ENTIRE STRUCTURE Quilted WITH

Rumor That Three Men Were Burned
to Death, Although Not Definitely
Verified, Believed to Be True-The
Fire Gotten Under Control at Late
Hour This Morning,

CLEVELAND Ohio, Aug. A.-Flaales
broke out in the Williamson block, on
the southeast corner OF Euclid avenue
and Monument square, at o'clock this
Saturday morning. In five minutes
the entire building, with a frontage OF lG0
feet on each street, was a mass of fire.
The ground floor is occupied by Bien-
field Brothers. drugs; Miners jewelry
store and the Goodyear Rubber Com
pany, the four upper stores being filled
with business Offices of every deslcrIp-
ton. In all there are about sixty tenants
i'll the building.
At this hour (2:3O A. NJ the building
has been gutted. only the walls remain
ing. The handsome new Cuyahogo
building has caught fire in several places,
and the firemen are now directing their
efforts to save that structure.
1t is reported that three men were
burned in the Williamson block, but the
rumor cannot be definitely verified now.
The loss on building and contents will
reach at least $4,000.
LATER-2:40 A. Mt is impossible to
verify the report that three men were
burned but it seems quite probable.
There is no danger Of the fire spreading
any further.

STRIKING BACK
Pasadena Taxpayers Resume the Broadway
Fight Against the Railroad

Fight Against the Railroad
The Pasadena people have not yet given
up the fight, which they have been waging
unsuccessfully till now because the Board
of Trustees was friendly to the corporation,
against the Southern Pacific, to prevent
the building of a track on Broadway.
1t was only lately that the taxpayers of
Pasadena attempted to obtain an injunc
ton against the trustees, restraining them
from passing an ordinance granting the
railroad that privilege. They were de-
feated in the Superior Court because they
had not sought the proper mode to COM
bat the evil.
Now they strike back again. Yesterday
William Morgan, the former plaintiff and
several other property owners, whose to-
tai frontage on Broadway amounts to 1900
feet, brought suit against the Southern
Pacific Railroad Company, the Southern
Pacific Company of Kentucky and j. A.
Muir, superintendent to obtain an order
restraining the corporation, it officers and
employees, from constructing a roadbed
over or across Broadway street, a public
highway The plaintiffs say that the track
and the maintenance of steam railroad
on that street would cause great injury to
their property According to the COM
plaint the defendants have received no
authority from them, nor has the city of
Pasadena passed any ordinance or resolu
ton permitting the building of the rail-
way.
Judge Shaw granted temporary in
junction in the matter on Monday, late at
night.

Sent to the Asylum

Mark German, so, native of Ireland
and laborer by trade, was committed to
Highland yesterday by Judge York. He
is the man who thinks that he is the Gov
ernor of Massachusetts, that the Govern
ment owes him large sums of money and
that he owns the Soldiers Home at Sun
set. While being examined by Drs. Mer-
rill and Mathis he presented them with a
long written and rambling statement
about his various claims. He is liable to
enforce the payment of what he thinks is
due him by violent methods, and conse
quently was deemed dangerous to be at
large. His mental disease is the outcome
of overindulgence in alcoholic beverages.
