Prohibition for North Dakota.
Rv Associated Press.


BISMARCK, N. D., December 90
The prohibition bill was called up in
the senate yesterday afternoon, and
after bitter fight was passed by a
vote'of 90 to- s. 1t was hurried to the
house, where the amendments were
concurred in and the bill passed. Be-
fore it could pass the senate it was
necessary to strike out the emergency
clause putting it into effect May 1.
1t now takes the regular course and
will 60 into effect July1.
Senator Fuller introduced joint
resolution for the amendment of the
constitution by striking out all of the
prohibition articles. The supporters
of, this resolution say the fact that
the prohibitory bill passed by so large
majority is not good ground for be-
lieving that the proposed amendment
will have no strength They say
many members who believe that the
prohibition article in the constitution
should be enforced, are in favor OF
submitting the proposition for amend
ment, believing that the proposition
was not fairly presented at the last
election

vessigate and place the blame where it

vestigste and place the blame where il
beongs."
Chief Stetsson, Of the ERE department
LAYS the blame Of the loss of life to the
lack of fire escapes. He says the de-
partment did all possible to save the
lives of the unfortunates.
THE BRAVE ELEVATOR MAN.
The elevator mans brave at.
tempts to bring down the occupants of
the upper floors while the elevator ehaft
was on fire have been generally com.
mended. He says he thinks there were
still several people on the eighth floor
when escape was cut of. He took sew
eral women up in the elevator few
minutes before the fire broke out, and
says they did not come down again.
Anton J. Dahl, book binder, was on
an upper floor and it ie believed he ID
among the lost. The elevator man, who
made three trips after the fire broke out,
says he cav man come from the office
and try to escape, but sheet OF flame
struck him and the unfortunate drew g
revolver and shot himself. 1t is thought
this man was Dahl.
DAHL AND OTHERS TURN UP.
1t is now positively known that Dahl,
the bookbinder, was not the man who
shot himself in the hall, he having
turned up eafe aud sound and we'll. Who
the two suicides were, is unknown. 1t
is almost positively known that there
are no more printers in the ruins, every
ones card being accounted for. There is
bare possibility that some printers had
gone to work without having turned in
their cards, but this is doubted. Several
employees of the Swedish paper which
was published on the eighth floor, were
in the habit Of sleeping in the building.
and nothing has been heard of them.
Also some law students slept in offices in
the building, and some of them may be
among the lost. Tomorrow's search is
all that cen decide the matter, and it
will also settle the question whether two
women taken up In the elevator juet
before the fire, are among the victims.
THE FINANCIAL Los&
The financial losses by the fire have
been considerably reduced from last
nights estimates, and it is thought they
will not exceed $3.50, 900.
GENERAL NETrLEToN ISSUES CARD.
General Nettleton issued card to-
night, in which he denies any connec-
ton with the burned Tribune building
for two years past, and says while he
Was in charge Of it, no person or occu-
pant ever requested OF him better facili-
ties for escape in case of fire. He ex-
plains the visit Of the representatives OF
the Trades and Labor Assembly. with
whom he talked over measures for pro.
lection. and thought they were fully sat
isfed about the III natter.

THAT AUSTRIAN ESTATE.
The "BazOO's" sccount of the
Matter has Stirred Up
Breeze.

The article in yesterdays BAzoo
referring to the Austrian estate COM
ing to the Barth heirs in America, has
stirred up breeze. A gentleman
came to the BAzoo office to-day and
made the positive assertion that Mar
items claims are preposterous, and
that he has disseminated veracity with
parsimonious frugality, or words to
that effect. He says that Adolph
Barth has a brother in Kansas
City and sister In La.
monte. Missouri, besides one or
two other brothers and sisters. The
strangest part of the story is that
Martins wife, nee Augusta Barth, is
still living in st. Louis. Martin in
formed a BAzoo reporter that his wife
died in the Sisters hospital at st Louis
three years ago. The person who
called at the BAzoo office to-day says
that he saw her about two weeks ago,
He further says she is the mother of
five or six children, only three, how
ever by Martin. She and Martin were
divorced several years ago, and
she married man named
Bodinski who afterwards died.
She is residing in st. Louis and
the Austrian consul has been notified
to hunt her up. A. ID. Barth, a
brother of the deceased Adolph Barth,
livesin Kansas City. A sister named
Mrs. A. &. Green lives in Knobnost.
er.
Another feature has developed. 1t
is the old man Barth, whom the Aus
TRAN Chancery court is seeking. He
died several years ago. and as is above
stated, left several heirs, the Martin
children and the Bodinski children
coming in for their proportionaie
shares of the. estate, which it is under.
stood amounts Is several million rou-
pies.

The fire whicl occurred at Green
Ridge, in this coun.y Monday night
caused greater loss than was reported
in the BAzoo. The Enterprise gives
the following accOun; OF the con-
f1agration:
The alarm was given about II
O'Clock Monday night. The fire orig
mated in the rear OF Mr.. Logan's
building, but whether in the upper or
lower part can not be positively as
ceriained. MIR. Logan lost his en-
tire stock Of goods, consisting Of
general merchandise, and FleSher his
entire medical library. surgical instru-
men;s and entire paraphernaliA be-
longing to the office About all the

ed.
+. A. LOgan's loss is about So, 600;
DIR. Flesher's about $4,000; Nh.
owner of the hotel, about
81, 700. DIR. Flesher's is an entire
loss, the other parties partially in
sured. The hotel will be rebuilt i'm
mediately, Mr.. Ridenour having con-
tracted with Mr.. 5. Glassburn Il Sons
to do the carpenter work.
BY the utmost exertions, the fire
was confined to the east side of Main
street, although it was only by the
hardest kind of work that the build |
ings occupied by James S. Ream &
Son, druggists, Henry Nelson and
John A. Logan, merchants, were
saved.
