Water dispute over city mains and Wyckoff link
Cord Meyer denies charges by Commissioner Ellison that Citizens' Water Company stole city water. He claims a 1909 reconnection between the city main and Wyckoff Heights mains was done with city notice and later reimbursed, while Ellison defends his findings and urges proof. Pfadenhauer, the plumber, recalls work dated March 1900 tied to Van Nostrand's Stanhope street houses.
