commercial and two touring cars,
we're burned in a fire thai destroyed
q big one story garage of LOUIS
Vogel, situated in the rear of his
hotel in Arthur Kill road near the
Atlantic station shortly after 1
O'clock this morning. The fire
which completely Quilted the struc
ture and burned the five cars was
discovered by the Waterman of the
Atlantic Terra Gotta. who began
sounding the factory whistle at
first ard then turned in an alarm
from the fire o in front of h
plant in Arthur Kill road. The
watchman at the Tottenville Copper
Company plant also began blowing
the factory whistle at that place,
which alarmed the entire neighbour

The fremen of ISL engine and rs

scene and Deputy Chief Begin
came down from headquarters and
took charge of the blaze. When the
fremen arrived the building was
doomed and their attention was d.
rected to tbs hotel and to buildings

Joining that of the garage. Besides
the garage there was a store room
and stable connected with that
structure. One Of the touring cars
belonged to Hyman Mintz, a broth

in Bethel avenue. The estimated
loss is placed by Mr.. Vogel at
about $4,000, partly covered by IN

unknown. but it is believed that it
might have been caused by defec-
tive wiring. The blaze which could

Minister Van Karnebeek, who has the
arrangements in charge.
There had been long conferences
over night regarding the attitude 10
be adopted toward the press. Finally
word was sent 10 the newspapermen
that press rooms were being prepared
in the palace. which would be ready
in the afternoon.
Jonkheey Van karnebeek opened
this mornings session of the confer
ence with another address, expressing
the hope that the outcome Of the
gathering would be satisfactory. NJ
Gather OF Belgium spoke on the plans
for the organization OF the confer
ence, which he said would probably be
formed into one largo committee OF
