Turnpike Plunged Into
Darkness When Wires Cross

Automobiles who had occasion to
drive along Belleville turnpike which
road cuts through the Kearny mead
ows. last night found it a rather dan
gerous proposition because of the fact
that the road was in darkness for
several hours. The autoists and driv-
ers were compelled to use great pre-
caution in order TO avoid going off
the road and into the meadow marsh,
which skirts the road for several
miles.
Employees of the Public Service
Corporation, notified by the Kearny
police that the road had been plunged
into darkness. worked on the different
supply lines in Kearny for several
hours. They finally located the seat
of trouble in supply wire on Passaic
avenue, north of the Nairn Linoleum
Works. The line had become short
circuited. thereby cutting off the
turnpike supply.

1T Is about time the Council learned
something about what efforts are
being made to solve this question, and
favor having the railroad COMMITTEES
submit a report on what it has ae-
complished during the past few
months" Mr.. Cotton said. His query
did not bring any encouraging news,
however. Councilman George A..
Grover chairman of the COMMITTEES,
said the matter is at standstill and
that the committee is patiently await
ing reply from the Lackawanna.
Mr.. Grover. responding TO an as
sertion of Mr.. Cotton, said there was
no need of any fear that the city has
been Caught mapping"
Whatever Orange does it viii not
conflict with our plans" he added.
and at the first intimation of any
thing that may prove detrimental to
East Orange interests the commit
tee will get on the job Immediately.
Mr. Cotton declared the proposition
apparently has not received fair and
cot rteous consideration, and he said
the agitation must be revived.
II am in ignorance of what course

| it is impossible for me to ask ques-
tions on the matter"
Mr.. Cotton insisted on a writer
report from the railroad COMMITTEES
and a motion directing Mr.. Grover
to draft 1t was passed.
