ORANGE URGED TO
SHARE R. R. EXPENSE
Refusal TO Pay Part of Crossing
Elimination Cost Would De-

Prophesying that years of litigation
Will follow when the Lackawanna
railroad tests tie validity of the
Fielder. law providing for the elimina-
ton of grade crossings, thereby de-
laying the removal of the death
traps" in the city, most of the
members of the Orange Board Of
Trade last night argued CONVINCING
ingly against the municipality refus-
ing to pay half of the property dam
age incident to the elecation of tho
tracks. 1t is this phase of the prob
lem that is bothering tire railroad
committee of the Common Council
most
The officials of the railroad have
told the committee it is their intention
TO test the law, and advised that
the proper procedure is to ignore the
provisions of the bill and agree to paw
certain amount of the property
damages.
Former Judge Thomas A. Davis
exclusively urged the business. men
to convince themselves that tie
crossings viii be eliminated within
a short period If the city agrees to
pay the amount demanded by the
Lackawanna, and at the finish OF

| Two members of the board who de-
clined absolutely to change their at
titude against the city paying any-
thing other than the cost of attending
TO the water and sewer pipes OF
streets as provided in the Fielder law.
were Postmaster Edward S. Perry
and John D. Everritt, president OF the
board.
Mr.. Davis's chief idea in advocating
that the city agree to pay some of the
cost he said, was that twice as much
benefit would be received no matter
what sum was demanded of the tax
payers.
He presented figures which tended
to show that the cost of property
damages will not exceed 100000. OF
which the railroad asks the city TO
pay half. He stated figures indicated
that IL the provisions of the Fielder
law are followed the cost of relaying
water and sewer pipes will amount
to about $4,000
Concerning the question of improve
ment made by the Lackawanna in
Montclair and Bloomfield the former
judge declared those towns have bene-
fitted by twice the amount they app
propriated for the work.
Formal action was not taken, but
the board instructed the municipal
committee to consider the problem
with the railroad committee IL its
services are desired.
