GERMAN FORCES
SENT TORRANCE
FROM BELGIUM

Special by United Press Wire.
Antwerp, Sept. 17:-The Germans
are withdrawing their main forces
and sending them into France ir
enormous numbers, but there are nc
signs that they contemplate the gem
eral evacuation of Belgium as those
withdrawn are replaced by troops OF
the second line and from the naval
reserve. A continuous stream Of
, trains is passing through AK la
Chappelle, carrying fresh troops to
the scene of battle in the south, and
it is believed certain that the Ger
mans are hoping again to resume the
offensive. Only the western line
through the center of Belgium is
Leld by the Germans. The towns 70
the eastward, notably Liege, have
been denuded of their garrisons and
the troops sent on to the general
battle front.
These preparations lent interest to
the reported landing of strong rein

WILL USE CHEAP
BRICK AND SAVE
LARGE AMOUNT
Aldermen Believe That Brick
Specified in Lowest Bid of
LiddIe & Pfeiffer for New
Brunswick Ave. is All Right.

By using a low priced yet sub
stantial brick for the top surface
the Board of Aldermen estimate to
save about $4,000 on the proposed
New Brunswick avenue pavement.
The city fathers believe that the
brick specified in the lowest bid OF
Liddle & Pfeiffer will stand a suffi-
ciently hard test to be of service.
They declare that the pavement must
be substantial, yet they want the
work done for the lowest possible
cost. Work is progressing on street
improvements now under way, AL
dermen Chris Jorgensen, John j.
Clark and John Kutcher announced
today The Cortlandt street pave
ment was completed today. About
fifty per cent of the concrete work
on Oak street has been done and
rapid progress is being made on the
Amboy avenue pavement, north of
Hall avenue.
Samples of bricks and blocks
named in estimates for the New
Brunswick avenue job are now un-
dergoing a test at the Rutgers Col
lege laboratory in New Brunswick.
Aldermen declare that if the low
priced brick stand the necessary test,
they will be used. They state there
Is a difference of about $4,000 be-
tween the two lowest bids, which
they hold to be an item we'll worth
considering before proceeding to
pick out some well advertised brick
or block.
The question of paying for the
paving work is one which is receiving
much consideration from city ofti-
cials at the present time. This state
of affairs is brought about by the
condition of the money market.
Money can be secured only at a high
rate of interest which hovers about
the six per cent. mark. For this
reason it is advised that the city
issue a number of short-time notes
to obtain money, until such time as
conditions improve. Chairman John
j. Clark, of the committee on streets
and sewers, advises that notes of
from one to two years be issued in
place of bonds, declaring it would be
poor policy to issue long-term bonds
now while the rates were so high.

PALMER FREED;
TO START ANEW

charles Palmer, of this city, who
In former years gave the police much
concern when he was continually ar
rested for visiting other peoples
chicken coops and walking off with
the most buxom "friers,' fat hens,
and often roosters for that matter,
has been paroled from serving the
rest of his prison sentence, and will
return home shortly. He was sent to
prison March 7, 1913, following his
being incarcerated in the county jail
for number of terms on the charge
of chicken thievery, which did not
seem to reform the young man. He
was sentenced to serve from one and
one-half years to three in prison, but
was extended clemency by the Board
of Pardon Inspectors.
Palmer was formerly champion
track runner, and was hailed as the
fieetest athlete in Middlesex county
at one time. He won many medals,
and was a hero in the sporting cir
cles of the county. Track races
waned in interest and Palmer re-
jected, degenerated to a chicken
thief. He intends to set new
standard of living, and begin life
anew.

NEED PARK, SAYS
BURKE:;PLACEF FOR
ROLLER SKATING

Chief of Police Burke acknowl-
edged today that the police depart
ment is in predicament. And the
innocent roller skater is the cause
of it all. The chief has made the
devotees of this pleasure and exer-
else keep off the sidewalks, and still
complaints originate from the noise
they make on the payements Tf
we had a park where they could &c"
said the superintendent of police,
the problem would be solved, as we
would make them do their skating
there" The chief does not feel like
breaking up roller skating on the
streets entirely, because the city's
youthful population derives large
share of their fun through this SIM
pie amusement. Then too, he says
that there is no law against roller
skating on the streets, unless the
children and youths become dis
orderly.
Last night a complaint was re-
ceived from Lewis street and Ser
geant McDermott sent Patrolman
Steed to stop the roller skating in
that vicinity. A big gang had col
lected and then the whole brigade,
numbering about seventy, retreated
to State street, where they 'scraped"
the pavement until late hour. E.
S. Carter of 112 State street, made
a complaint this morning to the po-
lice. He says that about seventy
skaters crowded the streets last
night and that the grinding noise of
the rollers was annOying He said
that when automobiles passed from
twelve to fifteen at times would
jump on and ride for short distances.
He wanted the police to stop the
gang. From one street to another
the wandering, homeless boys and
girls roam about until they can find
a strip of street where they may
skate undisturbed, because the city
has provided no place where they
may go to stay to enjoy the sport.

Letter Sent to Public Service
Officials to Negotiate With
Aldermen on Matter of Dou-
BILE Tracking in This City.
SURVEYORS ARE AT WORK
But Public Service Officials
Must First Close Negotia-
tions With City, is DecIara-
ton of City Heads Today.

Double trolley tracking on the
eity's principal streets will come
but the Public Service Traction Com
pany must first close negotiations
with the city, declared Mayor Ferd
Garretson today. He was supported
In this contention by a majority OF
the aldermen, who discussed the sub
ject briefly with the citys chief ex-
ecutive as some surveyors were
working at Smith and State streets
this morning. City Clerk Wilbur La
Roe has sent letter to the Public
Service head, presenting the atti-
tude of the city in regard to the es-
tablishment of negotiations before
any concessions were made to the
traction company.
When the Public Service concern
has met the city on an equitable
basis, the latter will be in a position
to permit double tracking and not
before such a time, declares Mayor
Garretson> and the aldermen. The
city officials appear firm in the belief
that the traction officials want a
double track system here to great
extent and will act speedily upon the
advice to negotiate. The officials
here contend that 1t is but a matter
of time that will elapse in reaching
agreements, before the double track
ing work will be under way here. A
majority seem to favor the PROPOSE
ton, claiming that it would give the
city far better trolley facilities and
would serve to improve the running
time between this city and out of
town points. 1t is pointed out by To-
cal officials that approximately fif-
teen minutes of the running time be-
tween this city and New Brunswick
is taken up by switch delays between
Smith and State streets and the
Eagleswood switch With double
tracks, there would be little or no
delay. 1t is declared
The latest application of the Pub
lie Service for double tracks, is in
he hands of the street committee of
the council Chairman John j.
lark, of that committee, reported
at the last meeting that the memb bers
were ready to deal with the Public
Service officials, but they wanted
them to come down here to hear and
make propositions for a settlement

NOTE WILL RUN 3 MONTHS

The Board of Water Commission
ers last night decided to borrow
$4,000 at six per cent for three
months, to lay eight six inch water
mains in streets for which petitions
have been made and to bill property
owners along Amboy avenue, where
the new paving is being laid for the
installation of service pipes from
the streets main to the curb
The failure of the city to sell wa
ter Improvement bonds amounting to
100000 at four and one-half per
cent, dated September /, made it
necessary for the board to seek a
loan. Newark and New York, it is
declared have had to borrow large
sums at six per cent, following the
inability of the municipalities to
float their bond issues at this time.
A resolution was unanimously adopt
ed, after 1t was presented by Will
liam p, Nolan, chairman of the fl
nance committee, which provides in
anticipation of water rents now due,
tha promissory note be drawn up and
that the city treasurer sell same to

this time the board hopes that the
100000 bond issue may be fioated,
and if not that with the collections
of the water rents the board may tide
itself over the enormous Drain on
their resources, necessitated by the
comprehensive improvement work
the body has undertaken during the
past four months.
Some idea of the draft on the
boards finances for new work being
completed may be CLEANED from the
following figures: Claims on new
work approved by the board at the
meeting last night amounted to
about S25,000, NOT considering run
ming expenses, repairs, etc. The
board approved the claim for a third
payment for the installation of 49,
600 feet of thirty-inch main from
Runyon to Ernston, which work is
being done by Ira R. Grouse. This
claim was $20,250. The previous
two payments on the work, which
was started about July /, amount to
$26,650. Nearly 10000 feet of the
main have been laid. The board or
