FISHING HAS BEEN POOR FOR U.
C.-THEYRE CASTING AGAIN
The charity trust, - represented in
Chicago by the United Charities, is
thousands of dollars in debt in this
city. Repeated efforts have been
made to get Chicagoans to open their
hearts and their purses, but the raids
on the public have failed this year.
No less than three campaigns have
been started. Not one finished. The
U. c. formerly published the names
Of the mOney-giVers opposite the
amounts they contributed. Recently
fishing has been bad and they no
longer tell us through the newspaper
the names of the fish" they catch.
When the annual report of the U.
G. was made public several months
ago The Day Book gave it publicity.
This because Of the fact that enOr-
nous salaries to officials and inVes-
tigatOrs were taken out of the funds
collected.
Eugene T. Lies, head of the U. c.,
was making $4,000 a year, according
to the report. Investigators were paid
from 1,5OO to $500 a year. Added
up, something like 60 per cent of the
money collected went toward the ex-
penses of and the pay of employees
and officials of the organization. The
remaining 35 per cent was used to
relieve suffering"
The news of this report reached
the public and among this public
were those who have sheIled out to
the U. c. This year when the inVes.
tigators began their fishing trip into
the loop they found the fish" were
not biting.
They decided that their annual re-
port must have scared them away.
Recently they made another report.
Instead Of charging the big salaries
to the operating expenses, which are
deducted from the collections, they

Another Hearing on Removal
of Grade Crossings May be
Necessary, Was Outlook.
NO CROSS EXAMINATION
Have Not Been Served With
Copies of Plans Prepared
by Engineers.
Special to The EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
Newark, May 14::-At confer
ence here today between engineers
employed by the city of Perth
Amboy and Mayor Garretson and
members of the Board of
Aldermen of Perth Amboy. 1t was
decided to submit only the plans con-
templating the elevation of the rail-
roads to eliminate the five grade
crossings already declared dangerous
by the Public Utility Commission.
At the meeting of the Board of
Aldermen last night the members
were unable to agree on whether to
submit plans for elimination by ele-
walton or by depression. 1t was es-
timated by City Engineer Samuel =.
Mason and engineers associated with
him in the work that 1t would cost
about 100000 to have the five
grade crossings eliminated by de-
preston and about 100000 by ele-
vation. The aldermen decided to-
day that the city would likely get
+. more expeditions results by submit
ting to the Board of Utility Com
missioners today the cheaper plan.
The case of the city against the
Lehigh Valley and Central railroads
was called at noon before President
Ralph w. Donges and Commissioner
John w. Slocum, former Judge of
Monmouth county. Commissioner
John ]. Treacy was busy at another
hearing and could not attend the
hearing given by the city
1t became apparent that another
hearing would be necessary before
any definite orders would be made by
the commission, because attorneys
for the railroads declared that they
could not cross-examine witnesses
today because they had not yet been
served with copies of the plans as
prepared by the engineers.
The city's complaint concerning
the Hall avenue bridge and the Cen
trail crossing at Fayette street was
ruled out as not relevant to form
part of the present proceedings ON
complaint of Solicitor Reynolds, of
the Central railroad. The commits
sion agreed that the city would have
to file separate petitions with the
board and let the petitions take their
due course in reference to the new
complaints, prepared last night at
the special meeting of the Board of
Aldermen of Perth Amboy
Engineer J. G. Hocke, of the Gen
eral Engineering Contracting Com
pany, who has been associated with
Mr.. Mason in preparing plans for the
elimination of the grade crossings,
was the first witness called for the
city in Perth Amboy's efforts to show
a feasible method for elimination of
the five grade crossings by eleva
tion.

WHY ERRORS IN NEWSPAPERS
Reporterial and Mechanical Work
Under Stress.

1t is the custom of many to censure
the newspapers severely for mistakes
that they make. This would not be so
common if the critics would consider
the vast quantities of matter they
print, and the difficulties under which
much of their information is obtained.
mistakes are made it is true,n says
the New York Times, one of the most
careful of newspapers. "They are in
evitable. But with the stress and strain
imposed upon the reportorial, editorial
and mechanical forces of a newspaper,
the never-ending battle against time,
the struggle to get at the truth when
frequently every channel seems to be
closed and every effort made to sup
press facts, and with the various pro-
cesses that must be employed before
the fragmentary information gathered
by the reporters is transformed into the
published article, the wonder is not
that errors are made, but that they are
not far more common and consequential
IN their nature. So much emphasis has
been laid on accuracy that the degree
of proficiency, under the circumstances
that prevail and which cannot be al
tered, is nothing short of marvellous. II
is one of the wonders of a wonderful
age. -
