POLICEMEN BRAVE
IN FIRE RESCUES
Two Injured, with Others, in Try
ing to Save Persons Cut On
by Smoke or Flames.

Two fires caused by overheated stoves
carly Yesterday were attended by displays
of great bravery by policemen.
One blaze was in the basement OF the
home Of Cornelius L. Byrne, piano manu-
facturer, at No 302 West I'D street. Ar
thur Byrne, son. twenty years old, ana
Patrolman John O'Connell narrowly es-
capped death in rescuing Nancy Erickson,
one of the maids.
Arthur who was aroused by the smoke
carried out his brother Neil, nine years
old, and his sister Margaret, six, ana
then went back for his father ana
mother. Having seen them TO the street
through the dense smoke, the young man
rushed to the servants quarters and
O'Connell followed him.
The patrolman found the youth over
come lust outside Miss Erickson's door.
Though almost overcome himself, he car
ried out the unconscious girl and then
went back for Arthur. Firemen found
both the patrolman and the youth lying
unconscious on the floor.
Mrs. Byrne, who did not know that
Arthur had rescued her two younger
children, rushed frantlcally into the
smoke-flled house in an effort TO reach
them. and had to be carried out by the
firemen. Fire Captain Mustard, Of En-
CINE 49, who went into the basement,
was also overcome and had to be rescued
by his men.
The other fire was at No l46 Hamburg
avenue, Williamsburg, and in trying to
rescue Bartholdi Bacachie, who had HIM
self saved several of the other occu-
pants, Patrolman Schoebel, of the Ham
burg avenue station, was badly burned.
Bacachie, who is nineteen years old,
after getting the tenants out went back
and tried to fight the fire. His clothing
caught fire and he fell as he endeavored
to escape. Schoebel, who heard the
lads screams, rushed into the burning
house, but before he could reach Bacachie
his uniform was ablaze. The firemen
brought Schoebel out and afterward res
cued the boy. Bacachie was taken to the
German Hospital, seriously Ill.

continued Mr.. Moore.

Of the person higher up to hold members

the gentleman comes and demands that
we shall suspend the orderly transaction
of business in order to pass the bill,

bill. Fortunately, we have the high ex-
ample of the Speaker Of this House, who
declared on last Friday. when the Claims
Committee tried TO take the day, that
these appropriation bills must be consid-

MY judgment is that the farmer on
Raccoon Creek, furnishing food for the
people of the country. is more interested
in an appropriation that will enable him
TO get fertilizer transported for 40 cents

qualifications and uncertainties.
New England needs very much peace
and a chance for constructive work" the
statement given out by Mr.. Elliott reads
IF that condition could be obtained by an

such adjustment would be helpful TO New

tend It until application of the company.

for disposing Of the various properties TO
the best advantage possible. and with the
least disturbance to general business con-
ditions'
Mr.. Elliott said further that he and the
lawyers had urged upon the department
the great importance of ample time and
Of good trustees. and that the depart
ment had met their views as TO these
two important points.
The financial conditions confronting
the company are most difficult" he
added, but it is hoped that this adjust
ment with the government Increases the
probability of handling the matter sue
cessfuly, and this very vital question
will be taken in hand by the directors at
once.
The directors have felt that the dispo-
stion OF these properties was a transac-
ton OF such Importance that the stock
holders must pass upon it, to which the
department has assented.
a meeting will be called in the very
near future for that purpose. Prior 70
