CHIEF SWEETNESS PERIL.
Veteran Chicago Fire Fighter Has a
Close Call.


CHICAGO, Feb 2.-Fire Chief Sweenie
had a narrow escape from death early
today in the burning factory of the
Rauch Furniture Manufacturing COM
pany. The veteran head of the depart
ment was overcome by smoke and fell
unconscious In the rear of the office on
the first floor. Members of Engine Com
pany No. 8 bore Chief Sweenie from the
building just in time to save his life.
The chief had gone into the building
alone, and 1t was several minutes before
his men knew of his peril. The structure,
which is four stories high and covers
large area, was burning fercely from
the second floor, where the fire originated,
to the roof, but the blaze had not pene-
trated downward to the first floor, when
the chief arrived in response to the
alarm which was turned In soon after
the fire was discovered.
Four companies were directing streams
of water from leads of hose upon the
blaze While waiting for the summoned
reinforcements to arrive Chief Sweenie
seized an AK and broke In the front door
of the factory. He went in almost I'M
noticed. After some little time elapsed
and his absence was noted number of
firemen went in search of him. The
chiefs face had deathly pallor, his eyes
were closed, his breath was coming faint

side when he was carried into the street.
There was excitement and CONSERVATION
among the firemen.
Never before had the veteran been
overcome, and never had there been
necessity for rescue of him by his own
men. The group that gathered about
him felt sure that. some serious injury
had been sustained by Chief Sweenie,
but an examination disclosed that smoke

ness.
After a few minutes the unconscious
chief was partially revived. He was then
removed to nearby engine house. A
physician who was called said the mar
shal's condition was not serious. This
is the first time in over half a century
Of fire fgting that Sweenie has been COM
PEELED to retreat before his foe Lately
Chief Sweenie has been subject to faint
ing spells, and it is supposed that he
was seized with one Of these when the
cloud of smoke settled down on him.

Report of Mutiny Among Soudanese
Forces Is Verified.
PARIS. Feb. "A dispatch to the Ha-
vas News agency from Cairo confirme the
report that rebellion had occurred
among the Soudanese troops in Khar-
toum. 1t says:
There is much anxiety here. There
have been a number Of grave incidents,
notably the growing discomfort in the
Egyptian army, which has attained to a
mutiny in two Soudanese battalions. The
government has sent Col. Wingate to
barley with them. The army complains
of bad treatment, and the secret dispatch
of Egyptian troops to South Africa. 1t
appears certain that ten Maxims and a
large assignment of saddles have gone
TO Durham, and a number of English off,
GERS and civil functionaries have obtained
an unlimited furlough to go to South At
RIGA, which is believed to be a breach
of Egypts neutrality. The government
Is alarmed at the attitude of the black
troops, and has asked the khedive to In
tervene. The latter has sent a letter
urging obedience, but the anxiety never
theless continues. Egypt Is almost de-
nuded of European troops"
A cable to the Associated Press, dated
Jan. 80, said there are only $50 white SOL
diers at Khartoum under a major. The
Soudan force, it was added, consisted Of
two battalions, with a total of 1850 men.
