JOHNSON'S
HOTEL BURNED
Essex Junction House a Total
Loss
MONEY LOSS IS $4,000
Blaze Starts in the Kitchen-only Two
Streams of Water Were Avail

Pressure.
MONEY LOSS IS $4,000

Essex Junction, Nov. ls.--Walter j.
Johnson's hotel here was burned TO the
ground last night, causing a loss esti-
mated Mt over $4,000, partly covered
| by insurance. The fire started in the
kitchen chimney at 6:20 last evening
and burned out about Q o'clock. The
stables, garage and carriage repository
were saved.
The kitchen was located in an ell and
when the fire was discovered it had a
good start. The fire alarm was sounded
and the Essex Junction department re-
sponded. 1t was seen at once that help
would be needed, and a call was sent
to Burlington.
The auto fire truck with load of hose
and men made the run to this place in
ID minutes and with adequate water
pressure much of the building could
have been saved. As ii was, only two
effective streams were available and the
entire three-story structure was de-
stroyed.
There were no guests in the house at
the time. Some of the furniture was
saved, but in damaged condition, plate
glass mirrors being thrown from the
HttuDu Ioti Hl0btiOosNot bVNR7
andirons brought down the stairs.
Mr.. johnson last night could not pace
a close estimate on his loss or insur-
ance, but set the loss at about $4,000,
part OF which is insured. The hotel was
built about As years ago and had q
rooms. 1t was widely known as stop
ping place for travellers.
Snow began to fall soon after the fire
started and helped to save buildings in
the vicinity, notably the Central YER
mont station, which had narrow es
cape.
Sparks flew in every direction, famed |
by a strong breeze from the northwest,
and the entire village was in danger I
part of the time.

TELLING THE NEWS PROMPTLY
AND ACCURATELY.

The inquiry into the Titanic disaster
reveals how alert was the Associated
Press in announcing to the world that
the great steamer had been struck by an
iceberg and was sinking, and also how
accurate was the information. In his
testimony before the hearing in Wash
ington yesterday, Vice President Frank
lir of the White Star line admitted that
he had been called up at lao a. M. OF
the day of the disaster and was request
ed to listen to the reading OF dispatch,
which stated that following the collision
between the steamer and the iceberg the
Titanic was sinking. The time when
Vice President Franklin was given the
information by the Associated Press was
only two hours or 50 after the accident
had happened, Notwithstanding the fact
that the scene of the collision was $50
miles from land. Moreover, the dispatch
was exactly correct, as later events
proved; the Titanic was sinking and in
less than three-quarters Of an hour the
vessel had gone beneath the surface OF
the sea-
But in spite of this information, the
White Star officials seem to have re.
fused obstinately to believe the state
ment; and through long morning and
forenoon of suspense the counter state
ment was put out that the Titanic was
being towed into Halifax and that all
the passengers had been transferred.
But between II and o'clock OF the
early afternoon came the confirmation
of the Associated Press first dispatch in
| the announcement that the Titanic had
sunk and that the Carpathia had picked
up a few boats carrying the survivors.
Nevertheless, the conhrmatory report
was withheld from the anxious public
through an intermnable afternoon OF
waiting on the part OF those who had
friends or relatives aboard the liner; and
it was not until o'clock in the evening,
or thereabouts, that the terrible news
was admitted to the public Hence, it
was seventeen hours after the Associated
Press had first announced that the tt.
tanic was sinking that the White Star
people were ready to confirm the report.
The disaster certainly furnished the AS
ISOLATED Press the opportunity to dis
play its alertness; and it is probable
that if this great news gathering service
had been permitted to continue its work
untrammeled the accurate information
regarding the fate Of the Titanic would
have been placed before the world with.
out the interposing Of day Of suspense
and waiting.

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR
SAFETY FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN.
Citizen Urges Changing of Locations
for Some Of Children.

Editor, Daily Times: Will the shock
ing accident to the little Crowley girl
be an object lesson TO the school com
missioners? VIII they now take steps
to prevent the repetition of such hor-
rors? VIII they open the doors OF Elm
street school to the young children who
belong there?
On Elm, Park, East. Maple Grove and
Currier streets, including Eastern ave
nue., Currier park, Perrin hill and part
of the French estate. probably live more
than a hundred Young children, who be-
long to the four lowest grades counting
the baby grade. Elm street school is
the nearest for the most Of the children
and the natural place for them all 20
attend.
But these four grades are not allowed
in that school, Therefore all these
young children are obliged to attend
school at Church street. In getting there
they must cross Washington street, ei.
Their at it's junction with Academy OF
Church street Either crossing is full
Of danger To say nothing of autos and
other dangers, the electric cars pass
these points on the average every fifteen
minutes during the day.
The Crowley girl lives on Eastern ave-
nue.. Could she have attended school on
Elm street, the accident would not have
happened But, compelled to 60 past
that school, onward to Church street,
she was caught in the jaws Of danger.
A hundred other little ones are exposed
to the same danger four times each
school day.
Previous to the beginning of the pres
ent school year, a letter to The Times
called the attention Of the school com
missioners to this dangerous situation.
claiming that, unless the doors of Elm
street school were opened to the little
ones, accidents like that Detailing the
Crowley girl might happen The warn
ing was ignored and still is ignored.
Hence the sad result.
Marvellous as was the escape of that
girl, no less marvellous is this iceberg of
Indifference against which the little ones
may any day bunt up and go down to
instant death!
Change the course of this school-going
from danger to safety. 1t is easily done.

by jumping from a runaway team on

iures were, he was taken in hack to
the hospital, where it was found the
bone protruded through the flesh, and an
operation was at once performed. Mr.
Bowen remained in the rig and was UNI
injured except for a shaking up. One Of
the horses finally became entangled in
the harness and was thrown, stopping
the runaway. Mr.. Garvey is one of tho
best known travelling men who visits

The Court of Common Pleas came
to close on Friday, after having been
in session for nearly three weeks.
In the case of Starnes vs.. Starnes,
the trial of which was in progress
when we went to press last week, the
jury returned verdict in faver of tho
defendants. The plaintiffs were rep
resented by George Bell Zimmerman
and John F. Williams, while Messrs.
Efrd & Dreher and w. b. Sharpe ap'
peared for the defendants. q.
Judge Prince sustained demurrer in
the case Of Frick against the G.. n. &

sum of ten Thousand dollars. Thus
the case was thrown out, the plaintiff,
however, being given the right to
amend the complaint Messrs. Melton,

represented the plaintiffs, and Messrs.
Eard & Dreher and Joe-Berry Lyles

Motions for new trials were made in
