Bloomington, Ills, Dec. "a new
phase has entered into the United

frequent references to his career in

STRIFE in SPIRIT WORLD
DISTRIBUTING ASSOCIATION AND
WHISKY TRUST AT ODDS.
Trouble Has Arisen Over the Two Re-
cent Advances i'm the Price of
Spirits-Efect of Corn Rise.

CINCINNATI, Dec. 1.-Great interest is
taken in the matter here this week of the
United States Spirits Association, as it is
expected that war will be declared against
the trust.
The United States Spirits Association is
the distributing agent of spirits and alco-
hol, and is under contract with the Stand
ard Distilling Company. one of the con-
Germs composing the Distilling Company
of America, the whisky Trust" to take
its entire output. The Spirits Association
is an Independent organization, but mutual
interests make it desirable that they work
in unison. They have been doing so for
several years. The Spirits Association meets
annually with representatives of the Stand
ard Distilling Company to agree upon a
price and contract for the output of the
latter company.
The first trouble with the United States
Spirits Association came seven months ago.
when the trust advanced spirits and alcohol
in the base L cent gallon, to $l.3l. The
second ruffle came several days ago. when
the trust added another cent, making the
price S1.32. 1t gave as its reason the ad-
vance in the price of corn.
This latest increase, the Spirits AsSoCia-
tion says, was unwarranted, and many
members say they cannot stand by the price
and will seek the articles outside of the
trust markets. The output of the Stand
ard Distilling Company amounts TO about
10. 200 gallons year. The recent ad-
vance represents $4,000. The distributors
claim that the rise In corn was not Suf-
ficient to Justify the advance.

HORRIBLE FIRE FATALITY In THE
VICINITY OF ALTOONA.
All but the Head of the Family

Omaha Has N Bad Blaze.

ALTOONA, Pa, Dec. Mrs. Mary c..
Burk and her four children. Adam. aged
sixteen years; Mary. thirteen years old;
Joanna, aged eleven, and Joseph Victor.
aged eight years, burned TO death at their
home at George Station, near here, early
this morning Carl w. Burk, the husband
was seriously burned about the back.
Mrs. Burk and all the children except
Adam retired at the usual hour last night.
Mr.. Burk, who was in Altoona, did not get
home until late. The lamp was burning in
the kitchen for him. Before he went up
stairs he turned ii low. n lunch was left
on the kitchen table for Adam, who is a
stage hand at the Altoona Opera House.
1t is not known what time Adam went
home.
Mrs. Burk was awakened by a dense
smoke in her room. She awoke her hus-
band, who found the kitchen ablaze Burk' S
clothing ignited, but he rolled in the
snow 10 extinguish the Iames. He then
summoned the assistance of neighbors but
when they arrived there was no hope of
saving the house or rescuing the inmates.
Burk was sent away TO a hospital craZed
with grief. The house was soon consumed
and the bodies. charred and blackened.
were recovered. One corpse could not be
distinguished from the other. The general
opinion is that Adam forget to extinguish
the light when he retired and that the lamp
was in some way upset, possibly by the
family dog
