completely destroyed by fire June q
at Rutland. Men had been putting
tar paper on the roof and il is sup

field near the barn and were cartino

supposed to be all right as they left
the reld with the last load. but when
they returned the flames were burst
ing through the roof and in about
thirty minutes the building was
burned to the ground. The origin
OF the fire is mystery but the sup,

GIVE CREDIT TO TRIBUNE
Anti-Shark Legislation Result Of
the Crusade.

The three measures introduced on Thursday
in the Assembly by Josiah T. Newcomb. OF the
XXIIId Assembly District, the result OF the
campaign conducted by The Tribune, together
with the Legal Aid Society. against the install
rnent sharks and allied corrupt city marshals,
caused widespread satisfaction on the lower
East Side yesterday.
One Of the measures provides that an order
issued IN a disposses for the defendant to
appear in court be served only by city
marshal. The only qualification is in the case
of such a precept being returnable in less than
three DAYS when the marshal may delegate
his powers in writing to some person over
eighteen years of age. In this contingency
however the authorization must be fled with
the clerk of the court, together with an ALL
davit of service.
Tho second amendment provides that no per-
son not a city marshal shall represent hlinsel1
to the public as such or perform the duties Oh
marshal or exhibit the words "MarshaTs bu-
rcau" or any words that may lead the puoAc 10
believe that he is a marshal. Further. no mar
shall is to be allowed TO permit any person 10
perform any act in his name
'I consider the measures in their relation To
the marshal are the direct outcome of the honest
marshals' agitation, stirred up by The Tribune s
exposure of dishonest marshals' practices. one
of the attorneys for the Legal Aid Society said
Yesterday lit is a distinct feather in The
Tribune's cap"
II is understood that Assemblyman New
combs measure If it becomes law. will deal
a deathblow to the ''marshas' bureaus" as at
present conducted in many cases
One OF the abuses which the measure VIII
make impossible is illustrated in the case or n
city marshal who dismissed by Mayor Low
but who continues TO this day 10 conduct
"marshal's bureau" and represents hlmser as
a marshal the law being at present unable 10
reach him.
Among possible objections to the measure may
be that there is no marshal attached TO the
First or Second District Court in this CITY.
Against this however, it is urged that there
are marshals enough and TO spare who live IN
these districts and could readily perform mar
shals' duties at these courts
One of the old abuses was the serving or dis
possess notices by pinning dispossess notice on
a householders wall in the householders ao-
sence A confederate, following few minutes
later would tear down the notice thus denying
TO the householder any knowledge that he had
been served.
II was reported yesterday that a vigorous at
tempt is to be made by disreputabe vendors
of instalment jewelry to revive the body execu-
ton. -
