ON the Roof When II Fell.


The Davidson Theater, the finest
playhouse in Milwaukee and one OF the
handsomest and costliest theaters in
the country, was destroyed by fire
which broke out between 4 and
o'clock Monday morning. Ten firemen
lost their lives in the fire, nine of them
going down to living death by the
fall of roof, and the tenth being
killed by the fall OF a ladder. Several
others were also injured, some OF them
1t is feared fatally.
The valuable scenery and property
OF the Lilliputians, whose ten days en-
gagement at the theater was to close
on Wednesday, is all gone. Manager
Rosenthal Of the company says it was
worth $4,000.
Shortly after o'clock, when the fire
was seemingly under control, the thea
ter roof, on which score or more fire.
men stood as they fought the flames,
went down, and the brave men were
carried with it to the floor of the audi
torium below. Some were extricated
from the furnace of flames, in which
the whole interior was now enveloped,
by their brave and more fortunate
comrades, who risked their lives
to drag out the PROSTATE forms
of the dead and injured men. Six or
eight men were soon brought out, and
those who were able to speak said
there were ten or more in the ruins,
where living death awaited them. For
these poor fellows there was no chance.

MILLION IN SMOKE.


eSrOyoo ~ FHe
The American Glucose Company's
two buildings In Buffalo, N. Y, were
totally destroyed by fire Thursday
night at q loss OF d, 1,600,0 900. There
were $50 men at work In the buildings,
Most OF these got out, 1t is known, but
those who worked in the seventh floor
OF the main building, 1t is thought,
must have been cut Of and their lives
are ten men missing and probably
more. Seven men are In the hospitals,
three of them firemen.
The loss is estimated by @. ]. Ham
lin, the owner of the works, at 81, 800, :
600, with insurance for S475,000. The
main building, says dispatch, is on
the north side OF Scott street, the feed
and starch building on the south, both
connected by a bridge at the fifth story.
The fire broke out in the electric light
room on the ground floor. The engi-
neer, John Coyle, saw burst OF flame,
and the whole room was in blaze.
The buildings were a veritable tinder
box and when the engines arrived
were a mass of flame to the fifth
story. Firemen with scaling lad
ders took out six men from the sixth
story. All who were above that
must have perished. The fish market
on Scott street was destroyed when the
walls of the main building fell in on it..
Firemen Schroeder, Weber, and Kelly
were buried in the crush. Schroeder
and Maurice will probably die. The
glucose works were the largest in this
country, and the works of the company
consisted of an eleven-story brick
building used for the manufacture of
glucose and starch, an eight-story
brick building used as a powerhouse
and as place for making the cattle
feeding product, an eight-story brick
building used as refinery, and an
eight-story storehouse.
There were perhaps 125 men at work.
It Is known that some OF the men es-
capped by the fire escapes, and some of
those on the lower stories jumped into
the canal. The chances are that sew
eral men were burned to death. In
twenty minutes the walls began to fall,
and they fell at frequent intervals until
inside OF forty-fi minutes there was
but one corner standing. The main
building was connected with the power
and feed house by an elevated bridge
over Scott street The flames crept
across this and ignited the feed house.
The fish market just across the
street caught fire. Five firemen were
sent inside to fight the flames. The
building was long, low brick struc-
ture. A portion of a blazing wall fell
on it and started the roof to burning
fiercely. In a few minutes the roof
fell in and buried the five firemen
Three Of them escaIe1 with no other
injuries than a few bruises, but John
Weber and Lieut.. Schroeder, of the
same company, were not so fortunate.
Weber was taken out unconscious. His
face is badly burned, some OF his ribs
are broken, and he has also internal
injuries. 1t is question whether he
lives or dies.

III ID
seats set apart for the families of the
President and Vice President were
also occupied. Outside the halls the
corridors were thronged with visitors
| anxious to get into the galleries. and
they stood in long lines awaiting their
turn.
On the floor OF the Senate were fully
| fifty members of the House of Repre-
sentatives, all anxious to hear what
the Senator from New York had to
say upon the tariff question. Mr.. Hills
speech was disappointing in that 1t
made no definits announcement as to
his purpose regarding the final vote on
the tariff bill, If such a vote is ever
reached. 1t was expected that he
would attack the President and some
OF the views Of the administration,
and 1t was also anticipated that he
would violently assail the chairman of
the Finance Committee and the men,
bsrs who had directed the formation
of the tariff bill.
The Senator met the expectations
upon these points, for the opening
direct reflection upon the President.
Later along he criticised the Hawaiian
policy OF the administration and paid
his respects to Secretary Gresham
with the declaration that the Secre-
tary of State was not Democrat.
Eventually he got around to Mr.. Voor-
hees and the Finance Committee, and
he pitched into the Chairman in rather
pointed language. His remarks in this
particular were not such as are calcu-
lated to create harmony between the
opposing factions on the Democratic
side of the Senate regarding the pend
ing tariff bill
Senator Hill is criticised even by
some of his friends for having INDUCED
such course at so critical time. Mr..
Hill read his speech from printed proof
slips, though he appeared to need the
copy only for occasional guidance, his
delivery being as free and natural as
If he was speaking extemporaneously.
His voice and pronunciation were such
as to render every sentence distinct
and forcible. He was frequently inter-
rupted by applause.
The main portion of his speech was
an argument against the income tax,
and it is regarded as unusually strong.
Few of the Democratic members,
however. believe that the income
tax provision will be stricken out.
The Senator clearly intends to vote
against that provision of the bill, and
it is now understood that he will vote
against the entire measure il the in
come tax is retained in it. In view of
this fact it is reasonably certain that
Senator Hill may be counted among
the opponents Of the bill upon its final
passage. That is the calculation by
the friends of the measure since hear
ing his speech. Mr.. Hills speech on
Monday marks the beginning of q
critical period in the history of the
pending tariff legislation.

AHEAD OF LAST YEAR.
Winter Wheat Crop In Various Sections
Makes n GOOD Showing

Winter Wheat Crop In Various Sections
Makes GOOD Showing
The condition of winter wheat on
the first of April, as reported by the
statistician of the Department of Agri-
culture, averages SO. z per cent. for the
entire country, last year the average
being ia. In 1892 it was S1.2 and 96. 8
for the year of 1891. The correspond
ing average for rye is 94.4 per cent.
The averages of wheat for the principal
States are as follows: Kentucky, SO;
Ohio, so; Michigan, So; Indiana, 80;
Illinois, 81; Missouri, 8s; Kansas, 72;
Nebraska, IS; Iowa, 81. The average
date of seeding in the Ohio and Missis-
sippi Valleys was late, owing to the
dry weather. In general, however,
the conditions Of soil were not unfavor-
able to planting and termination.
Very little damage is reported from
the Hessian fly, and that only In Sec
tions of Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Mis-
souri, and Kansas.
The weather from seeding time until
recent cold waves swept over the coun-
try, except in cases hereafter noted,
has been very favorable to the growth
OF the plant. In the Eastern, North
ern, and Northwestern States snow
covering has afforded protection in ad-
dition to that Of a mild temperature.
The returns in regard to the effects
upon wheat resulting from the recent
cold spell are not so satisfactory nor so
conclusive as desirable. The injury to
the crop is considerable, il not great,
but the Comments of the correspond
ents accompanying the report would
seem to indicate that the full extent of
the damage was net fully determinable
at date OF transmission. In the East
ern and Northern States the damage
was comparatively slight. In the
Southern Atlantic and Southern
States the damage is marked and
decided, with perhaps the exception of
Texas. While In the States OF Ohio,
Indiana, Michigan and Kentucky the
injury from frosting is considerable,
the extent OF same Is contingent on
future meteorological conditions. The
returns indicate that freezing to the
ground was quite prevalent. especially
on low and rich moist land, but with
roots left untouched, or at least alive,
with good prospects OF recuperation on
the recurrence of favorable weather.
In the States of Kansas, Nebraska and
California the impaired condition Of
the crops has not resulted so much
from the frost as from cold weather.
High winds are also noted by Kansas
correspondents as one of the causes Of
unfavorable conditions. Rain Is much
needed.

THE JENKINS INQUIRY.
Investigation OF the Judges Act Regarding
Union Pacific Employees.

Investigation of the Judges Act Regarding
Union Pacific Employees.
The Congressional investigation oi
Judge James Gray Jenkins for his ac-
tion in enjoining the employees of the
Northern Pacific Railroad from strik-
ing was begun in Milwaukee Monday.
Representatives Boatner. Terry, and
Stone, who comprise the subcommit-
tee of the House Committee on Judi
ciary, which was appointed to conduct
the inquiry, began the work assigned
to them.
Chief Clark, of the Order OF Rail-
way Conductors. and Chief Sargent,
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen, were the two witnesses be-
fore the committee Monday. Their
examination clearly defined the atti-
tude of organized labor toward the ac-
tion OF Judge Jenkins. 1t was admit
ted that no actual harm had been done
to the Northern Pacific employees by
the celebrated injunction of the Federal
judges, yet the claim was made-and
In no ambiguous language, either
that these writs were fraught with too
much danger to organized labor to al
low them to 60 unchallenged. The
statement was boldly made that the
strike was labor's only weapon OF de-
Tense, and that 1t did not purpose to have
that weapon knocked from its hands by
Jenkins, Dundy, or any other Judge.
The issue was squarely joined whom
Chief Sargent told the committees: AWe
object to any court saying to US, you
must accept these conditions, whether
you like them or not" The far-reach-
ing effect of the Jenkins injunctions
was shown when Chief Sargent gave
his Interpretation of them. Here Il Is:
"If /, as an individual employe, should
quit the service OF the Northern Pa
cifc receiver, and such quitting should
embarrass the operation of the road, I
would be liable TO punishment for con-
tempt Of court"
Chief Sargent did not hesitate to tell
the Congressional committee that he
had openly defied the supplemental in
junction which restrained the chiefs
from meeting with the men and advis-
ing them regarding a strike.
