SAVED BY FIRE ESCAPES.

Lives of Many Women and Children in
Jeopardy.
WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, March THE
most disastrous conflagration in Supe
rior's history came to an end at 1920
to-day, when the walls fell and the
Allouez Block, corner of Eighteenth
and Tower streets-the finest apartment
house in the city-was completely
wiped out, and nineteen families rem
dered homeless.
The fire started in the basement, and
the first alarm was sent Ia at 9:l0 this
morning. A servant girl had been in
one of the store-rooms, and, it
IS supposed, threw match into
a pile of rubbish. A few minutes
later the flames burst through
the floor The building was built
around a central shaft, which was oc-
cupied by the passenger elevator and
ney, drew the flames to the
roof and in ten minutes the
skylight had been blown out and
the stairway was in flames, the fire
shooting plllar-like into the air for forty
feet.
The block was four stories high and
contained twenty eight apartments, all
of which were occupied, with one
exception. The tenements opened
on the central corridor, and when
the house was thoroughly alarmed
some dozen women and almost as many
servants found their escape cut off in
that direction. There were not
three men in the house, and
the women, becoming panic-stricken,
took to the fire escape, where
they were huddled with chill
dren in their arms when the
department arrived. The fire
escape was a clumsy affair, and the
women would not descend until the
flames, bursting through the windows,
forced them to.
Mrs. J. M. Gillingham, who, with her
baby, was cut off from the fire escape,
was saved from throwing herself from
a fourth story window by Il fireman
who made desperate leap from Il
ladder and caught her.
So far as known no one is missing,
and the only casualties are from jumping
to the ground. All are Of minor char
acter.
The losses will reach $120,000 the ten
ants saving nothing. The building was
owned by Mrs. Il. l.. Belknap, of
New York, and was valued at 500, 900
and insured in eleven companies for
10000. The total insurance held by
tenants is $4,000.

high court of justice in December last
for the issuance of a writ OF habeas
court unfolding the contention of
the prisoners counsel that no def
mite legal charge had been made, and
that a person could not be convicted on
inference. The university authorities
assume to act under powers granted BY
James ;, virtually giving them the right
to imprison at will the inhabitants of
Cambridge. This power has of late
years been exercised chiefly against
young women, accused of hunting the
vicinity of the university for the pur-
pose of misleading the students.

DESTROYED BY FIRE.
Famous Female Reformatory in Indiana
Burned.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 1.-The
State Woman's Prison and Reform
School for Girls burned here tonight,
the building being entirely destroyed.
The fire was discovered few minutes
after supper in the laundry of the
reform department. With the fire
apparatus at hand the engineer
and others succeeded, as they sup
posed, in quenching the fire, when the
hose broke. Before it could be mended
the flames burst out again and rapidly
spread. The prison department was
the last to go, and the crashing of the
iron coops as the supports gave way
was heard many mile from the burn
ing buildings. The institution was stu
ated in the center of a five-acre field on
the eastern edge of the city. 1t was a
model prison, one of the most noted in
the country. When the fire was first
discovered, Miss Kelly, the superin-
tendent, ordered the inmates of the
reform department brought into the
yard. From those confined in the
prison department the most trouble was
anticipated. Miss Kelly went into the
hallway, and in loud tone called the
attention of the prisoners to the fact
that the building was on fire. II am
going to unlock these cells, but / want
you to promise me you will stand by
me and not one attempt to escape. "
The women with one voice promised
this and the fifty three prisoners fol-
lowed Miss Kelly to the grounds. Of
the inmates of this department there
are eight who have been sentenced for
life and half-dozen or more for
long terms. Others were in
on minor sentence. SO Tar
as known none of the prisoners made
any attempt to escape. though some of
the reform girls we're discovered during
the evening roaming the streets of the
city and we're sent to the police station.

SEAL CASE AT A STANDSTiLL.
No Developments at Washington In the
Behring Sea Dispute.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., March There
are no new developments to-day in
the Behring Sea controversy. The ILL
ness of Secretary Blaine would have
prevented a meeting of the Cabinet
to-day, even if one was contemplated.
The situation will be fully considered,
however, at the regular meeting to-
morrow for the purpose of determining
the policy of this government in the
event of Lord Sahsbury's continued re-
fusal to renew the modus vivendi for
the coming season. j. w. Foster, OF the
State Department, who is assisting Sec
rotary Blaine in the negotiations on this
subject, had conference with the
President on the situation this morning
and subsequently conferred with Mr..
Blaine at his home. Later Sir Julian
Pauncefote called at the State Depart
ment and had an interview with Assist
ant Secretary Wharton.

ANOTHER MEMBER GONE.
Apoplexy Suddenly Takes OF Cong ress-
man Kendall.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 7.-Repre-
sentative John w. Kendall, of Ken
lucky, died at 9:25 tonight. He was
suddenly stricken with apopleXy this
morning, and soon after he relapsed
into Inconsistencies, and remained
IN that condition to the end. Mr..
Kendall was born in Elliott County,
Kentucky, June rs, 1894. He took up
the study of law, and was twice elected
county attorney. He served through
the war rs first lieutenant and adjutant
in the Tenth Kentucky Confederate
Cavalry. He subsequently became a
member of the Kentucky legislature,
and was elected as Democrat to the
Fitty-second Congress.
1t is probable that as a consequence OF
Mr.. Kendal's death the beginning OF
the tariff debate in the House will be
DELAYED until Wednesday.

werd told that he was. They proceeded
directly to Green's room and took him
from his bed. They carried him hall
mile from the residence and applied q

cause of this affair is Green's clipping
with Mrs. J. Crawford last fall.

Extraordinary Measures Taken by the
Russian Authorities.
LONDON. March "A dispatch from
Warsaw saws that of late the Polish
revolutionists have been extremely
active in propagating their doctrine of
Free Poland" among all classes of in
habitaats, and the authorities have
taken severe measures to re-
press the further spread of the
idea of again establishing the
freedom of the country. One of the
steps taken by the military in order to
thwart the success of the propaganda is
to billet soldiers at private residences,
which, it is believed, will effectually
prevent any discussion of plans to bring
about an organized movement against
the Cars authority.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8, 1892.
WHEAT-Receipts for the week, 21 8, ,027
centals. stocks in all Call Board warehouses,
including Port Costa and Stockton, on the 1st
133,234 tons on the 1st OF September A
year agothere were 22S, ,503 tons III the same
warehouses.
1t is positive pleasure TO note not only an
improved tone to the market, but higher
prices ali round. The market has been
hardening and stifening every day this
week. Wet weather in England has been the
another gcod reason is the efforts OF the shorts
10 NH as soon as the market took an up
ward turn.
BARLEY-Receipts for the week, los, ,oS6
centals. On the 1st of the month there were
24,G13 tons of barley in Call Board ware
houses. An increase of only 800 tons for
the month. Although there is no material
steady, with fairly good outlook for the
com ng week.
OATS-Ieceipts for the week, "a. 100 ctls.
STOCKS In Call Board warehouses on 1st inst,
3,o1 D tons, an increase of over 1, 500 tons for
the past month. Last year there were $3.50
ions IN the same houses. The market shows d
decided improvement over last week. Holders
bottom had been touched. Heavy receipts by
the last steamer caused buyers To hold lack
Tor awhile; but as most Of the Cats went into
warehouse they changed their tactics and to-
cay there is a very fair demand for anything
OF good quality. The outlook FOR oats is even
more encouraging than for Barley.
HAG-Receipts for the week, 2, ,554 tons.
Even the Hay market Shows some slight
signs of improving. Receipts are less ming
and the demand for tie better grades of W heat
or W heat and Cat is also better. The poorer
Sflues are nrmer, but not quotably higher
