War Department Arranging Detaiis
o Enlistment of Volunteers.
Washington, July 5.-The wal de-
partment has nearly perfected the de-
tails of u project for the enlistment of
volunteers under the terms of the bill
of the last congress. There will be no
call by the president, but volunteers
will be obtained in the regular manner
through recruiting offices in the large
cities of the country. Instructions to
recruiting officers have already been
sentSout for guidance, rs well Us blanks
for enlistment. Everything is ready
to begin enlistment at a word from
Washington. The adjutant genera!
says it is intended to raise nine rcgi-
,ments in all, making II total force OF
about $4,000 men, with regulars, which
will enable the government largely to
exceed the number of troops Otis has
indicated he needs. ~
The regular army has been re.
cruited up to within 200 of the maxi
mum strength. At the opening of the
fall campaign Otis will have the fol-
lowing: Seventeen regiments of reg.
ular infantry, 25,s4D men; three new
volunteer regiments of regular infan
try, Aba: fourteen batteries of artil'
lcry, l,T19: Fourth cavalry, 1880; sig
nal corps, 1850; total, s33,273.

Q MAKE PEACE.

Rival Chiefs Meet on Board the
U. s. s. Badger.
Apia, Samoa, June 1s, via Auckland
N. n, July 5.-The Mataafa chiefs met
the Malietoan chiefs yesterday on
board the United States transport
Badger, and in the presence of the in
ternntional commissioners shook
hands and made peace.
A meeting has been arranged for
Malietoa Tanu and Mataafa with the
commissioners.
Peace is thus finally assured be-
tween the chicftains and their follow
ers, and both factions have returned
to their villages on friendly terms,
awaiting action by the powers.
In the meantime the government is
vested in the three consuls, two OF
whom can act in oil cases where
unanimity is not required by the
treaty.
This arrangement is acceptable to
all parties.

THREE BELIEVED TO BE DEAD.
Eight More Injured in n Fire in

Eight More Injured in n Fire in
Chicago.
Chicago, July 5.-Three people are
believed to be dead beneath the tot

Stock company's plant, which burned
yesterday. The dead:
BARTHOLOMEW SPARKEWEITZ,
SO years old.
MRS. JOSIE DOYLE, 81 years old,
STEFFINA BAGYEYOS.
Courageous work by several re-
suited in the rescue of a large proper
ton of the 100 ome and twenty men
who were employed in the building,
but eight of the impetuous and
frenzied ones were badly hurt escap-
ing from the blazing structure. The

Anna Pretresue.
Jenes Sznewski.
Alberta Bienes.
Agnes Labula.
Frances Drapa.
Maggie Zgeda.
Frances Scubada.
Frances Novak.
All of the injured women, who were
badly burned and bruised, We're taken
to st. Luke's hospital, about 200 feet
from the scene of the fire.
The fire is thought to have started
from spontaneous combustion among
some old rags in the basement. The
building stood at 1452-145s Indiana
avenue, and was n four-story brick
structure. The flames spread quickly
to the upper floors by way of the Gle
vator shaft and stairway. The highly
inhammable nature of the stock
caused the building to fill with dense
smoke, rendering escape difficult
for employees on the three higher stor-
les. The occupants of the building be-
came panic stricken and rushed to the
windows. Those who went to the
front, where there was a fire escape,
were able to make their way to the
ground by a ladder from the second
story. On the south side of the struc-
ture, however, many Of the frenzied
women leaped out of the third story
windows to the roof of a shed. 1t was
at this point that most of the injured
suffered.
On the north side of the building
several women escaped down q ladder
raised by Mrs. George Caldwell and
Mrs. Rend, residents of the neighbor-
hood.
President Frederick G. Tyler, of the
Western Paper Stock company, said
the loss of the concern would reach
between $4,000 and 100000, and in
surance S33, 900.

Lincoln, Neb., July 5.-Auditor Cor

today, in which he agreed to submit
their controversy over the insurance
bureau to the courts, but STIMULATING
that meanwhile he should remain in

To this the governor replied: "Your

Ing the disposition of the insurance de-

cannot be considered by me. The peo-
pie elected me to enforce the laws
which their representatives have en-
acted. / have taken my oath to do so

Unless the auditor obeys the law

will he.

LIQUID AIR AT LOW COST.

Plant Established In New York
aud in Practical Operation.
New York, July4.--For the first time
in this country a plant has been estab-
lished and practically operated for the
production of liquid mir. This plant has
been devised and constructed under
the direction of Oscar Z. Ostergren and
Moriz Burger and is located at 5al.
Nest Thirty-third street. Ii is capa.
bic, with 100-horse power, developed
by steam, of manufacturing about i 500
gallons of ~liquefied air in twenty-fou,
hours, or about a gallon a minute.
Its practical success is demonstrated
by the two facts that it can produce
liquetied air, comparing equal expendi
ture Of power, three times as rapidly
rs the best apparatus devised by Pro.
fessor Linde, of Munich, and at a cost
of about one-third. Mr.. Ostcrgren and.
Mr.. Burger have been working at their
process for about three years and have
now pcrfectedsit, in so far as the device
itself is concerned. although they cS
pcct to improve the machinery so as tG.
reduce further the cost of manufactnr
ing the %liqnetied air from G to s cents
a gallon, as at present, to about 2 cents

Aas H0cn Raining Over = Week ils
Part NJ tbs Htate.
Austin, Tex, July 5r-For seven days
Texas, throughout It's central aud
western portions, has been visited by
daily rainfalls. The rain continued
yesterday, and advices from as far
south as Nueces county state that ev-
erything is being flooded afresh by the
continued rainfall. That portion, how
ever, will not suffer nearly as much
loss as the B-nzos bottoms, as it is not
80 generally cultivated.
Reports from all along the Rrazos
bottom show that the waters are still
high, very high, and the fact that every
section continues to be visited by rain
falls makes the situation look extreme
Ily gloomy.
Estimates Of the total damage to the
country, railroad and personal prop
erty, as well as to crops, continue to
come in, and IL is figured out that it
will amount to $5,0O0,000. The rail-
roads of the state are making strenu-
GUS efforts to repai: their washed out
tracks, but are making little Roadway,
due to the fact that the waters cons
tinues on such q rampage that work
is seriously interfered with.
1t is estimated that the death list by
the flood will reach thirty. Those who
persisted are negroes, and the total
number Of fatalities will probably
never be known.
Houston, Tex, July a.-More COM
plete reports from different points in
the food district have been received
and are substantially the seme--that
an immense amount Of damage has
been done and at this time an accurate
estimate is impossible. Reports from
Bryan say that the wreck in that vi
cinity is unparalleled. More people
have been added to the death list. and
the number is now placed at forty-fve.
Both the Brazos and the Colorado
rivers are ~receding slowly, and back
water is running off very fast. Rail-
road traffic will be resumed in two
days.

Clinton, Ia, July 4.-Friday night
g bold holdup occurred at DE Witt.
Four men drove up to the Northwest
ern depot, tied their team, entered the

Long and a conductor with revolyers
and ordered them to hold up their

while the three others looted the safe,

to shoot the agent and conductor il

the weather has cleared throughout

ing or is at a standstill everywhere.

that thirty lives have been lost. 1t
will be several days before details can

cludes railroad losses, which much ex-
coed anything ever before known in

Edinburg, Ind, July 4.-What
trusts will do a be seen by compar-
ing the once prosperous Edinburg
with the now stricken town. In 1891
the National Starch Manufacturing
company was formed and began to
gobble up plants in Indiana, Ohio and
other states. The factory in Edin-
burg was taken in at s175, 900, when
it was really worth but $l25,OoO.5 1t
was promptly closed down, throwing
seventy-tive men out of employment
and depriving the merchants of a pay
roll of 5000 a week.
Families moved away, the price of
starch went up 20 per cent, while
corn decreased IS per cent, and real
estate depreciated. Farmers took
their corn elsewhere and likewise
spent their money i'll other towns
where a better market price could
be had. The factory buildings, which
were comparatively new, are rotting
down.

fected by this II trust, although
they have not been so badly hurt as
