TO commit themselves, intimating that
they had not reached a conclusion.
Dr. Kraemer. however, stated that the
commissioners would probably deter
mine at their next meeting on Thurs
day what character of paving would
be used
OF the eighteen speakers only two,
Joseph Goetz and II. D. Johnson, the
latter representing the Team Owners
Association, declared their preference
for granite paving.
Those who spoke in favor of wood
blocks were Moses Plaut, president OF
the Broad Street Merchants Associa-
ton; Louis Schlesinger, Fred 7. and
Edward T. Ward, of Aaron Ward &
Sons; William l. Cooper, president
of the National State Bank; Adrian
W. Roach. superintendent of the w
V. Snyder Company, and represents
that company and the Goerke Com
pany; Theodore s. Fettinger, repre-
senting Hahne & Co. and the Clin-
ton Hill Improvement Associa ton:
Superintendent of TRANSPORTATION
Martin, of Hahne & Co.; Augustus
F. r. Martin, cashier of the Essex
County National Bank; siegfried
Leschziner, Alderman George w. Tay-
/ lor, DIR. William Buermann, Abra-
ham Rothschild, of Stengel & Roths-
child; David e. Olds, Charles H. San
som, of c. B. Smith & Co., and j
Charlton McCurdy.
Commissioner Ryan, as president
of the board, presided at the hear
ing. Mr.. Plaut, in opening the dis
cussion, said the association of which
he is president represented 10 pei
cent of the firms paying taxes on
Broad street and that he felt the
members should have a voice in the
kind Of paving to be laid He told
of the investigation made on the
Plank road recently, in which it was
found that II per cent. of the traffic
used the side of the road paved with
wood blocks and mentioned that the
wood blocks on the bridge on thai
road were in as good condition as
when they were laid, eight years ago
He added that the principal reason
wood blocks were desired was be-
cause they were less noisy than gran
tie.
Mr. LeschZiner, who said he was az
large an individual property owner
on Broad street as there was, possess.
ing 149 feet, declared his belief thai
1t was the boards intention to give
the right sort of paving to the prop.
erty owners. He made the point thai
the future development of the city
might include many more skyscrapers
and hotels on Broad street than now
exist and that the comfort of those
who would occupy such buildings and
would desire as much quiet as pos
sible should be considered.
Louis Schlesinger said he owned
ninety-five feet on Broad street and
believed that wood paving should be
used for the comfort of those who
did business on that street.
Alderman Taylor started applause
when he declared it was "a great pity
and disgrace to the city that Mar
ket street was not paved with wood"
Mr. Roach, in expressing the desire
of the two companies he represented
for wood blocks, declared there was

nothing In the talk that such paving
would be too slippery for horses.
The first to speak for granite paving
was Mr.. Johnson, of the Team Own
ers' Association, which. he said, rep
resented 1000 teams of horses. He
declared there was no other thor
oughfare teamsters could use in GO
ing north and south except Broad
street, and that he knew by expert
ence that no pavement was so suit
able for traffic and so safe for horses
as granite.
Mr.. Martin, from his experience
with horses of Hahne g. Co., said he
had had far more horses injured on
granite than on wood paving.
According to Mr.. Goetz the city
of Elizabeth had been bankrupted
through wood paving. which had to
be torn up, and he asserted that it
had proved failure in German cities.
The desire of the South Broad
Street Merchants Association for
wood blocks was conveyed to the
board by Mr. SAMSON.
city Engineer Sherrerd, in response
to a question from Thomas Goldin-
gay, said that undoubtedly much Of
the noise in Broad street was caused
by the trolley cars and that there
would be less noise with wood paving
than with granite.
Asked by Mr.. Fettinger to state his
opinion on the two kinds of paving,
Commissioner Denman did so at
length, going into the subject with
considerable minuteness, and declar
ing he had studied it carefully foe
seven years. His belief, he stated,
was that wood blocks were the most
suitable for Broad street, under the
conditions which prevail there. He
was sure that the board would try
to reflect the public demand for the
kind of paving wanted, but that it
must use it's own intelligence in de-
Gliding what that opinion was.

TO PROBE GARBAGE
BILLS PAYMENT
Old Contractors Broke Agree
ment, Says Works Board
Commissioner.

Not satisfied with the report Of a
futile investigation as to who was re-
sponsible for the final payment to L.
]. Buckley & Co., garbage contractors,
on December 81 last. Commissioner
Kraemer, of the Board of Works, will
delve deeper into the affair. He char
acterized the passing of the bill as a
trick"
The bill had evidently been handed
to the commissioners for their sigma
lures among a number of approved"
bills. On the charge that the Buck
ley firm did not live up to its contract
during the last week in December,
the board ordered the payment held
I'D. The sum of 81, 100 could have been
deducted from the final payment for
the alleged laxity on the part Of the
contractors.
Chief Engineer Morris f. Sherrerd
reported that he had been unable to
learn who was responsible for the slip.
To prevent the recurrence of such an
affair, the board voted that hereafter
no bill will be submitted to the COM
missioners untilIit has been approved
by the engineer in charge of the work
The present lighting contract be-
tween the Public Service and the city
expires on March 1. Through r. r.
Young the company submitted an
offer to furnish gas lamps for five
years at the rate of $3.50 a lamp per
year. The city now pays $3.50 a. year
for each of its 1857 lamps.
The commissioners announced that
before a long term contract would be
entered into they want to learn how
the 90-cent gas order will affect the
city when it is in vogue on May 1. Mr..
Young declared that the board of di-
rectors would decide the matter with
in the next ten days. The city con-
tract will have to be made two months
before the new rate is effective. A
further reduction of 10 per cent. in the
cost of lamps will probably be made
if the new State rate is applicable.
The board appointed William j.
Lyons inspector of the bathhouse now
being built at Charlton and Mont
gomery streets. His salary is IS a
day, and his duty will be to report
any failure to carry out the specifi-
cations.
An increase of $4,000 over the jan
uary, 1912. receipts of the water de-
partment is shown in the report just
submitted. A large amount of this
sum represents old water bills, which
have been outstanding for years.
Commissioner Gillen reported that $50
sweepers have been put to work at a
salary of 50 a week, in accordance
with the resolution passed by the
board. He also stated that fifty more
men were working at the old scale of
| twenty-five cents an hour.

]HORT CASE OF EGGS
Riverdale Grocer Files Com
plant Against Farmer.

An affidavit was sworn out at police
headquarters yesterday by Edgar
Norris, a Riverdale grocer. charging
John Colvin, farmer living north of
Richmond, with selling him a short
measure case of eggs. Norris alleges
that Colvin delivered to him a case of
eggs which was supposed by Norris
to contain thirty dozen eggs. Upon
inspection, Norris says he found the
case to contain only twenty-seven
dozen. Norris Immediately brought
action against Colvin.
Colvin was notified and said that it
was a mistake which he would correct.
He claims that he was unaware that
the case was short. He said that he
would make the shortage good as soon
as he could see Norris. 1t is not
thought that the case will be pressed
against Colvin.
