RED FIRE.
Celebration Occurred a Little
Early in the Cam
paign.
Special to News-Democrat.

SPNSi1i W
Columbus, Sept. 21. The Democratic
executive committee experienced a bap-
tism of fire last night. 1t was fire such
as was issued in melodramas and IN
victorious campaigns. 1t called out the
entire fire department Of the city.
1t seems that in the rear of the house
on Third street where the committee
holds forth there was a quantity of red
fire stored away. 1t had been left over
by the Republican committee who oc-
cupied the house in former years. This
evening about 80 o'clock Mike Muir
ply decided 1t was time to close up. He
went into the rear basement to close the
door, and to find the bolt he had to
strike q match. He threw the burning
match into the corner, and the next
minute Mr.. Mike Murphy was the worst
He yelled bloody murder and shouted
fire.
Chairman Seward and Secretary Ed
son were just leaving for home. They
rushed to the rear of the house and
there found Mike doing a one-act melo-
drama and dividing the center of the
stage with a wild, fierce flame that
seemed about to envelop the building.
Without waiting to witness the grand
finale and tableauX that followed, Ed
son rushed to the telephone and turned
in a general alarm.
The fire went out when all the powder
had burned up and 1t left a halo of sui
phurous choking smoke hanging over
the building. Dense clouds filled the
rooms.

TREATY NOT REJECTED.
Exact Status of Samoan Question
Changes Do Not Involve the Brit
ish-German Agreement.

London, Nov. 29.-It is officially re-
ported that the statement that the
United States has rejected the agree
ment between Greta Britain and Ger
many regarding Samoa and has submit
ted a new draft of an agreement is mis-
leading. A representative of the press
has been informed that the exact status
of the Samoan question is as follows:
Consequent upon the signing of the
Samoan treaty between Germany and
Great Britain, to which the United States
had signified its assent, there was drawn
up new form of agreement between
Great Britain and the United States. This
was necessitated by the new order Of
things, but in nowise affected the validity
of the German-British agreement, which
included spheres of influence in Africa and
other matters entirely foreign to American
interests. The statement that the agree
ment has been rejected is based, accord
ing to the British officials, entirely upon
the suggestions made by the United States
of change in the wording of the draft of
the agreement between herself and Great
Britain. These changes are entirely gram
matical and will be acceded to. That The
United States submitted a new treaty af-
fecting the three powers concerned is en-
phatically denied, as, it is pointed out, the
United States, though consulted, was not
a signatory to the British-German treaty.
1t is presumed that the United States has
pending with Germany an agreement SIM
liar to that with Great Britain. But, in re-
lation to the draft, over which differences
as to the wording arose, Germany has no
concern. The foreign office expresses en-

Discuss the Message.

The cabinet meeting Tuesday was de-
voted almost exclusively to the consid-
GRAFTON of the presidents message. A
large portion of the message was read
by the president, after which the mem
bers entered into long discussion of
the policies and recommendations it
contained. 1t met with general APP
proval, and after the meeting had ad-
journed several of the members ex-
pressed the opinion that it was an un-
usually strong and able document.
Civil Government for Cuba.
The protests which the cable re-
ports from Cuba say some of the Gu
bans are making against the reported
establishment of civil government in
Cuba were incidentally brought to the
attention OF the cabinet by Secretary
Root. None of these protests, how
ever, have been officially received here.
Secretary Root said, in answer to a
question on this subject, that there was
no immediate intention of establishing
civil government in Cuba. This, how
ever, must only be taken to mean that
no decision has yet been reached con-
corning the appointment of a civil gov
ernor, which has been under consid-
Grafton for some time. But it can be
stated upon high authority that the
alleged lamentations now going on in
Cuba against the establishment of a
civil government may result in allow.
ing the present military government to
continue longer than it otherwise
would. The administration does not
seek to force upon the Cubans civil
government that would be offensive tc
the majority of the inhabitants of the
island.

TRANSPORTS ROUGH EXPERIENCE.
Victoria Puts Back After Staring for
Manila with Horses and Mules.

Victoria Puts Back After Staring for
Manila with Horses and Mules.
Seattle, Wash, Nov. 20. - With car
go of dying horses and mules and IS
empty stalls, the United States trans
port Victoria returned to port late Mon
day night, having been forced by an un.
precedented stretch of weather off Cape
Flattery to turn back on her voyage to
the Philippines. Of the 40 horses and
mules carried by the Victoria, taken on
board November %, IS were literally
their stalls in the storm and the remain
ing animals are SO badly bruised that
the officials of the vessel believe that
many cannot be saved.
The Victoria sailed for the Phil.
ippines November 30. AS the straits
were neared high and dangerous sea
was encountered and the ship pitched
and rolled heavily, shipping seas fore
and aft. The stress of weather in.
creased as the Victoria advanced to.
ward the open ocean. On the morning
of November "a the vessel was round
ed just outside the straits with hel
head to the wind. At four o'clock OF
the afternoon of that day she was
tossing on the crest of the waves, de
scribed in the log as mountain high
and the strong gale blew thick with
binding mist. The transport laboret
heavily during the night and early
next morning steamed away to the
west, but began to roll SO dangerous
ly that her head was again brough
around to the wind. This day was :
repetition of the preceding, with tn,
addition of terrific squalls. The roll
ing and pitching of the ship now be
gan to have its effect upon the an
finals confined in their stalls. The,
had been pounded from side to sid
until they were in a state of utter ex
haustion. Several died during tn
night and the next morning, and con
slant attention of Veterinary Surgeo,
Payne and stock hands seemed DOW
erless to save them.
Under such circumstances it wa
deemed best, after consultation between
Capt. Michaels and his officers, t
round the ship and head for Seattle
During the trip in several more horse
died, bringing the number of death
up to IS. The bodies Of the animal
were weighted and thrown overboar
Jas fast as death came.
Purser Lockwood was seen Tuesda
morning and said that during SO voy
ages he has made across the Pacifi
hehas never seen such stress of wealth
er as was encountered by the Vic
toria. The furthest point reached wa
200 miles west of the Cape. While tn
storm was at its height oil bags wer
entirely emptied and everything don
to ease the motion of the ship. Asid
from the loss of animals no other dam
lage was done, the Victoria behaving
splendidly.
