you into habits of study and will
give you a foundation from which
you can get from books or special

progress in the trade.

Theodore Bauer and
W i f e who Owned

Trapped by Flames
WELL-KNOWN ~
Sold Home here Two
Years Ago— Couple
. Made Desperate Ef-
fort to Escape Fire
Theodore Bauer and his wife. for-
merly of Norwalk. and who owned,
up to two years ago. the house op-
posite the Nellie York place in
Cranbury. are dead today. Fire
which spread with explosive speed
through the upper floors of the Pet-
musllka Restaurant building at 50
East Fifticth street. New York city,
caused the death of the couple who
were trapped on the top floor. Mr.
and Mrs. Bauer owned the restau-
rant.
The fire was over so quickly that
none had thought of the possibility
of death until thc'tircmen "wetting
down" came across the two bodies
at the foot of a small iron stairway
leading to the roof from the fifth
floor-.i Apparently the couple had
tried to get through the heavily
bolted- door at the top of the stair-
way but. had been overcome by the
dense smoke.
Mr. Bauer. in addition to his “1“
acliuaintancc among the clientele of
his restaurant. was known through-
out the East. particularly among
musical people. ilc had scores of
friends in Norwalk. Attorney Ira
0. Gregory know him intimately.
During his residence in this coun-
try. Mr. Bauer held many positions.
lic had been secretary of the Boston
Opera company; had acted as man-
ager for Constantino. the tenor.
now dead. and had held a position
of importance with the Columbia
Grapllophone company. His wife
was formerly Miss Loulsc iiurt. of
Atlanta, Ga.
While making their home in Nor-
walk. Mr. and Mrs. Bancr wcnt
abroad spending considerable time
in Vienna. Upon their return. Mr.
Bauer told Attorney Gregory. dur-
ing a conversation. that he had been
extremely homesick away front the
United States.
"Although I was born in uda-
pest."' said Mr. Bauer. at {be late.
"I became so homesick from Amer-
ica that I simply had to return. It
doesnt seem. possible that. an adopt—
ed country could claim such a hold
on anyone. You cannot understand
how the Statue of Liberty appeared
to me when we nailed up the New
York harbor on our return."
About two years ago Mr.. Bauer
after making many improvements
upon his Cranbury home, which
was formerly known as the Youngs
place, disposed of it. going to New
York city to live.
The fire in the Petrousllka Res-
taurant building started about 7:30
o‘clock with not more than fifteen
persons in the building at the time.
Most of them were either in the
main dining room on the first floor
or were just removing their wraps
at the entrance. The flames first
appeared on the third floor in the
Gypsy oonl. fancifully decorated
to age a gypsy tent with tap-
cstri vcring the walls. The third
floor is used for dancing and Mr.
Bauer and his wife used the fourth
and fifth floors for living quarters.
Catherine Duffy. a. maid. was in
the Gypsy Boom when she was
startled by an explosion which she
declared later she thought was
caused by some lighting arrange-
ment in the rear of the room. Al-
most ilnlllcdiatcly. she said. a ball of
fire seemed to burst from the tent
and she had barely time to get out
of the room before“ was a mass of
flames. Silo rucedr down the stairs
with the warning of the names and
a cashier tuned‘ln the alarm.
While the nearest fire apparatus
was but a block away and last. no
time in getting there. the flames
had spread to the upper stories of
the building when the firemen ar-
rived. Tho hangings and decora-
tions seemed to make the best of
fodder for the fire.
The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Bauer
were discovered by Morris Straus.
a fireman. as he was making an in-
spection of the fifth floor. Much of
the clothing had been. burned. but
Bellcvue hospital, declared that he
was sure death had been caused by
summation and that if the couple
had had only a few- minutes more
they could have gotten through the
door to the roof. The door was do
his bolted and it was thought tbs.
they had reached the door. had
been ova-come as they tried to open
it. and had fallen back down the
iron stairway.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.—Cll-
maxing four days of acrimonious de-
bating and ten days of sensational
developments. the Senate yesterday
passed the “faint: resolution declar-
ing that the leasing of oil lands in

tion." and directing President Cool—

In addition to demanding that an
injunction be sought immediately
to stop further operations on the
Teapot Dome and Elk Hills oil re-
serves. the resolution authorized the
employment of special attorneys to
handle all of the litigation indepen—
dent of the Department of Justice.
A provision was inserted making
it necessary for the Senate to ap-
prove the selection of Silas 1i.
Strawn. of Chicago. and Thomas W.
Gregory. of Texas. already named by
the President to start proceedings
against Doheny and Sinclair.
The vote was unanimous.
As soon as the \Valsh resolution
was adopted. the Senate took up the
Robinson resolution demanding the
resignation of Secretary of the Navy

'An effort by President Coolidge to

with the chief executive. but they
left the W’hlte House declaring that
they would push the pending reso-

gues in the Senate were making a
sensational move designed to oust
Donby. ..
No sooner had the Senné met.
than Senator Trammell. mocrat
of..!‘lorida. introduced an amend-
ment to the Robinson resolution de-
claring it to be the "sense of the
Senate that the President should
immediately request the resignation
of the Secretary of the Navy."
For a moment it seemed there
would be an immediate vote. The
Republican side was stunned. Then
Senator Lodge. the Republican lead-
or. jumped tobls feet and raised an
objection which stopped the vote.
Lodge declared he favored the
Walsh resolution. which proposes
immediate cancellation of the leases
on the ground they were obtained
under indications of fraud and cor-
rupt”. but he would oppose the
Tramme‘ll amendment “with all my
power." He shouted: ~
“This is a fool amendment. It
is unconstitutional. because the Con-
stitution provides only one method
of removing Cabinet officers and
that is by impeachment.
“It is an attempt to force the
hands of the Executive to a duty
which rests solely with him. I shall
oppose it."

dict that Judge Thomas ordered the
