Removal of Cars from the Barns May Even Be Prohibited— Officials Determined to Have Better Service, ‘West Hoboken, N. J., has gone back- ward ten years, and its %,000 inhabi- q fants glory in the retrogression. Mayor Thomas Nolan, chairman of tthe Town Council, which repealed the trolley franchise Wednesday night, to- Gay‘ gave The Evening World an out- dine’of the process determined upon by which the Uttle municipality will rid ‘tself of poles, tracks and other prop- es of the Public Service Corpora- a “After the five days required by law ve passed.” said Mayor Nolan, “the will halt every trolley car that ‘ters the town. We will not permit a car to go through the place.

Our Chief of Police, John McAulay, has his orders to stop the cars, and they will be stopped. Already we have stationed patrolmen in the vielnity of the sheds, fearing trouble there.” ‘he car sheds cover two entire blodks along Spring street between Elm and Angelic Cry Valuable properties are stored Mhesé buitdtings. ' ‘Here’ will, be the centre of trouble,” pald Chief McAulay, © “The policy addpted by the present management of discharging old employees has greatly incensed public sentiment. I doubt: if there are ten old man on the line. The discharge of men for no other reason than their membership in the union greatly complicates the situation, and rough times are ahead. Prepnred to Carry Out Orders, Chief McAulay has a unifornied police force of thifty-two patrolmen and eight officers, who work under the three- platoon system, Capt, Walter 8.

Seeing the flames shoot from the box the passengers became excited and ran for the rear door. With consider- able presence uf mind Conductor John McDonald stepped inside the car, closed the doo: d bolted them.

While the car was making its wild run the conductor repeatedly assured the passengers there was little di in the car, but that if they triéd to jump off they would probably be se- verely injured.

Not that there is any salary atached to the job, but it allows a man to wear a large and awesome badge and garbs him with police au: thority, @ possession especially cher- ished by residents of the Pickleville section. For years it has been the established for his badge, This has been a little perquisite for the Sheriff. It keeps him in clgars for.his term of office. Joe Meyrrose, a wealthy truck far rule of sheriffs to charge each deputy $5 | so1 mer, of Newtown Creek, who has just been elected Sheriff of Queens, has sent consternation Into the ranks of e deputies by announcing that this year's badges will cost $25 each and that each deputy must be bonded tn $5,000. The explanation of this radical departure from traditional lines is that Meyrrose 1s worth $200,000 himself and has heen Upped off that n certain element in the county have been waiting for years for a rich man to be elected Sheriff in order to got mixed up in some profitable lit- igation with him. ‘This has scared Meyrrose, He doesn't nt to throw up his new job and he n't want to give the community a whack at his bank roll. So he has de- cided that as the mental peace of a Sher- if depends largely on the conduct of his Goputios, he will have none but respon- sible deputies, and that these must give jarantee for their good behavior. The in the price of get ex- plains, is not because he wants the order to stay the mad money, but in Yor power that always Sheri rush follows the eleotion of a new Sherif.
