Many Lives Losr-Graphic Scenes.

in the rear Of James BOyle's liquor store.
1t started at the bottom of the stairs that
furnished the only mode Of exit for the
tenants Of tive-stOry building, bar
ring the Ouside fire escape, and in
less than five minutes swept through the
stairway to the roof, cutting of the ESCAPE
of score of persons. The suddenly im-
pcrilled tenants made rush for the roof,
but the scuttle was firmly hooked and
would not yield. The ascending flames
drove them back in their rooms
and scene of wild confusion en-
sued Men and women threw their
children from windows and jumped after
them through the flames that swept across
the yard and caught their clothing. When
the firemen mastered the raging element the
dead bodies of rine persons were taken
out. Several were injured in making their
escape and were sent to the Chambers

The male members Of the families had
all gone to work when the fire commenced

of the scorched and MANNED women and
children, many of them being badly hurt
in jumping from the burning building. In
half an hour all was over. The fire origin
atcd from gasoline lamp, which some
plumbers were working with.

LONDON, Jan. 4.-Messrs. McCalmonts
write to the papers criticisins President
Gowen's intention to offer for subscription
his scheme Of deferred bonds. They say
The failure of such an attempt would
injure the company. and even only
a partial success might produce fl.

We think, moreover, that rs the day
fer the election of the company's board Of
directors is at hand and as numerous share
holders including ourselves have come to
the conclusion that Il change is necessary.
Mr. Gowen and the present board Of di-
rcctors ought not further to press such i'm

election.
President GOwen has secured guarantees
and will issue the deferred bonds of Read

CASE OF CONSCIENCE.

\ Democratic Senator Who Would not
Qualify.
HARRISBURG. Pa, Jan. 4.-The first
biennial session of the Pennsylvania
Legislature convened here at noon to-day,
aud the Republican caucus nominees were
duly elected as officers.
In the Senate sensation was caused
by E. B Coke, tho Democratic senator
from Luzcrne county, declining to
take the "irOn clad" oath. He made
a lengthy statement showing that he
had used money in securing his own cleo
tion, and that therefore he could not con-
allow himself to be sworn in.
Coxc's statement says his money was
spent for usual election purposes and none
for corrupt purposes.

Difficulty Of Obtaining Port Wine.


The difficulty OF obtaining pure Port Wine
tor sickness is one great cause why physicians
refuse to prescribe it where they know it
would benefit their patient because they fear
that some poisonous mixture will DC given
them instead of Port Wine, and the injury be
irrcparablc. California wines arc being terri
bly, mixed and adultcrated with alcohol and
water and other ingredients to make 1t cheap,
SO as 20 bring greater profit from the sales.
The most excellent and finest Port Wine il
made in New Jersey, from the OpOrtO Grape.
by Alfred Specr, and has become the most re-
liable wine tor Hospital and Communion pur-
poses. This Wine has been thoroughly ana
lyzed and il pronounced by chemists to be
the pure juice of the grape, and to contain the
most valuable medicinal properties. 1t is sold
by druggists, who purchase direct from Mr..
Spcci.'s Vineyards IN New ycrsey.-Erening
Post.
The above wine has become i'm great demand
in New York and Brooklyn for communion
and hospital use.
This wine is recommended by Drs. Atlcc

men-are all burned on the face and
hands. Josiah Powers, the lookout,

found were those of the stevedores.
Seventeen corpses were found IN the

No gasoline was within forty feet of
the point of explosion. Both boilers
were found intact.
