clear passage for a moment, as he was
approaching Fifty-second Street, did
Finegan get an opportunity to close up
the gap between him and the horses
without imperilling some nervous mo-
.orist.
Then he shot ahead. The horses were
running blindly and paid not the slight
est heed to the automobile as il forged
up on the flank of the one in the rear.
Inch by inch the machine overhauled
tho animal, Finegan sounding his horn
wildly as a warning to any that might
cross his path.
Guiding the car with one hand, he
leaned far out and got firm grip on
the tossing name. He wrapped the
coarse hair about his knuckles and
slowly began TO settle back in his seat,
his whole body tense with the strain.
The horse faltered. tried to bolt away
from the machine, but finally sue
cumbed. coming to a dead halt SO sud
denly that the car almost overran it.
The other horse was caught by a
street sweeper few yards beyond.
Both belonged to Troop X, OF the LIST

which the soldiers are guarding.

Babies
Saved From Fire

Some one flung away his cigarette
near the toboggan in Luna Park, Coney
Island, early yesterday, and soon after
5 o'clock in the morning papler-
mache mountain on the side toward the
baby incubator building became a prac-
teal volcano, with real flames. Eleven
babies were carried out and. it is be-
lieved, will survive the experience.
The toboggan, with its complement,
the burro ride, was destroyed even to
the waterfall, which goes dry when the
park is closed. The building which
houses the incubator babies escaped
with a singeing. The damage is esti-
mated at $4,000, part of which was
made up by the extra crowds which
thronged the resort to see for them
selv,a what the fire had done.
Patolman Christian Waldeck was
the first to sight the fame-tipped noun
tain. As soon As he had turned in an
alarm he aroused Mrs. Elizabeth Amory
and Nine. Louise Recht, the nurses who
look after the incubator babies. They

The nurses coolly directed the work,
forbidding the removal Of single child
until it had been swathed In many lay
ers Of wrappings, the innermost Of
which had been warmed TO precisely
the right temperature. Then the ba-
bies were carried to hotels, where oil
heaters supplied the requisite tempera-
ture. Thanks TO the foresight Of the
nurses, not one of their charges showed
signs of developing pneumonia or OF
suffering otherwise from his or her
early morning jaunt.
All this was accomplished while the

had grown to leaping pillows that
surged and roared and cracked up the
face Of the imitation cliff, showering
the fimsy structures in the vicinity
with deluges OF sparks.
Spectators thought that there was
some delay in getting water on the
blaze, and it was said that the pressure
had not been good. Battalion Chief
Rogers denied this. The structure was
Of kind TO go up quickly, he said.

Vigilantes Outline
War on Disloyalty
Only Plan Arrest of Orators
Who Attack Wilson and
u. S. Policies

Cleveland Moffett's Vigilantes yes
ter denounced pro-Germans in less
general terms than heretofore, and at
a meeting at the headquarters OF the
American Defence Society, 903 Fifth
Avenue, announced precisely on what
grounds they would cause the arrest OF
Gisloyal street corner orators.
A siur on the President of the United
States, an attempt to dissuade young
men from joining the military service
and propaganda against the sending OF
American troops to France or against
the purpose OF freeing Belgium or
fighting Germany will be the kinds Of
disloyal utterances which the Vigil
antes will fight. A committee of seven
on policy formulated this programme
Yesterday, after hearing the expert
ences of fellow Vigilantes who pa
trolled Broadway for the first time
Saturday night.
Mr.. Moffett had heretofore believed
that an attack on England or any other
of our allies would be considered
as treason, and last week he asked
President Wilson for an authoritative
decision on this point. But his fellow
members of the committee overruled
him, and insisted that for the present
the fight against seditious utterances
be concentrated entirely on attacks
against the United States. If the
President should clear up the status OF
criticism of England, such as the
Friends of Irish Freedom, who hold
meetings regularly at Thirty seventh
Street and Broadway, indulge IN, then
the Vigilantes will broaden their cam
paign.
As a result of advice from Inspector
Cornelius Callahan, whom Police Com
missioner Woods had assigned to the
meeting, Mr. Moffett and his associates
decided that they would be cautious IN
the drive on the unpatriotic and that
they would be scrupulously careful not
to violate the law in their zeal. Mr..
Callahan pointed out that cases against
treasonous prouagandists would have
to be proved in the courts. He also
advised that the Vigilantes should wait
until a seditious orator finished his ad-
dress before causing his arrest.
Twenty-Five Vigilantes attended the
deliberative session. Miss X. Grant,
Of Jersey City, the only woman present,
told her associates that she had pa
trolled Broadway Saturday night and
that she intended TO continue TO par
ticipate in the work.
j. Newman, who had fought in the
Philippines, asserted that Jeremiah
OLeary had offered him a job as an
Irish propaganda. and had told him
that it was hard to get the right men,
as most Of those who were willing to
serve had 81 German accent and that
would give everything away"

" shot and killed by Sergeant Robert

sition a short distance away. An in
slant after the starters pistol was
heard for one of the races Cleary
toppled over against his friend. A
kasty examination disclosed a bullet

and technical charge of homicide was
made. Witnesses exonerated him.

Peace talk is in the air. Peace with
honor men have even pushed their
way into the ranks Of dancing ex-
ponents, and it now seems that one OF
the most amusing professional rows Of
recent times may be ended this week.
G.. Hepburn Wilson, ruler by divine
right of the Inner Circle, the advocates
of up-to-the- minute dancing, whose
convention will open at the Hotel Nc
Alpin this morning, put out peace
feeler yesterday, which has thrilled the
terpsichorean world. Instead OF fol-
lowing the traditional practice of call
ing the members of the American Ma
tional Association of Masters Of Dane
ing, who will open their convention at
boards, reactionaries, Tories and old
fossils" Mr.. Wilson announced that his
organization would send a 500-word
telegram, collect, to the conservative
organization, urging that the two wings
get together. Mr.. Wilson added that
he stands by every vituperative remark
he has made against his rivals, but he
now thinks he ought 10 merge with
them to prevent them from becoming
absolute mummies.
Jazz Dance 20 Be Demonstrated
The Inner Circle, which regards the
fox trot and the one step as dances of
a bygone age, will compromise on no
point. IL will insist on demonstrating
the interpretative value of the Ramble,
the Jazz Dance and the Toddle, the
dances which the circle asserts New
York society will be doing next winter.
The conservative masters of dane
ing, who will take TO the trenches
Wednesday, will probably not take is
sue with these Innovations. They are
expected to denounce them as half
baked, puerile and long-haired," for
they prefer the minuet, the polka, the
two step and other dances, which un-
married girls are afraid to say were
popular within their memory.
The banner Of peace might have
chance of flying in the dancing world
if the Inner Circle would be more con-
siderate of the sense of propriety Of
its enemy" But how can they expect
traditional folk to sympathize with

years arrived yesterday. 1t has been
the custom for the members Of the or

Fill Stadium
At Old Song Festival
Community Chorus Leads in
Entertainment for Soldiers
and Sailors

An old-fashioned song festival was
held in the stadium of the college OF
the CITY of New York last night. Be-
fore midnight fully 10000 Washington
Heights jewellers had sung until they
were hoarse and glad OF 1t.
The affair was under the auspices OF
the New York Community Chorus, act
ing in conjunction with the Park De-
partment, and had been arranged pri-
marily as an entertainment for re-
turned Plattsburgers, enlisted sailors
and soldiers and men who have lately
been enrolled in the new National
Army.
Harry Bsrnhart, director of the Com
munity Chorus, arranged the pro-
gramrne, which included solos, songs by
the Community Chorus itself, instru-
mental numbers by an orchestra OF
seventy pieces and several contribu-
tions by the boys band from the He
brew Orphan Asylum. After the regu-
lar programme had been concluded Di-
rector Barnhart invited all to join with
the chorus. And they did.
First, half a dozen or more OF the
old songs that have never lost their
nopularity in half a century-"Old
Black Joe !" "Tenting Tonight" and the
like-were sung. Then, one by one, the
national songs of our Allies were given
by the chorus, all those who knew them
Joining in, and finally, with both the
orchestra and the boys band accom-
psnying the singers, every one in TIL
stadium rose to his feet and sang "The
Star-Spangled Banner"
Close to 10000 people had managed
10 crowd their way into the stadium
during the evening, including at least
3 1000 of those who are already in some
branch Of the service for their country
or are about TO be.
There will be another song festival
tomorrow night in the assembly hall
Of the College of the City Of New York,
unless it is found inadequate TO accom-
modate the crowd, in which case the
stadium will again he pressed into use.
