RAILROAD MAKES
TWO CHANGES IN
OFFER TO ORANGE
Suggests Notifications in Pro-
posed Contract for Elimina- !.
ton of Grade Crossings.

The letter of Chief Engineer George
J. Ray, of the Lackawanna Railroad,
to Mayor Daniel f. Minahan, of Or
ange, announcing the company's view
of a suitable basis for an agreement
to eliminate grade crossings in the
city, was made public at yesterdays
meeting of the Orange Commission.
No action was taken on the letter.
Mayor M .nahan announcing he would
call a special meeting within. few
days to consider the offer.
The letter was as follows:
when | met your Doard some time
ago l promised to advise you as to
the best proposition our management
is willing to consider with reference
to the limitation of the grade cross
ings through the city of Orange.
II am authorized to advise you that
we are willing to proceed under the
proposed contract as submitted OF the
sold council last sn~ing, with the fol-
lowing notifications:
suggeste Two qualifications.
'First-Such title as this company
has in the property now forming our
right of way ON Scotland street, be-
tween Glebe and Stetson streets, will
be transferred to the city uncondi-
tional. In otner words, the city viii
be free to dispose of this property or
use it as they see fit.
"Second-The company will agree to
guarantee that the damages will not
exceed $60.000 the city and the COM
pany each to pay 81 per cent of such
damage up to the above limit"
The announcement of terms by En-
gineer Ray brings the issue squarely
to a head, and apublic meeting will
probably be called to get views of
citizens Opposition to payment by
the city of any money in excess of
the Fielder law requirement that the
municipality must bear the cost of
replacing the streets disturbed by
changes, has been manifested in pub
lie discussion. The cost alone will APP
proximate $40 900 to $4,000, and If the
damages reach 900 the city's total
expense will be in the neighborhood
of $4,000.
Would Reduce City's Share.
What the sale Of the abandoned
railroad property in Scotland street
will bring Is, of course, problematical
Some fourteen corner lots, thirty-five
feet or more in width, and any depth
required, will possibly sell for $10,-
900 or more, reducing the city's pay
ment for the railroads. Improvement
by that sum.
The railroad people offered to give
the land to be vacated to the city,
with stipulation aga INST its sale. and
with that proviso, named 40 per cent.
as the city's share of damages. The
difference between 40 per cent. and 80
per cent. OF damages would be $4,000,
so that sum is the price named by
the railroad company for its deed of
the abandoned strip in fee simple.
For years many public men have
opposed payment of a dollar by the
city to the railroad for its own work
but the corporation has stubbornly
declined to consumate its plan to ele-
vate, and build two ornate stations,
unless the city will give of its funds
for the work. Whether that attitude
still exists will speedily be disclosed
when the comm ssion begins to move
toward settlement with the COM
pany. 4 $50 s

NEW WATER RATES
FOR ORANGE ARE
PUT INTO EFFECT
Revised Schedules Expected to
Add $4,000 a Year
to Revenue.

Despite vigorous protest against the
new water-rate schedules by Commits
sioner William A. Calhoun, who
wanted higher rates to prevail, and
Commissioner William F. Kearney's
opposition to the minimum rate of 80
year for householders the Orange
Commission yesterday passed on final
reading an ordinance fixing the
charges to date from July last. Mr..
Ca 'houn wanted to enlarge the re-
cepts of the water department, which
now provides a revenue of about
900 for the city, to meet the an
ticipated expenses for sewerage d s.
posal and elimination of the railroad
grade crossings.
He sad the sewers will entail an
additional expense of 100000, and
the railroad elevation will mean at
least $40, 900 more. He said the three
ways to meet the normal increase In
city expense was to raise the tax
rate, now at 1925, and within four
points of West Oranges figure, the
highest in the county; to double the
liquor license fees, which he d d not
favor as the saloon-keepers could
not stand the burden and many
would close their places. and to tax
signs hanging over the streets.
The iast-named scheme alone was
feasible. he said, but the added rev.
enue would not exceed S. 90. AS be-
tween ra sing the tax rate and in
creasing water charges he favored
the latter. He thought the rules
should place only factories and lauh
dries under a wholesale rating, elm
mating the saloons, garages, stores
etc, mentioned IN the new meas

Replies to Hat Manufacturers.
Commissioner Calhoun took oeca-
sion to reply to statements of Robert
N. Drew, president of the hat manu-
facturers' association, at a meeting
last week concerning prices charged
in other cities for water. In West
Orange. he sad, the lowest price
charged was 81 so, as against Orange
minimum figure per thousand cubic
feet.
In Danbury, Conn, a fiat rate OF
$50 for each forming mill was the
price fixed for the hatters, and Mr..
Calhoun said that no Orange manu-
facturers with their numerous form

ing for water what the Danbury
charge would be for the number of
mills they have. One firm IN Orange
has eight mills and another four, he
said East Orange charges $1.20.
Elizabeth 81 and Morristown a.75 per
thousand cubic feet, he said
Commissioner Harry d. Wethling,
head of the water department. who
introduced the measure, explained the
places listed in the commercial group
was the same as heretofore got re-
duced figures for large consumption.
He said the amount to be used to get
the reduced cost was raised in the or
dinance 1000 cubic feet above the old
figures. He also explained that in
future separate meters would be re-
quired for the commercial patrons,
forcing the residents to pay on the do
nestle basis.

But whatever the dtscomforts of the
dinner and evening, Helen felt free
from all blame, for Warren had
planned this trip.
Several weeks before he had said
not to make any engagement for the

deep laugh. Maxwell is mighty

licitous inquiry.

But Helen was too much concerned
about her hair to be concerned about
the status Of the waitress.
HELEN SEEKS RELIEF.
Dear, | am going to run over to
the drug store for a comb. | will be
back before you get the change"
Unheeding the protest Warren roar
ed after her, Helen darteu out through
the office and across the street. She
had not waited to take the umbrella
but the rain had slackened some.
The drug clerk, who was weighing
out cough drops, looked up In mild
surprise as she entered with a breaLu-
less:
"A comb. any kind of a pocket
comb"
The next moment she had the
comb, cheap ten-cent one in a
leatherete case, and was carting back.
Have you a dressing room here?"
she asked Of the waitress who was
now making change from the cash
register in the office.
Yes, ma'am, right up the stairs to
your left"
The first door was ajar and Helen
pushed 1t open. But it was a bedroom,
| a country hotel bedroom with the
musty odor that comes from such a
room, shut up on a rainy night. Across
the hall was sort of parlOr with
| cheap upholstered furniture, and fur

Before the small cracked mirror
which hung over an unvarnished Ia

braided and coiled it securely. Then.
! with a feeling of immense relief that
she could now enjoy the evening, she
hurried down.
Warren. already in his overcoat, was
