A Destructive FIRE IN TOLEDO.
Elevators and Several Large Buildings
Reduced to Ashes Causing Loss
of Half Million.

TOLEDO, Jan. 3.-After enjoying i'm
munity from disastrous fires for about
ten years, Toledo tonight experienced
the worst conhagration in the history
of the city. At ten minutes before six
o'clock flames were seen to break from
the top story of the Quale Eleva.
tor on the river front. Within
fifteen minutes after the first alarm
was sounded the elevator Of
G. A. King & Co.. caught fire and the
heavy wind blowing from the south.
east carried the flames to the chambs
of commerce, seven-story building at
Madison and Water streets. At this
point, while fighting the flames in tho
rear of the Quale elevator, Captain
Frazier, of Engine company No 1, WAS
struck by falling timber and prob
ably fatally injured.
From the chamber of commerce the
fire spread to the 7.story building Of
G. L. Luce, adjoining and occupied as
a Wonderland museum theater by Col.
onel ]. H. Moore. Next to this build
ing stool the 5-story building occu-
pied by West & Truax, wholesale
druggists. In an incredibly short space
of time the buildings were one mass Of
flames. The fire then found its way
into the King block, four story build
ing running half the length Of the
block between Madison and Adams
streets. This was one of the oldest
structures in the city and proved an
easy victim to the flames.
Directly across from the chamber Of
commerce stood the Hartford block,
four stories in height and having a
frontage Of about eighty feet.
In short time this was a
complete wreck To the right of
the Hartford building and adjoiu-
ing stood the thrse.story building
occupied by R. j. Wallace as a saloon,
the Toledo Rubber company, PATS
dental parlors, A. Zeiss & Co., cigars
Jacob Hockenberger, saloon; ]. H.
Roosman, gentlemen's furnishing
goods N. Judd, jeweler, and l. N.
Reed, druggist. The building WAS de.
luged with water TO prevent the fames
spreading and the contents will
be a complete loss. The
personal losses so far are: on the Quale
elevator $l2O, 900, insurance about sos,
900; on the chamber of commeace
$40, 900, insurance about $1O0 900
on the King elevator $50, 1000. wholly
insured; on the King block $4,000,
wholly insured; on the Hartford bloch
$75, 900, insurance $25, 00O The minol
losses will aggregate 800, 900, the in
surance on which cannot be estimated

THE MAN.
THE MAN.
For Congressman-at-Large- e-GALUSHA A,
GROW, of Susquehanna
THE PLATFORM.

Resolved, That the Republican convention
of Pennsylvania, recalled to nominate con-
gresham at large, needs not to be reminded
of the fact that this is re- ponsible office;
that the situation at Washington gives it not
only state but national importance, and that
il invites the fullest expression of public view
on Tuesday, the 10Th Of February next to the
end that all our land may know the tenor Of
current thought upon the most important and
vital issue pre- ented in the Wilson bill. The
simple anticipation Of this measure has
closed Thousands Of workshops 1t has
reduced to idleness two millions
Of workers, and soup houses now displace
former hives Of industry 1t has reduced
values to an amount greater than the national
debt. 1t will enlarge the free list only upon
productions which employ the greatest
number of American workmen 1t will
strike with equal cruelty the farmer, the
miner, the lumberman, the iron worker, the
glass blower and the textile worker. II will
transfer work from our own mills, mines and
workshops to those of foreign countries. II is
sectional in its authorship, and lis all too
plainly aimed at northern industries. 1t
strikes southern industries only where the
same blow reaches greater northern indus
tries 1t fosters the plantation system and de.
stroys the farm 1t is an att mpt
upon the free traders Of the south to
reduce the industries of the north to
the level Of those Of the south. 1t is vicious
in its change from specific to advalorem
duties, the latter inviting foreign undervaluR.
tions and leading to constant and cumulative
frauds upon the revenues, 1t is vicious in re-
ducing instead Of increasing revenues. 1t
will reduce the revenues many millions of
dollars and the reductions will grow with
time. 1t is vicious in compelling the govern
ment to make up these deficits by means of
increased internal and direct taxes 1t is
douby vicious in compelling its supporters to
resort to the most rious war taxes. It Is
wholly erroneous in theory that the less work
there is to do in this country the higher will
be the wages.
The protective poll cy conveys the opposing
thought, and says that the policy which Sc
cures the largest amount Of work ut home is
the one which secures the best wages to the
home workmen. II the Wilson bill does all Of
these things in threats which it conveys, what
will 1t do in its fruition? The Republicans of
Pennsylvania and the people Of our great
commonwealth as well, declare war upon it.,
unceasing war in house and senate, and its
senators and representatives in congress, in
cluding the congressman at-large nominated
today are requested to make this warfare felt
in every wise and patriotic way, TO the end
that by the defeat Of the Wilson bill Ameri.
can workmen, producers and manufacturers,
may resume that prosperity which the coun-
try had but single year ago,
We denounce the unpatriOtic foreign policy
of the Democratic national administration in
the Hawaiian matter.

Declaration OF principles:
l. We demand legislation that will
check and prevent the aggression Of con-

to discover dishonest over-capitaliza
against such ver-capitaliZation.
Second-We demand the maintenance of
true protective system, a system that
will protect American labor against under
paid and degraded European and Asiatic
labor, and secure to American citizens
the American markets; extend American
foreign commerce by adequate subsidies
to American shipping; remove all protect
i've duties from imported articles which do
mestic trust" sand combinations, created to
control domestic production and repTess
domestic competition, have monopolized,
destroying thus at home the benefit which
protection along the frontier is intended
TO secure. Demonstrate that protection
is national question, not class question,
and that protective duties are not i'm
posed for the benefit Of any class, but for
the public advantage.
Third-We demand legislation that will
establish on permanent basis the unre-
strcted use of both gold and silver as
money of the United States, that will
admit to the United States mints 70.

Fourth-We demand the extension o.
our external trade relations with countries
having different soil, climate and products
from those Of the United States and es.
pecially when they use both gold and sill
yer as money, unrestricted in amount and
upon an agreed ratio, thereby establishing
an international trade league.
Five-We demand legislation that vii
prohibit sale of public lands to aliens, anC
the ownership of lands by aliens.
Six.-We demand legislation that will
prohibit immigration of subjects or citi
zens of foreign countries, unless such i'm
migrants intend to become citizens of tn,
United States, and unless they can demon
strate that they have not been of tn
criminal or pauper classes in the countrie
from which they emigrated.

DECISION MAKING PENSIONS NULL.
Soldier Disabled Absent from Command
Ia Not Entitled to Paw

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8. - Assistant
Secretary Reynolds, of the Interior de-
partment, to-day rendered one of the
most important pension decisions that
has been made by this administration.
The case under consideration was that
OF James E Harrison, late of Company
NJ, Third Iowa cavalry, who claimed
pension for gun shot wound in the
arm
The principal question involved is
that Of Lime of duty" and the effect
of the decision will be to reverse a
large number of decisions made during
the last administration in which this
question WAS at issue. This decision is
to the effect that when a soldier re-
ceived disability while absent from
his command, acting for himself and
for his owu pleasure and benefit, he is
not entitled to pension.
