SOUTH MOT
FERRY DELAY
No Chance of Having Service
to Staten Island by Deco
ration Day
SOrUTH AMBOY. April 11.—The
bright hopes of the completion ot ,
the proposed ferry from this city lo
Staten Island for Decoration Day
are considerably dimmed at this
time. It has been understood that
work on the landings would be
started long before this time, since
Engineer A. T. McMlchaels has com
pleted tho drawing of the plans and
buildings for this side of the water.
The latest rumor about this city
is to the efrect that the Jersey Coast
Ferry Company has sold their fran
chise to the B. * O. Railroad Com
pany. This report, however, could
not be verlflsd.
While the business dealings of the
•ferry company seems to bear con
siderable secrery, it is gathered that
the real obstacle seems to be in ths
acquiring of a strip of chie hundred
feet ot land at the toot of Henry
street, adjoining the Scully estate.
It is thought that the work will be
rushed to completion as soon as this
strip of land question is settled lor
alf.
Officials of the Jersey Coast Ferry
Company ware in this city during
the week consulting with several
persons Interested In the ferry.
