Fearful Thanksgiving Calam-
ity In Frisco.
THE ROOF FELL IN
Precipitating Football Spectators Onto a
Redhot Furnace-Fourteen
Are Dead.

San Francisco, Nov. 3O.-Fourteen
persons met horrible death and SO
were painfully injured by the col
lapse of the roof of glass factory
on which they were standing.
The victims were watching the foot
ball game between the Leland Stan
ford and University Of California
teams when the roof beneath them
gave way, precipitating them to the
floor of the factory. Some of the
fell upon the furnaces and one, Of un-
known identity was burned almost to
a crisp.
The crash of the falling roof was
heard great distance away and thou
sands Of people hurried to the scene.
Messages were sent to the city re-
ceiving hospital and the morgue and
all the available ambulances were
hurried to the spot. At the central
receiving hospital at l o'clock five of
the injured had been received. At the
time of the accident there was but
one attendant at the hospital and he
was unable to attend all the cases as
they came in. A summons was sent
out Immediately calling upon doctors
in the neighborhood to come to the
hospital. Owing to the confusion ex-
listing at that time, the name of but
one of the injured had been learned,
and that one was Al Essenann, who
was frightfully cut about the head and
face.
The crowd was gathered upon the
roof of a building directly over the
furnace of the glass works. When
the roof collapsed the occupants were
precipitated upon the heated top and
rolled off. Fully forty were injured,
nearly all of them seriously.
Seven of the dead are boys, rang
ing in age from ten to fifteen years.
They were found lying in a row and
most of them were badly mangled.
There were no fewer than 200
persons on the roof when it collapsed,
and of these SO went down. Those
who were fortunate enough to be on
solid section of the building scurried
down and helped remove the injured.
The heat of the furnace was SO in
tense, however, that to many no as
sistance could be rendered and they
roasted to death.
Two hundred yards away were 2O,-
900 persons watching the football
game, and when the news came there
was intense excitement among them.
The ushers went calling for doctors,
and many surgeons hurriedly left the
game.
The sufferers were taken to various
hospitals. The Southern Pacific hospi-
tai, about two blocks from the glass
works, was overcrowded and many of
the injured had to be sent to st. Luke's
the receiving hospital.

WHAT CONGRESS WILL DO.
Senator Lodges View Of Probable
Legislation.

81 think" said Senator Lodge to
Star reporter today, that the ap-
portionment bill and bill reducing
the war revenue will probably be dis
posed of, but mention these as
things reasonably certain"
will the reapportionment include
the reduction of representation in
the south that is being talked of, !"
was asked.
81 think not" the senator replied.
lit is at least doubtful whether that
will be a feature of the reapportion-
ment.'
How about legislation with rela-
ton to the Philippines?"
The Spencer bill, giving the presi-
dent civil power until congress shall
have the information upon which to
act, just what Jefferson was given
with reference to Louisiana, will
probably be adopted. Congress has
not the information upon which to
base permanent legislation, and until
such information is had temporary
provision for civil government must
be provided. do not see on what
basis there can be opposition to this.
If ever the policy of an administra-
tion was indorsed by the people the
course of this administration in the
Philippines has been indorsed.
After congress has the complete
report of the Philippine commission
which l regard as eminently capable
we shall know what is proper to be
done. and then there will be legisla.
tion of permanent character.
believe the possession of the Philip
pines is going to prove a great com
mercial advantage to this govern
ment. A large commerce will be de-
veloped in the islands themselves,
and. in my opinion, these islands will
play an important part in the devel
opment of trade with China"

Most, If Not All, of the Troops In
Cuba to Leave.

Cuba to Leave.
1t is said that unless the present
plans of the war department are
changed, most if not all of the troops
now in the Island of Cuba will be
withdrawn from there about the 1st
of May. and given stations either in
this county or in the Philippines. A
movement of this kind was one of the
subjects of consideration by the Sec
retary of war on his recent visit to
Cuba. General Wood, commanding
the division of Cuba, has recommend
ed that material reduction be made
in the number of troops on the island,
and it is said that there is no reason
to doubt that conditions will justify
the withdrawal of the entire American
army of occupation by the 1st of May
or soon after.

Helena, Nov. 3O.-J. W. Hathaway,
Chinese inspector for Montana and
Idaho, says the number of Chinese in
Montana is growing less. A few
years ago there were 25,GOO Chinese
in Montana, now there are not more
than half that number. He believes
the strict regulations imposed on the
Chinese coming to this country has
been the cause. Unless a Chinaman
is born in America he cannot become
a citizen or acquire property. The
same ratio of decrease applys to
Idaho.

lower house of the legislature. This
next session OF the legislature. There
will doubtless be no change in the
representation in the senate, each
county being still allowed one sena-
tor, and the census does not necessi.
tate a great change in the house.
There will probably be evinced a de.
sire to keep the membership of the
house down as much as possible, and
it seems probable that the basis of
the apportionment will be about one
representative to every 5000 of popu-
lation. At this ratio, none of the
counties will lose any, and several
counties will gain representatives.
Cascades representation will be in
creased from to 8, and Silver Bows
from II to l6. Choteau's represen-
tation will be doubled, as will Te-
tons. and it will probably be found
necessary, in justice to Valley to give
Choteau and Valley joint represen-
tative. There will be few other
changes, but none to the injury of
any county or any industry or Sec
tiOn of the state.
If the basis of representation
should be made to 5000, the several
counties would be entitled to repre-
sentatives as follws:
