MIGRANTS USELESS.
Bayonne Firemen Unable to Gel
Water to Quench Fire.
Dig Plaster Factory and Three
Other Buildings Destroyed.
A Suspicious Fire Last Week Adds
to the Mystery.


BERGEN POINT, N. j., Aug. D.--The
Eastern Plaster Board Company's
buildings, covering three acres a, a
point where Newark Bay meets the XIII
Won Kull, were destroyed by fire at
o'clock this morning. The fire started
In one of the sheds adjacent to the main
building, and spread with such rapid
lily that the whole fire department OF
Bayonne was unable to arrest II.
II rs believed by many that the FIRE
was the work of an organized gang OF
incendiaries. This theory Is supported
by the recent attempt Of fire bugs to
destroy the grand stand of the New
! j ersey.Athletic Club, which Is within a
stones throw Of the Plaster Board fac
tory
Last Thursday the steward OF the
Athletic club discovered candle
stuck into the ground beneath the grand
stand. 1t had evidently been placed
there to burn down the place. Fortu-
nately, however, a gust OF wind had
ex,insuished the candles flame before
II had more than scorcned the beams.
Another ground for the belief that the
burning OF the Plaster Board WORKS
vas the act OF ,s an incen1,as Txenuc 'h
situated respectively at FIRST Second
and Third streets, could not be worked
by the firemeu of the f1re-engines, which
RESPONDED to The alarms sent out. Only
one, that OF the Independent tompany
succeeded In getting water from a by
drant on the County Boulevard, l,SJo
yards away from the burning buildings.
BY that time the fire had run nnt
through the whole place. and the soil.
tary stream turned upon IT was turned
into steam before II reached the flames.
When the MIGRANTS were finally cleared,
by having their valves chopped OF with
axes, all hope for saving the Plaster
Board Works had vanished, and the fire
men contented themselves with saving
the adjoining property, the nearest OF
which Is a dwelling house. several hun
drei feet away.
AT 2 o'clock this afternoon, there were
still sporadic areas of lire In various
parts of the smoulderins ruins. The
there was nothing within reach OF these
6res- that could serve as further fuel
There was ruinor that the Eastern
Plaster Board Company's property was
to hive been sold at auction this after
noon. George ". Sessions, one of the
Company's directors, said that this ru-
NOR was false.
The damage To the buildings is about
10000, ana to the STOCK about $1,000.
Both are fully insured. Mr., SESSIONS &C
counts for the disabled condition Of the
hydrants on the ground that they had
been used by inexperienced men work
ing as PAYERS on the County Boulc-
ward. This 10 not however, the gener-
ally received opinion.
The factory, had not been In opera
ton for over month.

to Escape Spreading Flames.


A tongue OF flame shooting up through
the floor OF trolley car 3.iF. Of the cross
town line. when al the junction Of Jora,e-
mon and Court streets. Brooklyn. this
morning, caused panic among the pas
sengers.
The woodwork Of the car had ignited
by spark from the mJtor-box and In
a few seconds smoke began to pour out
of the cracks IN the floor.
Before the tnotorman could shut OF
the power men and women commenced
10 jump into The street regardless OF
tne danger OF slipping under the wheels.
\ small crowd gathered around the
car wnen 1t was finally brought to a
standstiil. Several men carried buckets
OF water from stores In the vicinity,
but the motorman refused to use the
water. He said 1t would ruin the SiUJ
motor.
the conductor ripped up the charred
boards on the bottom OF the car and
tarpaulin coat. He finally succeeded in
smotheriny the iirc with a blanket, but
not until the flames had burned the
wood about the motor box and ruined
the conductors tarpaulin.
In the mean time all the Court street
ears we're blocked down to the Fulton
street junction.

tor box OF car caught FIRE while II
