CITY STOPS ERECTION
OF FACTORY BUILDING
Fafnir Co. Will Try to
Have Ruling Set
Aside
On order of the building depart

On order of the building depart
ment, work was stopped today on a
factory building being erected for
the Fafnir Bearing Co. on Orange
. street, after the department had
found 1t to be five feet over the
building line.
The situation IS one that may have
costly results since it is possible for
the city to order removal of that
part which extends over the line,
which work would entail an expendi-
ture of about $4,000.
To stave off this possibility. Vice
President r. r. Searle and Assist
ant Treasurer A. G. Way of the Faf-
mir Co. called at the office of the
building INSPECTOR today and after
going over the matter with 1nspec-
tors Z. ]. Hennessy and A. N. Ruth
erfo"d, gave notice of an appeal TO
the board of adjustment.
Their appeal. the first to be taken
in the form of request for special
exceptions" as provided in the zon-
ing law, asks the board of adjust
ment to exercise the power given in
section 10. which allows the board
to permit, among other things, "a
variation from any required setback
building line, IN cases where the
topography would otherwise necessi-
tate excessively wasteful or imprac
ticahle construction"
An effort is being made today to
have this appeal heard at tonights
special meeting, the docket for
which is already crowded. Should
the hoard find it impossible to reach
the Fafnir case an order for a stay
of progress served this afternoon or
the Fafnir Co. the building superin-
tendent and the Boston Offices Of
the Aberthaw Construction Co. will
restrain the contractor from going
further on the job.

crete. Three stories have been COM
pleted and it was planned 10 build

Sarrail Criticized

London, Oct. 2S P-The British
press, aroused by accounts Of ex-
tensive casualties IN the suppression
of last week inurrection in Damas-
Gus, is strongly critical today of
General Sarrail, the French high
commissioner in Syria. Among
other things, his reported attempt
to overawe the rebels by parading
the corpses of executed brigands on
camel back through the streets OF
the city is sharply condemned.
The arrival Of consular reports
Is awaited to clear up the confusion
of the estimates of the casualties,
which range from 1000 to $4,000,
the latter figure coming from Arab
sources.
Americans There
None of the news reports indi-

killed. The British and Irish mis-
sions and other residents of these

there are more Americans, as theii
