Gillett Gives Promise. St. Augustipe, Fla, March 16 (By Associated Press)—Speaker Gillett who is here as a member of President Harding's Florida vacation party an- nounced today he would confer with Chairman Fordney of the house ways and means committee in Washington Saturday on the parliamentary situa- tion brought about as a result of the expressed desire of certain republican leaders to bring the soldier bonus bill up in the house Monday under sus- pension of the rules. Chairman Ford- ney in Washington has said he will seek a conference with the speaker. Speaker Gillett expects to arrive in Washington on the special train with the president early Saturday morning and to see house republican leaders before going to Springfield, - Mass., where he will speak Sunday on the arms conference treaties. He appeared interested today when told the Wash- ington reports of the developments of a difference of opinlon among re- publican house leaders as to the method of bringing up the bonus bill. Will Give Adverse Ruling He has indicated that he will rule adversely on a motion to bring up the bonus legislation Monday under sus- pension of the rules. He asserts, however, that there is nothing to prevent the rules committee from bringing in a special rule under which the legislation would have precedence and could be brought up at any time the house desires. The speaker appeared undisturbed by the situation and left the impres- sion that he thought handling the matter through a special rule was the best procedure. He had already said that he thought the bonus bill a most important one and that the house should have timé to consider it and entertain amendments, if desired. N. H.

K< | INCENDIARISM SUSPECTED IN FIRE A fire which has all the appear- ances of being of incendiary origin partially destroyed a house at 61 Grove street at about 1115 o'clock this morning. Rags saturated with gaso- line were found in the building and the appearances of the blaze Itself showed that a substance besides mere wood was burning. Heard Explosion, Supernumerary Policeman Thomas Lee, who was doing duty on Grove street, had just passed Orange street when he heard a loud explosion be- hind him. He quickly ran back and saw the flare of a blaze in the rear of the brick block directly across the street from Orange street. He immediately turned in an alarm from the fire box situated at the cor- ner of Grove and Orange streets and then ran back to the building. When he arrived in the vard, policeman thinking of the people who might be sleeping in the house broke in three doors and made a thor- ough search of the rooms. Fire Spreads Quickly.

Curtis administration, and whose candidacy for the mayoralty nomina- tion was announced seyeral weeks ago has withdrawn from the contest and is now lined up with the George A. Quigley interests. o it is probable that Mr. Dehm will be an the speakers’ stand tonight when Mr. Quigley conducts his fifth ward rally in Skritulsky's hall on Broad street. If so, it will be Mr. Dehm's first pubioc declaration of his align- ment with Quigley in the present campaign. Announcement of Dehm's candidacy was not received with surprise. For months it had been reported that the former first ward alderman was seek- ing the mayoralty honor, and al- though his announcement followed that of Quigley, with whom he had been friendly previously, it was taken as a matter of course. Several days ago Mr. Dehm an- nounced that he was out of the con- test, but did not say whether he would throw his support to the Curtis or the Quigley camp. In the meantime he has been actively campaigning for the latter and it is understood is ready to take the stump in that candidate’s interests.

Little rivulets began to flow on the floor and each one was ablaze, making a \erllahle stream of fire.

Judge Bacon stated that should the | case be revived and Mrs. Churchill desire to have her husband remain in the hospital, another physician's cer- tificate, stating that he is insane, will be necessary to commit him again.
