FIRE DAMAGES CAMDEN
CHEMICAL PLANTS
Spectacular Blaze Causes $685.
900 Loss-Officials Deny
War Orders

Two Camden chemical plants were
damaged last night by fires causing a
loss of $4,000, They are the laboratory
and factory OF the Mechling Brothers
Manufacturing Company and the storage
house of the Camden Lime Company.
The fires started with a slight explosion
at the Meching Brothers plant. at $50
o'clock. A sheet of flame soon enveloped
the building. which spread TO the lime
company's establishment. Immediately
adjacent. Officers of both firms deny
that they had war contracts and are con-
fident the blaze was the result of an
accident.
The fire was a picturesque one. The
chemical substances glistened in the
flames like amber. The smoke was so
dense that spectators were held at a
considerable distance By the police. AL
most the entire fire department of Cam
den was engaged in ighting the flames.

CITY CLERKS ARE EXPECTING
THE WORST, BUT HOPING FOR
BEST, WHEN REGIMES CHANGE
City Hall Now the Most Active Section of the
Whisper Belt, as Employees Speculate on
What Fate Holds for Them

gether and trying to figure out what viii
happen. Two conflicting impulses surge
in them, and the result is almost comIcal
The first instinct is the first law-self-
protection II causes the autocratic $500
a-year man to become ohsequious, studi-
ously careful of the feelings of Mr.. Clti-
zen II makes him walk with the motion
of one who treads on hen fruit. 1t makes
him strive always to please
The other instinct also is as old as the
human race. II Is the sourgrapes feel
ing; the fear, amounting in some cases
to conviction, that there is absolutely no
chance Of hanging on to the nice, soft job
after December 81, 1915, and ns long az
he can't have 1t he doesn't want IT,
OF course. there is the pathetic side TO
the story; the fear OF the middle aged and
old men clerks who looked up at old
Glory and hummcd over the lines OF the
"Star-spanEled Banner and voted like
free men who do not take orders from
political bosses. They are wondering
who will take the place Of the city and
give them the opportunity that is said TO
be every mans right-to earn living
The feeling of expecting the worst and
hoping for the best is nothing new to
city Hall. Some old timers have passed
through II and recovered time after time
nt regular four-year intervals But that
doesn't lessen the acuteness of the fever
once 1t takes hold again.

DOWNTOWN SANTA CLAUS
Including to-day, there nre only twelve

It would be pity to think that THIS
whole foreign imbroglio, n short word

Just to decide which nation shall provide
America with toys. Germany always hhd
such monopoly on this that when AN
American toyrnaker wants to make
success he puts his name on his toys III
German letters.
japan, which is as much at war with
Germany as several oceans and CONT
nents will permit, is making great play
to get the toy trade away from her onco

pasteboard.
But now comes a third competitor INTO
the field OF playthinGs. Ireland and her
playboys are turning out toys for Ame:-
lea at high rate of speed and several
shploads have arrived for distribution.
These toys must be made by the women
folk. for most of the men of Ireland are
on the Continent helping poor old Eng
land ont.
Even toys have tragic air In these
bad times many OF them are made by
wounded soldiers; many of them were
made by soldiers who are now dead.
There Is no question about 1t. George

negro detective in the city. and a mighty
good detective, but he Is an even better

There was another negro prince in
America about n century ago. the EN-
peror Christophe. BLACK Napoleon" Of
Haiti. who used to throw people off the
cliffs of that unhappy island and cut them
into pieces. But the modern prince of
that race is making up for the errors
of his predecessor.

Offers of Funds Regarded as Indef

Those who are endeavorins TO switch

ton. Camden, New York city and other
suburban places have already encoun-
tered obstacles, said Common Councilman
John II. Balzley. chairman Of Councils
New Year Committee. which has con-
vinced them that their plan is "ridicu-
lous."
Representatives of those associations
which will march with the shooters pa
rade onlcialiy Indorsed by Councils said
today that the offer OF prospective fund
OF $500 by residents of Wilmington as
an inducement to hold the parade in that
city was too indefinite. Announcement OF
this offer was made at a meeting OF the
so-cslled Federation of New Year Asso-
Citations last night. Those who are en-
deavoring to disorganiEe the parade here
could only promise that a ten-day CAM
paisn to raise the fund mentioned would
be started on Monday.
Representatives OF the federation say
that the oner was made providing 1000
mummers could be guaranteed In the
parade. II was pointed out today by the
numerous clubs opposed to deserving
Philadelphia that even though SiSD
fund were raised the fare and cost of din
ner from each hummer would have TO be
deducted, which would leave little or
nothing to divide among the shooters.
When the prospective Wilmington In
ducement IL compared with the actual
$500 fund already provided for by Coun-
ellis. the loyal shooters declare that 1t vs.
foolish to waste time over the matter.
Those who are directing the official
parade here contend that the disturbers
are actuatcd by commercial instincts and
are not bona fide mummers Members of
the federation say that the clubs should
receive the receipts of the official New
Year program. which should be distrib-
uted as prize money.

ellis who has directed the mummers'
pageant for many years. said the as

ing to disorganize the parade are too RI

j. Garrity, who says he represents the
federation. 800 that he never was a New

It was learned this afternoon that, al

attended the meeting of the federation
last night, more thnn three-fourths Of
these went to the meeting from mere
curiosity.
