FELL IN HOLD OF SC0W.

Wednesday night about 9. 30 o'clock
while John Heck was packing fish in
barrels, for shipment on the Central
train, on board of Andrew Forman s
brick scow, lying beside the borough
dock, lady on the dock heard a cry
apparently coming from the hold of
the scow, and, getting nervous over
it, she called out to one of the men
that someone must have hurt himself.
Finally the men took lanterns and
looked down in the hold of the scow
and discovered a. boy.
. He had been going along with q
string of fish and when passing the
hold had fallen into it. Two of the
men held another man while he reach
ed down and pulled the lad up. He
said his fathers name was Chris
Kelley and he lived in Augusta street.
He hurt his side when he fell.

BOYS WERE LEFT.

The employees of the large Otis
machine factory, of Yonkers, had an
excursion to Sea Breeze Saturday.
Mrs. Thomas Baker grandson, Willie
Ferguson Jr., was one of the excur-
sionists. and as his mother was visit
ing at Mrs. Bakers he thought it a
good chance to come to South Amboy
and see his relatives, so he got another
boy named George Trask, to accom-
pany him over on the boat, thinking
they would be able to get back to Sea
Breeze in time to join the other ex-
cursionists on their return home.
They were not able to do SO and the
excursion boat left for Yonkers with
out them. 1t is supposed that con-
siderable anxiety was caused on board
that boat by their escapade. The boys
returned to Yonkers Sunday afternoon
after visit at Willie's grandparents,
which they appeared to be enjoying.

session was between the hours of and Il
o'clock in the forenoon, at which the report
of the board of relief was heard and adopt
ed and the report Of the committee on
evangeiistic work was finally disposed Of
At noon the session adjourned and the
members went in a body to Long beach.
where luncheon was served to 100 people
by the citizens of the seaside resort.
The harmony that has prevailed since the
opening of the General Assembly received
a slight shock this morning. Although the
shock was of but momentary duration, it
nevertheless caused the only commotion
that has stirred the body since the sessions
began. After disposition had been made Of
the reports Of the board of relief and the
special committee on evangelistic work the
Rev. Frederick X. Stanley, of Atlantic
City, N j. offered a resolution providing
that the following message be sent to Pres
ident Roosevelt: Christian greeting. With

|
move that this resolution be referred to the
committee on correspondence" A second
TO this motion was made Immediately.

Moderator Coyle hesitated for a moment,
and then remarked in a decisive tone: II
do not think that this would be the proper
disposition of this resolution" Before he
could proceed further, If he intended TO say
anything more, he was interrupted by calls
of Vote! Voter
Moderator Coyle raped vigorously with
his gavel and said: 'All those in favor of
sending this resolution 10 the committee on
CORES pondence will say aye"
There was faint response by some score
of commissioners, which a moment later
was made to seem insignificant by the great
volume OF Noes" THE motion is lost"
said Moderator Coyle. striking his gavel
upon the desk with resounding whack.
There was a burst OF applause from the
commissioners as well as from the gall
leries. 1t was quickly moved and seconded
that the resolution made by Rev. Stanley
be adopted. and IL was adopted by unan-

BOYS STOLE JOURNALS.
An Exciting Time Because Of Their
Arrest by Youthful SIeuths.

John Theamann, of 625 North Liberty
street. was arrested early yesterday morn
ing for stealing a number of Journals from
the doorsteps of the subscribers. There
have been many complaints from patrons
about not receiving their morning papers,
and the Journal Office offered a reward OF
s. to any one who would catch any one
stealing papers that had been deposited on
the doorstep of any of its subscribers. A.
about o'clock yesterday morning, Don
Small and Carl Abel, two youthful sleuths,
caught young Theamann and another boy
in the act of stealing papers and they
promptly took them into custody and
marched them to the police station. The
boys had been operating on Massachusetts,
avenue, near North street, and had a great
number of papers in their possession. There
was a great deal of excitement in the
neighborhood as the two boy detectives
marched their prisoners through the streets
on their way to police headquarters. When
they reached $50 Massachusetts avenue.
William Potter, a bartender in Alvin
Cavett's saloon, stepped out and released
Theamann. suggesting that he escape,
which he did. The bays chased him but
could not catch him and hold their other
prisoner. Bicyclemen Trimpe and Lowe
soon came to the rescue and took charge
of young Theamann, but the other boy was
not to be found. Potter was arrested for
interfering with the arrest of the boys and
will be given a hearing in Police Court to-
morrow morning.
