TROLLEY PETITION
DELAYED IN ORANGE

The anticipated petition Of the Pub
lie Service Railway Company for per-
mission to extend the Central avenue
trolley line from its present terminus
at the line dividing East Orange from
Orange to the cross-town tracks IN
Central avenue, Orange, making a
continuous track from this city to
the Lackawanna railroad crossing at
Scotland street, Orange, did not make
its appearance at the Orange Com
mon Council meeting last night The
railroad committee received com
munication from the company's rep
resentative, Willard S. Muchmore,
and the city counsel, Arthur B. Sey-
mour, gave an opinion that the Play
ground Commission of Orange can
not sign a consent for the trolley line
passing along the thoroughfare.
The opinion gained ground that the
necessary consents of property own
ers for the new roadway have not
been secured, hence the delay in plac-
ing the formal petition before the
council ~
Mayor Murray received the request
from the trolley company to have
the city sign as a property-owner for
the line past the public playground.
This long frontage would have given
the company more than the desired 80
per cent. of the frontage conents.
The spur would make a substantial
addition to the trolley service in the
Oranges, and Is considered the first
step in a plan fer the future extension
of the trolley road over the Orange
mountain With the transfer facili-
ties to allow Orange Valley residents
to connect with the Central avenue
cars. which will be insisted upon by
the Orange officials, the new road will
save time to patrons who travel be-
tween this city and Orange and West
orange. and, likewise will relieve the
heavy Main street travel. The plan
to extend the line has been in abey-
ance several years, since the fruit
less attempt of the Public Service to
get the Common Council to allow
1t to build the line.

Before leaving the meeting Miss
Hinck said she had been TO Albany
last week and inspected the new high
school there, plans for which Were
drawn by Starett & Van Ylecht. She
said the outside appearance was chear
and lacking in artistic beauty and the
inside 'sauatty."
Commissioner Waller, chairman OF
the building committee. before the
vote was taken. said that If three
architects were asked TO submit plan.
1t would necessitate the paying OF
each a thousand dollars.
THE taxpayers are entitled to the
benefit of the ideas Of more than one
man. insisted Miss Hinek, and be-
fore she left she made the statement
that she would employ two Other
architects at her own expense and
have their plans exhibited to the cit
liens for their comparison.
It was originally expected to de-
eide the question of changing the
sessions of the schools from one &c
two, but this matter was postponed
until July for action, even though
