DEATH KNELL OF
OLD MOUNTAIN
ROAD SOUNDED
Public Service Requests ordi-
nance Permitting Use of Its
Tracks Rescinded.

With service of formal notice on
the Orange Commission yesterday by
General Edwin w. Hine, secretary OF
the Public Service Corporation, that
his company wished to have stricken
from the Central avenue trolley ordi-
nance section 8, which would permi.
the Mountain Railway Company uso
of the corporations tracks, the pos
sibility of reopening the service on
the road from Orange Valley to st.
Cloud was ended.
Frank Brewer. representing the
mountain line. made formal applica-
tions to the Orange Commission and
again to the West Orange Town
Council last night for permission TO
run an auto bus up the mountain
roads from the Cone street depot m
Orange to Rock Spring, and this
method of transportation. when es-
tablished, will take the place of the
mountain trolley.
General Hine, speaking at the Or
ange meeting. said there was evil
IDENTIFY no stability to the mountain
road. Former Judges Alfred F. Skin
ner and Thomas A. Davis have with
drawn from the concern. The efforts
to get more backing had not been
successful up to the present. The
Public Service did not want to be
tied up with the Mountain company
under the circumstances, in a fifty
year franchise, as a new concern in
the future might be handicapped by
the arrangement.
General Hine, however, made IL
plain that IL the mountain line was
in position to negotiate later for use
OF the Public Service tracks they
NJ
ent. All that would be required, he
said, would be a formal application
to the Public Utilities Commission
and the Orange officials. The ordi-
nances on the Central avenue exten-
sion were laid over by the commits
sion and the West Orange Town
Council to September Is. On that
date General Hine will ask the
change in the ordinances to elm
mate mention of the mountain line.
That concern was hopeful of get
ting the right to use the Public Ser
vice lines so as to make it's Orange
terminal at the Highland avenue
depot of the Lackawanna road. The
city of Orange will exact a license
fee of $25 per annum from the new
bus line.
The old trolley line was big help
to residents of the mountain, but its
receipts did not pay expenses. The
town taxes were unpaid, and the Pub
lie Service bill for electricity ran UP
until the company shut off its power
The end was reached yesterday, and
the mountain road, which has had
many vicissitudes, will have to await
future development of the mountain
property before its operation as q
trolley route will be a success.
Frank Brewer, moving spirit in the
enterprise, has made faithful effort
to continue the line, and despite his
lack of success the mountain resi-
dents are grateful for his indefatigabls

the sale could be. used for anything
but school purposes.

tify Town Treasurer Samuel H.
Wenk, and also the town counsel,
that the amount of premium on the
sale of bonds should remain to the
credit of the school board, at the
same time requesting that the pre-
MUM on the sale of former school

hours have expired he is authorized
to destroy all dogs that have not
been called for. He collects so cents
for each one he kills. Before paying
out this money the borough officials
wanted some kind OF proof that the
dogs had been destroyed.
Last night Smith appeared with his
report and a large bundle under his
arm. When asked what the bundle
contained Smith said it was proof
that he had disposed of the dogs that
had not been redeemed. This remark
caused considerable speculation.

man of the police committee, opened
the package and found that the tails
of the dead animals had been neatly
severed and carefully preserved. AS
soon as the other members of the
