The blaze was confined to the closet, about
$50 worth Of clothing being ruined. The
loss is fully covered by insurance.
AS is frequently the case. hose wagon No.
answered the alarm with only one man on
the apparatus. Chief Smith was alone at the
fire hall when the alarm came in and he had
to hitch both horses and then do the driv-
ing. One OF the men at thig house had been
sent over to No. house on Ind.ln hill, while
Captain Briggs was out ticking a stroll.
This matter of having only one man on a
hose wagon when answering an alarm has
been called to the attention OF the authOri-
ties j number of times but nothing has ever
been done. The levy allowed for fire purposes
is so small that it will not warrant the en-
ploymont OF any more help and no effort has
been made to make other arrangements for
the Improvement Of the service.
Allowing each fireman one hour for meals
three times day leaves practically only one
man on duty during six out of the twelve
hours of daylight.

SEnEnIaHnTnEaEnEsisEaE

Last night the council committee on police,
composed OF Messrs Nansant. Schultz and
Trainor. met at police headquarters and in
vestigated the recent Jail delivery. Chief
B,eman showed the committee over the
jail, and produced the iron bar which 1t was
claimed was used in breaking the lock OF
the outside prison door. After spending
some little time in looking over the jail the
committee listened TO the statement OF Of
fcer Gary. This officer testified that the five
suspicious characters we're confined In the
bull pen and we're not In cells as had been
previously stated Along about o'clock
In the morning in question he left the jail
for a walk down street as far IS Twenty
seventh. This trip Is considered a part of
the night jailor's duties. From the state
ments OF the officers the committee appeared
20 be Of the opinion that it was the fault OF
the Jail and not the policemen, when escapes
occurred.
Chairman Varsant said he would recon-
mend that the jail be given a thorough over
hauling by practical prison builder. Among
the changes contemplated is the placing
OF heavy sheet iron on the bars of the cell
doors so that 1t will be impossible to tamper
with the locks. AS for the outside door of
the jail room the committee will recommend
that q double door be built so that when
an officer enters the cell room he can lock
one door after him. Now there is no way
OF locking the door from the inside and
this gives prisoners an opportunity of sneak
ing out when policemen 60 into the jail.
u was also decided to place bars across the
doors leading into the area way so that
egress from the basement will be Impossible.
One thing which developed during the
investigation was the fact that the jail is
not properly heated at night The fire in
the furnace is allowed to go down so that
along about 8 o'clock in the morning the
prisoners nearly freeze. The attention OF
the landlord is to be called to this fact and
demand for more heat will be made. The
police were not censured at all by the COM
mittee.

COLD WEATHER HURRIEs WORK
Men at tie Exposition Grounds Hustle
Lively TO Keep Warm.


Workmen on the big buildings at the ex-
position grounds go at their labors with
an energy that defes the rigors of the at
mosphere. While the early hours of yesterday
were very cold, the sun came out bravely and
soon warmed the air to such an extent that
working outside was not uncomfortable after
0 o'clock. The snow furry of Sunday did
OF deposit enough heecy flakes to interfere
with the workmen and the heavy timbers
were shifted about with unusual energy in
order to keep up a rapid circulation Of blood.
There was little or no wind, and the tenn
perature was not inconvenient.
Work on all of the main buildings is pro
crossing in a satisfactory manner. The
Manufactures and Mines buildings are we'll
advanced, the roofs OF both being near COM
pletion. When the skylights at the crowns
of these roofs are in place the main roofs
will be complete. The windows Of the Man
ufactures building are being put in place
and the weather will soon be entirely shut
out of this structure.
The trusses for the roofs OF the Machinery,
Liberal Arts and Agriculture buildings are
being framed and all will be ready to raise
within a short time.
The driving of the piles Of the Government
building was commenced this morning.
These are being driven without being peeled
Of their bark, and this, with the frozen con-
dltion, of the ground, makes a little more
work, but does not seriously delay the dr'iv-
ing. The lumber for this building is being
delivered on the ground and is being dressed
by the carpenters. The carpenters will fol-
low the pile driver very closely and the
building will soon take form.
The lumber for the Art building has not ar
rived but is expected within a day or two
A few carpenters were working on the
Nebraska building yesterday but the ma
jority of the force were sitting about the
red hot stove in one of the rooms on the
main floor Foreman Knowles said the build
ing was far enough advanced so that a few
days delay would do no harm and the men
could rest as well as not. as their pay stopped

g fire broke out on the steamer Nahanta, and
before it could be controlled il spread to
the ore docks, the largest in the world.
Two of the docks are on fire and the others
are threatened with destruction. Two OF

not be learned, are known to be lost and
several others are injured. The steamer
was lying at the dock loading o.e. and was
only partially loaded. Shortly before mid
night the crew discovered that it was on
fire but the origin of the blaze is not known.
The crew made every effort to quench the
flames, but brisk wind was blowing. From
the steamer the fire spread on dock No. 4,
which was partly loaded with ore and lum-
ber. The lumber was soon mass Of flames
and from this it spread to the next dock.
