That the relations between Mrs.

Vice. Chancellor Emery today. At the

with the views held by Chief Engineer
Morris R. Sherrerd and the second was
slightly different. The Adams plan al
tered the curse of the canal and
brought IL closer to the heart of the
city.
Following this the mayor asked that
the Board of Works. the engineers, the
Board of Trade and all interested
bodies discuss the plan of general rec
lamation and improvement. Mayor
Haussling made this an issue In his
campaign.
Owing TO the fact that the comp
troller last year did not want to float
the s1o0.G00 bond issue on ccoun of
the condition of the money market,
nothing further was done until this
year, when the bonds were successfully
sold and the six engineers engaged to
again &c owe the plans. Five OF these
engineers receive q fee Of $500, and
Colonel Blank is paid $1,000.

STATES ATTORNEY
SOUNDS WANING
over CANAL BILL
State May lmperil Rights by
Abandonment OF Part OF
Morris Canal.
IspseIal to the Newark start

TRENTON, March 3.-There will be
piac.a upon the DISK of every legislator
next Monday night q communication a
sort OF an Official warning oy the S,a {
With regard 10 the Morris canal auan-
dolment pill.
Il viii be signed by Aforementioned al
Edmund Wilson and former Supreme
Court Justice Bennett Van Syckel, VINO
ASSISTED the encouragement in the
chancery suit that resulted in the
famous basin decision.
The document viii tell that the aban-
donment of only a Tart or the canal
viii imLeril the valuable rights which
the State has In the canal, which have
been established SO clearly In the suit
against the Lehigh Valley railroad, les
see of the canal.
Reviewing the recent decision hand
ed down by e-Chancellor Stevens,
the conn u~nication says 1t is appar-
ent that the Use of the Dig basin for
railroad operations was an unlaw ful
diversion of the basin from it's au-
thorized uses, and therefore the rail-
o a can establish no claim against the
State for moneys expended to adapt
the basin to any Illegal use. Counsel
for the State also rays the quest on
arises whether, by the continued non
use of the canal for it's legitimate pur-
poses, the railroad has forfeited its
right to the entire canal, so that the
State may take 1t now without COM
pensation to the railroad, or whether
the State should enjoin the further IL
legal use of the property oy the rail-
road or should require It 20 nay for he
past use of the canal or part OF 1t for
railroad purposes.
1t is pointed out by counsel that as
the Chancery suit involved only the IT,
tie to the fee in the big basin, these
questions could not be determined in
that case. Whether the entire co.,
troversy between the State and the
railroad as to the canal should be made
the object of a conference In order to
reach an amicable settlement or should
be made the subject of further litiga-
ton is a question which counsel leave
for the Legislature to determine.

TEMPE SAFE BLOWERS
DID BUNGL|NG JOB
George Kirkland, Who Finished It.,
Says They Are Mighty Poor
Workmen.

Mention has been made in these
columns of a bungling job of attempt
ed safe cracking in the depot at Tempe
last Friday night, as the result of
which the safe was merely battered up
so nobody but an expert could get into
it, George Kirkland of this city was
appealed to Saturday evening by the
railroad company, to finish the work
the burglars had given up, as the safe
was full of railroad tickets which the
company needed in its business. Mr..
Kirkland, who is a professional day
light craftsman, who works for the
owners and not for the thieves, and
who generally does his work well, ac-
complished the task assigned to him
i'm an hour or so Sunday morning be-
fore church time.
Mr.. Kirkland, commenting last even
ing on the operations of the would-be
thieves, says ii was the most bungling
job he had ever seen and they must
have been not only amateurs but not
very observing ones at that. One can
not help holding sneaking respect for
a good mechanic, even if he be a safe
blower, but there is only contempt for
such untutored awkwardness as the
Tempe thugs exhibited. Mr.. Kirkland
says he cannot imagine what plan they
were working on by which they might
have gained admission to the strong
box. Appearances indicate that they
were trying to open it by simply ham
mering it down with a sledge, though
they had also drilled hole into the
door in the rear o. the combination
and had threaded the hole for some
purpose
The hammering of the door had
bruised it up terribly, blow after blow
being struck where it could not have
done any good in the nature of things.
The dial was knocked off, and, as an
illustration of the amateurish work. the
ornamental knobs had been carefully
unscrewed from the hinges as though
that would weaken the door.

Such was the state of affairs when,
through some unexplainable, unknow-
able and unavoidable mishap, the
members of the party fell into the
ditch and a fusilade of gurgles broke
the Sabbath stiffness.
The conduct of Mr.. Barker in this
emergency was remarkable fer gall
lantry, for unmindful of his own safe
" he rescued his fellow unfortunate,
and then helped DIR. Godfrey to climb
the bank with the partner of his woes.
There they stood. shivering. bedrag-
gled, and full of trouble, with the ap-
pearance of the world all changed. DR..
Godfrey delivered a brief lecture on
the measures which ought to be re-
sorted to to resuscitate a person partly
drowned, and regretted the fact that
no one had even approached the stage
of drowning which would allow him to
give a demonstration of his lecture.
Mr.. Barker, always courteous and
obliging, offered to fall into the water
again and allow himself to be partly
drowned, but after a moments con-
sideration DR.. Godfrey replied that in
case of mishap his death would be a
terrible loss to art. WhereupOn the
ladies laughed. for Mr.. Barker's talent
as a musician is well known. With
the laugh the appearance of things
changed, and it was evident that the
party would soon be carried back to
town for at this moment a $4,000 Brush
runabout drove up. chauffeured by a
rising young architect of the city
known to his friends as Calamity Fitz-
hughes, who learned to drive a car
during his long residence in Paris.
where he served as private secretary
to Alphonse Daudet. Fritz HOlmquist
of the city engineers office occupied
the car with Mr.. FitZhughes, and as
soon as they saw their friends in such
a predicament the two young men gave
up their seats to the unfortunates and
drove them back to town.
1t is not known what condition the
elegant basket seated surrey was in
when it was returned to Mr.. Bennitt,
but il is understood that it was not
badly smashed. Mr.. Barker sneeZed
severely on the return trip, but has
developed nothing of a cold worth men
tiOning, and all the members of the
party are doing well. They plan an
other drive for next Sunday.
