THE FIREMEN SLEPT.
Dense Smoke In No. Engine House
Fails to Arouse the Men.

At the headquarters of the Indianapolis
fire department there is book in which
a record of all the fires is kept and each
fire occurs to report to headquarters.
There was one fire early yesterday morning
which was not reported. however. for the
probable reason that members of engine
company No. 6 did not care to have other
members of the department know what had
happened to them. 1T was. however. only
a matter of consideration for their feelings
that Police Sergeant Hagermarfdid not pull
Box Al and call other companies to ex-
tinguish fire in the No. engine house
The sergeant had left his macintosh in
yesterday morning he went there to get it.
When he opened the door he found the
building filled with smoke and the two men
On the night watch sleeping soundly on
their cots on the ground floor. The SER
geant said he was obliged to stoop over
and get his head near the floor in order to
breath in the dense smoke. In the rear he
saw small blaze and after arousing the
men and those on the upper floors 1t was
found the fire had started from an over
heated gas stove, which was kept burning
for the purpose of keeping the engines
heated and ready for use. The wood around
the base of the stove had become so hot
that it began to smolder and had just
sprung into a blaze as Hagerman entered
He said he was tempted to pull the box,
and probably would have done so had it
not been so late. A pail of water extin-
guished the blaze. The reason the men
sleeping on the lower floor were not awak-
ened was due, no doubt TO the fact that
the smoke hung in the upper part of the
room and thus left the space near the floor
comparatively free from smoke.

Situation Unchanged.

The strike situation remains un-
changed today from yesterday.
The operators who came here yes
terday to be installed in the vacant
places for some unknown reason
did not remain and today the COM
pany's office here is still without
ar operator save Agent Dunham.
The operators who were installed
at Marietta and Thackervifle yes
terday have quit their jobs, and
the only new man we could learn
of today who is working between
Gainesville and Purcell is the one
located at Pauls Valley.
The striking operators all along
the line are hopeful and still be-
lieve that they have the best OF
the situation, though the company
claims to have all the men it needs
for the vacant places.
The rumors of sympathetic
strike by the egineers. fremen,
trainmen and conductors still come
and it is thought likely that such
a course may yet be adopted to
hasten the end of the trouble.

ENTHUSIASTIC OVER RESULT.
Judge Bradford Thinks The Conven.
tion DID Good Work.

Judge bfao10ro AhankS Inc OouVens
tion did Good Work.
Judge Bradford was in his Of
fee again this morning, having
returned last night from South
McAlester.
He is very enthusiastic over the
work of the convention, though
he indu1ges no Utopian dreams of
immediate results to flow from the
meeting. He says it will take
time to accomplish the needed re-
forms and he doesn't exrect any
legislation along the lines laid
down by the convention before the
next session of congress.
He says that the convention
was entirely harmonious and that
the work was done without fric-
tion or delay. The three propo-
sitions submitted to congress by
the convention were single state
hood, single territorial orgauiza-
ton and a territorial supreme
court.
On these propositions Judge
Bradford stated that in his opinion
congress would require territorial
organization in the Indian Terri
tory before admitting it to state
hood and for this reason the con-
vention urged single territorial or.
ganization as an alternative in or.
der that the two territories might
be made one state and enter upor
their era of state government Oh
an equal footing.
In regard to the supreme cour,
proposition he stated that this i!
urged in order to secure an lnde
pendent appellate tribunal as dis
tinguished from the present sys
tenn in both territories, unde
which the trial judges sit as al
appellate court. This system i
obnoxious to public sentimen
which demands absofute independ
ence for the courts of review, an,
is not convinced that the tria
judges can impartially review tn
decisions of each other.
! A plan of campaign was out
} lined by the convention and com
mittees appointed to carry forwar
] the work of propagating the singl
! statehood idea, and Judge Bra(
ford expressed the belief that G
