ESSEX COUNTY'S 1910
RECEIPTS S3,O5O,5IO.

The receipts for Essex county during
1910 amount to $1,000, 80 AS. This amount
is a large increase over any previous
year., owing to the increased amount
received from taxes. More than $1,000, :
900 of this sum has been turned in to
County Auditor Edward l.. Conklin
during the past ten days. The receipts
would have been a great deal larger
had it not been for the county's failure
to dispose of $4,000 worth of bonds
issued on the county institutions at
Soho and Overlook. The county issued
5000, 900 worth Of bonds, 500, 900 on each
institution. only $1,000 o of which were
sold.
The expenditures for the year,
amounting to 81, s14. 010. 80. compare ia
vorably with those of previous years.
More money was paid out to employees
and less for improvements. Three men

WIFE OF COINER CONFESSES
TO MAKING OF COUNTERFEITS

YORK. Pa, Dec. 31.-In an attic at
the home of Herbert Throne in Spring
Grove, this county, yesterday morning.
Chief of Detectives White, of York, un-
covered a counterfeiter's workshop and
arrested Thorne and Martin Shue.
Spring Grove men. as the counterfeit
ers. Beside the tools of the trade, he
got a number of counterfeit half dol
lars, OF the same remarkable workman
ship as a number of quarters and
halves which have for a year been in
circulation here. defying the best ef-
forts of the officers to trace the source
of the output.
Thrones wife broke down and con-
|fessed that the men had been engaged
for at least a year in counterfeitinx.
The detective found TffefF sstT7ns
the mixture of which the coins were
composed. 1t consisted of glass. lea
and Rabbit metal. Their other equip
ment consisted of cunning plaster
moulds. Shue, in a partial confession.
admitted that he and Throne had par
~ticipated in ~robbing the Baugher groc-
cry store in Spring Grove on the night
of November 20. and on several pre-
vious occasions.

plays in Newark at religious af1airs,
political parades or other celebrations.
The usual work of issuing licenses for
the storage of kerosene, gasoline, naph-
tina, ~gun-cotton and all the long list of
explosive and combustible materials
has been carried forward with unabated
vigor and complaints to the number of
more than a thousand have been inves-
tigated with varying results.
The assistant inspector of the bureau,
Fireman James L. J~enkinson, has been
active in field work, n 1t has been his
lot to secure the removal of obstruc-
tons from f1~re-escapes. to look for vio-
~lations, and to be especially wideawake
in the departments efforts to kill the
pernicious bonfire idea that has resulted
in the deaths Of a dozen children a
year in this immediate locality.
Many inspections have been made
and hundreds of recommendations made
to owners of buildings and factories
urging them to take more precautions
for the prevention of fires.
In spite of all the work done by this
bureau the net loss due to fires in
Newark during the year has been
larger than the average. Conditions
cannot be changed overnight, and there
are in Newark many buildings which
according to the inevitable law of aver
ages must be burned down and replaced
by freproof structures before n great
relief may be expected from a cessa-
ton of fire losses. 3.
Many of the years big fires were
directly due to the efforts made by
owners or employees of the buildings
damaged to put out the fires them>
selves before calling upon the paid fire
department.
The work of the bureau has been
consistently toward the prevention of
fire and such work has, of course,
shown only negative results. as no one
may point to any record or building
and say that a fire in this OF that place
has actually been prevented.

THE NATURALIZATION COURT
ALMOST DOUBLES BUSINESS.

The Naturalization Court was very
popular during 1910, according to figures
furnished by Francis A. Fiore, natur-
alization clerk in the county clerks Of
fee. Against APT persons who applied
for final papers in 1909 there were 1872
this year, an increase of 800 for the
wear. OF this number A per cent. were
Italians. the total being 1926. Next In
lumber were former citizens of Russia,
who numbered 1853. The greater part
of the Russians were Russian Jews.
Germany had 70 and Austria 81
names in the list; Great Britain and

other countries represented by five or
less were: Denmark, with 4; Norway,

During 1910 Newark Firemen
Responded to 1904 Alarms,
100 of Which Were False.

With the increase in the population
of Newark there has also been a great
increase in the number of fires for the
last year. Up to date, for the year of
1910, h local h~re-fighters have an
swered 1,034 alarms Of fire, Of which
twenty were second and third alarms
n l06 false alarms. This is eighty
eight alarms more for 1910 than is
shown on the 1909 records, an increase
OF 10 per cent.
Twenty-Five Deaths at One Fire.
The property losses for this year
are not yet compiled, but it Is said
they will equal last year, while the
loss of life this zee was compare
lively great. twenty-five being burned
to death or dying as the result Of
injuries sustained during a factory fire
in High street, November 26. In its
results this fire was one of the greatest
catastrophies of the veal In the East.
The chief causes of small fires were
carelessness with matches, defective
fiues, smoking. oil, gas and candle
tafns and draperies.
The cause of fire in the larger blazes

There have been three epidemics of
false alarms and several arrests have
been made in connection with these,
mostly in the "Hill section" Frequent
false alarms have beer turned in as
a result of dense smoke.
Only Four Christmas Tree Fires.
There have been but four Christmas
tree fires this year and Captain c. Al
bert Gasser. of the Bureau of Com
bustibies. expresses pleasure with this
record. He says that people are glad
to help the Fire Department in safe
guarding against such fires in the
stores and homes, and points out that
the enviable result this year shows
the wisdom of exercising precaution.

FIRE PREVENTION CODE
BROUGHT DOWN TO DATE.

Perhaps the most important accom-
plishment during the year 1910 in the
Bureau of Combustibles and Fire Risks
has been the practical enactment of g
fire prevention code. This new ordi'
nance Is now ready for third reading
and final passage, and as no further
| changes or amendments are anticipa-
ted, there is no bar to its becoming g
legal requirement by the first day OF
the year with the approval of Mayor
Haussling.
The code is based upon the expe.
riences of the bureau since it's creation
by the Board of Fire Commissioners
in March, 1907. The chapter of the ole
revision of the city ordinances for the
prevention of fire comprised sixteen
sections, every one of which was
passed more than twenty years ago.
The words, moving picture theatre
films, automobile garage, underground
tanks, lacquer, clothes-cleaning estab.
lishments and similar words and
phrases do not occur in these old-time
ordinances. The world has moved or
some since their enactment, and the
new code, which was prepared and
written by Captain C. Albert Gasser
the superintendent of the bureau, takes
cognizance of all the changes in com
mercial life and the amusement world,
and provides Safeguards in the han
ding of explosive and highly infamma-
BILE materials.
The ode takes out of the old ordi-
nances all the best features and adds
to these ffty-one sections, the provis-
Ions of which, if lived up to, will mate
-talI- IoozA, fha don0or IF 6ra and
panic.
The years work in this compare
lively new department of municipal
government covered a wide field OF
usefulness. One of the most important
rulings made was that the use of in
iammable moving-picture films was
absolutely prohibited. The films are Of
~pyroxalin plastic, which is the techni-
cal name of a product similar to cellu-
loid. The word celluloid is a trade
name, patented and copyrighted by the
Celluloid Company, of this city, but so
universal a become the use OF this
word that even the dictionaries define
1t to mean a compound of fibre and
nitric acid.
The films in use are not all 1re-proof
simply because the rule says they
should be, but it is believed that fully
80 per cent. of the films used are nom
iniammable, and the percentage is
growing steadily toward the mark
when all such films In use in this city
will be coated with flre-proof material.
From the very beginning of the year
which is now passing into history the
Bureau of Combustibles held stead
tasty to the purpose of reducing the
LANCER of fires and accidents due to
fireworks. A new ordinance was passed
at the request of the superintendent,
and the rules and regulations compiled
by Captain Gasser so rigidly enforced
hat the number of persons injured
was reduced from eighty odd in 1909 10
about fifteen in 1910.
The matter of fireworks displays at
other times than IN Independence Day
has also received its share of attention,
and with the passage of the new code
there Will be no more fireworks dis

SEPTEMBER BANNER MONTH
FOR GUESTS AT THE JAIL,

Commitments at the county jail dur
ing the year 1910 numbered 4,0S4. OF
this lumber about $500 were what is
known as precinct commitments and
consisted of prisoners who were only
detained in the jail over night or fol-
twenty hours at the most.
The average number for the year
was 210 prisoners each day, and they
served a total of 1919 days. Septem-
Der furnished the highest average Of
daily prisoners, with 24s, while during
August, when the courts were not in
session. made up the largest number
OF days served, with 1854, Yesterday
there were 23s prisoners in the Jail, and
it is costing an average of twelve cents
a day to feed them. I'VE used to be
able to feed our prisoners at a cheaper
rate, but the increased cost Of food has
