ORDER 8 CENT FERRY FARE.
nepgen County Fr-chOIders Take
Steps for Fort Ire boats.

HAcKENsAcK. y. j.. June 1.-THE
Bergen County Board OF Freeholders at
special meeting In Hackensack this
afternoon, passed resolution offered by
Jack l.. Fox, ordering the Public Service
Corporation OF New Jersey. owning the
Fort Lee ferry. to reduce the present
fare OF five cents to three cents, the order
20 go into effect on June o5.
Tho special meeting was intended orig
inally for a hearing on the question. but
eince the time the meeting was called
the United Supreme Court has decided
that board of freeholders have power to
regulate ferry rates in their districts
where Congress didn't act. This decision
made the hearing unnecessary.
Before the resolution was offered ex-
Senator Edmund W. Wakelee. counsel
for the Public Service Corporation, asked
the freeholders to delay final action until
the New York city Dock Department, the
Public Service and freeholders could con-
fer. consider the ferry's valuations, its
receipts and expenses and then fix a rate
accordingly. Senator Wakeee said the
ferry company was operating under a
New York city license and the fare was
fixed by the New York officials. who also
received Il certain per cent, Of the ferry
receipts.
"I will apply AT once to the United
states courts for an Injunction to re-
strain the Bergen County Board of Free
holders from compelling tho ferry COM
rany to reduce their fare on June 20"
said Mr.. Wakelee.
Some of the freeholders were angry
when they heard that IL they reduced
the ferry fare the Public Service would
side and make all collections on the New
York side; also that the reduced fare
would spoil the chances of getting "A new
100000 ferryboat and viaduct from
the hill at Edgewater over the River road
so the upper decks OF the feryboats.
