Amusing Mistake.

amusing WhthNes
BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 26.-The Pres
ldent of the United States was refused
admission to the Grand Army camp this
morning, although he had come at the
special invitation of the veterans. and
everything was in readiness to receive
him,
The incident proved one OF great NOR
tihcatlon to the Grand Army leaders,
and excited indignation among the
members OF the local committee To
the President himself It was q trifllng
annoyance. but few minutes after the
episode, he was having hearty laugh
over It and eXcusing the official who re-
fused him entry, by saying that the
man was perfectly right to obey orders,
no matter who demanded admission.
The reason for the refusal was that
the sentry had been ordered to admit
no carriage to the camp.
Later the President visited Caguga
Island, the site OF the Pan-Amerlcan ex-
position. and with mallet on which his
name was inscribed, drove n stake In u
grass plot IN the center OF the island.
Returning from the island. the Presl-
dent lunched with Frank Baird, and
then with Mrs. Mckinley, General and
Mrs. Alger and Mr.. Fred Alper, board

part to-day in the demonstration
against the working miners. Early this

cred at the camp and with flags and
banners marched along the roads lead
ing towards the tipple. On their way
they met a number OF miners going 10
the pit and they greeted them with yells
and jeers. They derided the miuers
who were working and ridlculed them in
n manner which caused many OF them
20 hang their heads In shame. The wo-
men say they will make a demonstra-
ton every day hereafter.
The strikers claim that only fifteen
men were at work In the Oak Fill mine
to-day aud that the output yesterday
was only thirty-fve pit cars, while the
company says that slxty-fiye pit cars
were mined. Superintendent S, C. De-

FIRE IN PITTSBURGH

Involving . LOsS OF sl8S,0OO Worth of
ProPsrty-seVsath Avenue Hotsl Msds q
Marrow Escapo-Two Firemsn and Two
Boys Killed by Falling Walls.
PITTSBURGH, Aug. 2s.-Fire this
evening caused the loss of s1sSoOo
worth of property, injury to two Are
men and created panic In the Seventh
Avenue hotel.
About $50 flames were discovered In
the five story building at 6s7 smithaeld
street, occupied by Edmundson & Per-
rine's furniture establishment, and
gained such rapid headway that the
building was a mass of flames before
the engines reached the scene. In a
very short time the building was en-
tlrely destroyed.
The fire originated from the explosion
of gas engine in the cellar.
The building is II shaped. running
back from It's smlthheld street front to
a ten foot alley in the rear. separating
It from the Seventh Avenue hotel. the
extensions extending. to Seventh ave-
nue. and Strawberry alley.
The guests of the hotel, numbering
15O were nearly all at supper at the
time the flames were seen pouring from
the rear windows OF Edmundson &
Perrines building. A small sized pam
ic ensued and rush was made for the
exits.
Fortunately no one was hurt, but the
excitement ran high fora time and the
Railways were soon filled with trunks
and baggage OF guests who were all
| endeavorlng to save themselves and
belongings The fire burned the
kitchen and part OF the dining room Of
the hotel, but was extinguished before
reaching the sleeping apartments, and
| all the guests returned TO the house
after the fire.
A portion OF the rear wall OF the fur
niture store fell into the alley, catch-
ing two flremen, one of whom, John
Nolan, was pretty badly hurt, but not
seriously so.
Several buildings adjoining the burn
ing building were damaged by water,
the aggregate loss amounting to about
5000.
The other losses are: Edmundson a.
Perrine, 100000 on stock: insurance
$4,000. John Daub, owner of building.
$4,000; insurance $1,000. Seventh Ave-
nue. hotel, $4,000; fully insured.
At II o'clock. after the fire had been
subdued and the fremsn were coupling
up their hose, the Strawberry alley
wall of the Edmundson & Perrine COM
pany fell, burying under the debris two
firemen. zeke Glover and Harry Holt.
Two boys who were watching the fire.
men work are also supposed to be un-
der the fallen wall. A large force OF
men were put to work at once to get
the victims out. AS the wall was three
stories high the progress OF the rescu-
ers was slow. At 1850 Holt's dead body
was recovered and Glover's was reach
ed soon. Both men were married and
lived in Lawrenceville.
The hunt Is still going on for the
bodies Of the two boys.

PITTSBURGH. Pa, Aug. 26'-Colonel
". p. Rend, the Chicago operator who
created something of scene during the
recent Joint conference of miners and
operators by making charges against
President Ratchford. returned from
Buffalo to-day. When told that his
charges had created considerable ex-
element, and that intImatlons had ben
thrown out that libel suit might be
entered against him, Colonel Rend said;
Let him sue me- am ready to prove
what charged and think 1t would be
good thing for the country II It were
proved. That st. Louis convention
could not set itself a better Job than in
yc;tigate this matter. made Dolan I'm
offer to present Ratchford with the evil
dence, but It was not accepted"
Speaking OF the strike generally, Col
onel Rend declared It is now certain the
miners will lose 1t. He anticipates that
within the next few days new men will
be brought In to start some of the pits,
but even II this is not done. and the
mines remain idle. the men will never
get such another golden Opportunity as
they have rejected. He says their great
mistake was In supposing the operators
were ready to give in because they
sought arbitration.
He declares that nIl the large fake
shippers are firmly determined TO resist
the demands OF the miners. II the min
ers had accepted the first proposition
made by the operators at the conference
on Friday, they would have made sub
stantlal gain, and would have improved
permanently their condition.

PITTsBURGH,Aug. 26.-It was learn
ed to-day that in the event OF the plan to
start mines maturing, several mines
along the Baltimore & Ohio railroad are
to be among the first started. It is ar
gued that the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
Company Is now in the hands of a re-
celver and any interference on the part
of the strikers to prevent loading of cars
belonging to that corporation would JUS
tify an application to the United States
court for protection at the hands OF

ed upon he would be willing to make a
statement to the convention.
