Only One of tho Five Bodies Recovered.
Owners of the Building Censured.
DETROIT, Nov. 24.-All night long and
this morning the tiremen poured water
on the smouldering ruins of Edison,
Moore & Co. e dry goods building, which
was burned yesterday with such fatal
results.
AS soon as the debris was cool enough
to permit it being done, search for the
five dead bodies was commenced. About
noon charred mass of fesh was un-
earthod. 1t was the body of a large
man, but tho features were so badly
burned that it was impossible to identify
the remains.
Search for the other unfortunates was
continued, but with little hope Of suc-
cess, as it is thought that they were
consumed entirely.
The Palms estate, which owned the
building, is being censured on all sidea
for not providing better means OF escape
for those employed there.

New YoRK, Nov. 24.-"The Canadian
lawyer and his friend need not worry"
said Mr.. William NJ. Ivins, legal adviser
to the Brazilian Legation in the United
States when interviewed by a repre-
sentative OF the Associated Press this
evening. "The shipment Of arms and
ammunition arc entirely legal.
"fhe America is a Brazilian public

United States and the decisions Of the
supreme court of tho United States it 10

state with which the United States is at

"The United States government has
refused to recognize him as belliger-
erent, and there is therefore no infrac-
ton oi neutality by the United States or

builders have the same rights conse-

government Of Brazil that England or
France has, and each of those govern

"on the other hand any attempts to
supply Meiio as a rebel or an insnr-

a clear violation OF the international

ELMIRA, N. Y, Nov. 24.-This has
been quiet day at sayre and the strik-
ers this afternoon almost entirely de-
serted the depot and yards. They have
been well behaved. Their surprise was
great when they were informed late
this afternoon that the sheriff had sent
for 100 deputies to help guard the yards.

THE INCOME TAX.

An Associated Press dispatch says:
The Democratic members of the ways
and means committee arc experiencing
much difficulty in their endeavors to
complete the new tariff bill and have it
ready for submission to their Repubii-
can colleagues at the meeting Of the full
committee on Monday next There ia
still considerable difference Of opinion
in the committee upon certain items Of
the bill, and at this stage the details OF
the internal revenue schedule and the
income tax provisions are yet incom-
plete and somewhat indefinite. Indeed
strong influence has been brought TO
bear within the last forty-eight hours
20 induce the committee to abandon al
together the income tax provisions, but
the position Of Messrs. McMillin, Bryan,
Whiting and others has been 80 resolute
in favor Of this policy that it appears
impossible for the committee to aban-
don the income tax fully without hope
lessly dividing the Democratic party.
Such action on the part OF the COM
mittee would result in minority re-
port being presented to the house.
It seems probable, however, that the
income tax provision will not be OF that
sweeping character that was at first
contemplated. The present plans are
to impose a tax on legacies, on incomes
OF large corporations, on the incomes OF

Strike is ut an End.
WnKEsBARRE, Pa, Nov. 24.-The
fight between the Lehigh Valley rail-
road and its employees is now on finish.
The men begin TO realize this for the
first time. There was hope all along,
until to-day, that a compromise might
be affected, but now that hope has van
ished. The ray Of sunshine that pierced
the gloom this morning and gave en-
couragement to the hope that the strike
was nearing an end, was dispelled by
the following communication to Chair
man Rice from Messrs. Simpson aud
Watkins, the coal operators delegates
ut the operators meeting to meet Mr..
Wilbur and see if he would not assent
to a hearing The railroaders in the
matter at issue say:
"Owing to your insisting upon the re-
instatement Of all employees, our neeo-
tiations for conference have failed.

that many people went down from Los

Tourists are again reminded that the
accommodations at the Redondo hotel

rivals, while the prices charged are
less. The house is now pretty we'll

their approval by the manner IN which

UNIVERSITY KICKERS.
THEY GO TO SANTA MONICA AND
DEFEAT THE SEASIDE ELEVEN.
a Lively Game of Football on Monday.
An Account of the Contest.
The Personnel of
the Clubs.

A picked eleven of University football
players went down to Santa Monica
Monday, where they contested with a
local eleven from that place for suprem-
acy in football. Santa Mo aica treated
her visitors well, but that did not ward
off defeat. The city by the sea donned
blue as its color, while the students
wore red as theirs. At 2 O'Clock the
game commenced with the ball in Santa
Monica's hands, but in about two
minutes later, on Santa Monica's fun
BILE, the 'Varsities made touch down
and goal. Santa Monica's ball was
again at center, but again in about
five minutes another touch down
and goal was made by the U. S.
Q. players. And go it went throughout
the game. The Universites' interier-
ence was feature of the game; also
their flying wedge, although thev were
the lightest players. The Santa Monica
boys lost the ball often on four downs ;
the Universities never.
Santa Monica made her four pointe on
a scratch run by Shekels through a
crowd of spectators who were on the
grounds at the time, thus interfering
with the Universities tackling him.
Quinn made four touchdowne, Rubio
one, Tucker one and Gray one. Gray's
kicking was frst-class and Bellville's
tackling also. The Santa Monicas were
weak on account of slight acquaintance
with the game.
Keller and Lloyd slternated as referee
and umpire.
The score: First half. 26 to 0; second
half, 22 to 4. Total: Universities, As !;
