AFFLICTED INDIA.
A Flood Now Adds to Its Cup
of Woe.

It seemed that the cup of India's woe
was full already, but it has recently
been made to overflow by the floods
which have carried destruction over a
large territory. In the Calcutta region
recently there was rainfall of no less
than 30 inches in three days, and the
greater part of the city was covered
with three feet of water The flooded
area with its population of many mil
lions has suffered terrible losses OF life,
property and crops. While this part
of India was being devastated by water
other regions were suffering as great
disaster from dr0uth.
Famine, flood, drouth, cholera and
the bubonic plague have all befallen
poor India at once and made a sicken-
ing story for her.
For large part of midas 100000
600 people life is full of misery and
death offers about the only relief.

Washington, March 13.-During al
most the entire session of the senate

pied the floor in a discussion of the

Roast Flesh.

New York. March H.-Fourteen per-
sons lost their lives, two persons were
seriously injured and many others
slightly burned in Il fire in Newark. n.
J., yesterday morning. The firemen,
after the flames had been subdued,
took thirteen bodies from the ruins,
and while they. We're thus engaged an
other victim of the fire died in the city
hospital. One family was wiped out
completely, and of another only the
father lives. and he is in the city hos
pital. where it is believed he will die.
The building in which the fire broke
out was Il veritable fire trap. 1t was
old, of frame construction, and eX-
tended two stories above the ground
floor. Until three or four years ago the
structure had been used as a church,
but it was converted into a tenement.
AS nearly as u be learned the .struc-
ture was occupied by en- families, all
Italians. Two Of the occupants, Vito
Credanza and one other family, kept
boarders, and although the total popu-
lation of the rookery could not be def
nitely ascertained
During the Excitement
attending the fire, there seemed to be
forty or fifty persons of both exc and
all ages in the building when the fire
started. ..
The police are confident that the fire
was of incendiary origin and they have
arrested Vito CredanZa on suspicion.
There was a d%isorderly card game in
one of the rooms which lasted we'll
nto the morning. Credanza was Il par
ticipant and is said to have made vio-
lent threats against his fellow players.
A few minutes before 5 o'clock every
one III the building was awakened by
the flames.
The hallway and the stairs were
burning. entirely cutting off the only
egress from the upper floor on which
| six families lived. 1t also cut off the
escape by the door for those who lived
in the real part of the first floor. Those
who could made for the windows.
From these they leaped or dropped.
The whole neighborhood was awake in
an instant and from the burning build
ing came agonizing screams and calls
for help. From the basement and
ground floor the inmates of the build
ing poured naked, or nearly so. From
the upper story
Men and Women Leaped
10. II Dy. tIIe tluue tAc Ai1c-
men reached the scene the building
was wrapped in flames and those who
had not escaped were dead or doomed.
They must have died within a few
minutes, for the fire rushed through
every room. in the frail building within
ten minutes. There was fearful excite
ment about the burning building. Men,
women and children who escaped from
the burning building rushed about al
most naked, looking for their relatives.
The fire lasted only a few minutes.
The search for the dead began within
twenty minutes after the alarm sound
ed. SO quickly was the fire conquered.
The stencil of roasted flesh coming
from the ruins was sickening. 1t was
noon before the search for the bodies
was ended, and by that time. every bit
of the debris had been gone over most
carefully.
There were still many persons miss
ing. but they were accounted for In
various parts Of the city during the
!! course of the day.

Smallpox Scare Baseless and the
Quarantine Has Been Raised.
Mortified, Mimi, March 9-The bust
ness men of Northtield held a mass
meeting and passed a strong resolution
requesting the board of health to raise
the quarantine at once. The board de-
cided to comply with the request. 1t
has been proven that the cases which
were supposed to have been smallpox
were not that disease at all, and there
is no smallpox in town. The quaran-
tine has been rigidly enforced during
the danger period, and much trade that
is naturally tributary to Northfield has
been diverted to other towns.
