Fighting Fire at Sea.
Crew Have a Long Battle for
Their Lives.

ST. JOHNS,N. F., Dec. 26.-The Brit
ish steamer Lambert's Point, Capt.
Humphreys, seven days from Norfolk,
Va, for Liverpool, with cattle, cotton,
grain and a general cargo, has ar
rived here with her cotton on fire and
the ship in a bad state.
On Friday afternoon the fire was dis
covered in the compartment amidships.
1t gained headway rapidly. Holes were
cut in the cabin flooring, pipes in
serted and the compartment flooded
with steam and water. The captain
headed the vessel for this port, and
for forty hours nobody rested, all
hands battling the fire, which, stead
lily gaining, spread to the fore COM
partment.
1t then became necessary to flood
this, which gave the ship a list Of IL
deg. to the starboard. She met ter
rible weather In trying to reach here.
Her sides and deck were almost un-
bearable with heat, and the provis-
ions were spoiled by steam and smoke.
The paint is now pealing off the sides,
while gangs of men are landing the
cattle, almost maddened with heat.
Capt. Humphreys admits that ne
could not have controlled the fire
twenty-four hours longer. Holes are
being cut in her sides to admit more
steam pipes, in the hope of having the
fire subdued by Tuesday, when the
cotton will be discharged until the

the effect that the United States had
demanded of Spain $S,0OO,00O indemnity
to American traders for damages sus-
tanned through the rebellion in Cuba.
The secretary stated that if any such
demand had been made he had not
heard of it. Judge Day, assistant secre-
tary of state, said: $50 far as 1 know
there is absolutely nothing in the story.

been filed, but even on that supposition

Fixing Up IL Neat Scheme for a Wire
Trust.
CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 26.-There is
talk among steel men of further ex-
tension of the scope of the new wire
trust 1t is now said that efforts will
be made to induce all the steel billet
mills in the country to ally themselves
with the trust, not as members, but
as contributors. The trust will seek 10
induce the manufacturers of billets to
promise not to sell to wire manufac-
turers that may possibly start outside
of the trust, and in return the trust
will promise to take billets from all
these manufacturers as it may need
them. The object of this is to keep the
billet makers in good humor and pre-
vent their going into the wire business
themselves. These who are closest to
the sources Of information express the
utmost confidence in the carrying
through of the plans for the forma-
ton of the trust, and it may be said
that all the negotiations are progress
sing favorably.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-One thing
has been practically settled by the
leaders in the house of representatives;
and that is, that the Friday night ses-
sions of the house shall be dispensed
with for the present. 1t has been one
of the rules of the national house OF
representatives for many years that
Friday night sessions shall be regu-
larly held for the purpose of giving
consideration to private pension bills
and to no other business. Both polit-
ical narties have agreed on this line Of
policy. because the leaders of both po-
litical parties have been seeking the
soldier vote in this manner. 1t is well
known that private pension bills can
have but little opportunity to receive
consideration during the day sessions
of the house, because national affairs
are always given precedence. The only
way to get private pension bills
through the house has been to have a
particular night set apart when no
other business could be taken up. But
all this is past. In the future the vet
Grams who cannot get pensions through
the regular channels of the pension Of
flee must take their chances Of legisla-
ton in competition with all others who
have claims against the government.
This conclusion has been reached as
part of q plan Of economy. There Is

British representation, which Japan
fully supports. Japan is irritated by
the arrival of Russian troops in Corea,
and 1t is believed that she will oppose
them. According to advices from To-
kio Japan has offered to assist the Off
GERS at Pekin in drilling the Chinese
army and to consent to postponement
of the war indemnity. Many of the
viceroys and Pekin officials favor the
proposal. According to a dispatch to
the Daily Mail from Shanghai, it is re-
ported there, from reliable sources that
British force landed at Chemulpo on
Saturday and caused the reinstatement
Of McLeavy Brown. The same dis
patch refers to "a native rumor that
the Union Jack has been hoisted on
an island in the mouth of the river
Yangtse-K -Kiang." The Pekin corre-
spondent Of the Times says: 1.-The
government refuses to place the Likin
under foreign control as security for
the loan proposed by the Hong Kong
and Shanghai bank, and asserts that

no money in the treasury to meet the
expenses of government, unless the ex-
penses shall be cut down. All Of the
general appropriation bills are being
pared and thinned out; and all of the
claims of individuals are being set
aside. 1t is useless to make appropria-
tions of money when there is no money
available.
This conclusion Of the house leaders
will evoke a storm of criticism and con-
siderable abuse. The veterans who be-
lieve that they ought to get congress
sional pensions will claim that, as old
soldiers, they ought to have preference
over claimants. But that is question:
able There are men here vainly try
ing to secure hundreds Of thousands of
dollars which the government has owed
them for supplies ever since the war.
But the government has no money with
which to pay these claims, or private
pension claims; and there is to be a
halt on appropriations.

STRIKERS OFFER TERMS.
Believed That They VIII Accept the
Present Scale for a Time.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Dec. 26.-The
strike feeling among the operatives to-
night is not as strong as it was last
week. 1t is believed that careful con-
sideration of existing conditions has
done much to change the sentiment.
The conference committee Of the op-
eratives, in which are representatives
of all the textile unions. held another
meeting tonight, when the wage ques-
ton discussion was resumed. The
meeting adjourned subject to the call
of the committees secretary.
The only information given out was
that a new proposition to the manu-
facturers was unanimously adopted.
Its details were not divulged, and the
document is now in the mail for Secre-
tary RounZville.
A manufacturer tonight volunteered
the opinion that the new proposition
might offer an acceptance of the cut
down provided the present schedule
was restored when a margin of profit
to be mutually agreed upon shall war
rant such action. BY this he meant
that the operatives will continue work
in hope of better times soon.

ministration. China, in return, would
give Russia a monopoly of the rail-
roads and mines north Of the great

LONDON, Dec. 26.-A Mrs. Jarvis
and her nine children, the youngest a
baby, were burned to death at o'clock
this morning in a four-room cottage
occupied by the Jarvis and two other
families in Dixie street, Bethnal Green,
London. The unfortunate family oc-
cupied the upper floor. By strange
coincidence Mr.. Jarvis, the woman's
husband, who has been suffering from
consumption, died in the workhouse in
firmary this afternoon without having
heard of the disaster. Mrs. Jarvis
earned a scant livelihood by making
match boxes, and her rooms were filled
with infammable material.
