BURGLARS CAUSED FIRE
THREE PERSONS ARE DEAD
Blaze Which Destroyed Residence and
cremated Mrs. Alice McWithey and
Two Children, Was Due to Peculiar
Cause.
Publishers Prs-e.l

Paterson, N j., Dec. 22.-The au-
thorities now believe that the visit of
burglars TO the house was the cause
of the fire at Pompton Plains, in which
Mrs. Alice McWithey and her two lit
tie daughters, Helen, years old, and
Elizabeth, five years old, persisted. A
thorough search of the ruins has re-
vealed the. fact that all the valuable
silverware, of which Mr.. McWithey
was known to have a great amount,
was missing, although articles as
small as Mrs. McWithe'y diamond and
wedding rings, when recovered from
the ruins, were found to be unframed
by the heat.
The theory is that Mrs. McWithey
heard noises, got up, took a lamp and
went down to find the cause. When
she got there and found that there
were burglars in the house, it is sup
posed that she tainted and that the
overturned lamp set her and the house
on fire. The burglars, frightened by
the noise and the flames, the authori
ties believe, fed with their booty, leav
ing the unconscious woman and little
girls alone in the burning house.

New York, Dec. 22.-Attorney Gen
eral Hadley of Missouri is credited
with the discovery that the Standard
Oil company has practically been dis
solved in SO far as it is in conflict
with the federal laws. 1t is stated on
good authority that evidence proving
that the holding company known as
the Standard Oil company of New Jer-
sey has been dissolved will be present
cd by the trust attorneys when the
governments suit for the dissolution
OF the trust is begun in st. Louis in
January. Officials OF the Standard Oil
company are emphatic in their denials
when questioned on the reported dis
solution of the trust. They insisted
that no change was contemplated and
IL II had been effected there would be
no reason for keeping it secret.

New Castle, Dec %, (Spl "A
story with a moral for women has
developed here. The story deals
with absent mindedness or careless
ness and the lesson drawn from it
is that people who possess costly
clothes and wish TO keep them
should not throw them on the bar
gain table at a rummage sale.
Fair members of the Christian
church held rummage sale in the
basement of the church this week,
and it was well patronized by per-
sons of saving disposition, some
times called bargain hunters. All
articles were marked down below
cost in order to reduce stock, and
incidentally to replenish the church
treasury.
One woman who recently bought
cloak from a regular storekeeper for
$50 attended the rummage sale, and
being warm, she took off her cloak
and thoughtlessly laid it on count
er that was covered with articles for
sale
Another woman. bargain hun
ter" entered the room and seeing the
nice new cloak on the counter, said
to herself: Here's my opportunity
to get real bargain She wished
to buy a cloak for friend, but did
not care to pay a high price. The
s.saleslady,' new to the business and
not having examined the stock, sold
the cloak for 70 cents, and the pur-
chaser took her bargain away.
Half an hour later. when the care
less woman who laid the cloak
among the bargains" was ready to
go home, she found it had disappear
ed. Then there was dismay and ex-
citement in the church. Some of the
amateur "salesladies" went skirmish-
ing in hurry, but it required an
hours time to find the bargain
make the necessary expla-
nation and return the cloak to the
historical owner.

ed from Jefferies in their negotia-
tions for a referee for the Gans-Her-

1T will be long time before JEFF
ferries will be asked to officiate at a

sion of arrangements with Jack

What irritated the fight magnates
was Jefferies failure even to notice

The Herman men would have pre-
ferred Siler to WEIGH but made no
strong objection to the latters selec-

cree in the West for several years
and bears an excellent reputation for
ability and fairness.
Though the odds in Cans favor are
holding up well there is plenty of
Herman money in circulation and
many big wagers were made today.
Adolph Marks, prominent Chicago
lawyer and lifelong friend of the kid
placed $4,000 against $4,000 on the
latter, the Cans hacker being James

SHEETS IN THE WIND
 LAYER IN HE JAIL
His Objection to the. Spanish Lam
 guage in Court.

Policeman John Moore on Saturday arrested d couple of men who proved to be a whole armful before he got them to jail They were not bad men. merely quick witted fellows who were scrappers by nature and who were sufficiently soaked with whisky to make them recalcitraut. one was an Irishman named Frank Sheets. and the other was named Frank Judd.
 Judd had been wabbling around on the city plaza until he became d nui- sance but had momentarily dropped out of sight when a telephone call took the officers to the Commercial. where ne found a bunch of Sheets with about three of them in the wind. He was placed under arrest. Sheets asked him what he wanted and was told by the officer that he had come to take him to jail. "TH be d. if you do." said Sheets. "TIl be d. if l don't" said Moore. and he did, after some trouble.
 While passing the fire house while en route to the city hall with Sheets in tow, the officer met Judd. He was in vited to go to jail and replied in lan- guage so similar to that of Sheets that they must have both learned il at the same school. Judd squared off for a S good right arm to submit and come along quietly.
 In court that afternoon Judd had sobered up enough to take seven days. but it was different with Sheets. He was arraigned and Recorder Thomas began reading a complaint in another case in which a Mexican was defend ant. 'I don't understand a thing you say remarked Sheets to the court. He was told to sit still and keep his mouth shut until he was spoken to and Recorder Thomas kept on his read ing. You can read and be d., judge" was Sheets next remark and he was again reconcued. At the next Interruption he was ordered taken be- low. To this he said he would be dashed if he went below. but he did just the same. Yesterday he was very nervous and threatened with seeing things. but he was able to bear up under a seven day sentence.
