Mr. Merrill was also deputized by the State Committee of the Socialist party to see Gov. Dix, but the Governor is at Thomaon, where he expects to remain until Momiay.

LITTLE FALLS, N. ¥., Oct. 19.—The situation growing out of the strike at the knitting mills became increasingly grave to-day. The desertion of work- men from certain parts of the mille is forcing the closing of other departments dependent upon those originally idle. The strikers, encouraged by the moral support of the Socialist orators from Schenectady, have broadened their de- mands, while the mill owners declare they will close their works com- ely rather than yield.

Fire started about 7 o'clock to-day In Teaac,Jablin’s Yiddish Turkish bathe at No. 148 Madison street, caused a panic im @ synagogue and led to the thrilling rescue of @ family on the fourth floor. A service was on at the time in the Anaschnuer Schward, @ synagogue on the third floor, but of the 200 worship pers, though badly scared, escaped. Whether any one was tn the baths or not the firemen could not learn as they began fighting the blage; but later found the baths had been unocoupled. The fire had evidently been burning some time and had obtained consider- able hold when @ back draught or| something caused it to blow out the windows of the basement and the door leading to the upper floors. The flames poured out of the windows and soon had. the fire escapes red hot. Heavy smoke quickly filled the synagogue. The ordinary early morning service was taking place and all the 200 men Present were in their praying robes, and those conducting the service were NING WOKLD, without their shoes. At the cry of “fire!” there was an immediate rush for the stairs. Some stopped to take off their tallths and the leaders ran out without their shoes in their anxiety to save the scriptures, Several fell down the stairs. On the fourth floor lived Morris Wein- garten, with his wife, Mary; her aged crippled mother, and four children, Sol- omon, eight, Sidney, a crippi Milton, four, and Florence, two, Rebdecea Lunits, Mrs. Wetngarten's mother, The boy Sydney has hip trouble and can hardly walk. Mrs, Lunits, who fs sixty, has a dislocated arm, The Teacue of these two was even more aiMcult than that of the others. Patrolmen Geor; Miller and Frank Glennon ran into the house and, forcing thelr way through the worshippers from the synagogue, rushing down the stairs, succeeded in getting to the Weingarten apartment. They got the family down to the second floor on the fire-escape, Miller crept along on the ledge of the adjoining house to a window. Then one by one Glennon swung the Wein- gartens to him and dropped them six feet. Beginning with the mother and then the father, that he might take their weight before his strength was ex- hausted, Miller, standing on the coping over a store, caught each of the seven and passed them through a window to wafety, Battalion Chief Marshall highly praised the two policemen for their plucky work. catch Mey PROMINENT PEOPLE WILL TALK AT lec BAZAAR.

FREDERICK P, FORSTER, DISMISS LIEUTENANT FROM FORCE AFTER Hi John F, Stanton, Fired by Waldo, Declares He’ll Ap- peal to Courts. Notice of dismissal from the Police Department was served, to-day, upon Lieut. John F. Stanton, and Commis sioner Walio made the news of Stan- ton's diemiesal public. The trial of Stanton, on a charge of attempting to extort $250 from Detective Richard F. Oliver, was held Friday of last week and Monday of this week, before Dep- uty Commissioner McKay, who found the accused policeman guilty. Stanton, who was in the Police De- partment seventeen years, was placed by Commissioner Bingham in charge of @ epecial bureau to investigate the char- acters and capabiiities of applicants for appointment to the police force. He remained in charge of the bureau through the administrations of Bingham, Baker and Cropsey. The bureau was discontinued by Waldo about two weeks after he took office, on the ground that it was an occasion for graft and scandal and un- necessary, inasmuch as the Commis- sioner of Police was required to ap- point applicants certified to him by the Civil Service Commiasion. ‘At @ session of the Aldermanic Investi- gating Committee, a month ago, Stan- ton was called to the stand to give evidence in regard to men who had bee! rejected as unfit for police duty by Commissioners Baker and Cropsey, but were appointed by Waldo. Stanton vol- unteered a lot of information and dt was revealed he had been active in alding Counsellor Buckner, of the Committee, in getting together material upon which questions put to Commissioner Waldo were baged. A few days later Stanton was served with charges, Oliver said that on Nov. 7, 1909, while he was an applicant for a place as @ patrolman in the Police Department, Stanton asked Michael F. Gibney, formerly a member of the Fire Department, for $250 to insure Oliver's appointment. Gibney, according to Ol- iver’s story, was posing as Oliver's uncle. It was alleged Stanton said if he didn't get the $250 he would expose the fact that Oliver had once been arrested. Oliver said nothing about this occurrence for nearly three years. David Neuberger, counsel for Stan: ton, will appeal to the courts, He also thr 8 to call the attention of the District-Attorney to what he calls palpable commission of perjury in the case. i eh, Peddler Bitten by Dom.
