PRISON MILL FIRE IS QUICKLY CURBED Ohio Penitentiary “Bad Boys” Hoot and Jeer—120 Convicts Marched to Safety. By the Associated Press. COLUMBUS, Ohio, October 3.— Hoots and jeers from Ohio Peniten- tiary's “bad boy” company marked the only disturbance during a short-lived but threatening fire in a prison mill today. Thirty minutes after the blaze broke out in an old three-story brick build- ing, Columbus firemen had it under control. About 120 prisoners were marched to safety from a third-floor dormitory, The hoots and jeers came from the “White City”- cell block upon arrival of the first of fire companies sum- moned by two alarms. Prison officials regard those in “White City” as the police and the suspects. The dead included ,Luis Garcia Quibus, radical Leftist leader, who po- lice sought for questioning in the dynamiting September 20 of the El Pais newspaper plant in which five persons lost their lives. Other dead suspects were identified as Miguel Cruz and Pedro Martinez Orta, formerly a lieutenant in the army, while Policeman Felipe Lastra died from wounds. Two other police- men were wounded slightly. Police said the battle started when they went to a house in the Santos Suarez suburb of Havana on a tip that Garcia Quibus was hiding there.

Loomis, Progressive nom- inee for attorney general, speaking in Manitowoc yesterday, charged that the last Democratic Governor, Schmede- man, “sacrificed the schools of Wis- consin on the burning altar of a mis- conceived conception of governmental economy.” Schmedeman was elected Governor of the State in the Roosevelt landslide of 1932, when the peopls went hell bent for anything Demo- cratic in their desire to get away from the depression-smeared Republicans. In that same year Gov. La Follette had been defeated in the Republican primary for renomination, and the La Follette Progressives threw their votes in large numbers to Schmede- man in order to bring about defeat of Walter Kohler, the “bath tub king.” whom the “Stalwart” Republicans had nominated over La Follette.

A reported tendency on the part of Great Britain, Belgium and Italy not to allow an agreement among the Locarno powers to be endangered by the Franco-Russian pact, to which Germany has objected. Premier Leon Blum of France wes reliably reported today to have told Maxim Litvinoff, Russian foreign commissar, the pact cannot be inter- preted as a menace to Germany. It was reported in League circles that Litvinoff accused France of aban~ doning Russia, to which Blum was said to have replied that the pact was purely an instrument of mutual assistance, functioning if either was the victim of an unprovoked attack. In his defense of the Madrid gov- ernment, Ossorio-Gallardo told the Assembly it is legitimate because, he not know” if a court appeal would result in victory, but he added he was prepared to serve as counsel to the public, whether the result be “win, lose or draw.” The federations'’s action on the tax matters came as a direct result of the numerous suggestions for new or in- creased taxes which have been made by the Commissioners or their assis- tants recently as they reviewed the crucial financial problem now facing them. $1,000,000 Deficit Likely. ‘The fact the District probably will reach the end of the present fiscal year with a deficit of approximately $1,000,000 was the foundation for various proposed new or higher taxes.

The crowd, smashing the previous world series record that was made in 1926 when the Cardinals played tha Yanks in the Bronx Stadium, paid $235,108 to see this third game and they got their money's worth but most of it was in pathos. No pitcher, not even Hubbell could do a greater job than Pits did today. The decisive blow, puny and lucky- tinged, was in sharp contrast to the swift, sharp thrusts that had sent the two teams, fighting tooth and nail, into the fatal inning in a 1-to-1 dead- lock. Early enough in the game w» create fear and hope of another slaughter such as that on Friday, Lou Gehrig gave the Yankees a flying start by ramming a tremendous home run into the new center fleld bleachers. The wallop came at the start of the second inning, after Fitzsimmons had retired the Yanks one-two-three in the opening frame. Gehrig’s powerful wrists sent a knuckle bail roaring on a line and Yankee rooters gleefully sat back to watch more fireworks. Fits was just another Glant pitcher. He couldn’t squelch the dynamite in the Yankee bats. Fitz Continues Miserly. But he did. In the third inning he set them dqwn, 1-2-3 again. Two of the hitters, Lazzeri and Cros< etti, whiffed. In the third inning with one out, Joe Di Maggio lined a hit to center and made two bases when Ripple threw poorly back to the infleld.
