ADJUSTMENTS.


Capt. T. H. Ruddiman, business
agent of Richards g. MilIard's mu-
sical tourists, called at our Office to-
day. He 10 an enthusiast in his
profession and of course thinks he
has the best company on the road.
During the conversation he said:
Managers and theatrical men have
been lying awake nights for sew
eral years trying to think of some.
thing new to give the amusement
loving public. The result was spec
taculars and large opera companys.
But it soon became a denonstrative
fact that these companys while
all right would not pay the projec-
tors and managers gradually drift
ed back into the old line companies. ;"
Mr.. Ruddiman thinks his company
has solved the problem. He says:
"The public is constantly crying
for something new, and we give
them a class of entertainment never
seen before. and the beauty of it is
that everybody will find something
to please them. If man wants
to grow fat we give him the best
medicine. laughter. Those who
take delight in the pleasures of travel
can revel in the finest architec.
ture and natural features of the
whole world. Those vino enjoy
music can hear the latest selections
from the masters. The art connois.
seur can Judge of the merits OF
masterpieces in sculpture and
painting. Sentiment for the senti.

In short we give an entertain.
ment from which anybody and
everybody can find something ia

and at the right time. The Globe
showed some of it's naturally impo-
tent s'courage" and it fitted this
case.

stances has been willing to do what
little it could for men who had

a longer period. The truth is. this
paper was except alive" prior to
that time by its bidding for patron
age and Offering to do the work for
less than anybody else would do it.
That is the way people had kept us
alive. We always had to bid for
what We got in the way of pat
ronage, and while no man living can
truthfully charge us with ungrate-
fulness, we candidly believed and
believe now that THE T1MEE has
usually done more for others than
others have done for it. when it
comes to this point. The TIMES

something to the community in

OF saving your friends. Then,

FOUR BURNED TO DEATH.
And Many We're Injured in the
Fire on Pier No. SO.

The National Line Steamship Com
pany's dock in New York. at Pier 80.
North River took fire at half-past one
O'Clock yesterday afternoon and burned
nearly to the waters edge. At least four
blackened dead bodies were taken from
the ruins. Many more people were badly
burned, some of whom are likely to die.
IL was the most disastrous fire on the
river front in long time. For two hours
the fire resisted the efforts of nearly the
entire force of engines below Fourteenth
street and seriously threatened the ada
cent piers.
The steamship Holland, belonging to
the National Line Company, lay in her
berth at the north side of the pier when
the fire was discovered. BY quick work
she was removed from her dangerous
position and towed to the Jersey side.
Exactly how the fire occurred is q
mystery, but the officials of the company
think that it was due to spontaneous
combustion among q lot of cotton on the
pier.
The spread of the fire before it was dis
covered, and the confidence Of the dock
laborers that they could extinguish it
without the aid of outside apparatus, gave
the flames O tremendous headway. Beg
fore the men were really aware of their
danger the westerly end of the dock was
burning mass, and such of the laborers
as escaped had to flee for their very lives.
1t was then that most of them were in
iured. Those who did not escape at that
time were overpowered by the smoke and
fell senseless and dying in their tracks.
Three alarms were turned in finally
and the fireboats were summoned. After
strenuous efforts on the part of the fire.
men the flames were subdued at half-past
four o'clock, and the bodies of the four
victims were conveyed to the morgue.
The excitement of the crowd that sur
rounded the place had somewhat abated
One young woman, however, made sew
eral attempts to enter the ruins in search
of her brother, Willie Barry.
For half an hour the attention of the
spectators was divided between her and
the policemen who were endeavoring to
soothe her. Finally she was approached
by man in a checked jumper, who told
her the boy was ali right.
She accepted his assurance with look
of relief and turned away

least the Republicans will try hard not to
make it so. II seems to me that the
majority does not want the Kane bill.
For what reason do not know. It en-

''as The principal result of such a conyen-
ton would be to wipe out that obnoxious
clause in the constitution relative to the

counties of Hudson and Essex ought to

Some effort will be made to amend the
