HAGERSTOWN, Ind, April 26.-Daniel
w. Dearborn. one of the oldest mail clerks
in the postal service. fell from the door of
his car while the train was running sixty
miles an hour at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
The train had just passed the station and
Dearborn had thrown the mail pouch from
the door when his feet appeared to slip
and he fell to the ground. He was dead be-
fore assistance could reach him.. He was
one of the most careful men on the road.
and his death clearly was the result of &C
cident. He was preparing TO remove to
Richmond, and his household goods were
packed with that end In view. He was
running extra for A. E. Grim, of New Cas-
tie.
He was about forty-1ve years old and
had a wife and one child, a daughter, four
teen years old. He had been prominently
mentioned for division superintendent, but
Hollowell secured the place.

burned out. The business portion is all
gone, n over half of the residence. The
Roman Catholic Cathedral has been saved.
together with Eddy's sulphite works. Gill
mour & Hughson mills, are also standing.
The only means of communication be-
tween Ottawa and Hull is by boats. From
2 o'clock the only water to be had in Hull
was from the river. Chief Benoit, of the
Hull fire brigade, was injured and taken to
the General Hospital in Ottawa.
The fire originated through a fire in a
dirty chimney. and the high wind caused
the flames 20 spread rapidly. Coming to
the Ottawa side of the river, that portion
OF the city before Rochesterville was an
nexed was almost entirely burned down.
Here and there a building remains. The
village OF Hintonburg. still farther east,
in close proximity to the city, has not been
destroyed as rapidly. The greater part
remains. Mechanicsville. too. which was
reported to have been entirely swept away,
still remains.
The fire at midnight was largely confined
TO that part of Rochesterville lying near
the st. Louis dam in the southeast part of
the city. Unless a heavy wind rises the
rest OF the city is safe. The bucket bril-
gade of the military and Montreal firemen
with their engine did yeoman service at
this point. In addition to the losses men,
toned there Is that Of the Export Lumber
Company. limited, whose establishment
was at the Chaudiere. Their loss will be
very heavy, but is covered by insurance
in American and English companies. A
prominent lumber man said the price of
lumber would certainly be raised on ac-
count OF the fire.
The casualties so far reported are Miss
Cook. an old woman who lived on Yelling
ton street. near the French church, and
who was burned to a crisp in her house,;
al unknown man was found dead on the
Canadian Pacific Railroad track: James
Mavan is reported to be fatally injured,
and some pieces Of timber fell on James
Merryfield, who was taken to the hospital.
The government is supplying blankets and
doing all in it's power for the comfort of
the sufferers.
The Ottawa Insurance Company. a new
institution, will be a heavy loser in the fire.
All the Canadian companies and some of
the English and American companies are
interested.
A prominent lumber man, who is not in
terested himself. placed the loss on lumber
at S.0o0.0o0- This is thought TO be low,
and the Export Lumber Company alone has
lost nearly si.O00.Oo0. The same lumber

DAY BOYCOTT
ORGANIZED LABOR WILL TAKE
PART IN THE CELEBRATION.
Girls Who Are Rehearsing to Take
Part i'm the Chorus Annoyed
by Union PicIxets.

CHICAGO, April 26.-The long-talked-of
boycott of the Dewey celebration by or
ganized labor took form to-day when the
executive committee of the district. eighty
of the international Association of Ma
chinists. issued an edict declaring the pro-
moters of the celebration antagonistic to
union labor and ordering members of the
union to take no part in it.
A complaint was made to-day that the
girls who are to sing in the chorus which
is to be a feature of Dewey day nave been
threatened with violence If they persist in
attending rehearsals. The threats are said
TO have been made by union pickets and
their sympathizers, who, according to Prof.
Gabriel Katzenberger. have been standing
guard at the entrance TO Steinway Hall,
where the rehearsals took place, frighten-
ing some of the girls away and causing
general CONSERVATION. The unions are ar
rayed against the whole celebration com
mittee because the Dewey grand stand is
being built by nonunion men. Prof. Kat
zenberger is in charge of the chorus and
has applied to the police for protection.
The Evening Post says it is reported this
afternoon that the material men have
forced a split in the Contractors Associa-
ton, between which organization and the
Building Trades Union a war has existed
for two months, costing millions of dollars
in wages and paralyzing building opera
tions. The report comes from a member
of the committee appointed by the City
Council. The contractors for brick work,
it is said, have been forced by the brick
manufacturers to agree to arbitration,
thus retiring from the position assumed by
the Contractors Association that 1.-The
Building Trades Council must co. Some
OF the contractors under pressure to-day
agreed to treat with the municipal COM
mittee and this, it is expected. means the
beginning of the end of one of the worst
building trades strikes Chicago has ever
experienced.

As soon as the members Of the govern
ment saw that the fire was TO be a disas-
trous one the acting minister OF public
works telegraphed to Montreal. Peterboro
and Brookville for fire appliances and all
assistance that could be sent. But, al
though they arrived speedily, they were of
no avail. Nothing could stop the ravages
OF the fire. which Ieaped over whole blocks
and broke out in all directions. The Cana
dian Pacific Railway station. which is on
Chaudiere flats, was among one Of the first
buildings TO go, as it was d wooden struc-
ture.
The large cliff which extends from the
Ottawa river back by Christ Church and
st. john the Baptist Church on to Roches-
tervilie was the only thing which stopped
the whole city of Ottawa becoming a prey
to the fire. Shortly after noon the wind,
which was blowing previously in a north
westerly direction. changed to a SOUTH
easterly direction and in this way what re-
manned OF Ottawa was saved.
1t Is almost idle to talk of losses while
the fire yet burns and with a change of
wind would certainly sweep the city. but
q moderate calculation would be some
where between $15,0O0,0O0 and $2O,O00,O0O The
government had the militia called out and
adjourned the House of Commons until
Tuesday on account of the fire.

JEFFERsONvILLE CAMPAIGN.


Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind, April 26.-The
campaign in this city. which closes Monday
next, has been probably the most heated
ever held in Jeffersonville, the question of
the municipal ownership of the new electric
light plant being the issue. Politics is en-
tirely lost sight of among the Democrats,
and brother is fighting brother. The DEM
ocratic City Council is being severely criti-
cised for it's action in appointing Council-
man William Cain a solicitor of the new
electric plant at a salary Of $50 per month,
when he Is already drawing a salary as
councilman from the city. This is clearly
In violation of the law, but the Democrats
are cheerfully unfolding it.
Matthias Kilgus, Democratic precinct
committeeman, has resigned because he
does not favor the plan outlined by the
Democrats, and is fighting the nominee for
Council. On the other hand, the Repub-
licans are united m harmonious, with the
exception of Councilman Cain, above re-
ferred TO, who is %espousing the Democratic
side.

CHICAGO, April 26-The attacks of
strikers in the building trades war on nom

STEPHEN GAUL, carpenter, slugged

Tansey and Schellhorn were Engaged in

They had dumped the sand in front of the
building, when, without warning, a mob of
fifty men. mostly pickets who had been in
the neighborhood ever since the strike
started, began hurting bricks, stones and
paving blocks at them. They were hit fire.

strikers closed in on them and pounded
and kicked them. The arrival of the police
dispersed the mob and the injured men
were taken to their homes.

been threatened by strikers, but so quietly
did the three men jump upon him that he
fell an easy victim. Oscar Mold, a union

CIRCULATING PETITIONS.


Special to the indianapolis Journal.
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, April 26.-Petitions
to the Council asking that the Southern
Indiana be given what 1t asks in the way
of a franchise are being circulated, and
many persons are signing them. So intense
is the feeling in the matter that most per-
sons arrive at an opinion as to what is the
best thing to do solely from the standpoint
of taking sides in the quarrel between the
Southern Indiana and the Granville & Terre
Haute. AS the latter company is unpopular
because Ii is resisting the effort to open
Ohio street, naturally opinion is formed i'm
favor of the Southern Indiana without a
thought as to the actual merits and pro-
visions of the proposed franchise.
Not even the fact that the Southern In
diana's attitude is all that stands in the
way Of the city receiving free a Sc, 900 via
duct, a $4,000 site for a library and $4,000
in cash for the library building has weight
with those who are most pronounced in
favor of the ordinance.
