VIOLATION
OF THE LAW
Can the State Protect Its
Game?
A SERIOUS CHARGE.
A Story that Should Awaken the
Interest of Somebody Who
Has Authority.

A story of most fragrant violation
of law has been given the Pioneer,
and should merit the closest and most
searching investigation. The author
of the story, or more properly speak
ing, the informant, says that the deer
law of the state is being openly vio-
lated. AS a specific instance, the fol-
lowing facts are given:
On Wednesday, November 16, a
party of sportmen, some of whom
were employed as city officials, in
one of the municipalities of the state.
arranged to hunt deer.
These men employed guides to take
hunt started, the dogs started a deer
city officials for their services
Two of these guides are employed
by the state as deputy game wardens,
drawing money from the state to see
that the law is not violated The
guides met the city officials on the
morning of Wednesday, November
10th. These deputy wardens furnished
two dogs for the hunt, despite the fact
that the law prohibits the running of
deer with dogs. Not long after the
hunt started, the dogs tarted deer
and the animal was killed by one OF
the deputy wardens or guides. The
other guide, also a deputy warden,
shot at, wounded and brought blood
from doe. Under the law it is
crime to shoot doe
The deputy wardens paid by the
state, received a good fee from the
city officials for their services
1t may be said that this violation
of law did not happen in Cumberland
County.

WILL DISCUSS
WATER PLANS
City Must Have a Greater
Supply.
REPORT NEXT MONTH
Engineer Potts Will Probably Pre-
sent Complete Plans Here on
Tuesday, Dec. 9th.

Clyde Potts, the New York civil and
sanitary engineer expects to be able
to present to City Council, Tuesday,
December 9Th, a complete plan, with
his recommendations for future wa
ter supply for Bridgeton
Mr.. Potts has been authorized and
directed by City Council to go into
the matter at length and present such
plans and recommendations as will
provide pure and wholesome water
here for many years.
1t is known that the engineer is
convinced that the City Park property
will provide all the water that the city
will need no matter if it more than
doubles in population. 1t is also as
sured that the water can be easily
secured. The class of water is be-
yond question pure and Wholesome
The water supply for Brtdgeton
now is inadequate. The wellssat East
Bridgeton do not supply the necessary
water for the city while it has been
understood by members of City Ceun-
Gil and the members of the Board of
Health, that no pond water has been
used for weeks, yet it is said that
East Lake water is turned Ilto the
plant every day and considerable
quantities used. Just why Council or
the Board of Health shoult be- de-
ceived in the matter does not appear
City Council members realize the
Importance of the Water problem and
are preparing to meet it. After the
plans and recommendations afs; pre-
sented by the engineer they VIII be
explained to the public and everyone
interested will be given ample opsor-
tunity to pass upon the plans and ex-
press their opinion, and CouncilIlen
will welcome advice and suggestion.
After giving this matter full and
serious consideration in all it's phases,
the local legislature will provide or
the. plan finally determined sApsn,
and the building of the new plantvill

was a lifeless form. Not one had
made an effort to save the young man
drowning before their eyes. Ferri,
the room mate and companion had
stood like statute and witnessed the
drowning and had made no outcry.
The alarm brought hundreds to the
bridge, including the police officers.
Several boats were manned, graphing
irons were secured and long search
was made for the body
Shortly after II o'clock a graphing
iron caught the lifeless form and it
was brought to the serface. The hoat
was in charge of Charles Riley and
Edward Lutz. The body was taken in
charge by undertaken Harry Garrison.
County Physician Charlesworth had
made full investigation, and it was
evident to him that Figiorgia had ac-
cidently walked overheard Ferri,
who had been with the victim admit
ted that he had been drinking consid-
cradle, but would not say that the
drowned man had taken a drink.
Both Figiorgia and Ferri live at 16
Mulberry street The victim of the
accident was rs years old, has an un-
Gle in Philadelphia, and his father,
Joseph Figiorgia, is in Italy. The
uncle has been notified and will prob
ably be here today and take charge of
the body.
Figiorgia, popularity and Familiarity
known as pete" spends the summer
with a hand-cart selling ice cream
sandwiches. Few children in the city
but know him we'll.
Recently "Pete" had been working
at the Central railroad yard. When
his body was recovered last night he
had in his pockets two uncashed
checks, one for $50 and the other for
$40. In addition he had $S.S2 in cash.

WALKED THROUGH

Well Known Italian in Some Mys-
terious Manner Walks from the
Street into Bridge Draw,
Which Was Open.


dozen, possibly score of people, with
his companion of the night calmly
looking on and making no effort to
assist, a young Italian, quite we'll
known was drowned last night in the
Cohansey river at the Broad street
bridge.
The tragedy occurred about $50
last night. The steam barge Lizzie
d" of the Pixton company fleet, sig
nailed to open the draw of the Broad
street bridge, the boat being on its
way down the river from the wharf
of the Bridgeton and Millville Trac-
tion Company.
Bridge tender John Ryan was per-
sonally at his post of duty. Before
unlocking the bridge and turning off
the deck, Ryan put up the guard
chains on either side of the bridge.
These chains are supported from posts
that are set in the street, back from
the bridge abutments about dozen
feet There are posts on the curb line
OF the street, and the chain crossing
the roadway is supported from these
posts, there being an iron rod attached
to the chain which supports the chain
in the centre. This rod also supports
a danger flag of red, and also a red
lantern. Across the sidewalk on
either side of the street, another piece
of chain is carried a distance of about
II feet. The chain, when in position,
completely protects the open draw of
the bridge, but a person can walk
around it on either end if so disposed.
When the barge Lizzie D' was ap-
preaching the draw, there were stand
ing about, on either side of the bridge
a number of people Some say there
were from a dozen to score of peo-
pie on the west approach. There
were several people on the moving
deck of the bridge as it swung out
over the river.
After the bridge had swung open the
two Italians came along on Broad
street moving toward the bridge. One
was Fortunate Figiorgia, popularity
known as Pete. He was accompanied
by Nick Ferri. The two had been up
about the skating rink at Broad and
Atlantic streets.
The two Italians walked out around
the chain over the south sidewalk.
Both Italians walked near the bridge
abutments. No one paid particular
attention to them. 1t was light, 80
candle power incandescent lamp was
just over their heads. No one sup
posed that either man was in the
slightest danger of going overheard.
Suddenly, without warning, not the
slightest outcry being heard, mans
form shot through the air, there was
a splash in the water and everyone
realized there was a man overheard.
Bridge-tender Ryan heard the splash
and called out, "Is there somebody ov-
erboard?" There was an affirmative
reply. Ryan looked over into the riv-
er and noted, for an instant, the
struggling form of a man.
Quickly he ran the bridge on with
view of getting down under the
bridge on the abutments and giving
a helping hand, but in this short time
the tragedy had ended, and some
where beneath the icy, black water

BIG PRESS
CONCERN HERE

AS announced. by the Industrial
committee of the Bridgeton CONNER
cial League, the Casimar Won Philliu
Company, manufacturers of the CAST
mar printing press, will be in the very
near future be an industrial enterprise
for this CITY, The company has for
some years been operating in Bethle-
hem, but the capacity of the plant is
far too small for the growing business
and more complete and absolutely
modern plant will be established here,
The company has leased the entire
first floor of the new factory building
OF the Commercial League Corpora
ton.
More than $4,000 will be invested
at once in machinery for the plant.
A large number of skilled mechanics
Will be employed by the concern. The
company will use its plant for the
assembling of the press, all of the
parts being made in other plants, the
castings to be done in foundries in
Bridgeton.
The "Casimar'' is new press. an
invention that has revolutionized
printing. The machine is a high
speed, automatic web-fed, bed and
platen printing press. The press
takes the roll stock at one end, and
drawing it in straight line through
the press by means of an intermittent
feed motion, delivers the finished pro-
duct at the other end. The machines
while simple of construction, are of a
very powerful design, and we'll adapt
ed to embossing or other work reuuir-
ing heavy and rigid impression. One
OF the most distinguishing features of
the eastman press lies in that it is
stplt on the unit system, thus enab-
lingte printer to purchase a machine
to fulfiffShis present requirements, and
at the same time, make provisions for
his possible &ztrue needs, without
burdening himself with an investment
IN machinery from which he receives
no immediate return.
! The design of the Casimar press,
while intended for all classes of man
ufacturing job printing, permits of the
machine being adapted to many spec
lal classes of work, such as cash sales
books, in either duplicate or triplicate,
tag machinery. index cards, baggage
checks, tickets in rolls, etc., as at
tachments for various specialties can
be readily attached to the press at
any time.
The press will operate simply and
smoothly turning out the finished pro-
duct, ready for shipment, at speed
OF 5000 to $500 full forms per hour.
