WAGONS Tralfk Delayed ind Baslaess Interfered With By Slowness of Drivers, Parlkilarly Coal Men, and Police-CD Fall to Enforce Cily Ordlmee Mncb Complaint Heard On All Sides and Citizens Propose to Dave Rights Respected. Notwithstanding the fact that the Police Department of Trenton Is vested with authority to prevent streets fom being blocked by coal and other vehicles by railroad trains for i greater period than four minutes, com plaints are constantly being nrwle to thin office by letters from reputable citizens of hold-ups to traffic by wagons or trains for periods ranging anywhere from ten to twenty-five minutes. Just at this time most of the complaints concern coal wagons and a specific Instance Is that on last Friday a coal wagon blocked trolley traffic on West State street, between 2 30 and 3 o'clock In the afternoon, for more than 21 minutes, actual time This blockade caused a dozen passengers of a trolley car to miss trains to carry them to Important engagements and demoralized the schedule of the cars of the Trenton Street Railway Company. One of the schedule Interrupting effects was that two Prospect street cars were so delayed In time that Instead of making the trip up Prospect street they were turned at Prospect and State streets and sent back down town in order to get on schedule COAL WAGONS BT.AMED. Every day some one complains that traffic Is blocked on streets traversed by trolley cars.

Practically all of the hlnrlraripo by Coal Dlrvers of wagons seem to be kings of the highways as compared to trolley cars When crews of the cars tiy to have the laws of the city obeyed they usually get a line of abusive talk from the drivers. Persons who use trolley cars con tlnually complain that the conditions are almost Intolerable at times and that policemen are very seldom "on the job" to attend trt the enforcement of the laws It Is also held that many of the policemen are ignorant of the fact that In the trollev ordinance of the city there Is a specific and unmistakable provision that wagons shall not delay cars for a M' eater period than LAWYER CHOSEN IN Linton Satterthwait Will Appear Before the State Railroad Coi ft mission Oct. 29 The Freight Committee of the Cham ber of Commerce today selected Counselor Linton Sattertftiwalt to represent it before the New Jersey Kirilway Commission on October 29, at whtch tine the state body will give a hearing to shippers of Trenton relating to a transfer system within the city limits beMeen the Pennsylvania and Readr Ing railroads The committee Is headed by John A Campbell, general manager of tire Trenton Potteries Company end president of the Trenton Banking Company.

four minutes. Among policemen the opinion prevails that drivers of -wagons may block trlfflc for a length of time, and that such a period can be a from ten minutes to half an hour Such an opinion, according to information from the office of the City Clerk, Is unsound One of Trenton 5 business men was delayed for minutes a few dds ago because a trolley car was held up by a coal wagon He holds that Irregularity of the trolley service is due more to illegal blocking of traffic then to any other cause He suggests that the Chief of Police communicate by letter to coal dealers and Inform them ex- actl the provisions of the trolley ordinance and that then If the blocking continues the emplojers shall be held responsible for the acts of their agents The protests at this time come from such sources that they cannot long be ignored, and unless the police act voluntarily It Is highly probable that some powerful complaint will be lodged with Common Council i the end In view of stirring up the proper authorities to the activity which taxpayers mav expect of them The law governing trolley traffic 1s- contalned In an ordinance approved June IS, 1905, and entitled "An ordinance concerning the operation 01 street railway cars The clause of the ordinance relating to blockading traffic Is contained In sactlon 6 and Is as follows "It shall be unlawful for any person or persons to drive horse or horses cart or carts or any other vehicle upon or across the tracks of any street railway company within this cltv, whether for the purpose of loading or unloading any merchandise, or for any other purpose whatsoever, and suffer or permit the same there to remain In such a manner as to interfere with the running of any car of such company, for a period exceeding four minutes, or by any other means whatsoever to obstruct the running of such car for a greater period of time than four minutes."
