WORK ON C|TY'S
STREETS STOPPED
Board of Works Puts Over All
Proposed Improvements Un-
til Next Year.

The inability of the contractors TO
complete the work already on their
hands, the scarcity Of stone and the
unsettled weather conditions prompt
ed the Board of Works at its meeting
yesterday afternoon to put over all
contemplated new street work until
next year. There are at present
quite a number of unfinished street
paving contracts and it was the opin-
ion of the board that these should be
finished before any new work was
undertaken.
There is at present an unexpended
balance of about $150.000 in the street
account, which will be withdrawn
from the board, unless it is put TO
use this year. Each year soo0.ooo is
appropriated for street purposes and
the balance in retained In view OF
this fact, Deputy Chief Engineer
James @ Hallock suggested that the
contracts on contemplated work be
awarded now and the work done
later. In this manner, he said. the
board would be able TO retain the
balance in the account. Nothing was
done on this suggestion.
Commissioner Charles F. Kraemer
referred to the river tunnels OF
Chicago as having equalized the popu-
iafion on both sides of the river and
relieving the cross bridges of all troll
lev traction. He contrasted the re-
lief given with the thousands Of dol
lars lost by Newark in the way OF
patronage because of the long delays
caused by open draws over the Pas
sale River and the growth on New
arlk's side of the river as against that
of Harrison, Kearny and Arlington
for lack of proper cross-over ac-
commodations The Chicago officials,
he stated, informed him that the tun-
nels had increased river shipping by
thousands of tons.
Upon visits to Milwaukee, Detroit,
Buffalo, Auburn, Boston and ProVi-
dence he found the traction companies
using to advantage numerals as an
additional route sign and that the
custom of running car lines over one
street is being abolished and in
dividual street lines with transfers
being substituted. i.
One way streets for trolleys and
trucks is the motto in Chicago, he re-
ported, and Boston is gradually
adopting the plan. Even though the
street be of regulation width, the
track is placed in the centre. the pur-
pose being to allow more completes
progress of vehicular traffic.

REsuRvEY MADE BY UNITED

this survey he'd become largely oblit-

ruse. The resurveying was done by
