OVER AGAIN
Board of Works Postpones Ac-
tion for Two Weeks-Mass
Meeting Billed.

The Board of Works voted today to
defer final action on the proposition
to extend and widen Central avenue
from Broad to Market streets for two
weeks, to give Mayor Raymond an
opportunity to make up his mind as
to what he will do in regard to the
matter.
The action was taken at the request
of delegation of twenty business and
labor men. Edward Blau, a real ee-
tate man and property owner, was
the principal speaker, saying people
were not opposed to high taxes when
value was received for them. He said
he was one of delegation which had
waited upon Mayor Raymond urging
him to withdraw his opposition to the
project, and was told that the mayor
was not ready to say at that time
what he would do.
There is going to be a mass meet
ing in favor of the matter" said Mr..
Blau, land tell you. gentlemen, the
police will be needed to handle the
crowd who will want to voice their
approval of the improvement"
Leopold Jay spoke In similar vein
and urged the need of as much work
as possible Immediately for the un-
employed.
The board also decided to lay over
for another week the veto Of Mayor
Raymond on the pavement Of South
Broad street. This action was taken
after william s. RICHTER asked for
more time in which to secure sigma
lures against the pavement. When

BERLIN ENTHUSED
OVER DEFENSE OF
THE DARDANELLES
Turkish Forts Strengthened
Greatly When War Began.
German Public Learns.

BERLIN, via The Hague, March 25.
Depression in Berlin incidental to
the fall of Przemysl has been offset
by the official claims that the success
of the allies attack upon the Darda
nelles is utterly impossible upon the
present basis.
The Berlin public learned for the
first time today that the Turkish de-
fenses at the strait were strengthened
tremendously at the outbreak Of war
making them almost impregnable.
Concealed inland batteries, armed
with German guns, and now manned
by German artillerymen, were con-
structed. These have been so skill
fully masked that the allies aviators
have been unable to locate them. Thus
far, according to reports reaching
here, the Anglo French warships have
destroyed only the old shore batteries.
They have not even attacked the real
problem that must be solved before
the way is clear to Constantinople
And military experts here are of the
opinion that only land attacks by
huge forces simultaneous with a de-
termined bombardment by the Anglo
French fleet can even bother the hid
den defenders Of the internal bat
teries. Revelations of this unlocked
for strength of the Turks has greatly
enthused the German public. In every
quarter another defeat for the allies
comparable TO the sinking of the Eng
lish and French bRttleships one week
ago today is confidently awaited

City Comptroller Tyler Parmly to-

New York. The rates of interest
were 2.84, with premium Of SO for
half the sum and 2.7S, with a pre-

Only one Newark bid was received.
The Federal Trust Company offered
to take the issue at 9 per cent, with

The rate of interest at which New

sidered more than good. At the COM

was charged, and for many months
per cent. was the best rates that
could be received. Mr.. Parmly stated

the city is shown by the rate of in
