State milk inspectors made anoth-
er raid on the local milk dealers this
morning.
The inspectors this morning exam
ined the milk sold by nearly all the
local dealers and, while making one
test at Smith and High streets, were
surrounded by large number of
people. Another milkman was held
up at State and Jefferson streets and,
before the inspectors left, the entire
contents of the wagon were poured
into the gutter.
The inspectors have suspicious of
a number, it is understood, and more
cases may be tried in the district
court shortly. Samples were taken
from each of the wagons and will be
sent to Trenton, where they are to
be analyzed by the state chemists.
A short time ago the inspectors
visited this city and succeeded in
catching a few of the dealers selling
impure milk. They were summoned

ROOSEVELT, Apr 29:-Four lives
were snuffed out here Saturday af-
ternoon by the collapse of the west
wall of the building of the De Lamar
Copper refining works. The same
number of men were seriously in
jured and three of them are now in
the Alexin Brothers Hospital in Eliz-
abeth.
The four killed: Zunio Wagee,
George Skinsky, Louis OH and Frank
Ginfe.
Those killed were Hungarian labor
ers working on an extension. They
were designated on the pay roll of
the copper company by numerals.
The men were caught beneath the
wall as it fell outward The col
lapse occurred so quickly that the
men had no opportunity to realize
their situation and attempt to es-
cape. The life was literally crushed
out of them by the mass of brick and
mortar The men in the hospital now
were hurt by flying bricks.
There has been no chance as yet
to determine what was responsible
for the catastrophe. The supposition
is that the rain Friday loosened up
the ground, which is low and filled in
for the most part, causing the wall
to sag. Had the wall given away
fifteen minutes earlier it is believed
there would have been more fatalities
and many more hurt. Three of the
Hungarians were dead when pulled
out from beneath the mass of debris,
breathing. He was cut and bruised
