George W. Scott, who for years resided in this city but abroad several years ago, Stephen Robb from Newcastle-on- Tyne, telling of conditions in Great Britain since the war broke out. Scott is an American citizen and so far as the war is concerned regards himself as'a neutral. For that reason he hesitated for a long/ time to write about the war, felling that he did not want to be in any way compromised by statements he might make- He says, as has been known for a long time, that the war censors forbid much that might be published on the all absorbing topic, but is quite in sympathy with suppressing to active Journalists. and news writers, saying that a few might be hanged for the good of all concerned. Mr. Scott realized from the first that the war was a serious matter and was strongly in favor of peace- From personal contact with the Germans. he did not regard them as a mean foe and knew that the war would prove a long and bitter matter. Speaking of th> British wounded, he says in some cases sbldiers were back in Newcastle hospitals within three days of being wounded on the field. The return of ;the wounded from the front is a wonderful and impressive sight, says Mr. cott in his letter. Magnificiently equipped Red Cross trains arrive at the station with the wounded, who are thén trans- ferred to motor ambulances and whisked to the big government hos- many went writes to pitals. He sees many marching away to battle as well, singing that famous war chant, “Are We Disheartened, No, No.” One regiment which went away. singing this song led by the colonel was badly cut up on the field and lost their leader. Some of the brave boys were back in the hospital within five days. ‘ DESTROYERS COLLIDE.

MERE MAN 1S FREED BUT WOMAN IS FINED Mrs. Tony Genoch Pounds Hus- band’s Skull With Flatiron Mere man has at last come into his rights and it-is to-Judge James T. Meskill that the sex should give a vote of thanks. One Tony Genoch of Chestnut street, with his wife, Helen, was in court this morning charged with assault, but when Tony told the court how his wife had pounded his skull with a flatiron Sunday noon and had then beaten him with a bottle, the judge exhibited sympathy for the poor oppressed man. But when Tony told His Honor that not once but three times had his wife beat him up and cut his head, bis mind was made up. He discharged the husband and fined the wife $5 and costs, placing her on probation during good be- havior. The couple were arrested by Officer Pierson after some boys had told him that Genoch was standing in the hall- way of his home govered with blood. The fight Sunday started when Tony dropped a glass. His wife said she thought he was going to beat her with it so hit him first to protect herself. Although Toney defended himself to the best of his ability, her superior weight was a big factor in the issue and he came out a poor second. Almost a Burglar. A fine of §10 and costs was imposed on Jake Sabola, who was fortunate in not being charged with burglary rather than breach of the peace. He was caught at 3 o’clock this morning in the private home of David Volk at 38 Grove street. His shoes were on the porch and he was in his stock- ing feet when he was found. Mrs. .Volk testified that she heard someone in her room, but when she called for her husband the intruder sat quiet- 1y on the floor at the foot of her bed. He was there when arrested by Officer James McCabe. Sabola told a ridiculous story. He said he had accompanied two girls to the house at 38 Grove street and sat on the steps with them until 3 a. m. Having no key, they told him they would enter through their bed- room windows and if hé cared about going in he could zo through another window. Obediently. he climbed in through a back window and was wan- dering aimlessly about. the house when found. Another Peddlar Fined. Another produce veddlar, I. Ber- man, was arrested by Detective Ser- geant Samuel Bamforth yesterday for failing to have a vendor’s license. Ber- man enteréd a plea of guilty and was fined $10 and costs as provided by the ordinance. Steals Chunk of Coal. To steal ten cents worths of coal to acquire a jag valued much more cost William Wallace $6 and costs. He was arrested by Officer Herbert Lyon at the corner of Park and Bige- low street and at the time had a huge chunk of coal which he had taken M_{my Children Suffer From Kidney Trouble Three years ago my little girl, An- gela, was taken sick with scarlet fever and later dropsy set in; her face and limbs swelled and her eyes puffed. A leading physician here at the time treated her without the slightest suc- cess. A sample of your Swamp- Root having jbeen left at the house at the time, I 'resblved to try it, and as it agreed with her stomach 1 continued using it with gratifying re- sults. The inflammation began to subside after she had taken the first fifty-cent bottle, and after she took two large bottles she was pronounced cured by the doctor and has been in 800d health cver since. The doctor came to see her everv dav and ex- amined her every second day until he pronounced her kidneys in perfect condition . Now then the doctor was under the impression that 1 was giving my girl his medicine, but as his medicine had failed to do a bit of good, and desiring not to offend him I did not tell him I was giving her Swamp- Root and he did not know the differ- ence. T did not use one drop of his medicine after I started my girl on Swamp-Root, and have always left that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root saved ;n_;' girl's life, for which I am grate- ul. I cannot praise it too highly. Very. truly MRS. MARY BYRNE, New Brunswick, N. J. State of New Jersey County of Middlesex .

Four friends of John Barleycorn were sent to jail by Judge Meskill, all of them being well known char- acters. Patrick Warren, who got] out of jail yesterday morning and was } arrested by Officer Sharpe a few hours later, was sent back for thirty days more. ‘“Gyp” Keegan, whose claim to fame lies in the dim past when he commanded admiration as a dancing instructor, fell into the clutches of Officer Joseph: Kennedy and consequently will spend the next fifteen days in jail. Paul Eyman of Bristol will not return to his home in ten days and Robert Spencer, a vagabond with a beard and counten- ance somewhat resembling the famous poet Henry W.

Boston, Nov. 2.—IFlames swept the East Boston car barns of the Boston Tlevated Railway company last night, destroying or damaging twenty-five semi-convertible street cars: The loss was estimated by company officials at about $250,000. From the machine shop, Where the blaze started, the fire jumped to a gasolene tank causing an _eXplosion which injured one man. The sparks were carried through the barn, and out over half a hundred cars in the adjoining vard threatening the com- pany's powerhouse and the nearby tenement district and gas and oil tanks.

THIRTEEN LIVES LOST IN BOOKLYN FIRE Most of Victims Overcome By Gas Be- lieved to Have Been Uncon- scious Before Fire Started. New York, Nov. 2.—Thirteen per- sons, of whom six were men, three women and four children. lost their lives in a fire which destroyed a three story brick tenement house at 66 North Sixth street, near the river front in Brooklyn early today. Most of the victims were overcome by gas which leaked from a broken pipe and are believed to have been unconscious before the fire started. The ~smoke completed their asphyxiation and many of them were found dead in bed. All were Poles. The building was occuplied by fam- ilies having as boarders laborers em- ployed in a sugar refinery. The gas which had filled the lower part of the house exploded spreading the flames and cutting off exit by the halls. Those who were not overcome by the gas fled by the fire escapes. Firemen were unable to enter the building until after the blaze was ex- tinguished and on entering the upper rooms found several bodies in beds and others of women and children in positions indicating that they had fled to the windows and hallways but were overcome by either gas or smoke. One man, a spectator, died of heart disease caused by excitement. The explosion was attributed to the break- ing of a lamp left burning in a hall- way. Officials investigated a report that the blaze was incendiary. Better Babies. The crusade for better babies has spread from coast to coast, and taken firm hold of American Mothers.
