FIREMEN TO BE RESPONSIBLE
Commissioners Propose to Stop Dis
graceful Conduct.

The Fire Commissioners last night
advanced August Girard from hoseman-
at-call of No. 10 Engine to stoker. of that
company. Michael Harley was appoint
ed hoseman-at-cal1 to succeed Girard
E. D. Kerr was appointed to a simil-
ar position on No. 9 Engine. Chief Con-
way reported tha losses by fire during
the past month amounted to SAC, 1902. OF
$1O5, 1926 insurance on damaged buildings,
s39. 1872 was paid.
An amendment to the rules governing
the Board was submitted by President
Brennan. It holds members of the de-
partment responsible for their conduct,
whether on a leave of absence, or Off
duty temporarily. The rule is to pre-
vent the repetition of alleged d~isgraceful
occurrences on the streets in which
firemen off duty have been implicated.
Inspector of Horses, Arrowsmith, re-
ported that the death of one of the
horses of No. 1 Engine was due to the
carelessness of the men of that COM
pany. The horse had been given part of
his feed, taken out and exercised until
thoroughly warmed up,and then allowed
to eat the remainder of the feed, while
warm. The members of the company
are to be severely .reprimanded.
fifty miles of insulated copper wire, were
rejected, it having been found that a

I;ehf Weight a Feature of Wooden Goods.
irish Pcpiins Revived-New Silks.
The new woolens for autumn dresses
commend themselves by their exceed
ingly light weight. This lightness is a
feature Of various goods-as camel's
hair. ladies' cloth, covert cloth and
crepon-and is a great boon to the
wearer, as skirts of dresses are now SO
generally lined and interlined that they
become too heavy for comfort even in
midwinter if made of weighty fabrics.
Plain colors, mixtures of two or three
colors and clouded effects are among the
new goods. Small figures are preferred
to large. Narrow stripes lengthwise,
bayadere and diagonal. neat checks or
blocks and some plaids are shown In
dull and in bright colors. though not in
Scotch tartans. The peculiar blue called
bluet appears in all materials, and there
are many bronze shades, with green
prevailing in some and brown in others.
The newest materials are double
stufRs, two fabrics owe together, yet
scarcely heavier than summer goods.
Thus the outside is Of crepon, puckered
or in cross stripes, attached TO a Q
ground of entirely different weaving,
which holds the puffy raised crepon de-
sign in permanent place. The back is
usually black and is in loose canvas
weaving. These stuffs come in all the
new blue shades and green, in violet,
purple and in ruby and purplish reds.
1t is rumored that Irish poplins are to
be revived for winter dresses, especially
for skirts to be WORN with various waists
in the way MORE has been this season.
For tailor gowns are neat mixtures OF
silk and wool, with tiny dots Or stitches
of silk Of bright color showing ON a
smooth wool surface.
The new list of silks begins with black
of various weaving, as black is at pres
ent chosen by women Of fashion, and is
always worn by those of small means.
Satins and peau de sole of satin weave,
with demiluster, are the most reliable
plain black silks. There is a tendency,
however, to fancy weaving, to stripes
and figured silks.
A soft black silk Of moderate price
called aroguet, or drugget, has extreme
ly small designs Of colors, some merely
lance, or specked with color, while
others have tiny sprigs Of brilliant hues.
Repped silks with brilliant luster are
coming into favor again. That called
gros de londres is a revival of the lus-
trous small repped silk wor 20 years
ago and is figured with small. designs,
sprigs and dots, explains Harper's Ba-
Ear, the authority quoted.
Taffetas are shown again for evening
dresses, with small designs of flowers
brocaded on light grounds and SO per-
fectly woven that each seems to have
been wrought with the needle. Blurred
chine designs In stripes Of rosebuds and
other small flowers are new this season,
and there are also plisse taffetas that
look like shirred silks with narrow pufs
between fatty woven stripes. The new.
est damasks have ribbon designs in loops
of satin of contrasting color and in
stripes with festoons and trellis pat
terms.

arters with the Tremens.

Conrad Detmering, thirty-seven years
old, of No. 81 Harrison street, Hoboken,
walked into Hoboken Police Headqnar-
tiers late yesterday afternoon and said
he wanted to be protected from those
seeking his life.
The Sergeant asked him who he meant,
when the man suddenly sprang back and
pointing to the wall exclaimed:-"Take
her away. For Gods sake take her
away. She's going to kill me-"
That settled it, and it did not require
the subsequent gyrations and yells of Mr.,
Detmering to, convince DR.. Simon when
called in that the young man was a
superior case of delirium tremens. The
Doctor gave him some medicine to quiet
him. but it had no effect, and Detmering
was finally sent to the County Jail.
