The Night Session
The development of fire preventive
measures in New Jersey and how diff
ferent kinds of fire escapes had been
tested out until one was found which
had proved its value was outlined by
Col. Lewis T. Bryant, commissioner
of labor of New Jersey, last night.
Col. Bryant also mentioned the in
teresting fact that the fire loss in
Berlin last year was less than half Il
million dollars and referred to the
cost of fire departments in the United
States and Canada costing more than
the amount annually lost in fires.
The difficulty is that we do not start
our prevention at the right place. We
should begin with the buildings" said
he. Pictures of big fires were shown
and the reasons for loss of life set
forth. He strongly urged frequent fire
drills
r. H. Newberne, of the Pennsyl-
Vania railroads insurance department,
spoke on the valuable aid rendered in
accident prevention by statistics, going
into detail to show how casualties
among certain classes of railroad men
had been reduced by studying the
causes.

horse and buggy. Fries then drove
around the countryside and visited the
farmers and bought up all the apples
he could. The farmers received in
payment bad checks and orders to
bring the apples to Dillsburg on Tues
day, November II, where some one
would meet them and get the apples.
In all about 10000 bushels of apples
were bought.
This is the story as Mr.. Swartz told
it to the Telegraph over the phone:
Fries came to the livery stable and
hired horse and buggy from me.
Shortly after he left and for several
days he drove around to all the farm
ers near here and bought apples
from them. He paid for them with
checks which were found to be bad.
About 10000 bushels of apples were
bought and $4,000 worth of bad
checks were given for them.
The farmers were told to bring the
apples to Dillsburg yesterday and all
of them tiocked in but no sign of Fries
could be seen. He has left the place
with the horse and buggy and was last
seen headed for Harrisburg.
HE paid me $21 for the team, but
