DEAD IN HIS OWN ROOM
Sam johnson Suffocated by
Dense Smoke in His Cabin.
DISCOVERED LAST NIGHT
A Broken Lamp and Charred Floor and
soorched Walls Tell the story-How
1t Occurred Will Probably
Never Be Known.

Last evening about 5 o'clock Sam
johnson was found dead ~ his cabin
in the rear of No. 607 East Front street.
He was discovered by John Peterson,
who was returning from work. The
interior of the house was charred and

On a table stood the bottom OF q glass
lamp, which had been broken of Just
beneath the Oil vessel. Johnson was
lying face downward across q large
trunk when found. He had ~undoubted-
ly been e since Monday night. His
hands were badly burned and his
moustache singed.
The last time johnson was seen alive
was Monday night about II o'clock.
when Mr.. Lindberg and he walked to
his walk on to his. home. Evidently
Johnson had lit h lamp. which broke.
and the oil and flames fell to the foor;
but how it happened will very likely
never be known. The fire. II would
appear from the condition Of the inte-
time and. the door and window being
tightly closed. the room flled with
smoke hat suffocated the man.

five years as coal runner at the lower

hut it is feared that several must

inc mills and Glove City Iron company
have been wiped out. Every manu-
factory and office have been burned
out Bankers, merchants, Gamers and
business men of all description have
nothing left with which to begin bust
ness again. The spread of the fire
may be partly ascribed to the fact
that the firemen lost large quantity
OF hose in the fire. Some of the
burned out people retired in the early
hours of the morning to the open front
opposite the school house. They COW
cred themselves with blankets and lay
down to sleep. All they had was lost.
The loss is roughly estimated at $780,
600, with insurance of $150,0OO. The
London Assurance company is said to
be the heaviest loser. The buildings
on ten streets are destroyed. The
vaults of the bank buildings with

Cincinnati, Sept. II. = The work Of
the thirty second annual encampment
of the Grand Army of the Republic
was happily concluded late in the af-
ternCon yesterday. There was d small
number comparatively in attendance in
the morning, but later the numbers
were increased and the desire to COM
plete the work and turn to other
duties was so great that every one
connected with the business of the en-
campment felt inclined to hurry, and
for this reason, perhaps, the expected
discussion on the resolution from the
pension committee did not occur. The
rule in almost every instance was to
adopt reports as presented and in this
way the pension report went through
without objection, although it was
modified later to take away any inn
preston that might have arisen that
President Mckinley was under CEN
sure The discussion showed remark
able spirit, earnestness and an I'M
usual gift of oratory. But above all
there was a disposition TO take no rad
ical or undignified action. Command
er-in-C Chief Goblin, with all his rulings,
commanded

of the encampnent. He was prompt
intelligent and firm in enforcing the
rules and in conducting the business.
While the encampment was concluded
in the afternoon so that the new ma

all day but until late in the evening.

AID FROM GREAT BRITAIN
Demanded by the Conference at the
Island of Barbados.

Kingston, JAM. Sept. II. The con-
ference of West Indian representa-
tives at the Island of Barbados
passed a resolution formally demand
ing aid from the British home govern
ment as matter of right as being the
only remedy for the industrial crisis,
and also demanded the adoption OF
measures either for the exclusion OF
bounty fed sugar from the English
market or the enforcement of counter
vailing duties. No ultimatum looking
to American annexation was adopted,
although the question was indirectly
discussed as a possible future con-
tingency to Cuban and Porto R1can
competition in the American market
should Great Britain conclude to rem
der the relief demanded. Annexation
to America was not mentioned and the
Jamaican delegate, in an interview,
declared that while annexation to the
United States is improbable the trans
ferance of the British West Indian
islands is impracticable, besides prom

New St. Louis Headquarters.

The Baltimore & Ohio and Baltimore
& Ohio Southwestern Railroads have Sc
cured a long lease on the magnificent
room at Broadway and Locust street in
st. Louis, for the purpose of consolidating
under one roof the freight and passenger
offices now located in that city. The new
location is the ground floor of the Ameri-
can Central Building, with 60 feet on
Broadway and So feet on Locust street.
The ticket office will be in the center,
fronting on Broadway, the freight depart
ment on one side and the passenger de-
partment on the other, with General
Agent Orrs Office in the rear.
1t is quite probable that these offices Will
be even handsomer than the B. & O. New
York headquarters, which are the finest
in that city.
