MEMPHIS, Tenn, Nov. 13.-The Len
nox block went up in blaze tonight.
Fire communicated with other build
ings and for time general confagra-
ton was threatened. There was scene
of wild confusion and horror. Men
jumped from windows to save their
lives and several were injured seriously.
Two lives are supposed to haye been
lost.
The fire originated in the front of
Schmatzereid's store, caused by the ex-
plosion OF a lamp. Frank l.. Montverde
and John Mignold rushed through the
flames into the open air and were pain
fully scorched. The flames licked their
way up stairs which was the only
means of exist from the top stories.
Attention was attracted by cries from
the third story the rear of which was
occupied by the Young Mems Christian
Association. Several forms were seen
sitting in smoke appealing for aid.
Before the fremen could locate the i'm
prisoned men the heat became so in
tense that they were forced to jump.
Three fell on the rough fagstones and
were terribly hurt. A fourth made the
leap. They were Charles R. White,
arm broken and internal injuries; E..
E. Board, arm broken and severely
bruised Fred Hoke. wrists and arms
hurt; Secretary Smith, internal in
juries, his leg was broken and he may
die. Two men remained at the windows
until relieved by the hook and ladder
brigade. They were almost sufocated.
Two men we're seen in the rooms of the
association few minutes before the
fire broke out and as there were nc
means of escape, it is thought they
perished.
The losses are: Schmatzereid Stove
company, building and stock, total loss
SIC, 900, insured for $4,000; Lennon &
Gale, wholesale dry goods, stock $780,
900, building $35O,00O. Loss on build
ing by fire. $4,000, loss on stock by
water, $108,000. Insured for 100000.
Later-It is now known that Thomas
II. Bond W burned to death in the
Schmatzereid building.

ANARCHIST ALTGELD.
Denies That There is Anarchy in
Chicago.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. 13.-Governor
Altgeld was asked today if it was true
that one of the conditions of the pardon
of Fielden, Neebe and Schwab was that
they should make no anarchist speeches
in the future, and he replied: "In
granting the pardon did SO because l
thought the men were not guilty of the
crime for which they were sentenced and
I placed no conditions upon their par

not one. If the newspapers would stop
talking, anarchy would never be again
