! NEW YORK, March 12.-Charles A
Kaufman, a fireman on the Baltimore

tween Eastern railroads and their

had been imposed upon Baltimore and
Ohio firemen in recent years. Ton
mage of trains had increased. said the
witness, and coal consumption on en-
gines was greater.
Frederick A. Murphy, another
Baltimore and Ohio fireman, cor
roborated Kaufman. He added that
in the Nefforts of the road to observe
the sixteen-hour law of continuous
service firemen were frequently re-
lieved from duty long distances from
home and received no pay for the
time consumed in returning.
Murphy read table of hours con-
sumed on trips last November. He
cited three trips on which he had been
obliged to exceed the sixteen-hour
limit. one of twenty-five hours.

hours exclaimed w. S. Carter, presi-
dent of the flremen's organization.
"FIow was it the police didn't catch

They don't catch US, said the
witness. Murphy appeared greatly
embarrassed, and this prompted Mr..
Carter to say that the witness hest
tated to give evidence against his
company that would make it liable
to prosecution.
There is no occasion for him to

Lee.
Charles p. Huber, an engineer on
the Lackawanna, testified that a re-
quest for an extra fireman on heavy

I'D hate to say. That is what is
in the minds of many of the firemen."

WAITING ROOM At
DEPOT REQUESTED
Harrison to Act Unless Proper
Shelter Is Afforded by
Lackawanna.

At the instance of Councilman
Frederick c. Clifton, the Harrison
Town Council last night took initial
steps in the matter of attempting to
have the Lackawanna railroad prop
erly enclose the shed used as a watt
ing room on the east side of the Har-
rison station. 1t was due in a large
degree to the efforts of the Star that
shelter was constructed a few
years ago.
There are no doors on the struc-
ture, the front being open. There
have been times when the floor was
covered with snow several inches
deep Early morning commuters are
the worst sufferers. Should tlfe
Lackawanna fail to do as the council
asks an appeal will be made to the
Public Utilities Commission
The Lackawanna will also be asked
by the council to properly light the
stairways leading to the station.
Councilman Clifton also pointed out
the benefit to be gained by COM
muters if they could board train
that passes through about 6;24 a. m.
The company will be asked to stop
the train in question.
New Trolley Line Possible.
Mayor Joseph P. Riordan pointed
out the need of cars over the Jack
son street bridge. He said he had
been informed by a representative of
the Public Service Corporation that
the company may very soon confer
with the joint freeholder board In an
effort to get permission to lay tracks
on the bridge in question. 1t was re-
ported the freeholders are satisfied
to make the grant if the proper ar
rangements can be made with the
trolley company.
A bill for $13,16S.75 submitted by the
Public Service Corporation for cleo
trio light was responsible for a
squabble. Councilman John j. DAILY
declared he learned the town had
lost out in fight to secure a lower
rate for electric light. The town,
though being supplied with electric
light by the Public Service, has not
been under contract for two years.
A fight to secure a lower rate dates
back that length of time.
Differ on Light Contract.
Councilman DAILY explained that
some time ago the Public Service Of
fered to sell light to the town at the
rate of $50 an arc lamp and to date
the contract to the time of expira-
ton of the old one. Under the old
contract the town paid about $S7
light. The $50 proposition was turned
down, it being decided to take
chances on getting lower rate. Mr..
DAILY last night commended the town
will lose 800 if the Public Service
refuses to date back the contract TO
1911. Mayor Riordan was of the
opinion the town had nothing to lose.
A motion by Councilman Edward
f. McKeon that a contract be entered
into with the Public Service was lost.
1t was decided to lay the matter
over until next month A petition
from number of Harrison business
men to the effect that the present
fire truck be equipped with motor ap-
paratus was received. 1t was re-
ferred. Councilmen DAILY and O'Con-
nor declared an automobile ambu-
lance should be purchased before the
matter of having an automobile fire
truck is considered.
