1t is unlikely, however, that some of
the efficient volunteer officers may be
selected for subordinate commands in
the different regiments, inasmuch as
the decision to appoint only regular ar
my officers does not apply to positions
below the grade of colonies.

Courageous work resulted in the res
cue of q large proportion of those who
were employed in the buildings, but
eight of the impetuous and frenZied
ones Were badly hurt in escaping from
the blazing structure.
The Injured
Annie Preteroso, back injured.
Agnes Czneswski, burned about feet
and hands.
Alberta Biens, back injured and left

Frances Novak, feet burned and

All Of the injured women were taken
to St Luke's hospital about 200 feet
from the scene of the fire.
But for the efforts of John Gregson,
an employee Of the company and James
Hughes, an elevator conductor in st.
Luke'S hospital it is probable that
many more of the panic-stricken
women would have suffered injuries.
These men procured a ladder when
they saw the women leaping from the
windows and rescued dozens.
The flames gained rapidly on the
firemen during the first few minutes.
Twenty-Five girls employed in the fac
tory found escape cut off and jumped
from the second story windows. At
neon the flames were under control,
having been confined to the building
where they originally began.
How Fire Broke Out.
The fire is thought to have started
from spontaneous combustion among
soma old rags in the basement. The
building stood at 1452-5S Indiana ave
nue. and was four-story brick struc-
Iure. The flames quickly spread to the
upper floors by way of the elevator
shaft and stairway. The highly in
1iammable nature of the stock caused
the building to fill with dense smoke,
rendering escape difficult for employees
on the three higher stories. The occu-
pants Of the building became panic
stricken and rushed to the windows.
Those who went 10 the front, where
there was a fire escape, were able to
make their way TO the sidewalk by a
ladder from the second story. On the
south side of the burning structure
however, many of the frenZied women

Chinese Student Induced to Return
to Picking.
WAS TERRIBLY TORTURED
HIS BODY WAS BURNED WITH
RED HOT IRONS.
Claimed He Was Accused of Hav-
ing Some Connection With Recent
Chinese Reform Movement = His
Release Compelled By An Ameri-
can Resident of China.

Victoria, 3. c., July 3.-According to
the Peking correspondent of the North
China Daily News, DR.. Yung Wing,
Ii. D., of Yale university was study
ing medicine and law at Yale up to
three months ago, when he was visited
by a Chinese, with whom he left Yale
for the west. II has since been learned
that this Chinese brought to DR.. Yung
Wing letters and papers from Prince
Chang, comforting upon him a position
under the imperial Chinese government
providing he accompanied the bearer
of the letters to Shanghai. The doctor
accepted the position and he and the
Chinese friend sailed on the steamer
Coptic for Shanghai.
AS soon as the two Chinese were put
ashore from the launch which took
them from the Coptic at WooSung, they
were met by a number of Chinese who
bound the doctor and threw him into
a bamboo cage, in which he was
carried to Picking. On the arrival at
the Chinese capital the unfortunate
doctor was imprisoned in a temple.
While there he was horribly tortured,
his body being burned with hot irons.
1t was given out by the local author
tiles that DR.. Yung Wing was inn
prisoned because he was believed to
have had some relations in, or connec-
ton with the late unfortunate reform
movement, but it is alleged that in
reality he was made prisoner by
Prince Chang who hoped to extort
money from his friends. This scheme
was nipped in the bud by an Ameri-
can resident of Peking to whom the
doctor managed to send word of his
predicament and who succeeded in eff
fecting his release.

THE GAME LAWS OF
JEFFERSON COUNTY
Hunters Are Free to Kill Birds Provided
Consent of Owners of Land
Is Obtained.

There has been considerable discussion
among sportsmen during the past few
days on the question of county game laws.
All are anxious to go bunting, but are ig-
norant as to the time in which they may
enjoy the sport
Jefferson county now has no game law,
the same having been repealed It the last
session of the legislature. There was an
act passed, however, which makes it I'M
lawful for one to hunt on the land OF an
other without written consent of the owner.
Shelby and few other counties have a
similar law.
Many are of the opinion that Jefferson
comes under the provisions of the famous
Wallace game act but this idea is errone
Gus, as only six counties in une state are
under the provisions of that law. At the
time of passage this bill created consider
able amusement among the legislators, as
all kinds of birds, including woodpeckers,
canaries, jay birds and field sparro&s, were
mentioned. Among the first counties to
Withdraw from the provisions of, the act
were Jefferson, Tuscaloosa, Shelby, TaIla-
poosa and Walker, the others following in
quick succession. Under the Wallace law
no birds game of any description can
be shot or hunted between the 18th day of
November and the LIST day of March.
Many of the counties that withdrew had
a local law which was quite satisfactory
IN few of these counties game can be
hunted from October 10 to Maron /, but a
majority of them have fixed November 1
as the opening day of the seasons sport
Some have set this day as late as Novem-
Der 10. The fine in most counties is not
more than SIS.
In Jefferson county sportsmen can hunt
game during any month in the year, pro-
vided they have the written consent of the
owner OF lands on which they shoot The
law further provides that the properly
holder Shall institute the proceedings in case
of arrest.
The fields are said to be teeming with
partridges this season, and hunters are
anxious TO take their dogs out for a trial.

THE YAQUIS ARE

MexicanS VIII Soon Invade the
Indians Territory.
NO QUARTER TO BE GIVEN
Beginning of Active and Vigorous War
fare Expected Next Week-For-
midable Resistance to Troops
Advance Will be offered

w.Hoptedo Austin, Tex, October Bin
formation reached here tonight from Or
tizl5, state of Sonora, Mexico, containing
the following with reference to the Yaqui
Indian war:
Military scouting parties reaching une
military mobilization point at TORN, this
state. today. report that large forces Of
Yaqui Indians are being modified at the
base OF the mountains to the north Of that
place near Sahuripa.
1t is estimated that there are fully $3.50
Indians there at present and additional ar
rivals are coming in all the time. At pres
ent the MEXICAN forces. numbering some
5000 troops in all, are modified in or near
Tobin. and 1t is understood that the object
of their concentration at that point is to
move into the Yaqui country at an early
date. probably about the middle of next
week, and open active and vigorous war
fare upon the Indians with view OF drlv-
ing the mout and ending the war at once.
This mobilization of Mexican troops has
been considered with a view of sweeping
down on the Indians while they are still
scattered through the Yaqui country in
small bands, taking them by surprise and
sweeping them off the face of the earth,
the orders having been given to take no
prisoners The scouting party in today S
movement, however, state uaat the Indians
have evidently been informed OF The mo5fli-
cation of the troops they are mobilizing
their forces also and are preparing to offer
a formidable resistance to the advancement
of the troops. At present, with 2,5o0 SOL
diers at Sahuppa, which is considered the
key to the Yaqui country, the Indians may
be able TO hold their own against the troops
with even halfway Notifications.
This reported mobilization of the Indians
was received with some surprise 10y the
Mexican troops. and may possibly force
them to change their plans Of action, but
from reliable sources il is learned that every
effort will be made to push the fight now,
with the aim of bringing it to a speedy
termination.

city was reached the musician discovered
himself shy just 65 cents. On Alice he
shouldered the crime. Fearing arrest, not
withstanding her plea of not guilty, she
went to the hack driver, whose name hap
pened to be Archie, to borrow the requis-
lite amount. Archie told her that if she
was innocent to give the fiddler sound

EXTENSION OF THE
E. & ". RAILROAD
Revival of Rumor That 1t VIII
Enter Birmingham.
WORK TO BEGIN SHORTLY
General Manager Clark of the Birming-
ham Belt Line to be the Engineer
in Charge-Interested Par
ties Will Not Talk

While none of the presumably interested
parties will proclaim 1t a fact, certain
movements indicate very pointedly that
work will in very short time begin on the
Birmingham extension of the East and
West railroad, the completion of which
will make practically another trunk line
into Birmingham.
During the past few months parties in
terested in the road have very quietly ac-
qulred considerable valuable properties
near Birmingham and some of this proper
ty is located within the corporate limits
of the city.
1t is a foregone conclusion and is ad-
mitted by those on the inside that the
Birmingham Belt railroad was bought in
by the Birmingham Belt Railroad COM
pany, not only for its present value, but
also for terminal facilities for the East and
West railroad. The Alabama Iron and De-
yelopment company, which recently ac-
quired considerable mineral properties in
and around Gate City, an allied interest
of the East and West crowd, is making
rapid improvements and the talk connected
with this points East and West-wardly.
1t has also been talked in the past few
days that George H. Clark, president gen.
eral manager of the Birmingham Belt rail-
road, will be the engineer in charge of this
extension and that he will begin certain
preliminary work in a short time. The
birmingham Belt railroad people, however
plead ignorance on this score.
There is much talk on this subject, and
everything points in the direction of a new
railroad for Birmingham.
VIII Not Run Excursion
Charles Jones, passenger agent of the
Kansas City, Memphis and birmingham,
stated to an Age-1Ierald reporter last night
that the excursion to be run In here on ac-
count of the Robinson circus was Off. This
is on account of the fact that the Ringing
show is at Tupelo and the Sells show in
Memphis on practically the same date
Southern Changes Schedule
Sunday at noon the Southern railway will
put into effect a new schedule which at
this point will affect freight trains only.
The only passenger train on Superintendent
Frazer's division affected is the Atlanta
and Tallapoosa accommoda ton, the figures
on which are slightly changed.

Next Saturday. at O'Brien's opera house,
the distinguished actor and playwright, Mr..
Charles COghlan. will present his very sue
cessful play, THE Royal Box which has
been accorded unmeasured success.
THE Royal Box" is strongly dramatic
and very novel in its presentation. 1t is an
episode in the life of distinguished Eng
lsh actor called in the drama James Clar-
ence. Its scenes range through diplomatic
balls, taverns. theatrical dressing rooms
and the stage of The Drury Lane theater.
While its characters embrace all classes
from the Prince of Wales TO inn-keepers
and constables- Its serious interest is the
real life of a man whose profession is the
mimicry of life for the enjoyment OF others,
and its end is 10 show the effect upon a
naturally noble nature of the sham favors
of a selfish coquette and the true affection
of innocent, loyal girl. Mr.. Coghlan' 5
part in the play is that of the heading actor
of The Drury Lane rAeater, 1910, who, at the
time the play begins, is, or fancies he is,
in love with the wife of The Swedish am
baSsador at the court Of George Ill. He
makes an appointment with her in his
dressing room at the theater. A stage
struck girl whom her guardian is trying
to force into deteSted marriage, comes
TO him for help and advice, and he gives
her ehivalrous and brotherly quantity
of one and a sound, wholesome portion of
/ the other. HIS jealousy is aroused by the
admiration of the Prince of Wales for his
fair but fraii Helen. and ne publicly insults
the prince at a performance, which out
break makes the lady tregnble fer the con-
sequences, and breaks off her friendship
that he may meet the storm of royal dis
pleasure alone The girl whom he mas be-
friended Loyalty stands by him in trouble
and the good nature OF the prince solves a.
very serious trouble.
Mr.. Cogf1lan has been awarded universal
praise for his splendid performance of
Clarence and his exceilent-work of adapta-
ton Of the elder Dumas antiquated play
of 'Kean," but the general tone of new
ness, which makes it in all its aspects a
modern play, meeting al the requirements
of the stage. To Mr.. Coghlan and the play
and the changing of times, the barrier be-
tween tine footlights and the public have
been swept aside The production in its

APPEAL CASES COME
BEFORE JUDGE GREENE
Reserves His Decision on Question of Va
grancy-Judgment for $1OO In city
Court-0ther Business

There was considerable interest evil
denced yesterday in the criminal court
when the call of the inferior criminal court
appeal cases was begun. The first case on
the docket was the one against Charles
Fuller, whose appearance in court indi-
Gated that he was anything but vagrant
in the common acceptation of the term,
although that was the charge against him.
The city was represented by r. ]. Lowe
and D. A Greene, while Messrs. F. S. Fer
guson, Morris Loveman, Hugh Morrow and
L. C. Bradley appeared for the defense.
Demurrers were filed, and these were ably
argued by both sides, the defense taking
the stand that the city has exceeded its
authority in defining correctly exactly
what makes a vagrant. This point was
made the issue, and Judge Greene with
held his decision, allowing both sides to
submit briefs.
Judge Greene fined Jim Bennett 500 for
violating the Sunday law, but reduced the
fine to s25.
Joe Tedesky, charged with violating the
Sunday law. was discharged.
One or two Sunday selling cases We're
called, but owing to the absence of Detec-
tive Holcomb, the principal witness, these
were continued.

In the first division of the city court the
case of Joe Streator VS.. the Southern rail-
