pile of railroad iron laid on the track.
He removed it and notified the rail
road officials, and they ordered No. AZ
to slow up between Willmar and
Priam for fear a second obstruction
might be found, but nothing more was
discovered. 1t is thought that tramps
having some spite against the Great
Northern took this way to get even.
No clue has been found to the guilty
ones.

Aldermen Will Ask ShipbuiIding
Company What it Twill Give for
the Clear Title.
BELIEVE CITY OWNS.
Aldermen are Satisfied the Land Belongs
to the City and that If the ShipbulIding
Company Wants the Land It Should
pay for It-WOuId Discuss Matter
Further.

The Wet Dock property was dis
cussed by the Board of Aldermen sit
ting as the Committee of the Whole
last night. From what could be
learned by News reporter this morn
ing, the aldermen believe that their
title to the land is clear and that the
lease under which the Perth Amboy
Shipbuilding and Engineering Com
pany now occupies the land is good.
1t is understood that the aldermen
claim that within twenty seven years
the property will return to the city
and at that time it will be worth at
least $3.50, COO.
The aldermen, according to the
News informant, do not deem it neces-
sary to have the title fixed any more
than it is. They are disposed to nego-
tiate further in the matter, however,
and it is understood, will ask the
company now holding the lease, how
much it will give the city for the
title. 1t was said that the aldermen
are disposed to sell the land at a fair
price, but will not part with it unless
the city is we'll compensated.

PASSENGERS WERE
GREATLY ALARMED.
.FerrybOat Warren Became Wedged
in the Slip and was Fast for
Twenty Minut' s.

The Staten Island ferryboat Warren
was half hour late on the 7.45 trip
from Tottenville last night on account
of becoming wedRed crosswise in the
slip at the foot of Smith street.
When the Warren left Tottenville
she was late and when she arrived at
the slip on this side the tide was so
strong the boat came in full force
side ways and with such force that
for nearly twenty minutes it was i'm
possible to move her. The boat was
crowded with ladies and children and
when they found the boat could not
be moved there was considerable ex-
citement aboard and Rsome of them
wanted to climb on the piling and
creep ashore.
The captain finally got the boat
loose and, after making another
attempt, the passengers were safely
landed. The only damage done was
the strainlng of the piling.

BARK LOTTIE MOORE
is A TOTAL LOSS.
Left this Port Bound for Cuba In
February and has Never been
Reported Since

The local custom house has received
official notice from the Treasury de-
partment of the total loss of the bark
Lottie Moore, which sailed from this
port with coal for Havana, Cuba,
February 13 last. The above notice
simply confirms the story of her loss
as printed in the News over two
months ago. The Lottie Moore gave
the local customs officers considerable
concern during the Spanish American
War when she laid at South Amboy
with coal bound for southern ports.
She was never heard from after leav-
ing this port in February.

Mundy Boys Father Works In vaIen-
tines Factory.

Young John Melick, of Fords, was
nearly drowned In a clay pit at Val
entine's factory yesterday afternoon.
He was rescued by Israel Mundy, fore
man of the plant, who was attracted
to the pond by the cries of the boy.
Young Melick, whose father is en-
ployed at the Valentine factory, and
a boy companion, had been playing
about the factory all day and in the
afternoon they started to sail small
boat in the water in the clay pit. In
leaning over to give the boat push
the boy fell head first into the pit.
His cries attracted Mr.. Mundy, who
was passing. He jumped into the pit
with his clothes on, but he could not
swim. Fortunately friend was near
and he grabbed board which was
near and succeeded in landing both
man and boy.
When they were taken out of the
water Mr.. Mundy was none the worse
for his. ..wetting, but it was necessary
to roll young Melick on a barrel and
to apply all sorts of restoratives be-
fore he was brought around. But
after a great deal of labor on the part
of number of factory employees, who
had been attracted to the place by the
excitement, the boy was able to walk
home.

Situation Between Bosses and
Painters now Becoming RidiC-
uIOuS- Threats Unheeded.
NOTHING BUT MEETINGS.
Sessions Held Every Night This Week
Threats Made and Iourneymen Given
Until a Certain Time to Return, but
Nothing is Done IOurneymen Say Boss
es are BIufflng.

Meeting resulting in threats which,
thus far, have not been carried out,
is the only outcome of the present
struggle between the painters and
bosses in this city. The employers
threatened to put amalgamated paint
ers to work several days ago and the
journeymen dared them to do it, de-
claring that general strike would
follow. Thus the matter stands.
Meeting follows meeting. There has
been one nearly every night this
week. IS
Thursday night the Building Trades
Association, which is composed of the
bosses of all trades, and they agreed
to stand with the boss painters. Last
night the arbitration board met and
no agreement was reached. The jour
neymen now want $3.50 per day of
eight hours, the bosses to sign their
agreement and the bosses refuse,
giving the journeymen to a certain
time to go to work or the amalgamat-
ed painters will be put to work. The
journeymen painters do not go to
work and then laugh at the bosses be-
cause they hesitate to put out of town
painters on the jobs.
Tonight the Building Trades Ooun-
ell. which is composed of the labcs
unions, will meet, as will also the
Central Labor Board at which the
trouble will be fully discussed 1t is
declared the painters will decide
definitely what to do. This remains
to be seen.

More Stolen Goods from Say
brook Point, Conn.,, Claimed
and Sent Home Yesterday.
LIST OF THE ARTICLES.
Women, Whose Winter Homes Are In Brook
Iyn and Hartford, Visited Police Head
quarters In this City Yesterday and Saw
Articles Belonging to Them -Saybrook
Point a Summer Resort.

Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Lucie M.
Branard, of 1856 Washington street,
Hartford, Conn, and Mrs. Sarah L.
Morgan. of 162 Columbia Heights,
Brooklyn, visited police headquarters
and positively identified nearly all
the stolen articles remaining of the
big lot of loot recovered by Chief
Burke and his men some weeks ago.
Both of these women have cottages at
Saybrook Point, Conn, from which
place the stuff in each instant was
stolen by river thieves several months
ago, brought to this city and hidden
in the old house on Front street,
opposite Halls lumber yard.
The goods that Mrs. Branard claim
ed were twenty forks, eleven pie forks,
one fish knife and fork, twelve knives,
thirteen spoons, six table spoons, six
soup spoons, one chatting dish and
spoon, one bell, a tea set of five
pieces, one butter dish, one cake dish,
one ice bowl, all of silver, also one
cribbage board, card case, two
needle books and a table cloth.
Mrs. Morgan claimed one chatting
dish, one cream pitcher, one syrup
cup, seven forks, three desert spoons,
ten table knives, all silver. and one
small lamp, match safe and brass
tea kettle.
When it is taken into consideration
that the majority of these things were
silver, many of them solid pieces, and
the fact that nearly half of the loot
had already been identified, the value
of the goods is estimated to the
amount Of 80, 500 as claimed by Chief
Burke. These are the articles which
were described in the letter recently
received from the Connecticut sheriff
an account of which was given in the
News. The owners, after learning
that such articles were here, came on
yesterday and had them packed ready
to return to Connecticut. They COM
plimented the local police on their
excellent work.
