Sprague, in the rear of 638 Quincv ave nue, bringing death to George J. Fritsch, 3i, oi 433 Kaiiroaa avenue, and in ury to Fred Deltzer, 33, of Golden avenue, North Scranton.

Superintendent of fires Peter J. Rosar announced yesterday that he will ask buperintendent of Police James Henshaw to assign detectives to co operate with the fire department officials in the probe. Deitzer will be one of the first witnesses to be questioned, and his story is expected to aid substantially In fixing the cause of the blaze. It is believed that the fire followed an explosion which developed when gasoline fumes flooded the room In the basement of the garage, where the heating plant is located. Fritsch was horribly burned about the head and face, while his clothes were scarcely scorched.

Deitzer was burned about the hands and face. Brother of Fireman Fritsch, a brother of Arthur Fritsch, a city fireman attached to Engine 6, was employed at the Sprague garage as an extra chauffeur. Deitzer is a truck driver employed by the Atlantic Refining company, and was engaged in refilling a gasoline tank of 300 gallon capacity. Fritsch was in the basement and when the tank was filled, he is believer to have shouted to Deitzer. The latter shut off the flow a moment later, but the fumes which accumulated In the basement were nrob ably ignited by the heat, and caused the blast.

Deitzner had left his truck and was on his way into the basement when the explosion occurred, and is i believed to have literally walked into ine names. Fire companies which responded to an alarm found little actual fire, But Charles E. Reese, of 1010 Olive street, who was on the floor above the garage, advised them that two men were caught in the blast. Deitzer was rushed to the Moses Taylor hosiptal, and a search was begun for Fritsch. Assistant Superintendent Edmund B.

Lewis found his body in the basement, and the position In which it rested indicated that he had attempted to, find a window. He had fallen over the rear bumper of an automobile, and died there. The flames spread to the Sprague home, and Mrs. Ida Sprague, an invalid, was carried from the house. Several automobiles in the garage were damaged by the flames.

Fritsch is survived by. his mother and tne following brothers and sisters Walter, Carl. William. Joseph, Edward, Arthur, Mrs. Leo Pistor and Mrs.

The commission, as Is Its practice, will meet in executive session at Harrisburg this afternoon, and it Is not unlikely that a decision in the water rate case will be made public following the conference. The company's petition for collection was argued at the. capital last Monday, una cnairman w.

u. a. Ainey indicated that the commission's ruling would be handed down early this week. While the belief is held In certain quarters that the commissioners will take the attitude that under the Public Service company law, they cannot prevent the company from collecting its new rates, Diners noia tne theory that the testimony and the cross examination thus far may be used by the commission as a basis for a decision as to whether or not the comnanv has shown the Increases to be justifiable. This point was stressed in the argument last week by City Solicitor C.

B. Little, who told members of the commission that the company's valuation testimony has been riddled under cross examination, and that the commission has enough evidence to warrant an order holding up the collections until the issue is finally determinedprobably next March.

DR. Republican Music Critic New faces now are appearing at the Sunday Community concerts at the Chamber of Commerce. Yesterday, Gerald Marc Stokes, who has been organist at the Church of the Nativity for more than a year, and who also is organ soloist at Comerford's West Side theater, was heard for the first time in a Scranton concert appearance. Mr. Stokes has had organ experience In Western New York and the middle western states, and has studied with such masters as Seth Clarke and Clarence Eddy.

His list yesterday included the "Prelude and Fugue in Major" (Bach), "Reverie1' (Bonnet), "Allegretto in Flat" (Wolstenholme), "Within a Chinese Garden" (Stoughton), "Praelu dium" (Jarnefelt Nevin), "A Southern Fantasy" (Hawke) and of Glory'' (Yon). Mr. Stokes impressed his audience with his sincerity as an organist, play ing the Bachhfugue with its de fined subject and its melodious and fluent treatment in quite a masterly A sound technique, and fine musicianship characterized his playing of Bach, and. this, of course, predicted a sufficient expressive quality for the succeeding, lighter selections. Thus, the "Reverie," a contemplative composition with a gracious melody: the "Allegretto" of Wolstenholme's.

a short, lively work after the severe manner of the English school, al though the composer has succeeded in making it more enjoyable than most English organ writers, displayed the organist's familiarity with the French and English composers. In the humorous "Praeludium" the repeated figures and the "basso osti nato" were treated in a musiclanly way, and its performance brought immediate Stoughton's' "Chinese Garden" has only an occasional Oriental mood, and the "Southern Fantasy" included "Old Folks at Home." "Kentucky Home," "Old Black Joe" and "Maryland." These familiar melodies were effec tively played and fully appreciated. Pietro Yon's "Hymn of Glory" is written in that composer's usually florid manner; its unison opening is imposing, and the soft responses follow in gracious chords, but the composer's traits soon became evident, rapid scales and many Intricate florid passages obscure the main theme, which in itself is not an impressive one. In spite of this, Mr. Stokes gave it an excellent performance, and there were demands for an encore.

Chorus Sings Prise Number The Scranton Ladies' chorus, national prize winners and conducted by Prof. David Jenkins, sang the prize number, "The Snow" (Edward Elgar), giving it an excellent rendition. There was almost a perfect ensemble in some of its passages, its chording was (Continued on Page Twenty one) Coal Shipments for November Increase Over 300,000 Tons in Excess Of Loadings for Same Month of 1927 Shipments of anthracite coal during the month of November, 1928, exceeded by 344,721 tons the shipments made during the corresponding period of 1927, statement of the Anthracite Bureau Information reveals. The total number of tons shipped last month was 5,654.541, as compared with 5,309,820 tons in November lat year. Compared with October, 1928, novemDer snipments ol this year show decrease of 963,715 This decrease, however, can be attributed largely to the observance of two holidays, Armistice day and Thanksgiving day, as well as an extensive idleness on election day.

During November, 1928; the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron company shipped the greatest amount anthracite, the total number of tons being 1,147,182. The Lehigh Valley was second with Glen Alden thiid with Hudson Coal company 'ourth with 740,993. The Pennsylvania company shipped 534,765 tons, and the Scranton Coal company, 158 074 tons. is located within the next few days, as The' sheriff and his assistants, who questioned Kudzinowski at Jersey City Friday, expect that within seventy two hours, they will be able to find Quinn's body. The confessed slayer has given them the names of four men who, according to his statement, buried the body, and if it is found, they will be prosecuted for having shielded Kudzinowski.

Hope to Quiz Men Today. The four men" will be quizzed today, it. is expected, and at the same time, the search for Quinn's body will be continued. If it is located and identified, steps towards the prosecution of the quartet will be taken by District Attorney Harold Scragg. Until Quinn's body is located and Identified, District Attorney Scragg said last night, no prosecution can be made of the men Kudzinowski involved in disposing of the body after the murder was committed.

As the case now stands the district attorney explained It is what is known in the legal world as corpus delicti, that is no crime with the prosecution at a standstill until the body Is recovered. Finding of the body as is expected by Sheriff Davis may result in a legal battle between Pennsylvania and New Jersey with Lackawanna county in the center of the fireworks. It may delay Kudzinowski's execution if he is found guilty of first degree" murder with papers flying from both governors on writs to stay the execution until Lackawanna county disposes of the prosecution of the four men whom Kudzinowski stated hid the crime from the authorities by remaining silent for the past four years and burying the body in a remote spot. The confessed slayer in reciting the tale of the Quinn murder to Sheriff Davis said he killed Quinn with a 'rock and laid the body on a ledge overlooking Rocky Glen with his head facing that body of water. After covering it with leaves he went to Stroudsburg, Kudzinowski "said, and later to Moscow.

Meanwhile he said he arranged with friends to bury the body. Volunteers Hunt Body. Yesterday close to 200 persons from all sections of the' county visited the woodland where the Quinn. body is' said to be bflred. These persons joined In voluntarily were unable to 1: tle the Kudzinowski' i 'ry of the burial of the body by fiiinds is being checked by Sheriff Davis, who expects lm portant developments in a lew days.

Authorities yesterday were inclined to the. belief that the body would have been discovered during the 1925 1926 anthracite strike it it were not buried deep in one of the numerous pot holes that dot that woodland. rThis opinion was voiced yesterday when it was found that hundreds of Greenwood residents were cutting coal in the outcroppings there during the strike and had covered practically every inch of outcrop in their labors. The authorities do not doubt that Kudzinowski murdered Quinn but believe that the body was buried in a deep depression" and covered over: with earth and rocks.
