Gloversville, n. Y. Feb 2.-The Alvord
house, one of Gloversville's landmarks. as
well as the largest hotel in Fulton county,
being a handsome fcur-story structure.
was destroyed by fire yesterday morning.
The building burned with almost incred-
ible apidity and spectators shuddered at
the thought that some of the inmates
would be unable to escape from the fiery
furnace.
There was wild scramble ON the part
of the guests to escape from the building
with their personal property. but many
were forced to flee without saving any
thing. A few of the guests made their
escape by the stairways, but the smoke
soon cut off this retreat.
The next resort of the imprisoned peo-
pie was the windows. As their terror
stricken faces appeared, the great crowd
below watched breathlessly hoping that
all would be saved The guests who were
thus entrapped did not long hesitate tC
take the risk of jumping, though some

STATE HAS JURISDICTION.
HALF OF COLvILLE RESERVE.
Judge Hanford of the Federal Court
So Decides in the Habeas Corpus
Case of Antoine MisheI, Now In
Jail in This City-Land Has Been
Restored TO the Public Domain.

Seattle, Feb 1.-The doubt hitherto ex-
listing as to whether criminal cases arising
in what is known as the north half of
the Colville Indian reservation, in this
state, came under federal or state iuris-
diction, has been settled by United States
District Judge Hanford, who ordered An
tone Mishel an Indian accused of assault
ing another Indian, released on a writ of
habeas corpus and turned over to the
sheriff of Stevens county.
The decision is of great Importance to
Stevens county. The department of the
interior recently notified the county of
ficials that the north half of the reserva-
ton was still a reservation, notwithstand-
ing the fact that it was open to mineral
entry, and that they had no control
over it.
Judge Hartford holds that the land in
volved has been restored to the public do
main, and the federal authorities have no
jurisdiction over it.
Mishel is now in Jail at Spokane for as
sault with intent to commit murder. The
Judge ordered that the accused be held
five days. that the authorities of Stevens
county might, if desired, proceed against
the prisoner.

ADVERSE TO HENRY CORBETT.
Report of the Senate Committee on
Claim to OregOn's Seat.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The report of the
mai ority of the senate committee on priv
ileges and elections in the Corbett case
has been presented to the senate by Sena-
tor Gallery. The commissioner recon-
mended that Mr.. Corbett be not given a
seat in the senate. The Oregon legisla-
ture, the report says, deliberately refused
to perform any of the functions with
which it was charged, one of the most inn
portant being the election of a successor
to Senator Mitchell, and the precedents
are against the seating of an appointee
when the legislature has had an opportu-
nifty to elect. Senator Pettus concurred
in the report of the majority, but files a
separate view.
Senator Hoar presented the minority
report, sstaining Corbett's claim to a seat.
