Three Companies Meet With
South Amboy Officials.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
South Amboy, April 24:-At least
thirty poles along Broadway will be
taken down before the street is paw
ed. This was decided at a confer
ence between the officials of the
Public Service Railway company,
Jersey Central Traction company,
New York Telephone company and
Mayor Michael Welsh and Council
man O'COnnor in the city hall at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The meeting was called to order
by Mr.. O'Connor who is chairman of
the street committee of the city
council. E. J. Dunno. superintend-
ent of the distributing department
or the Public Service, said that his
concern would ignore the resolutions
as they were not worth the paper
written upon. Mr.. O'Connor then
assured Mr.. Dunno that an ordin-
ance would be passed compelling the
work to be done.
Mayor Welsh explained that mas
much as the street was to be paxed
1t was almost a necessity to take
down many of the poles in changing
the curbing. Mr.. Dunno finally con-
sented to enter into an agreement
for the removal of unnecessary
poles.
The session lasted until $50
O'Clock when the city officials with
the representatives of the concerns
and Samuel j. Mason, city engineer,
went over the ground and mapped
out the work. 1t was decided to have
all the poles set in uniform space
and location and those which will be
allowed to remain would have to
shaved and painted.
H. e. Smith. engineer for the New
York Telephone company, and Will
lam McHarg, of the law department
of the same concern, informed Mr..
O'Connor that their firm was about
to take down their single wires on
Broadway and run their lines on a
single cable which makes it easy to
remove many of the poles. J. p.
johnson, acting superintendent of
the Jersey Central Traction com
pany, went W. the line for that
concern. The detailed inspection
ended at S O'Clock and a plan CT the
poles which will be taken down to-
gether with those that are 10 be
lett standing will be submitted to
s.r. pConnoc t. ~ laid before the
Souncil.r
