DISMISS REQUEST
FOR CAR SERVICE
Utility Board Finds Line from
PlainfieId to South Plainfleld
Would Not Pay.
Special to the Evening star.

TRENTON, Oct. 1.-THE complaint
and petition of Mrs. William Smith
and others, of Plalnf1eld, against the
Public Service Railway, concerning
the extension OF, the company's troll
ley service from Plainfeld to South
Plainfleld, on which several hearings
were held in Newark In April and
May of this year, was today dis
missed by the Board of Public IT'LL
ity Commissioners on the ground
that the most liberal assumption as
to the cost and probable income in
cident to the establishment of the
extension by the Public Service Com
pany does not show that the grant
ing of the petition would be reason
able and practicable, and that 1t
would furnish sufficient business to
justify the construction and mainte-
nance of the proposed line by the
company.
The board, In its opinion, said that
its conclusion is reached wholly on
the conditions disclosed by the tes-
timony adddced before it In refer
ence to the complaint and petitions
of Mrs. Smith and other residents OF
Plainf1eld interested in the extension.
1t further says that changes may
occur in the locality which might at
some future time alter the opinion of
the board as to- the advisability of
ordering the company to establish
the line asked for.
In making its decision, the Utility
Commission says IL assumes the cost
of construction of this proposed route
at 100000 as against $16S,SS1 testified
to by the respondent company, and
that, further, Ii assumes the cost of
operation and interest on the sum
invested at S14, 400 as against the
company's figures of s32,141.6 81.
The opinion goes into detail with
reference to the testimony given for
and against the extension and the
figures assumed by the board, as
against those quoted by the com
pany, are based upon testimony
given by Lemuel w. Serrell and
others for the petitioners.
With respect to the contention of
the company concerning lack OF
franchise to operate from Fourth
street, Plainfleld, along Plainfield
avenue to South Plainfield, the opin-
ion says: The respondent company
in a very full and carefully prepared
brief, cites many authorities in sup
port of its contention that the com
pany, having no franchise covering
the proposed route. cannot be COM
PEELED to construct this line. AS this
petition must be dismissed upon the
facts, we deem 1t unnecessary to
pass upon the legal question in
volved."

Kept Out Of Politics.

In Austria women are forbidden by
law to take an active part il politics
or to join any political association.
Last spring the chamber Of deputies
decided to cancel the prohibiting
clause, and the political committee of
the upper house has now Endorsed this
vote OF the deputies. with the explana-
ton that the part taken by women
in associations with political ten
denotes is well known, and, under the
circumstances. can scarcely be pre-
vented" This bill has been SEM back
to the deputies for further considera-
ton. The women of Austria have been
leading an agitation against the rise
Of prices which they, as housekeepers,
feel most acutely. They have been
successful in cheapening coal in Vienna
and milk in Brunn. The leaders OF the
movement have been elected to mu-
nicipal committees, and for the frat
time a woman has been put on . conn
mittee of a town council. viz. that Of
Housing.

Gun Custards,

Heat a quart of milk in a double
boiler, but do not bring it quite to the
boil. Beat five eggs light and stir into
them half a cupful of sugar. On this
mixture pour the scalding milk very
gradually, beating steadily all the time.
Return to the double boiler and cook,
stirring constantly, until the custard is
separated. Remove the custard from
the ire, season with two teaspoonfuls
of vanilla and set aside to cool. When
cold, nearly fill the glasses or cups
with the mixture and heap with
meringue made by whipping the
whites OF two eggs stiff with two table
spoonfuls of sugar.
