Mems Spring Overcoats
SIP to SIS

1t is useless to remind old customers of
this store that every one of these suits is all
wool, every one bears the McGregor-guaran-
tee. We guarantee these suits to wear right
and to be all wool, not because some one told
us, but because we know, and we know be-
cause we made all of them ourselves right here
in Newark. At $1,000 our Atwood suits are
excellent appearing and satisfactory wearing
suits. At $4,000 and $500, our finest suits are
equal, If not superior to any ready-to-wear or
near the price; however, we want to tell you
about the suits which we sell between $500
and $500. Here we do the bulk of our inn
mense business and can safely say we have any
style, shade or fabric which is correct. All
sizes, in blues, grays, tans, stripes and checks,
made from serges, worsteds, cassimeres and
cheviots. We can fit you if you are regular,
thin, fat, short or tall.

Blacks, Oxfords and Fancy Overcoats IN
sizes from 80 chest measure up. Coats for the
tall men and stout men, with a good selection
of stouts and longs. You are not restricted
as to color or pattern. Stripes and diagonals
prevail in tans, grays and browns. All the coats
are up to the minute in style and fabric; they
compare favorably with the coats for which
the custom tailor keeps you waiting and
charges you twice as much. At $1,000 the
assortment is very large, and at $500 a silk
lined McGregor-N ewark-Made Overcoat is Ger
tainly unusual value. In the higher priced
coats there is good choice for the big man up
to 48 chest. We wish the big fellows who
think they cannot be fitted in ready-to-wear
clothes would stop in here and see how much
better we can do than the custom tailor, in style,
quality and fit.

night, The entire stock in the build
ing. a four-story structure with base
ment and tower. was ruined by smoke
and water.
The fire started in one of the stock
rooms on the top floor. and to prevent
the flames spreading to the Lauter
Piano Company's building and Mullins
& Company's four-story furniture store
on the east. and smaller stores on the
west, the frelnen assembled to the roof
of the Furst Company's building and.
ripping open holes there, flooded the
store with water. This proved effec-
tive in quenching the flames.
The fire was in the heart of the
shopping district. When the flames
were discovered, two alarms were sent
in.
The fire started shortly before 6
o'clock, when the 400 employees, mostly
girls. are preparing to go to their
homes.
When the girls on the lower floors
learned of the fire they displayed re-
markable nerve. Instead of causing a
panic. they remained in the building
and assisted the men employees in
covering up the stock on the various
floors with rubber covers.
Joseph E.. Bernstein, one of the city
directors of education, who is at the
head of the Furst Company, and sew
eral of his chief aides remained In the
building while the fire vas in progress.
After the girls had finished the work
of covering up the stock they formed
a fire drill and marched out.
The building extended from Newark
avenue through to Railroad avenue.
Nearly all of the principal trolley car
lines pass the store, and for more than
an hour ears were stalled.
STiremen Neil O'Brien and Herman
Egg IS. of No. 8 Engine Company. re-
turning from their supper discovered
the fire. They saw smoke coming from
a window on the top floor and turned
in the fire alarm. which was quickly
followed by a second.
Mr.. Bernstein was unable to deter
mine the amount of damage. He said
that there was between 5000, 900 and
$500, 600 worth of stock in the store,
nearly all covered by insurance.

was caused by spontaneous combustion

quantity OF clothing was being soaked
He added that he and his wife escaped
only with difficulty,
Following a loud report, lie said, the
tub shot forth a sheet of flame, which
quickly spread about the shop. 1t was
only by strenuous work the firemen
managed to save the apartments and
this was not accomplished until serious
damage had beer done by water and
smoke.

WITHDRAWS
HURT AND GILLETTE ALONE
STRIVE FOR RECORDERSHIP.
NAME NOT TO Be ON BALLOT
Question as tn Whether State Law or
Charter Governed Submitted to
Attorney by MayOr-Attorney
Holds State Law Governs.

II. T. Autry's name will not appear
upon the city ballots for tomorrow.
This was determined Saturday The
charter of the city says plainly that
the recorder must put upon the bal
lot the names of those legally nomi-
mated. The state law permits them
to withdraw Which to obey was a
question which Mr.. Hurt, the city
recorder, refused to decide, especial
ly as wrong decision would have
invalidated the election He insisted
that he act under a written opinion
delivered by an attorney selected by
the mayor and ordered to give the
opinion.
Attorney Moore was consulted and
decided that MIR. Autry's name should
not be printed on the ballot if the
demand for its withdrawal was pre-
sented in proper form. The first de-
mand was not drawn so as to comply
with the law. 1t was later corrected,
or rather replaced with a correct one,
after which the recorder took Autry's
name off the ballot.
Because of the fact that Mr.. Hurt
refused to proceed in the matter un-
til he had a written opinion protect
ing himself should the legality of the
proceeding be questioned, the report
was spread that he was attempting
to override the law to aid in his own
election. AS has heretofore been
found to be the case, Mr.. Hurt was
found to be literally obeying the law.
