BIG SHORTAGE
IN FIREWORKS
Committee In Charge of Last
Nights Display Summons
Contractor to Explain
FOUND IN CHECKING UP
Was Then Too Late to Get
Missing Pieces Mayor Makes
Statement.
FOUND IN CHECKING UP

In the opinion of the members
of the commItee in charge the fire
works display last night at the Bluff
was not as large as 1t should have
been for the money expended. In
view of this fact, the committee will
notify the firm who contracted to
supply the fireworks to account for
the alleged shortage. To that end
a meeting will be held In the mayors
office at city hall Monday night,
when a rigid investigation will be
made.
1t seems that Harry r. Wilson, J.
K. Bryan and Samuel Waterhouse,
the committee, learned of the short
age while checking up the goods.
But is was then too late to procure
added supplies. The man sent here
by the firm to shoot off the display
knew nothing about the contract and
could give no satisfactory explana-
ton.
A crowd of about $4,000 people as
sembled to witness the display and
everyone seemed pleased. 1t was
the general sentiment, however, that
the display did not last long enough
and many were disappointed.
Mayor Ferd Garretson today made
shared In by the fireworks commit
to the matter:
THE comment most frequently
heard at the Bluff last evening was
that The fireworks display was good
while 1t lasted, but it did not last
long enough This opinion was
sahared In by the fireworks commit
tee and myself. The pyrotechnist
worked rapidly, which Is one reason
why the display ended ~ quickly.
We believe, however, that more i'm
portant reason is that tho fireworks
company did not deliver the full
amount contracted for and the pub
lie can feel assured that this feature
Will be fully investigated before the
final settlement is made with the
contractor. The goods We're check

house, and each one reports a very
material shortage
I'VE are very sorry that there was
some disappointment in what was
intended to be the climax OF the cele-
bratton. The committee worked
faithfully, but when the shortage was
discovered 1t was too late to add to
the supply. The display should have
been somewhat more elaborate than
the one of 1912 as the appropriation
was increased fifty dollars and both
displays were given by the same con-

FITCH CASE TO
Be CONTINUED
South Amboy School Boards
Side is Heard.

A hearing on appeal concerning
the discharge of Russell M Fitch from
the position of supervising principal
of public schools in South Amboy
was Thursday night adjourned until
next Wednesday morning, after the
Board of Education of the City of
South Amboy had presented its side
of the case. Four members and the
clerk of the Board of Education and
three teachers were called by that
side. Thomas Brown opened the de-
fense with testimony of j. e. Crane,
former principal of the South
Amboy high school. The hearing,
which was held before Assistant State
Commissioner of Education ]. Brod-
nard Belts, in the high school audi
torium in this city, was adjourned
about 6 o'clock Thursday night. 1t
will be continued at 10 O'Clock We'd
nesday morning at the same place.
Nothing startling was sprung in
the review Of the boards side of the
case. Through counsel, Samuel
Schleimer, it endeayored to prove
that Professor Fitch was incompet-
ent and that for that reason the
schools of South Amboy had taken
a backward step the past few years.
AS told Thursday, Samuel Locker,
clerk of the Board of Education, was
the first witness called Dr. Il. E.
Haines, president of the board, who
followed him, did we'll under the
quizzing by Mr.. Schleimer, but hesi-
tated and seemed inclined to be
evasive under the questioning by
Thomas Brown, counsel for Mr..
Fitch. On cross examination DR..
Haines often gave the usual eyasive
answer 81 don't know" AlonZo
Grace, member OF the Board of
testified along lines sim
liar to those Of DR.. Haines. stating
that South Amboy schools had been
goin gdown the past two or three
years. Charles c. Mason, chairman
Of the teachers committee and Cy-
rus A. Davss, of the Board of Edu-
cation, testified in similar manner.
A mistake was evidently made when
evidence was attempted to show that
Prof. Fitch had erred, in permitting
the changing Of courses of study.
Commissioner Mason presented state
ments to show that courses had been
for at least one scholar.
Prof. Fitch had not permitted the
pupil in question to graduate as a.
result, 1t was shown by the testi-
nony, and q point was thus won for
he professor.
j. D. Dawson, principal Of school
10. 1, Miss Cecilia McGonigle, a

ish in the South Amboy high school,
concluded the complainants' side of
he case. They testified that Prof.

AT REASONABLE FIGURE

Realizing the extent of sentiment
against the operation of a marine
graveyard at the foot of Madison and
Brighton avenues, John H. Gregory,
head of the Gregory Wrecking &
Contracting Company, volunteers to
sell holdings of the concern at a rea-
sonable figure and remove from the

Has Interesting History

The damage by fire to the Bijou
theatre Thursday night may result in
the execution of plans under consid-
Grafton by the owners to erect mod
ern Playhouse on Its site at the north
westerly corner of New Brunswick
avenue and Jefferson street. They
had contemplated the erection of a
hippodrome on the property to re-
place the present from and sheet iron
structure. The fire, which was Of
unknown origin. completely gutted
the northerly section Of the building
incurring damage to the extent Of ap-
proximately $500. The stage,
dressing rooms, scenery and general
stage property were destroyed and
considerable damage was done to
other parts Of the building.
Firemen did effective work in
fighting the flames. When an alarm
was sounded from box 81 at Smith
and State streets at 7:55 o'clock
Thursday night, the stage and set
ting were enveloped il flames and
clouds of dark smoke were pouring
from the building. A few minutes
later six streams were being played
in the northerH end of the building.
A hole was cut in the roof and four
men directed a stream down on the
burning stage.
Because of the burning Of the
framework between walls OF CORFU
gated iron, the firefighters had diff
Guilty in completely eXtinguishing the
flames after they had them practical
ly under control. Shortly after 10
o'clock, some time after 1t was
thought the fire was out, flames
broke out again and Chief Engineer
William P. O'Hara summoned the

ton Hook and Ladder Company.
Soon after arriving on the scene
when the flames were raging most
