LOUISVILLE, March PA coal-oil lamp
exploded in cottage grocery occupied by
Mrs. Mary Ann Lester and her family, con
sisting of five children, at the corner of
Nineteenth and Pirtle streets, at l o'clock
this morning. The mother and her chill
dren we're all asleep in the adjoining room,
and 50 rapid was the spread of the flames
that they barely escaped with their lives.
The first warning of their danger was the
vigorous rapping of a policeman's club upon
a Side-door When Mrs. Lester awoke she
found her store filled with flames, which
were already bursting from the roof, while
her bedroom was full of hot, dense, sitting
smoke. The smaller children were almost
suffOcated to death. The least of these Mrs
Lester tossed head foremost and almost
naked out window, and then hustled the
rest out the door into the alley. Then, by
the assistance of the police and her neigh
bors, all her furniture was carried out to
safe place. The goods i'll the grocery, val
ued at S400, were nearly all destroyed.

PHILADELPHIA, March 27.-The election
for Board of Directors of the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company lasted from 10 o'clock
yesterday morning until 6 OF clock last even
ing. There was so much scratching that the
vote, stock one, was not announced until
nearly 10 O'Clock. 1t resulted in the elec-
ton of the Board nominated by the com
mittee appointed by the stockholders March
18th at Musical Fund Hall The vote was
the heaviest ever polled in the history OF
the company, and showed the interest taken
in the management of the company. The
officials refused to give the vote in detail
but announce the highest at 479,270, the
lowest 420,049. The ticket elected was
Thomas A. Scott, Josiah RacOn, Wishar
Morris, John NJ. Kennedy Samuel NJ Full
ton, Alex. Biddle, NJ. Parker Shortbridge,
Henry NJ. Phillips A. B. Cummins and
Henry D. Welsh.
The opposition vote, directed especially
against Messrs. Cummins and Welsh, was
Thomas Potter, 66,652; A. J. Derbyshire,
1914 On the funding plan, as recon-
mended by the majority of the Committee
and suggested by the Board of Directors OF
the Company, the vote was: In favor of
funding, 315, ,259; against funding, los, 1856
no funding at all, 100
The result of the election is an over
whelming Endorsement of the present man
agement of the road, under the leadership
of Thomas A. Scott, and decisive declara-
ton that no disturbance of the present
schemes will take place.

National Associated Press to the Star.


WILLIAMsroRT, Pa, March 27.-Soon after
midnight last night the large saw-mill of
Sands, Hulie & Co., located on the south
side of the river from this place, was totally
destroyed by fire. Two steam fire engines
were sent for, but they were unable to save
the property. The loss on the mill will
reach $25, 900; the insurance is small. The
flames then communicated to the extensive
furniture factory of George Luppert which
together with the valuable machinery and
stock was totally destroyed. The loss on
the factory and contents is estimated at
$50 900; insurance $4,000
The saw-lnill was not running, and was
probably set OH fire.
Luppert's factory was on fire Monday
morning, and had narrow escape at thai
time About one hundred men are thrown

CHI A RLIE ROSS.
The story of His Abduction n,sd the
Long Fruitless Search Told by His
ational Associated Press to the Star.


National Associated Press to the Star.
Boston, March N.-Mr. Christian K. Ross,
of Philadelphia, last night detailed his fruit
less attempts to find Charlie, and read sew
eral letters which he received from the kid
napers. He considered it beyond doubt
that the boy was alive on the day when
Mosher and Douglas were shot at Bay
Ridge, but since then he has found no trace
of him. He will continue the search not
only for the purpose of finding his son il
alive, OF learning the time and place of his
death if he be dead, but with the intent Of
silencing the few who believe him to have
been concerned in Charles taking off. At
the time of the abduction the kidnapers
demanded ransom for the boy, but instead
the people of Philadelphia insisted on a re-
ward being offered for their arrest, and this
in Mr.. Ross belief, who strenuously op-
posed it, was the cause of the rascals' flight
from Philadelphia, and consequently his
weary and unavailing quest.
