FLAMES CAUSE
HEAVY DAMAGE
Monte Borak's Store in Smith
Street is Destroyed Early
Last Night
STARTED FROM CHIMNEY
Family Living on Third Floor
of Building Rescued--loss
About $4,000
STARTED FROM CHIMNEY

Fire believed to have started in the
chimney between the first and second
floors last night gutted the dry goods
store of Monte Borak at 275 Smith
street. The damage has been put
at between $4,000 and $4,000 to
the building and stock, most of
which is total loss, not covered by
insurance.
The blaze was discovered at S:S5
o'clock, the alarm being turned in
from box 25 at Smith street and the
Central railroad by two small boys
who noticed the flames and smoke
as they passed the dry goods store.
TIE arrival of the fire department
found the interior of the building
ablaze and strenuous efforts had to
be put forth before the flames were
under control.
Centering about the second floor OF
the building the flames radiated well
over the ground floor. The portion
of the stock untouched by the fire
was destroyed by the dense clouds
of smoke and by water.
The second story of the building
was unoccupied, but a family re-
sided on the third floor. Patrolman
John Kurpiel, on whose beat the
fire occurred, directed the removal
of the occupants.
Monte Borak is the owner of the
store. while the building is the prop
erty of Joseph Joselsen. Mr.. Jo-
selsen's loss is covered by insurance,
but Borak said this morning that
he had allowed his policies to LAPSE
about two months ago and that his
stock will be almost a total less.
Borak has been confined to his bed
by illness for the past two months
and has not been actively engaged
in running his business

EXPECT FAILURE
ON SUBMARINES
Problem at Armament Con-
ference Likely to be Left
for Future Meeting
FRANCE AND JAPAN BALK
Delegates Await Final Word
on Hughes Proposal From
Paris and Toxic
FRANCE AND JAPAN BALK

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81 (By The
Associated Press) ).-Suggestio that
the whole submarine problems be
left TO a future world conference
gained increasing prominence today
while the delegates to the Washing
ton armament conference awaited
replies from France and Japan to
the American compromise proposal
for submarine limitation.
No delegation was prepared to op-
enly advocate postponement of the
problem and outwardly all delega-
ton spokesmen held TO the custom
airy optimism over the prospects OF
ultimate agreement. Privately,
however. more than one delegate
conceded that the French and jap
anese opposition to the compromise
proposals constituted a discouraging
barrier to the progress of submarine
negotiations.
Pending action by the French
cabinet at meeting today the
French delegates remained confident
that their refusal to accept the new
American figures would be upheld
by their government. The Japa-
nese, too, expected toxic TO insist
that the American plan was unac-
ceptable.
There was no meeting today of the
conference naval committee and ac-
tivities were confined to informal
consultation among various groups.

.P0L|CEWOMAN
IS BEST SHOT
Has Highest Score at Revolv-
er Practice of Newly Ap-
pointed Policemen

Polcewoman Jensina Olesen
scored an initial success yesterday
afternoon when she ran up the
highest score made in the first tar
get practice held for the instruction
of the recently appointed policemen
who reported for duty yesterday.
The practice was held using revol-
vers and shooting at the standard
revolver target. Policewoman OLE
sen scored a bullseye and landed a
second bullet in the circle adjoining
the center. Her two hits out of ten
shots placed her at the top of the
scoring list with a total of nine
points, arrived at by counting the
bullseye as five and the next circle
as four.
The next best score. among The
recruits was made by Patrolman
Henry Zanzalali. who also scored
two hits in the same number of
shots, but the holes were in outer
rings of the target and did not count
as much as Policewoman Olesen' s
total of two. James Burke hit the
target three times, one hit better
than any of his opponents, but the
missiles landed in the outer rings
and failed to place him on top.
Policeworcan Olesen's first tour of
dury yesterday included the hours
from 8 O'clock in the afternoon un-
til IL at night. Her duties took her
upon an inspection trip to Column
bia Hall on State street, Sinitsky
Hall at Smith and Watson avenue,
several trips to the Grand theatre
and several other ininor inspections.
Her report as spread upon the book
at head1uarters showed that all the
places visited had been in operation
satisfactorily.
Policewo,nan Olesen's achieve
ment would seem to give the lie TO
the oft-quote6 statement that with a
woman holding the gun the best
place for safety is directly before 1t.
Her showing seems 10 indicate that
she already knows something about
handling the police revolver and II
is intimated that she will continue
her practice as otter as possible.
The target practice held yesterday
was One incident in the day of pre-
nminary instruction for the new
men. With Officer Frank Seiboth
and Sergeant Frank Kasprzak act
ing as instructor. tho recruits were
put through a short course in hand
ling their weapons and it was an
nounced that the regular practice
will be held twice a month for the
new men as we'll "a. those previously
on the force.
The policemen were given lectures
on Iheir duties also. Short talks on
police work were made by Chief
Niels ]. Tonnesen and a brief ses-
sion of drilling followed the talks.
Study of their general instructions
occupied more of the first day and
then some of the new cops were put
on duty. Each man put in full
eight hour shift.
Those who have uniforms are at
work today and the remainder will
go into active service as soon as
they are equipped.
The new members of the depart
ment are Policewoman Jensina Oh
sen, and Officers James f. Burke,
Aaron F'ranzblau, Frank Geneski,
Louis Hansen, William keaung,
Archibald Mason. Arthur Petersen.
Frank Rubaha, Bernard Toolan and
Henry ZanZalari.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-12-27

The source of this information
has not been diyulged by Chief
O'Connell. but he thinks that the
point is of sufficient importance to
warrant an investigation.
While the autopsy performed up
on the body of the murdered Ku-
charski girl showed she had been
the victim of a criminal attack, a
very different report resulted from
the examination of the body of
Stella Ostroski At the time of its
discovery the body was believed to
have been exposed to the weather
for several weeks and was in a bad
state of decomposition. An autopsy
was performed and the result, as
given out, showed that death had
been the result of exposure and
starvation. With the discovery Of
the shocking crime at New Bruns-
wick, however, and the belief that
the suspected murderer was living
near Rhode Hall at the time of the
Ostroski case, it is indicated that an
investigation might show Cares i'm
plicated in both instances.
The captured suspect is confined
in a solitary cell and is under close
watch as the result of a supposed
intention to commit suicide. This
mornin-, however, the prisoner
seemed to be in a calm and COM
posed frame of mind. He was seat
ed huddled beneath a blanket and
complained of the cold. Cares was
transferred from the city Jail TO the
county institution yesterday morn
ing after commitment papers charg-
ing him with murder had been
lLade out by Recorder Charles W.
Tindell.
An interesting fact was brought
out in the course of examinations
conducted by the authorities. Cares
is declared TO have emphatically
stated he was not a believer in
believed in nothing.
Cares was captured on Saturday
night at 10 o'clock. Acting upon
information received from a mys-
terious source Chief O'Connell and
headed a posse and took the fugi-
tive from his refuge in his brothers
cabin near Dayton.
Heavily armed and equipped for
all emergencies, the party of eight
men headed by the two police off,
GERS. O'Conneu of the city police
department, and Ferguson repre-
senting the county authorities, left
this city at 9 o'clock Saturda.' night
in automobiles. Those in the party
in addition 10 the chief and the
county detective were Roundsmea
John Coleman and George Cox. Pa

The party proceeded through the

of New Brunswick, and went along
