Two Cases of Heat Prostration.

There were two cases of heat prostration
yesterday, one of which was very serious
and may yet prove fatal. 1t was that of
a middle-aged white man, who was after
ward Identified as r. S. Douglass of Balt-
more. He was overcome about $3.50 o'clock
in front of 1l9 Pennsylvania avenue and
was at cnce removed to the Emergency
Hospital Doctors labored over him for
hours but during the night he became wild
ly delirious and this morning it was stated
at the hospital that he was in a very criti-
cal condition and hardly expected to live.
From what could be learned about the
unfortunate man 1t seems that he was a
dentist from Baltimore who came over to
this city a couple of weeks ago to secure
employment at his profession. In this he
was unsuccessful. and. as his funds were
low, he began putting up at cheap lodging
houses near the Capitol 1t Is supposed
that the man went without sufficient nour-
ishment for he had been complaining of
feeling sick for several days, so that the
suns rays found in him an easy mark.
Jose Gierow, colored. aged twenty-five
years, was overcome by the heat while at
work yesterday Afternoon. He was re-
moved to Emergency Hospital In the am
bulance, and after several hours treat
ment was discharged as out of danger.

Frank Dent on the subject of organization,
which dealt specially with the features Of
interest to the street car men, whose or

paid is $1,000 per .annum, considerably less
than the rent paid by the District when 1t
occupied it as headquarters of the NUM-

THE FIRE-ESCAPE LAW
Violators Will Be Brought In on
Warrants
Case Of the Bancroft Hotel Notice
Was Served Some Time Ago
Not Complied With.

Building Inspector Brady has concluded
to bring into the police courts the owners
of all large buildiI gs where there are no
fire escapes. as required by law, and the
first prosecution was started in The Police
Court yesterday, when Inspector Fermil-
lion swore out warrant against Col Rob-
ert Boyd, owner of the Hotel Bancroft
corner of 18th and II streets. This hotel
is a four-story building, and attention was
called some time ago to the alleged Viola
ton of law there. 1t is a singular coin
cidence that Congressman Cooper of Flor
ida, who was so active in securing
the passage of the fire escape law, lives at
this hotel. Today the building inspector
addressed a notice to Mrs. Kate Dean
Owens, owner of the owen House on Penn
sylvania avenue. where there was fire
only about two weeks ago, and from where
the firemen rescued several men and wo-
men.
The information filed in the Police Court
yesterday charges that Col. Boyd failed to
comply with the orders of the building in
spector and chief engineer of the fire de-
partment in reference to the fire escapes
ordered for the house.
The Notice.
When the Hotel Bancroft had been in
spected and II was determined to have the
law enforced a notice was sent to the
owner as follows
you are hereby notified to have erected
on the H street front of the Hotel Ban
croft one combined fire escape. stand-pipe
and ladder in accordance with the act OF
March 2, 1895, at the points designated and
of the designs approved by the Commits
sioners of District of Columbia, on file in
the office of the inspector of buildings, a
copy of which will be furnished on appli-
ca ton; and also to place in position, at
points designated, the red lights and gongs
The gongs to be not less than fifteen Q5)
inches in diameter, and to be operated from
the office.
You will please notify the inspector of
buildings when the above work is COM
pleted and ready for inspection"
When the Boyd case is heard, which Will
probably be some time next week. the
court will, in all probability, be called
upon to pass upon the law, and then there
WILL no doubt, be number OF prosecutions
follow.

THE COST OF THE LAST
LEGISLATURE.
[Chatiiaul Record. |

The cost and actual expense of
the late "reform" Legislature
have been much greater than any
Of its Democratic predecessors.
This is no idle assertion nor
democratic campaign lie," but
is the simple truth which can be
easily proved.
In 1876 the Democrats amen q
ed the constitution SO as to Inn
the pay of the Legislature to four
dollars day, for each mem Der,
for a period not exceeding sixty
days, and since that amendment
was adopted not single, solitary
Legislature has cost as much as
our late Douglas Legislature. III
order to prove this statement we
have examined the official re-
ports of our State Auditors from
which we find that the cost and
expenses of each of our Demo-
cratic Legislatures for the years
named below, are as follows:
