The remainder crowded in the hallways and up agalnst the doors, making it mpossible for thoss in front to open the doors and as a result over 150 of the children perished in the flames. Mr. Flemming, the story goes, was a witness of the catastrophe, and then and there decided to devote his life to fighting fires through fire prevention, Ha later became fire marshal for the state ot Ohfo holding that office for five yvears after which he was made superintend- ent of conservation and fire prevention by the national board of fire underwrit- ers, Mr. Flemming' has lectured on fire prevention n many cities and towns throughout the country.

Upon motion of Comptrolier Pissell, it was voted to take $50,000 from this reserve fund to tide over the rellef work until the next interest pay- ment s _due from the 32,500,000 state fund in May. The action was not taken, however, until the comptrolier had no- tifled Treasurer Butterworth of the Le- glon in open meating that hereafter he would require weekly statements show- ing how it was proposed to spend the money, before instaliments of the fund were turned over to. Butterworth. Treasurer Butterworth protested that it would 4isarrange his system, but was Informed by the comptroller 'that the law authorized him to requirs such statements as he deemed necessary be- fore: drawing his order on the state treasury for any funds. Attorney Gen- eral Frank E. Healy expressed the view that the comptroller's stand was reason- able, and State Commander Clarence W. Seymour of the leglon abruptly inter- rupted Butterworth's protests by stat- ing .that he belleved the new require- ments could be met, The effect of the change is that, In- stead of recelving the entire $50,000 in a lump sum, Butterworth will be allow- ed oply enough each week to cover the disbursements for that particular week. Based on the average totals of the past few months, the most that he will ba allowed at one time in the future will be about $7,000. The Weekly state- ment required by the eomtroller will contaln the names of those to whom It 1s proposed to make payments during that week, thus giving the comptroller a chance to eliminate any persons Inelig- Ible to recelve ald from the state fund.

When the plaintiff rested late Wednes- day afternoon, Attorney Frank L. Me- Gulre for the defendants moved that the plaintiffs elect the cause of action. part- nership or joint venture, which they seek to recover on. This was opposed by At- torney Arthur T. Keefe for the defend- ants. Judge Allyn L. Brown denled the motion. Attorney McGuire then moved a non- suit on the ground that the parties con- cerned were not partners. The attorneys were arguing this when court adjourned for the day AT DAVIS THEATRE. The Trafl of the Lonesome Pine. Matinee and evening performances of The Trail of the Lonesome Pine, a dra- matization by Eugeno Walter of the novel by John Fox, Jr.. were given Wed- nesday at the Davis theatrs by a talented company.
