FIRE CHIEFS MAY Be
RESTORED TO RANK
1t Is Said that Commiss ioners
Are Not Disposed to
Other Action.

The five battalion fire chiefs, who
of captain and then ordered REIN
stated by the State Civil Service Com
mission, will have little trouble, If
any, it was said today, in getting
back their positions. 1t is thought
likely the fire board will vote to raise
them to their former rank and salary
when they meet next Wednesday.
Neither City Counsel Spaulding
Frazer nor Gilbert E. Crogan, presi-
dent of the fire board, however, was
prepared today to say what the atti-
tude of administration would be, Mr..
Frazer saying the matter was purely
up to the fire commissioners. Mr..
Crogan said the board had not re-
ceived the official copy of the opinion
and therefore had decided on no
course as yet
The fire chiefs reduced in rank were
Thomas s. Reilly, Charles c. Storch,
James Fagan, jr., Michael j. Durkin
and Cornelius Smith. They were rep
resented In their fight for the reten-
tion of the rank by Frank Il. Brad
ner.
The battalion chiefs were not, as
enormously stated, promoted during
the eleventh hour" of the old ad.
ministration. They were promoted on
July /, 1914, months before any living
Newarker had the slightest thought
or suspicion that there would be a
change in administration. This is
fact and those who speak of the pro-
motions of the men who led the civil
service list are well aware Of that
fact.

MAYOR TO TALK
NIGHT OPENING
. WITH MERCHANTS
Conference for City Hall This
Observation-Disclosures Pos
itiveIy Opposed.

Mayor Thomas T.. Raymond will
hold a conference in his office at the
City Hall this afternoon with repre-
sentatives of the leading department
stores and other concerns for the
purpose of finding out the majority
sentiment in regard to reopening of
stores on Saturday nights. The
mayor called the meeting at the re-
quest of a delegation of Market street
merchants.
A meeting Of officers and Depart
ment heads of L. Bamberger & Co.
was held yesterday afternoon at
which the mayors invitation was dis
cussed Felix Fuld, a member of the
firm. reiterated that the Bemberger
store would not be kept open Satur-
day nights no matter what course
other merchants took. 1t was decided
that Mr.. Fuld should attend the
meeting at the City Hall this after
noon, as a courtesy due the mayor,
but that he will in no way consider
the reopening of the L. Bamberger
e Co. store.
1--WE have said right along that we
will not keep our store open late
Saturday night" said Mr.. Fuld to-
day, and we have not changed our
policy. We think more of the well
fare of our 1000 employees than we
do of the little business which might
result from keeping open. Many of
our customers have sent us letters
protesting against the scheme of re-
opening the stores on Saturday night.
There is little demand for keeping
stores open late and less to gain by

SINKS BRITISH
BATTLESHIP
London Admits Destroyer
TOrpedOed Goliath in
DardanelIeS.
500 MEMBERS OF CREW
BELIEVED TO BE LOST

and Transport.
500 MEMBERS OF CREW
BELIEVED TO BE LOST

LONDON, May y, p. m.-The
British battleship Goliath has been
torpedoed in the Dardanelles. 1t is
believed 500 lives have been lost.
Announcement of the loss of the
Goliath was made in the House of
Commons this afternoon by Winston
Churchill, first lord of the admiralty.
While no definite information ap-
number of lives lost, Mr.. Churchill
said he feared it would reach 500.
Mr.. Churchill also announced that
the British submarine Ella had pen
etrated through the Dardanelles and
into the sea of Marmora, sinking two
Turkish gunboats and Turkish
transport,
Twenty officers and 100 men of the
Goliath's crew were saved.
Mr.. Churchill, in announcing the
loss of the Goliath, said;
1.-THE Goliath was torpedoed last
night in a torpedo attack by destroy
ers while protecting the French flank
Just inside the straits.
Twenty officers and $50 men were
saved, which, l fear, means that over
500 were lost.
THE admiral commanding at the
Dardanelles also telegraphs that the
submarine Ella, which, with so much
daring, penetrated to the sea of
Marmora, has reported that she sank
two Turkish gunboats and a large
Turkish transport"
The Goliath was one of the older
British battleships of the pre- dread
nought type. She was built in 1895,
Her complement was $50 men,
The Goliath was 400 feet long on
the water line and seventy four feet
beam. Her displacement was II, $50
tons She was armed with four 12-
inch and twelve 6-inch guns; twelve
12-pounders, six S-pounders and two
machine guns. She had four torpedo
tubes
The Goliath is the third British bat
tlship whose loss in the attack on
the Dardanelles has been announced
by the British government. Loss of
the Irresistible and Ocean, together
with the French battleship Bouvet.
was announced on March 10. All
three ships struck mines during
general assault on the Dardanelles
forts on March is.
On April a wireless dispatch from
Berlin said information had been
received there that the British bat
tleship Lord Nelson had stranded in
side the straits and had been de-
stroyed by the fire of Turkish guns.
This report was not confirmed by the
British admiralty.

it doesn't amount to anything.

over it?'
Major Bryant said no one was pay

all he knew, he said. it might have
been done accidentally, although he
admitted no similar accident had
ever been known in the armory

The Nezperce Herald gets at
the meat in the cocoanut pretty
we'll in the following editorial
touching present low prices for
livestock:
What's the use of all this talk
and hullabaloo by agricultural
colleges, experts, railroads and
others about farmers going more
extensively into the livestock
business. when the packers pro-
coed in their remorseless way to
discourage the industry? As
everyone knows, or could know
if he was sufficiently interested,
the packer has practical control
of the livestock market as we'll
as the market of the finished
product. The prices for hogs,
cattle and sheep are fixed at the
packing center, and so are the
prices of your T-bone steaks, ba-
con, etc. The packer also makes
it part of his business to know
the quantity and condition of
stock in his territory so that he
can regulate his buying accord
ingly. This being the case he
has the stock raisor much at his
mercy. Facts, yes. In the face
of this condition, it would seem
good business on the part of the
packer to allow the producer at
least profit sufficient to perpetu-
ate his existence. Live stock is
a very desirable adjunct to farm
ing on this prairie, but it will not
be carried on to the extent it
should until some system is ar
rived at whereby the present dis
criminatory features are elimi-
mated"

REVOLVER AS PERSUADER
Alleged To Have Been Used BY Charles
Peno, Who Pleads Not Guilty.

An alleged squabble between milkmer
with the question of five-eent milk sup.
posedly involved led TO the arrest OF
Charles Peno of Beckley hill this morn
! ing When Peno WAS arraigned before
Magistrate II. w Scott on a charge OF
pointing a revolver at William T. Carley,
a Prospect street milkman, he entered a
plea OF not guilty and furnished bail in
the sum Of 500 for his appearance at a
hearing to be held this afternoon at
o'clock.
According TO the story told the officers
and grand juror by Csrley, the alleged
hourishing OF a revolver took place near
his residence early to-day. Carley claims
that Peno had been in the habit Of using
a path across the Carley property for the
purpose of delivering milk 20 a customer
in that neighborhood. This morning Car
lev confronted him with a request to keep
of the path and Pcno, according TO the
complainant's narrative, was presently
whipping out a gun with all the abandon

ley was speculating on the probable ac-
curacy Of Peno's aim. the Beckley bill
dealer is alleged 20 have brushed past the
complainant and continued on his way.
II is said that Carley and Pcno are not
agreed on the price that should BE- fixed
