DEATHS BY GAS.
Fumes Killed Three in Bridgeport, Conn,
One by 0ne

Bridgeport, Conn, July GA thorough
investigation is being made into the
deaths Thursday night Of Charles B.
Reed secretary of the D. NJ. Read Dry
Goods company, and John Ruhl and his
wife, caretakers of the Reed estate on
Greenfield Hill, who were asphyxiated by
gas.
Ruhl was the first victim of the gas
fumes. Something went wrong with
the gas generating machine located in
small building somewhat removed from
the house
Ruhl went to the building to remedy
the trouble, and when he failed to re-
turn within a reasonable length of time
Mrs. Ruhl went 20 see what detained
her husband. She, too, was overcome
by the gas fumes, and it is supposed
that Reed, when the supply Of gas failed
to increase, went to see what the trouble
was, and in turn succumbed.
All three were found dead by Arthur
Jennings, a neighbor.

WOMEN SHER|FFS WOULD BE
GREAT HELP TO MORALITY

New York, Jan. 1S.-New Yorl;
may have women deputies, such as
Sheriff Julius Hamburger wants. The
Tammany Sheriff named number
Of them-and then found that it was
Illegal for a woman to be sworn in
as deputy sheriff.
But a woman iawyer-Mrs. j. s.
Valentine came to his aid and pre-
ared a bill which big Tim" Sulli-
van will try to push through the
New York legislature, providing for
the appointment OF women deputies.
Pretty misses and wealthy society
matrons may hereafter wear the
badge of a deputy sheriff and make
arrests just like male officers of the
law
Sheriff Julius Hamburger is respon-
sible, and he expects great things
from his female squad" Among
the women who have already been
named are Mrs John Crosby. prcsl-
dent of the New York Women's DEM
ocratic club, and Miss Cornelia Swim
merton, a leader of the Sunraglsts.
Mrs Caroline Truax, a widow OF
the late Justice Truax, is among 9TH
ers who are to be named, while a
list of names has been submitted by
Mrs. Crosby.
Sheriff Hamburger said today he
would appoint just as many women
deputies as there are applicants who
are mentally and physically ht to
serve. and who can furnish the $10,-
600 bond necessary. The women will
receive no compensation.
81 believe the morality of New
York city viii be greatly heightened
by the appointment OF my women

women will have full power to make
arrests the same as the men, They

the thought.

Then, too, there are women who

people by their actions on trains, in

do you think the women will have
any trouble getting their prisoners
to go to the station house?" was
asked.
'T do not think so. II you were
arrested by a pretty woman, would
you feel like resisting" the sheriff
replied

and Sheriff Hamburger pondered a

appointees would take this advan-

ney Is in a quandary although he has
received instructions from Attorney

This afternoon, Mr. Warner claimed
that he had not been asked TO give
a decision by the local authorities but
would do so # they should ask him.

to take the first step.
OF course, the decision OF the attor-

ARSON MOTIVES
ARE ANALYSED
Mischief Was Responsible
For 81 of the 85 Ohio
Convictions.
Marshall Zuber Reports
New Fire Inspection Law
is Great Success.

Columbus, o., Jan. 16.--Motives OF
arson convicts form a division of the
annual report of State Fire Marshal
Zuber to Governor Harmon, submit
ted yesterday. There were S5 convic-
tions in 1911 which is 10 more than
were secured in any previous year.
The loss of $685., 800 in 1910 was re-
duced to S5,4O0,O0O in 1911.
OF the S5 convicted, IA were at
tempting to defraud insurance COM
panies, 26 were actuated by malice or
revenge, three were trying to conceal
crimes, IL were insane or fire fiends,
while mischief was responsible for 81
fires.
MIR. zuber reports that the new fire
inspection law is a complete success
and has resulted i'm the demolition of
a large number of fire traps in the
principal cities. Ten times as many
inspections were made since the de-
partment has had authority to enforce
its orders as were made prior to the
enactment of the law.
The increased work made necessary
some increase in expeditures. The
total for the year was s7O.4OS.15. The
department has small balance in
its appropriation. Commenting on the
fire prevention work, Mr.. Zuber says:
"The moral hazard in Ohio is better
than in any other state in the Union"
