The other coupt was based on testimony of Hareld V. Owens, seeretary and treasurer of the Dale Engineering company of Utica, that in the same month he had sent a check for $400 to MclLean as a cam- paign eceontribution fer his eerpora- tion. E No Warrant for McLean. The new indictment against Fowler was based en Owens' testimeny that Fowler had solicited him for the con- tribution.

Boston, Dec, 4.—The grand jury be= gan taking testimony today to de- termine whether or not an indictment shall be returned for criminal re sibility in connection with the 1 28 lives by the fire which burned the Arcadia hotel, a South End lodging house, yesterday morning, A few hours after the fire was ex- tinguished the jury men inspected the ruins of the building under the direc- tion of District Attorney bh G. Pel- letier, and today they heard the stories of survivors and others. Joseph G. Lyons, proprietor of the house, was one of the witness Mr. Lyo s said that he believed set. James Walsh, might was in charge: James W. S day clerk, and August Mon- aghan, manager and inspector of the Lyons chain of lodging hous in east- s, also testified. Warren Crowell, a boy whose lack of funds kept him out of a bed in the lodging house and who slept in- stead in the office, was the last wit- ness called. It was he who first gave the cry of “Fire!” Crowell was ques- tioned as to whether the mnight cler and night watchman were at their posts in the office when the fire start- ed. The inquiry will be resumed next Monday. Only ten of the fire victims had been identified tonight.

Washingfon, Dec. 4—Adoption of a new constitution and election of offi- cers occupied today's sessioms of the National American Woman Suffrage | association, now in forty-fifth annual convention here. Many hours of dis- cussion preceded the final vote on the constitution. While the system of government does not place the finances of the as- sociation entirely on a budget basis, to which there has been vigorous ob- Jjection, a large portion of the momey needed will be raised in accordance with a budget adopted in advance each year. When it was announced at the afternoon session that $11,850 would have to be provided in pledges to eom- plete the total of $23,625 previously adopted for the budget, it took less than an hour to secure the sum. Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont of New York made an effort to have the headquar- ters of the association moved from New York to this city. The motion was tabled by a large majority with- out discussion. Some of the delegates declared later that Mrs. Belmont de- sired to see the organization assume a more militant attitude and that she believed this might be done if head- = ap- | quarters were moved to Washington, to Governor Glynn in |ypere the congressional union is lo- cated.

Everett P, to Washington, Dec. 4.—Women op- posed to equal suffrage had their in- ning today before the house committee on rules to protest against the reso- | ion championed by the women suf- | which would create a suf- £ nding committee in the house representatives. Scores of women from various parts of the country, marshalled by Mrs. Ar- thur Dodge of New York, appealed to the committee not to grant the suf- fragists’ plea. Tomeorrow the suf- fragists will be given an opportunity to answer the attack, Mrs. Catherine Waugh McCulloch of Chicago having been' chosen to sum up the case, Though the anti-suffrage women oc- cupied most of the day, their argu- ment was closed by a man, Everett P. Wheeler of New York representing the Man Suffrage association, who sounded a battle cry to the suffragists, Holding aloft a picture of Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the Amer- ican National Association for Woman Suffrage, Mr. Wheeler said: “When I saw this person here yes- terday shake her clenched fist and de- clare “We demand our rights’ I said to myseif, ‘Clenched fists mean fight.
