LITTLE BLAZES ABOUT BARRE.
Cause Some Wonder and Little Work
for Firemen.

Folks who saw lurid glare in the
north heavens late Friday night labored
/ Tor time under the misapprehension
| that a serious fire had broken ont some
where on the Montpelier road Most of
| those who noticed the reflection took
| pains to undeceive themselves, but for
the benefit of the few who did not both
er to call up fire headquarters, it NAV
be explained that the reflection was
caused by the burning of box car at
the scene of the G. v. wreck near
Dodge's bridge In order to open traffic
on the branch as soon as possible, the
Iwrecking crew decided to burn large
box car. The work Of removing the
debris began Immediately after the de-
railment Friday afternoon and by Sat
urday morning G. V. trains had been
transferred from the NJ. & W. line TO
the trail they usually take in reaching
this city.
Fire headquarters did have a call Fri.
day night, when someone noticed pile
of chips burning at the north end OF the
South Main street bridge. 1t was
around l0:l5 o'clock when the station
got a telephone call. Some of the regu-
lars went TO the scene in the auto truck
and extinguished the Blaze with chemi-
calls and water from the river near by.
The fire is believed to have been started
by a spark from the quarry train re-
turning to the hills at $3.50 o'clock.
There wasn't any damage.
Soon after & o'clock Saturday night,
the fire truck was sent to J. B. Sam
guinetti's big tenement house at 39s
North Main street. Smoke had spread
through every room in the building, but
the fremen were quick to locate the
blaze. A pile of rags near the kitchen
stove in one OF the ground floor tene-
ments was responsible for the outbreak.
and single stream of the chemical
quenohed it all. The loss is trivial
matter

WILSON DEFENDS
THE TARIFF LAW
Does Not Consider 1t Responsible for
Depression, Nor Does He Consider
the Depression So Bad in
u. S. as Elsewhere.

Washington, D. c., June President
Wilson to-day again expressed his con-
viction that any present unsatisfactory
condition in business was not general
but less felt in the United States than
in any other part of the world. He re-
iterated this view at his first conference
with the Washington correspondents
since the Mexican situation became
acute. Questions on the subject of Mex
leo or on mediation We're barred.
President Wilson believes that pros
perity would come with jump if the
manufacturers believed it was coming.
He does not believe that the tariff has
anything to do with the depression.

French Cabinet Decided To-
day to Tender Resig-
nations
OUT OF SYMPATHY
WITH FRENCH PEOPLE
Changes in the Chamber of
Deputies Make Control
Very Uncertain

Paris. June 1.-The French cabinet un'
der Premier CASTOR Doumergue has decid-
ed to resign. The resolution was taken at
meeting of the cabinet to-day, and the
cabinet will meet tomorrow to draft a
statement explaining the reasons for re-
tirement from office.
The chief factor bringing about the
resignation is understood to be the un-
certainty of being able to control ma
jority in the Chamber of Deputies, where
changes were brought about in the re-
cent general elections. Differences also
have arisen concerning the financial
measures and there are divergenees re.
garding the question of three years mil
itary service.

Arson Theory Not Held by Supt, Jones.
In Williamstown to-day there Wee'
rumors that an incendiary had be
work. According to the testimon. !. eys
some, man was seen coming out OF
shed short time before the fire broke
out. To strengthen this theory, there
are those who say they detected strong
odors OF gasolene as they neared the
building when the alarm was first sound
ed. Others still, and they seem to be in
the majority, adhere to the theory that
defective insulation started the fire. 1t
Is pointed out that the blaze had its
origin in the compressor room, where
connections are effected with the trans
former. The wiring had lately been re-
paired ond inspected.
When interviewed this forenoon Su-
perintendent Jones gave a careful ac-
count OF the fire He was iii church
when the electric lights began to flicker.
He believes the flicker was caused by a
detection in the wiring at the plant.
Soon afterwards was heard the cry of
fire and everybody rushed out of doors
to see the shed ablaze. Mr. Jones pre-
ferred not to be quoted when asked as
to the company's plans for the future.
He did not give any credenee to the
arson theory of the fires origin.
