On the witness stand Thorn said that he did not stop going with Mrs. Poss “just because Mr. Poss had broken his jaw" the night that Poss and detectives raided the Clarendon Apartments on Riverside Drive and found the two disciples of the platonic theory together. “Didn't you think after you got that smash in the jaw that Mr. Pose considered it wrong for you to go out with his wife?” asked Abrabam Levy, representing Poss. “No, I didn’t, replied Thorn, “I thofight he punched me in the jaw to pay me for the punch in the eye that I gave him down in Healy’ restaurant « few nights before.

The indictment charged that Scanian had forged the endorae- ment of an officer of the company to a check for $56 and cashed the check. Scanian had disappeared from the ken of the Endurance Tire C people and also from that of hi people at No. 502 West Forty-second atrest, Trojan learned that Scanian had got his job with the tire concern through the employment bureau of the West ide Y.

The com- pany rolled out on a still alarm, but when Battalion Chief Carlock took « look at the building he knew bis men could not cope with the fire alone and turned in an alarm. Roused by the smoke and the cries of others, the tenants on the upper floors were croWding the fire escapes when the first of the fremen arrived. They had found the frame stairwell a furnace that cut off their escape there. Policeman Wall ran to the bullding with the firemen, rapping for assist- ance, Lieut. Stringer and Policemen. Namack, Stubits, Robinson and Braunsworth responded. They found their work awaiting them, The front and rear fire escapes, all email, were crowded with men, women and chil- dren, One of the policemen boosted another to the lower balcony landing of the front escape, where he lowered the drop ladder and began to eend the frightened tenants down. Fearing the escape would break un- der the weight of so many persons he ordered others to crawl along the ledge to windows in houses on each aide of the burning tenement. In this way many escaped and the strain on the iron escape was relieved. In the mean time a similar situation faced those at the fire escape in the rear, John Gillen of Truck No. 6 lowered the ladder there and got some of the women down, Then he put up a thirty-fve-foot ladder to a fourth floor window, where stood Benjamin Levine, seven youre old, crying piteously and begging some one to come and get bim. Just as Gillen reached the window the little boy, his night clothing aflame, crumpled and fell inside the ail. Gillen dived in and dragged bim out badly burned.

The United States has provisional government that can be The mediators are insisting that Gen. Huerta be permitted to make the appointment of the man agreed upon for Provisional President. This the American Government absolutely refuses to accept, not only because It 18 committed against recognition of Huerta, but because it has been informed by the Constitutional that under no circumstances will they accept @ peace plan which permits Huerta to exercise the constitutional function of naming his successor.
