A NARROW ESCAPE.
Nine Men Imprisoned In n Burning BuiId-
ing.


ing.
CHICAGO, August 2s.-Oficer Conrad
saw ribbon Of fire steal out between the
sash and sill of an alley window of the
third floor of the four-story stone building,
Nos. ll6 and lis franklin street, at 100
last evening. When he returned from his
hurried run to fire box half block away
the alley was filed with smoke, and great
pillows of flame were rolling up the side
OF the building and sending a shower of
sparks into Washington street. While he
was waiting for the engines to come he
heard screams through the broken win
dows of the second and third stories.
He called to Officer Ward
who was standing in the alley, and with.
out moments delay the two officers ran
up the entrance staircase. The hall was
choked with smoke, through which the of
teers could see the fire tumbling ND and
and down the elevator shaft, and sweep
ing toward them with great rapidity.
cropping their way through the smoke
Conrad and Ward came to a door on the
third door, upon the inside of which a
dozen or more hands were pounding The
door was locked with big paddock and
the key couldn't be found. The officers,
reinforced by PinkertOn roundsman,
placed their shoulders against the panels
and bursted the door. 1t had no sooner
swung upon the hinges than nine men
who had been driven into the room
from the floor above by the disappearing
flames fall upon the reSeuers and begged
to be saved. Nearly all were aSphxated.
One of the men, big fellow with brown
muStache, was SO overcome by his good
fortune that he threw his arms around
COnrad'S neck and began to cry. While
the officers were battering down the door,
Merchant Pearson, one Of the imperiled
inmates, received kick in the breast
that broke one Of his ribs. When
the men got into the hallway they stag
gered through the binding smoke to the
elevator. which was by this time 4 mass
of flames. The means of escape being cut
of they picked their way to and rushed
down the steps out into the street. When
Mr.. Pearson reached the sidewalk he
tainted, and was borne to saloon where

Fire has spread through the rear of the

fire back from the front Of the building,
Ladders were slanted against the wall and

Kanawha County PrOhibitionists and Re-
publicans.
Special Telegram TO The Sunday Register.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, August 28.-The
Prohibitionists met in convention to-day
and selected a full county ticket except
Commissioner. w. C. Henson, j. E.
Thayer and L. A. Beckwith were nomina-
ted for House of Delegates. Later the
Senatorial convention was held and T. w.
Morgan, of this county, made the nominee
for Senator. The Republicans and Green
hackers of this county had hoped that the
ProhibitioGists would endorse Bob Carr,
the frlsionist candidate for the Senator as
he was the Commissioner who made it pos
sible to bring about prohibition in this
county. The ProhibitiOnists also nominal
ted J. W. Claypool, of Mercer, for Con-
gress for the Third District, Hon. 7. r.
Carskadon, of Keyser, addressed the con-
vention this afternoon. At the Republic
can county convention to-day delegates to
the Congressional convention were instruct
ed for Judge J. II. Brown.

bly, the woman's dress, which was Of sateen
and quite inflammable, brushed against a
lighted cigar stump or match, after being
used by smoker, was carelessly thrown
upon it. 1t is generally believed that the
fire had been smouldering for some time
before bursting into flame.
The reporter, after hearing Mr.. Malk-
mus's story about the explosion Of gas IN
the hustle, made inquiries at a number OF
dry goods establishments, and was inform
ed that hustle is sold which is partially
constructed Of celluloid. Mr.. Malkmps
thinks that the fire was intensified by
celluloid hustle or corset, for the blaze was
too hot to be fed by light clothes alone.
Camphor and chemicals used in the COM
position of celluloid make it highly in
flammable and in burning it emits gas.
If Mrs. Desmond wore celluloid hustle
that would in part account for the roasting
blaze created, for the gas would have in
tensified both the heat and the flames. The
case will be thoroughly Investigated by
the coroner.

CHICAGO, august q. There was large
attendance Of the female neighbos of Mi
chael yellek, at the Twelfth Street Police
Court, this morning, when the eases against
him for inluman cruelty to his ten-year-
old Charles We're heard. Annie Germyer,
one of the neighbors, said she saw the boy
tied to the post and looking like q dead
child. She did not notice how he was
tied. Mrs. Antonio Prepichal was the one
who first saw the lad. She ran and got
the Ratchet, W hich she gave to Mrs. Doorak,
who burst open the shed and cut the boys
bonds. Mrs. Doorak carried the boy
in her arms to Mrs. Prepichal,
who half carried half dragged the fainting
boy TO her house, when the doctor was
was called. She swore there was a red
welt on his body, where the rope had cut
into his flesh.
''How long did the boy remain uncon.
scious?' asked Justice White.
But little while The doctor gave
him a teaspoonful of medicine, and that
revived him, but then he went into con-

''How many commissions did he haves"
"Hewent out of one into another and con

the WOOD shed till he could consult

about noon. Nellek claimed he did not
mean to hurt the child, but to keep him
from running away. Justice White read
the statute against cruelty, and said
This oflense is more than disorderly
conduct. 4 punishment severe enough TO
throw a tender child into commissions,
must be of a nature to injure his health.
II would be heroic treatment to tie a child
fast to bed post, intending to leave him
there for four hours, but 10 string him

Special Telegram 10 The Sunday Register.
Pr. PLEASANT, w. VA, August o.
The old "Point Lott has beel for the past
two days quite an interesting spot. TWAS
there that Lewis army was encamped at
the time of the desperate battle Of October
10, 1774. Here the dead who fell on that
autumn day were buried, and here for
many years stood the walls of old Fort
Randolph. Yesterday and to-day wide
excavation is being made on the lot
and entire skeletons are being I'M
earthed. Many are being carried
away by relic hunters and others are being
boxed by the proprietor. On point Of
the lot stands the Oldest house in the town.
1t was opened as a Hotel or Ordinary"
in 1875, as is shown By the records Of
Kanawha County. Near by are the re-
mains of the old Fort Well' which was
dug about the year 177S to supply the
garrison with water. 1t is believed to
have been the first well sunk on the banks
eft the Ohio. For three quarters of a
century tradition related that small can
non had been thrown into the well,
piece which did service as part of the
armament of Fl. Lowdoun, now Winches-
ter, Virginia, during the French and In
dian war. From Point Pleasant it was
probably conveyed to some more Western
outpost. That it was not thrown into the
well is proven by the fact that the well
was cleaned out in 1862, when nothing was
found save two cannon balls and small
set of burrs which once belonged to hand
mill

that Congress should enact even more

FORT BENTON, Mont, August 2S.-
Courier advices have been received from
people living on the Marais, near the Poppen
Grade, stating that the Indians had been

were ont of ammunition. The message was
brought to town by Piegan, who depart
ed at once for the scene of hostilities.
When the news was spread number of
cowboys mounted their horses and left for
the relief of the men. The Indians are sup
posed to be a portion of band OF about
ninety. Floods who have come down
from the North on Il horse stealing eXpedi-
ton against the GrOs Nentrcs and ASSN
iboines at the Bclnap agency, and they
purpose subsisting on the way, if they have
to steal or kill cattle to do it. They have
been heard from at various points on the
MaraiS.
A party of four tried to get horse from
a half-breed boy ON the Teton Thursday
evening. They rushed out on him, but
the boy spurred his horse and escaped.
The men who went out in pursuit will give
the Indians hard deal if they catch them,
and Us they have not yet returned, it is
presumed they are on hot trail.
