CRUISER WASHINGTON
STARTS FOR THE GULF
Will Probably Overtake the
New York, Which She Is to
Join at Vera Cruz.

Quietly and unostenta tiously the first
class armored cruiser Washington, Capt
Edwin Eberle commanding. slipped out
of the New York Navy Yard yesterday
morning and sped south to join Admiral
Winslow and the flying squadron in Next
can waters.
A large crowd was at tho dock to wit
ness the departure at IL o'clock. and there
we're many sad hearts and tear stained
faces among those who said good-by The
Washington was on duty In the yard as
receiving ship for more than year and
her men had chance to become unusually
well acquainted. Some OF them were mar
ried here and to many Of her crew tho
departure was virtual breaking Of home
ties
The Washington is under orders to Join
the flagship New York in Vera Cruz as
soon as possible. She Is capable OF a
speed OF % knots an hour and tho ex-
pectation is that she will overtake the
New York. which is loafing along at about
IL knots an hour.
The cruiser departed without a full
crew. She carries s66 men ordinarily,
but now has only 500. The rest will be
taken on at Hampton Roads and Port
Royal. 8. c.
Rush Work ON Gunboats.
The gunboats Isla de Luzon. Marietta

how soon the three could put to sea and
the result will be a still greater accolera-
ton of the work on them.

pected to get out yesterday morning, but

A fire that ruined thousands % dollars

with evening clothed men and women in
automobiles destroyed last night the white
stone residence Of Edward Farmer at .
West Fifty-sixth street, three doors from

Mr.. Farmer who Ia an importer OF
Chinese porcelains and other art works
from the Far East. had gone from the
house in a taxicab, at 10 40 o'clock. about
twenty minutes before the flames were
discovered and had entered Wallick's
restaurant TO join his wife and a dancing
party. but the taxi driver. upon returning
uptown. saw the fire. He returned to
broadway and took the couple home
When Mr.. and Mrs. Farmer raced back

that there was little hope of saving the

SUPREME COURT SETS ASIDE
CONVICTION OF BURNS

The conviction of Calvin Burns be-
fore Magistrate Jagmetty in Allan
tic City for riding on trolley car of
the Shore Fast line without paying
his fare, is set aside by the Supreme
Court in a decision handed down
Tuesday. The opinion is by Justice
Swayze.
Burns was convicted under the act
of 1911, prohibiting trespassing upon
railroad trains or railroad property.
The defendant boarded a crowded
trolley car at Pleasantville and re-
fused to pay his fare unless he was
given a seat. No seat could be pro-
vided. He refused to leave the car,
and was arrested in Atlantic City.
His conviction followed.
Justice Swayze, in his opinion, says
in part:
'1n proceedings under the Act of
1911 it is necessary to prove tres
pass contrary to the rules of the rail
road corporation. On intention to
ride without paying fare. Surely the
Legislature did not mean to enact that
the millions who travel on cars some
times for considerable distances, with
out any expectation of paying fare
until it is demanded, or those who
travel free by right, should be ad-
judged disorderly persons. Such q
construction would be absurd"

ACCIDENT PROVES
FATAL TO BOY.

The funeral of Winfield Frease, the
9 year old Absecon boy who died in
the Atlantic City hospital on Sunday
from injuries from being struck by an
automobile on Memorial Day, took
place from the residence of his par
ents on Wednesday afternoon. The
boy was a brother of Mrs. Earl Fair
brothers, formerly of Pleasantville.
Mr.. and Mrs. Fairbrothers had made
all preparations to participate in the
wedding festivities of his aunt, Miss
Lavinia T. Risley, which occurred on
Wednesday. But Providence ordained
otherwise, and instead of the joyous
festivities planned, Mrs. Fairbrothers
followed her little brother to his last
resting place.
The accident was unavoidable, and
no inquest was held. The boy, with
another, was riding on the back of a
wagon and jumped in front of an au-
tomobile owned by DIR. Ordman, of
New York. DIR. Ordman. with great
presence of mind, swerved his ma
chine from the road into field, just
missing five pedestrians, but striking
Winfield Frease with full force The
automobile rushed with the injured
boy to the office of DIR. C. C. Allen,
who ordered him to the hospital,
where his skull was found to be frac-
tured and some internal injuries.
Rev. Thomas J. Cross, who was on
his way to address a Memorial Day
assemblage in Port Republic, was
passing at the time of the accident,
and bore the sad news to the stricken
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. David Frease.
