CLEVELAND, o., July IA disastrous
fire occurred at Nos. 347 and 351 Broad
way this morning at 3 O'Clock. The
building was occupied by two families.
Dir. Cohen, with his wife and four chill
dren, occupied the font rooms. Cohen
jumped from the burning building, and
bis wife dropped the children on bedding
she had thrown out, and IN doing so she
was slightly burned. Mrs. Rosenberg
with her three girls and Miss Rosa Meisel,
occupied the rear part. upstairs.
THREE LIVES LOST.
She escaped with her "A year old daugh-
ter, while the two youngest children, aged
II and years, and Miss Meisel persisted
in the flames. Mr.. Trow, "A travelling man
who boarded with Mrs. Rosenberg,
jumped from his window and had his arm
broken and face badly cut. He and Nj
Mesel were TO have been married next
sunday. The current belief Of the citi-
zens and fire department is that the fre
was Of incendiary origin. This belief is
all the more plausible from the fact that
the stalrways were nearly consumed
when the fire was discovered.

SAVED FROM A FATAL WRECK.
A Cave-In Discovered just In Time to

SHENANDOAH, PA, July An extern
sive cave-in of the workings Of the Knick-
erbocker colliery caused a breach in the
road bed Of the Lehigh Valley Railroad at
a point mile east Of here to-day. The
break was discovered only a few minutes
before the arrival of passenger train,
and serious, If not fatal, wreck was
thus averted. The passengers disem-
barked from the train and walked around
the break, and, after a delay of about an
hour and a half, the train was safely
passed over it. A large force Of men
were at once put TO work and trains are
now runningly regularly.

arrival. None of the Philadelphia mill
tary organizations turned out TO welcome
them, and only a few of the soldiers have
visited the Philadelphia armories. The
local military authorities say that they
exceedingly regret the turn things have
taken. They say that they were not con-
suited nor was their cooperation asked.
There is also good deal Of disappoiDt-
ment manifested over the poor arrange
ments in the camp. Water is scarce and
hard 10 get. In fact it has come to be
generally understood among the troops
that the encampment is to be a success
they will have to DO the work themselves
and not depend upon the management.
FEARS FOR THE PRIZE MONEY.
A feeling of uneasncss concerning the
prizes has been growing among the COM
panies that intend taking part in the
competitive drills. An officer said yester-
day that he would not allow his men 70
go on the drill grounds until he sees the
prize money put up. The prizes that
have been offered amount TO over $50, 900,
and the other expenses Of the camp Will
reach $4,000 more. If the management
is to come out whole or make any money
at all the public will have TO respond
more cheerfIlly than it has done so far.
UNDERWOOD GIVEN NO AID.
The friends of Gov. Underwood say that
he has not received the support of the
people OF Philadelphia as he deserved.
The task he has undertaken involves
big outlay Of money and the expenditure
Of much time and labor. He has mad no
one to help him, though the reception and
other committees include the names of
the most prominent citizens Of the city.
Gov. Underwood has been compelled to
do all the work himself. The manage
ment is looking hopefully towards the
next three days for big crowds to attend.
The men have prOfited but little so far in
respect 10 discipline. or the latter there
has been little or nothing, men going TO
and returning from the city at their own
will.
DISCIPLINE AT LAST.
Tonight is the first night that any sort
OF strict discipline has been instituted.
Col. Hetrick issued an order to-day that
no man should leave the camp without
first obtaining permission from his supe-
rior officer, and that no one should pass
countersign. Admission to the
grounds to-day was free to the
public, but beginning tomorrow %
cents will be charged. Four companies
of artillery drilled to-day in competition,
and the remainder of the day was con-
sumed in reviews, exhibition drills and
dress parade. Tomorrow the infantry
Will begin the competitive drilling. The
first three companies to contest will be
the LOmaX Rifles from Mobile, the HOue-
ton Light Guards of Texas, and the AL
eXandria Va. Light Infantry.
