FIREMAN BLOWN
ACROSS CELLAR
Another Sinks With Floor.
Both Near Death at
Nutley Fire.

.
Blown across a cellar filed -four
feet deep with water, Robert Smith, a
fireman, had narrow escape from
death early today in fire at Wal
nut street and Park avenue, Nutley.
He had been sent to the cellar of
the two-story house to turn off the
gas. Just as he had waded to the
meter a tongue of flame burst through
fhe floor above and touched off the
heavy fumes.
A sheet of flames burst from the
cellar. Firemen dashing in to res
enc smith were nearly driven back
by the poisonous gases Cropping
around in the water, one of them
came upon Smith, who had sunk,
stunned. to the floor and carried
him out. He was revived and the
burns on his hands dressed.
When the explosion took place
Jacob Gilman, of the Yantacaw En-
CINE Company, was tending hose
on the first floor The flooring heayed
up beneath him and collapsed He
fell through, still clinging to the hose

dragged from his fiame-encircled
perch by other firemen.
A third fireman, Frank DeYausney,
was hurt by falling beam.
Although the actual damage was
only $1,000 there were enough alarms
sent in to serve for a million dollar
fire. All Nutley was awakened.
An employee of the Beaver Hat
Company, who saw the blaze, knew
that the number of the nearest box
was 50. but instead of pulling it he
ran into the factory and sounded the
number three times on the company s
giant siren.
The Nutley fire-eAters apparently
did not consider this official and paid
no attention. After while the
Beaver whistle repeated.
Fifteen minutes afterward some one
pulled the box and the official alarm
was sounded upon another factory
whistle. Then, twenty minutes after
the blaze was discovered, the first
company. the house of which was
three blocks away, arrived on the
scene.

MEET NATIONAL LEADERS
IFrom a stan Correspondent.I !


TRENTON. y. j.. Dec. sO-Presi-
dent-elect Wilson came to the State

ernor's health. The governor this
afternoon has appointments with
United States Senator John Sharp
Williams. of Mississippi. and United
States Senator William Chamberlain,
of Oregon.
Later in the afternoon the governor
will confer with Congressman Will

expert He also has appointments
this Afternoon to meet United States
Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee, and
Congressman John Hamilton Lewis,
of Illinois
Congressman Lewis, of Illinois, was
the first caller on the governor today.
Governor Wilson expressed himself as
particularly interested in Mr.. Lewis's
expectation that there would be two
Democratic senators returned from
Illinois and said: This would un-
doubtedly be what the country would
naturally expect in view of the fact
that the State had gone Democratic
and would naturally wish to be rep
resented in national affairs in the fun
spirit of the result"
United States Senator Chamber
lain, of Oregon, said he had suggest
ed to Governor Wilson the names Of
Joseph r. Teat and Judge viii r.
King, of Oregon. for cabinet port

Mass-meetings of the strikers be-
gan as early as a. M, and at day
light, in drizzling rain, picket
squads of twelve had been posted at
all the factories affected. In each
squad were at least two women.
Forty-five halls throughout the
city have been engaged by the
strikers for gathering places. Vio-
lence has been discountenanced by
the leaders, and the walkout today
was accompanied by no disorder.
The strike is(confined at present to
the makers of men and boys clothing.
OF the 125,000 workers in this indus
try, there are about 10000 women.
1t was declared today however, that
the Ladies' Garment Workers Union
was also at work organizing its forces
for the demand of an extension to
other branches of a peace agree
ment signed two years ago. and that
a strike of 10000 more workers would
be called to enforce the demand.
Largest Strike for Years.
The strike in the men and boys
clothing industry alone, however. will
be the largest New York has expe-
rienced in years, if the tie-up of this
industry proves as complete as the
leaders threaten. The total value of
the product of men and boys, cloth

no organized negotiations with the

strike was decided upon by a vote
in which 10000 of the workers par
ticipated.
The strikers will hold big mass
meeting tonight In Tammany Hall.
They have engaged forty-flve halls.
which are to be used as local head
quarters. where they can keep in
thorough touch with every develop

have a meeting next Sunday at the

clothing strike the biggest In that in

The police are today looking for

same friendly spirit Russia and the
United States agreed to pay over to
the other countries thirty per cent
of the seal catch of each year ana
to pay an agreed sum in case no
seals were killed. Russia and the
United States also agreed not to par
tcipate in this bonus paid by either,
consequently the thirty per cent paid
by those two countries is divided he
tween Great Britain and Japan. The
thirty percent paid by Japan is di-
vided between Russia. Great Britain.
and the United States, giving ten
per cent to each; Canada, having
no seal fisheries, has nothing to pay.
These concessions made, the real
object was attained in the absolute
prohibition of pelagic scaling to the
citizens OF the four countries. Every
person or vessel offending may be
seized and detained by duly author
lied officials TO be delivered to the
nation to which they belong, which
nation shall try the offender and i'm
pose the penalty.
/ Because the United States reserves
the right to discontinue altogether
the killing of the Pribilof Island
seals, a special arrangement was en-.
tered into whereby the United States
, makes an advance payment to Japan
and Great Britain of 100000 each
which payments are to be refunded
to the United States out of the pro-
ceeds of the British and Japanese
share of skins taken from the Ameri-
/ can herd. This is in the nature OF
loan, and was necessary only be
cause OF this country reserying the
right TO discontinue the killing Of
the Prbilof Island seals.
Each Of the countries to the agree
mont reserves the right to control
! its own herd and breeding grounds.
The period during which the conyen-
ion is to remain in force is fixed at
fifteen years, and thereafter termi-
mated by one years notice given by
any one of the parties after the eX-
piration of the fourteenth year.
Secretary Naeel seemed especially
optimsticoyer the convention because
it made possible the getting togeth-

ton. 1t shows, he thinks, the posi-
bility of agreement upon any subject

HEALTHY
MOTHERS

Women who bear children and re-
main healthy are those who prepare
their systems in advance of baby 5
coming. Unless the mother aids
nature in its prenatal work the crisis
finds her system unequal to the de-
mands made upon it, and she is often
left with weakened health or chronic
ailments. No remedy is so truly
help to nature as Mothers Friend,
and no expectant mother should fail
to use it. 1t relieves the pain and
discomfort caused by the strain on
the ligamerts, makes plant and elias
tic those fibres and muscles which
nature is expanding, prevents numb
ness of limbs, and soothes the inham-
nation of breast glands. The system
being thus prepared by Mother s
Friend dispels the fear that the crisis
may not be safely met. Mothers
Friend assures a speedy and complete
recovery for the mother, and she is
left a healthy woman to enjoy the
