WASHINGTON, d. G. Nov. 21.--It was
reported here late last night that the
president mad authorized the American
peace commissioners to pay the Span
iards thirty or forty millions to relin-
quish their sovereignty over the Phi

the government that collects the taxes

should be held responsible for the
debt. This lets out the holders of
Spanish Cuban bonds.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 21.-Ohicial

Half Hours,

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 21.-Be-
ginning today, and continuing for a
year, union printers, pressmen and
bookbinders throughout the country
will work nine hours and half day.
The reduction in the hours OF labor is
not in itself of great consequence, for
In many cities these trades work but

change is regarded in labor and indus
trial circles as one of great moment as
being the initiative step In the
struggle of organized labor for un-
iversal eight hour work day
The general reduction to nine and
q half hour day is the result OF the
agreement reached recently at Syra-
cuse between committees OF the United
etae of America 1.-THE employing
printers), and the International Typo
Pressmep, and Bookbinders'
unions. The agreement between these
bodies further provides that after Nov

YESTERDAYS FIRE.
In the Mexican Central Yards.

Shortly after four o'clock yeste rday
afternoon the Mexican Central wood
yard on the other side of the river
caught fire from an unknown source.
The pile of oak wood stretched along
the track for some two hundred feet
between the water tank and the round
house. II contained from 125 aud 15O
cords, according to the best informa-
tion obtainable.
The flames, famed by the fierce
wind, rapidly spread, and in half an
hour it had reached every part OF the
great stack of valuable fuel. Mr.
Comfort of the Central was on the
ground. He went up to the crowd of
idle Mexicans standing around, q hun
dred of them, and asked them
to help throw the burned wood
out of the way of the fire. They asked
ten dollars apiece for their services,
and they went without the work. No
one turned hand to work until good
pay was promised, and then only a very
few volunteered.
The fire was discovered by the
hostler at the yard shortly after it
started. If the rest of the wood had
then been cut off from the burning
part by cutting lanes through the pile
the loss would have been small, for the
wind, while very strong, WAS blowing
dU TlRut ICE W tHc leuRbn
of the pile. Mexican like, they let her
burn.
The steam fire engine and hose
wagon went over from this side, and
after locomotive had been run up to
the tank and the water turned on, the
fire engine with its siphon in the
tank began to pour water
on the fierce fire in two streams.
The water in the railroad tank was
in little over an hour, aud
the little pumping engine could not
keep up with the powerful steamer.
There was nothingtO do but let the
fire run it's course.
A company of soldiers was ordered
out, fifty strong, tn conserve order"
rs the jefe said.
The fire seemed at one time to
thaeaten the yards of the Sierra Ma
DIRE line on the east, aud Mr.. Ramsey
ordered an engine to be got under
steam at once SO as to be ready to pull
any threatened cars cut of the way.
The lost to the railroad company is
about $3.50 Mexican money.
