roared around him he moved in his certain
way, undiverted and intent only upon per-
forming his duty"

PHILADELPHIA, May 25s-Edward Brady, a

in dispair: "My God, the girl will be killed"
Then the train crashed into horse and phae-
ton, both of which projected over the rails.
1t came to stop just before the last two
cars reached the debris. Ward sprang FORE

TRIRENE RUuDING,

A long, narrow building, with fire
escape at one end and an elevator shaft
and open stairway, that would act like q
great flume in the case of fire, SPparat-
ing the main portion of the building
from that escape, describes, in brief,
the Tribune structure.
The fire escape was on the NicOllet
avenue end of the building. The eleva-
tor shaft was also near this end Of the
building. By the side Uf this shaft, and
between it and the fire escape, was the
open wooden stairway. In the narrow
space between the shaft and the fire es-
cape were the editorial rooms. To them
the escape was adjacent, but the COM
posing room, which contained half a
hundred men, was on the opposite side
~ the shaft, and by it was shut off from
the escape.
A"y observer would note, if they
thought of the matter while in
shaft and stairway would perform the
Office of a great draught fiume in case
of fire in most any portion of the build
ing, thus not only destroying all means
of escape but spreading and flaming
the flames to greater energy. The fact,
too, that most of the men working in
the building were without means of es-
cape was lamentable one.
The building was known as a fire.

ings in the city that are supposed to be
fire-pruof. Proper means will be taken
at once to see that they are provided
with fire escapes.

were as follows:
In the death of Milton Pickett, the members

In Million Pickett the members of his pro-

Dakota and Washington to their re-
spective classes Tin relation to the period
at which their terms will expire and
move its reference to the committee ON
privileges and elections. He said that
it had been the custom of the senate,
ever since the organization Of the gov
ernment, to assign new senators to their
res pectiYe classes as soon as they had
taken the oath; but that now, for the
first time, the senators from three states
entered practically at the same time.
His resolution, he said, proceeded on
the theory that the senators from the
three states mentioned stood on an en-
tire equality with reference to this 0p-
portunity to be assigned to the shorter
or longer term. The three states were
all admitted under the same act of
congress. They were all admitted
by virtue of proceedings that to K
pace in them OIL the same day.
The fact that the prOclamati0nS evI-
dencing the admission of the two Da-
kOtaS preceded that of Washington by
two days was due to the accident of the
greater distance of the latter so that the
evidence of the proceedings had not
reached the department of state at the
same time; this gave to the two Da-
kOtas
NO JUST TITLE TO PRIORITY.
Mr.. HOar said: Il do not understand
that the senators from the state of Mon
tana are here, or are likely to be here

MIR. Vest "Yet | would suggest tnat
provision be made for ALI event which Is
very sure to happen. and which we
know must happen in reference to a
state that is already member of the
Union by the presidents proclamation;
but, of course. that matter can be re-
considered by the committee Oh priv
iieges and elections" 1.-The senators
from the state of Montana will lose
nothing by not being included In
the resolution" Mr.. HOar an
swered. The resolution was then
referred to the committee on
privileges and elections. Resolutions
were offered and agreed to fixing the
daily hour of meeting at noon; for the
appointment of committee OF two to
join like committee on the part OF the
house to wait on the president, and to
inform him that congress is ready to re-
ceive any communication he may choose
to make (SenatOrs EdmundS and Harris
being app0inted), and for the eOntinu-
ance of the select committee on the
transportation and sale of meat prod
ucts. Mr.. Aldrich offered a resolution
(Which was laid Over) declaring the
committee on rules in the senate and
house a joint select committee to pre-
pare and report a code of joint rules for
conducting business on the part of the
two houses. Mr.. Aldrich also offered
resolution (Which was also laid over for
the appointment of select committee
of nine senators, to he called the
quadro-centennial committee, to which
shall be referred all matters connected
with the proposed celebration of the
4OOth anniversary of the discovery of
