FINAL PASSAGE
OF CANAL BILL
Senate Adopts Radical Meas
ure--vots Is AT to 10.

Washington, Aug. 10.-Disregarding
Great Britain's protest against free
tolls for American ships, the senate
passed the Panama canal bill by a vote
Of Al to 10. The bill as 1t leaves the
senate contains also radical legislation
affecting several of the big railroad
systems Of the country.
The bill will compel the enforcement
by the Southern Pacific Railroad COM
pany Of its steamship lines If these
boats are to go through the Panama
canal. The Southern Pacific has mil
lions Of dollars invested in shipping
and has been making plans for an e1-
ing Of the great waterway on the 18TH
mus.
Further, the legislation which
energies from the senate puts in jeop-
ardy the New Haven roads extensive
holdings In coastwise lines and the
holdings Of the New York Central and
other railroads In shipping on the
great lakes. Many millions Of dollars
are invested by the New Haven In
the lines which ply up and down
Lond Island sound. President Mellen
Of that road has testified that 1t would
be impossible to dispose Of these lines
under favorable conditions. The In
terests Of the railroads in the lake
shipping Is almost as extensive.
Railroads May Be E%njoined.
The Panama canal bill, as 1t came
from the house, contained a prohibit
ton against the ownership or control
by any railroad Of a steamship line
and fixed July 1, 1914, as the date in
which this control should have passed
absolutely from the railroads. The
senate modified this house provision so
that 1t would apply only to ships Cop
Grated through the Panama canal"
In lieu Of the fat prohibition which
the house had against all ownership
the senate also adopted an amendment
empowering the interstate commerce
commission to determine on It's own
motion whether the ownership by any
railroad of steamship lines was preju-
diclal to the public interests and to
compel, II necessary, the divesting of
the steamship holdings.

CHANGE GRADE
OF The ROAD
Trolley Company Improve
Line at Freneau.
Special to tho EVENING NEWS.

CpcC1ut 10 ITO 1bDNfNt NE ~ q.
Freneau, August 10.-A special
meeting Of the Board of Freeholders,
held at the Aberdeen Inn, Matawan,
Tuesday afternoon, at which were Dr.
rector Corliss and Freeholders DAILY
and Wyckof. MI. Todd, represent
ing the Jersey Central Traction Com
pany, asked for the privilege of
changing the grade Of the trolley
tracks when the new rails are laid,
as it was two inches low in spots and
1T was desired to make 1t uniform
throughout. The consent vas grant
ed and County Engineer Cooper was
instructed to give the desired grade
lines.
The trolley company has started in
to give Matawan n of the best road
beds in the country. The new rails
now being distributed along Main
street are sixty feet long and weigh
LOO pounds each. They are eight
inches deep, which is two inches
deeper than the old ones. The old
ties are to be removed and new ones
to take their place. Before these
are laid the roadbed will be deepened
and filled in with eighteen inches of
broken stone and rolled with a ten
ton steam roller now on the Freneau
end. The work of replacing the rails
will be done with as little inconven-
fence as possible. The rails have
been torn up to the Old Bridge road
and after this part is completed an
other section will be taken in hand,
and SO on until all the rails of the
railroad crossing are laid.
1t is expected that It will take at
least six weeks to finish the work
and that the Matawan people as we'll
as the Freneauites will be more than
pleased with it when done. The
change will have cost the company
approximately $4,000 when com
pleted.

DRAIN OUTLET
CAUSES TALK
Start Work at Report to
Complete 1t.
Special to the EVENING NEW1.

Keyport, Aug. 1O:-Work was
started on Thursday of this week to
complete the drain outlet which
opens on the Pavilion Beach proper
ty into the bay. Considerable talk
was occasioned earlier in the sum-
mer over the change of the course
Of this drain, which had always run
in a nearly straight line from under
Front street to First, under First
and SO on across the beach property
into the bay.
During alteration in the spring
THE mouth of the drain was turned
at an angle which ran its contents
directly upon the bathing grounds
of Mrs. M. Gross, who conducts the
boating and bathing business in
First street. Mrs. Gross was natur-
ally greatly agitated by the nuisance
which always had caused her more
or less injury to her business when
1t was a considerable distance away,
Her complaints were answered by
promises by the proper authorities
to have the trouble attended to and
the pipe to remedy the evil arrived
this week.
Mrs. Gross is considerably exer-
cised at the present time over the
injustice which she u has been
done her and states that at least a
difference OF 5000 has been caused
in her receipts, due to the pollutins
Of her bathing grounds which caused
her trade to go elsewhere where the
water was clean.
Further trouble has now been e1-
perienced, when at least six lengths
Of the pipes have been received in a
broken condition and more will have
to be shipped to replace It, probably
delaying the putting of the drain
into proper condition, according to
the plans of the borough officials to
again point Its outlet straight off
shore and to extend 1t out to such
a point where It will not interfere
with any bathing grounds, until the
last of the month OF in September,
