a report from any committee to show
that there were many visitors in the

PENDANT company, as trustee of the
estate of Sarah Cooke, mother of
the plaintiff, is charged with having
retained In it's capacity as trustee
certain stocks and bonds while the
price was decreasing, as a result of
which Mrs. Beam lost considerably.
Mrs. Cooke was the wife of John
Cooke, the locomotive builder, of Pat
erson. Vice-Chancellor Howell has
already decided the case in favor OF
Mrs. Beam. Final decree in the mat
ter. however, has not yet been signed

Hearing Is Postponed in
Case Against Water Co.
Before Utility Commission

After hearing the complaint of Sig
mund Unger, of Passaic, that the
rates of the Acknowledgements Water
Company in that city are excessive.
the Board of Public Utility Commits
sioners today postponed further ac-
ton to February 10 to allow the COM
plainant time to secure more evil
dence to back up his assertions.
Unger produced copy of an offer
made in 1907 by the water company
to give certain reductions in it's rates,
which offer was not accepted by the
city. He took this as his basis for
the assertion that the company could
charge less and still make a profit.
He also protested against the charge
of 81 made by the company to install
a meter. A. w. Cuddeback, repre-
senting the company, testified that
the 81 for installation was to cover
expense. A number of water bills
were introduced showing that coo
cubic feet of water had been con-
sumed and charged at the same price
as 1900 cubic feet, the minimum rate
This should be remedied, the petit
toner claimed, because very few OF
the consumers used moreA than halt
the amount for which the minimum
charge is made. The hearing was
held in the court house.
