LOSS
FOR THE YEAR
Barre Fire Damage Was Less
Than $4,000
WAS ONLY ONE BIG FIRE
That Caused Five-sixths of the Entire
Loss--Department Has Had AZ
Calls and Used Water Only
Eight Times.

The loss sustained By fire in Barre
City for the year which has just ended
as determined by Chief Gladding Of the
fire department, was less than $4,000
This equals the best record Of the last
ten Or fifteen years, and II quite a bit
below tile average for that period. Dur
ing that time there were 52 calls for the
department, and of the number only 13
were general or bell, alarms In the
other 20 cases, the chemical engine alone
responded to telephone summons. In
former years, before the new system was
put in operation, it would have been
found necessary to call out the entire
department Of forty men or 80, and not
having the chemical engine II IL probable
that water would have been turned on
with the resulting deluge, even Ii the
blaze didn't amount to much
In fact water was turned on only
eight times during the entire year, the
chemical engine having been found sniff
cient to cope with the situation nearly
every time There were three less calls
than the year before and one-third less
damage Had it not been for one fire,
the loss for 1906 would have been less
than $1,000 The Quinlen building fire
on May gswas the only blaze Of conse-
quenee, the loss being s5,07s20. In
this fire more than $4,000 was IN
lvolyed; that is, endangered in the one
building.
OF the causes of the fires two-thirds
were due to overheated or defective
chimneys; three were from overheated
stoves, one from engine sparks, one
lprohably incendiary, one from gasolcne
Explosion, one from lamp explosion. one
caught from forge, one from burning
tar one from gas Jet and two with
causes unknown.
The regular, or paid, fire department
was installed a year ago last spring.

MAKE A PROTEST
AGAINST ARREST
Italian Synpathilers Of Louis Gaileani
He'd a Meeting and Then Wait
Upon the Mayor.

4 hundred or more italian friends of
Louis Galleani, who was arrested in
Barre on Sunday, charged with rioting
Id Paterson, Az J., four and half years
ago, and who was taken To that city
yesterday, gathered AZ Depot square last
night to enter protest against the ar
rest Several denunciGtory speeches
were made and one of d humorous ma
lure, in which the speaker said that The
Salvation army was accustomed to hold
meetings at Depot square and there
weren't so many policeman around as
he claimed he could see while be was
speaking. He thought that they and the
Salvation arfny ought 10 be treated
alike This made the crowd laugh.
A petition was read and then the
crowd streamed to the City Hall to pre-
sent it TO Mayor Barclay Not finding
him there they sent telephone message
to his house. Mayor Barclay consented
to come down town, and the crowd
pressed into the little city court room,
fiHng it to suflocation. After consider
able delay, occasioned BY the necessity
to get dressed for the street, the mayor
appeared and was escorted into the
midst of the crowd. Then CaYaIazzi, d
relative of Galleani, speaking through an
interpreter, presented the petition, which
Translated literally, reads:
Resolved, that we cannot stand with
ont objection to the consignment Of an
honest and independent man to the arbi-
trary viii
Protest
against the malicious actions Of our To-
cal enemies and ask w. Barclay, mayor
Of the city, il he doesn't want to attest
that Louis Galleani arrested here al a
criminal il a man Of high estimation and
will however let know To the grand jury
of passaic county court that it is the
unanimous vote of the Barre workmen
10 have him come back to his family
and to his apostolate Of education and
emancipation.
The same speaker who referred at De-
pot square TO the Salvation Army then
stated that Galleani was no criminal
that he hadn't changed any whiskey To
water and that he hadn't substituted
other people for prisoner, and further
1 more that he wasn't a spy like some
be could see ii the room.
Mayor Barclay listened patiently To
the statements made and took the mat
ter under advisement, telling them, how.
ever, that be could not write to the
eourt. The meeting then broke up amid
cheering.
/ Announcement is made that in spite
of any rumor to the contrary, the Ital.
ian paper, Cronaca Sovversiya, Of which
Louis Galleani IL reputed to be editor
win be printed as usual this week
Friends Of Galleani state that he has
been residing IN Barre longer than re-
ported. and that his residence here has
covered nearly four years.

GETTING TOGETHER
ON ASSESSMENT
Abutters Feel Kindly Disposed Toward
the City Council, and a Settlement
May Be Reached,

"A large number of abutters on Main
street and d few Others assembled IN
the rooms Of their attorney, Richard a.
Hoar. yesterday afternoon and discussed
the paving assessment situation. No
action was taken. From Indications
gathered out side, It seemed that the
abntters and the city council are grad
ually drifting together on this much
mooted question. Whether or not the
drift win result in a complete under
standing i not certain. a short time
ago the city made the proposition that
/ the abutters pay one-half the cost Of
the pavement, less eight per cent engi-
neer's expenses. use of steam roller, etc.
with the accrued interest thrown in
(The abutters look upon this interest
bonus as joke, saying it is not col
lectible.)
The contention of the abntters now
/ is that there is no assessment before
them, that the former assessment has
been declared null and that therefore
they do not know what to pay This
may mean that the city will need to 20
through the formality Of reassessment
on the basis of the eight per cent re-
duction under the city charter amended
by the last legislature, and that the
abutters may then pay. But the next
move TO satisfy the abutters seems TO
be that the city make form Of reassess-
Iment and present the bills to the indi
lviduals liable The abutters at least
express satisfaction at the way they
have been treated by the present city
council
