Special to the EVENING NEWA

South Amboy, Aug. 2:-Yester-
day, as the team of a local business
man was rounding the corner at

count of the trolley track being
much higher than the level of the
rail, the wheel caught on the tracks
and was torn from the wagon. AS
the wheel was held in place by
what is termed a Inch pin, a citizen

~deavoring to find the missing pin
was rather astonished to see the
driver of the team pull a pin from
his vest pocket, at the same time
saying: Il always carry an extra
pin in my pocket for emergency"
Last night his employer called on
the NEWS correspondent saying it
was being circulated about the city
that the driver had creased the
wagon and forgotten to return the
pin to its proper place. He said this
was not SO, as his driver had ,spok-
en- truthfully as they always carried
extra pins In case of accident.

THE PLACE IN CONDITION
gpsciaI to the EVENING NEWS.

South Amboy, Aug. 2:-For the
last three weeks there has been a
very dangerous place at the juno
ton of Broadway and Main street,
caused by excavating between the
tracks of the Public Service Railway
Company. That no one vas disabled
or killed was not attributable to
good Judgment Or ca%refulness by the
trolley company. Yesterday morn
ing the attention of the mayor was
called to the danger existing at this
point and In less than two hours, by
his efforts, this point was made safe
for travel. We believe If the may
or's hands were not tied up by law,
many of the existing evils in our
city that now exist would be quick
ly remedied.
