HOW DOES 1T SUIT YOU?
Names Suggested From Non-PoiItlcai NJ
Stand Point for the Various Pros
peetive city Officers.

As matter Of study for our peo-
pie, and at the same time with a
view TO bringing before them the
names of those cons deed available
for city officers. Ia the event the Cur
tbs, or some similar bill, becomes n
law, giving the towbs OF the Indian
Territory municipal governments,
the ARDMoREITE today suggests a
list of gentlemen that, in our iudg-
ment, " Ould maks a strong non par
tisan ticket.
We do not know that il would be
the desire Of either party to put out
a ticket of its own, and the names
given are selected without regard TO
any qualification except exalted TT
ness for the respective positions
enumerated.
In the event OF an opportunity to
elect city officers the ARDMoREITE
comedies the proposition that each
party possesses excellent and sufii-
cient material out OF which TO carve
a good ticket Of its own, but Il is
questionable as 10 owhetherparty lines
should be drawn in our first city
election. IL il should be decided
that the democrats wanted to make
the fight for a democratic sweep, the
ARDMoREITE viii be iu Inc for duty.
We invite suggestions DO and Coz
on the above propos tons, and The
bringing forward OF the names OF
men other than those presented.
We can agitate il we are never al
lowed to nominate, aud thus derive
some of the pleasures that attenc
the constitutional right of American
people to govern themselves.
The ticket given as suggestion is
as follows:
For Mayor-John L. Gait.
For Police Judge-Arthur Walcott.
For City Attorney-Cornelius Har-

The morning times., 1896-05-19

learned that it was Michael Barry, she
heaved sigh OF relief for her own dis
tress, and pity for the wounded man. She
was looking for vii! Geary.
Another moment OF intense anxiety was
at the Clark building, near midnight, and
after the two fearful crashes of the falling
walls, it was supposed that great many
men had been killed and buried in the ruins.
There wasimminent danger atany moment
of tile tumbIing in OF other walls, but the
firemen advanced into the Clark building
recklessly and heroically to locate the spot
in which the men were buried. They
mounted hither and thither over the debris
with lanterns before the fallen timbers had
we'll settled beneath the accompanying
showers of sparks and binding vapor from
the charred wood.
Here is one of them," was heard iU the
deep voice of one OF the hunters for the
victims.
There was rush 10 the spot where aft
erward one of the firenlen had been caught
as in a wise bet wcen two timbers. Just as
the men reached him there was another
crash from above. Other timbers gave way
and descended with roar, striking the
timers beneath. Sparks flew in every di-
rection and it looked as If the heroic
rescuers had themselves been slain in the
attempt to reach their comrades.
AN INSTANT OF SUSPENSE.
There were few seconds of awful sus-
pense, the intense strain of which was only
relieved by the mad rush of the rescuers
from the building-safe. a mighty shout
went up from the crowd, which was re-
ba hac int 4 la
building, still vibrating from the shock
of the parted tinlbers. This was a scene
that will scarcely be forgotten by more than
five thousand people.
AT / O'Clock this morning the third part
OF the front on B street was L dark, black
mass, which was occasionally relieved by
the glare of some dying or relighted flame.
On the parapets these incidental flashes were
frequent.
Down below the open doorways gave
views of smouldcring fires and columns
of mixed steam and smoke, which, lifting
now and then, permitted glimpses OF the
firemen at work.
On Louisiana avenue the crowd was most
massed eagerly awaiting news from the
ruins in which wild rumors had unnumbercd
firemen and policemen crushed and dead.
For hours after midnight the white colum rs
of water playing on the buildings were out
lined from the ill-lighted street against the
blackened and battered walls.
This neighbo rhOod was one OF inCessant
noise, activity and incident til the late
hours of the morning. On the b street side
there was but~little light to show the un-
utterable wreck and ruin of the fire
swept section OF the block.
The morning times., 1896-05-19
FORMER FATAL FIRES.
Similar Disasters Recalled at Which
Life Was Lost.

The big fire last night recalled to many
ofthe men on duty there previous conflagra-
tons in this city at which human LIFE was
lost.
The Stumph fire, at which five men were
killed, mainly by jumping from the high
mattress factory; the Knox conflagration, at
which four firemen gave up their lives for
duty, and the burning of the old Fountain
Hotel, at the corner of Sixth street and
Pennsylvania avenue orthwest, on the site
of the Howard House, where five persons
were crushed to death, were recalled.
The hotel was six story building and
about tweuty-siX years ago it caught fire
and was quickly enveloped in flames. A
surging mass of humanity surrounded the
structure after the blaze had been gotten
pretty well under control, the interior of
the house having been consumed. Sud-
denly the walls fell, crushing a number of
spectators under the mass. Five were
killed outright and several manned.
Probably, however, the Knox storage
warehouse fire more nearly paralleled the
disastrous conflagration of last night than
any blaze which has ever occurred in the
District.
The fire occurred about a. M, and a
general alarm was turned in. The great
buildings at the corner OF Second and B

POLICE ARRANGEMENTS.
All the Reserves Were Out With
Major Moore in Charge:

The police arrangements were in charge
Of the chief. Major William & Moore, who
was assisted by his entire staff Of officers,
comprising Capt Austin, Inspectors Hol-
liuberger, Cross and Pearson, and Lieuts.
Amiss, Kelly, Boyle, Heffner, Swindella,
Teeple, McCathrau, Gessford and Vernon.
The patrol wagons from the nine pre-
cincts were on the ground. They responded
when the general alarm was sounded, and
brought with them to the scene Of the con-
flagration the police reserves of all the
precincts.
The mounted squad of county police, in
charge OF Sergt. Kenny, which had been
ordered down town to clear the way for
the military parade, were withdrawn from
that service before the Morton Cadets ar
rived and assigned to work about the
blazing buildings.
Ropes were stretched on all sides and
the patrolmen had to fight hard TO keep
back tue impetuous and frantic crowds
on the Louisiana avenue side, where the
people appeared to be crazy with excite
ment. Night Inspectors Cross and Pearson
rendered good service and found that
their arctic gum shoes We're not out of
place on the mud and water covered streets.
Lieut.. Amiss and his men did good
service in the rescuing squads on Louisiana
avenue. Major Moore personally directed
the disposition OF bis forces.
