Fire started In Rubbish.

MIR Rocbling said the fire started in
a pile " rubbish near which were 800
workmen and where there was no fire
or light.
The fire started about I o'clock in an
old building, once part of the old
Buckthorn Fence Company plant. which
was taken over many years ago by the
Rnehllnr company. The blaze spread
with remarkable rapidity to the In
suated wire department, n structure at
least 300 feet in length. At least 500
hands are employed in this department
and the night force was a. work when
the alarm was sounded.

ing At high speed and soon monaced the

OF Trenton's most important manufactur-
Ing concerns, and that OF the Home Rub

to preserve order and n number of per-
sons already have been executed in the

law. Business has been suspended and
the populacc is said to be exhibiting the

The chief anxiety Of the public is due
TO the uncertainty as to which faction
will succeed to the control Of affairs
there The fact that thousands of troops
are believed to have accompanied Gu

in their flight adds to the uneasiness, as

The insulated wire department had been
running night and day manufacturing a
special kind of wire for use in the French
army This wire was covered with an
asphatum insulation and Ia used mainly
for telephone and telegraph lines in the
feld
II is currently rumored that the com
pany had an order for 10000. 900 feet OF
wire. but the size and nature OF the order
has been carefully guarded by the officials
Of the company.
In one Of the destroyed buildings a
night and a day force were employed in
turning out trace and gun carriage chains
for one of the Allies, generally believed to
be the French. In fact work In this part
Of the factory was going at top speed
This order too was a large one. but the
heads of the plant were equally reticent
in discussing the nature OF the contract
Mr. Roebling said the plant would be
rebuilt in Trenton, but he was not pre-
pared to say that 1t would be rebuilt
on the site of to-night's hre.

Contrast in Murder Trials.

short time ago. atrocious murder was dis
covered IN London. On Thursday of last week
a jury, after twenty-five minutes deliberations
brought in verdict of guilty against the perpe-
traitor The judge promptly sentenced him to be
hanged July p. Thus the whole interval be-
tween the discovery OF the crime and the final
disposal of the wretch who committed it will be
only few weeks; for the probability of any inter
terence with the sentence by way Of appeal is al
most nil. The contrast between such expeditions
and decent dispatch of criminal business and what
we are familiar with in this country is painful We
say decent, because the meaningless and frv-
olous delays which frequently drag out the pro-
cesses of justice in America really as much of
an otense against decent standards of fitness as
against efficiency. If the cumbrousness and dla-
toriness of our ways were calculated to effect
more exact justice, the would be altogether
different; but nobody pretends that we can lay
claim to any such superiority. Our shiftless tole-
ration of all sorts of trifings with what ought to
be the stern and vigorous operation of the ma
chinery of justice means gross waste of time
money, and energy, with other result than that
of reducing to deplorable minimum the i'm

Judge Gary's Prediction.

Judge Ebert II. Gary, chairman of the board OF
directors Of the United States Steel CORPORATION
is not given to the making OF reckless statements:
he is noted rather for his conservatism and accu-
rate judgment. The prediction, or announcement
which he made on Thursday in San Francisco
must therefore be regarded as significant Judge
Gary said:
We are approaching the end of war that has
been and still is destroying life and property al
most beyond human calculation. The end NAV
not come Immediately. but it will come much
sooner than expected by many including some OF
those who are most actively participating =
There is obtainable proof that all countries in
Nolved deeply regret that the was ever started
They are nearing exhaustion. They are sick at
heart We shall at distant day see peace
secured
Thoroughly informed he is of events trans
pirlng in this country and in Europe and with
a peculiar gift OF Interpretation of them, Judge
Gary spoke his conviction, it nothing more:
though it is not impossible that he NAV be in
possession of information that would add even
greater weight to his words were he in a posi-
ton to divulgc it. At all events his is the most
noteworthy prediction since the war began, and
the civilized world will devoutly hope that he is
right
