WILDWOOD, N. 3; July IS. This city
by the s hss been peacefully captured
and completely taken over by the score
of battalions of volunteer firemen who
4re nuests of the municipality during the
celebration of Firemen's Day. They
throng the Boardwalk, they lnvot the
hotel and they virtually own the ocean.
All day yesterday the steady stream ot
flre-flghters flowed Into Wlldwood and
today there are more than a thousand ot
them here with their wives, sweethearts
and frttinds. Companies from Mlllvllto,
Ocean City and Margate arrived thin
morning, completing the list.
Nor Is this all. Governor and Mm.
Fielder, with mora than a score of Btate
fienators, members of the lower houia
fcnd other officials from Trenton, with
their wives, also are guests of the munici
pality They will review tha four-mll
parade of firemen, vlsli the famed Five
Mile Beach, take a dip In the surf and
dine at the Holty Beach Yacht Club,
where Wlldwood Crest will be the host
More than 1009 dinners wilt be served to
the firemen by the city at the Casino.
FIELDER SEES TESTING OHOUNDS.
Thla morning at 8 o'clock tho Governor's
party and Stale officials motored to Cape
May Point, the southern extremity of
New Jersey, and one of the few places
on land In the world from which the sun
nppearB to rlso and set In the ocean. At
Bayslde the Governor Inspected the ord
nance testing ground of tho Bethlehem
Steel Company. The Invitation nas ex
tended only to Governor Fielder, aa strict
secrecy Is preserved by the company con
cerning testa made hire, and few persons
are allowed to approach the ground.
Following the motor tour, tho party
sped back to Wlldood for a dip In the
ocean and a shore dinner afterward at
the yacht club.
Shortly before 2 o'clock the Governor
and party will take positions In the re
viewing stand In front of Edgeton Inn.
The firemen, with their apparatus gaily
decorated with bunting and led by Lucas
Band, of Philadelphia, will move at 2
o'clock. The route of the parade In
cludes most of the principal avehues. a
distance of nearly four miles. Chief Mar
shal Eben Young will lead the procession.
He will be followed by the Wlldwood Fire
Company, with Us new motor-driven ap
paratus, under command of Chief Charles
I. Nlckeraon. Silver and bronze trumpets
and cupse banners, clocks and batons, will
be awarded to the paraders by a com
mittee which will review the procession
from the plaza 'of the City Hall.
Not the least distinctive part of tho
Una will be"S automobiles filled with suf
fragists. Fifteen bands will be In line.
With the slogan. "IWe're proud of oui
city and our guests," Wlldwood has ex
tended the welcoming hand to the several
thousand visitors within her gates. No
thing Is too good for them and nothing
they care to do Is met by reproach As
witness the arrival of the second con
tingent of the Burlington volunteers on
the'- motor-driven truck.

The appointment of Mackey came as a
distinct surprise to the Vares, as well ob
to Mackey himself, It also surprised
Senator McNIchol. McNIchol rushed In
to aee the Varea as soon as Mackey'a
appointment was announced and de
manded to know why he had not been
consulted.
Tho Vares told them they were as much
surprised as he.
Mackey has been considered a good or
ganizer, and with the 10 or 12 referee Jobs
at $2500 a year and many minor places at
the disposal of the board, friends of Sen
ator Penrose Immediately saw danger.
A flood of telegrams reached Penrose
headquarters a couple of dayB after
Mackey was appointed. The word waa
sent out for the Pentose district leaders
to go to Philadelphia. Senator McNIchol
met them there yesterday and saw them
down here last night and before he went
to Philadelphia today,
He represented Penrose and passed the
orders on the Penrose followers, said
several of those who attended the confab.
Attending the conferences In Philadel
phia, and at the shore were the county
chairmen from most of the central coun
ties In Pennsylvania and a score of other

That the fight will be carried on in

In Philadelphia all during the "dog days."

JUDGE SUSPENDS
CITY'S JITNEY LAW
Continued from I'aitr Ono
Sulzberger, sitting In tho summer court
for July, said:
"While tho situation Is deplorable since
tho public Intercuts demand proper nnd
speedy regulation of Jltnoy traHlc, which,
unrestrained, Is fraught with danger to
the community, at tho same time tho
operation of the ordinance Involves seri
ous danger to the Jltneymtn, and would
virtually dentroj their business, at least
cutting It from 100 to 40 per cent
'If, on final hearing, tho ordinnnce
should be adjudged void, tho mischief
done the Jltnejcmen would bo practically
Irreparable, while, on tho other hand,
lf.lt should be adjudged valid, the more
dilay between this time nnd the final
hearing will not Involve the city In
pecuniary loss, since tho license fees
may be collected and the bonds received
then, as well as nt this time.
JITNEY MEN JUBILANT
President G. S. Winner, of thi- Auto
Service Assoclrtllon, whose headquarters
are at 138 North Broad street, Jumped
with Joy when he received the news.
"It's great, It's bully, that's all I can
say," he exclaimed over the phone "The
Auto Service Association finished right
at the top, and due credit ought to be
given to the West Philadelphia and South
Philadelphia boys They helped us a lot
In the fight "
"Wo will start to Issue slx-for-a-quarter
strip tickets." he declared.
City Solicitor Ryan, who took the side
of the city In the hearing yesterday and
declared the ordinance constitutional, re
fused to- comment on the granting of the
Injunction ,
Judge Sulzberger, In his report, attacked
the ordinance as not providing for the
entire safety of the public. He said
"With the mere wisdom, or unwisdom,
of the ordinance wo have no concern.
The power has been conferred on another
body and we may not substitute our
discretion for theirs. The present or
dinance la a case In point Although It
Is Intended to regulate an Important
carrying business, It has overlooked some
of the simplest precautions necessary
for the protection of the public.
"LAW INCOMPLETE"
"In none of Its 16 sections Is there a
provision commanding the drivers of
these motorbussos to slow up as thev
approach a. crossing. In such manner
that they may have their vehicles under
ready and full control. Such a regula
tion would be at least a partial preven
tive of the numerous casualties which
are often flippantly described as "un
avoidable accidents."
"There is likewise no prohibition of
smoking by the driver of the vehicle
while on duty A man driving a loco
motive through a busy city street should
concentrate all his attention on the man
agement of his machine and the observa
tion of obstacles In the way. If he divert
a part of his faculty to the management
of a pipe or a cigar or a cigarette, he
withdraws Just so much from the quan
tity of attention wnicn ne ougnt to givo
to his business. Moreover, there may be
passengers to wh.om smoke and ashes
may be disagreeable or Injurious.
In summing up the complaints of Jit-
neymen that the ordinance compelled
them to run over prescrmed routes,
forced them to run two and a half times
the distance they now run for the same
price; compelled them to pay a license
fee of 151 nnd a bond of 12500, all ot which
would virtually drive them out of busi
ness. Judge Sulzberger said:
"Their complaint appears to be based
on the erroneous theory that the munici
pality has no function to regulate the
use of Its streets and that they are to
decide which streets they want for busl
ress purposes and how great Is the use
they wish to make of them. As the peo
ple have paid for the streets, they are
entitled to a reasonable use of them, and
their legal representatives are the proper
parties to determine how far and under
what terms private persons may carry on
public passenger traffic thereon.
"The plaintiffs, however, charge and
by affidavits support the charge, that the
business which the ordinance purports
to regulate was the carrying of pas
sengers for a lower rate than the cost
-of running with reasonable compensation
for outlay and risk

OLD BILL LOUGHLJN, W CONCRETE
TOMB, SLEEPS UNDER WILLOWS
Impressive Ceremony and Genuine Grief Mark the Obsequies on
the Banks of the Delaware Friends Pay Tribute
as Birds Chant Requiem.
On the banks of the Delaware, under
a weeping willow tree, Old Bill Loughlln
was laid at' rest today.
Even the "little birds, overawed by the
silent gathering at his grave, chanted a
requiem from the nearby trees In Bridge
port. Outside the Utile circle of mourn
ers, a few stray farmers, with bared
heads, shared the grief of Old Bill's
friends. Never had they attended a more
impressive ceremony. Old BUI would
have been proud had he been able to see
the care with which he was laid to rest.
The quiet spot was chosen because BUI
waa fond ot nature and silence. Unlike
other parrots, he only spoke when it
was necessary.
Through ,th Une Of weeping children
bis body was carried in the arms of his
faithful master, Frederick Htss. The
little oonsrele coffin, which will protect
the bird from the ravages of time, was
covered with fl6wers gathered by the
Uttle by and stria In the neighborhood,
who loved him. They knew 014 Bill well
Didn't they take him home when he used
to go out for a. walk! And how many
times did thty drag him from the shadow
of death under wagon wheels and trolley

BERLIN, July 15. The Russian forti
fied city of .Przasnysz, 50 miles north of
Warsaw, has been stormed and captured'
by German troops, the War Office an
nounced this afternoon.
This town has been held by the Rus
sians for several months, being situated
at the extreme northern point of an angle
on which the Czar's troops had been con
centrated for the defense of Warsaw
from nn attack by troops from East
Prussia. Directly north of Warsaw,
Przasnysz Is less than 25 miles from Put
tusk, one of the chief defenses of the
Polish capital.
The capture of Przasnysz marks the
second entry of the Germans Into the
city since the war began. Early In the
spring campaign Prussian regiments took
the city after a three days' struggle In
vhlch both sides lost heavily. The ar
rival of Russian reinforcements compelled
tha Germans to retire upon Ml&wa a few
daye later.
In addition to the success at Przasnysz
where the Germans captured 2400 prison
ers and eight machine guns, they have
also taken the Olezanka heights, nort'.i
east of Suwslkl, occupied Kansza, south
of Kolno and near the Bobr River, and
also gained positions to the east of
Kansza. The official report ot the Gen
eral Staff says:
"Near Kalvaria we captured several
Russian positions and held them, despite
fierce counter-attacks. Northwest of Bu
walkl we stormed and captured the
heights of Olszanka.
"South of Kolno we captured the vil
lage ot Konsza' and the positions eaBt
of the town. South ot the Tarak-Llknlkl
line we took 2W0 prisoners and eight ma
chine suns."

years, gave him o Hess 83 years ago. it
was only fitting, therefore, that all these

death had taken him from their midst
The bird was temporarily burled in the
yard after his death on Tuesday, and It
was subseqeunlly decided that he should
rest In s, place which would be more in
kseping with his life.
All his old friends willingly agreed to
be honorary pallbearers and Journeyed to

STORM AND DEFEND TRENCHES
Practical Demonstrations in Modern
Warfare at Camp Fielder.
CAMP FIELDER. Sea Girt. Julv 15
Troops of Now Jersey non-commlssloned
officers, who are here for a course of
military Instruction, are. this nfternoon.
engaged In a tactical struggle for the
possession of the trenches which they
constructed yesterday. Tho army of the
enemy, which lnnded on the beach last
night and advanced early this morning
to engage Major Wlnfleld S. Price's
troops, are "storming the trenches with
shot and shell," In an effort to rout the
non-commlssloned officers.
Captain Harold Wakefield, of Newark,
the Instructor, commanding the first
provisional company of the Instruction
school, was ordered to tho trenches, with
hlB troops, late this morning. The other
three companies were withdrawn from
tho scene of the trench. digging and were
ordered to make an advance upon the
trenches, and capture them. If possible.
righting from trenches Is n novel ex
perience for the New Jerseymen, as It Is
the first tlmo they have actually got down
to trench digging on nn extensive scale.
They found trench digging Interesting
from many angles, because, while they
could hear tho bursting of the Imaginary
shells from the artillery supporting the
advance of tho Invading party, and watch
the enemies as they approached from the
point of their landing last night, they
were hidden from view by the cunningly
constructed parapets, which had been
thrown up In front of the trenches at
the time they were constructed.
After the tactical maneuvers are fin
ished for the day tho men will be put to
work refilling tho lines of trenches, this
being a part of Major Price's agreement
with the owner of the land.
