FREIGHT FIRE DESTROYED
A CAR AND CABOOSE
Early Yesterday Morning Near The
SeabOard Shops.

Fire at an early hour yesterday
morning destroyed freight car load
ed with Florida tomatoes, and a ca
gboose attached, in the lower yards O:
the Seaboard railway, near Glessner
street crossing, leading to the Agricu!-
tural college. The car and caboose
got away from the main freight yard
and going rapidly down the grade were
thrown off at the derailing switch at
Glessner street, fixed for that pur-
pose.
1t was supposed that the impact at
the derailing switch upset a stove in
the caboose and started the nre which
destroyed both cars and contents, en-
failing considerable loss in the way Ge
equipment and freight, especially the
car of tomatoes. The fire department
responded to the call, but the fire was
at a point difficult to reach quickly
and little assistance could be render
ed by the firemen.

graft history, covering period of thir-
ty years, was opened for District AT
tcrney Whitman by Rosie Hertz, g
wealthy and notorious keeper of dis
orderly resorts in this city. This wo7
man, sentenced last week to one year
Imprisonment for running a house for
immoral purposes, made a complete
confession.
She disappointed the System, ;"
which had hoped she would serve her
time without telling what she knew,
and has paved the way, it is said for
prosecution not only of several high
police officials, but for number of
politicians alleged to be allied with
the System"
Many subpoenas were issued as soon
as the woman completed her disclos-
ures. and Mr.. Whitman will be busy
during the next few days examining
witnesses who are expected to corroD-
crate the woman's story. Mrs. Hertz
and other witnesses will testify before
the grand jury According to the, dis
trict attorney their stories will be
supplemented by evidence in the form
of checks and account books which
the woman preserved. Mrs. Hertzs
business as the proprietor of string
of resorts conducted Systematically,
makes it possible now for documenta-
ry proof of the graft she has paid for
protection to be produced, it is de-
clared.
Among many names mentioned o4
the Hertz woman today was that of
Jack" Sullivan, king of the news
boys who awaits trial under the
same indictment for murder brought
against former Police Lieut.. Charles
Becker and the four gunner in the
Rosenthal case. To Sullivan, the wo,
man alleges she paid $4,000 in graft
in period covering several years. She
produced letter which she said was
written by Sullivan from tee Tombs
recently, warning her not "squeal."

so, is said to have confessed to graft
ing. He was taken before the grand
jury where he repeated the story he
told District Attorney Whitman Wrean

the police force he collected graft
money, Mr.. Whitman says Wren told
him, and for more than half this time
he exacted $4,000 monthly tribute in
one inspection district He mentioned
three former police inspectors who are
now captains and under suspension.
One of them, Mr.. Whitman says, is
