Wl SAYS IT WOULD MENACE HOME TRADE Ofb,)m‘- to. Br Ways and Means Committee Hears , Colorado Beet Sugar Men in Op- position to Tarift Cone stons to Cab WASHINGTON, . Jan. 28.—The Cuban reciprocity hearings were resumed today before the ways and means comnlttee, with delegations representing the beet sugar industry’ of Colorado aad a number of Cubans, representing the planters of the island, In attendance. F. B. Carey of Colorado spoke of the de- velopment of the beet sugar industry of Colorado and its bright prospects, If not endangered by Cuban concessions, which would redound to the great advantage of the Amerlcan Sugar, Refining company. The great movement, he ‘said, was only another ohipter in the ipevitable conffict between domestic sugar producers of this country and the refining company, the lattér seek- {ng 6 crush the former. A bubble which had been pricked, he sald, ‘was that.Cuba was suffering {rom starva- tlon, This idea bad been industriously en- couraged by the pamphleteering of the sugar company, and.yet the.claim had been torn to pleces during the hearings. Represeltative: Hopkins of : Illinols ‘ques- tloned the witness as to whether any co cessiops to Cuba ‘would ‘Injure the beet sugar industry. Mr. Carey ‘declared that injury in such " case Was fnevitable. Representagive Hopkins said Mr. Carey's assertion of Injury to the beet svgar indus- try was only an assumption, and he ex- pressed the beltef that a reduction could e made after a certaln percentage without destroying the beet sugar indvetry. Representatives Dalzell «nd Grosvenor took part in the discussiow, stating that the injury 'to tha ‘domestic' producers had been ..mbgwn by this and other wjtnesses. Mr. —,&mor remarked that anyone could see Ahis. result who could put two and two te- goth aks for Cuban Planters. P. B. Machado, head of the delegation of Cuban planters, sald, in part: . * The Platt amendment, attached an to our constitution, chained the Kibate to thls country Lo uch an extent t we are powerless to help ourselves or to develop our internal life, because the osed rellef. thways for dealing with outslders are to ‘Therefore, Cuba must atarve, n without even the right to ask qt has been sald here that the Cubans bave the cheek to knock at your door for alms, like beggars.

Already Cuba had placed a $12 duty on Porto Rico coffee, thus injuring that trade, so reliance was now placed in a continuance of the sugar trade. Mr. Mendoza ‘of the Cuban delegation made a rejoinder to Mr. Degetau, expressing surprise that Porto Rico should cast her influence against Cuba after Porto Rico had reaped all benefits of the war, which Cuba conducted. “We had the fighting,” sald Senor Mendoza, “and now they get free #ugar to the United States on account of our war." “We had no fighting to do,” responded Mr. Degetau, “because we recelved the Americans with open arms.” W. L. Churchill of Bay City, Mich., chair- man of the beet sugar delegation from that state declared that the real issue was be- tween the sugar trust and the domestic produccrs and expressed confidence that con- gress would not cast its influence on the slde of the trust.

THE OMAHA DAILY GUESTS ROUTED FROM ROOMS Over Two Nundred Peeple Driven frem Hotol by Fire. TAKE REFUGE IN BEATING SLEET STORM Adjoining Structore . Flames Destroy and Serfously Threaten the Ln Lindell Hotel—Loas i Heavy. ST. LOUIS, Jan, 28.—Two hundred and thirty guests of the Lindell hotel were driven from their apartments into the sleoty stroets at 10 bo'clock tonight by rag- fng flames, which wrecked the adjoining bullding at the corner of Seventh street and Washington avenue, and for thirty thrilling minutes threatened to sweep away the hos- telry. Women were carried from the upper floors by elevators and down the stalrways in falnting conditions. Mothers with in- fants In thelr arms groped their way through suffocating smoke. Men dragged thefr trunks after them down the broad stairway.of the hotel and elerks in the office hastily procured the valuables of the guests from safes and vaults and cnrried them to places of greater safoty. The structure fn which the fire originated was a five-story brick. affalr known as the 0'Nelll bitllding. It was an anclent and in- flammable structure. There were a dozen or more firms occupying it, of which the largest concern was the L. Baumant Jew- elry company, The losses sufforod by thess concerns will approximate $300,000. The Lindell ho- tel was damaged by smoke and water to the extent of $25,000. Bullding n Seething Farnace, The blaze was the most spectacular thing of the sort ever witnessed In this city and it drew an immenso throng of spectators. The inflammablility of the O'Nelll buflding and its contents was of such nature that the structurs was within fifteen minutes after the fire originated a seething furnace from cellar to roof. The night was extremely cold and quite a high wind prevailed, which carried the flames 100 feet Into the alr and across the streets to the south and west. Several bulldings opposite the burning structure were ignited, but prompt actlon on the part of the* firemen saved any considerable damage in that direction. About halt an hour after the alarm was given the fire communicated to the roof and top story of the Lindell hotel, and the most imperturable of the guests, a number of travellng men, began their exit. Bell Boys on Service. Under the direction of Proprietor Shaugh- nessey, the entire force of porters and bell boys were ordered to all the floors above the office to assist in carrying out the heavy sample trunks and a large quantify of per- sonal effects remaining in the rooms. Crackling casements which ignited mo- mentarily from the great waves of fire driven by the high wind against the hotel Were extingulshed as fast as the flames communicated themselves. Bllstered with Intense heat and driven at last from their positions, Mr. Shaughnessey and his firo fighters returned again and again to battle with the blaze. Finally the fire department succeeded in getting halt a dozen lines of hose to the upper floors and roof of the hotel, where play was made on tho flames on the O'Ngill building, and Marshal Swing- ley sent a dozen men with fire extingulshers to reinforce the botel col |These rein- forcements made themselVes felt at dnce and the hotel was socn out of danger.

HEAVY LOSS IN IOWA TOWN Four Hrick Buildings Destroyed and Several Others Damaged at Rippey. $25,000; {nsuranoce, RIPPEY, Ia., Jan. 28.—(8pecial.)—Fire originating in the basbment of the Rippey Mercantile company at 1 o'clock this mern- ing destroyed nearly $40,000 worth of prop- erty. Four brick buildings were burned to the ground and several others were more or less damaged. The fire is supposed to have origimated from the explosion of a lamp or an ofl stove in the basement of the Rippey store, where it 1s known they kept them burning to protect some vegetables from the cold. Mrs. Lovejoy, who, with her husband and children, occupy rooming quarters over Bullock & Cramer's store, was the first to discover the flames, which were then burst- ing from the basement. Dr. Lovejoy imme- dlatey summoned the fire department, but before assistance coud be rendered the Rippey block, the Commercial bank bulld- ing and Bullock & Cramer’'s general mer- chandise store were enveloped in flames, which threateued to spread to surrounding buildings. The fire department concen- trated its efforts to these builldings in dan- ger, keeping the fire confined to the four brick structures which it was known could not be saved. P. M. Osborne's drug store, across the street from the Rippey block, was in immi- nent danger at one time. The entire plate glass front was mashed In and the weather boarding burned from the framework on one side. The Rippey hotel, farther down the street from the Osborne drug store, caught fire at an early hour, but quick, snappy work on the part of the fire depart- ment saved this bullding. It is owned by the Chbarles Kahler estate of Des Molnes and is fully covered by insurance. A barber shop, also belonging to P. M. Osborne; was slightly damaged. It was on fire several times, ‘but the department was able to save it from destruction. The following losses, or estimated losses, and insurance are reported: Dr. Lovejoy, ofice and household fixtures, $1,000. No insurance. Bullock & Cramer, contents, $8,000. tlally covered by insurance. Bullock & Cramer block, owned by Dr. Lovejoy, $3,000. Insurance, $800. Rippey Mercantile company, contents, $12,000, Partially covered by insurance, Rippey block, owned by A. P. Gilliland, Par- $5,000. Partially covered by Insurance. Commerclal bank, contents and bullding, owned by F. Westley, $5,000. Partially cov- ered. For some time after the fire department arrived frequent explosions in the basement of the Rippey block prevented effective work. The management had stored there large quantities of gunpowder and flour and almost every time the firemen attempted to force their way In they were driven back by the terrific smoke apd flames blown out through the doors and windows by the force of the powder. It was not until after this bad entirely spent itself that they were enabled to t at the source of the trouble and stifle it. No accidents are reported, though the men BEE: WEDNESDAY, went unhesitatingly (nto the most danger- ous places. At the Rippey store they were forced out a half dozen times by the ex- plosives, but after the eftects of each re- port had dled away they again ventuted in with strings of hose, playing them with force and effect on the flercely burning fire.

The third bullding was the property of Postmaster F. M. Bherrett and was occupled by him as postofice and hardware store. The only property saved from the three bulldings was the equipment and records of the postoffice, These Mr. Sherrett rescued and placed (n another bullding, where he will operate the office for the present.
