If YOU Did NOT Believe

That there was possibility that
your dwelling or store would burn
some day you would not pay out good
money for Insurance, would you? The
carrying of Insurance is one evidence
of your forethought and wisdom, but
il is fact that no wise or honest man
wants his property burned, even
though it be insured. and it is also a
fact that hundreds of houses are burn
ed because the owners have no means
at hand for extinguishing fire when
discovered, and often have to depend
on neighbors, if there are any in reach,
or the fire department, and often the
dependence fails. Every building
should be equipped with one or more
Pyrene Extinguishers. 1t is the best
protection ever devised during "the vi
tai five minutes"-the first five after
the fire starts. 1t is sold for 1925 with
wall bracket. Mr.. Jas. Q. Wray, supt.
of the Yorkville Water and Light
Plants, has recently had some eXperi-
ence with a fire and a Pyrene Extin-
quisher. Ask him. l carry them in
stock. II your automobile carries a
Pyrene, the insurance rate will be ID
per cent less.

MORE GOSSIP AS
TO MAY0RAL JOBS

K. Erie Moody of-45 Walnut street,
is to be the secretary to Mayor-elect
Thomas l.. Raymond when the latter
assumes office on January !, is the
rumor going the rounds at the City
Hall. Mr.. Moody was at the office of
Mayor Haussling today and inquired
about the duties of secretary to the
chief executive of the city.
Mr.. Moody, when asked If he was
to be the secretary to Mr.. Raymond,
smiled and said: "It is too early 10
make predictions"
Mr.. Moody is bank clerk. He for
merly lived in the Eighth ward and
was in the brokerage business.
Mayor-elect Raymond was in con-
ference with his advisers at his home.
is East Kinney street, today. One OF
his clerks announced that Mr.. Ray
mond was busy and could not De
seen
Guesses as to the appointments the
mayor -elect will make are heard on
all sides. Much interest centres
around the next city counsel. Several
names have been heard in connection
with the appointment, among these
being Robert H. McCarter, Adrian
Rilxer and Alfred n. Dalrymple-
In other quarters the name or
Spaulding Frazer. who managed Mr.
Raymond's campaign, seems to be ac-
cepted as almost certainty IN the
matter of the city counsel appoint
ment. 1t is believed that in the event
of the mayor-elect not selecting Mr.
Frazer for the office of city counsel,
he will find another place for him In
the city government.
That the mayor-elect Will appoint
Nicholas LaVecchia as one of the
police court judges is another rumor
prevalent. Mr. I4aVecclfia is president
of the Playground Commission He
was an active worker in the interests
of Mr.. Raymond, and 1t is said in
f1uenced many italian votes the Ray
mond way.
Although Mr. Raymond promised
before election to appoint an Italian
a police court Judge, II is now pre-
dicted that there will be war IN
camp" If he does. Mr.. LaVecchia is
popular among his countrymen, but 1t
is said that there will be a split in
the party If he is made police court
judge.
In spite of the fact that Newark
will have a Republican mayor after
January /, 1t Is predicted that Sheriff
John F. Monahan will be chosen city
treasurer to succeed the present In
cumbent. Elmer Day. 1t Is rumored
that many of the aldermen are work
ing in behalf of Sheriff Monahan
while others favor the present city
treasurer.

FULL CREW LAW
REPUD|ATED BY
MISSOURI VOTERS
Bill Which Legislature Passed
and Governor Signed De-
cisively Rejected.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 6.-Missouri has
rejected deoisively the full crew law,
which was passed by the last Legis-
lature. signed by Governor Major.
and which went before the voters on
Tuesday for referendum, Whether or
not the majority viii be 100000, as
enthusiastic railroad men estimated
today, viii not be known for several
days. The clerks have thirty days In
which to return the complete vote.
and in the rural districts especially
tEey will take the full time But
from figures available the canserva-
tives aim the bill was defeated by
about $4,000.
Railroad officials see in the result
popular condemnation of the attacks
which have made railroad retrench-
ment necessary.
An Official of Missouri trunk line
summed up the causes OF the laws
defeat as follows:
MEN who hitherto have been able
to get work from the roads have
been unable to do SO and they voted
against the thing which meant fur
ther hardship.
"The decrease In sales of cofnmodi
ties to railroads influenced travelling
men, business men and manufac-
turers to work against the bill.
"The farmer believed the bill would
result only In a further indirect tax
on him and he wanted the sort of
service he has had in the past.
Railroad employees believed the
roads could stand no further operat-
ing expenses without wage cuts and
layoffs."
The direct result of the defeat OF
the bin came yesterday, when the
Frisco system PLACID all of its three
shops In Springfield, Mo-, on full time
and took the same action in It's shops
at Kansas City, Mo-. and Memphis,
Tenn.
In st. Louis the bill was beaten by
64517 against 1882. In Springfield
the vote was 1882 against to 991 for.
Kansas City was the only large
city in the State where the bill car
ried. There, however, the completion
of the new station and other local
causes had contributed to better labor
than in any other city
in the State.
"One of the best things about It,"
said e. d. Levy, general manager Of
the Frisco, tonight, lis that the size
of the majorities shows that the
people are against further embarrass-
ment of the railroads. The result,
as railroad men take it, gives prom
ise of better attitude of the public
toward the railroads when they un-
derstand conditions.
mo one can say that it was a VIC
tory won because of apathy. The
fight for this law was one OF the
hardest that has been made for legis-
lation in years"

GERMAN CRUISER
WAS DESTROYED
BY GERMAN MINE
Yorck Ran Into Powerful Float
ing Bomb in Own Field,
Says Berlin.
BY the Associated Press.

BERLIN, Nov. 6.--Only the scanti-
est authentic details OF the sinking OF
the German cruiser Yorck are avail
able here. The admiralty has received
from Wilhelmshaven little beyond the
announcement Of the time and place
of the accident and the number Of
men saved.
A fuller reporf, lt Is expected viii
probably be ayaila Dls Aoun. Il Is dei-
nitely announced. however. that the
sinking was due to a German mine
and not TO hostile attack. The ship,
which was under way, presumab
swung outside of the channel through
mine field and touched one Of the
powerful German mines, which made
short work of the dig cruiser
The conduct of the crew, in the mo-
ment of disaster, is described as eX-
emplary, and there is much regret
over the destruction of the cruiser
the heaviest individual loss as yet
sustained by the German navy.
The loss of the Yorck is counter
balanced, in the German opinion. by
the news of the daring raid of a Ger
man squadron into British home
waters to indulge In what is described
here as "a bit of rat hunting on its
o6Il dCCOuLl-
The report from the commander of
the squadron states that the Germans
suffered no loss or damage to men or
material and returned safely to their
base.
The retirement Of the German
squadron, it is stated here. may be
described not improperly, in the much
abused term, as a strategic retire
ment," designed to draw its pursuere
into difficulties. The names of the
German ships engaged will not be
published, and there is the same reti-
cence regarding the identity of the
submarine which sank the cruiser
Hermes.
In well-informed quarters the Brit
ish report of the sinking of a German
submarine by the destroyer Badger is
strongly questioned. So far as known.
no German submarines have been de-
stroyed. beyond those whose loss was
earlier reported.
The admiralty authorizes a positive
denial of the assumption that the
mines off the northwestern coast of
Ireland were laid by commerc' al
steamers under a neutral flag. The
mines, 1t is stated, were laid in a
manner fully conformable to the
usagee of war.

NEW YORK, Nov. 6.--Reports from

months is now being felt in many
parts of the East All lines appear to

That the business of this country Is

of the country will soon be booming.
