Armed Men Prevent Penn.
sylvania From Laying
Tracks at Harrison
Kearny Link Sought
Railroad Wants to Open Line
to New Manufacture
ing Centre

HARRISON, n. J., Sept. 16.-Twenty-
five armed guards arc patrolling the
Lincoln Highway tonight in the mile
stretch between the Hackensack and
Passaic rivers to prevent the Pcnnsyl-
vania Railroad from crossing it with its
rails, which are now laid to within fifty
feet of the road The track is to be the
connection between the main line Of the
Pennsylvania at this town and the
plants Of the Ford Automobile Com
pany, the United States Steel Corpora
ton, the Federal Shipbuilding Com
pany and the Foundation Company,
which have sprung UP on the Kearny
meadows south OF the highway.
The railroad is set upon this route
and it is said that no other direct con-
nection with the new manufacturing
centre is possible. The Freeholders of
Essex and Hudson counties. which built
and support the highway. have refused
permission to cross il at grade. A
grade crossing on a road which tonight
was travelled by more than 300 auto
mobiles in an hour. would be death
trap, they declare.
Unable to Raise Tracks
II is doubtful whether the railroad
could elevate its tracks at such a
crossing or tunnel beneath the road.
Either project would be a most expen-
sive one. The road traverses marsh,
and has now settled into position, so
that it is stable, but an attempt to bur
row beneath it might, the Freenolders
believe. completely ruin the road. ms
same marsh would make an attempt 10
elevate the tracks difficult and cnor-
mously expensive.

that the menacing tracks were only

.Japan's Mission
Lays Wreath on
Grave of Perry
Ceremony Impressive as
Count lshii Bows Before
Tomb at Newport

NEWPORT, R. l., Sept. l6.-The
japanese Mission to the United States
came here to-day to do homage at the
grave of Commodore Matthew Gal
braith Perry, who opened the door OF
the island empire TO the influences OF
Western civilization sixty years ago.
The mission, headed by Niscount
Ishii, entered the cemetery through a
lane of apprentice seamen and Naval
Reserves standing at present arms,
while a band from the training station
played the japanese national hymn. A
great crowd of soldiers, sailors and
civilians barred their heads in silence
as Viscount Ishii stepped forward and
placed on the tomb Of the commodore
a large wreath made up in the colors
Of Japan, with white lilies and red
gladioli.
An Impressive Ceremony
Retiring a few PAGES, the viscount
bowed profoundly before the tomb and
resumed his place in the semi-circle
formed by other members of the mis-
sion and naval officers. One by one
each member of the mission stepped
forward silently and bowed low before
the grave. As the last one paid his
tribute Bishop James De Wolf Perry,
of the Episcopal Diocese Of Rhode
Island. offered a brief prayer. Then
the entire assembly stood at attention,
while the band once more played the
japanese national anthem and THE
Stsr-Spangled Banner"
The ceremony was impressive. The
only address was by Bishop Perry. II
was given when the mission had fled
into Perry Circle, where the commO-
dore lies buried. 1--WE have cherished,
among other things" he said. "the
close ties that have held US together,
bonds of friendship that have often
been put to the test, but which are
stronger now because they have been
put 10 the test. You have confirmed
in the heart of every true American
the belief that the principles which
YOU and America hold in common will
result in an alliance that will last
for years TO come.
Alliance a Stronger Bond
81 believe that our friendship is even
SUI Dl Btl NO-AdN l4G4l IL mas Dttli III NllC
past In the alliance against the com
mon foe there will be stronger bond,
and il gives promise OF a lasting and
glorious peace"
The Bishop closed with tribute to
the Japanese Emperor and TO the tradi-
tional hospitality and courtesy Of the
japanese nation. As he finished Wis
count Ishii stepped forward and shook
hands warmly with few words Of ap-
probation.
The mission arrived from Phila-
delphia this morning, and was well
coined TO the state by J. Henry Reuter-,
executive secretary TO Governor r. Liv-
inGston Beeckman. by Mayor Clark
Burdick in behalf of the city, and by
the commandant of the Second Naval
District, Captain S. F. Bryan, and vari-
Gus other naval and military COM
manderS.
During their stay here the party will
be the guests Of members of the sum
mer colony, including Captain Perry
Belmont, a descendant of Commodore
Perry.

WAR TAXES A PUZZLE

The working out of plan for the collection of war taxes in connection with the sale of railroad tickets and the payment of freight charges has presented a number of points which are puzzling the legal departments of the carriers. Among the questions which have arisen is whether a tax is collectable in the case of delivery of merchandise to the consignee be- fore November 1. the date on which the war tax goes into effect, but which is paid for few days after the 1st as is customary in making collections. Another point raised with reference to shipments which are made and pre- paid before the first of the month but which are delivered after the first of the month Will consignor be called upon 10 pay the per cent war tax. or will the consignee, or will either? An opinion from the legal department Yas expected on these and similar points raised by the local office of the E. P. and s. W.
