cape Injury as Drink Crazed

chine-Nabbed After Chase.

The automobile OF Senator Will
liam E. Ramsay, bearing Dr. Ramsay

the Raritan Copper Works, from Me-
tuchen to this city, was stoned early
last night just this side of Rogan s

chine escaped other missiles thrown
by a vagrant. The Woodbridge po-
lice, under Chief Murphy, appre-
hended the man, who was sentenced
to serve ninety days in the county

threw the stones. The man also
made an attack on a machine from
Plainfeld and broke the windshield
with rock, which also knocked the
hat from one of the four occupants
of the machine.

ALDERMEN PLAN
To GIVE MANY
MEN MORE WORK
To Consider Filling in Gregory
Property - Also to Have
Work on City Reservoir
Started in Near Future.

Officials who comprise the street
committee of the Board of Aldermen
believe that they have solved the
problem of giving employment to the
needy heads of families for the re-
mainder of the winter and part OF
the spring, at least. They plan to be-
gin filling In ON the former Gregory
property and urge that the Board or
Water Commissioners proceed with
all speed to construct a reservoir on
the proposed reservoir, site in the
northwestern part of the city. 1t
was pronounced today that plans for
the project of filing in the water
front property, making it serviceable
and thereby give employment to
some men, would be announced In
the course of few days.
Both the city and citizens relief
committee are being commended for
the manner in which they have han
died the unemployment problem to
date. The city has about 100 men
at work on Front street and Amboy
avenue and the poor committee has
about sixty at work on the city S
streets. These are putting the un-
paved streets and sidewalks in better
condition than they were before,
dumps are being kept level and much
other work is being done for the city
at large.
To Serve Two Purposes.
Just what the scheme to fill In the
former Gregory property along Rari-
tan river, between Second street and
Brighton avenue, consists of, VIII not
be made public until Aldermen Chris
Jorgensen, John Kutcher and John j.
Clark, who comprise the committee
on streets and sewers, are ready to
rake an announcement. They pre-
l. st that it is one of the best ideas
sS Established 1 r the improvement
o>1the property and for aiding to
so5fe the unems .oyment question.
They conclude that employment
could be given to several hundred
men IL the water commissioners
would carry out the reservoir idea.
: friaY state that plans are in readi-
ness IL tins. hands of the city engineer
and everything appears in readiness
for procedure, will the water board
but say the word. Chairman Jorgen-
sen, OF the street committee, stated
that no matter how good the city's
water system might be, there was
need of a reservoir for auxiliary use.
He declared that there appeared no
need of fire escapes until a calamity
occurred, and just so with the water
workers; 1t needed no emergency
supply until there came big break
1t is planned to construct a large
reservoir which might hold enough
water for several days.
Out of the one hundred men under
employment by the city besides the
regular street cleaning force, about
eighty are working on the Front
street pavement and about twenty
are improving sidewalk conditions
along Amboy avenue. The latter are
cutting down walks in some places,
sloping off hills to forty-five degree
angle to make the high spots less
dangerous and doing other work to
generally improve the walking con-
ditions thereabouts, particularly for
children who attend public school

Compensation
is Introduced
Special TO the EVENING NEWS.

Special TO the EVENING NEWS
Trenton, Feb. 24:-Assemblyman
Arthur A. Quinn yesterday intro
duced his measure designed to make
the administration of damages to
employees more easy. and take the
matter out of the hands of the courts
of common pleas throughout the
state. Under the act an injured per-
son claiming damages under the en-
ployers' liability act would make his
claim to a workmen's commission,
such as is provided In New York for
the administering of damages to in
jured workmen. This would save the
victim the expense of hiring lawyer
and suing his employer, which now
is generally the result of an employe
being injured The suit is brought
In the court of common pleas and
damages are fixed by the court.
