MANGLED IN CHURCH
A Wild Rush Caused by a
 Blaze at the Altar,
WOMEN START THE STAMPEDE.
One Boy Killed and More Than Fifty
 Persons Badly Hurt.

The Fire Quickly Distinguished - Over 10000 in and Around the Church. Little Ones Crushed in Their Efforts to Es- cape-The Injured Children all Poles. Origin of the Catastrophe.
 CHICAGO, nl., Got. 1S.-A fire panic in the Church of St. StAnislaus Koiska, at the corner of Noble an Ingraham streets, at 6 a. m., caused the death of one boy and the fatal injury of half a dozen others. More than fifty persons were badly hurt.
 There were 1,5O0 children ranging in age from five to fifteen years in the church at the time, and panic among them ensued.
 All the efforts of the sisters of Notre Dame, who have charge of the children, to check the stampede proved of no avail.
 The children rushed toward the door and rolled down the stone steps, fol- lowed by the crying and screaming women that were also in the church.
 The children that came out first were the ones that were the most injured. They were trampled upon by tho chill drSn and women following them, who seemed utterly without reason or pres ence of mind.
 An alarm of fire was sent in and the noise of the approaching engines, with the ringing of bells, made the panic still worse.
 In less than five minutes after the alarm was sent in over 10000 people assembled around the church, while the panic was at its height.
 At Korsakowsky's drug store, 6S0 Noble street, several physicians were kept busy attending the injured chil- drsn.
 The fire was quickly extinguished, only a small damage being done. It will not exceed $100.
 A patrol wagon from the Rawson street station arrived and the police, with the aid of the fire department, re- stored order after working over half an hour. At first they met with very little success. It seemed as if every body for a mile around was at the place, and the crowd was so dense that a passage could only be made with the greatest difficulty. The injured children were all Poles. The list as far as can be ascert aimed is as follows:
 Frank Dzewizski, II years old, 690 Noble street, will die.
 Frank Diamtkow, 2 years old, IA Clever street, will die.
 Josef Zeizik, 20 Wade street, will die.
 Unknown boy, will die.
 Unknown girl, who was taken home by her parents, will die.
 About a dozen others are more or less seriously injured

Desperate Struggle With Lunatic on a
 Railroad Bridge.
 PTTTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 1S.-A young grocer clerk. Mack Andrews, of the West End, had a desperate fight during the day with a madman known as "Crazy Pete." The encounter took place on the railroad bridge which spans the Ohio River at the West End. Mir. Andrews was walking on the bridge, which is 100 feet above high water, when he met Pete returning from the Allegheny side.
 He spoke to MT. Andrews, and the latter answered him rather grufly. This angered the crazy man and he jumped at Andrews. The grocer's clerk started to run, but Pete was too quick for him and grabbed him by the throat and swore he would throw him off the bridge, After a desperate struggle on the narrow railroad track MT. Andrew finally broke loose and climbed down the iron supports of the bridge, with Pete after him in a per- feet fury, but Andrews escaped.

FAVOR. RETALIATION.
A Movement for Higher Tariff Agltated
 by Canadians.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1s.-AcOording to intelligence received from Ottawa Government officials, indications from the various provinces show that there is strong feeling among business men in the country in favor of Canada adopting higher tariff in order to practically exclude American products both raw and manufactured.
 The Dominion last year imported meats, grain, four and other food from the United States at @ cost of over S11, 1000, 900. By adopting prohibitory duties Canada, leading Conservatives assert, will create a home market for her own farmers.
 The Cabinet Ministers will not talk, but the utteranoes of the Hon. MT. Foster, Minister of Finance, at St. John, N. B., indicate that the duties on manufactured larticles will, if neces- sary, be further increased in order to protect the Canadian manufacturers.

 "It is ridiculous to suppose that political or financial reasons had any thing to do with it. The imputation of any mercenary motive to her is false. Furthermore, Miss Davis has known for a year or more that was poor. The burning of our house, though a serious loss, had nothing to do with her decision, for she had decided to terminate our engagement before that happened. When 8 lady decides the gentleman has nothing to do but submit"

KILLED HIS MAN.
4 Policeman Fires His Revolver With
 Deadly Effect.


 PITTsroN, Pa, Oct. 1a-John w. Davis, a retired hotel keeper of this place, was shot dead last night by William Weathers, a police officer, who also received injuries which may prove fatal.
 Davis, who was intoxicated, became involved in fight in front of the Eagle Hotel. Weathers attempted to arrest Davis, but the latter resisted so stoutly that another officer had to be called. Davis broke away from both officers and drew "black jack" from his pocket. With this he struck Weathers several terrific blows, felling him to the ground.
 As Weathers lay prostrate he drew his revolver and fired four shots at Davis, two of which took effect, and Davis dropped.
 Both men were carried to the corridor of the hotel, when Davis died in a few minutes. Physicians think that Weathers also will die. Both men are we'll known here and the excitement is intense.
