After a successful season, the pub
lie market closed at Long Branch. The
commission men and merchants have
five days to vacate the premises. The
public market was opened last June
as an experiment. While the city
authorized the establishment Of a
market by referendum vote, it was
decided to start modestly and lease
a piece of land for the first year. The
number of farmers patronizing the
market ranged between seventy and
100, and the weekly sales were as
high as $4,000.

CORRESPONDENT TELLS OF
THE BURNING OF TERMONDE
BY T. M. KETTLE.
international News Service.

Termonde.-Here is the story of the
wrecking of Termonde, told by a
dozen different inhabitants and con-
firmed from dozens Of other reliable
sources.
Following the German entry into
the city the commander demanded a
levy Of 10000 0 francs. The money
was n0t in the public treasury, and
the burgomaster was not there to save
his town as Braun saved Client.
General Sommerfeld had a chair
brought from the inn into the center
Of the grand palace. He sat down
on it, crossed his legs and said:
' ut is our duty to burn this town."
The Inhabitants were allowed two
hours to clear out and then the SOL
diers went to work.
Use Portable caissons.
Their apparatus consisted of a
small portable pressure caisson filled
with benzine and fitted with a spray.
Other witnesses said that there also
were great caissons on wheels. With
this they sprinkled the floors and
ground stories of the houses and set
fire to the buildings. Others used a
sort Of phosphorus paste with which
they smeared the object to be de-
stroyed. They completed their work
by finging hand grenades and pre-
pared fuses into the infant flames.
Remembering Louvain, General
Sommerfeld had evidently given d.
rections that the public and monu-
mental buildings were to be spared.
Thus the museum and the city hall
both remain standing, but right be-
tween them his petroleurs destroyed
q hotel.
