Texas Verdict on Case. “We Rices out yonder in Texas think very strongly, sir, about this murder of our uncle, William Mansh Rice,” said the Mayor, setting back his bulk upon leather couch in the Normandie's lobby, wo that the springs squeaked in their anguish. “We regard & as a most dastardly and brutal deed. I reckon had it happened in some sections of Texas the murderers might have gone into the hand vf the Coroner instead of the Dis- trict-tAtorney.

ALGECIRAS, Spain, March 1—The result of the last forty-eight hours’ ne- gotiations is another check threatening to prolong the Morocoin Conference.

WASHINGTON, March 1.—While no immediate break’ in the conference at Algeciras 1s expected by this (ove ment, the negotiations there e Feachod the stage which, according to the reporta recelved here, threaten the failure of the conference unless there is &@ chamge in the attitude of Germany. A long conference occurred at the State Department to-day between Sec- retary Root amd M. Jusserand, the French Ambassador, during which the negotiation at Alrectras was themain subject under discussion, It 1s not unlikely that some of the neutral powers mBre directly interested will renew thelr efforts to bring France an@ Germany into accord. The Wash- ington Government, however, it {s stated here, is not am the powers chiefly interested at Algeciras and can- not be exnected to intervene in Euro- pean politics, PUTS BAIL UP HIGH FOR HOLD-UP ROBBERS.

During the morning the body was taken under escort of the Elks to St. John’s Episcopal Church, where tt lay im state, the Dubuque military company acting as a guard of honor. The flow- ers were magnificent. There were six wagon loads, The Episcopal funeral service was read by Rev. John C. Sage, and George n/p, Perkins, of Sioux City, @ tormer| ‘al colleague in Congress, pronounced the eulogy. ‘The Grand Army of the Republic took charge of the body afer the services at the church, The funeral procession seph Quinlan, of Hook and Ladder No.; was led by the military company with 61, and Joseph Healey, Edwani Dun- phy and Joseph Desize, of Engine Com- pany No. 114. They were taken to their homes. All the injured were burned about the face, hands and arms. In several cases all the hair was burned from the heads of the victims. Hurried Employees Out. The fire started in a wooden shed built, against the rear of the brick building In which the dyeing establish- ment is located. The shed has been used as a storage place for the in- flammable and dangerous benzine and naphtha. As soon as smoke began t sweep out of the door David Stark, manager of the company, yelled for every one to leave. About twenty men and women were at work in the bulld- ing and all reached the street safely. Somebody ran to the corner of Nog- trand avenue, half a block away, and turned in an alarm, Until the firemen arrived the crowd stood around at a respectable distance and watched the smoke. It looked as if this would be like any one of count- less other small fires, When the engine companies and the hook and ladder arrived they were warned of the explostyes, but the fire was so small that the danger seemed slight. Some of the firemen strung hose across a vacant lot at the slide of the building and played water on the rear of the shed. Others went through the front of the dye works and turned on @ stream through the door connectin, the office with the storage shed. This last squad was in charge of Lieut. Kane, and a dozen men with two lines |. Of hose were grouped about the door As they held the hose. It was these who were injured, Five Explosions in All, They were standing thus when one of the tanks went off with a roar. The men at the bows tumbled over in a heap, but before they fell there more three more explosions, sprung togcther like the raoid rattle of some gigantic gattling gwn. So quickly did one tank after another go off that to the awe- struck crowd on the street It seemed Mike one long-drawn roar. Then after & moment the fifth and last can of cleansing fiuid burst. ‘The men were covered with the burn- ine Inquld. and those who were not stunned rolled in agony on the floor. ‘The Mne of hose that had fallen from thelr hands threshed about the place lke a wounded python. ‘The explosion had thrown burning debris all over the main office, and the entire place was in @ blaze when other firemen rushed from the street to drag out their wounded comrades; : The men, frenzied with pain, were carried to the street, where it was found that three physicians were in the crowd.
