and ten streams Of water were soon
pouring into the building. At 4

Kehoe, as q volunteer, worked in
the front, and helped the firemen
in that position. Chief Of Police

the hose as much as any
Of the volunteers, and through
the efforts Of these steady workers
the fire was confined to this build
ing; although the millinery store
on one side and the trunk store on

AGAINST CHRISTIAN UNITY
The Episcopal Convention Repudiatcs
the Lambeth QuadrilateraI.

MINNEAPoIIs, MINI, Oct. lS.-It was
a signal victory that was won last
evening by the conservative element
in the house of deputies of the Episco-
pal convention. By a vote that was
close, as far as the clericals were con-
cerned, but decisive on the side of the
laymen, the Lambeth quadrilateral,
which has been discussed in every as
pect by the church on both sides of
the Atlantic during the past three
years, and which has proven a sore
subject of contention between the mar
row and broad church parties of the
American church. was scattered to the
winds. and the question of Christian
unity was declared as being c1tside
the pale of the consideration of the
church. The ballot was taken amidst
more evidence OF suppressed excite
ment than has been manifested at any
previous session of the convention and
was the elimination of brilliant de-
bate. in which the parliamentarians,
tacticians and orators OF the body ex-
pended all their arts in the effort to
win votes
The minority, which up to late
hour in the debate had calculated on d
bare majority in its favor. died hard,
| and the scenes during the closing
speech of DR. Huntington of New
York, as with outstretched arm and
quivering forefnger, and every f bre
of his frame trembling with excite
ment. he fairly hurled at the majority

this measure, but you cannot kill it,;
| no, you cannot kill tit is written in
the book of Cod" was intensely

This was the final vote on Dr. Hunt
ington's report, the minority docu-
ment having been Withdrawn to en-
able square vote on square issue:

MRS. WALLER TALKS.
Says He's Been Active in Her
Husbands Behalf.

WASHINGTON, Oct 1s.-It has been
understood all along that the fate of
ex-Consul Waller, who is still held in
Imprisonment by the French at Mar
settles, hinged on the proceedings of
the court-martial which sentenced
him. and Therefore the state depart
pent has directed its efforts mainly to
securing copy of the record Of the
court. Now. that the record is in
Paris careful examination of the
documents is being made, and already
there have been developed some
points in the nature of what may be
fatal flaws. In at least two points it
has been found the proceedings OF the
court-martiaI We're in violation of the
French law, and if such a
case arose in the United States this
would be sufficient ground for the set
ting aside of the pFoce edings and the
sentence. and the release of Waller.
In the first place the court was com
posed of five officers whereas the
French military regulations are said to
require at least seven persons to sit in
the court But more important than
this, it has been discovered that Wal
Ter was not really tried as charged,
but that as the trial progressed evil
dence was taken Oh another charge
not included in the original matter,
and that it was upon what might be
called a supplementary. but irregular
charge. that Waller was convic ed.
Aside from the other points in the
case this matter of irregularitv of the
proceedings may in the end go far to
make up the case of our government
as presented through Ambassador

FUMIGATE-AND DIE.

No G0od-One Moro Death.
The diphtheria does not abate and each
day shows some new case or a death.
Last evening little Elmer Braun was
buried from his parents home at Four
teenth and Chandler streets He had
died during the day with diphtherla.
This brings the list of dead up to 20.
There is u case of diphtheria in the
family of Mrs. N. E. Shay on Cedar
street, in Bates addition.
Another new case is that of Mrs. Clark
at 1859 Lane street Early in the week
the house was fumigated from the case
of Helen Clark, the quarantine lifted and
the place declared safe Now Mrs. Clarh
is sick.
This shows the fallacy of the principl
that fumi cation of school rooms is al
that is necessary. When pupil has
been in the school room SICK and the
fever is on, it spreads to the children in
the room, getting into their systems and
not on the black boards or the cracks Of
the floor.
Fumigation is we'll and proper but the
idea is ridiculous that when pupils have
once been exposed to case that fumi-
eating the rooms where they sat is goin g
to stamp out the disease.
The right method is to keep these
large bodies of children separate. Then
if one case breaks out the forty or sixty
others are not exposed
Last evening the health board fumi-
| gated the Quincy schools and invite

all is well just as at the home of Mrs

is stamped out if it takes all winter.
