in the general store OF James \. Adams,
and in IN incredibly short time the en-
tire building was cnvcloped in flames.
How tho lire originated can only be
conjGcturcd, but the general opinion
seems TO be that it started from dc.
iuctivc iluO or an exploded lamp.
Mr.. Adams entire stock OF goods,
valued Mt about 5000, was destroyed.
1t was insured for $1,000. The building
was Il large brick structure owned by u
Chicago man, and was Insured Tor only
5000. 1t was almost miraculous
escape for the entire north side OF the
street. For time 1t seemed IN inn
possibility to gave the hotel and store
belonging 20 4. W. Watson, and other
buildings near the fire, but the mon,
women and children OF the town turned
out aud fought the iiro-liend like veteran
ilremen, combining it to the one building
burned.
4 Young man named William Mercer,
while resisting the efforts OF the flames
TO iastcn on i two.story dwelling, fell
from the roof to the ground, sustaining
serious. though possibly not fatal, in
jurica. DR.. &. II. Colville was overcome
by heat while getting tho papers and

To-day the place where the principal
business OF tho town was formerly
transacted is marked by smoking ruins.

Glass workers Wages as Low as Ever In
Spite of the Tariff

4N1fc@
ATLANTIC CITY, July 49, 1s01.-The
joint conference OF the Wage Committee
of Local Assembly No. 3Oo K. Of l., win
dow-glass workers. and a committee rep
resenting the window-glass manufactur-
ers, organized here Friday. The business
was TO arrange the scale of wages for tue
ensuing year.
These conferences are held annually
after the July fires are drawn. There are
no non-union window-workers in this
county. All efforts to introduce French
and Belgian workmen at various times
and places have failed. The present Wage
Committee, therefore, represents the
bio wers, gatherers, cutters and fatteners.
The sessions OF the conference are secret,
and the members are very reticent.
II Is not likely that any change viii be
made in the existing scale. There may
be some minor alterations but 1t is under
stood that they will not urge an advance.
The natural gas excitement IN Pennsyl-
vanIa and Onio inflated the window
glass business, and il is now getting back
To its normal condition. The outlook
for the trade Is good for this year. and the
workmen want TO know why the pro-
tected monopolists do not give them more
share of the advantage. John E Eber-
hart is president and j. s. Coke secretary
Of the committee. Both are from Pitts
burg. The local representatives Of the
glass workers are Thomas KEENAN,, S.

phia, Emil Hertz Of Plymouth. Pa w. A

NORTH aUDsoN'S DOUBLE TRACK

Property Owners Say It Would Ruin
Grove Street -Pinal Action Thursday.
q The prospects are that IL the North
Hudson County Surface Railway Com
pany is given permission to lay double
tracks on Grove street between Ten th
and Twelfth streets. the action of the
Board viii be certioraried by the proper :
ty owners on that street.
This morning remoustrance was hled
with the Street and Water Board against
the granting of such power The prop
in Grove street is now only thirty feet
wide. The use of so much OF the street
as would be necessary for double track
would leave only eight feet and two
inches, at most, on each side
OF said tauck, and the effect Of
this would WORK very great damage
and ruin TO property in that vicinity
The properly owners in conclusion stat e
that while the privilege might
accommodate the Railroad Company i,
the public would not be benefited
by it and private property would
be greatly injured aud in some cases
absolutely ruined. The remonstra nee
is signed by William T. Mclaughlin,
acting pastor Of St. Lucy's Church; Henry
Klaus, Nell Campbell, Mary O'Sulliyan.
John Kennedy, Honora Heruhy, NJ
O'Brien. William Colligan, Jacob Pein,
Elizabeth Hollis pnd others.
The matter was referred for further in
yestigation TO the Committee Of
the Whole. An ordinance has been drawn
up and decisive action will be taken at q
special meeting Thursday morning.
