BAY STATE BENEFICIARY.
Answers to Suits Entered by Receiver
Filed by President and Secretary.

Springfield, Oct. 4.--The answers Of
President John r. Reed and of Rob-
ert W. Parks, for several years secre-
tary and general manager of the Bay
State Beneficiary Association, to the
suits entered by Receivers Hyde and
Bliss to recover for the defunct asso-
citation money alleged to have been IL
legally diverted by the former officers
from the associations funds, were filed
today in the superior court.
Mr.. Reeds answer IS a general plea
of good intent, and Mr.. Parks not only
boldly denies the allegations of the re-
ceivers, but claims that the association
is in debt to him for money loaned to
it.
The answer of Secretary Parks prac-
tically covers the ground of the reply
to the allegations in the suits filed by
the receivers against all of the original
management of the association after its
return from Boston. The two answers
practically cover the entire defense,
aside from that Of Litchfield manage
ment during the time the association
was located in Boston. Justice j. r.

FEMALE RIDERS.
Some of the Stars Who Will Ride In
Next Weeks Races.

1t is probable that Dottie Farnsworth, the
great cycling favorite, who gave the Ter
rible Swede" such hard fight for the
twelve-hour championship indoor race in
this city last winter, will participate in the
bicycle races next week. She has written
from Minneapolis that she will probably be
able to break her engagement there and
will then come here. She adds that she is
pleased with the plan adopted here of MAX
ing this a ten-hour event to be carried
through six evenings. This is the first race
for a ten-hour championship, and it is also
the last big indoor race for the season
Lizzie CLAW, one of the riders, reached the
city last night from Columbus, o., where
she has been in training for the big event
of next week. She is in fine condition and
expects to win the race. She, too, is pleased
with the idea of having a ten-hour cham
pionship race. May Allen will not be able
to enter the race. She was injured in the
indoor ladies' race at Columbus last month
and has not sufficiently recovered to ride.
She will be laid up for several months.
At the last moment Harry Jeffs, the track
builder. notified Manager Stackpole that he
could not build the Tomlinson Hall track.
Consequently it will be constructed by Fred
Stobbard, who is now in the city. 1t will be
eighteen or nineteen laps to the mile and
will be measured by City Engineer Jeup.

the subject until a later meeting.
The question of the construction of a
street-car loop is just now occupying the
attention of Irvington citizens. Two petit
tions are in circulation, and each one has
numerous SignerS. One faction desires the
loop to go around by Ritter avenue; the
other side wants the line extended further
east on Washington street, thence south
and west to Central avenue The board did
not go deeply into the question of loop
last night, ana time was granted to permit
the factions TO prepare their arguments on
the question.
Irvington people are already talking OF
the town election, which does not come I'M

preaching campaign will be the most holly
contested of any Iryington campaign in
years The terms of three town trustees

will be drawn whether on party principles

At o'clock this morning fire was discovered in
the old brick and frame structure at 12S and 1870
South Delaware street and for half an hour it
was question whether the firemen could save
the shell. 1t was pretty well Quilted within and
is probably as good as totally destroyed. The
building is two stores in height, with a gable
roof and dormer windows making ramshackle

The building occupied on the lower floor
by Hadley Bros feed store at No. 12S. The
south side of the lower floor had until a few days
ago, been occupied by II. Lifchitz & Co., dealers
in jute bags burlap, ETC.. but this firm had moved

a small quantity of feed that was stored there.
back room the second floor was occupied as
a sleeping apartment by the Hadley brothers. In
the garnet there lived on one side Thomas A.
Howard. preacher over seventy years old, and
on the other side woman. The fire started in
the front part of the building. probably from a
stove in the Office of the feed store. 1t spread
rapidly that it cut off the escape of the oc-
cupants of the upper floor They taken out
by the firemen ladders.
1t is impossible to make an estimate Of the
loss. The building was old and of little value
and 1t is said the stock carried by Hadley Bros.
was small. 1t will be almost total loss. largely
from water.
