SIX LIVES LOST.
A Fatal Fire Occurs at Hot Springs
Arkansas

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 20.-A special to the
"PostDispatch' from Little Rock,
Ark, says:
Six persons lost their lives to-day by
the burning of the National and Wind
sor Hotels at Hot Springs, Ark. Five
bodies of persons that have been burn
ed We're recovered from the ruins. A.
r. Hudgins of Indian Territory was
killed by jumping from an upper hotel
window. Only two of the other bodies
have been identified, their names being
Abe Matthews of Greenville, Miss, and
w. H. Wells, residence unknown. Not
until after the Coroner's inquest can
the names of the other dead be learned.
A number of persons were injured by
jumping from the hotel windows.
In addition to the two hotels, a cot
tage belonging to Colonel O'Brien and
the Kentucky livery stable were burn
ed. The two hotels suffered the de-
struction of all their contents, but the
horses and carriages in the livery stable
were taken out safely.
The fire started about a. m. in the
National Hotel, and spread rapidly. A
number of guests escaped down the
stairways, while others jumped from
the windows of the second and third
stories in their night clothes, barely
getting out with their lives. Several
who leaped were severely injured, and
one unknown man is expected to die.
Directly across the street from the Ma
tional is the Avenue Hotel, which mar
rowly escaped burning.

pies fell because it was not built on a
national foundation It's decadence

sion. The German Empire of to-day
arose out of a strongly felt need of
union and of common head, and it
reared itself up On the basis of love Of
fatherland.
Il am firmly determined to preserve
with all my strength the work of my
grandfather, and that peace which is
so dear to us. This I shall only be
able to do if we succeed in maintain
ing our prestige with our neighbors. To
this end the harmony and cooperation
Of all the German race and all Ger
man Individuals are necessary.
Il rejoice to see how beautiful May
ence has developed You may be as
sured / shall always feel warm inter
est in your future and shall do in your
behalf all that lies in my power, SO that
you may be able uninterruptedly to live
in civil concord. conduct your trade and
to cultivate your vineyards.
Il shall always be mindful of the fact
that it was from the house of my dear
cousin, where ] am now a guest, that
my grandfather started on his west
ward march, during which, with a firm
hammer stroke, he welded the German
Empire. / thank you for your friendly
reception and for these beautiful deco
rations I beg also to thank you, my
fellow citizens"
Emperor William then shook hands
with the Burgomaster, amid the cheers
of the multitude, and rode off to thu
reviewing ground.

probably followed Immediately, and
doubtless was, carried on the last trip
of the Zafiro.
The action of the British harbor po-
lice at Hongkong in ordering the Zafiro
to leave British waters within twenty
four hours is an action strictly in ac-
cordance with the spirit and terms of
the neutrality laws. This is the view
taken at the Navy Department, whose
officials say the American dispatch
boat since the inception of hostilities
never has remained in port longer than
that period. Permission to remain
longer than that time would be a
breach of neutrality, and an action
against which, in the case of Spanish
vessels at certain points in Western
waters, this Government has protested.
The signing of a protocol, in the view
of the naval authorities, would not alter
the circumstances of the case, as in
the absence of a treaty of peace or
some special arrangements by which
the time of remaining in port could
be extended without breach of neutral
ity, the neutrality restrictions operate
to the same extent as in time of actual
warfare.
