SOUTH AMBOY, Feb. 26-Port
Warden Captain Edward Van Buren
was again present last night at the
council meeting, and brought to the
attention of the councilmen the dan
ger that still exists by the anchoring
of the loaded barges with shells, out
side of the city. Captain Van Buren,
explained that he together with Coun-
Gilman Shuey, were on board a tug
few days ago and were determined to
make an investigation of these affairs.
They went on board the tug and went
out to the scow, where Captain Van
Buren, blew his whistle to arouse the
captain of the scow, but failed to do

They went on board the barge and
took a shell from one of the large
boxes and II was marked, according
to the port warden, 75g. with No.
8, ,744. After finding all the informa-
ton desired. the port warden found
one of the guards supposed to be on
duty, and told him of his experience,
and recalled to them how easy Il
would have been f,r some one with
trouble in mind to get on the barge
and do damage, similar to the one
that occurred last October. No dam
ger signs were on the barge with the
exception of red lights, which were
not noticeable at this time of day,
