There was no time for further speech

MILLION DOLLAR BLAZE.
FLAMES in Block of Buildings NarrowI.
Escape Being Holocaust.

Cleveland, April 17.-Almost half the
block of business houses bounded by
Lake, Bank, Academy and st. Clair
streets was wiped out by fire Saturday
afternoon, the damage done amounting
to almost 81 200, 900. The flames broke
out in a straWgoods factory where a
| large number of girls were employed,
and that none of them lost their lives
is remarkable A number of persons
were injured, mostly firemen, of whom
nine were burned more or less severely
on the hands and face, but none seri-
ously. Mrs. Mary Mylett was burned
about the head, arms and chest very
| severely, but will recover, and John
Rauschert was burned about the head,
face and arms badly, but not fatally.
The damage done is as follows: Four
story brick building, SO Bank street,
occupied by Meyer Jaskulek packer of
leaf tobacco, $500; four-story brick
block, 81 Bank street, occupied by L. H.
Whitcomb & Co.. and A. w. q j. Samp
liner cloak manufacturers, $l45,tAQ; six
story brick block So Bank street, occupied
by Hart & Co, wholesale milliners, $780,,

rorters Of straw goods, $4,000; five
story brick building, Academy street,
occupied by Comey & Johnson, straw
hat manufacturers $175C00; frame
building, $4,000.
The fire started in the rear of the
second floor Of Comey & Johnson's fac
tory, and in few minutes the whole
Building was ablaze, the 800 girls and
women employed getting out by means
of the fire escapes. Mrs. Mylett sus-

NAILED BY GENERAL ALGER
The Report That He Is Going to Resign
His Portfolio.

Washington, April 15.-Secretary AL
ger last night put an effective quietus
on the persistent reports that he con-
templated retirement from the cabinet
by a positive and unequivocal state
ment that the reports were absolutely
without foundation, and that until
without foundation, and that until
some unforeseen and unlocked for con-
tingency arises he proposes to remain
secretary Of war throughout this ad-
ministratiOn. -at,%>'' s'4 81
Secretary Alger had his attention
called to recent rurhors that he would
resign after the 'investigation into the
conduct Of the War and incident matters
cease, and that his successor already
had been determined upon. He said all
statements of that character were false;
that he has not entertained any such
intention, and that they were instigated
with the evident. purpose Of attempting
to force him. to leave the cabinet. He
said he purposed to pay no attention
whatever to these attacks.
He authorized the Associated Press to
make an absolute denial Of the report
of his contemplated resignation and o
announce once for all. in the strong st
terms possible. that he would remain in
his present office throughout his regular
term of office

A BROKEN PANE OF GLASS
One That Once Cost Citizen George
Francis Train 100000.

A broken window pane once cost
George Ecancis Train more than $780,
600. II was this way Citizen Train,
with the brains of 90 men in his head,
all pulling different ways, went to
Omaha in the spring of 1854. At that
time he was the most talked of man in
America. He had not thing but mon
ey. He bought 5000 city lots, and alto
gether spent several hundred thousand
dollars He boarded at the Herndon
House, the best hotel in sight. The
quixotic Train was regular in only one
thing-his habits. He always occupied
the same seat at the table. One morn
ing pane of glass was broken out OF q
window directly behind his chair. He
protested and was advised to change
his seat He would not. Instead he paid
a servant 10 cents minute to stand
between him and the draft. After
breakfast he expostulated with the
landlord, but received no satisfaction.
"Never mind +" said Train. I'm &C
days I will build hotel that will ruin
your business. -
And he did The contract was let
that day Scores of men were put to
work The site selected was Ninth and
Harvey streets, near the Missouri river.
Citizen Train went to New York and
engaged Colonel Cozzens, a noted caterer
Of that city, as manager for his hotel.
The building alone cost $40, 000 The
furnishings cost $50, 600 more In the
basement was gas plant-the only
one west of ST. Louis. The work was
done on time. and, true to his word, 60
days after he threatened the manager
of the Herndon House George Francis
Train, citizen Of the earth, opened his
hotel, which he called the COzzens
House. The grand opening ball was at
tended by the governor of Nebraska and
his staff. the mayor of Omaha and
many notables from other states. The
house was a blaze of glory and scene
of almost oriental magnifcence. Just
when the big reception was well on
there was sudden fash, a strange
noise, and then-total darknessl The
gas plant had collapsed.
The Cozzens House did fourishing
business for year or two and the Hern-
don House was badly crippled. Finally
Train fell out with his manager and
the place was closed.
After the business part Of Omaha
moved back from the river the HerndOn
House declined and finally relapsed into
a state of innocuous desuetude. A few
years later it became the property Of
the Union Pacific railroad and is still
used as the headquarters of that COM
pany in Omaha.

Principal Development of the Mazet In
quiry Into Gotham Affairs.


quiry Into Gotham Affairs.
New York, April 1S.-In the session
of the Mazet legislative investigating
committee yesterday Richard Croker
was again the principal object of Moss
examination and the most important
development was the probability that
the Tammany chieftain and John +.
Carroll will be the subject of contempt
proceedings before the state legislature
shall adjourn. All during the evidence
yesterday Croker parried the questions
Of the counsel and refused to satisfy
the members With the amount of in
formation he was Wins 10 sive re-
garding matters which he classified as
personal affairs" An adjournment of
the committee was taken until next
Friday morning and Croker was sub
poenaed to reappear before the session
on next Monday morning. Croker re-
peatedly refused to answer questions
and he had several sallies with Moss
that came very near being personal
The chairman of the committee took
such action as would leave Croker in
technical contempt.
When the committee began its in
brought up was resort known as the
Broadway Garden, which had fourished
IN the upper Broadway district for some
time. In this place the alleged robbery
Of the former mayor of Trenton, Frank
Mcgowan, took place. and Simon Butt
ner, the former proprietor of the gar
den, and several of his walters were
examined. Buttner made some startling
charges against Police Captain Price,
and his walters corrCborated, in part,
his testimony.
Assemblyman Hoffman offered a reso-
tuition to have certain prominent men
summoned before the committee be-
cause of a rumor that a certain law
firm 'by and with the assistance Of
other persons, by corrupt methods Sc
cured the passage through the assem-
bly, of the Astoria gas franchise, whose
real purpose was to enable the Con-
solidated Gas company to force con-
solidation of all the gas interests in the
city, to the end that the supply of gas
might be controlled and the price regu-
lated by the so-calied consolidation"

QUAY LOSES FOURTEEN VOTES.
Four of Them Senators-B. II. Jones, of

Four OF Inem SenaCOfS-B. II. zones, OF
Pittsburg, Gets the Anti-0 Men.
Harrisburg, Pa, April 19.-Fourteen
votes dropped away from Senator Quay
st Yesterdays joint ballot for United
States senator. The anti Quay Repub-
leans and the followers of Senator c.
L. Magee of Pittsburg, combined and
cast their votes for b. F. Jones, of Pitts
burg. The break was, started by SEN
ator Crawford, Of Allegheny, who
switched from Quay to Jones and was
followed by Senators Magree, of AL
legheny; Losch, Of Schuylkill and s. OFT,
Of Luzerne. The first break from the
Quay ranks in the list of representa-
tiyes was Clark, of Washington whose
colleague, McLaren, went with him.
Murdoch, the third member from Wash
ington, remained loyal to Quay. Others
who changed from Quay to Jones were
Hosack, Klump, McFarlane, McWhin-
ney. Nsbet, Robson, Shaw and Grodes.
of Allegheny.
When the joint session met yesterday
the most exciting moment of the sena-
torial contest had arrived The strength
of the opposition to Quay was to be
finally measured. Jones is connected
with the firm of Jones & Laughlin, of
Pittsburg, iron and steel manufacture
ers. He was chairman of the national
Republican committee in 1884, and con-
Quoted the campaign Of the late James
G. Blaine for president He was
Blaine's personal choice for this honor.
He has been a lifelong Republican, and
has never held any public office except
that of presidential elector. He was
voted for by Magee and his friends in
the Allegheny delegation at the caucus
which nominated Quay for reelection
