SERVICE
TO MAINTAIN ROAD
Abides by Decision of Utility
Commission in Reference
TO Swamp Line.

Abiding by the decision of the Pub
lie Utility Commission, General Ed
win e. Hine, of the Public Service
Railway Company, in conference
with the railroad committee of the
Orange Common Council last night.
agreed to maintain the roadway at
the intersection Of the Swamp line
trolley tracks, where the company is
contemplating laying connecting
switches.
The council in agreeing to allow
the company to lay the switches
stipulated in the contracts that the
corporation shall pay the cost of
maintaining the road, but General
Hine believed the demand unjust
Thereupon the council refused TO
grant the company permission to lay
the switches.
The matter was taken before the
Utility Commission and that board
ruled that the councils request was
just. The council will pass a resolu-
tion giving the company power to
lay the tracks at its meeting next
Monday night.
The health committee decided to
lulIouuCt d ftspiutfOH dl the next
meeting of the SounciI asking the
body to appoint a special committee
to investigate the proposed scheme of
Orange. East Orange. Montclair and
Glen Ridge to have joint garbage
disposal plant, to be located on the
boundary line of East Orange and
Glen Ridge.
| The committee favors the establish
ment of the plant and probably will
recommend to the council that Orange
| join with the other municipalities
providing the cost of erection and
maintenance will not be large. 1t is
the belief of the committee that the
plant would be saving to the city,
as the scavenger contract at present
requires large sum each year.
The committee will also ask that
$500 be appropriated for investigation
| purposes.

4 ton President Frank Odendahl ap-
oointed a committee to draft resolu-
lions of coincidence.
