he said, he had been informed had
made the statement that if he (Hand,

embarrassed by having Republican

barraSs him to such an extent that
he could not get results.
Mr. Handley stated that he knew
every one of the men, who were can

had no fear but that they would work
in the best interests of the city; that
he would not ask or advocate any
thing that was not in the interest OF
the city and tax payers, and that
he had full confidence that who ever
might be elected to council would
only want the same results.

ERIE RAILROAD PIERS
And YARDS ARE RUINED
BY SPECTACULAR FIRE
(By Associated Press)

WEEHAWKEN, N. j., Nov. 4. -
The Erie railroads Weehawken piers
and water front yards were laid waste
early today by one of the most spec
tacular fires the metropolitan area
has witnessed in years.
Five piers, all heavily laden with
freight; a five-story flour warehouse;
so loaded barges; a train of 80 loaded
freight cars, and another of five oil
tanks, were destroyed Early esti-
mates Of the loss were from S1,000,000
up, but the figures were frankly
guesses, and will remain speculative
until check can be made of the varie-
gated shipments that were in transit.
The pier fire was discovered shortly
after midnight on Pier S. Within an
hour it had swept over nearly helf
mile of waterfront, Illuminating the
sky for miles around and drawing
great throngs of spectators to the Jer-
sey and Manhattan sides of the Hud-
son. A strong hreeze which famed
the flames carried burning embers
across the river, showering them down
on the New York waterfront and car
rying some as far as Times square.
Crews of several steamships on the
Manhattan side were called out to
quench great clusters of blazing EN-.
bers that rained down on the ships
Oil ExpIodes.
One of the doomed piers was leased
to the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey and contained several thousand
/ barrels of crude oil. A series of minor
explosions occurred when the flames
ate their way into this pier.
! Fire boats from New York and ev
! cry available piece of fire apparatus
from Hoboken, Jersey City and other
New Jersey towns were called out to
| aid the Weehawken force in its un
equal struggle but confined their eff
! forts to prevent further spread of the
! fire. Three firemen were seriously in
! Jured when the roof of one of the piers
collapsed under them.
The fire was the third to occur on
| Erie railroad property within six
weeks. Six weeks ago fire was dis
covered in the machine shops at Jer
sey City and two weeks ago on Jer
! sey City pier. Both were extinguShed
before much damage had been done
No theory as to the origin of today's
| fire was obtainable.

POSTAL INSPECTORS
HELP RUN DOWN THEFT
(Ry Associated Pressl

, NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Two special
postoffice inspectors arrived from
Washington today to aid local inspect
ors and city detectives in their efforts
to run down the automobile bandits
who robbed a mail truck of $4,000, 900
in securities and currency nearly two
weeks ago.
Three men have been arrested so
far in connection with the case but
all were quickly released when Frank
Havranck, driver of the looted truck,
failed to identify them. 1t was re-
ported yesterday that inspectors had
learned of plot to rob mail truck
several weeks before the actual rob-
berry occurred.
This plot was said to involve mail
truck driver and ten men, all of whom
were declared to be known to the in
spectors. w. H. Cochrane, head of
the local staff Of inspectors, denied
the report.

Be LOYAL TO PARTY,
ELECT REPUBLICANS,
RGESPATRICk LYNCH

Party loyalty was the keynote of the
address delivered by Patrick ]. Lynch,
of Indianapolis, at the largest meeting
yet held by the Republicans, at their
headquarters, Thursday night.
The meeting was filed with enthusi-
asm and radiated a greater degree of
determination for local victory than
has been evident in preceding meet
ings of the present city campaign.
Frequent applause interrupted the
speaker.
81 doubt the propriety of my telling
you what to do, but Republican can
speak to Republicans anywhere in the
United States. This campaign prob
ably is of more interest to you than
a national election, for the results Of
this election will effect your very
homes.
During my years of Republican
work it has been my experience that
Republican can always fill public
office better than a Democrat. This is
true because the Republicans have had
more experience in public Offices
Wise Guidance
PARTY loyalty all of the time is the
thing which always brings success to
your. state and to the nation. Did you
ever stop to think that this nation
grew from one of $4,000, 900 to one OF
100,000.000 and reached the peak of
not only national progress and effici-
ency, but also international, under the
guidance and wise counsel and policies
of the Republican party
"At the outbreak of the World war
we were not preparing for war, but for
peace. Yet we crossed the ocean 5000
miles and there on Flanders fields
marked indelibly the patriotism of our
people who had been led for so years
by Republicans.
People have asked what the Re.
publicans have done under the present
national administration. We have been
in power for only eight months, and
after coming through the war as we
have we must nurse ourselves back tc
our former standing.
