SIGNALS IN
OPERATION.
Only Two are Working Thus FaI
Between Here and Jersey
City.
TO CROSS DRAWBR|DCE.

The work of installing the new Hall
Automatic Signals on the Central
railroad, is progressing rapidly. Yes
terday the company finished the sig
nails at the Washington street crossing
of the Central railroad and the Lehigh
Valley.
When Mr.. Tracey, who has charge
of this work for the Hall Signal COM
pany, was seen by a News reporter
this morning, he said:
"The work of putting in the auto
matte signals is now finished from
Jersey City to the Central drawbridge
over the Raritan river, but at the
present time, the only two places that
are in operation, is the tower at Port
Reading and the one at Washington
street, this CITY. 1t will be impossi-
BILE to get the other part of the system
in working order, before the railroad
company builds new cabin on the
draw wbridge at this place and on the
bridge over the Railway river. This
will be commenced as soon as posi-
ole. -
Mr.. Tracey is highly pleased with
the way the signals of the Washington
street tower are working and he said
they are great deal better than a
man for there is no chance to forget
and they are always right.
The work of putting in the signals
to Long Branch will be continued and
when the cabins at the drawbridges
are completed, thepecessary apparatus
will be put in.

Commodore Evans Launch Web
was Missing Yesterday
Found Drifting.
WOULD NOT RUN
The Commodore had taken the Spark Coil
Home With Him and no Power was
0htainabe- Launch: was PCke up by
Walter WogIum and lowed in TO
Deckers.

Are the river thieves becoming
active again? is the question that boat
owners are now asking for it is only
a short time ago that number OF
boats disappeared. Yesterday Com
modore Evans, of the Raritan Yacht
Club, came near losing his fine power
boat, Web, which was found adrift
down the bay by Walter Woglom, who
tied it up at the Decker's plant at
Tottenville.
Mr.. Evans had left his boat Wednes-
day night tied as usual near the Rari-
tan Yacht Club, and when William
Hartman, Jr., notified him yesterday
that the, boat had disappeared, Mr..
Evans at once decided that 1t had
been stolen, but he knew that the
thieves could not make much use of
it as he had taken the spark coil home
with him. SHartman set out to find
the boat and in cruising close to the
Tottenville shore, he found it high
and dry at Decker's. With the AID OF
some men, he got it off and brought
it back to its mooring.
Last night when Walter Woglom
came home from his work down the
bay, where he had been longing
oysters, he told Mr.. Evans that he
had found the boat adrift out in the
bay, and not having time to return to
Perth Amboy with it, had put it al
Deckar's until ne came home at night
1t ~ supposed the thief got the boa
away from her mooring, and having
towed her out in the bay, tried tC
start her engine. He then discovered
the spark coil missing and, fearing he
would be caught with the boat in his
possession, he set it adrift.

FLOATING SHIPIARD
FORCED TO CLOSE;
BARGE A JUNKSHOP.
Charles Memqnd Finds Himself the Victim of Strikes Lack of
Help and IS Forced Sell out Old Barge M Become aJ0nk
shop and William Walters wN Control the Shore Fron-Stor-
age for Boat During the Winter

Charles A. Kleimandt has given up
his boat building works on the old
barge Triton. He has been in bust
ness since Christmas and in that time
has done some "a, 900 worth of work.
He attributes his failure to the fact
that he could obtain no competent
workmen. Strikes for higher wages
and shorter hours caused much loss
also. These losses, coupled with in
ability to procure steady men, are the
reasons given for his retirement.
Mr.. Kleimandt says as he could not
keep up the business and as it was
impossible to break up the old barge,
where she lay, he was compelled to
lose her. This loss amounts to about
5000.
Captains James MCGEE and William
Walters have leased the boat and
beach from the owner. Captain Nc
Gee will run junk shop on the old
boat and in addition will house small
boats for the winter. Mr. Walters
will have control of the beach.
Mr.. Kleimandt had no work on
hand when he decided to discontinue
his business He aroused no little
interest at the time the works were
started, from the fact that his entire
plant was afoat He was given much
space in the city papers describing the
novel shipyard. 1t was generally
understood that he was very busy and
has had an unusual amount of work.
He has been handicapped for lack of
help and this has necessiuated hihr'
turning away some work which would
have helped him considerably.

EXPLOSION AT CENTRAL
STATION INJURIES TWO.
Baggagemaser and Ticket Agent Were Investigating the Quantity
Of Gas on Hand With Lighted Lantern Flames Shoot up and
Both Men were Badly Buned--Dripn to Dr. F. C. Henry
Office Where Wounds Were Dressed.

Richard Bolger, ticket agent, and
Herbert Ford, baggage master, at the
Central Railroad station, are confined
to their homes under the care OF a
doctor, both badly burned about the
face and body. They were trying to
discover Just how much gas there was
left in the gas tank at the station,
with lighted lantern, last night An
explosion followed, and but for the
promptness and GOODNESS of several
passengers, who were waiting for
trains, the depot would have burned
down.
For the last few nights all OF the
gas lamps at the local Central depot
have been out, because of the Central
railroad company's failure to send gas
here. The gas comes in huge tanks
which are SET up in a small room built
for this purpose. Last night the
people, who were waiting for the
trains, complained loud and often be-
cause of the darkness, and Bolger and
Ford thought they would see if there
was a little gas left so as to light a
few of the lamps. They took an ordi-
nary lantern and went into the room.
Mr.. Bolger held the lantern, while
Ford opened the tank. The lid had
no sooner been lifted than the flame
from the lantern seemed to shoot to
the bottom of the tank, and in a Sec
ond there was loud report.
The crowd of waiting passengers
ran in the direction of the sound and
found the room mass OF flames,
while the two men were cropping
about, badly burned. Mr.. Bolger
managed to get out. He jumped into
a hack and was driven to the office OF
DR.. F. @. Henry, where prompt aid
saved his eyes, for the force OF the
explosion had caught him full in the
face, breaking his glasses.
Ford was helped into the ticket
office by some of the passengers, while
others helped put out the hames'
which were burning briskly. A doc
tor dressed Ford's wounds and he was
taken home. The tank filled with
gas would have been sufficient to
wreck the building

Woodbridge Township Commit
eemen Again Grant Request
of Traction Company.
THOSE SEWER BONDS.
Perth Amboy Savings Institution holds
Some of them and Mayor Seanan, Re-
presenting the Bank, Appeared Before
the Committeeman to Know What was
to be Done.

At the meeting of the township
committee of Woodbridge, held last
night in the Town Hall, for the pur-
pose of talking trolley and the fran
chise for the right of way in Wood
bridge, which is requested by the Eli
zabethport, Amboy and Long Branch
Railroad Company. Lawyer Weigel,
of New Brunswick, appeared on be-
half of the traction company and
asked that the township committee
postpone the hearing until the first
meeting night in November, as the
traction company officials had not
been able to get together, but that
they would try by that time to have
everything in order to go ahead with
the hearing.
This request for another postpone
ment brought forth protests from the
few people present, who complained
about the slowness of the traction
company officials. Lawyer Charles
Brown asked Mr.. Weigel if the post
ponement was granted until the next
meeting, whether the traction COM
pany would have everything ready,
and not send another lawyer to Wood
bridge to ask for a postponement.
"For you know" Mr.. Brown con-
tinued, "that last month Mr.. Quin
came here and asked for the postpone
ment, and now they send you, and the
people of Woodbridge would like to
know who will come next monGh. y
Mr.. Weigel said he hoped that
everything would be in order by the
next meeting and the town committed
decided to give the traction company
one more chance and the next meet
ing will be held on Thursday, Novem-
Der 9TH
Before the m citing had been closed
for the evening, Mayor Charles K.
Seaman, of this city, who attended
the meeting as a representative of the
Perth Amboy Savings Institution,
asked the chairman of the town COM
mittee if he might speak. The privil-
ege was granted and the mayor said:
Gentlemen, l come here tonight
as a representative of the Perth Am
boy Savings Institution in regards to
the sewer bonds of Woodbridge, which
we hold. AS you know, we have
So, 800 of them and coupons to the
amount of 81, 100, making So, 700 worth
in all, the interest which is at the
rate of per cent have long been due.
Some of it should have been paid in
January, February and June, and as
we have not yet heard from you, we
would like to know what is to be
DONE"
The committee discussed the subject
and said they regretted tnat the matter
had not been attended to before, but
that when the sewer taxes had been
collected, they had been handed over
with all of the other taxes, without
anything to designate which was
which.
The clerk of the committee, Irving
Demarest, told the committee that he
had notified the collector of taxes to
appear at the two last meetings OF the
town committee, but that he had not
done so. The clerk was then ordered
to make out an order for the collector
to appear at the next meeting OF the
committee on Wednesday, October L.
The committee then told Mr.. Seaman
that they would take care of the
matter at the next meeting.

TENDENCY OF THE TIMES

The tendency of medical science is
toward preventive measures. The
best thought of the world is being
given to the subject. It is easier and
better to prevent than to cure. It has
been fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia, one of the most dangerous
diseases that medical men have to
contend with, can be prevented by the
use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
Pneumonia always results from cold
Or from an attack of influenza grip,
and it has been observed that this
remedy counteracts any tendencyro Of
these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this rem
edy has been used during the great
prevalence of colds and grip in recent
years. and can be relied upon with
implicit confidence. Pneumonia often
results from a slight cold when no
danger is unprecedented until it is sud-
denly discovered that there is fever
and difficulty in breathing and pains
in the chest, then it is announced that
the patient has pnuemonia. Be on
the safo side and take Chamberlain
Couf Remedy as soon as the cold Is
contracted. 1t always cures. For
sale at Mayo's Drug Store.
