EXPLOSION ON BOAT
NEARLY COST LIFE

Henry Koch, of 55 New Brunswick
avenue, Railway, is able to be up
and around following an accident
occurring two weeks ago in which
he nearly lost his life. He was burn
ed by a gasoline explosion in his
large powerboat Regina, which for
merly belonged to Guy Mallet, of this
city. Mr. Koch came to this city
yesterday and viewed the boat, which
is now at P. Petersen's bodybuilding
establishment undergoing extensive
repairs.
The accident occurred on the night
of August IA, while Koch was at
tempting to clean the gasoline tank
In the fore part of the vessel at It's
mooring. The boat was covered
with a heavy piece of canvas, under
which Koch crawled with a lantern.
He had Just unscrewed parts of the
tank when there was an explosion
and a sheet of fame arose from the
bow of the craft. He was pinned in
a dangerous spot under the canvas
and his clothing became ignited be-
fore he could crawl out.
Though suffering great pain from
burns about his lower limbs he did
all he could to save the vessel from
total destruction. Holes were bored
In its side In an effort to sink it, but
without avail. The flames were
finally extinguished with several pals
of water and the assistance OF men
on the scene.
The vessel is twenty-eight feet
long. The bow was badly burned, as
was the port side. Repairs will be
completed in few days.

ARRAIGN THEM
IN WOODBRIDGE
Coal Thieves. Fined $i5 Each
by Judge Dunn--Not
Brought Here.
RECORDER THOUGHT EASY

Chief John F. Haines, sof Easton.
who has charge Of all the special
officers of the Lehigh Valley railroad,
has sent word to this city that the
officers must take prisoners whom
they arrest for stealing coal before
another justice than Recorder H. e.
Pickersgill.
The chief, because the recorder
has been holding coal thieves for the
grand jury instead of f1ning them
recently, declares that more coal
than ever has been taken and that,
unless they are fined, the prisoners
repeat the offense. Mike Smalley
and Anna Smalley, of Valentines,
were arrested by Special Officer Pat
rick Nieland at 2 o'clock this morn
ing for taking coal from cars near
Fords. They were brought to this
city to be given hearing before
Justice of the Peace Marcus Stricken
but he could not hear the case as he
was not feeling well.
Special Officer James McDermott
who has charge of the local railroad
force of the railroad, said that here
after the prisoners would be taken
and arraigned before Judge Dunn, OF
Woodbridge.
Recorder Pickersgill says he has
been holding the thieves for the
grand jury because he was SO in
structed by County Judge Lyon.
Judge Dunn fined today's prison
RS SIS each and said all hereafter
caught would be fined $25.

ing seriously injured. He was turn
ing into Market street, when his

N. j., belonging to Peter Wiesman,
of West 52nd street, New York.
Trutski was hurled to the ground,
sustaining numerous bruises and con-
tusions. and his bicycle was reduced
to junk. The collision was the re-
suit of Trutskl's and Wiesman's eff
forts to dodge one another. Wies-
man, with several persons in his ear,
was going west on Market street.
According to spectators he was trav-
cling slowly. He saw Trutski COM
ing on his wheel and tried to avoid
striking him. 1t appears that the
cyelist became confused and ran d.
rectly into the car. He was hurled
from the whee land stunned for a
few minutes. The wheel struck the
auto squarely, demolishing the for
mer. The car was slightly scratched.
Trutski threatened suit Wies-
man tried TO settle for SIS and finally
they agreed to settle for $40.

YensLuxhoy Runs
After Bullet
Enters His
Body.
IN BAD SHAPE
Victim Was Near Bridge
When AssaiIant Cried
what Do You Want?
and Pulled Trigger
of Revolver.

While walking along the Lehfgh
Valley railroad near Mannings
bridge about midnight Yens Luxhoy,
of 562 Sayre avenue, was stopped by
q stranger who, after addressing him
with, What do you want?" pulled
revolver and shot him through the
right lung In spite of his injury
Luxhoy ran after the first shot as he
feared the man might fire again. The
injured man finally reached the home
of Nels Peterson in Sayre avenue
where he managed to gasp out his
story.
Realizing that the man was badly
injured Mr.. Peterson telephoned to
the police and asked them to send
DIR. M. s. Meinzer with an ambulance
Immediately. Sergeant Mulligan de-
tailed Patrolman Weitzen and Patrol
man MCGOWAN on the case and they
hurried to the place with the physi-
clan. DR.. Meinzer after an examina-
tion found that the bullet had enter
ed Luxhoy's chest and passed through
his right lung, lodging somewhere in
the back. The doctor probed fully
eight inches for the bullet, but was
unable to find 1t last night.
He said this morning that Luxhoy
is in serious condition and will
make another effort today to remove
the leaden pellet. With the physi-
clans consent the police placed the
injured man in the ambulance and
: took him to his home at 562 Sayre
avenue, only short distance from
Petersons.
After he had received medical at
tention Luxhoy gave the police a de-
scription of his assailant. He said
the man was short and stout, clear
shaven, wore light suit of clothes
and looked like a Hungarian. Lux
hoy had been calling on friend and
was walking the tracks on his way
home when near the bridge a man
suddenly appeared in front of him
and said, What do you want?" Lux
hoy says he didn't answer until the
man repeated the question and then
he replied Il don't want anything.
The next instant he says he saw q
fash of metal, followed by a report
and a sting in his breast. Being un-
armed Luxhoy turned and ran.
Roundsman Morris and several po-
licemen went to the bridge and
searched the premises for several
hours but were unable to find any
trace of the man. The trains and
ferries were also watched this morn
ing and later Detective Huff and
County Detective r. A. Peltier start
ed work on the case. Every effort is
being made to capture the assailant
as, If Luxhoy should die he would be
charged with murder. The injured

as he knows he has not an enemy In

Constable O'Brien
Has Exciting
Time With
Bakers.
Is IN CROWD
Came to fIeishman's Shop
in Oak Street and Set
Upon Worker Officer
Went to His Aid--0ne
Has Hearing TCday.

Another attempt was made by the
striking bakers yesterday morning
to force the non-union men in Bar
net Fleishman's shop at 261 Oak
street to quit work, but the strikers
were put to fight by Constable
James F. O'Brien, who was COM
PEELED to use his revolver. One of
the bullets from the officers gun
passed through the foot of H. Pore
sky, of New York, who, it is said, is
the labor organizer who formed the
union Of the bakers recently.
As soon as the constable began
shooting the strikers broke ranks
and fed to their headquarters back
of a clothing store on Hall avenue,
where the injured man was attended
later by DR.. NJ S. Meinzer. The
physician found that the bullet had
entered the sole of the mans foot
and passed through It. lodging Just
under the skin at the top. Poresky
returned to New York later.
Constable O'Brien, who has been
on duty at the shop since the strike
started, says that crowd of about
fifteen of the strikers came to the
shop shortly before 1880 o'clock yes
ltiudy nOIHluB al uieu Will siOHcc
and clubs and attacked one of the
workmen. who was out in the yard.
The constable was in the shop at the
time and hearing the noise ran OUT
side, where he saw the mob pummel-
ing the non-union man. The con-
stable jumped into the melee and
began to use his fists TO a good ad-
vantage when the strikers turned on

fired, thinking 1t would scare them
away. The reports had the desired
effect and the men fed. The consta-
BILE fired low and Poresky was the
only one hit.
Morris Koretkin. twenty-five years
old, of 372 Prospect street, one OF
the strikers. who was arrested last
week on a charge of having hit Louis
Goldstein, with weight in the shop,
was given a hearing before Recorder
Pickersgill this morning and held in
default OF $500 bail to await the
action of the grand pury. He plead
ed not guilty and declared that Cold
stein had hurt himself in falling. He
said that on the day in question he
went into the shop to ask Goldstein
to stop work and that he was at
tackled and thrown out During the
alteration, he added, Goldstein fell
and cut his head
Constable O'Brlen told the recor-
der that Koretkin was in the row
yesterday morning and had a rock
in his hand when seen. The striker
denied 1t, but Patrolman Hanson
testified that he had seen Koretkin
running away from the place. Con-
stable O'Brien escorted Goldsteiu
back to his work after the hearing,
and is on guard at the shop again
today.
