LIGHT CONTRACT
South Orange Township Com
mittee to Make Terms With
Public Service.

After having received its street IL
Elimination from the Public Service
Electric Company for ten months
without entering into a contract,
South Orange Township is to enter
into a pact beginning October 1 and
extending for a period of five years.
The suburban municipality has
been at odds with the electric COM
pany since January l. when the town
ships last lighting contract expired.
In seeking a renewal of the contract
the Township Committee sought to
have concessions which were in the
old pact continued in the new con-
tract
One of the desired stipulations
which was in the original franchise
was that South Orange be permitted
other equipment of the Electric Com
pany. should the municipality desire
at q later date to erect a municipal
lighting plant or purchase it's illu-
mination from a rival company.
This concession, the Public Service
Company refused, and the signing of
a new contract has been held in
allegiance by the township officials.
who held that they would not agree
to a contract without such a con-
eession. The matter was brought to
the attention of the State Board of
Public Utility Commissioners by Bor-
den ID. Whiting, who was engaged as
special counsel for the township, but
the board took no action in the mat
ter.
Committeeman Frederick O. Run
yon, chairman Of the lighting COM
mittee, said last night that he had
found that the lighting company can
not be forced to include the desired
clause In the contract. Inasmuch as
the township is being penalized to the
extent of about $107 a year for pur-
chasing its light without a contract,
he urged entering into a contract with
the lighting company.
On Mr.. Munyon's motion, Chairman
Charles A. Cross was authorized to
enter into a contract for five years to
township will waive none of its rights
contained in the original lighting
franchise granted to the Public Ser
vice Corporation in 1896.
Township Clerk Edward r. Arcula-
RUS was granted a leave of absence
from September 20 to October 10. The
Hilton Improvement Association
urged the committee to take the nee
essary steps for the erection of new
fire house in the Hiltonia section. The
matter was referred to Fire Chief
William T.. Campbell. Three residents
of Union avenue petitioned the
committee to extend the water main
and place a fire hydrant in that
street and the matter was referred
to the fire committee with power.
Committeeman Frederick o. Run
yon, Township Engineer Edmund r.
Halsey and DR.. Edward Taylor were
appointed as a committee to represent
the township at a conference to be

people, and the crowd was soon en-
joying the various amusements at the
grounds. Preceding the starting OF
the activities, the throngs listened to
talks by Father Murphy, the State

to Father Murphy, and referred to
the evident popularity of the rector
in Jersey City. ~ most sincerely
! wish him the success in the Fifth
ward of East Orange which attended
his labors in the Fifth ward of Jersey

the two Jersey City congressman paid
glowing tributes to the works of the
priest, and related the intimacy of
their acquaintance with him. 1t was
along toward midnight before the
delegations returned home.
The carnival grounds, were bril-

pass the ordinance on final reading on
September 20. The necessary consents
of, property owners were filed by the
company with the city clerk, John ].
Byrne, yesterday. conference will
be held next week to whip the ordi-
nance into shape
That the corporation will not ac-
cept the section allowing the Noun
tain Railway Company to run its
cars over the Public Service tracks
was stated by General Hine, as the
Mountain company has no tangible
existence or property. in his opinion.
Final work on the measure Is not ex-
pected to cause friction.
Commissioner Wethling asked Gen.
eral Hine IL he could give an all-night
service to Orange Valley. The lat
ter replied that not one of the COM
panys all-night cars paid for the cost
of running it. Commissioner Cal-
houn asked if the unsettled financial
conditions would hold up the Central
avenue road General Hine said the
Newark terminal job involved 'ex-
penditures of millions of dollars, but
the cost of the Central avenue line
could be financed now, he was GER
tain.
The State Board of Health notified
the commission to attend confer
ence on the morning of October In
Trenton, when the municipalities in
the joint trunk sewer and the Joint
trunk sewer committee will consider
ways and means to prevent further
pollution of the waterways of the
State by overflow of sewage" The
commissioners were somewhat mys-
titled by the vagueness of the COM
munication. which was referred to

Wethling, the other commissioners
accepted Roth e. Co.'S offer OF $780, %
for an old water bill of $595.9l The
firm complained it had been charged
for an excessive quantity OF water,
but the settlement, despite the pro-
test of the head of the water depart
ment, was based on an allowance OF
the lower rate given factory users OF
half million gallons of water or
more year. A batch OF otner reuuc-
tons allowed, following explanations
by the water department officials OF
the reasons for the allowances, called
forth no discussion.

was authorized to sue several out-of-
town users of water who have not
paid their bills. and the Ninth Ward
Building and Loan Association Will

the bottlers' licenses. The commune
cation went to Commissioner Cal

SH|F TING FIREMEN
Transfers Made in East Orange
Department, Despite Obiec-
ton of Commissioner.

Against the vigorous objection OF
Commissioner N. Augustus Baldwin.
the East Orange Fire Commissions
last night sanctioned transfers or
number of men in the department,
which were suggested by Chief Will
lam e. Markwith, and approved two
shifts made by the chief before he
informed his superior of his contena-
plated action.
Mr.. Baldwin argued that the CHIEF
had no right to shift men withouf
consulting with the commission, and
although President Henry Grobert
took a similar stand, the act was APP
proved. Mr.. Grobert instructed the
fire head not to change men without
permission hereafter
Less than three months ago the
commission approved general
shake-up after petty squabbles among
certain men with the intention of eff
fecting absolute discipline. Chief
Marltwith said he recommended the
changes this time with the sole Officer
of adding to the conveniences Of the
men affected He explained some Of

up suffered because of the distance

their meals, and that he was anxious
to restore them to their previous To-

defer APPROVAL
FOR USING SEWER
BelIeviIIe Wants to Know Ca
pacity of FIume Before
Giving Sanction.

The Belleville Town Council in
tends to go slow in agreeing to the
admission OF other towns to the Pas
sale Valley trunk sewer compact.
When applications were received last
night from Haledon and Prospect
Park 1t was decided to find out first
from the sewer engineer if the capa-
city of the fiume will permit the'other
towns to enter,
That council should proceed slowly
was contended by Councilman e. o.
Cyphers. Councilman Samuel Y.
Cathcart thought the application
should be Endorsed by Belleville, and
the number of applicants be limited
by the commission. He alone OPP
posed the course adopted by the coun-
ell.
On invitation from the Newark In
dustrial Exposition Association, it
was decided to attend the exhibit in
the First Regiment Armory next FRI
day. The application of Dennis
Riordan for appointment as chance
man on the police force was referred
to the investigating committee. II
was decided to hold special meeting
soon for the reading of ordinances
Mayor John c. La Faucherie ex-
pressed his disapproval Of the plan
to prohibit the use of fireworks at
celebrations in Silver Lake section of
the town. TITS an insult to a por-
ton of the citizens of the Second
ward" he said. A number OF people
had been to his office complaining
against the freedom granted the cele-
brants, he said, and he thought the
complainants would accomplish more
good by staying at home and letting
Belleville run its own affairs.
The mayor said he did not sane
ton the usage of loud-sounding
bombs at the displays and added that
at the recent celebration an agree
ment made to refrain from their
usage had been broken.
1t was decided to purchase a new
motorcycle for the use of the police
department. A portion of the cost
will be betrayed by exchanging the
one In use at present.
