C. R.. R. TO USE
HUDSON TUBE
Entrance TO New York via
Old Pennsylvania Station.

The New York Central railroad,
~accordingg to information from a
source of the highest authority, has
signed a contract with a New York
construction company for $1,000
900, which will give it underground
service through the Hudson tunnels
with New York by the way Of the old
Pennsylvania station at Jersey City.
According to the report, the com
pany will change its tracks at the
Van Nostrand avenue station and
the present Communipaw station SO
that it's passengers can use the Hud-
son tunnels.
During the last two years the COM
pany has been considering plans
whereby 1t could secure a tunnel SER
vice, but 1t was found that even q
connection between its present ter
minal and that of the Hudson tun-
nels would cost 100000, while
the traffic from the one road would
not pay the interest on the invest
ment. The idea of making this con-
n~ection link was therefore abandon
ed, and instead the change of tracks
will be made. This, It is believed,
will meet every requirement.
The present terminal at Jersey
City will continue to be used for
some local service, as well as freight,
but the bulk of the traffic, according
to report, will go by way Of the new
route through the Hudson tunnels.
Towns along the Jersey City Central
have not built up so rapidly as those
having the benefits of tunnel service,
and for this reason the New Jersey
Central has been anxious to make
some arrangements with other roads
running into New York.
Reports somewhat Of q similar
character have been made from time
to time, but officials of the New Jer-
sey Central have generally denied
everything. Only recently W. G. Bes-
Ter, vice-president and general man.
ager of the road, declared that Just
as soon as the company could make
arrangements patrons of the road
would have the benefits Of the tun-
mel service. He also called atten-
ton to the fact that 1t seems impos-
sible to make any satisfactory ar
engagements with w. G.. McAdoo for
building a tunnel connection, owing
to the expense, but added that the
company had not abandoned hope.
The report that a contract for S1,-
500,0 had been signed would indi-
cate that the company has decided
on It's plans for the future. 1t Is
also said on the best of authority
that the company will replace the
old station In Broad street, Newark,
with a handsome and commodious
building which will afford every con-
venience for the comfort Of It's pa
irons.

RAILROAD SIDE
OF UTILITY LAW
Vice President BesIer Talks
to State Editors,

Asbury Park, May 1:-Proprietors
and editors Of the publish
ed along the lines of the Central Rail
road of New Jersey in Pennsylvania
and this state, were the Asbury Park
guests of the Central Railroad Satur-
day on the annual outing arranged for
the newspaper men each year by the
company. There were about 200 news
paper men and their families In the
party, and they spent an enjoyable
day. The special train conveying the
party here, arrived shortly before noon,
and after a ride around the city on
five special trolley cars, luncheon was
had at the Coleman House. An exhi-
bition drill by the Asbury Park fire de-
partment served to amuse the guests
before luncheon, and an automobile trip
through this and one or two n~eighbor-
ing towns, wound up the day.
W.. c. Hope, general passenger agent
of the Central, was POSTMASTER at the
luncheon. The speakers were Mayor
I. Frank Appleby, who extended to
the newspapermen a hearty welcome; J.
L. Lyle Kinmouth, editor of the As
bury Park Evening Press, who made
the response, and w. G.. Besler, vice
president of the Central, who made an
address in which he alluded in strong
terms to what he styled the "Injus-
tice of the Pass System"
transportation furnished to officers Of
panies are required under the law to
provide" Nj. Besler said, owe have
Forwarded on official request from the
secretary Of the State of New Jersey
233 passes. Yet the very stockholders
who W the property are prohibited
from receiving and travelling on passes.
"I have not been able to convince
myself that railroads should be called
upon to furnish this free transportation
to the Legislature and to other pub
lie officials of the State of New Jer-
sey. If these passes which are issued
were used exclusively and conscien-
tiously in the services Of the State
there might be a better excuse for
them, but the fact Of the matter is
that the passes are used for commercial
purposes, communications and every time
the holder wants to travel. One OF
the first questions asked by a certain
politician who had just been elected
was when do I get my passf'
81 do not believe that it is fair or
Just that the State Of New Jersey
should call upon the railroads, which
pay the bulk of the taxes within the
State, for free transportation for its
officials, any more than a manufaetur-
ing concern should be asked to dis
tribute its products gratis. The state
is well able to pay for the transpor-
+o+;on ~ its officials. and there Is no
good reason why it should not do so.
Because of the enactment of the Of the
Public Utilities bill, the Central Rail
road will not be able to give the news
paper men these outings in the flu
ture."
This is the last outing of this kind
to be given by the railroad company as
the new public utility law, which goes
into effect today, forbids excursions of
this kind.
