and manufacturers that this excess
charge of five cents to Newarkers is
unjust. as the Trenton and Philadel-
phia freight, with cheaper rate, must
come through Newark. If the limo
leun is shipped in quantities less than
carloads. Trenton and Philadelphia
merchants pay twenty cents a hun
dred punds and the Newark rate is
thirty cents.
Not only are the rates objectionable
to the merchants, but many com
nlaints are made about the service.
They refer To the method of shipping
frst-class freight from here by the
ali-rail route. Shipments to Boston
from here are said to be delayed so
long that the merchants have re-
course TO New York city as shipping
point. from where they are able to
obtain delivery in thirty-siX hours.
In order to obtain this quicker SER
vice the merchants complain that
they are obliged to pay an additional
twelve cents a hundred pounds for
carriage from Newark to New York.
The scheduled rates on this first-class
freight are thirty-five cents a hun
dred pounds from Newark to Boston
and thirty-four cents from New York
to Boston. When the Newarker has
sent his goods TO New York to obtain
better service. he is charged the New
York rate plus the twelve cents for
carriage, or forty-siX cents.
Efforts are being made to have d
rail-and-water route established be-
tween Newark and Boston which will
result in the local merchants securing
good service at the scheduled rate.
This would mean an average saving
of eleven cents a hundred pounds on
every shipment. Through the traffic
department of the trade board, ne
eotiations are under way 10 secure
these improvements in freight con-
ditions. The traffic department is
associated with the boards committee

EDUCATION BOARD
TO HEAR CHARGES
Supervising Architect and En-
gineer Accused Of Violation
of the RuIeo.

Charges of having violated the de-
partment rules viii be preferred
against the supervising architect,
Ernest F. Guilbert, and the super
vising engineer, George W. Knight, of
the Board of Education. Warning of
the contemplated charges was con-
tanned in a resolution presented to
the board and ruled out of order last
night
Both officials viii have to answer
the same charge. that of maintaining
other business connections in add:
ton to their positions in the depart
ment They will probably have to
give up their outside interests.
The charges we're made after Presi-
dent Taylor had declared a resolution
to be out of order as presented by
Commissioner Tomkins, chairman of
a special committee composed of him
self and Mr.. johnson, which had been
appointed two months ago when the
matter was first brought up. The
resolution provided for serving notice
upon the two officials that they must
sever all other business connections
within a reasonable time or discon-
tinue in the service of the depart
ment.
President Taylor at first hesitated
to rule out the resolution and favored
referring it to the building committee
but he declared he could not enter
tain the resolution, because, he said
if the men were violating the rules
charges should be filed.
Commissioner johnson was dis
pleased with the idea of referring the
matter to the building committee, de-
claring that the board had "a right tC
discuss the subject, and he appealed
from the decision of the chair, il
which he was upheld. He then an
nounced that he would make the
charges. which will be considered a.
! q future meeting.
