BOY CRAzED BY
TOOTHACHE LEAPS
THROUGH WINDOW
William COmst0ck Found in
Night Clothes Unconscious
on Stone StoOp.

Crazed with pain from an liberated
tooth 1S-year-old William Comstock
leaped through third stony bedroom
window at his home, lis Hudson
street, early today. and is now a
patient at the City Hospital. Physi-
clans say that If it is not found that
the youth sustained internal injuries
his escape was little short of miracu-
lous.
Roundsman Meyer, who was coming
through Hunterdon street shortly after
o'clock this morning, saw what
seemed to be large bundle Of bed
clothing falling from the top floor of
the Comstock house. He ran forward
and found the boy in his night cloth
ing, a comforter about him, lying in a
huddled heap on the stone stoop in
front of the house, unconscious.
Meyer hastily summoned an ambu-
lance and the boy was taken to the
City Hospital, where the effort to as
certain the exact extent of his in
juries has not as yea been entirely sue
cessful.

he did not think the company had the

to assume it.

Mr. Sommers's Brief.
Mr. Sommer's brief was much longer
than Mr. Bergen's and summarized the

until the present time. The brief said
in part
THE common law imposed upon the
common carrier the duty to carry for
a reasonable compensation and to re-
fra1n from unreasonable and unjust
discrimination in charges in favor of
one and against another, where the
circumstances and conditions we're
identic l.
THE duty so imposed does not in
hibit all discrimination. The discrimi-
nation which is inhibited is that which
is unreasonable or unjust and which
inures to the undue advantage of one
man in consequence of some injustice
inflicted on another.
"The statute here at issue, in the
respects here under consideration Is
merely declaratory of the common law
and works no change in the existing
condition.
Whether rate in given case is
unreasonable and whether given case
involves undue or unjust discrimina-
tion are questions of fact"
The brief then recited a number of
court decisions and opinions upholding
this contention.
Continuing, the brief says: "The spe-
'cial rate in question involves no un-
just or unreasonable discrimination. -
Mr.. Sommer then called the atten-
tion Of the court to the fact that the
constitution of the State commands
provision for the maintenance and sup

NEW YORK COMMISSIONER

Staten Island does not need water

That was the statement made BIZ
Henry S. Thompson, commissioner Of
water supply, gas and electricity for
New York city, today, Ind is borne
out by the fact that Mr. Thompson
has sent letter to Corporation Coun
Sc, A. r. Martin, of that city, asking
that proceedings be started to annul
the contract entered into between the
Hudson County Water Company and
the city of New York in 1906.
1t is in connection with this contract
and one with the war department that
the Hudson County Water Company
has repeatedly attempted to go over
the head of the State of New JERSEYS s
conservation laws.
DO Not Need Jersey Water.
In speaking of the matter today, Mr.
Thompson said.
I'VE have found out that all the
water needed for present purposes on
Staten Island can be obtained right on
the island and for that reason we have
no need of a supply from New Jersey
am not particularly concerned in the
legal status of the New Jersey COM
pany and have left that part of the
question to the citys legal depart

Continuing, Nj. Thompson said that

MARKET STREET
MERCHANTS HAIL
PAVING ACT VETO
McG0wan Bill Would Have De-
priyed Them of Voice in
Improvement.
BOARD OF WORKS WANTED
MEASURE TO BECOME LAW
May Now Yield to Public De.
mand and Give Wood
Block.

Now that the MCGOWAN paving bill
the question arises as to whether the
perplexing question of the paving of
Market street has been relieved or
strengthened.
The members of the Market Street
Business Mems Association are jubi-
liant today because of the vetoing of the
bill. On the other hand, Assemblyman
MCGOWAN, the sponsor of the bill, is
wondering why the Governor did not
give him a hearing on the bill before
vetoing it, and why he did not tell him
Monday that the pill would be vetoed
House bill 165 provided for the re-
paving of main thoroughfares by a
bond issue, and under this act the con-
sent of the property owners was not
needed as to the style of paving to be
used. Under the existing act known as
the Jersey City act, 81 per cent. of the
property owners can hold up the pave
ment of a street if they do not ap-
prove of the avement selected by the
city.
Board of Works Wants New Law.
The Board of Works was anxious to
pave Market street under the new act,
and the Market street men We're op-
posed to it because they wanted to
have voice in the matter Monday
noon Assemblyman MCGOWAN appeared
before the Governor and submitted a
list of bills not yet signed and was
given hearing on two of them. AL
though he talked with Secretary
Tumulty and Governor Wilson, he was
given no intimation, he says, that the
paving bill would be vetoed.
II do not consider that fair" said
Mr.. MCGOWAN. Il should at least have
been told that the bill would not go
through"
At O'clock Monday afternoon the
merchants and property owners in
Market street appeared before the
Governor. Frank Book spoke to him
and was told that the bill had already
been vetoed. He did not say why"
declared Mr.. Book today I'VE are
glad, however, that he did So
Eighty Per Cent. Favor Wood Block.
Mr.. Book said that it seemed at this
time that the street would at last be
paved with wood black. He and Will
lam A. Baker said that about so per
cent. of the owners in Market street
favor wood block, and that since the
Board of Works knows that the public
demands some sort of pavement they
will decide on wood block knowing
that all other forms would be opposed
No action on the matter will be taken
by the Board of Works until the meet
ing next week Several of the COM
missioners and Chief Engineer Sher-
rerd are not in the city and there viii
be no meeting today. President Mum
gle was asked for an expression OF
opinion on the subject, but said that
he would not talk about it until the

RECIPROCITY BILL j

Senate Finance Committee Ac.
cepts Root Amendment
on Pulp Wood.
PRES. TAFT PREPARES
TO FIGHT PROVISION
Senate to Receive Report on
Tuesday-Fight on Floor
Expected.

WASHINGTON, June S.-The Cana
dian reciprocity bill was acted upon
today by the Senate finance comm ,tee'
and will be reported Tuesday without
recommendation. The Root amendment
to the print paper and wood pulp pro-
vision was adopted by the committee
by vote of s to g..
An attempt to authorize an unfavor-
able report resulted in a tie vote. ard
another tie marked the effort to repor.
without recommendation before that
result was accomplished.
Wanted Bill Reported To-day.
Senator Williams, of Mississippi, then
moved that Chairman Penrose be au-
thorized to report the bill at today's
session of the Senate. but the motion
received only the votes of Messrs.
Williams. Stone and Kern. Several
minority reports are expected.
The Root amendment provides that
the paper and wood pulp section of the
bill shall not be in force until the
President shall have satisfactory evil
dence and shall make proclamation
that SUCH wood pulp, paper and board,
being the products of the United
States, are admitted into all of the
provinces of Canada free of duty"
Opponents of the amendment contend
that it raises the question of the Do
minion governments jurisdiction over
the provinces, and that its addition
will endanger the bill.
President Taft already has begun a
campaign looking to the defeat of the
amendment on the floor.
The vote was a surprise to members
of the Senate. 1t had been believed
that the finance committee would shift
responsibility to the Senate, leaving the
real fight, to be waged on the floor
The first modification offered at the
committees session today was one by
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, which
would have reduced, instead of remov-
ing, duties on live stock and farm
products. This was defeated without 81
roll call, and, the same fate was meted
out to the House free list bill An
amendment by Mr.. simmons to include
flour and meats in the free list also
was voted down.
Root Amendment
The Root amendment requiring the
admission of American wood pulp and
paper into Canada free of duty then
was voted into the bill without dis
cussion.
On a motion for a favorable report
the vote stood to g. and on the sue
ceeding motion for an unfavorable re-
port there was a tie of to I. The
same result at first followed motion
for report without recommendation.
but Senators Gallinger. Bailey and
Simmons who at first cast their bal
lots in the negative. ultimately changed
and thus allowed the bill to go to the
Senate without recommendation what,
ever, by vote of 10 to 4. Senator
johnson, of Maine, was absent.
