South Amboy, April 80:--A spe-
cial meeting Of the Board of Trade
was called by the chairman and con-
yened In the city hall last evening.
A communication was read by the
secretary from steamboat company
In New York offering to establish a
steamboat line for freight and pas
sengers to and from New York to
this city.
In reply to the invitation extended
by the Board of Trade to the New
York and New Jersey Steamboat
Company for representatives to be
present at the special meeting last
night, the communication stated they
would not be represented, but that
they would be In better position to
confer with the Board of Trade af-
ter May T. The secretary said that
,Messrs. Ward and Hopkins, of the
New York and New Jersey Steam
boat Company, called on him this
week and said the company was not
patronized by the people Of the city
and that the freight carried for
South Amboy in three weeks only
amounted to $40, and gave him to
understand unless the volume Of
business was increased the boat
would be discontinued. In bringing
the matter under discussion of the
lack of patronage, one member of
the board thought the company had
not done the best they could, that
the slackness of work was a hard
blow to South Amboy and that the
merchants of the city, on account of
this, the volume of business being
done was much less, and therefore
the shipments of goods were equally
less. M. Kaufman said he had been
down to the landing yesterday, when
the boat came in and the amount
OF freight unloaded was SO small
that no one would run a boat under
such circumstances. He said he be-
lieved the company was disposed to
do the right thing and that the mer-
chants ought to do right also. Some
one made the remark that the farm
ers and truckers in the vicinity
would be only too glad to have boat
service for the shipment of their
goods, but that the business they
could give the boat would not be
available to any great extent for
some time yet.
In closing the session a resolution
was passed authorizing the commit
tee on boats to confer with the man
agement of the steamboat company
in reference to the matter of secur-
ing a larger volume of freight.
