were on the second floor front when
there was a sudden smell of smoke, and
then flames. from some unknown
cause. began to- lick their way toward
them. The father became frightened
and rushed downstairs. The boy was
TOO scared to move, and was soon SO
suffocated by smoke that he was help
less.
While the father was bewailing his
misfortune, the engines began to arrive,
preceded by Chief McDermit, of the
fourth battalion He heard the father
cries and, without wasting words hur-
ried up through flame and smoke, found
the unconscious boy on the floor
scracely breathing. and carried him
down the stairs on his sturdy arms.
When the patrol wagon came up ne
was rushed to st. Barnabas's Hospital
where he was revived The burns or
his face and hands were dressed and
then he; went home.

LIVES |MPER|LED
IN QUICK BLAZE
IN BLOOMFIELD
Inmates OF Low Frame Build
ings Rush Ont Through
Smoke in Night Dress.
GOOD WORK OF FlREMEN
1 PREVENTS BIG DAMAGE
Mrs. Ellen Ward, in Whose
! Room Fire Started, the
Worst Sufferer.

A fire that threatened to DESTROY a
row of two-story frame buildings owned
by David w. Miller in Bloomfield ave-
nue.. broke out in the apartments OF
Mrs Ellen Ward. at ae4 Bloomfield ave-
nue.. shortly after midnight today. 1t
filled the place full OF smoke, which
poured into the apartments of Charles
Mclean. Thomas OHare, James Dolan
and Others living in the row.
James Ward. a son of the woman in
whose rooms the blaze originated.
awoke half emothered. He got his
mother out and then aroused the MEM
bers of the Dolan, Mclean and O'Hare
into the street in scant attire. The
women carried their little ones to points
of safety, cropping their way through
the sitting smoke and down the narrow
stairway.
Had the building been one story
higher a loss of life would have un-
doubtedly resulted. The fire caused
much excitement in the neighborhood
as runor quickly spread that several
children had been burned to death. Ar
alarm was sent in from box 81 and the
volunteer fire department quickly re-
sponded. The flrenen managed to con-
fine the fire to Mrs. Wards rooms
Her loss is several hundred dollars and
the woman had no insurance. The
smoke did some damage to the Nc
Lean. o'Hare and Dolan apartments.
The shivering women and children
we're taken in and cared for by neigh
bors Young Ward declares the blaze
was started by the overturning of g
kerosene oil lamp. He was asleep al
the time
Fire Chief Higgins said today that
the escape from death of the numerous
inmates in the building was miraculous
as his men could scarcely enter it or
account Of the terrible smoke.

VOTE ON TARIFF
BY SCHEDULES IN
THE HOUSE TODAY
Lumber and Oil Expected to De-
velop a Bitter and Pro-
longed Fight.
CANNON THE CHAMPION
OF PETROLEUM INTEREST
Republicans Refuse to Print
Numerous Amendments Sug-
gested by Payne Committee.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-With q
hundred or more amendments to the
Payne tariff bill made by the commit
tee on ways and means and accepted by
the House majority, the measure Will
be put upon it's passage at p. m. TO-
day The vote will be taken on these
schedules designated by the House or
ganization: Coffee, tea, barley, barley
malt, lumber and oil. The only fights
expected are those on the lumber and
oil schedules.
Speaker Cannon will use every means
in his power to keep the House from
voting on petroleum. The rule is sus-
ceptible of so many constructions that
the speaker, who has outspokenly
championed the oil interest, may over
rule the will of majority by par
liamentary technicality.
Calls Committee System Outrage.
Francis Burton Harrison. of New
York, charged that the whole system
of committee amendments was an out
rage upon the House and fraud upon
the American people. Chairman Payne,
he said. had been requested by Leader
Clark to print the proposed amend
n1ents so that the House might have
an opportunity to see what it was vot.
ing upon, but this request was refused
by Payne, who said there was no neces-
sity for printing the amendments, and
besides 1t would keep the printing
clerks up late at night.
He said he would like to know what
influence had operated upon the Re
publicans of the ways and means COM
n1ittee to cause them to make reduc-
tions in committee only to increase the
duties on the floor of the House. The
party in power is pledged to revision
downward, but he could not see where
there was the slightest probability of q
downward revision.

action for $4,000 damages brought
against him and other defendants by
Mrs. Myra c. Sims, his daughter-in-
law, for the alienation of her hus-
bands affections. She lived at 323 Cliff
ton avenue until recently and is now
supposed to be an artists model in
New York
When the suit WAS first filed, last
summer, IT created great sensation,
not only because all the parties to II
are well-known in the community. but

Frightened wives and sisters. old and

friends.
Among these was Hrs. Marsh, wife

In the six wheel mills which were
destroyed the wet powder used to be

most danger lay in the coming mills
where the powder was granulated. The
