GARRETSON AVE,
WILL Be OPENED
After Inspection Today by Al
dermen This is Practically
Decided Upon.
PROTECTION FOR MANY
Believed Resolution Will be
Passed at Next Meeting for
Extension There.
PROTECTION FOR MANY

Impressed today with the apparent
need for connecting link between
Amboy avenue and State street,
about midway between Hall avenue
and Maurer, members of the Board
of Aldermen have practically decided
to open and extend Garretson ave-
nue.. This was evident at the con-
clusion of an inspection tour at noon
today which carried the city fathers
and other men over the course of the
proposed extension. 1t was noticed
that hundreds of school children and
workmen crossed and recrossed
tracks there on their way to and
from school and work. Conditions
as expressed by Joseph Massopust at
the council meeting Monday night
were viewed and it was declared by
the aldermen that there should be a
connecting link at the point desig-
mated.
1t is believed that resolution
will be passed at the next meeting
of the Board of Aldermen Monday
night, May IS, to provide for the
opening and extension of Garretson
avenue. The subject will be discuss
ed and finally decided at committee
meeting of the city fathers one week
from today. The proposition will
involve construction of tunnels under
the Central and Pennsylvania rail
road tracks in the northern part OF
the city, which will be the greatest
cost incident TO the proposed i'm
provement. Mr.. Massopust has
stated that both railroad companies
would prefer to do that work AMI
they have estimated the cost at
$25, 900 for each tunnel. This total
cost of $4,000, Mr.. Massopust de-
clares, will be placed upon the rail-
roads and property owners. He is
confident that the railroad compa-
MES can be caused to stand for
liberal portion of the expense and
that property owners who would be
benefited would gladly pay stipu-
/ lated sum per lot for the extension.
He believes that property owners
would pay as much as $40 for each
lot improved, and as there are from
1900 to 1000 such lots, from
$40, 900 to $4,000 could thus be
raised, If necessary.

FIND BODY Of
DROWNED MAN
Mystery Surrounds Discovery
of Corpse Off Sea Breeze,
TottenviIIe, Today.
IN THE WATER MANY DAYS

Mystery surrounds the finding of
the body of man floating off Sea
Breeze, Tottenville, in the Raritan
bay about II o'clock this morning.
From indications the man had been
in the water a long time. 1t was at
first thought it was the body of
George Marsdale, a fireman on the
tug Aries that sank near the Great
Beds light last month. However, the
body found this morning seemed to
be of man about fifty years old, and
the Aries fireman was much young
er.
The body was found by the crew of
the tug Teiyus, as it passed up the
bay, 1t was brought to the steam
boat dock here, and Coroner James
j. Flynn notified and given charge of
the body. In the vest pocket of the
corpse was found a paper bearing
the name, u. Killem, 1850 Third

Keyport, May s S:-Lieenses of ten

ough of Keyport, which were closed
Tuesday when applications for re-
newals were held up, were granted
by Judge John E. Foster yesterday
A feeling of relief was thereby
caused to spread among the liquor
dealers and they felt that they we're
not as bad as they had been painted

licenses were held up and then
granted yesterday were seven in

Quoted by William Heiles, and the
Halfway House in Broadway, CON
Quoted by Mrs, Folan,
The places were reopened yester-
day as soon as news of Judge Fos-
ter's decision reached the proprie-
tors. 1t was declared that he had
received a remonstrance from the
borough and that as a consequence
he had deferred action on the renew
al applications to conduct an inves-
tigation as to the character AMI
necessity of places in Keyport This
action, is claimed by those who know
the judge, to be characteristic of
him, and they state he is noted for
his fairness. He gives most careful
attention to the subject of liquor
licenses and seeks to have the best
interests of community served. 1t
has been declared evident here that
the grounds upon which the remon-
STRANGE was based were not sufficient
to cause the court to put the ban on
liquor dealers. The borough cou-
tinues to have thirteen licensed
places. Peace and quietude seem to
have been restored generally.

reported that critical state of
