ADDED ALARM To
WATER FAMINE
IN COUNTY SEAT
Special to the EVENING NEWs.

W
New Brunswick, Oct. 6: - New
Brunswick's water famine continues,
and at such rate that the Board of
Water Commissioners, the Board of
Health and the firemen are becoming g
alarmed over the possible conse-
quences of continued drought,
such as the city has experienced for
the last five weeks. The huge pump
ing engines at the factory Of johnson
& Johnson are pumping about 50O,-
600 gallons Of water daily into the
city mains, but when it is considered
that the average daily consumption
here is about 100000 gallons, this
assistance is appreciated but not suf-
ficient. The Board of Health has
ordered another chlorine plant, on a
rental basis, to be installed for
emergency at the Johnson & John
son plant.
Despite frequent warnings there
is not an appreciable decrease in the
daily consumption. Four local peo-
pie have suffered because of their
neglect of the warnings, and their
water supply cut off. They were
found indulging in the midsummer
pastime of sprinkling their lawns.
Thousands of New Brunswickers
journeyed out to the Weston's mills
watershed Sunday to view the alarm
ing conditions there. 1t Is under
stood that the Board of Health will
provide for the cleaning of the pond
while the supply Is low, thus reaping
a benefit from the Ill wind.
AS an illustration Of the situation
as summed up by the ffremen. As
sistant Chief Louis Sass has suspend
ed Charles Feaster, engineer of En-
gine Company No. for disobedfence
Chief Sass has notified all men that
the weekly relief day will be dis
pensed with, pending the drought,
until further notice, because of the
likelihood of hampered work at any
large fire because of the low water
pressure. Feaster disobeyed, 1t is
said, and enjoyed his holiday Satur-
day. The fire commissioners will
hear the case

WHAT : HOLDING
UP PAVING JOB, ;
QUERIES WILSON

Delays in the awarding of con-
tract for paving New Brunswick ave-
nue. involved a squabble at the regu-
lar meeting of the Board of Alder
men last night. Alderman William
c. Wilson, of the first ward, wanted
to know why the contract could not
be awarded, He said he supposed if
the pavement was for asphalt blocks.
it would nave gone through long ago.
The making of errors in assessments
for street improvements, with sug-
gestion for Improvement for the ben
eft of both property owners and the
city, was among the subjects which
came before the aldermen.
Mr. Wilson appeared indignant as
he questioned the street commit
tees work In connection with the
New Brunswick avenue paving con-
tract Chairman John j. Clark, of
that committee, stated that the COM
mittee had no report. Later he said
1t was not prepared to make re-
port. Mr. Wilson said it looked as
though the committee was not going
to report He maintained it was
queer that when local contractors bid
less for grading, less for concrete and
less for curbing than the Hastings
Pavement Company did, they could
not secure the contract, but the
Hastings concern, makers of asphalt
block pavements, could. The first
ward alderman continued to state
that the city engineer had told MIN
that tests of brick had been made
and the bricks found to be of good
quality. Mr. Clark then Indignantly
told the first ward member that the
report of tests were in his pocket, but
not properly signed. Mr.. Wilson S
reply was that the engineer had said
they were. Mr.. Wilson said the out
portion of the avenue had been i'm
proved well, but the lower section
was in a deplorable condition.
Alderman John Kelly said it was a
ticklish proposition to finance the
paving Job at this time. Mr., Wilson
said it was no more tickl1sh now
than when the project was first start
ed. He said notes had been foated
for other jobs and the same could be
done in this case if necessary.
Passage of resolution to correct
an error in the assessment for the
Miller and William streets sewer ex-
tensions caused a discussion upon
several alleged errors in such as
easements. Mr.. Clark said that
when errors were corrected as in in
stances pointed to, there was
shortage in the amount necessary
for the improvement and the city
must be the loser, as he was at a
loss to know where the deficit
amount was to come from. He de-
cIared that the section of the law

0UACKENBUSH
OPPONENT Of
QUACKENBOSS
New Entry in Race for County
Clerk as Progressive Repub-
ICan Causes Interesting
Confusion of Names.

Both joy and CONSERVATION were
expressed in political circles yester-
day when William A. Quackenbush,
of Madison Township, filed a petit
tion as a candidate for county clerk
as a Progressive Republican. The
name is similar to that of the iude-
pendent Democratic candidate for
the office, William II. Quackenboss,
of New Brunswick. 1t was stated
among some prominent Democrats
In this city today that the move was
probably taken by some friends of
County Clerk B. M. Gannon's to off
set what damage Quackenboss
might in regular Democratic ranks
and also to endeavor to make Quack-
enboss candidacy joke. 1t was
generally declared that the similar
ity in names would serve to injure
Quackenboss' chances of doing Sc
rious harm to the regular Demo-
cratic nominee.
1t seems to be the general impress
sion among politicals followers that
William H. Quackenboss became an
Independent Democratic candidate
for the sole purpose of injuring
County Clerk Gannon's chances for
reelection. The filing of another
petition yesterday by one Progress
sive Republican, listing himself as
William H. Quackenbush. came as
a stunning surprise to many follow
ers of the political game. Many
smiled upon the act, others frowned
upon It, Mixed feeling of JOY and
CONSERVATION was expressed, but the
greater number seemed to take the
move good naturedly. Many thought
the act huge juke and spoke freely
upon probabilities in the outcome,
Plan County Campaign.
Ways and means for the best
method of conducting the Democra-
tic campaign in Middlesex county
were taken up and discussed at
length at a meeting of county candi-
dates with County Chairman Thomas
H. Hagerty in the latter's Office ir
New Brunswick yesterday afternoon
Decision was deferred pending an,
other meeting of the Democratic
County Committee in the near
future. There will be no opposition
to Alderman John J. Clark in his
race for reelection on the Democra.
tic ticket in the fifth ward Charles
Dorsey and his brother were induced
to refrain from fling the former :
petition as an Independent Democra-
tic candidate for alderman in the

Berr ard M. Cannon. The county
clerk produced figures from the rec
ords to show the financial gain in

ments come in the face of accusa-
tions Of extravaganza made by Will

ocratic candidate for county clerk.

while there was no charge for furni-
ture In 1911.
New systems have been installed
and old systems previously neglected,
were brought up to date when Mr..

ont. the county received no returns
from the county clerks office and
on the contrary paid out thousands
of dollars annually for its mainten-
auce In addition to fees paid to the
clerk. The amounts paid out then
were: 1905, 5000; 1905, $4,-

The cash balance of the present
administration is s24,325.66. The
amount paid out for furniture, cases.
ypewriters, etc, brings the balance
up to t29,626.41, which together
with the amount previously paid by
the county makes the net gain $62,-
