COLD DAY ATSNAKE HILL.
Great Privation and Suffering
Caused by Frozen Pipes.

Fifteen hundred persons at the Snake
Hill institutions have been without water
since five O'Clock this morning. At that
hour 1t was discovered at the Penjten.
tiary that the water supply had
stopped. Warden Grimes was at once
notified and he sent u a gang OF
prisoners and keepers to sound the waite T
pipes. At Tonnele avenue it was ascer-
tanned that the pipes had frozen near
the Pollock bridge aud within the city's
jurisdiction.
The Warden notified the Street and
Water Commissioners OF the accident
and hen sent his men back to the hill tor
hot water TO thaw out The pipe. Before
this could be done the pipe burst and
since then a gang of men connected with
the Street and Water Board have bean
repairing the damage. 1t is thought that
water will be provided some time to-
night.
NO WATER, NO HEAT.
In the meantime there was not water to
feed the boilers at the Penirentiary, aud
the Ares went out. The Aims House
steam provided at the P~enitentiary,
and when tina steam became exhausted d
no heat was provided. There is no heat
now in any OF the buildings, except in
tne Wnere thefe axe cuokihs
ranges.
BAD STATE OF AFFAIRS.
Warden Grimes Of the P~enitentiary
said, today
I'VE are in a terrible condition. The
only water the people in the Almshouse.
Asylum and Penitentiary have had
is what has been carried
in buckets from the Hack
ensack river. Unfortunately the
tide of the river has been so low all the
morning that they could not
pump water from sthe river to the
institutions, but the tide at one
o'clock will be high enough for that pur-
pose. and we will try to supply heal and
water until the break in the pipes is
fixed. We were unable to give
the inmates any food today
accept coffee and bread, and every one
is nearly frozen. The condition is a very
serious one. andif the break is not fixed
before tomorrow it will cause
much trouble. Should one of:the buildings
take fire. nothing could possibly save it,
for there would be no water to fight the
flames With.n

SUGAR BAR0NS MEET.

Concentration of Business Caused Re.
duced Prices, They Say.
The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pany was held at the Office in the refinery
at the corner of Washington and
Essex streets, today. President
H. o. Havemeyer presided. Others
present were Secretary and Treasurer
John E. Searles, Jr.: Directors Z. o.
Matthessen, William Dick, Charles Greet
and John e. Parsons, counsel for n
company. Other stockholders vera
represented by proxies.
The Presidents statement says thai the
volume of business by reducing
the price as far as practicable
has resulted satisfactorily. In the
line of that policy refining properties
in Philadelphia and Baltimore We're
acquired. But for the scale upon which
business has been done 1t would be Inn
possible t furnish refined sugar at pref
yaIing prices. The cholera alarm
threatened a serious check OF the
Importation of raw sugar, and under
ordinary circumstances might have re-
suited in a large advance in price. The
judicious purchase OF large quantities OF
raw sugar contributed to the good
ing Tor Gho year. IaS Du6IuebS uhS uoSA
concentrated as far as possible, and is
conducted with the closest economy.
The Treasurer's report says that
1913, $40, 900 OF additional stock, half co m
mon aud half preferred, has been Issued
for the purchase Of these Philadelphia re-
~ineries.
The ten millions Of 6 per cent. bonds
issued IN January, 1891. are unsold: the
bonds lodged as ecurity I'M
der the reorganization agreement
having been released by

porations were returned to the treasurer.
The net earnings Of the company for the
eleven months ending December l. were
eS,615. 837. SO.
The total surplus now Is "a. 1863. 980.22.

panies whose stock the company holds.
The fiscal year reported on was abort
ened one month by changing The date
Of its termination. John X.

terday afternoon and returned to his
boat at six o'clock. 1t lies On the south
side of the Morris canal basin at

Lizzie welcomed him cordially and asked
him to 80 back and get some bread, as
there was none for supper. He went
ashore for the bread. The boat is out
from the shore with a few canal boats
and is approached by means of a small
scow propelled by a pole.
When Captain Heines got back, his wife
was gone. Her shawl was missing. Every
thing In the cabin was just as
the Captain left 1t. He enquired
Of the occupants of the other boats, but
no one had seen his wife leave or could
account for her disappearance. He
appealed to Captain Farrier of the First

eloped. Today her dead BODY was found
