COMGIN
E FIGHT
TO HOLD STREETS
NG
f Caven Says Council Dolay Will
Cost City More Than
$150,000
"ARGUMENTS" ARE RIDDLED
A belief thot the combine In Council
fa scheming to continue the contract
syatem of street cleaning here next
year was expressed today by Director
Caven.
The Director, commenting on Coun
cil's blocking of the plan to start city
wide municipal street cleaning by Oe
I tober 1, said he felt that the combine
members would "stall along" until It
was too late to advertise for equip
sent. A delay beyond October I will simply
' be taking $100,000 from the pockets of
the taxpayers, Director Caven ald.
Ad a result the city not only will
haTO to pay to the contractor $150,000
more than the municipal system would
cost, but the delay will require the city
to begin its city-wide service in the
middle of winter.
Means Extra Handicap
"Purely a matter of subterfuge," was
h war Director Caven referred to the
combine's arguments, while Councilman
Dcvclin said they were "mere pretexts
and not sincere."
The skirmish yesterday was seen by
many as part of the fight the contractors
began when the forces of good govern
ment moved to knock the contractor in
fluence out of city government.
Mayor Moore and n mnjorlty of the
Council were elected in November. 1010
on a platform pledged to give the city
municipal street cleaning. Through Di
rector Caven the Mnyor had proposed
t extend this work over the entire city
before winter set in.
Planned to Save City Money
"I guarantee the city would save
SlfiO.OOO from October 1 to January 1."
Director Caven mid "Hy -tartlng Oc
tober 1, we would be in better shape
than on January 1, when adverse
weather conditions arc probable.
"Another thing that requires earlv
action by Council it. the need of funds
to purchnse destructors to be used for
rubbish and refuse, nnd will require
about six months to obtain nnd set up.
The hauls to the durr.ps an getting
longer and more costly and the dotmc-
tors would save moie money for the,!
city."
No Valid Escmo for Delay
Councilman Devcllu, who voted to
(tart municipal street cleaning er the
entire city by October 1, said he can see
no legal or business reason why the
work should not be started then, if the
Council combine did not stand in the
way.
"Any delay will react against the
city's interests nnd in favor of the
contractors," he said. "I think some
of the reasons offered for delay are
mere pretexts and not sincere. The
Director of Public Works is the best
authority as to the saving of money in
this matter, and if he says we can Have
$150,000 we certainly ought to do It."

BUT QUICKLY FREED
Irish Republican Leader Re
leased Immediately Upon
Being Recognized
TROOP TRAIN IS WRECKED
By tho Associated Press
Dublin, June 24 Knmon De Vn
lern was arrested Wednesday night near
this city and later released, It was
definitely established today. There had
been earlier denials from Sinn Fein au
thorities that he had been apprehended.
It nppears certain that De Vnlcrn
was arrested either in error or through
ovcrzenl on the part of the officials con
cerned. The arrest. It is understood,
took place at Illnckrock, County Dub
lin. The Republican leader was detained
for the night and, his identity being
lenrned, was released yesterday after
noon. It was supposed at first that a man
resembling him had been arrested and
on this ground Sinn Fein authorities
denied the reports.
It is declared here there is no inten
tion on the part of authorities in Ire
land to arrest De Valcra. This state
ment would appear to be borne out by
the fact of his being released when his
identity was established.
A military lorry was nttacked here
this auernoon, bombs being thrown nt
the lorry, two of which landed in it.
The casualties to the military hac nor
been reported, but five civilians were
wounded In heavy rifle firing which fol
lowed. .
Belfast, June 24. A troop train
conveying soldiers from Belfast to
Dublin was wrecked today nt Abcrvoyle,

Two spccinl trains with soldiers and
horses who had participated In the
reception of King George nnd Queen
Mary on the state opening of the Ulster
Parliament Wednesday had passed over
the spot safely The third train wbh
wrecked at a steep embankment when
the mine exploded, most of the carriages
falling over the embankment. Phy
sicians were immediately rushed to the
scene.
Large forces of ponce and soldiers
also were dlsnatched to the snot, which
Is In n lonely mountainous district just
beyond the Ulster border. Numerous
railway outrages have been perpetrated
here. The earliest reports suld that
forty men had been killed, but later
reports decreased this number.
Cork. Ireland, June 24. (Hy A. P.)
Police barracks were bombed and there
was general street fighting in this city
last night. One woman was killed, and
three girls nnd three men wounded.
The disorders began at about 7

and Douslns place hirrorks were also
bombed, but were little damaged.

N 1100,1 BLAZE
Fireman Scalded Others Over
come In Fighting Garage Fire
at 30 E. Somerset St.
EXPLOSIONS HAMPER WORK
Fifty automobiles wero destroyed and
a total loss of $100,00( sustained when
tho garage of Richard Hill, at 340 East
Somerset strcot, was burned at 2:20
o'clock1 this morning.
The fire was discovered by John
Goldman, a watchman on the Reading
Railway. He placed several torpedoes
on the track. A shifting cnglno ran
over these, exploding them, and the re
ports attracted tho attention of Pa
trolman Smith, who turned In the
alarm,
Tho fire was a fierce one, and for an
hour the firemen hnd their hands full,
but they managed to get It under con
trol. Ono fireman wns Injured. Ho Mens
Frank Lodo, engineer of Engine Com
pany 23, who was severely scalded by
steam from his engine. Four other
firemen were overcome by smoke, but
later revived.
It is not known just how tho fire
started. Thomns McGulgan, the night
man, was In the garage at the time. Ho
noticed smoke In the rear nnd when on
his way to investigate was driven back
by a cloud of smoke nnd flamo. Ho ran
to the street nnd gave an alarm. By
the time the first cnglno company ar
rived tho cntlro rear of the garage was
a innss of flames.
A second nlnrm was at once turned
In. By this time tbo flro hnd reached
some of the portnble gasoline tanks, and
these exploded ono after another, send
ing showers of blazing gasoline nil over
tho place. People residing In the
neighborhood took frlzht and began
moving their furniture nnd valuables
from thc houses.
Firemen and volunteers forced their
way through the smoke and tried to
move out some of thc motorcars stored
in the place. A few wero rolled out, but
tho fire gained headway so rapidly It
was impossible to save morn than five
or six. The rest blazed furiously as the
gasoline and oil in their tanks Ignited.
lfy this time the roof collapsed and
several firemen narrowly escaped being
plunged into the burning building. Tim
shower of spnrks and the flames cn-
anngcrcn nearby properties, and the liro-
men cicvoicd most oi tneir euorts to
preventing a spread of tho blaze. Tho
fire was still burning at 7 o'clock this
morning.
Hill, proprietor of the gnrago, was
unable this morning to tell how thc fire
started. The loss Was equally difficult
to estimate, he said, until thc place
could be entered nnd thc number of
cars that wero In at the time of the
firo checked up. There were between
forty and fifty cars of various sorts in
the garage when the firo started, he
said.
