Site Selection Be Left to
Playground Commission.

Residents of the Third ward are to-
day still in ignorance as to where the
new bathhouse promised them VIII DC
located or when they will get it Al
he meeting of the Board OF works
Yesterday Commissioner Kraemer tried
10 bring the matter to an issue ou'
was not successful. AT present there
are two sites available. one at the cor
Nor of Charlton aud Montgomery
streets. 75x125 feet. to cost s2S,5OO. Inc
other site is at 1879, POI and 2OS Prince
street. a lot 75x100. which can be hao
for s11,5 90.
The Democratic members, commas
sioners Kraemer and Ryan, as well az
The aldermen of the ward, are in favor
of the Prince street site as being bet
ter located and much cheaper, Inc
other three members, Commissioners
Denman Mungle and O'Connell, insist
thai the Charlton street property Is the
better because of light and air that a
corner will permit. There is still q
deadlock over the affair.
Assemblyman Michael Leveen was
present n suggested that the mat
ter be laid over until h bill in the
Legislature, which will transfer the
lighthouses from the Board of Works
to the Playground Commission, is
passed.
VIII Inspect Both Sites.
The. matter was postponed until next
week. In the meantime an Inspection
will be made of both sites.
A notice of intention to wien
Mechanic street n a resolution ask
ing that the Common Council appro-
pirate $3.50, 600 for the work We're passed.
This follows the passing of Assembly
bill No. us permitting Newark to spend
81, 200, 900 to widen main t~horeughtares.
The National State Bank will be notl-
lied of the intention of the city and
asked to change its plans for the new
building on the south side of Mechanic
street at Broad. The plans are now
on file in the building department.
The widening Of Mechanic street Will
do much to relieve the congestion OF
traffic in Market street and make a
much-needed artery through which We
hicles may travel.
The Essex Trades Council was rep
resented by John r. Mclean, Hugh
Reilly and Henry Hebeler. They asked
that the city give its contracts for fire
hydrant castings to union firms in
stead of the a. p. Smith Company.

An interview with George Edwardes re-

contains an interesting comment on the
management OF the present day theatre.
Mr. Edwardes said: II am convinced that
half the ills from which our modern theatre
is suffering can he traced to the easygoing
fashion I'm which really important matters
are delegated TO minor officials. That is
one OF the results of turning these buildings
into limited companies. Why. what is the
secret OF the success of men like Sir Her
bert Tree and Sir George Alexander If II Is
not the watchful control which both have
always exerted over their playhouses? The
same moral is pointed by the prosperity of
the houses run by Michael Gum I'm Dublin.
Howard and Wyndham i'm Edinburgh ana

were personages, and attendance at their
theatres became an act Of loyalty 10
