Call of a Morning Alarm.
That the life of a flremnh Is beset with
hardship ai'J danger Is a fact to which
William AValton, of 1607 North 21st street,
can testify heartily. All of the dangct
doesn't como fighting fires, either. Tho
mere sliding down on a brass pole In re
sponse to nn alarm may be as hazardous
an climbing Into a burning building, a
fact proved by injuries sustnlned by Wal

an early hour this morning as nn alarm

noticed by tho other llrrmen, and IhcV
dnshed from the building, leaving their
companion lying unconscious upon tho

later by one or tho compnny who re
mained on duty In the engine house.
The Injured man was rushed to the

The money will revert to the State of
Pennsylvania If no relatlvo of the dead

Harker for years was a waiter In the

brokers and he served them so well that
finally he poscssed enough money re
ceived through tips to stmt a restaurant
of his own. He opened his business
place on Fifth street below Arch.
Brokers patronized him, but the place
was damped and only a few persons
could be served at a time. Harker was
a lino fellow, agreed tho brokers, but
his place was a little unhnndy to reach,
and then It was a little stuffy, and being
perched on a stool at a lunch bar wns
not the most comfortable position In
which to enjoy one's meals.
Harker sold out nnd went to n. hos

After nil tho bills were paid there was

A demand to order tho unloading of
the Norwegian trnmp steamboats Fram
nnd Sommcrstad, now lying In the Dela
ware Itlvcr, has been filed with the
United States District Court today by
Itnlph M. Bultowa, a Now York attorney,
representing the owners of the vessels,
who do not propose to have them seized
by warring powers by carrying supplies
to German men of war off the American
coast. The court has reserved an opinion.
The dictagraph exposure of tile desti
nations of tho Norwegian steamships
Finm and Sommcrotad, now at an-
chor In the Delawnro River, hao
disclosed the system wnicn maao
tho violation of neutrality possi
ble. Owner, agents and others are
now running to cover. The expose wai
due to the efforts of Christian Sloe,
I Norwegian ConVJl at this port, and
Ualph M. Uullo-wa, a Nsw York nttorney.
I It was in Mr. Bullown'a office the dic
tograph wnu initsllod, prior to a con
ference between tho masters of the ves
sels, representatives of tho Hamburg
Amerlcan Line and official) ot the, Inter
American Company. Mr. Bullowa de
olarea tliat the Inter-American Com
pany had chartered the vessels and then
recliartered them to the Hamburg
American Company. This Is dented by
JuIIuh P. Sloyer, dlreotor of tho latter
company, who asserts that his company
has chartered vessels nt various times
to supply ships of the line, but never
German cruisers.
Upon the advice of Mr. Moe, Captain
Axelsen, of tho Sommorstad, and Cap
tain Grlnhelm, of the Fram, consulted
Mr. Bullowa, after notifying their own
ers, tho A. F. Klavernesa & Co., of
Haugesend, Norway, and H. M. Wrangell
& Co., of Christlania, Norway.
CONSUL GETS SUSPICIOUS.
ConBtil Sloe's suspicion wns first aroused
by Captain Axelson and Captain Grlnhelm.
They told him they were to sail under
sealed orders and "things didn't look Just
right." They sold that they were In duty
bound to the steamship owners to enrry
the cargoes to their destinations, but they
did not believe the owners knew anything
about the shipment of supplies to Ger
man warships.
A fow days later the captains told Mr.
Moe that agonts ot the Hamburg-American
Line had sent them offers of big
bonuses for Immediate sailings. This was
during the time tho masters of tho steam
ships were awaiting ndvlce from home.
Tho advice camo and told them to con
sult an attorney. Then the conference
with the dictograph as a witness was ar
ranged. Nothing could be learned of the trans
action at the office of William J. Grand
field and Company. 303 Walnut stret, to
day. They are the local agents for the
steamships. They dllned to give th
name or names of the pron for whc-rii
they were acting and further refused ta
afTIrm or deny that thoy knew th car
goes wero meant for German ontiser.
"We will not dlnauss the transaction In
anyway," wan all that was said.
The Sommorstad and Fram are two of
six veaaols with similar cargoes on board
olarod from thia port by Grandfteld
& Co, The first one was the Holna,
which left on August 8 ostensibly for L
Guayrn. It was reported that )he hnd
been captured In the act of delivering
her cargo to a German warahlp. Tho"
Nepon sailed on August 1ft, the John Lud

Unlta on September 8. On their clearano
papers their destinations were given aa
Spanish or Brazilian ports.
Like "carrying coals to Newcastle" wan
the cnrrylng of coffee to Brazil by thft

wan the largo supply of fresh water

care to risk Imprisonment in English or
French prisons, but both emphatically
declared they feared mint for tho prop
el ty of their employe. Difficulty wti
experienced In getting erewa for thei
vessels, despite tho fact that hundred

Arrangements are now being made for
