RUSHED TO BIG FIRE
EDGEWATER OIL WORKS
BLAZE A FINE SHOW.
Little Girl Sent in Alarm as Employees
Were In a Panic Over
Sudden Flare.

EDGEWATER, Aug. 2.-In a s~pectac-
ular fire last night that lit up the Hud-
son River and inland for miles, drew
thousands of New Workers TO points
of vantage along Riverside Drive, where
they viewed the blaze for hours. and
brought a crowd Of 5000 from nearby
Bergen County towns, two persons were
seriously injured, several had narrow
escapes from death, and damage
amounting to s150,000 was done to the
plant of the Valvoline Oil Company.
This is a subsidiary concern of the
Standard Oil Company, and its plant
covers many acres along the North
River Road. The injured are:
Daniel Coffey, IA years old.
Thomas Branagan, a member of Hose
Company No. 2, of Fort Lee.
Coffey was struck by flying debris
Hhet a wall collapsed; Branagan fell
thirty-five feet from a bridge while
fighting the flames between two build
ings. Both were taken TO their homes
in automobiles, suffering from internal
injuries.
From Fort Lee and the villages adj
jacent to Edgewater fire companies

In addition the fire boat Mcclellan,
from New York, and tugs from the
Erie, West Shore and other railroads,
poured tons of water on the blaze from
the river front, and by midnight the fire
was under control.
Great danger in addition to the sew
eral explosions of tanks that wrecked
the building IN which the fire started
was feared during the height of the
blaze, as ten tanks filled with refined
oil were in the close vicinity o. the
burning building. BY quick use of
pumps, which drew the oil TO other
tanks. a plentiful use of sand and
strenuous work of the fire fighting
force. the danger was finally averted.
Defective insulation of the electric
wires in the wax house was given as
the cause Of the fire, although incen-
dlarism is limited at. as recently there
was a fire Of suspicious origin that die
considerable damage to another plan
of the company at Butler.
So sudden was the blaze that IN
employees on the ground became panic
stricken, and it was 14-year-oid Nelli'
Schomp, whose home is close by tn
works, who sent in the alarm tina
brought the local firemen. The aic
I from outside towns and the flreboatS
came later.
AT the height of the fire a 1O0-horse-
power boiler exploded and this added
TO the destruction already wrought. II
was due to this that young Coffey re
ceived his injuries.

NO MORE BUS RIDES
WILL THE MAYOR TAKE.
City Executives Second Escape from
Injury in Them-Members Of
Council Also Scared.

For the second time since he has been
in the executive chair Mayor Jacob Hauss-
ling late yesterday afternoon had a mar
row escape from injury while riding In a
bus. AS on the former occasion street
repairs were indirectly responsible for the
danger. Last nights trouble. as told in
the Sporting Edition Of the EVENING
STAR. happened on Meeker avenue near
Elizabeth avenue junction. when the
horses of the Mayors conveyance became
frightened at a steam roller being used
in the repairing Of Meeker avenue. The
first accident occurred near the Newark
baseball grounds when the Mayor was re-
turning from the famous aldermanie ball
game. The wheels of the vehicle went
down into a rut caused by the tearing
up of the street leading to the park.
This is the second time | have had
trouble riding in a bus; I will have no
more of them" said the Mayor last night.
The Mayor and Aldermen Corish, Holz-
ner. Bennett, Leveen and Wohlfarth were
returning from the potter's field mspec-
ton. The steam roller gave forth a cloua
of steam as the party of city otncials
passed at Meeker and Elizabeth avenues.
The horses sprang forward. catching VIII
lam Donald. the driver, off his guard.
Down Meeker avenue the animals went at
dangerous speed. humping the occupants OF
tine Mayors bus. Every moment it seemed
tina: the vehicle would be upset, but
Donald's efforts were successful.
The danger was made the more lmmi-
nent from the fact that on the side of
Meeker .cnue the vehicle was being
dragged there is a ffteen-foot decline. If
the bus had upset there might have been
some city officials on the injured list.

among those combatted by the rail-
roads, and not included in any of the
litigation now pending on the Court of
Federal Judge Jones, of the middle Ala
bama district.
The case upon which the revocation
was made out came from the Circuit
Court of Talladega County in the shape
of a notification from Clerk j. D. Nc
Neel that q suit a beer removed
from the State court to the Federal
court.
Secretary of State Julian looked into
the law and found that there was Moth
ing else to do but mark the license can
celed, as the action of the statute is
automatic.

MURDERED MANS BODY
PLACED IN FREIGHT CAR.
Unknown Baltimorean Was Riddled with
Bullets, but No Gun Was
Found Nearby.

BALTIMORE, Aug. 2.-The body OF a
white man, apparently about % years
old, was found this morning in a freight
car which had been sent to Camden
station, of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road after having been held at Mt.
Clair station over night.
The car was loaded with merchandise
and had come from Chicago. All it's
doors We're sealed, though one of them
appeared to have been broken open
and the sealing wire afterward joined
together. Death. had resulted from a
gaping bullet wound in the head, made
by a .3S-calibre bullet. A number of
cartridges of this size were found in
the pockets of the clothing, but no
trace of a pistol could be found, though
search of the car was made.
Hence the police believe the man was
murdered land his body afterward
placed in the ar. The coroner ex-
pressed the conviction that death had
about twelve hours before the
body was discovered. The man was
apparently laborer and a Baltimorean,
his hat and necktie bearing the marks
of local merchants. Nothing was found
upon, the body by which identity could
be established.

Ter and Joseph A. King, iessees and
sub-1essees of the West END cottages
and the Hildreth cottage. West End,
Long Branch, from ~disposing of any
of the money collected from patrons
as room rent.
The bill filed by Robert H. McCar-
ter, representing the West End Cot
tages Company a New Jersey corpora
ton, also asked for the appointment
of a receiver to conduct the hotel cot
tages, restaurant and cafes and bath
ing privileges until the end of the sea-
son, as provided in the lease, and col
lee the rents and all receipts of the

patronage from the petitioners prop
erty to the Tallahassee Hotel, and in
many ways have permitted the res
taurant and other features of the West

everything has been done to attract
guests to the Tallahassee Hotel. The
defendants often claimed to have no
accommodation for guests at the West
End cottages, and referring said guests

April "a, 1907, the date the deed was
executed. Since that time, and SUISSE
quent to July rs, when the defendant
forced the complaining company's
agent was forced to surrender $1,2S5,
SO, 900 has been paid on account, leav-
ing a balance Of $780, 900, which the petit
toner hopes to recover through the APP
pointment of a receiver.
The defendants were represented by
Thomas Fay, who claimed that under
the provisions of the lease the hotel
was to be properly furnished, whereas
Mr.. Donovan has been compelled to
purchase kitchen and dining room
utensils as we'll as bedding and other
household goods.
He strongly objected to the appoint
ment of a receiver, but said he had
no objection to paying the money into
the court. saying that there is now
some 81, 800 in hand at the hotel, which
belongs to the room rent account.
Vice-Chancellor Howell said he would
act on the natter mex Tuesday.

BELFAST POLICE ASKGRIEv-
ANCES BE LOOKED INTO.
Parade of ~Disafected officers Postponed.
Situation I~sAggravated by the Threat
ened Renewal of the Strike.

BELFAST, Aug. 1.-The parade Of the
disaffected members of the local police
force. which was scheduled TO take place
today, has been postponed, II not altogether
abandoned. apparently for the purpose Of
enabling the government to be in a posi-
ton to dismiss the entire police force Of
the city should such drastic action be-
come necessary.
The men remain defiant ard declare they
secured a public inquiry into their al
legged grievances. In an interview pub
lished in a local newspaper. Constable Bar
rett, who was dismissed from the force
for agitation, declares that among the
grievances of men is the fact that under
the present Dublin Castle system only
those men who are willing to play the
part of provocative agents can gain pro-
motion. Barrett claims that the present
agitation will put an end to the 'tabom-
Unable system of manufacturing crime"
The situation is aggravated today by the
threatened renewal Of the coal lockers
strike. These men recently resumed work.
but today the strike leaders aver that the
employers are not observing the compact
made with the men.
In the meanwhile the government is
drafting all available policemen in Lon

regiment has been transferred from the

KILLED IN MINES
1000 MET DEATH IN PENNA.
COAL FIELDS LAST YEAR.
Department Chiefs Report Shows That
557 Persons Were Killed at Anthra-
cite Fields, ATT at Bituminous.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2.-More than
one thousand persons were killed last year
in the coal mines of Pennsylvania, accord
ing to the annual report just issued by
James Roderick, chief of the Department
of Mines. The statistics show that Of 5O7
persons killed at anthracite mines, PA were
the result of the victims carelessness. SO
to carelessness Of others, 1873 unavoidable
and &c resulted from accidents for which
responsibility could not be fixed. OF the
AT killed at bituminous mines S7 victims
died from their own carelessness, 10 by the
carelessness of others, 142 unavoidable and
IS by accidents for which responsibility
could not be placed.
The chief says that the figures show that
two-thirds of the accidents resulted from
the victims own earelessness and that the
remaining third may be taken as the rea-
sonable percentage of accidents to miners.
1T seems impossible to adopt any method,
he says, "either by legislative enactment
or by special rules, that will tend to lessen
the loss of life among the mine workers.
The accidents left nearly one thousand
widows with 3,41O children under IA years
of age. A great deal could be done to ale
viate the distress, the chief says, II the age
limit for the employment Of boys inside the
mines were lowered from 16 to IA years.
