A HORSE BURNED ALIVE.
Fire Breaks Out in the Rear of Gott-
lieb's Bakery

Shortly before O'Clock this morning
fire was discovered in a shed in the
rear of Isadore Gottlieb's bakery at the
northeast corner of jefferson and York
streets. The flames had gained consid-
cradle headway before they were discov-
cred, and horse owned by Mr.. Gottlieb
perished in his stall Another horse and
a COW escaped badly burned.
From the shed the fire made its way
through the building to the garret,
whence it eat its way to the exterior of
the weatherboarding. The fremen had
it under control before the building was
materially damaged.
The inmates escaped when the alarm
was given without injury.
The building is a 3-story wooden struc-
ture running from York to President
street, and facing east on jefferson.
1t is an old time structure, one end being
owned by Mr.. Cohen, formerly butcher
in the market and the other by the
Remshart estate. The York street cor
ner is occupied as the bakery shop, and
the President street end as a timers
shop.
The two upper floors are divided into
fats and occupied by families.
The damage to the building will
probably not exceed $500.

DOLE READY FOR WAR.
WORK ON THE TARIFF BILL.
Differences Over the Income Tax May
Slightly Delay Its Completion.

Washington, Nov. 19.-The ways and
means committee hope to complete the
new tariff bill and give it out to the pub
lie about the close of the present week.
A fear is expressed by some of the demo-
cratic members that the differences
which have recently arisen among their
number over the policy of an income tax
may prolong the final completion of the
measure until q later date, but every
effort will be made to get the bill before
the public at the earliest possible
moment.
At the general conference of democratic
members tomorrow the discussion will be
resumed as to the policy of adopting an
income tax, and as all the essential fea-
lures of the bill practically depend on the
adoption or rejection of this policy, the
other details of the measure will probably
be held in allegiance until the committee
has finally come to a conclusion on the in
come tax. Representative Cochran, of New
York, is strongly opposed to the adoption
Of the income tax provision, but il appears
now that he will stand alone among the
democratic members, unless Chairman
Wilson should come to his aid. The po-
sitiOn of Mr.. Wilson on the subject is still
regarded by the income tax men as some
what indefinite, since he has been fire.

lous position of favoring it in theory, but
doubling its practicability and its expedi-
ency as party measure.
THE FREE LIST.
AS to the important articles to be
added TO the free list, there is no longer
any question. They will embrace wool,
lumber, iron ore, coal, salt, cotton bag
ging, binding twine, rice, and many Of
the commodities of less Importance The
present bounty on sugar will be repealed,
but it is still possible the committee may
decide to impose q slight import duty in
order to satisfy the sugar cane men of
the south and the beet raisers
of the west. There is little
probability, however, of the duty being
as high as that requested by the manu-
facturers-l12c per pound The highest
duty thus far discussed is 1c per pound
and the opinion of most of the committee
seemed divided between half a cent a
pound and admitting it entirely free
MEETING OF THE FULL COMMITTEE.
Chairman Wilson, of the ways and
means committee this evening authorized
a statement that he would call the full
committee together on Monday, Nov. o.
unless something now unforeseen should
prevent. This contingency is, however, not
likely to occur. The meeting will be
called for II o'clock in the morning, and
at that hour, the Dill upon which the
democrats have been working, will be
laid before the republicans. 1t will, at
the same time, be made public through

CROWDS AT THE EAsToN DEPOT.
Easton, Pa, Nov. 19.-The strike on
the Lehigh Valley road drew crowds TO
the station here to-day, but the strikers
were conspicuously absent. The officials
have been able to secure the services of
several engineers and few firemen. The
deficiency in the latter was made up by
taking shop hands The passenger trains
have all been sent out, but mostly after
long delays. A train of perishable freight
was combined with passenger train and
sent TO New York. Another train with two
engines hauling live stock, perishable and
general freight, was also sent out this
afternoon. Local way trains are running
1t is not probable that the company will
be able to make as good a showing to-
morrow, when there are more trains to be
run. 1t was said tonight that the COM
pany expected to run coal from the mines
tomorrow. The strikers held meeting
this morning and endorsed the grievance

DROWNED IN LAKE cAYUGA.
An Instructor at Cornell and a Young
Lady Pupil Perish.

Ithaca N. Y, Nov. III. S. Merriam,
an instructor in the Cornell university,
and Miss NJ. L. Yergin, student, went
out rowing on Cayuga lake yesterday
afternoon, and to-day their boat was found
overturned in the lake. Nothing has been
seen or heard of them up to o'clock to-
night, and they were evidently drowned
by the overturning of the boat.
They hired boat yesterday afternoon at
3 o'clock. 1t was very cold and a strong
wind was blowing on the lake. The boat
owner told them TO keep along the west
shore, as it would be dangerous else
where. This they did not do, and it evil
dently cost them their lives. Late this
afternoon hunter brought to the city an
OvercOat which had the mark of a Balti-
more firm in it. 1t was identified as the
instructors Overcoat by a gentleman who
boards at the same house with MIN Eff
forts will be made to recover the bodies
tomorrow.
The young lady has been studying at
Cornell for two years. Her home is in
Laurens county, South Carolina.
Mr.. Merriam was graduate of Van
derbilt University. He took post grad
uate course at the Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity. and this was his first year at Cor
nell. He was an instructor in the polit-
lcal economy department. His parents
reside in Chattanooga, Tenn
where his father is large
wholesale grocer and reported to be very
wealthy. The young man was passion
ately fond of the water, and was on the
lake nearly every day. 1t was his usual
custom to take some young lady with
him, and this fact atonce put at rest all
thoughts of the affair being an elopement
The parents of both the young people
have been wired to the effect that they
We're undoubtedly drowned.
Miss Yeargin was formerly student
in the Columbia Female College at Co.
lumbia, S. c., where she graduated with
high honors, and afterwards taught in
the same institution.

Washington, Nov. 19-The resignation
of Gen. l.. A. Grant, Assistant Secretary
of War, which was rendered to the Presi-
dent on the incoming of the administra-
ton, has been accepted, to take effect
Dec, Is, and it is announced that Gen.
Joseph B. Doe, adjutant general of the
Wisconsin National Guard, has been Sc
lected as his successor
Gen. Doe is a lawyer residing at James
vile, Wis. His name does not appear on
the register of either the volunteer or the
regular army, and as he is said to be quite
a young man it is inferred that he did not
see service during the war between the
states, and that his military experience
has been confined to the Wisconsin Ma
tional Guard. He is reported to possess
marked executive ability. Secretary La
mont stated some time since that he did
not wish change made in the Office of
assistant secretary of war until he could
find an assistant secretary who would
practically relieve him Of the military
routine work Of the Office. Gen. Doe, it is
reported, fills the bill

Washington, Nov. 49, - Secretary
Gresham has received complaint from the
Chinese minister, Yang You, that within
the past ten days Chinaman living in a
small town in Western North Carolina,
had been chased into the noun
tains for no other known reason
except his nationality, and that he was
believed TO have died from exposure. An
Investigation is being made of the facts
in the case by the United States district
attorney for the Western district of North

made by the United States. Recent dis
patches from North Carolina stated that
the Chinaman was believed to be wander
ing insane in the woods, and that his as
sailants bad been arrested.
