When House Is Shaken
by Report.

Two women threatened with pneu-
monia had to be assisted from the
home Of Policeman James Flannery,
100 Clinton street north East Orange,
yesterday afternoon. when an expio-
sion in the cellar startled two fam
lies and the neigLborhood, as smoke
came from the cellar. Charles Roboni.
a laborer was badly burned the face
and body and had to be sent to the
Memorial Hospital
Joe Flannery. the well-known pro-
fessional baseball-player, son Of
Policeman Flannery. was writing a
letter when the explosion came. He
rushed toward the cellar and was
confronted with cloud of smoke and
he was driven back. Then came Ro-
boni from the cellar and he was I'M
able to explain just what happened.
Mrs. Flannery, who has been under
the care of DIR. George c. Beckett for
several days, threatened with pneu-
monia, was wrapped in blankets by
her son and carried outside the house
and placed on lounge. Then Joe,
who had been alone in the house ex-
cept for the women and the laborer.
ran upstairs to where Mrs. James

WANT EXPERT TO
FIND WATER WASTE
Council Committee Believes
That Is Only Solution
of Problem.

Abiding by a suggestion of Council
man .Stetson, the water committee of
the Orange Common Council last
night voted to recommend to the en-
tire body the employment of an en-
gineer or a firm of engineers TO ex-
anime Campbelps Pond, from where
the city obtains its water supply, as
the only means of solving the ques
ton of what is to be done to prevent
the great waste of water at the
plant. Opposition to the recon-
mendation developed, but Council
man Stetson convinced his colleagues
that immediate action is required and
that the services of experts must be
obtained until it is determined what
must be done. President F'ineran, of
the Common Council, who is a men,
Der of the committee, voiced the be-
lief that enough money has already
been expended on expert advice re-
garding the situation.
II cannot see where it is necessary
to hire more experts" said Mr.. Fin
eran. 1.-THE situation is that we have
not got a proper water supply and I
don't believe these men can make a
different report"
ut is for the purpose of ascertain-
ing why we have not got proper
supply that I am advocating employ
ing the experts, returned Mr.. Stet-
son.
Other members of the committee
said they were satisfied that If the
reason for the waste is learned the
men in the eity's employ can do the
remainder of the work. Councilman
Quinn, in expressing his view, said
he believed that the pollution of the
stream was a more serious problem
than an overflow, but his colleagues
differed with him on the grounds
that the source of the pollution is
traceable, whereas the waste was
not.
Mr.. Stetson's suggestion was con-
tanned in report which also included
the adoption by the council of a set
of rules governing the reduction in
water bills, which caused so much
discussion at the last meeting
President Fineran said that the
recommendations should be made
separately as the rules would prob
ably be adopted, but the suggestion
to have an expert examine the water
supply might be rejected which would
mean that both suggestions would
be turned down. Each report will be
sent to the council for approval or
rejection.
Regarding the request of citizens
for reduction in their water bills
hereafter the committee decided that
1t will be necessary to petition the
council for the grant in which 1t must
be specified why the party believes he
is entitled to a reduction and the
amount of his bills for the past two
years. When this is done the bill
will be given to the water superin-
tendent, who will inspect the meter
in the home from which the applica-
ton is-received and then recommend
TO the warer committee what ought
to be done.

SAYS ORANGE WATER
PAYROLL Is TOO LARGE

The statement of Councilman Stet-
son, of Orange, last night at meet
ing of the water committee of the
Common Council that the pay
of the water department was entirely
too large and that the number Of en-
ployees should be reduced, precipi-
tated no end of discussion. Council
man Quinn took exception to Mr..
Stetson's statement and asserted that
there was not single employee of
the department who does not earn
his salary. The matter was finally
left to Superintendent Travis for in
vestigation and a report from the
latter will be submitted at the next
meeting.
Mr.. Stetson advocated the employ
ment of an assistant TO Mr.. Travis,
stating that more than one man
should be familiar with the city's
water plant. A suggestion to have
City Engineer Crane appointed head
of the department met with approval,
but no definite action was taken in
the matter.

HIM PLY WHIP ON MULE

When a mule attached to a mineral
water delivery wagon owned by the
Haussling firm IN Newark did not
execute a move satisfactory to the
driver, Albert StehIe. of 40 Brook
side avenue, IrviBgton, yesterday aft
ernoon. he used the whip on the right
ear of the mule. Recorder Mott ap-
peared and he told Stehle not to be
too harsh to the animal
The driver was not acquainted with
Recorder Mott, or the fact that he
is quite severe TO drivers who use
the whip too strenuously in the city,
and his answers to the recorder are
said to have been quite out of place.
He told him, it is alleged, TO do
things not expected of a magistrate
or, indeed, other men.
Stehle was told to get down, and
Patrolman shannon was summoned
He took the driver to police head
quarters and after he had been
slated he was paroled for a hearing
today Steh1e almost had shock
when he saw Recorder Mott take his
seat on the bench
