LONDON FEARS ZEPPELIN RAID;
GERMANS CAPTURE VARONNES;
CRUCIAL BATTLE NEAR MONS
DR.. SILK CLAIMS
ENGLAND SENDS
Us FALSE NE VS.

The English government is so BIZ
ased, according to DR.. Charles |.
Silk, who with Mrs. Silk arrived
from Europe on the Baltic Wednes-
day, that travellers are searched on
landing in that country, and all Ger
man newspapers and books issued
by the government, are contiscated.
When DR.. and Mrs. Silk arrived at
Falkston from Rotterdam, on re
turning from Hungary, their baggage
was searched by British officers, and
not a scrap of German literature left
among their effects. Three volumes
of the white Book" issued by the
German government and setting
forth the full correspondence be
tween the different monarch, just
prior to the declarations of war, were
taken from the valises of the physi-
clan as were several German news
papers. DR.. Silk declares that the
American mind has been prejudiced
against Germany and Austria-Hun
gary, and brands the stories of fear
full atrocities committed by those ma
tions without provoCation, which
have reached the American newspa-
pers, as false.
DR.. Silk said that he was surpris-
ed and grieved to see some American
papers SO much against the Germans
without knowledge OF the real facts,
and after having learned but one
side. 'If you are only allowed to
have English literature, how can you
know of the other side?" he asked.
He believes that the English are do
ing everything possible to poison the
American mind with a hatred against
Germany and Austria.
DR.. and Mrs. Silk left here July 4,
intending to stay only two months
abroad, but were delayed nearly
three weeks in the war. They were
in Faro, the native city of DR.. Silk,
which is located near Kassa, Hun
gary, when war was declared on Ser
via. They were at that small town,
where lives the physicians mother
and grandmother when two procla-
nations were issued, one calling on
all those that had served in the army
between the ages of twenty-one and
forty-two and another calling on ev-
cry man between those ages whether
he had served or not. The physician
recalled pathetic scenes in seeing
husbands and sons leaving their fam
lilies. More than one woman he saw
follow a brother, a husband, son or
sweetheart to the station to bid
him probably the last goodbye before
he was modified with the other
troops.

COMMITTED FOR
RELIEF FORMED

Prominent German, Austrian and
Hungarian Americans of this city
and vicinity met last night in MassO-
pust hall and formed an organization
which will be known as the German
Austrian-Hungarian Relief Commit
tee. Officers were elected and a
committee appointed to formulate
plans for raising funds to aid the
manned, the widows and orphans in
Germany and the united kingdoms of
Austria Hungary, following the raw
ages of the war. The fund was start
ed last night with a collection made
by passing a hat. 1t amounted to
$50.
Among the speakers at the meet
ing were Justus Kaletsch, of 313
Watson avenue; John Pfeiffer, of
Maurer; William Zeyen, of Sewaren;
Rev. Francis Gross, Frank Magyar
and others.
The speakers dwelt on the neces-
sity of taking care of those who will
be made orphans and widows by the
war, and those who will be manned
for life during the bitter struggle,
and stated that Perth Amboy should
come to the aid OF the faith erlands in
this dire need, as other cities Of the
state have done, in collecting money
to forward to the two kingdoms.
There were about sixty present,
and it was decided to hold another
meeting next Wednesday night at
the same place. 1t was also decided
to interest all societies in Perth Am
boy and vicinity composed of Ger
man, Austrian or Hungarian strains,
and solicit contributions from them.
Though money cannot be forwarded
to the two countries at this time, it
was pointed out that the real need
would be when the war clouds had
cleared away and left in their wake
the hordes of wounded, manned, the
widows and orphans. The money
will be collected ready to send to the
two fatherlands as soon as 1t can be
transferred with safety.
The following were elected as Of
fcers: Justus Kaletsch, president;
Rev. Francis Gross, vice president;
John Pfeiffer, treasurer; Philip
Becker, secretary; Michael SKINNY,
financial secretary. They with the
following form the committee, which
will make plans for raising the relief
fund and report at the next meet
ing: William Zeyen, of Sewaren;
Fred Schultz, of Sewaren; Andrew
Massopust, Frank Pfeil, Frank Mag
var and Michael Stumpf, OF Perth
Amboy.

Quackenbosss son, Alex, as his dis
bursting agent. The act caused a
surprise in political circles here and
varied kinds of reports were set
afioat.
1t was reported in Perth Ambov this
morning that Mr.. QuackenbOss would
decline all Progressive support, having
arranged to run exclusively as an Gin
dependent Democrat" An effort was
made to locate Mr.. Quackenboss, or Pro
gressive leaders in New Brunswick, but
without avail. This was taken as a
movement to attempt the defeat Of
County Clerk Bernard M. Cannon, of
Perth Amboy, who is seeking reelection
on the Democratic ticket. 1t has boen
generally known here and in Perth Am
boy during the past several months that
certain influences among Democrats
of this city would be eXerted in
fall of Mr.. Cannon. The action of Mr.
Quackenboss in filing a new petition to-
day, coupled with the report that he
will decline Progressive support, bears
significance, especially at this time.
Reports concerning Mr.. Quackenboss s
activity in the alleged scheme to down
Mr.. Cannon, come from authentic
sources. Efforts to confirm them
through those directly concerned proved
futile, Each time an attempt was made
to reach Mr. Quaekenboss, it was stated
AT his office that he was out. The same

MUR|SH FREED;
KANYk HELD FOR
MANSLAUCHTER

Arthur Murish was this morning
discharged from the lookup, and ex-
onerated from all blame by the pO-
lice in the Draining of John Barkus
Wednesday, Thomas Kamyk, who
assisted Murish in collecting dogs,
was held without bail on a charge of
manslaughter by Recorder Pickers-
gill, and taken to the county Jail by
City Marshal Desmond. However,
Murish Is no longer dog catcher of
the city, he having been officially
discharged by Mayor Garretson.
The dismissal of the dog i'm
FOUNDER was not made following
the fight in which Barkus received
injuries from which he died, but be-
cause of numerous complaints re
ceived by the mayor the day before
and the morning on which the af-
fair occurred. Complaints were re-
ceived thick and fast, and the mayor
went to Chief of Police Burke early
Wednesday afternoon, to inform him
of the dismissal of the poundmaster
and have the chief secure the Off
GERS badge and keys. To the may
ors surprise he found that the dog
catcher was in the lookup, being
held then as a material witness, fol-
lowing the clubbing affair.
Some of the complaints which lead to
the decision of the mayor to discharge
Murish were received from Theodore
Union Telegraph Company; Jacob
Bran, DIR. William H. Mccormick, Jr.,
John Ellie, of East avenue and Rev.
Joseph Szuchy, pastor of Holy Trinity
Roman Catholic church.
Rev Szuchy complained that Murish
had tried to lasso a dog in his yard,
and had called him vile names. Dr.
Mccormick and Mr.. Spawn reported
that Murish had taken pet dogs, which
only momentarily had escaped from the
control of the owners. Mr.. Ellie re-
ported indecent language used by Muir
ish. The complaints came so thick and
fast Wednesday morning that the mayor
made up his mind to dismiss the dog
impounder.
AS Thomas Kamyk, who pleaded not
guilty to manslaughter and waived
hearing this morning, was being taken
to Jail this morning, he declared that
he used the club that is said to have
Drained BarlIus in self defense. He said
that the trouble was caused by little
dog. which Murish and he had captured.
Six men he declared tried to rescue the
animal, and as Murish and he were
driving off in the wagon, the crowd was
increased to thirty, and that they stop
ped the horse and pulled him from the
vehicle. He declares he grabbed the
big stick, as told yesterday in the
NEWS, and struck right and left, as
hard as he could with his one arm. He
saw a man fall, and the crowd swayed
back long enough for Murish and he to
get away. He says Mursh did not
strike Barkus as he knew, as he lost
track of him in the melee. He says he
did not know who he had hit in fighting
the crowd. According to the investiga
tion of Detectives Long and Huff Muir
isb did not strike Barkus, but was en-
gagged in the fight with others who at
tackled the two.
Kamyk was not officially employed by
the city, but employed and paid by
Murish, who was the official dog catcher
and could not in any sense be consid-
cred an empIoye of the city. He lost
an arm about three years ago, following
its being mangIed at Metuchen by
freight train.

Were to Put Pump in Operation
After Two 1-ACre Filter Ba-
sins Had Been Completed,
but Plan is Now Changed.
100000 MORE GALLONS
Water Will be Taken From
Deep Stratas of Watershed
Where There is an UnIimit-
ed Supply, Board States.

To save the city from a water
famine, the water department is
rushing the installation of the g.
100000 gallon artesian well pump
at the Runyon water works. 1t had
been planned to put the pump in op-
GRAFTON after the two one-acre filter
basins had been completed and an
aerating plant erected. However, the
exigency caused by the long drought,
has caused the department to hasten
work in getting the pump in opera
tion, without the entire completion
of the aerating system. Superinten-
dent Thomas Grieve, who is thus
meeting the emergency created by
the long dry siege, stated this morn
ing that he hopes to have the arte-
sian well pump going tomorrow, If
rains do not revive the supply of the
surface wells at Runyon, from which
the present supply of water is taken.
Though there was a little rain
last night, it amounted to practi-
cally nothing in replenishing the flow
of the surface wells, which is proba-
bly, lower than ever in the history
Of the water department.
On starting the artesian we'll,
which will be done as soon as posi-
BILE, If the drought continues, water
will be taken from the deep stratas
of the watershed where in the bow
els of the earth there is an unlim-
tied supply.
This will relieve all fear of a
water famine, even If there are no
rains for still longer period. One
of the filter basins is completed
through which the artesian we'll
water will percolate and by which
system the iron will be removed BY
this expediency the supply of water
in the mains can be increased IL. me-
diately ON the operation of the arte-
sian well pump by several million
gallons,
The fiat taste of the water sin ce
the drought became acute has been
noticed and commented on generally
throughout the city. When Super
intendent Grieve was asked the cause
of the peculiar taste he said that he
did not know the cause, unless it
were the fact that the wells supply
had reached such low limit. But, be
stated, this, it would seem, would
make the water purer because of its
being drawn from nearer the heart
of the springs.

ZEPPELIN RAID
ALONG COAST;
MENACE OSTEND

Ostend, Sept. 25:-Last nights
raid over this city by Zeppelin,
which dropped three bombs, one eN-
ploding and demolishing one of the
biggest fish depots and killing
watchdog, is believed to be the fore-
runner of a series of Zeppelin raids
along the coast. 1t is also feared
that the Germans are trying OUT
their great airships In anticipation
of a raid across the channel on
English territory. 1t is well known
that Count Zeppelin has volunteered
to lead a feet of these vessels over
the channel and acI oss the city Of
London. With the coming OF the
foggy autumn season the danger
from this cause is certain to be
acute and the British are already
