IDAHO MAN WOULD Use GUNS |
THE CLIMAX OF TNCENDIARY
SPEECHES AT CHICAGO.
One Man Wants to Get at the Capital
lists Before the Army Is Increased
Catch Them Before They're
Ready.

Chicago, Sent. 29.-There was a Lively
rory at the National Labor convention to-
day and for a time during the proceedings
ii looked as II an exchange of blows could
not be aYerted. DR.. u. S. Taylor, one of
Mayor Harrison's cabinet officials, was
present as u delegate and he wanted the
privilege or speaking in regard to the
platform which had been submitted by
the committee on resolutions But the
majority of the delegates seemingly dad
not wiSn the doctor 10 speak. Tine dele
gates expressed approval, however, when
The doctor said: II am highly gratitied
at the money plank in the platform The
money plank calls for legal tender
money to be isuued direct by the govern
menC. The doctor quickly followed this
announcement with a plea TO nave lhe 10
to idea put in the platform, to the ex-
clusion of the money plank already re
ported. TIT audience instantly turned
against him and an uproar ensued which
did not cease until the speaker sat down.
A three days session of the labor con-
vent!oh ended this afternoon in q cli-
BanniSter of st. Louis, chairman of
the convention, resigned the gavel TO in
troduce q resolution advising strikers in
general to arm themselves for resistance
when necessary.
i. R. Greedon of Idaho was one of the
most radical speakers. He said: THE
we adopt this resolution it Will make the
St Louis convention the largest gather
ing or Worklngmen IN the history OF the
world Every advance of the human race
has been gained with guns, and We mast
use them. This is the best thing that has
been. introduced into the convention. It
is what my people expect
NJ. J. Mccarthy of Chicago opposed the
resolution as matter of policy on the
ground that 1T was not well to warn the
pubic of their intentions. He said: Gen
eral Miles mas already asked that the ar
my be increased to 225 900 men. and we
dom want to give these people any warn
ing before we go at them, or that recon-
incubation will be followed. 1t is poor
poIsst FSfo discuss this in open convention,
because we can never get at the capital
lists if we allow them to prepare. We
must catch them before they are ready
e. NJ. Bannister, in speaking in defense
of his resolution, said it was right Arms
should be met with arms. This conven-
urogl. ne declared. would never have been
called had it not been for the Hazelton
murders. and some action must be taken.
a motion to lay the matter on the table
was carried after McCarthy's speech
about it being poor policy.
The western delegates secured a free sill
Yer amendment TO the platform. They
said they were empowered to announce
that if it were not passed not a cent more
of money would come out of the west to
assist the. eastern men in strikes and
other troubles.

much of anything in the last race So,
with the odds of two TO seven against
Ben Brush, it was not surprising that

AN EVEN MILLION DOLLARS,
BIGGEST FIRE OF RECENT
YEARS AT WASHINGTON.
Originated In the six-story Building
OF the Capital Traction Company
and Spreads to Adjoining Prop
erty-Fireznen Work Hard.

Washington. Sept. 29.-Fire broke out
in the central power station CT the
Capital Traction company a few min
utes before Ii o'clock tonight, and in
two hours the huge six-stcry building
was reduced to a few crumblinS walls
The building occupied the entire block
from Pennsylvania avenue to C street
ard from thirteenth street to Four
teenth street. The blaze started in the
southwest corner and swept like wind
through the enormous building. The
heat was so intense that the firemen
were driven from the adjoining streets.
When it became evident that no efforts
could save the power station. the de-
partment turned its attention to the
adjoining property, but the flames
leaped across Fourteenth street on the
west to a big livery stable and then
across Thirteenth street On the east
and attaced q row of tnree-s'tory brick
houses. So fearful was the heat that
the firemen could not get within reach
of the burning buildings. They were
driven back foot by foot until the
streams of water could not reach the
fire. The entire fire department was
on the scene, hut SO fierce was the con-
fiagration that their efforts were futile.
The power house vas built four years
ago. 1t was six stories in height, and
besides containing the power plant of
the Pennsylvania avenue lines of the
CAPITAL Traction company was occupied
by dozens of offices. The walls began
to fail by IL o'clock and with the de
creasing heat the firemen were enabled
to get TO work on adjoining property.
Several houses, however, were Quilted.
The loss will be about 100000 on the
building and about 100000 on machin-
cry and stores, while the loss sustained
by tenants VIII amount to 100000 more,
making the total damage S1,000000. The
loss on adjoining buildings is not large
as those burned we're old and dilapi-
dated.

NEW CASES OF YELLOW FEVER
AT NEW ORLEANS 1T IS DUE TO
CARELESSNESS.
Edwards, Miss, Reports Total Now
Of Nearly Three Hundred-Per-
ceptih1e Decrease at MobiIe-At
Other Points South.

New Orleans, Sept. 29.-Today has
been a record breaker in the number of
new cases of yellow fever reported
while the deaths eoualled in number
those of any day since the yellow fever
was first discovered in the city There
are various reasons given for the
spread of the disease, but the principal
ones are tWo-that the weather turned
warm again and owing to the much
wider field to cover, the board of health
has had some difficulty in getting every
house as closely guarded as was pos
sible when the cases here were few in
MURDER and the trained officials of the
board were stationed about the quar-
antined houses. The fact that the death
rate has been small and that the
chances of an epidemic have been con-
stantly growing less have made the
general public somewhat careless and
there has been increasing friction be-
tween the quarantined people and the
authorities. Imprisoned inmates of the
houses have been going over back
fences and sneaking out Of side doors
in order not to be confined and the re
suit has been that germs have been
scattered and rapidly developed in
these warm days. In no other season
have the authorities been more strict
in quarantining houses and isolating
inmates who might be around the sick,
and the result has been that every pos
sible effort is being made by certain
clements of the community to get the
better of the board. The increased
number of cases here has caused no
general alarm because the increase of
deaths has not been in proportion. The
death rate is d trife under 70 per cent,
whereas five or six days ago it was
shown to be above 10. The conclusion,
therefore, is natural, that there IS no
increase in the malignancy of the dis
ease. The authorities here still believe
that fer some time longer the new
cases VIII occasionally exceed the num-
Der on the books today. but they are
singularly one in the opinion that the
disease cannot attain the proportion of
an endemic
