Some old alleged scandals in connec-

were raked up, but the debate in the
end was saved from a rather sordid
tone by beautiful tribute paid to the

in a short but eloquent speech. He
aroused the galleries to spontaneous
applause when he said that while the
vultures might be watching over the
dark waters of Havana harbor for the

used iii the Hayward execution, was
placed on Moshik by Deputy Clement.

So far as is known two men are dead

their underclOthes and others half
dressed were clamberiug down the
fire ESCAPES in the rear. Others and
the servant girls with them were at
the windows in the front of the build

were cut off from the rear of the
building by the dense smoke. The lad
ders were run up but not before many
OF the frightened people had jumped.
Others, including all the female help,
were gotten out by the fremen. On
the side Of the building many made
ropes OF their bed clothes and sought
to escape in that way. Some of them
succeeded. but in most cases the ropes
broke and the men dropped many feet
to the ground.
1t is possible some Of the missing
men may turn up yet. Early in the
day the list of the supposed dead
ran up aS high as fifty. This was be-
cause mary CT the men who escaped
did not report for work at the mine.
Little by little, however, the list de-
creased as men reported until twenty
known dodgers were unaccounted for
1t is possible, however, that a number
OF transient rOOmers who are not we'll
known may be dead in the ruins. Only
an examination will settle that point,
and this cannot be made until the
ruins cool Off.
