meeting, and, after Director Evans
had suggested that one, agreeing
that the representatives of the boards
of ifreeholders present should take
up with their boards the question of
whether or not the boards were will
ing to make formal application to
Governor James f. Fielder for the
appointment of a commission, such
resolution was offered by County
Counsel j. W. DeYoe, of Passaic
county, and was unanimously
adopted.
The result of this canvass of the
feelings of the different boards of
freeholders will be reported to the in
terstate commission at a second con-
ference to be held in New York city
on Thursday, June IL. at 10 a. m.
outside of the effort to force

most startling fact brought out yes

countys share of the proposed i'm
provement amounting to 100000 1t
would really amount to So, 9S1, 1872, ac-
cording to figures given out by the
yesterday.
1t was carefully explained that
these figures were not final. but that
they were believed to be conservative
and that the total cost of the bridge
and tunnel improvements would not
total more than s53,000,000.
The figures as prepared by the COM
are as follows:

good accruing to the state and city
Of New York from the construction
of a bridge, especially wien New
Jersey counties would be called on TO
pay one-half the cost.
County Counsel Addison Ely, OF
Bergen county, then spoke heartily
in favor of the bridge plan and said
that the undertaking was not one
fiftieth as difficult as had been the
problem of the Brooklyn bridge When
first undertaken by the cities OF New

resolution referring the entire mat

streets will not be vacated as advo-
Gated by the Celuloid Company. This
action was taken by the Board of
Works yesterday afternoon. Com
missioner Gillen, chairman of the
street committee, made a motion to
grant permission to the Celluloid
concern provided that all others in
that neighborhood were satisfied.
George w. w. Porter, attorney for
the Celluloid Company. stated that
the various concerns in that neigh
borhood expressed willingness for the
vacating of the thoroughfares men,
toned
The motion was lost, as it was not
seconded. Commissioner Biertuemp-
fel opposed the grant. Commissioner
Ryan said that before he was MEM
Der of the board he promised that he
would not vote to vacate any streets
and even refused to enter into the
discussion.
At first the Celluloid Company
wanted McGregor avenue vacated as
well as the other three streets. At
yesterdays meeting Mr.. Porter de-
clared that this proposition was
abandoned and the petition was for
Emma, Kossuth and Komorn streets.
For the past several years this mat
ter has been hanging fire. The board
several times have discussed the
proposition but no definite conclu-
sion could be reached. Mr.. Porter for
the last several meetings argued to
vacate the property and had the sup
port of Commissioner Gillen.
1t was the object of the Celluloid
Company to enlarge their plant to al
most double its present capacity. To
carry out their intentions it was
found hat three of the streets rum
ming near Their property would have
to be vacated Plans were drawn for
the work The action by the Board
of Works yesterday will compel the
lirm to alter their plans.
At yesterdays meeting Mr.. Porter
took almost an hour to tell the COM
missioners of the large profits the city
would gain in revenue if the Celluloid
Company was allotted to enlarge its
plant.
To this remark Pres dent Kraemer
stated: what those possible benefits
are we have experienced in the build
ing of the Chinese wal of the Penn
syIvania railroad. Instead of bene-
fit it is a detrlment to those living
below the railroad and the city mas
suffered incalculable loss. Now, your

Then she began writing for the New

to try her hand at fiction. She pre-
pared a story, and sent it to a chill
dren's magazine of national reputa-
ton. Yesterday, which was the an
niversary of her fathers birth, she
received a check from the magazine,
