Rochester, Monroe, NY Democrat & Chronicle Nov 9, 1922 Fireman Is Injured When Ill-Fated Truck Crashes Into Wall of Fire House Ladderman Henry FOX, 41 years old, of No. 1,409 Clinton avenue north, member of Truck 10, was injured seriously last night when the truck swerved into the side of the Exchange street fire house as it was turning out in answer to an alarm of fire in South avenue. FOX, who was on the running board was pinned between the building and the heavy machine when the tiller was wrenched from the hands of the tillerman, causing him to lose control. When it was discovered the ladderman was injured, the driver, Frank DOYLE, brought the machine to a stop and FOX was carried into the fire house and made as comfortable as possible until the ambulance from Highland Hospital took him to that institution. At the hospital late last night it was said that FOX was suffering from a broken pelvis bone, crushed shoulder and numerous cuts and bruises. His injuries are not considered dangerous. The accident is the second that the truck has figured in with the last ten days. On the night of October 20th, while responding to an alarm of fire in Violetta street, the truck threw a tire while crossing the bridge over the Pennsylvania railroad tracks in Exchange street. Tillerman Edward GOMMENGINGER and Ladderman Thomas SULLIVAN received injuries which caused their death. Three other firemen, on the truck at the time, were hurt seriously. After the accident last night Commissioner of Public Safety Harry J. BAREHAM visited the firehouse and questioned the crew. The direct cause is said to be a wooden block which was lying on the floor in direct line with the wheel. When the wheel struck the block the wheel was wrenched from the hands of Emmet GONNAUGHTON, at the tiller, and the truck brushed against the side of the building. Battalion Chief JAYNES also conducted an investigation and his findings were the same as those of Commissioner BAREHAM. The injured man was left in care of other firemen and patrolmen from the first precinct station across the street, pending the arrival of the ambulance and the truck continued to the fire, which was of little consequence. A room on the first floor of the Osburn House, in an unknown manner and an alarm was turned in. Employees fought the blaze with hand extinguishers. Guests of the hotel were at dinner and few knew that any fire had been discovered. Milton ROBLEE, proprietor, declared the loss to be small as nothing of value was in the room. * Grand Jury To Hear Pickpocketing Charge Colored Man Charged With Taking Purse from Engineer Waives Examination After a two-hour examination in City Court yesterday afternoon, Bernard B.

The arrest was made by Charles G. PEASE, lieutenant of Police for the New York Central, who lives in Rochester, assisted by Detectives SHARP and DOCKSTATER of the Rochester police. These three with the complainant, appeared against KNIGHT. * LAUDS BIBLE LEARNING Minister at Gospel Center Says It Surpasses College Course "A knowledge of the Bible without a college course is more valuable than a college education without the Bible," said Rev. George McNEELY, pastor of Elizabeth Baptist Church, Newark, N. J., last evening at the Gospel Center. "I say this while I thoroughly believe in a university education for men and women. Everyone who has a thorough knowledge of the Bible may truly be called educated and no other learning or culture, no matter how extensive or elegant, can form a proper substitute." Mr. McNEELY also will speak to-night and to-morrow night at 7:45 o'clock at the Gospel Center. At the meeting last night there was special music under direction of Rev. Arthur G. SLAGHT, superintendent of Gospel Center, and Rev. Ralph E.

A. O'DONELL, and Major John P. BUDD, regular army officers in charge of the development of the Organized Reserve in Rochester and Vicinity. After describing the present military polley of the United States, they pointed out the difficulties of the regular army in carrying that policy into effect, because of the failure of Congress to grant adequate appropriations. An appeal was made to members of the club to use their influence in working for larger appropriations. Chester GRIFFITH was chairman of this meeting. * BURNING OF BATAVIA HONOR ROLL OPPOSED Sons of American Revolution Claim Sentiment Against Plan Batavia, Nov. 8 - The plan of the Glenn S. Loomis Post, American Legion, the burning of the honor roll of war veterans at special exercises in Austin park on Saturday, November 11th, is opposed by Genesee Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution. They consider the board of great historical value and a record which will be much more appreciated in the future than at the present time. They claim that a canvass has been made of the business men and of many World War veterans and that they only found one person in favor of burning the memorial. They claim that public opinion favors the removal of the board from its present site in the rear of the Court House to some permanent site where it can be preserved. A committee was appointed by the chapter to take the matter up with members of the legion post with the intention of saving from destruction the board. * SPLITTING IN SENECA Official Figures Reveal Cutting By Republicans Voters Waterloo, Nov. 8 - Nathan L. MILLER carried Seneca County for governor by 1,666 over Alfred E. SMITH, according to official returns compiled from figures supplied by chairmen of each of the 28 election districts. SMITH'S showing in the face of a heavy Republican vote is excelled only by that of Maynard J. FINTON, Democratic candidate for member of assembly, against George A. DOBSON, Republican. DOBSON carried the county by 1,315. The majority of 2,718 for William J. MAIER, Republican, for comptroller, was the largest of any candidate. MAIER'S complimentary vote in his home county was almost two to every one for FLEMING. Split tickets were unusually numerous, particularly in the rural sections. This is especially true in the second, fourth and fifth districts of Romulus, where SMITH received more votes than the Republican candidates, who carried the districts. Less than 9,000 votes were cast in the county, with an registration of 13,488. * INQUEST ON GIRL KILLED BY WAGON HELD AT ROMULUS Ovid, Nov. 8 - The testimony of several witnesses was taken by Coroner E.

One wheel of the wagon ran over the child's head, crushing it and causing death half an hour later. The accident happened in front of the home of John McKENNA in Orchard street. Mr. SMITH was driving through the street on his way to the evaporator, the testimony showed, when three children climbed onto the wagon after apples. Losing her hold, the McDONALD girl fell beneath the wheel. Mr. SMITH stopped the team and carried the child into the home of Mr. McKENNA. Dr. COLE and Dr. BOGARDUS were summoned. The child died before the arrival of the physician. This is the second child Mr. and Mrs. McDONALD have lost through accidents, one girl being drowned a few months ago.
