WASHINGTON NOTES.

Judge Lindsey, of Kentucky, whose
nomination as a member Of the Inter
state Commerce Commission, was sent
TO the Senate last week, saw the Presi-
dent yesterday and stared that he had
decided 70 decline the appointment.
Whether or not anything took place TO
induce Mr.. Lindsey to withhold his
declination or reconsider his determina-
tion, is not known.
Speaker Crisp was somewhat better
Yesterday. He dictated dozen or more
letters. He IS still very weak and tires
so quickly that he will not be able to
resume work as presiding officer Of the
House before the week after next at
the earliest.
A fire yesterday afternoon damaged
the Church Of the Covenant to the ex-
tent OF $40, 600.
Charles II. Aldrich, OF Chicago, will
succeed VIM. Il. Taft as Solicitor Gen
eral OF the United States. His accept
snce of the appointment has been made
known. He is Of the law firm OF Al
drich, Payne & Washburne.

ELEVATOR BURNED
And Two workmen Consumed in the Ruin.
Burned Just Year Ago.


Burned just a Year Ago.
New YORK, January 16.-E. M. Van
Tassels big grain elevator and ware
house, corner Of Thirteenth avenue and
West Eleventh street, was destroyed by
fire this morning together with the old
stables Of the Knickerbocker Ice Com
pany, on Bank street, involving a loss
OF about 5000, 900. It's known that two
workmen perlshed in the flames and ii
is feared others lost their lives.
Henry Kopp, a carpenter, was burned
to death on the fourth floor; John Kins-
ley, also carpenter, is missing, and is
supposed to have been burned. There
were several narrow and thrilling es-
capes.
Van Tassel's elevator was burned
down just a year ago, and new eleva-
tor and warehouse were erected. 1t
was completed only short time ago.
The warehouse was seven stories high
and built of brick.
When the fire was discovered six men
were at work on the top floor Of the ele-
Yator, and the first warning they had
was when the thick clouds Of smoke
poured in upon them.
They made a rush to escape By way OF
the stairs, and two Of them, Martin
Weihart and John Gunzleir, tumbled
headlong down to the fourth story and
made for the windows on the Eleventh
street side. There was rope attached
to one of the windows, and down this
they slid to the street.
Another OF the men, Henry Spittlar,
climbed down a wire cable attached to
q grain chute, TO telegraph pole and
thus reached the street. He was pros
trated by smoke and removed to st.
Vincent's Hospital. Henry Kopfel-
beck was overcome by smoke and per-
ished in the flames. John Kingsley,
another Of the carpenters, is also sup
posed to have burned to death. All
others in the building, it is believed,
made their escape.
The mill was started only last week,
and there were 10000 bags Of wheat,
bran and haxseed and 10000 bushels OF
oats.
The loss by the fire will reach in the
nelghborhood OF 100000. Van Tas-
sells warehouse and elevator aud the
new machinery cost S15O,OOO. There is
an insurance Of 100000 on Van Tassel
block and $40, 900 on the machinery. 1t
is now almost certain that only one
man perished.

MONTT INTERVIEWED.
He Has His Opinion of American Sailors
Perhaps May Be"

Perhaps May Be-"
WASHINGTON, ID. c., January 16.-
The Post tomorrow will print an inter-
view with Senor Montt, the Chilean
minister, on the subject of the sup
posed unfriendly feeling entertained by
Chileans against Americans.
us there really a general unfriendly
feeling against Americans in Chile?"
was asked Mr.. Montt.
''NO, that is false" he replied. 'It
is as IL you say because the Irishmen in
New York City do not like the English,
all the people of the United States are
unfriendly to England. The sailors OF
the Baltimore had some trouble on the
streets, 10 be sure, but that did not him
der, many weeks after, the officers of the
Baltimore giving ball TO Chilean
people. Though these officers raised a
hue and cry In this country over the
insult Chile had offered their flag and
uniform, that did not prevent them
putting on their best uniforms and sum-
mOning Chilean ladies and gentlemen
20 dance around their irsulted flag on
q war ship belonging TO their outraged
government"
''Then you know the sailors Of the
Baltimore gave testimony on which our
courts in Chile base their action, and
when they get back to the United States
they give testimony quite different. So
what is to be done?"
II know the sailors have testified
different TO this government, but tell
you, since il narrOws down to a ques-
tion of veracity between an American
sailor, now, answer me, which has most
at stake?'
If this is the view you take Of it,
Senior Montt, how do you account for
the apparent determination Of the
United States to 20 TO war with Chile?"
~ don't. Your press and your poll
tics are analogous. Perhaps maybe l
do not know; cannot say. The English
speaking people in Chile are mainly
English subjects. The Americans who
have been m treated there are mainly
Irish. Perhaps maybe; 1 cannot say"

REPORT DIsOREDlTED.
Admiral Brown Does Not Think the Gov
ernment Has Chartered Coal Carrier.

Admiral Brown Does Not Think the Gov
ernment Has Chartered Coal Carrier.
SAN DIEGO, CAL, January 16.-Ad-
miral Brown was interviewed last night
for an opinion as to the report that
vessel had been chartered by the gov
ernment to take cargo OF coal from
Nanamo to Chile. He said he did not
believe a word OF it, that the govern
ment would not take such measure
except under stress Of extreme circum-
stances.
We can get all the coal wanted at
Acapulco, and in Peru, he said, and 1t
is absurd to think that the Govern
ment would go away up TO Namano.
With reference to the probable future
movements of the cruiser, the Admiral
would not admit that he knew anything
as TO the future.
The Baltimore, Charleston and San
Francisco are under orders to await
further instructions. That was ALL!
From other sources it was reported that
some movement of the Charleston may
be expected about Tuesday.

NEWSPAPER WARRIORS.
How American and Other Prize Fighters
Make Regulations but Not Fights.

New YORK, January 16.-The good
old days when men were men are SEEM
ingly past Us far as the pugllistic world
goes. The proper thing now is to be
newspaper talk fighter or soft glove
sport. For some days past IL looked as
though Capt. Frank Williams, the rep
resentative of the Olympic Club, OF
New Orleans. had come north on use
less errand.
Charley Mitchell refused to meet Jim
Corbett for purse OF Sl2,0C0, and his
sparring partner, Frank Slavin, also de-
clined the tempting offer OF $4,000 TO
meet Corbett. Then he offered SIC, 900
purse between Corbett and Peter Maher,
but Corbett properly refused to meet
Maher ON the grounds that the latter
had never fought flrst-class man.
An $4,000 purse was then offered for
battle between Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons, but Corbett refused to meet a
mideleweight. Then $500 purse was
offered for a fight between Fitzsimmons
and Maher, but "FitZ" declined to meet
Maher, considering him "second
rater." The next move was TO offer an
SIS, 900 purse for battle between Fitz-
simmons and Jimmy Carroll, who is now
preparing TO go TO England to meet Ted
Pritchard, the champion OF that coun-
try.
"Fltz," however, refused TO meet
Carroll, and In consequence thereof was
dropped by the New Orleans club. The
Captains next offer was $4,000 purse
for fight between Maher and Joe
Choynski. Madden could not make the
match without the consent OF Mr. Sage,
of Dublin. So Arthur LumIey tele-
graphed TO Mr.. Sage. While awaiting
an answer he hunted up Jack McAuliffe,
whom he found in company with Jack
Dempsey. he made him an offer OF a
SIC, 900 purse to fight Billy Myer.
He succeeded to-day in getting McAu-
life to sign articles to fight Myer March
for $40, 900 purse, 10 weigh In at the
ring side at 140 pounds, the winner to
take all. McAuliife also agrees to bet
from S., 900 to $4,000 on the outside.
The Captain received more good news
about o'clock in the evening as Mr..
Lumley received the following cable
gram:
dublin, January l6.
Gam satisfied If Madden is.
Signed sage
This means that the fight between
Maher and Joe Choynski will surely
take place.
