Broken Rail the Cause.
A broken rail is said to have caused
the accident. AS the crowded excur-
sion train rounded q curve the three
cars at the rear. literally packed with
passengers, suddenly left the track
and breaking away from the others,
rolled down the steep embankment.
The coaches practically were demol-
ished. Shrieks and groans OF the in
jured rose above the rending crash
OF splintering timbers.
Occupants of the two coaches
which remained on the rails immed-
lately bent their efforts to rescuing
the hundreds who were caught in the
tangled mass OF wreckage.
Word OF the disaster quickly reach
ed Clayton. Ala, three miles away
and relief trains bearing surgeons and
nurses were quickly dispatched from
Ozark and Eufaula, where most OF
the dead and injured were taken
later.
Many OF the HlCLlHiS were cared IO1
at Clayton, where the citizens turned
their residences into emergency hos
pitfalls. All the physicians within a
radius OF many miles hurried to the
scene and assisted In caring for the
injured. So large was the number OF
victims, however, that available space
at Clayton soon was exhausted and
many had to be placed on cots on
pOrches and in front yards.
Because Of the isolation OF the
place where the wreck occurred and
the confusion which necessarily pre-.
vailed. identification of the dead and
wounded was slow. No until Thurs
day night were the names of a ma
jority of those killed known with Ger
tainty.

REACH COMPROMISE IN
DEMANDS OF PLUMBERS

Refusal on the part of the steam
and sprinkler workers of Local No.
AIS, United American Steamfitters'
Union, to accept the sliding scale"
of wages offered by the Master Steam
filters Association has brought
about compromise between the two
by which the helpers receive an in
crease in wages of ten cents a day.
This includes the green" men, as well
as the experienced helpers.
Last September the local union and
the International Union came for
ward with a demand for an increase.
At that time the filters were receiv-
ing $40 day, and the helpers $2.40.
The former wanted S. a day and the
latter SO. From the outset the contest
has been over the question of the
helpers, as the demands of the filters
were soon met The masters offered
them sliding scale, by which the
apprentices should start at 50 a day,
and at the end of two years receive
the maximum wages.
After several times lowering their
demands, the International Union
finally agreed to this, but the local
union claimed that a clause in it's con-
stitution prevented the union accept
ing these terms.
Meanwhile, they had lowered their
demand to s2.65. and strike seemed
imminent. After several conferences,
however, the scale has at last been
fixed at So a day for filters and $3.50
a day for helpers.

CLEARING HOUSE SYSTEM
ADOPTED BY GOVERNMENT

& WARRINGTON. Feb. l. = The
: United States treasury today reyo-
Iutionized it's business system and
placed the ordinary fiscal trans
actions of the federal government on
q modern basis. The change, it is
,.declared, will prevent in large meas
ure the temporary tying up in the
vaults of the sub-treasuries of a
large amount of money.
Beginning today the daily govern
ment receipts from customs, internal
revenue and other sources will be
-placed with the national bank de-
pos.taries TO the credit of the treas
-urer of the United States. All checks
of government disbursing officers will
be drawn ON the treasurer and will be
payable at any sub-treasury or ma
tional bank depositary in any part
of the country.
A national bank depositary pay
ing one of these checks may imme-
diately reimburse Its specified gov
eminent account from daily receipts
of customs or internal revenue de-
posted with it and forward to the
nearest sub-treasury only the re-
!. nlainder of the receipts. This ex-
tends the clearing house principle to
the government business system.

City Employees Dismissed by
Board Entitled to Review,
McCarter Pleads.
NO NOTICE, AS CIVIL
SERVICE LAW REQUIRES
If Selected from One Party,
Says Chief Justice Gummere,
1t Would Be Significant.

Robert H. McCarter, representing
about 80 of the employees discharged
I by the Board of Street and Water
Commissioners at the reorganization
Of the board on January ! last, when
so men were displaced and their po-
sitions abolished. today obtained
writ Of certiorari from Chief Justice
William S Gummere allowing the
right to review the dismissal resolu-
ton of the board in the Supreme
Court.
City Attorney Herbert Boggs APP
reared for the Board of Works. but
4 did not oppose the granting of the
writ, having agreed with Mr.. Nc
(. Carter on a statement of facts that
will be argued before the higher
: court. In asking for the writ Mr..
McCarter explained that it was his
contention that all of the men dis
+. charged were protected by the civil
!, service act. most by the tenure of
Office act and some by the veteran
= soldier act.
Another contention of Mr. Me
Garter and the one on which he lad
most stress, was the fact that under
1.-The civil service law it was required
(. that notice be given men about to
< he dismissed so that they can have
a chance to be heard in protest. This
: was not done by the Board of Works.
s, "The underlying view of the civil
service act" said Mr. McCarter, lis
to prevent removal from position for
political reasons only.
: Chief Justice Gummere then wanted
Ito know how the men selected for dis
en1issal were chosen, and was Informed
by both Mr. Boggs and Mr.. McCarter
that they did not know. But" said
!, Mr.. .McCarter, "by some peculiar coin
4 cidence it seems that the men dropped
: were all members of the same politi-
zeal party"
To this the chief justice replied
& that the dismissals would only have
Significance in this respect II the men
were dismissed by selection and the
selections were shown to have been
F. entirely from one party. Mr.. Boggs
:. caused a laugh by interfering that
all of the men employed by the old
? Board of Works were members of
one party.
s The court then allowed the writ
giving the right to review the whole
resolution as passed by the board,
making the writ returnable within
: twenty days.

New Schedule Inangurated in
Passaic Division
Today.
MOVE WILL BE MADE
STATEWIDE ON MAY |
Quality Will Not Be Poorer as
Result of Re-.
duction.

Ninety-eent gas went into effect In
the Passaic division today.
The officials of Paterson and Pas
sale and other municipalities ex-
pressed themselves as much elated
over the realization of their victory.
BY virtue of the fight made beforethe
Board ofPublic Utility Commissioners
the consumers in that division will
derive the benefits OF the new rate
wide.
Acting on the recommendation of
the Public Utility Commissioners.
Thomas NJ McCarter. president of the
Public Service Corporation. announced
on January that the ninety-cent
rate would be Statewide on May l.
Change Meters.
Between 5000 and and 10000 pre-
payment meters In the Passaic divi-
sion were changed to meet the new
rate. Heretofore the rate in that di-
vision was $1.10 per thousand cubic
feet. Under. the new rate, however,
the gas company will not allow the
10 per cent discount on bills paid
within five days.
As in this division, a ninety-cent
fiat rate will be in force throughout
the State on May l.
The municipalities which will reap
the benefits of the new rate starting
today are: Acquackanonk, Garfield,
Hawthorne. Little Falls,
Lodi Borough. Nutley. Passaic, Pater-
son, Prospect Park, Saddle River
township and Totowa.
Edward r. Mercy, who represent
ed Paterson In the fight for gas rate
reduction, had the following to. say
In relation to the new rate:
Many Complaints.
I'VE hear many complaints from
people who think the result of the
new rate will be the supply of an
inferior quality of gas; that the
Public Service will be giving more
wind than gas and in this manner
make up for any loss from the new
rate rule. Let me say that this is
practically impossible.
1.-The Public Utility Commission
ers have fixed a standard quality OF
gas and If this standard is not fur
nished the gas company will be in
default Another reason why this
fear of poor gas is unfounded is that
the cost of making gas is trif1ing;
it is the delivery of gas which the
company finds expensive. Making
the gas costs them but twenty-five
cents a thousand cubic feet.
ut must also be borne in mind
concluded Mr.. Mercy, "that this
order has been fixed for one year
The corporation is not entitled tc
make more than certain percentage
of profit on the money invested and
IL it is shown they make as much
profit under the new rate as was the
case under the old rate, there will be
an investigation. So that fear of a
poorer quality of gas is absolutely
unfounded."
