A MAN TO BEAT CARTER
Chicago in the Throes of q Hot
Fight Over the Mayor atty
Question.
People Balloting for a Man to Be
Pitted Against Ex-Mayor
Harrison.

CHICAGO, March 1O.-The fight over
the mayOralty question grows hotter
and hotter, and seldom, if ever, in the
history of Chicago has there been such
determined opposition against any as
pirant for any office as there is now
against Carter H. Harrison, who is anX-
ious to be mayor for the fifth time.
Some days since the papers opposing
Mr.. Harrison printed blank ballot on
which the reader, if regularly quail
fed voter. was desired to write the
name of his candidate and send 1t to
box 666 in the postoffice. Tens of thou :
sands of these ballots have been re
ceived, and tomorrow the count will
begin. The move was made with
view of obtaining the name of the most
popular man who could be pitUed
against Mr. Harrison, and of accurately
/gauS5hg the strength of the anti-Harri-
son sentiment. There was a strong
movement in favor of Lyman j. Gage at
the time the newspaper ballots were
printed, ahd the belief is general that
the large majority of anti-Harrison bal
lots are for that gentleman. Tonight
Mr.. Gage has given out letter in which
he declined to be candidate because OF
conflicting business interests, and one
important feature of the test ballot may.
therefore, be lost. The count will be-
gin tomorrow and may not be finished
in less than forty-eight nours.

ROACH ALL RIGHT.
A Five-Foot Correspondents At

A Five-Foot Correspondents At
tempt to Injure Him.
Special 10 the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 10.-About the
boldest fake that has been sent out from
Washington during the past week is the
story that Senator Roach, of North Da
kota, is thinking of resigning his seat.
The yarn first appeared in a Grand
Forks paper, and was finally called to
the attention of 4 correspondent in this
city, who has been wiring it to num-
Der of papers, although he has had
denial from the North Dakota senator.
Far from intending to resign, Senator
Roach is likely to secure very
fair craftsmanship OH the reorganiZa-
ton, as we'll as place in several first
class committees, notably Indian affair.
and public lands. No new member has
been received with more courtesy and
consideration than Senator Roach, and
no one here has any doubt that he will
make a valuable member, and succeed
in doing a great deal for his state. AS
an indication of his strength, 1T is only
necessary to state that some OF the older
members on the Democratic side are en-
deavoring to head him off before the
caucus committee. These men are
Jealous, and desire the places that are
likely to be awarded to the North Da-
kota man. From one Of these senators
it is likely came the resurrection
OF this ancient Grand Forks fake. When
the matter was called to the attention of
Senator Roach today. he smiled and
said: 81 gave out contradiction sew
eral days ago. Any stories to the effect
that | am thinking of resigning are
absolutely false, and need no denial. l

and although entirely unlike, they pull
together, to the great embarrassment of
the other members of the South Dakota
delegation. Some time ago eX-COn-
gresham Jolley succeeded in securing
tile appointment Of Lieut.. Greeley to
the fecultv of the state university at Yer
million. AS soon as the announcement
was made. Maj. Pickler caused it to be
circulated that Pettigrew was entitled
to the credit of securing the appoint
ment. Jolley is a modest, unassuming
man, but his friends declare that Pick
Ter and Pettigrew cannot continue to
run over him. Pickler today visited the
general land Office. and then went down
on newspaper row and gave it out that
he had secured promise that all clerks
will be retained in the land Office in
South Dakota until the end Of the fiscal
year. just who could give such a
promise Maj. Pickler did not state. AS
a matter of fact, in few days Commis-
sioner Stone will be succeeded by Col.
John d. Benton or some other good
Democrat, and the promises made by
Commissioner Stone, if he made any,
will not count.

SAVED BY A CABLE.
Successful Efforts OF Fireman to
ESCAPE.

Boston, March 10.-FOr the first time
in Boston's fire history, the overhead
wire system has proved the means of
saving a life. When the fire in
the Brown-Durell building was
at its height the form of a
man was seen at the eighth
story window. He boldly seized one of
large inSulator cables which contained
a large number of electric wires, and
proceeded to cross to the opposite build
but few feet when 1t became
apparent that he could not last
long, and, greatly to the relief of
the crowd, he threw both legs
over the half-inch cable, which slightly
sagged. and slowly and tediOuSly made
his way toward the building, 1l9 King
StOn street, to which the cable ran. A
large number of life-SaVing nets, can-
vases and cloths were produced, and
firemen, police and bystanderS Wed with
each other in holding them, while others
hoarSely shouted to the imperied man
to drop. To go on seem ed to court in
slant death. His white, agonized face
could be seen as he slowly made his
way over the cable. Several times the
voice of the vast crowd was huShed as it
seemed tnat the poor Delng hanging
there was lost. All at once the crowd
broke into a cheer, which seemed to
infuse new life into the Tagging spirit
of the man. He reached midway be-
tween the two bindings, and if he could
only hang on a few minutes more he
would be saved. Every inch of the
street below was now covered with
nets. At this point the cloud of
smoke cleared away, and the man was
recognized as Chief John f. Pagan,
of East Boston, who had only been out
of the mouse short time, where he was
confined with broken cOllar-bOne and
other injuries received by falling on
the ice. A squad of men ran up on the
building, 1l9 Kingston street, and
slowly lowered the cable to which Fa-
gan was hanging. At the same time
Hook and Ladder No. IA erected
a ladder to meet the slowly descending
man. The cable was paced out slowly.
and the exhausted man gradually came
nearer terra frma. His body swung
close to the burning building, from
which issued dense clouds of smoke. In
a few seconds he swung into the arms
of his comrades, released his hold as
weak as rat. was carried from the
scene, truly snatched from the jaws Of
death.

WASHINGTON. March 10.-The Re-
publican incumbeuts that have a stated
term of four years can feel fairly easy
under the new administration, provided
they manage their offices properly and
were not appointed to vacancy created
by the removal of Democrat whose
term had not expired. President Cleve-
land today announced that he would
treat the appointees of President Har-
rison exactly as the Hooser statesman
had treated the men appointed by him.
Wherever a Democrat was removed
four years ago by President Harrison
before the expiration of the four years
term the new administration will
promptly cut off the head of the Re-
publican now in office. This rule will
reach great many good offices in Mill
nesota, among the first being the post
office at Rochester. The new adminis-
tration removed Democrat to make
way for the present incumbent, Lyman
TOndro, who was appointed Sept. 2S,
1889, although not confirmed until three
months later Mr.. Tondro will walk
the plank just as soon as the Demo-
Gratis of the city agree upon a
man and present his papers.
Another good place that will be filed
as promptly is the receivership of the
CrookSton land Office. Four years ago
Capt. Dunlava, who had been appointed
but few months previous to succeed
Republican who was allowed to serve
out his term, was removed by President
Harrison to make way for close friend
of Gov. Knute Nelson-L. K. Aaker.
Mr.. Aaker will now be given but
short time to get out. Either William
Anglim or Capt. Dunlava will be given
the office. There are numerous other
Offices of less Importance i'll Minnesota
that will come under this rule, but in
the two Dakotas and Montana the
slaughter will be greater. Indiana and
New York will naturally enough be the
states that Will furnish the largest num-
Der of changes of this kind. No an
nouncement made by President Cleve-
land since he took possession of the
White house has created more favor
able comment among the leaders than
this.

An Awful Scene.
The cOnhagratiOn as viewed from
distance was grand. 4 dense pail of
black smoke covered that section OF the
city, and as darkness came on this was
lighted up by the flames, while Occa-
SiOnal tongues of fire and burning
embers shot up, vOlcanO-like, in the
ebony mass. In the immediate vi
cinity the scene was awful. While
the AmeS building was burning there
were repeated explosions like fireworks,
mingled with the hOarSe shouts OF fire
men. the putting of engines, the crash
OF falling walls, the rumble from hurry
ing teams and the Surging of vast
crowds, which soon gathered and
rushed to and fro in everybOdy,S way.
The employees OF many large stores in
the vicinity were or duty until the fire
was under control, ready to move out
goods if necessary. Jordan. Marsh Il
Co. kept 1000 men for that purpose. The
three largest buildings burned-the
AmeS. Lincoln, Brown * Durell-were
ofmodern structure, and were builtin the
most non -combustible possible for mer-
camille use. The BrOwn-Durrell had
front walls of sandstone and rear walls
of brick. The insurance will amount to
about S4.00O0O0. No attempt will be
made to compile the insurance tonight.

MANY VICTIMS.
Twenty-Five Thought to Have Per,
ished.


BOsToN, March 1O.-The monetary
loss is in the millions. but the saddest
loss is that of human life, which cannot
be definitely learned, but is thought TO
be at least twenty-five. and may
be much greater. The fire occurred
at about 4:30, when the streets
were filled with people. The big Ames
building was nearly all leased to Horace
Partridge 81 Co. This was his whole
sale department. and the floors were
packed to the roof with toys of all
kinds. In one room was big lot
of fireworks, and they went off with
a rush. Before even the employees
on the fool could even reach
the stairs the flames had preceded
them. The horror of the situation can
not adequately be told. In two minutes
the firemen had spread their fire nets
and rescued a score of people. In five
minutes the flames were sprea ding
from every window of the great six
story building, and the tiremeA were
forced back, knowing there were people
within impossible to rescue. On the
floor where the fire started the flames
had worked upward and downward so
rapidly that the escape was cut off. 1t
is impossible to tell tonight how many
and who were there. The hospitals
are filled by the MANNED victims
who jumped from the windows, and
there are anxious inquiries for many
who have not yet been accounted for.
The captain of Engine No. 26 says he
saw four girls fall back into the flames,
and another fireman tells of two others
who met similar fate on the opposite
side of the building.

HEMPHILL FOUND OUT

WASHINGTON, March 10.- Senators
and representatives who called OH Pres
ident Cleveland this morning received
confirmatory evidence that Mr.. Cleve-
land does not intend to give offices to
those who had been favored under the
previous Democratic administration.
Ex-Representative Hemphill, of South
Carolina, called expressly for the pnr-
pose of ascertainlng whether the report
was true, and he received an affirmative
answer from Mr.. Cleveland. ltis likely,
of course. that exceptions will be made
in rare instances. The cabinet meeting
today curtailed the time usually given
to callers, and their number was conse-
quentiy not 50 great as it has been OIL
other days this week. Hereafter the

YELLOW METAL OFFERS.
Western Banks Will Exchange
Gold for Treasury Notes.

WAsHIN GTON, March 10.--Secretary
Carlisle has received offers from Chi
cago bankers to exchange s3, 10000 of
gold for a like amount of small treasury
notes of the denominations Of fives,
tens and twenties. limitations were
made that the amount of small notes
that will be needed will reach S10,000,-
900, for which gold Will be paid. He
will forward the small notes at once.
So far as the treasury department is ad-
vised, no gold has been engaged at the
New York subtreasury for shipment on
Saturday. Several other offers of gold
for small treasury notes were made to
Secretary Carlisle this afternoon. Gin
cinnati bankers offered $1,000 of
which 100000 was accepted. Other
offers in small quantities came from
bankers in Kentucky. Illinois and Mis-
souri,. Treasurer Nebecker was much
pleased with the turn affairs have taken.
and declared that sufficient offers of
gold had been received to absorb all the
small legal tender notes on hand.
VIII Not Issue Bonds.
New YORK. March 10.-Referring to
the gold supply and the possibility of
the issuance of bonds by the govern
ment. the Washington correspondent of
the Herald says: IA gentleman high
in the councils of the administration
says that Mr.. Cleveland does not believe
the financial situation at this time is
such as to make the issue of bonds
necessary, and that Secretary Carlisle
thinks the issue of bonds can be avoid
ed. Tremendous pressure is being
brought to bear upon the president and
the secretary of the treasury in favor of
the issue of bonds, but so far without
apparent effect. The choice between
the Issuing of bonds and drawing upon
the gold reserve is one that cannot long
be delayed. The administration still
adheres to its decision against the issue
of bonds. The president and Secretary
Carlisle are in accord, and there is no
reason to believe that there will be a
change of policy"
Russell Sage said today; "The de-
cisi0n that has apparently been arrived
at by the treasury officials. to use the
$100, 900, 900, commonly called reserve, is
an expediedt that will prove tenn
porary palliatiYe, but will not tend to
allay all fears on the monetary question.
These methods will have tendency to
quiet fears for the time being, but the
cause of the trouble will not be removed
until the Sherman bill is repealed, and
Europe will not buy our stocks or bonds
with any confidence until this measure
is entirely out of the way"
