Rochester. Nov. ga special to the
Democrat end Chronicle from Perry,
n. Y, says:
A whole family persisted in flame and
smoke this morning in the tenement
house on Irving Thompson's farm, sit
uated about four miles northeast of
the village, where resided the family of
Luther Greenmans consisting of hus-
band aged 20; Mrs. Greenman, aged 81;
Aimee, aged 8; Lottie, aged 3, and Ar
thur a bab-r IL months and few
days. The house was discovered in
flames b. Mr.. Thompson at 6:45 a. m.
He rushed for the building and
knocked oDen the front door, but was
driven back bv the flames, which
seemed to be in possession of the
whole interior. He then knocked open
a room window and took hold of Mr..
Greenman. who was burned so that the
flesh came off in ThOmDson'S hand,
and il was all he could do to drag out
the corpse. He was then compelled to
flee from the house, the flames, which
came from the window, almost burning
him. The house was quickly destroyed.
Coroner Matson arrived and the hOr-
ribly charred remains of the family
were taken from the smouldering ruins.
The fire was undoubtedly the result of
a defective flue pipe. Greenman and
his family were burned out two years
ago, barely escaping with their lives.

HAWAII WANTS ANNEXATION.
Desire to Become One of the United
StnteS.

Chicago. Noy. 29.-John W. Foster,
ex-secretary of state, and Mrs. Foster
arrived in Chicago yesterday on their
way to their home in Washington from
Honolulu They spent a little more than
two weeks on the islands and Mr.. Eos
ter's observations confirmed the belief
which he promulgated as premier Of
President Harrison's cabinet that an
nexation by the United States is the
duty of this government.
THE present Hawaiian administra-
ton is waiting for the Inauguration OF
President Mckinley TO make another
effort to have the islands annexed, 8"
said Mr.. Foster. THE constitution I'M
der which the people of the islands are
living at present has annexation as
one of the main things to be striven
for
The islands We're never in a more
prosperous condition than at present.
They are prospecting in a business way,
because the last sugar crop was an ex-
ceptionally good one and the admins
tration of President Dole is the best
that people ever had.
TT is recognized that the ultimate fate
of the islands. if they are not annexed
by the United State, will be annexation
by some other of the great powers. 1t
will be impossible for the islanders to
govern themselves successfully for any
great length of time by the reason of
the clash between the different ele-
ments, Republicans and Royalists and
natives and foreigners. One thing is
settled and that is that the queen will
never rule again nor will the monarchy
be restored. So il remains for the United
States to act without delay or some
other nation viii assume power in the
Hawaiian islands,"

in order to quiet the mob it was given
out that there was no certainty of the
guilt of the prisoners. BY 10 o'clock
