Wagting Public Funds.

Mr.. Bowman, while stating that the
specifications demaHded work iustifying
the high bids, is another experienced
road builder who smiles at the folly OF
building sixteen-thousand.d ollar-a
mile road at Heeia.
"a thoroughly satisfactory road could
be built through that section for fifty
cents a running foot, - he declares
''There is no sense whatever in build
ing the kind of a road that the com
mission has planned. All the thirty
Thousand for maeadam could be saved
and the fifteen thousand for oil need
not be spent.
''At Laie there is coral enough to
build a good road around tho whole
island, and then some This coral makes
an excellent and cheap road We
have had some at Waialua for twelve
years, as good a road as there is in
HONOLULU, and it would have stood all
the traffic and been as good rs win be
wanted at Heeia for many years To
come, The railroad runs close to this
coral supply and could have thrown q
branch TO Kahana to transport tho
road material.
fOf course, fancy road with sew
eral coats of oiled dressing costs more
but it viii be little better.
"Paele had been spending about if
teen thousand a mile on his roads il

figure was taken as standard Her,
Mr. Bowman grinned.

The engineers were of the opinion
that it was wiser to maintain the ca
pacity of the sewer the same as # the
ave eliminated towns had joined the
project The actual size of the fiume,
however, has been reduced.
The dropping of the five towns has
necessitated a change in the payment
of the cost of construction. The first
of these payments, amounting to $780,
900, is to be made November ! next
The last payment will be due october
1, 1914, and will amount to 81, 400 900.

paragraphs of the original contract
has "arisen by the failure of the cities
of Orange, East Orange, the towns of

The revised plans for the proposed

mitted to the fifteen municipalities
which have signed an agreement to
enter into the contract today by John
s. Gibson, the secretary Of the COM
mission. The figures show that through
the elimination of Orange. East Orange.
Montclair, Bloomfield and Glen Ridge,
who have refused to enter into the
project, the cost of construction will be
decreased 1t is said that most of these
towns will joip the project but that
East Orange is still very doubtful.
While there will be decrease in the
cost OF construction, the assessment on
the municipalities will be greater Had
the five Joined in the project 1t would
have meant a saving of about 81, 000
The difference between the saving on
the smaller sewer and the loss result
ing from the five municipalities re-
fusing to join the project amounts to
$1,1S7,74s
According to the amended plans, that
sum is apportioned among the fifteen
municipalities which have signed the
contract. This means that each will
pay lis per cent. more than was first
figured on. Under the two plans the
apportionment of construction cost and

Mohring, a butcher, of 81 Pierce street,
today caused Acting Judge Oehring TO
halt the judicial proceedings in the

ly stretched himself out, placed the
stem of clay pipe between his teeth
and proceeded to have a regular fit.
The few spectators gave him a wide

IN A BRIEF TELEGRAM
Visit Theatre in Manhattan and
Slip Away to HobOken
for Wedding.
Emmett and 1 were married this
afternoon. We are going away.

Emmett and l were married this
afternoon We are going away.
ALICE"
This brief telegram, received by Mr..
and Mrs. William =. Flanders, of 81
Beach street, East Orange, was all to
tell them that their daughter Miss
Alice Shaw Flanders, who is II years
old and remarkably pretty. had eloped
with Emmett Van Allen Pollard, son
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Murray, a
wealthy family residing at lis West
Thirty seventh street, New York. MT.
Pollard is also known as Emmett Muir
ray. his father having died when he
was a baby and his mother again
marrying.
Young Pollard is nephew of JamVs
j. Van Allen, the New York and New
port society man and connected with
the Astor family.
The wedding ceremony was per
formed by a justice OF the peace in
Hoboken last Monday afternoon, hut
it was not until that night that the
message was received by the young
woman's parents. The announcement
came as complete surprise.
The young man, who has just re-
turned from motoring trip to Calf
fornia and back has been attentive
to the young woman for several years.
He arrived home from California last
Friday and Immediately went to the
Flanders home to see the young
I,Iq fRfV. l.
called again Saturday and Sunday. Not
word about marriage was said 10
the parents of the then Miss Flanders.
MIR. Flanders called Mr. Pollard side
and said:
II have no objection to you calling
to see Alice, but she is too young to
have steady company. Hereafter you
must conflne your visits to once week.
In fact. ! think you are both too young
to think oI keeping company or enter
ing into an engagement.
What reply Mr.. Flanders made is not
known. He returned the next day,
Monday, In his automobile, and said
that he expected his parents, who have
been away some time, to return home.
He asked that Miss Alice be allowed
to accompany him. The permission
was given, and together with a sister
OF Mr.. Pollard's went to New York.
His parents did not return and they
decided to attend a matinee at a
theatre.
While witnessing the performance
the young woman said that she had a
bad headache and did not think that
she would be able to remain. Finally
1t was decided to leave Mr.. Pollard S
sister in the theatre while he and Miss
Flanders went out to get a headache
powder.
1t is presumed that they got into Mr..
Pollard's automobile and went directly
to Hoboken, where they were married.
Both the young people are children of
wealthy parents and are socially prom
inent.

Blaming her daughter entirely, Mrs.
John Hughes, of 81 Main street. Belle
vile, today told how her daughter,
Mrs Herman 2oeblie, attempted to
take her life last night.
MY daughter has been separated
from her husband for FIVE years. Yet
he is a fine man in every way. No
wonder she is unhappy, because 1t is
all her fault that they are separated. y
Mrs. Zoeblie, who Is "a years old, re-
turned to her parents home, where she
lived at O'Clock last night after
spending the day in Newark. The
yard of the Hughes home runs down
to the Passaic River.
Suddenly, without any warning
whatsoever, she sprang up and darted
toward the door.
Her father, summoned by the fran
tic shrieks of Catherine, Mrs Zoeb-
lies 1s-year- old sister, who realized
what her sister was about to do,
rushed from the house and pursued
her.
and daughter caught up with Mrs.
zoeblie. They flung themselves upon
her just as she was about to jump, and
dragged her back safely from the
rivers edge.
AT o'clock she was sitting In The
kitchen, apparently penitent for her
frantic endeavor to destroy herself.
But Catherine, watching her closely,
saw her hand steal out and clutch a

purposes.
With a sudden motion, she threw her
head back and lifted the bottle to her
lips. Catherine dartcd forward and
knocked it from her sisters hand.

NEWARK As PORT
IS NECESSITY To
MANUF FACTURER rs
Local Business Men viii Fight
Hard Against Any
Change.
-f.g-.--..--..--,
MANY DID NOT KNOW
THE REAL CONDITIONS
Have Imported Goods Through
New York Instead Of
Direct.

The possibility of Newark being dis
carded as a port of entry has stirred
the Indignation and civic pride OF the
local manufacturers to such a degree
that this subject is paramount today IN
Newark industrial circles James e.
REILLY. of P. REILLY & Son, leather man
ufacturers. today declared that the con-
solidation of this port with that OF
Perth Amboy would prove detriment
to the prosperity of this city and VIII
be fought to the end.
The proposition of eliminating the
port here has brought to light the
strange fact that many of the manu-
facturers have not known that New
ark Is a port of entry and that for
eign shipments can be billed direct to
this city. Those firms which have been
doing an importing business for many
years and handle the goods through
New York believe this practice is best
because II has been their custom and
apparently there would be no saving
of time or money even II billed direct
to Newark.
Collector Alfred NJ Dalrymple, when
asked If this was the condition of af-
fairs, declared that the manufactures
do lose time and money through hand
ling their shipments at New YORK
"They leave the entire thing In the
hands of the New York brokers' ex-
planned the collector, land when they
receive the goids they do not take
into account the item of storage
charges. which invariably appears on
the brokers' bill. IF the goods were
billed right to Newark there would
be no storage charges.
"The merchandise. or whatever 1t
happens TO be, Is transferred here by
freight from New York and can be ex-
amined by the local customs officials
either at the railroad station or at
the company's plant If they have a
track switch there. The cost of shipping
the goods from New York to Newark
is borne by the consignee, of course,
but there are no storage charges and
no delay. And the storage charges
amount to a pretty figure sometimes y
Many of the manufa cturers have ex-
pressed surprise at finding out the true
state of affairs and are determined to
assist Newark by having their foreign
goods sent directly to this city. James
NJ. Reilly. secretary of the Board Of
Trade, declared that by putting the
situation before the public as the Eve
ming STAR has done will accomplish
lot of good. While he does not be-
lieve the port here will be abandoned,
the board will use its influence to pre-
vent such a move.

Amended Original



1t is thus shown that under the mod
flied plan the cost of the work will
be increased in the case of each of the
remaining fifteen municipalities. AS
Newark must pay the largest percent
age of the cost its share of the increase
is, of course, heavier than that of any
of the other places. The increase, so
far as this city is concerned, will
amount to 1851, 1856.
The next largest increase is charged
to Paterson. That city under the new
plan will have to pay $685. GAL more than
the original estimate In other cases
the increases are as follows Belleville,
s14, 461; Nutley, 0,999; Passaic, $70,71o;
Acquackanonk, $14,22O: Garfield, $4,97S;
Wellington. s1,532 East Rutherford.

Harrison, $25,S77; East Newark, $S,479.
Allotment of Capacity.
While the allotment of capacity is
the same under the new plan as 1t was
under the old one the percentage is
changed little. AS the capacity for
the remaining fifteen communities have
been figured out, ii is as follows:

HEBREW ORPHAN
ASYLUM KIDDIES
TO GO ON OUTING.

"Gee. but won't we have bully time
tomorrow. A boat ride lots to eat and
plenty of milk! And a day at the sea-
shore, tool" That is what the little
inmates of the Hebrew Orphan Asylum
are saying today. for tomorrow they
will be the guests of the STAR on an
outing to Highland Beach, The little
folk are much excited and are devising
ways of having the best OF times.
The outing yesterday for the inmates
of st. Mary's Orphan Asylum was a
success in every way. The tots en-
joyed every minute of the day, which
at the beach was ideal. They had
plenty of milk and rolls on the boat
and when the steamer returned to
Newark there was only a little of the
supply left.
The last of the general outings will
take place next Monday. but during the
week there will be several outings for
poor mothers and Gelr children. So
it is not too late yet to aid in this
noble work of charity, which has saved
the lives Of many babies during the
summer.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
denied today that 1t had any intention
of reducing Its force in the Harrison
repair shops or any other of its shops.
On the contrary, Ivy w. Lee, head of

said today that the company is increas-
ing its force of workmen in the antic-
ipation of an increase in business.
The eport that the railroad had sent
out notices to heads of departments to
redLae the force of workmen came
from Philadelphia. Mr.. Lee said that
it was absolutely without foundation.
