Up to the hour of sailing the duke de- olined to deny or afirm the reported engagement, but his demeanor was regarded by the reporters who gath- ered at the steamship pier as not that of a man who had failed in an im- portant mission. The duke was registered on the ship’s passenger list as Luigi Sarto. He boarded the steamer early and was accompanied to the dock by an at- tache of the Itallan legation at Wash- ington and by a secret service man. To the reporters who were gathered on the dock he sald: “f am very sorry that I have no in- terview to give out, but come and see me at 8 o'clock.” “But the ship sails at that hour,” said one of the newspaper men. “Yes, I know it. I stayed up late to escape this. Everything is all right. Miss Blkins’ family has refrained from making any public statement and an erroneous construction has been placed upon their silence.” It i3 understood that the duke will disembark at Liverpool and hasten to Rome. - SUBSIDY BILL, PASSED.

ALL THE INMATES ESCAPE Institution Was the First in the Coun- try to Be Chartered Solely for Wo- men and Had an Enroliment of About Three Hundred. St. Louis, March 23.—Forest Park university, a private school for young women, having an enrollment of 300 students from all parts of the coun- try, has been destroyed by fire. All persons in the building escaped in safoty. Phe four-story building, constructed f dtope and wood, was located in oénter of a seven-acre plot of und immediately south of Forest , in the western limits of the city. The fire was discovered in the upper portion of the south wing. Instantly all those in the building filed out of the various exits and all escaped in safety to the lawn. There was no time for the saving of belongings of the young women students and they lost everything. "A general alarm was turned in, call- h:g out the entire city fire department, Hit owing to the remote location of the institution the fire had gained tre- mendous headway before any ap- paratus arrived. The flames swept rapidly through the upper portion of the building and then downward and within an hour the building was in ruins. It is believed the fire started from a defective flue. No Fire Escapes on Building. The building was not equipped with fire escapes and the young women ofowded through the corridors, strug- gling with one another in thelr efforts to gain the open air, but none was in- jured. Many were in the dormitory in the middie of the building, near ‘where the fire started. The institution was founded as Kirk- wood seminary, in the suburban vil- lage of Kirkwood, in 1861 by Mrs. Anna Sneed Cairns, who on Thursday celebrated her sixty-seventh birthday anniversary. In 1891 it was incorporated and re- moved to St. Louis as Forest Park university and occupied the imposing stone structure that had been erected south of Forest Park. Forest Park university was the first university to be chartered solely for women in the United States. The faculty, of which Mrs, Cairns is president, includes more than twenty teachers and the university speclalized on music, art and elocution. ALIA TO HANG IN JULY.
