While patrolling his beat early
this morning Policeman Charles
Quinn noticed smoke and fire issuing
from the roofs of the Goldberger row
at 424, 426 and 428 State street. He
turned in an alarm of fire from box
46, at State street and Washington
street, at 3:45 o'clock.
After sounding the alarm Quinn
raped at the doors of the different
apartments and aroused the occu-
pants. When the frightened inmates
saw the smoke issuing from the roof
and flames forging about they could
not be quelled and out to the street
they fastened with what clothing
they could grab while in flight.
The firemen quickly responded and
extfnguished the blaze with only $50
damage. Over the roof of 424 an
electric wire became exposed and
shot fire along the cornice, heating 1t
to such a degree that the woodwork
became ignited. AS the sparks and
fire shot along the cornice Of the
three apartments it seemed that the
entire building was mass of flames.

WANT TAFT TO
INSPECT SOUND
Staten Island Sound Deep
Waterway Association Ex-
tends Invitation to Him.
GO WITH CONGREssMEN
Trip to be Made in Intsrast
of Securing a 40 Foot
Channel.
60 WITH C0NGREssHEN
(From the NEWS Correspondent. }

Washington, May 12:-James N.
Stout, Secretary of the Staten Island
Sound Deep Waterway Association,
called yesterday upon number Of
the New Jersey Representatives in
Congress and solicited their interest
In and support of a trip which the
association plans to take during the
extra session of Congress, by which
party Of national Legislators Will
be given a chance to personally in
spect Staten Island Sound and ada
cent waters. The trip Is designed
with view to obtaining an appro-
priation for the improvement Of the
waterway. Primarily, Mr.. Stout
came to Washington to find out when
lit would be convenient fo- President
Taft to join in the proposed trip. He
called at the White House, and as
the result of information obtained
there the invitations for the Con-
gressional party will soon be is
sued.
Preliminary Examinations.
Congress has already authorized
| the United States Engineer office to
make a preliminary examination of
New York Harbor with view to Sc
curing increased width and depth of
water from Southwest Spit, north
west Of Sandy Hook, through lower
New York Bay, Raritan Bay and the
channel between New Jersey and
Staten Island to the channel in up
per New York Bay. Colonel Will
lam T. Rossell has been assigned as
| the engineer officer in charge of this
work. He has requested informa-
tf~n from PARTIES se-I,<,=sa1.s <srssts ss<5
in the improvement of the district to
be surveyed and has already been
acquainted with the wishes of the
Staten Island Sound Deep Waterway
Association.
Mr.. Stout told the members of
Congress whom he met yesterday
that 1t was the desire of the Water
way Association to have the channel
between Southwest Spit and upper
New York Bay dredged to q depth
sufficient to afford 40-foot draught
at ebb tide, and also to have the
channel made 1000 feet wide. BY
making these improvements, he said,
Staten Island Sound would be open
to all ocean-going craft and the traf-
flc thereon tremendously increased.
TT will probably surprise a good
many people," explained Mr.. Stout,
ito know that even now the Staten
Island Sound has the second heaviest
tonnage OF any waterway in the
world. By giving us 1,000-foot
channel with 40-foot draught, 1t will
open up the Sound as waterway for
incoming ocean freighters of any ca
paoity, the largest of which are now
compelled to come up New York Bay
on the other side of Staten Island -
Such result, Mr.. Stout argued to
the New Jersey congressman, would
give their state great deal of valu-
able commerce which Is barred out
at the present time on account of the
ocean craft not being able to come
alongside It's shores.
