PLENTY OF HEROES.
Firemen Show That tho Country
Would BE Ably Defended.
(New York World.)


The theory that war is necessary
to keep the fighting efficiency of a
nation up to par was pretty effective
ly refuted at the Equitable fire.
When civic life develops from the Or
dinary run Of men fire-fghting
force with the discipline, competence
and courage displayed by the New
York fire department in mastering a
fire of such formidable proportions
In the teeth Of gale and under con-
ditions Of exposure which put the
seVerest strain on human endurance,
there need be no fear as to where
the country's defenders will come
from when they are wanted.
The theory Of the militarists has
indeed been disproved time and
again where and whenever the mettle
OF the American fireman is put to the
test. Do the Cushings and the Hob
sons do anything braver than the
battalion chief who leads the way to
danger and perishes at his post "in
the line Of duty?"
While there are men like Walsh
there VIII be no lack of leaders Of
iorlorn hopes on the battlefields of
the country's future wars, or Of ad-
mirals who damn the torpedoes"
and go ahead.

SAY HE KEPT THE FACTS HID.
A. 0. Simpson Accused OF Misinform-
ing Stockholders and Specializing.

Spartanburg, Jan. 18.-The COM
plant was filed Wednesday in the
suit Of certain former stockholders
of the Farmers Fertilizer Company
against A. o. Simpson, the secretary
treasurer.
They charge that in violation Of his
duty as trusted officer, and in viola
tion of the obligation which he owed
to the stockholders, he ascertained
what the company's property could
be sold for, but instead Of informing
them of the true state Of affairs, kept
the facts concealed and misinformed
the stockholders and led them to be-
lieve by his stat ments that the af-
fairs of the company were in an en-
barrassing condition, thereby induc-
ing the stockholders to sell their
stock at much less than he knew he
would realize for the stock, and at
much less than it was actually worth,
and that he purchased all, or nearly
all, of the stock from the individual
stockholders and then sold it, to-
gether with the property Of the COM
pany, at a profit, and that Mr.. Simp-
son increased his profits still fur-
ther by retaining for himself large
number OF accounts due to the COM
pany and a large number Of tons Of
fertilizer on hand.
The stockholders demand that Mr..
Simpson be required to account to
them for his acts and to pay them
the difference between the sum he
paid for the stock purchased by him
and the amount realized by the sale
Of the property.
The complaint was sworn to be B.
J. Vaughan.

EMPLOYERS LIABILITY LAW
Upheld by U. s. Supreme Court.
States May Enforce Act.

Washington, Jan. 15.-The con-
stitutionality OF the employers liza
bility law, passed by Congress in
1908, was to-day upheld by the Su-
preme Court Of the United States In
all cases before 1t. The court also
decided that State courts may en-
force that act when local laws are
appropriate.
The decision was unanimous and q
complete victory for the government
on every point.
Justice Vandevanter declared Con-
gress had tho right to regulate the
relation Of Interstate railroads to
their employees.
Congress had not gone beyond It's
power by abrogating the common law
rule that an employer was not liable
for the injuries resulting to en-
ployees by the negligence Of fellow
servants.
No one has a vested property
right in the common law" said the
justice.
He found that the present law did
not regulate the intra-State COM
merce, and, therefore, was not objcc-
tionable on that ground.
No objection was found in the fact
that tho act did away with the doc
trine Of assumption Of risk" by en-
ployees and restricted the doctrine
Of "contrlbutory negligence"
The opinion changes the old COM
mon law rule that an employee Of
common carrier could not procure
damages from the carrier for inju-
ries received in his employment when
the injuries resulted from the ncgli-
gence OF fellow-servant. The first
law, that enacted in 1906, was de-
clared unconstitutional in 1908 be-
cause 1t embraced within It's terms
regulation Of intra-State commerce
as we'll as Interstate.

FIREBUG ADMITS HIS GUILT,
Fires Charged 10 Him Caused Loss of
$3OO,OOO.

charleston News and Courier, 19th)
Arrested yesterday morning at the
burning Of the Charleston Fibre Com
pany's plant, at the west, end Of
Spring street, Marion Burdell, a
yc"ns white inan, WHO has been
watched for weeks by pinkerton de-
tectiYes, confessed some hours later
to many acts Of incendiarism, among
these being the starting of the big
Meeting street fire of July 8, 1910, in
which six large stores in the heart Of
the wholesale district were practi-
cally destroyed with a loss Of over
S215,000 Among other fires which
Burdell confessed to having started
were the Leland Moore Paint Store
fire on March II, 1908, which occa-
stoned loss of $23,000; the base
bali park fire Of December Of last
year; the two recent fires at Bethel
Sunday school, and the Union Cotton
Press box car fire Of December, 1911,
In which property valued at nearly
half million dollars was imperrilled.
Burdell gave no reason for any of his
incendiary acts.
Burdell is young white man Of
about 20 years OF age and apparently
Of sound mind. He was apprehended
yesterday morning just as he stepped
from the building occupied by the
Charleston Fibre Company at the
west end of Spring street, which he
confessed to having set on. fire. His
arrest followed as result Of careful
investigation by expert detectives, one
Of whom has been watching him since
January 2. His confession was made
yesterday afternoon shortly before
o'clock to Chief Of Police Cantwell,
Chief Of Detectives Hogan and the
| two Pinkertons who have been on his
| trail. The property loss occasioned
| by the fires which Burdell has admit
ted starting amounts to something
like 100000 and at least twice he
has started fires which endangered
property valued at approximately
half million.
Seen at Many Fires.
Burdell was first suspected by Fire
Chief Behrens because or the fact
that at many fires which were sus-
pected of being Of an incenliary ORR
gin, Burdell was always the first to
be seen when Chief Behrens arrived
on the ground. 1t seemed that the
young man threw caution to the
winds and remained to watch the
blaze he had started, this being taken
by some as an indication that he had
no motive In starting the fires, and
| that 1t was merely with him form
or pyromania, an overwhelming de-
sire to see the flames. The fact that
he set fire to his own premises would
seem to indicate this also.
During the month Of December
1911, particularly was Chief Beh-
rens's-attention attracted to Burdell
and he became so positive that he had
the right man under suspicion that
through his direction the board of
hremasters employed Pinkerton de-
tective, who arrived here from Phila-
delphia on January 2, and began the
work OF obtaining evidence against
| Burdell.
