His Diamonds.

Fireman Alfred Kimdie OF Truck Com
pany ia was killed and fifteen other
fremen, three captains and battalion
chief were overcome by smoke when
fighting a FIRE last night in the hold of
Government transport X. ]. Luckenbach,
which was lying at the Norton Lilly Line
pier. Bush docks. Fifty-frst street,
Brooklyn.
One Of the nrst to be overcome by
smoke that poured out OF No. hatch,
which was filled with hay. was Battalion
Chief James Iangan OF the Fortieth Bat
TALON. Several firemen carried Chief
Langan to a pier. still unconscious and
left him there to be treated by ambu-
lance surgeons who responded from six
hospitals. Soldiers were guarding the
piers and many workmen were about.
Nevertheless, when Chief Langan re-
gained his senses and was about able
to go back TO fighting the fire he dis
covered he had been robbed OF his dia-
mond badge, presented to him by men
of the department when he was pro-
NOTED to be a battalion chief: a diamond
stickpin worth $3.50 and $50 in cash.
Detectives could find no trace OF them.
Fireman Kimdie lost his life by FALL
ing into No. 3 hatch when he was over
come by smoke. His head struck
beam and he was dead when other fire
men. risking their own lives, went into
the smoked filled hold and carried him
out
The cause OF the fire Is not known.
Two alarms were turned in because
Nos. and matches. alongside that in
which the fire started, were flled with
gasolene and crude oil. The firemen
confined the blaze to No. 3 hatch, how
ever, and had the blaze under control
after a three hour fight.
Among those overcome were Capts'

bull hit upon scheme to dispose of the
human encumbering his tail, so he

Gerry had no advance knowledge of the

While Gerry pulled and grunted Sar-

grabbed the other horn OF the bull. To-
gether he and Sarvers managed to raise
the animal a couple OF inches and Gerry
crawled out from under. This irrits ted
the angry bovine, male, and he hooked a
horn in Sarver's coat and at the same
time gave Meisel a push that put the
civilian out of the war. Then tho angry
bovine. male. started down Leonard

as a trophy, but by that time the re-
serves had arrived with a rope. which
was thrown about the bulls neck. Then
the end OF the rope was hitched TO q

into q lamppost. After that he decided
that the revolution was a failure.
Meisel was taken to the Greenpoin'

with blankets and taken to the police
station. They'll be on duty again at
soon as they can get some clothes.
