Over $4,000 Went Up In Smoke Friday
Night.
The Kendall block on the corner of
Michigan and Lsporte streets was com
pletely destroyed by fire Friday night
The alarm was turned in shortly after
10 o'clock and the fire department re-
sponded promptly. When they arrived
smoke was oozing from all parts of the
building though no blaze discernable.
1t was impossible 10 get at the fire and
as the building was frame structure,
it was q contest for the department
against tremendous odds. The build
ing was occupied by the book and gro
Gerry stores of w. Nj. Kendall, the dental
office of A. G. Hume, the jew elry stand
of J. C.. Campbell and Lou Suits bar
Der shop. Everything was completely
destroyed, nothing being rescued from
the flames. Mr.. Kendall carried an
insurance of $500 on the building and
his stock of goods. Of this Mayor
Jones represents company which car
ried policy of $1,000 on the building;
G. b. 1Ibbetts, representing the Mil
waukee Mechanics Co. had $500 risk
on the book store merchandise; David
Snyder representing the Northwestern
National Co. carried 81 900 risk on the
building, and as representative of the
German Co. of Freeport, ILL.,, carried
81 200 on the stationery goods. Mayor
Jones also represented company with
q $500 policy on the grocery stock. q.
B. Tibbetts also represented a company
with q $1,000 policy on the grocery
stock. j. A. Molter represented COM
psny with q $500 policy on the building
occupied by Lou Suit.
Mr.. Kendalls insurance amounts to
$500. His loss will exceed this amount
considerably.
A. e. Hume's goods were insured for
about two-thirds of their value Mr.
Campbell had his goods insured for
$500. His loss will be nearly double
this amount. Lou Suits effects were
insured for $3.50 in the Delaware and

Among other remarks he stated: In go

Herr Most the leader of anarchy in
America was gold standard man. He
thus stated his reasons for faith within:
81 know that there exists in every part
of the world a gigantic conspiracy to
force an adoption of the gold standard
which concentrates the wealth of the
world in the hands of the few. Men
will bear under it as long as they can,
but when 1t comes to sacrificing not
only their earnings but their future
hopes. When their families are ground
down by hunger, they will 10 longer
stand it. A revolution will break out.
Blood will flow, anarchy will reign and
a new social system shall be established.
Mr.. Windle held up the words of the
immortal Lincoln who prophesied the
concentration of wealth in the hands of
the few.
Thirty thousand men, by actual sta.
tistics are shown to own over one-half
of the wealth of this republic. Show
us one of those thirty thousand men
and we will show you a man who is
gold standard from head to foot. We
will sf,o| you 8 men who contributed
to Mark Hanna's corruption fund in '96.
History's story proved that before
nations downfall her wealth is concen-
trated in the hands of few. Egypt
was in her prime when 80 per cent of her
inhabitants owned her wealth. She fell
when three per cent had gobbled up
what the ninety per cent had possessed
The same is true of Rome which fell
when 1900 possessed her wealth.
The gold standard has many defend
erS but no defence. Some of their
modes of defence are curriosties in pol
itics. There was the big pewter %
cent piece. Mr.. Windle bought one for
which he paid quarter. If Mark
Hanna can sell counterfits in pewter for
face value, surely Uncle Sans silver
dollar will be worth its face value. The
fifty cent dollar is getting the opposite
party in all kinds of odd situations. In
90 a dollar would buy a bushel of
wheat in '97 it would buy but a half
bushel. If that is not clear case of
fifty cent dollar under gold standard
nothing is. This is like the farmer who
drove wagon with such crooked ton
que that one day when he was going to
town he met himself returning home
several times"

Evening News RepudIated.

The Evening News has so repeatedly
misrepresented the publisher of this
paper concerning the Brethren Publish
ing company item of news that we
have taken the trouble to get true
statement from Mr. Joseph SwindelI
whom the Evening News has malicious
ly drawn into what seems to us very
silly controversy. We trust that this
statement of Mr.. Swindells will put an
end to this matter once for all. Here
is his statement
Plymouth, Ind, Oct. %, '9S This
is to certify that c. w. Metsker, the
publisher of the Independent, has not
violated any confidence reposed in him
by me, relative to any item concerning
the locating of the Brethren Publishing

which is now located at Mt. Morris. Ill.

Mr.. Swin1ell also informs us that
while the article sent to the South Bend
Tribune was somewhat premature and
not absolutely correct, it was in the
main as nearly concise as the average
newspaper reports. Mr.. Swindell
added that subsequent actions by the
business men twenty-four hours later
demonstrated that the Plymouth cor
respondent was good prophet, even if
the facts were not fully verified at the

tail dealer in monuments finds il advantageous

and various other points, nearly all or the rep
resentatIye firms maintain offices IN this city,
through which Is transacted large bulk OF the
business done in this line by the Esny dealers
throughout the States. Almost all Of tba mail
orders for monuments come to the local Offices
and arc then transmitted 10 the quarriss, where
the goods made up.
For buyers who come to tho city there Is Al
ways a full line Of plans. sketches and designs
and special ones are furnished upon application.
The trade gives employment 10 many thousand
men, and the goods manufactured by the local
firms arc shipped all over the United States and
Canada Orders executed promptly. and ar
rangements with the railroad and Transports

iards seemed to be relieved at having
arrived at the conclusion of long con
troversy.
Having embodied In the treaty arti-
cles all the protocol questions, the two
commissions will now enter upon
friendly negotiations regarding the
matters suggested in the American ul-
timatum a week ago, matters subsid-
iary and incidental to the principal
provisions, which must form part of

These include the religious freedom OF
the Caroline islands, as agreed to IL
years ago; the release of political pris-
Dners now held by Spain In connection
with the instructions in Cuba and the
Philippines: the taking over of the
Island of Kusaie or Uralan, in the
Carolines, for a telegraphic and nava
station; cable station rights at other
points in Spain's jurisdiction, and the
renewal of certain treaties previously
in force between the United States and

TO THE FOLD
Two Old and Respected Residents PasSet
Away To-day
MRS. QUINN DIES OF PARALYSIS
Attacked While About to Retire Last Night
John McCutcheon, veteran Miner,
Dies From Injuries Received
Several Months Ago

Mrs Margaret Quinn, widow IS years Of
age residing on West street, just south of
Centre street. died at six o'clock this morn
ing from the effects of paralytic stroke.
At about nine o'clock last night Mrs.
Quinn prepared to retire and had walked
about half way up the stairs leading from
the kitchen to the second story when she
received the stroke. 1t affected the entire
left side of her body, and in her helplessness
she fell to the bottom of the stairway, where
she was found unconscious.
The son-in-law of the deceased. Bernard
Bradley, heard the fall, but was unable to get
into the stairway at first, as the door opens
towards the steps and it was kept closed by
the body of the victim resting against it.
Admittance was gained to the second story
by window, and in this manner the stair
way was reached and the unfortunate woman
removed. She was unconscious, and re-
mained in that condition until she died. DR..
W. n. Stein was in attendance for several
hours, but the victim was beyond the aid of
medical skill.
The fall down the stairs had no direct bear
ing on the result The only effects of it was
slight bruise on the face. The stroke OF
paralysis was fatal.
Mrs. Quinn had been resident of thi.
town for 80 years and during that entr,
period lived in the vicinity of the house il
which she died. She was a resident o
Minersville before moving to this town He
husband died many years ago. The surviy
ing family comprises a daughter Mrs
Bernard Bradley, and four sons, William
Quinn, of Philadelphia John, of Brooklyn
Michael, of Chicago, and George, of Mahanoy
City, who is a motor man on the Lakeside
Electric Railway.
