WOMEN NARROWLY
ESCAPE DROWNING
Caught by Undertow at Bradley
Beach, Mrs. Garrigan and
Companion Had Close Call.

Almost, but not quite Is the apt
expression used by Mrs Matthew Gar

had just carried off one of the athletic
events and was returning with his prize
to show his wife, when he came upon a
group working over two women who
were barely alive. Closer inspection
showed one Of them to be his wife.
It seems that Mrs. Garrigan and Miss
Calm went out short distance with no
thought of danger. When they tried to
return the undertow seized them
Frightened. they tried to work their
way in, but their struggles made their
predicament worse. They were going
down for the last time when the live
savers reached them.
Nothing could be seen Of Mrs. Garri-
gan at first, but Life-Saver Ellers, who
is connected with the Bradley Beach
corps, dived in and brushed against one
of her feet. Securing a firm hold. he
brought her to the surface and then to
the shore where first aid to the injured
WAS administered TODAY they are at
home recovering from the effects of
their experience, but cheerful none the
less.
At first a report was circulated that
1t was Miss Catherine Garrigan, of 46
West End avenue, who figured in the
incident. Miss Garrigan is sister of
Mr.. Garrigan, who is employed by the
hardware firm of Roe & Conover.

[rrom a stan Correspondent ]

TRENTON, Aug. 14.-In an opinion
prepared by Attorney General Edmund
Wilson, upon the request of Governor

legal holiday. The latter date is the
day upon which the special election will
be held to vote upon the constitutional

the opinion delivered by the late At

when other amendments were being
voted upon.
Just what effect the opinion will
have upon the opening or closing of

be out of danger today. The former
was stabbed in the head and the left
hand and received kicks about the abb
domen and the neck Smith sustained
slight stab in the head.
Struck Down with Rod
That Caprio's crime was done in a
desperate attempt to escape is the be-
lief of the jail warden and of the
guards. When the alleged murderer OF
Salvatore Borecca threw his cup and
spoon out of his cell Bryant was the
first to run to ascertain the cause OF
the disturbance. AS he entered the
cell Caprio struck him down with the
rod of iron, one end of which he had
ground to needie-point. Bryant's
cries attracted Smith, and he rushed
to the other keepers assistance. He
drew his gun, but it would not work

and shot. the bullet passing through

The echo of this shot, as it rever-

that a wholesale attempt at jail de-

found Bryant and Smith wounded he

Navy Department is To Be Re-

New Lines Soon.

Washington, D. c., Jan. 27.-Secre-
tary Newberry today made public his
plans for the complete reorganization
of the navy department. These plans
were recently agreed upon at a con-
ference held at the White House in
which President Roosevelt and several
experts participated.
The plans outlined call for the nam
ing of general board in which men
familiar with the navy in all of its
branches will have a large share. The
four constructing boards will be re-
assigned in such a manner that the
work of one will have to, pass in re-
view before the tree others. In this
way it is hoped that the progressives
will find way to put their ideas into
effect If found practicable.
