RECOVER SUNKEN ANCHORS

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-Army en-
gineers in dredging Hampton roads
have recovered a quantity of equip
ment from the old monitor Puritan,
which was sunk there two years ago
during some ordnance tests. The
engineers pulled up two 4,0OO-pound
anchors, an 1,SO0-pound anchor and
some cable, the presence of which in
the roads, it was feared. would prove
an obstruction TO navigation. The
equipment has been turned over to
the navy department.

BOARD TO WATCH
|MHOFF SCHEME
BelIeviIIe Body Names Special
Committee to Look After
Legislation.

At it's last meeting of the year the
Belleville Board of Trade last night
appointed a special legislative COM
mittee to work against the location
of the Imhoff sewage disposal plant
in Soho. Freeholder-ele John II.
Waters, Councilman-elect DR.. e. o.
Cyphers and Richard c. Jones, presi-
dent of the board, were named.
The committee was named at the
suggestion of Mr.. Waters. who said
that. though the board had taken
the initiative in the fight. it was now
officially represented in the fight that
is being made. It was his idea that
a small committee could do more
efficient work.
To President Jones it appeared that
Mr.. Waters had something up his
sleeve" Mr. Waters admitted as
much, but said he was not sure of his
ability to carry out his ideas. He
thought that the appointment of q
special committee would not conflict
with the work of the standing legis-
lative committee.
Secretary Charles E. Crisp read a
communicate IN from James e. Wood
clerk of the Essex County Park
Commission, to the effect that as
coon as the finance committee re-
ceivad the money for BelleviDes
park the location would be deter
mined within a weeks time.
The propriety of selecting John r
Hardin, of the law firm of Pitney
Hardin & Skinner as counsel in the
fight against the Imhoff sewage plant
matter was questioned by ]. Harry
Coeyman. That some of the legal
flaws in the Beard bill had passed
his inspection and should have been
| discovered by him was Mr. Coey-
mans impression.
A request of John Hughes, of the
Newark inspection bureau, that he
be supplied with a copy of the reso-
luton for the new water system tc
be installed SO that he might adjust
the fire insurance rate, was granted

COLORADO FIGHT MAY

VIII Be Made.

Before many weeks FL Paso's atten-

cation congress, which viii o helu
this year from September 80 to October
3 at Salt Lake City, Utah. Of mO-e
than usual interest to west Texas will
be the meeting of irrigationists, since
progress on the Elephant Butte DAM
calculated to rejuvenate the FL Paso
valley, will without doubt be one of
the most important subjects to come
before the convention.
It has been an open secret for some
time that Colorado viii attempt some
move which would be unwelcOme to
New Mexico, Arizona and west Texas
in this matter It is natural that the
more northern state opposes the cree
ton of the huge government dam since
it will reclaim the waters for the Rio
Grande which were taken years ago by
Colorado bitches. So it is deemed i'm
pOrtant by those interested in the
southwest that this section be strongly
represented at the congress TO fight for
its rights
A letter from Arthur Hooker, secre-
tary of the congress, has been received
by c. A Kline, secretary of the FL PasO
chamber of commerce. Mr.. Hooker
wants to know the good word from
Texas, which, he says, has always sent

support appears strong for the attend
ance at Salt Lake.
