FRACTlOUS TECH STUDENTS.
Senior Class Commit Mutinous
Act By Failing to Show Up
On Opening Day.

The senior class of the Georgia Tech
biological school at Atlanta, consisting
of fifteen young Georgians and one
Tennesseean: stand suspended for an
act of mutiny in which every member
of the class but one took hand.
The class conspiracy which has ended
with the suspension of the seniors for
the time being is one with the ordi-
nary pranks growing out of the mani
festation of "class spirit" in every COL
lege in the country. In refusing,
however, to return to college on the
day set for the spring opening by the
faculty the students of the senior class
took the bit in their teeth in start
ling manner, rs result of which it
was cup to" the faculty either to dem
onstrate their authority or to have
terms dictated to them by the mem
bers of the class.
The latest development in the inter-
esting situation which has arisen at
the "Tech'' is that in all probability it
will fare hard with at least seven
members of the class, who are, it is
believed by the faculty. responsible
for the mutiny. 1t is said that the
seven members of the senior class,
who are students in the textile depart.
ment, have taken issue before with
the faculty in matter of considerable
importance.

EIGHT DIE IN FLAMES
Hotel In Minneapolis Brrns and
Guests are Entrapped.
Those Who Perished Were Suf-
located BY Smoke-.Scene Was
Replete With Horrors.

Eight men lost their lives in fire
at Minneapolis Sunday morning. The
fire had it's origin in the rear of the
Standard Furniture store. The men
were overtaken by On immense volume
of smoke in the Harvard hotel, which
occupies the second, third aud fourth
floors of the building, and death in
every instance was due to sufocation.
When the men were found in various.
parts of the house man named
Erickson was dead and the seven 9TH
ers were unconscious. The fire was
discovered by Charles Hanson, and he
and the night clerk set about to
awaken the dodgers. In several in
stances it was necessary to break in
the doors. What took place in the
rooms and narrow, dark Railways
will never be known. Every man
rushed for his own life. Nine
teen of the twenty-seven dodgers were
successful, but the others were unable
to beat their way through the oil
smoke and fell ir their tracks where
they were found by the fremen.
Many of those who escaped came stag
gering out on the snowy sidewalk like
drunken men, barely making their
way through the smoke and heat and
partially clad. Several had the most
narrow escapes. The loss on the
building and contents will not exceed
$4,000. The dead are:
Nathaniel Perly, sixty years old.
G. J. Skidmore, forty-6ve years old.
J. S. Bently, ffty.five years old.
B. Scofe!d, forty-fve years old.
George Rudey, forty-fve years old.

WORLD.S CASH DOUBLED.

Director of the Mint Roberts Issues In.
teresting Report.
An increase of more than 100 per
cent in the money of the world within
less than generation is one of the
most interesting exhibits of the annual
report of the director of the mint.
The total stock reported in 1873 was
about 800, 900, 900, of which more
than half was in paper money not
fully covered by metallic reserves.
The situation at the beginning of
1900 showed total monetary stock of
about S11, 800, 900, 900, Of which only
little more than one-fourth was in un.
covared paper money. Director Rob-
erts finds that, while the total money
supply of the world has increased
about 81, 900, 900, 900, the increase in
gold money since 1873 has been about
So, 800, 900, 900; in silver about 81, $780,
100000, and in uncovered paper only
about $3.50, 10000
The quantity of silver money, which
was at it's maximum of about 81, ESQ.,
100000 at the beginning of 1896, has
since been somewhat reduced by the
sale Of silver by Germany and its re-
tirement in other countries.
