1000 Yards of Fine French Pique,
Disastrous Fire at Denver.

AT the burning OF the st. James Hotel at
Denver, Colo, last Sunday night, all but
one member of Hose Company No. 3, COM
posed of c)lored men, lost their lives. The
Unfortunate men and four others were
cropping about in the binding smoke in the
rotunda OF the hotel when the tile and CO.

the basement, where the four were man
gled and suffocated. The other four fire.
men managed to climb out, though badly
bruised and lacerated, and nearly over
come by the dense smoke. The fire,
which originated in the basement, had
eaten away the supports Of the floor, caus
ing it to fall, and the smoke was so dense
the men were not missed. 1t was only
when the firemen reached the basement
from another entrance in search Of the
origin of the fire that the bodies were found.

Spain FavOrs a Peaceful Solution.

THE leading politicians at Madrid are not
in favor OF letting the Alliance affair result
in serious diff ference between Spain and the
United States. They think this matter
ought to be settled easily unless the United
States insists upon demands injurious to
SPANS dignity Spain is most anxious to
maintain the friendship OF the two coun-
tries and would even prefer to waive an
over close investigation and accept the
Washington view rather than risk quar-
rel. Some of the leading journals argue in
this spirit with view to preventing public
indignation in case the government yields to
the United States.

of the things with which he be,

abroad recently was the possibili
ties of tourist travel. In Florida

it as Entertaining one-lungers. ~

thing to make man think the

A DISPATCH from Washington
says that vigorous denial is made
in Administrator circles of the
story that Secretary Gresham is
about to resign. The Secretary
himself will not be interviewed
not caring to dignity the report by
a denial. 1t is fact that the Sec
rotary has been in i'll health for
some time, and the recent attack of
neuralgia of the stomach left him
much debilitated. He has been
unable to secure rest in Washing
ton. owing to the frequency with
which delicate and embarrassing
diplomatic questions have been
forced upon him, and it is probable
he will yield to the solicitations of
his family and friends so far as to
take short leave of absence and
go to his home in Indiana, and
perhaps stop for a short time in
Chicago.

IN A very few months now there
will be fifteen more miles of public
railway on the island Of Oahu,
opening up many thousands OF
acres of valuable lands. Such a
prospect in a community of this
size in the United States would
cause a boom. THE STAR is
glad the effect isnot produced here.

and solid, material advancement
that is being fostered by Mr.. Dilling-

In THE morning paper a new
envoy to Japan is suggested. We
presume that an arrangement &c
replace Mr.. Irwin has already beer
made. In this connection THE
STAR will submit thought which
some appear to be afraid to enter
tain, but which will touch a popu-
lar chord. This is that a new
treaty with Japan be negotiated.
The convention now in force is
unsatisfactory to the great body of
the people supporting this Govern
ment. Japan being a business
country with common sense, would
in all likelihood readily enter upon
consideration of the subject. She
has made several new treaties
lately and is working on an i'm
portant one now.
