BLOWING SEVEN GALES
Pedestrians on Exchange Place
Kept Busy Chasing Hats
House on the Hill
Blown Down

The terrific wind storm that began to
sweep through the city this morning
played havoc with a number of things in
its path. 1t shook houses, blew down an
unfinished building, destroyed trees, and
II the ferryhouse at Exchange place was
removed it would have probably swept
some pedestrians into the river.
The wind seemed to spend more energy
on its way through Exchange place than
in any other thoroughfare in this city.
To walk from the ferry was almost an
impossibility, while those going the other
way had all they could do to resist the
efforts of the wind to blow them along
like footballs. Hats of pedestrians were
carried off and the owners had some ex-
citing times in recovering them.
A new house that was almost completed
on Williams avenue, some 800 fet west of
West Side avenue, was blown down. The
mouse came down with a crash and luck
lily the workmen hadn't arrived for tbs
day or great loss of life would have re-
suited. Mr.. James Yemen, who IS the
builder and owner of the house, is con-
structing several houses, and expected 10
have them finished by the first of March
The house that fell was a. three-story
frame, and the sides were completed
when it blew down. A little girl named
Mamie Doyle, who resides on Union
street, was on her way to a neghbor's
house and was just passing the building
when the crash came. She ran back to
West Side avenue, almost scared to death,
and informed Mr. Wisconsin Jackson,

was the beginning of the end of the great
trial which has absorbed the attention of
the public for eight days. According to
the plan agreed on by counsel, Judge
Garretson made the first argument for

There was big crowd in the court room
this morning, and the orchestra chairs
were as usual occupied. For once, the
buzz of conversation among the audience
was not about the trial; the news of the

ECONOMY GONE WRONG.
City Gets the Worst of the Veto of

ers this morning, Wallis, Edwards G. Bumsted
submitted a transcript of judgment, recover
ed in the New Jersey Supreme Court by the
Fagan Iron Works against the city for 81 81,
which, with COSTS amounts to A,3l0T, for
extra iron work the new City Hall. The
Commissioners and the Pagan Iron Works had
agreed to compromise on $780, but Mayor
Hoos vetoed resolution of the Commissioners
to that effect The veto was sustained by the
Commissioners. The Pagan Iron Works then
brought suit against the city The city loses
over $500 by failing to accept the compromise
figures.
In vetoing the resolution of the City Hall
Commissioners, agreeing upon the compromise
figures of IS, 500, Mayor Hoos stated
I have taken this action for the reason
that l am informed that the Pagan Iron
Works are merely subcontractors and thhat
their remedy lies with the original con-
tractor. AS the matter now stands my
opinion is that the city would be best
served by case testing the validity of the
claim in question

sale of the entire property. He also presented

of the firm declared that Mr.. Young had of
fered his services free of charge, and they
thought that his bill was exorbitant. They

WORSE THAN POLICY.
why Does Not Chief Murphy Give
Seine Attention n to Thieves


There are robberdes galore in Green
vile these days. the latest being the
lootng of the house of Mrs. Egner, at
No. 1876 Seaview avenue. The robbery
was kept very quiet until yesterday, as
the police had hopes of catching the
thieves.
The house in which Mrs. Egner lives
is two-story and basement one. Mrs.
Egner lives on the ground floor and an
other family on the second floor. Mrs.
Egner went out to the grocery store be-
tween the hours of six and seven o'clock
Friday, and during her absence the rear
door was forced open and gold watch
and chain valued at $50, and $13 in cash,
were stolen from a bureau drawer in the
dining room. The entire apartment was
ransacked. and a quantity of clothing
was tied up but the thieves were scared
away before finishing their work.
Mrs Egner did not discover her loss
until some time later for, upon her re-
turn from the store, she went in through
the front door and went upstairs to talk
to the family above her
She Immediately notified the police, but
as yet no thieves have been captured.
A thief or thieves entered the apart
ments of John Schmidt, over his saloon,
at No. "a Wales avenue, Marion, last
O'Clock. and stole pocketbook contain
ing a large sum of money. A number
of rings and two gold watches, which
were lying alongside of the pocketbook,
were untouched.
John Schmidt, the owner of the saloon,
is blind and his wife takes care of the
place. She had this money laid away,
she says, to pay the brewery collector,
who was to call the same morning. 1t
was not until twelve o'clock, when Mrs.
Schmidt went upstairs to prepare the
MONDAY meal, that she discovered the
theft. 1t is thought that the robbers
gained entrance by climbing up on the
back shed from the adjoining yard and
crawling in through the window, which
was left open.
The marauder worked very quietly, for
not sound was heard by any one down
