HUNT FOR DEAD GOES ON
AMID PATERSON RUINS
PATERSON, N. J. Jan. 3-1 —
Michael Dunn, county prosecute!,
and the gTand jury viewed today
the ruins of the Rescue mission,
the Salvation Army lodging house
hare which was destroyed by fire
Sunday, and caused the death of
19 men. Posribly one or two more
were burned to death. Besides these
deaths, thero is an inured man in
the General hospital and eight in
St. Joseph’s.
The ruins have been gone over
roughly, and no more bodies have
boon found, but they will be search
ed more carefully later to see if
bones exist that escaped the rough
examination of the firemen who
overhauled the debris in the base
ment yesterday and last night.
As things stand now, there are
eight bodies in the morgue which
bear identification tags. Thor-- are
eight other bodies which will prob
ably never be identified. They are
too badly charred, and all traces
of clothing and distinguishing
marks have been wiped out.
The burned building was erected
25 years ago, and was old dry and
burned readily. There were sleep
ing accomodations on the first,
third and fourth floors. The second
floor was used for executiyo offices.
Down the back of the building was
a narrow iron fire escape.
Passage from one floor to another
was by way of a narrow staircase,
inclosed in wood on one side and
resting against the wall on the
other. In what romained of this
flimsy staircase six bodies were
taken, all charred and burned.
At this time of year the place
held nightly from 90 to 100 men.
All of those who were a&leep on
the first floor escaped without much
trouble, and about all who were
on the third floor got down the two
flights and out of the building in
6afety. Except a dozen men who
leaped from the fourth floor into
Life nets, ho one seems to have
escaped from the fourth floor.
Fur garments made and repaired
at the Nome Tailoring Company.

EXPORATIONS OF DOMESTIC
ANILINE COLORS
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5, (By mail)
■—Notwithstanding the constantly
increasing demands of the dome
stic market and the handicap
caused by munition manufacturers
drawing more and more largely on
the available supply of toluol and
other coal-tar derivaties vitally es
sential as raw material for the dye
stuff industry, exports of aniline
colors during September show a
gain over the preceding month of
166,800, or 21.9 per cent, accojd
ing t oa statement issued today by
the Bureau of Foreign and Dome
Stic Commerce, of the Department
of Commerce. September exports
by Customs Districts indicate that
$261,445, or over two-thirds the
total value of all aniline colors
shipped abroad, passed through
New. York; $47,912 through the
Massachusetts District, $6,515
through West Coast Districts,
$1,530 across our Mexican border,
an the remainder through districts

Mr. A. Polet, Nome, Alaska.
Dear Sir:—We have studied tho Commercial business of Alas
ka as thorouglitly as possible from this distance, to see what
products it would bo avisable to pack of which wo have an
abundance, and yet hard to get io you in its natural state.
Wc are about the largest handlers of Poultry, Eggs a:.d But
ters west of the Rockies, and thero is no roason in our mind,
why we should not got in touch with yeu direct.
Meeting with a great deal of difficulty in securing refr'gatcr
space for dressed poultry, we hit on the novel idea of Canning
the fresh killed chickens.
Wo gather the live chickens at our Poultry and Egg buying
stations at Petaluma, and after being milk fed they are kil- j
led and dressed.
The chickens is then cut in four part3 and put in cans, and 1
cooked under a process which retains its fine fresh flavor. We
pack a complete half chicken in the 1 1-2 lbs. cans, and a ocm
plcto whole chicken in the 3 lbs. cans, bone and all.
We are also putting out a superior Chicken Soup with Rice,
which in our estimation, is above reproach.
Our prices are as follows:
CHICKEN. No. 1 1-2 lbs. cans, per dozen .$8.2t>, per can 75c.
CHICKEN SOUP WITH RICE. Per doz. $1.50, per can 15c.
