New Jersey, Sept. 9.
A towering fire started by iwn tremendous chemical explosions today swept eight warehouses along a 1,000-foot stretch of waterfront opposite New York City.
Six or seven Bremen were overcome by smoke battling the inferno which shot flames and smoke hundreds of feet into the

Officials were inclined to let the intense fire burn itself out rather than risk injury to some of the hundreds of firemen bat- tling the blaze,

THE heroism of Chief
Officer J. Fant, of the steamer Kumsang almost cost him his life on the voyage from Singapore to Hongkong, when the vessel arrived in port. The ship was slightly west of tho Maccclesfield Bank in the China Sea when a Chinese female deck
passenger jumped overboard.
Mr Font who had just finish- ed his breakfast, was the only European to see her jump.
He threw twu litebeits over- board and then unhesitatingly Icapt into the sea to rescue the woman. But no one saw him dive in until several minutes later a ship's officer happened to notice a small blob on the surface a long way astern,
He focussed it in his telescope and to his horror saw I was Mr Fant,
The chip turned around and rescued him but desplie a long zentch there was no sign of the woman.
It is interesting to recall that Chief Officer Fant was also the hero of an incident in May, 1932 when, fully clad, he dived into shark-intested waters to rescue tematc passenger who had Jumped
overboard from the steamer Hinsong.
As a result of his bravery on that occasion, Mr Fant was pre- sented with the bronze medal ond certificate of the Royal Humane Society by the Gaver- nor, Sir William Perl,
