/ aINDIANAroLIs, Nov. 1s.--It was late at
night, or rather early in the morning,
when most Of the delegytes to the Farm
ers' Alliance convention sought slumber.
The chief topic of conversation and dis
scussion was, of course, the third party
movement. The propagators Of this
! movement went to bed tired but happy,
for they had worked hard and felt that
they had accomplished much. The
]. ''antis," while not so confident, were
stiI determined that the third party
movement should not receive the in
dorsement of the Alliance or the Farm
ers Mutual Benevolent association. It
Is evident that the fight win be begun
early. and that it win be very bitter.
The third party men have big lobby
IN attendance, and are working tooth
and toe nail to carry their point.

Mr.. @. f. Washburn, of Massachu-

party executive committee, says the

that, all the industrial organizations
win be consolidated, and that the Peo-
ple's party win hold the balance of
power In the electoral college next year.
he says the white Alliance In the South
win secure the colored Alliance menu

that the Alliance will get number of
electoral votes In the South and then

his policy.
It Il claimed by the Peoples party
men that the "big fiver Polk, Macune,
Livingstone, Tllman and Terril, stand
in the way Of indorsing the Peoples
party.
On the other hand these latter gentle
men ray that partisan action i specially
forbidden by the Alliance constitution.

HELINGsFoRs, Nov. 18. Much excite

Twenty Brooklyn Tenement Houses
Destroyed and Over Fifty Families
Driven Out.
Six Persons known to Have Perishod'
In the Flames and Others Are
Missing.
Police and Firemen Work Like Heroes
and Many Lives Are Saved by
Them.

BRooKLYN, Nov. l8.-At an early hour
in the morning fire occurred In the
four-story tenement house at No. 121
Nostrand avenue. The building w&a
constr ucted mostly Of wood and the
flames spread to all portions Of II with
marvellous rapidity, cutting of the e.
cape of those who lived In the upper
floors. Six persons are known TO have
perished while many other persons wers
badly burned or had narrow escapes
from death. The dead, a. far as known,
are: Mrs. Schnabel, her two children,
and Mrs. Stellinberger and her two chill
dren. The FIRE spread from No. 100 to
adjoining buildings and destroyed
twenty of them. AT least City families
were burned out and it is probable that
other persons, besides those given above,
Have Lost Their Lives.
There were scenes Of wild excitement
and panic during the progress Of the
flames. The inmates, aroused from
their slumbers by the police and others
who happened to be in the vicinity,
rushed wildly from their homes III
scanty attire. Mothers remembered
that some Of their children were forgot
ten In their hasty exit and could,onlY be
prevented from rushing back into their
burning homes by force. The police
and fremen worked like heroes and
many daring rescues by them are
recorded. A family living on the top
door OF this building was unaccounted
for and an effort was made to reach
them, but the smoke and flames
Drove the Rsscusrs Back.
The flames were first discovered 81
x:S0 9. M. and ct 8 o'clock were not vel
under control. although the whole a
the nre department was on the scene.
Probably the greatest fatalities occurred
In the building No. 100, whore the fire
originated. There were six families
living there, and all were rescued alive
but some e>members of the Schnabel and
Stellenberger families. Mr.. Schnabel
and Mr.. Stellenberger and one child
were rescued with great difficulty, but
the remaining members of the two fam
lies were burned to death.

Emperor's Consent lacking.

VIENNA, Nov. 1S.-Rumor is again
connecting the name of the Princess
Stephanie, widow of Prince Rudolph,
with that of Prince Ferdinand, Of Bsll-
garia. 1t is said that the consent of
Francis Joseph is all that is lacking to
their betrothal. Besides Stephanie her
self thinks that she ought to remain in
mourning q while longer for her late
husband who died less than two years
ago. A few days ago she visited for
the first time the chapel at Meyerling,
erected over the scene Of her husbands d
tragic death, and she also sent beautiful
wreaths from herself and little daughter
to be laid on the princes tomb.

Life insurance NAV almost be held to be an
American institution. The system dld not

countries of Europe it is in successful operation
vet nowhere has it attained the magnitude, the
success or the widespread popularity that have
rewarded the efforts of the life insurance COM
panes of the United States
The substantial, even magnificent, results
achieved by the great life insurance companies
of New-Yorlt during the last thirty or forty

business has grown into dimensions not easy
to grasp by any single effort of the mind.
Under policies numbering nearly million and
half the lives Of probably a million persons
are insured for almost three thousand five hun

to the Nations war debt at its top notch, will
within generation be distributed among per-
haps four million benefciaries. The assets APP
proach thousand million dollars, the surplus
over average liabilities to the assured is nearly
a hundred million Their cash assets largely
exceed three hundred millions. OF this great
sum more than thirty millions are in bank.
All these reasons for reposing the fullest
faith IN the integrity and in the ability of our
/
reasons why those managers should, in the face
of facts such as have lately become public and
of rumors such as are now current, leave no
stone unturned to retain the confidence they
have won This cannot be done by policy
of silence or of reticence. If such policy were
ever sound, which may well be doubted, it is
not so now 1t is bad in business and bad in
morals. The whole community, by whose sane.
ton the business exists, has an untold interest
in the wise and honest administration of this
great beneficial trust A million policy holders
are directly concerned.

Signs are not wanting, indeed are not few,
that the fairness of the land is to be less fat

The old policy -hoders will not always be con-
