up by the steamer, which stopped to

baHge ahead of the Martha took their
boat axes. and cut loose from the
sinking barge to save themselves
from being carried down with it.
Efforts have been made to locate
the Martha, but it has not yet been
found. Captain Hornsby thinks that
it was carried out to sea by the
strong tide. He received word yes

quarantine answering the description
of the Martha, but, but the time men
arrived, it had disappeared.
The value of the boat and cargo

Robbers Arrested
In Woods Near
F|emington.
BOLD HOLDUPS.
Authorities Think The Men Are
the Ones Who Held Up and
Robbed the Paymaster Near
New Brunswick Some
Time Ago.

BENNINGTON, July 23:-Sheriff
and policemen and about hundred
armed citizens yesterday afternoon
ran down five armed Italians who
have been committing robberies in
this neighbOrhood for several days.
1t is thought that thismay be the
same gang which held up the pay
master near New Brunswick some
time ago and got off with $4,000 or
$4,000. Since last Friday the gang
has made a woods near Copper Hill
it's rendezvous. Several persons were
held up on the country roads and
more than one farmhouse was rob-
bed.
to rob the boarding house at Copper
Hill, where the Italians who are
building the stone road from Flem-
ington to Ringoes live They were
beaten off. Yesterday morning when
the Italians learned that the robbers
had made plans to waylay Paymaster
c. E. Reed, of Trenton when he ar
rived with their wages they were un-
controllably angry. The plan had
miscarried because one of the men
had attempted to get a foreman to
come in on the hOld-up.
The local authorities were deter
mined to capture the desperadoes
and, learning that they were hidden
in woods near Ringoes they organ
lied posse which later was aug
mented by recruits from Lamberts-
vile and Ringoes and set out.
Yesterday morning before the hun
ters arrived the members of the gang
held up vehicle containing Mrs.
Henry Holcombe, of Ringoes; Mrs. A..
Hunt, of Pennington, and Frederick
Baker, of Trenton. One held the
horse, three pointed shotguns >at the
persons in the vehicle and a fourth
demanded their valuables. Baker
handed over his pocketbook but re-
fused to deliver a diamond ring.
While they were wrangling about it
Baker took a long chance, whipped
up the horse and dashed down the
road.
The highwaymen then fled to the
woods. When the posse came upon
them they were lying face downward
on their shotguns and seeing the
large crowd they gave up without re-
sistance. When they were locked up
in the Jail here the authorities had
hard time preventing the Italian
wOrkmen from doing violence.

ticular although Inspector G. w.
Fithian did not favor it. He argued
that the refuse from such house
would eventually drain into near

street reservoir. Although the men,
bers of The board who have seen the
location state that it seems rather
impossible for any of the refuse to
reach this brook or the Smith street
reservoir, it. is beginning to seem a
serious question for the board.
Should the water from the Smith

ed into the mains, some of the mem
bers of the health board fear that
they might be called to account.
