TWENTY ARE INJURED Many Other Firemen Narrowly Escape Death at Chicago, FORTY-MILE GALE BLOWING Burning Embers Scattered for Blocks in the Vicinity of the Conflagration, Endangering the Grand Pacific Ho: tel and Other Big Structures. Chicago, Jan. 28.—More than a score of firemen were hurt and as many more escaped injuries or death after thrilling experiences in a fire which destroyed the Mayer building, a seven- story brick building, and the Hotel Florence. The loss, it is believed, will amount to $500,000. Fanned by a forty-mile gale the fire scattered burning embers about the southern portion of the loop distriet, endangering a score of structures. Twenty guests at the hotel, which was a four-story structure, were roused from their beds by policemen and firemen. All of the inmates are be- lieved to have escaped. & & Adjoining the burning structure on the east is the partially completed six- teen-story building of the Corn Ex- change National bank. The new sky- scraper was given a severe test, but with the exception of some temporary woodwork resisted the flames success- fully. Two members of the fire de- partment were struck by boards which fell from a burning scaffolding on the fifteenth floor of the bank building and seriously injured. The wind drove the flames directly against the bank structure, which formed a complete barrier to the spread of the fire, but at the same Ume acted as a chimney to carry burning brands,parks and embers Hundreds of Feet Into the Air. During the fire a cascade of sparks poured upon the Rookery building and upon the board of trade, Grand Pacific hotel, Illinois Trust and Savings bank, Western Union, Home Insur- ance and other big structures. Some of these buildings were erected so long ago that their fireproof qualities are a matter of doubt and detachments of firemen were sent out to keep watch upon them. The fire started in the rear of the second story of the Hotel Florence. Before they were discovered they gained considerable headway and shortly after the firemen arrived the gecond and third floors and a portion of the rear wall fell. A six-story build- ing adjoining the hotel on the west caught fire and was partly gutted. It was occupied by six printing and two tailoring concerns, most of which suf- fered heavy damage. In three of the printing offices night shifts of em- ployes "were at work and these men were driven to the street so hurriedly that many were forced to face the blizzard clad in the sleeveless gar- ments of the stereotyping room. Many of the guests of the hotel were also scantily clad when they reached the street. The refugees were cared for by the police. PORTLAND AGAIN SCORCHED Maine Metropolis Suffers Another Dis- astrous Fire. Portland, Me., Jan. 28.—Fire which several times threatened to wipe out the business district of this city and which caused damage estimated at over $900,000 was kept confined to the block in which it started after al- most ten hours’ fighting by Portland’s firemen, aided by men and apparatus from several outside cities. The fire started in the wholesale dry goods house of Milliken, Cousens & Co. and it was in their half of the building th#t the greater part of the loss was sustained. Later, when the fire was thought to be under control, the other half of the building, occupied by A. F. Cox & Sons, was invaded by the flames, which had made their way through the roof and a party wall simultane- ously and the $250,000 stock of boots and shoes was ruined. A remarkable feature of the fire was the entire absence of casualties. One narrow escape is recorded, which, had sufficient warning not been given, might have resulted seriously for some eight or ten men. The crew of engine No. 5 were standing beneath a wall on the Market street side of the burned block when an explosion was heard, followed by the fall of the wall. The explosion had warned the men, however, and all were out of the way when the debris fell. The Parker-Thomasco company sus- tained loss by water and smoke esti- mated at $100,000 and the Cook, Ev- erath & Pennell company, wholesale druggists; F. O. Bailey & Co., car- riages; Lewls & Co., wholesale cloth | rooms of ; A, H. Berry & Co., boots an? shoes; M. A. Waterhouse & Co.. har ware dealers, and Russ, Ingalls, wholesale dry goods idcu.ers, fointly suffered losses aggregating $100,000. The fire assumed such- pro- portions that Mayor Leighton called for help from ten nearby cities. ES Senate’s Membership Complete. ‘Washington, Jan. 28.—George P. Wetmore took the oath of office as United States senator from Rhode Isl- and for tbe term ending March 4, 1913. Mr. Wetmore's entrance into the senate increased the actual mem- bership of that body to ninety-two for the first time in the history of the country. . BRYAN HOLDS RECEPTION Denies Being in Washington to Dis- cuss His Candidacy. Washington, Jan. 28—W. J. Bryan held an impromptu reception in the the house committee on ways and means. where a number of Democratic representatives and many outsiders shook him by the hand and chatted with him. Asked by some one to name his choice for a running mate in the event of his nomination at Denver Mr. Bryan laughingly replied: “I shan’t tell. That is too bold a question.” To the newspaper men he said: “You may say that my coming to Washington was not to consult any man or set of men as to whether or not I ought to be a candidate for the nomination. I have no Wyut that ques- tion to any man, nor shall I. The peo- ple, not individuals, have the sole right to decide that point. I am not here to solicit support for myself as a possible presidential candidate. I never solicit individual support. I never ask any man to vote for me. In the past when I wes before the people as a candidate my efforts to obtain votes have been confined to statements of my views.” Asked about the story published in some quarters that former United States Senator Jones, Oliver H. P. Belmont and others came to him a day or so ago and told him he was not the logical candidate for the Dem- ocratic nomination, urged him not to run and promised to oppose him if their advice should be disregarded Mr. Bryan said: “There is not a shred of truth in that story. No one has advised me not to be a candidate. I saw Senator Jones and we did talk politics, but nothing of the sort reported occurred.” MEETS RAILROAD OFFIGIALS President Consulted Regarding Feature of Rate Law. ‘Washington, Jan. 28.—The operat- ing vice presidents of many of the large railroads of the country were re- ceived by President Roosevelt and presented a request that in executing what is known as the commodity amendment of the railroad rate law but one case be brought against the railroads by the government, this case to be finally disposed of by the su- preme court of the United States. This, if agreed to by the government, would mean that the roads owning coal producing properties would not sell them by May 1 next, as required by the law, but could operate them as heretofore until the disposal of the test case. The law in question is re- garded by the roads as unconstitu- tional in that it requires the disposal of property at what would be neces- sarily a sacrifice. The law also is questionad on other grounds. The president referred the railroad men to the interstate commerce com- mission, where, it is understood, the question will be fully discussed and a report made to the president as to the legal possibility of carrying out the suggestion made. Those who participated in the. con- ference beside the president were C. R. Gray of the Frisco road, who acted as chairman of the conferees on the part of thé railroads; 1. G. Rawn, Illi- nois Central; E. G. Buckland, New, York, New Haven and Hartford; H. U. Mudge, Rock Island; D. Willard, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy; W. A. Garret, Seaboard Air Line; C. E. Schaff, New York Central; W. A. Gard- ner, Chicago and Northwestern; C. H. Ackerl, Southern, and G. L. Potter, Baltimore and Ohio. CALLS IT DISCOURTEOUS. German Paper Discusses Speech of M. Delcasse. Berlin, Jan. 28.—The reappearance on the scene of international polities of M. Delcasse, who retired from the post of minister of foreign affairs for France in the summer of 1905 be- cause of the crisis which had arisen in connection with the Moroccan sit- nation, is the subject of an inspired article in the Cologne Gazette, which says: “Whether or not the present is a suitable moment for France to bring up old controversies is a question for the French government and people to decide. We are of the contrary opin- fon. The Moroccan question cannot yet be regarded from a historical standpoint; it should be considered rather as a center of the liveliest.in- terest and it may yet lead to discus- sion between France and Germany which will not be made easier by a leading politician, such as M. Del- casse, striking Chauvinistic notes amid the applause of the chamber. The fact that M. Delcasse’s declara- tion regarding Morocco in the cham- ber of deputies last week called forth applause from a large section of the house confirms our view that clever Chauvinism always impresses a French audience. We must, under these circumstances, maintain the same calmness as formerly when more violent discourtesies were extended fo us.” Seven Persons Burned to Death. Richmond, Va., Jan. 28.—By the col- lapse of the house of Anthony Frank- Iin, a negro of Bedford City, the build- ing was fired and destroyed and his whole family, consisting of himself, wife and five children, were burned to death. LAWHELDREPUGNANT Employes May Be Discharged for Belonging to Labor Unions. OPINION BY JUDGE HARLAN Federal Supreme Court Decides Rail- roads Have Right to Dismiss Union Men as Such Despite Congressional Prohibition. ‘Washington, Jan. 28.—The constitu- tionality of the act of congress of June 1, 1898, prohibiting railroad companies engaged in interstate commerce from discriminating against members of labor organizations in the matter of employment, was called into question by the case of William Adair vs. the United States, which was decided by the supreme court of the United States favorable to Adair. The opin- ion was by Justice Harlan and held the law to be repugnant to the Con- stitution. The court held that Adair, as mas- ter mechanic of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company, had a right to discharge an employe be- cause he was a member of a labor or- ganization just as it was the em- ploye’s right to quit such employment because of his membership in such Such a course, the de- organization. i JUSTICE HARLAN. cision added, might be unwise, but, regarded as a mere matter of right, there could be no doubt. Congress could not, under the Constitution, au- thorize a violation of contracts under the guise of protecting interstate commerce. Justice McKenna delivered a dis- senting opinien favorable to. the faw, in which he said the court’s decision proceeds along very narrow lines. The case came to the supreme court on a writ of error from the United States district court for the Bastern district of Kentucky. Adair is the master mechanic of the Louisville and Nashville road and he was proceeded against on the charge of threatening to discharge from the employ of the company a locomotive engineer named Coppage because the latter was a member of a labor union. The act of 1898, which was one of the results of the great Chicago strike, was invoked for Coppage’s protection and the dis- trict court fined Adair $100. The con- stitutionality of the act was strenu- ously attacked in the district court by the railroad attorneys and when the decision was announced they prompt- 1y brought the case to the supreme court with the result that the decision of the lower court was reversed. In his decisien Justice Harlan held it was Adair’s right to serve his em- ployer as best he could so long as he did nothing forbidden by law as con- trary to the public welfare. DEPOSITCRS WILL BE- PAID Liquidation of Big New York Bank Is Under Way. - New York, Jan. 28.—Liquidation of the National Bank of North America has begun. Charles A. Hanna, na- tional bank examiner of this district, who was appointed receiver, was in conference with Comptroller Ridgely, William F. Havemeyer, president of the bank, and some of the bank’s legal advisers. No authoritative statement was issued by any of the officials, but the opinion was expressed that the bank’s depositors will be paid in full within sixty days. The closing of the bank occasioned little surprise in financial circles and seemed (o have only a slightly ad- verse stock market influence. A small crowd was gathered at the’ doors of the instilution all merning, but there was an abhsence of the excitement which marked the disturbance in the financial district last October and No- vember. At the main entrance was a notice stating that the institution has been closed by order of Comptroller Ridgely. There were other notices stating that various other banks would nccept and pay drafts on the National Bank of North America made by its out of town correspondents. GREAT SECRECY MAINTAINED Mrs. Eddy Removed From Concord, N. H., to Brookline, Mass. Roston, Jan. 28.—Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, head and founder of the Christian Science church, under a heavy guard and accompanied with the utmost secrecy, was removed by special train, with ell her household sttendants, from Pleasant View in Concord, N. H., where she has lived for ninetcen years, to a new house 4n the fashionable Chestnut hill section of Brookline. The coming was unheralded and snly a few of the leaders of the Chris- tian Science church had been aware of the contemplated change. Even the train crew were commanded to main- tain absolute secrecy as to the trip they were to make and the best men in the service of the road were as- signed to the duty. TR et s > TE 1D 10 O 1 AT TP AR B Al Treceded by a pilot engine to clear the way the special train of three cars left Concord and proceeded over three railroads by a circuitous route to the Chestnut Hill station on the Bosten and_Albany road. Arriving in Brookline the parfy was taken to the late R. Ashton Lawrence estate, one of the most beautiful in all Brookline, even before $100,000 had been spent in the last four months to remodel it, and here Mrs. Eddy was settled in her new home, Girl Dead From Burns.

Harrisburg, Pa., Jan. 28—Not since the trial of United States Senator M. S. Quay ten years ago for conspiracy to wreck a Philadelphia bank has there been such interest in a trial as has been manifested {hroughout Penn- sylvania in the proceedings begun against the men charged with con- spiracy to loot the state treasury in connection with the construction and furnishing of the big state capitol building. The trial of the alleged con- spirators is being conducted in the dingy, old fashioned county court- house and its resources have been stretched to the limit to accommodate the defendants, attorneys and news- paper correspondents. The first of the five conspiracy cases listed for trial involves payments of §49,417.80 for sofas, tables and clothes trees. The items were paid for by the state at the rate of $18.40 “per foot.” The commonwealth alleges that frauds to the amount of $19,- 308.40 were perpctrated. The defend- ants in these five cases are Chief Con- tractor John H. Sanderson and Archi- tect Joseph M. Huston of Philadelphia, former Auditor General William P. Snyder of Spring City, former State Treasurer Willlam L. Mathues of Media and James M. Shumaker of Johnstown, former superintendent of greunds and buildings. Neither Con- gressman H. Burd Cassel of the Penn- sylvania Construetion company nor the remaining eight defendants in the prosecutions figure in these conspiracy cases. LOSS OF LIFE REPORTED. Several Barges Wrecked During At- lantic Coast Storm. Philadelphia, Jan. 28.—Belated re- ports to the Maritime Exchange bring information of mishaps to barges, with the probable drowning of eleven persons off the New Jersey coast dur- ing last week’s storm. The barge Gwennie, from Norfolk for New Bed- ford, is missing and it is believed she foundered and that her crew of five went down with her. The tug M. E. Scully reported that on Friday while trying to make the Delaware breakwater with the barges White Band and ‘New Jersey a hawser parted and the barges drifted away in the heavy sea. Later the New Jersey was picked up with her crew safe, but the White Band was found sunk about ten miles off the New Jersey coast. The captain of the tug reports that the crew of four men, with two wo- men, are doubtless drowned. Many Industries Resume. Pottsville, Pa., Jan. 28—Two more big open hearth furnaces resumed work here, while the 19-inch and 28- inch rolling mlll departments at the Eastern Steel company’s mills also started up full handed. Thirty-eight collieries of the Reading Coal and Iron company, employing 30,000 men, who have been idle for some time, also went to work, while 1,000 men at the same company’s repair shops, resumed on reduced hours. Church Stands by a Member. Superior, Wis.,, Jan. 28.—Having been summoned to church on an urgent request by the pastor, Rev. G. H. Young, the members of the First Bap- tist church were called upon by Mr. Young to go on record as to whether they believed in the integrity of H. P. Ernsberger, a defendant in the Wood case at St. Paul and a member and officer of the church here. Practically the entire membership of the church arose in response to the call. Minneapolis Grain Man Dead. Minneapolis, Jan. 28.—J. E. Gage, prominent grain man, member of the firm of Andrews & Gage, is dead at his home in this city after an illness of one week. Heart disease was the cause of death. Mr. Gage has long been a prominent member of the Min- neapolis chamber of commerce. He has been associated with the Andrews & Gage company for fourteen years. Jack Tar at a Christening. A sailor went up to the font to have his baby baptized. Sailors as a class claim little stock in babies, and natu- rally enough this one presented the in- fant feet foremost. “The other way,” said the minister, and accordingly Jack turned the infant upside down. “Excuse me,” said the clergyman, “I mean the other way.” So back came the embryo foretopman to the first po- sition, to the discouragement of every- body. “Wind it, Jack,” said the nautical assistant, and with an “Aye, aye, sir.” Jack promptly turned the baby-end for end, and it was duly christened head first.—“On a Man-of-war.” Lovers’ purses are tied with cob- webs.—Italian Proverb.

TRIAL NEARS THE EAD Thaw Case Will Be in Hands of Jury in a Short Time, REBUTTAL WILL BE BRIEF District Attorney Jerome Expects to and Arguments of Counsel Will Oc- cupy Same Length of Time. New York, Jan. 28.—The defense in the Thaw case completed the intro- duction of all'its testimony and short- 1y before the noon recess Mr. Little- ton, chief counsel for the defendant, _prepared hypothetical question to the three alienists engaged to testify in Harry Thaw’s behalf. The question covered all the testimony in the case and before being read had been sub- mitted to District Atforney Jerome for any objection the prosecution had to offer. Only slight changes resulted. As the testimony in the present hear- ing has differed largely from that of the first trial so the hypethetical question differed from the ome pro- pounded last year by Mr.‘Delmas. The evidence as to irrational acts or man- homicide, was given precedence over every other phase of the testimony. Four witnesses from England and France, three physicians and a nurse, | testified to the irrational actions of the defendant while he was under their care in London and Paris. It is said that the case will go to the jury in two days. The defense has about concluded. The prosecu- tion will occupy but a day of rebuttal and arguments will be finished in an- other day. Justice Dowling’s charge + to the jury will be brief. WEDS AUSTRIAN COUNT. Marriage of Gladys Vanderbilt Takes Place in New York City.

At one end of the long room | an altar was placed under a bower of bending palm trees, the tops of which came together forming an arch under which the bridal party proceeded to the altar. About the trunks of the palms were twined thousands ot { orchids. Miss Vanderbilt was accompanied to the altar by her elder brother, Cor nelius Vanderbilt, and the count was accompanied by his best man, Count Anton Sigray. The wedding ceremony was performed by Monsignor AL T, Lavelle, rector of St. Patrick’s cathe dral, wearing purple silk vestments and lace cope. Rev. John J. Byrne.

M'DONALD ON' TRIAL to the Jury. Chicago, Jan. 28.—Assistant State’s Attorney Day made the opening state- | ment in the trial of Mrs. Dora McDon- ald, accused of the murder of Webster | 8. Guerin. He denounced the rela- tions existing between them in severe terms, declaring that they were com- menced at the instance of Mrs. Mec- | Donald when she was thirty-one years | of age and Guerin sixteen. Her atten- E tions to the young man, declared the assistant- state’s attorney, compelled Guerin to abandon a business in which he had embarked soon after leaving school. Mrs. McDonald would call for him and keep him away from the stere for two to three days at a time. Tater, when Guerin embarked in the | pleture business, it was declared by | Mr. Day.
