next
twenty years. He has been associated
with former Attorney General Robert
H. McCarter and former Governor John
w. Griggs in these efforts.
It is understood that Mr.. Colby Will
be In the ranks of the lobbyists at
'renton again today, buttonholing the
swmalxers and endeavoring to per-
suade them to let his clients be ex-
cepted in carrying out the great scheme
of conserving the States water supply.
When senator, Mr.. Colby was one
of the most bitter opponents Of the
water-snake,'' and the East Jersey
interests are particularly pleased to
have him in the forefront of their
paid supporters. AS Albert c. Wall, Of
Jersey City, put it, there Is a twinkle
in the Scotch eye" of the man in whose
anne Mr.. Colby appears, as he realizes
that he has ''his own reformer' to
speak for him.
AS has been told on numerous occa-
sions, the McCran bill was drafted par
ticd1arly to prevent the very diversion
which Mr.. Colby and his associates
seek to except from It's operation. The
Hudson County Water Company, one
of the heads or the hydra, has sunk
more than thirty artesian wells at
Bellevilles sucking the water Of the
Passaic through the ground to get
around the decision of the Court OF
Errors and Appeals that there could be
no diversion of surface waters under
the Bachelor law. 1t is the hope Of
the East Jersey company, like the bear
in the fairy tale, to get the water from
these wells into Staten Island as an
opening wedge in upsetting the plans
of the conservationists, and selling New
Jersey water in New York State.

DEAD animal
LAW. SCORED BY
SUPREME COURT
Sweeping Verdict Sets Aside
Conviction of Driver and
Nullifies Ordinance.
Especial to the Newark Start

TRENTON, Feb. 21.-The conviction
and ordinance under which William f.
Kellam, a driver for the James N. Ar
buckle Company was sentenced, was set
aside by the Supreme Court today. The
ordinance provides that mo person or
persons, without the written permission
of the mayor. shall skin or bury any
domestic animal which shall die within
the city OF Newark from accident or
disease, or shall carry or transport any
such dead domestic animal. except in
carts or other vehicles especially
licensed for that purpose, under the
penalty of s25 for each and every
offense.'
Kellam was arrested when he was re-
moving dead horse in a wagon spe-
cially built for removing dead animals.
The wagon, however, was not licensed.
"Such a drastic interference with the
ordinary rights of private property re-
quires some good legal reason for its
support" says the opinion.
Its effect, If upheld In the present
case, will be to subject a legitimate
business, which as the testimony
shows is, when properly conducted, in
no way detrimental to the, health or Of
fensive to the senses of the public, to
the supervision of the license depart
ment of Newark, and perhaps compel
the Arbuckle company to discontinue
transporting its own property in its
own wagons and employ such outside
hired wagons as that department sees
fit to license.
I'VE can discover no color of author
ity, for the enactment of so sweeping
prohibition either under the licensing
powers of the city of Newark or un-
der the power given for the preserva-
tion of public health or the suppression
or prevention of nuisances, nor do we
perceive any other municipal power to
which the ordinance in question may
be referred ts
