FIRE At A BREWERY.
The Anheuser-Busch Ice Storage
Plant at St. Louis Burned.
MUCH OTHER DAMAGE also DOVE.


st. Louis, March lJ.-Perhaps the
most disastrous fire in the history OF
the South side yesterday afternoon
burned the ice storage plant of the
Anheuser-l'nsch Brewing company;
the repair shop Of the American Car
and Foundry company, together with
number of box ears; the factory
OF Stule O. Co., pickle manufac.
turers; five roOmng houses and a
number of small sheds. The total
damage is estimated at 100000, par
italy insured. Two men, employees
of the American Car and Foundry
company, were injured, but not Sc
riously. The burned district embraced
two square blocks, bounded by Zepp,
Utah, First and Kosciusko streets.
The fire broke out at 1925 o'clock
in one of the Anheuser-Busch ice
houses, all of which are connected.
A spark from a passing switch en-
CINE is credited with having ignited
straw in the loft. While the fire was
in progress stiff southeast wind
blew across the river from the Illinois
side, tanning the flames and making
the work of the firemen an exceeding
ly difficult one. Piles of lumber adj
jacent to the storage house quickly
ignited, causing heat which was in
tense. The wind blew great clouds
Of smoke into the faces of the firemen.
Several valuable buildings, which es-
capped damage, were seriously threat.
ened. BY far the greater danger at
thched to buildings more remote from
the scene OF destruction, but in the
direct line of the wind. For miles the
river levee is fronted with lumber
yards. factories and warehouses, while
on the railroad tracks, with their
numerous switches, were scores Of
box cars many of them loaded with
lumber and other material which
would make rich food for the flames.
The high wind lifted burning embers
and carried them for blocks to the
northwest, terrorlzing residents, and
several times the department was
compelled to divide its force in an
swer to reports of igniting fires else
where. No buildings in the immedi-
ate path of The flames suffered damage,
however, although cautious residents
and business men as far away as six
blocks from the scene removed goods
and furnishings from dwellings and
stores in n fear that the fire would
develop into widespread conAagra-
tiOn.

Want Vice Suppressed in New York.

New York, March 1s.-In response
to a summons from committee of
over 100 women, representing some
30 societies, mass meeting was held
yesterday afternoon in Carnegie hall,
which was called to order by Mrs. Ella
A. Boole. A set of resolutions was
adopted which protests against the
"illegal licensing of vice by official
blackmal; against the imposition of
fines for the punishment of vicious
conduct" and calling upon the au-
thorties to suppress vice in the city
for the sake of the young people who
are growing up surrounded by it.

MILITARY SECRETS.


Washington, March l9.-lt was said
at the war department yesterday that
no Investigation had been Instituted
as 10 the extent to which military
secrets became known to foreign mill
tary attaches stationed in Washing
ton. This statement was called out
by a report that the state department
had asked the war department. to
institute such an investigation and
that the inquiry actually had begun.
In authortatiyely disposing of the re-
port il was pointed out that the war
department sought to give every
proper facility to the foreign military
attaches, admitting them TO our arse
mails, etc, and that the limitations
placed upon them were comparatively
few, including those connected with
the tests at the Sandy Hook proving
ground. In this last case ii appears
that while the government restricts
all information on the tests, no re-
strc'lon can be legally placed upon
parties who have guns or explosives
under test and who usually have the
right to be present during the tests

At 100000, with very little insurance.
The fire started in . barber shop and
spread rapidly in all directions The
inhabitants of the place were without
means of fighting the flames and
were compelled to stand by hclplessiy
and witness the destruction of their
property.

TIE CANALS RIVAL.
The Mexican Government Working Steadily
on Tehuantepec Railway Which Crosses
the CountTv's Narrowest Part.

London, March 1S.-While the
United States is busy discussing and
negotiating over the proposed Near
aqua canal the Mexican government
is working steadily OF route across
the isthmus which not only promises
to loom up as the Nicaragua canals
most dangerous rival after the canal
begins business, but which will be in
active operation five or six years be-
fore the Nicaraguan route can posi-
bly, be opened. Stated briefly, the new
work consists in reconstructing a
railway-the Tehuantepec line-which
already crosses Mexico at its narrow
est point, to such an extent that
freight can be rushed across it in a
shorter time and at a lower rate than
would be possible by the Nicaragua
canal, the saving Of time of vessels
through the use of this more north
erly route being expected to even up
the disadvantage of handling ships
cargo twice.
