JEFFERSON HOTEL BURNED.
Famous Hostelry ut Richmond, Va.
Totally DESTROYED,

NJ
The Jefferson hotel in Richmond. Va.
which was erected and furnished by the
late Lewis Ginter at a cost of 81 1000, 900.
was destroyed by fire Saturday, March 80.
The magnificent structure covered half Il
block in the ultra fashionable part of the
city, and was built of buff brick, with
granite foundation.
The flames were discovered i'm the uppe
part of the Main street side at midnight.
and in Il short time that part of the build
ing was a roaring furnace. AS far as can
be learned nc lives have been lost, though
there was great difficulty in getting out
some OF the guests. They were in the
hotel many works of art, including Val
entlne's marble statue of Jefferson, which
stood in the Franklin Street court.
The fire despite every effort continued to
spread, and at l o'clock in the morning all
nope OF saving any part of the magnificent
structure had been given up. The guests,
who were first driven out of the Main
Street portion of the hotel, took refuge in
the lobby on the Franklin Street side.
There was much excitement, especially
among the women, many of whom had re-
tired for the night. Many people lost all
their effects. For a little time it was hoped
mat the Franklin Street portion of the ho-
tel would be saved, but Il sudden shift of
the wind swept the fire directly INTO this
thls part. Several persons We're hurt by
falling down stairs. and one man had his
hip broken. No one persisted in the flames.
The fire started in the linen room, from
a defective Hue.
The insurance is about S650,O0O. All the
surrounding houses are filled with prop
erty taken from the hotel. There WAS
some lootins, and several arrests We're
made.
At2o'clock Saturday morning it was
almost certain that not Il vcstige OF the
hotel Will he left. Intellectual efforts were
made TO save the statue of Jefferson.

The coroner's jury, which has been in
v%cstigatins the boiler explosion at the
Doremus laundry, in Chicago March III, in
which eight lives were lost, returned a
verdict holding Abram f. Dorcmus to
await the action of the grand jury.
MIR. DoremuS was arrested on Il mittimus
and taken to the criminal court building
to give bail. The jury also recommended
that the grand jury investigate how it hap-
peiiel that City Boiler Inspector Schlacks
and his predecessor failed to have the
boiler registered on their books so that it
would be regularly tested.
Another provision Of the jury's verdict
recommends that The city council pass an
ordinance providing for the appointment
OF Il special commission to complete Il list
OF the boilers in use in Chicago. so that
they may be Systematically examined.

Gen. Funston ut once proposed to head
an expedition to isabella province in an
effort to capture .A~guinaldo. After much
discussion Coy. Gen. Macarthur consent

unique. After being landed Oh the east

oners in the hands of the natives, who
were to represent themselves to Agui-
naldo as loyal Filipinos. When brought
before ASulnaldo the latter was to be
seized by Funston's native troops and
made Il prisoner.
The adventure was a desperate one, as
It's success or failure depended OF the
faithfulness of Funston's native soldiers.
They were Macahebes. who have been
loyal to the United States almost from
the day the American troops landed.
They We're worthy of the trust imposed
on them. us proven by the success of the
enterprise.
Funston's plans went through as we'll
as they had been planned. Aguinaldo
fell into the trap. WAS made Il prisoner,
and was brought to Manila in the gun
boat VickSburg. which remained cruising
off the east coast Of LuZon for that pur-
pose. His capture may mean the end
of the war.

REMARKABLE DELlvERANcE.
Emperor Makes Another Samsa.
tioual Speech.

Emperor Makes Another 5e..a.
tiomai Speech.
Emperor William, in the course of a
speech at Berlin last Thursday to the
Alexander regiment said his hearers
must be ready day and night to act as Il
bodysuard to their king, AMI give t.lcir
blood. il necessary, for the emperor and
his house. Calling to mind the events of
1913, his majesty said if such days shnpld
come again the regiment would certainly
repress all characterization or misconduct
against the king.
Amusement is everywhere expressed at
the emperor's strong hints of a possible
revolutionary rising and OF street fights
with the troops. Well Informed circles
see in his majesty's deliverance further
proof that the attack upon him by Wei
land at Bremen has very seriously affected
his views and attitude toward the German
people. d.
The versions of the speech differ widely.
y number of the papers Thursday did
not print a word of it, and these include the
entire semi-oflicial press.
The LoSal Anzeiger's version, which is
INV io"Scs', makes tue emperor say some
very extreme things. The account pub
lished by the Tageblatt contains also some
severe passages. The Boerson Courier
prints another version, still more strongly
emphasizing the cmperor's wish that the
new barracks should serve as a fortress
for the protection of the castle. Other pa
pers, like Kreuze Zeitung. publish a
weaker version, I,ut the fact is that M n
single newspaper man was present when
the address was delivered, as none were
admitted TO the court yard. All the YER
sions were based upon, subsequent ac-
counts furnished by spectators other than
newspaper men or by the friends of such,
but they tally substantially.

Band of Thieves Raids Churches i'll
Heart OF New Orleans.
A band of thieves in New Orleans is sys-
tematically robbing the Roman Catholic
churches. Within the last month they
have broken into and robbed ten places
of worship. The priests are incensed
over what they term a movement di-
rected against their churches. The
thieves have taken gold and silver ware,
fine cloths and many relies. Most of the
churches robbed are situated in prominent
sections of the city, and in some of them
the priests are supposed to be on duty day
and night. The old st. Louis cathedral,
which adjoins the state court building on
one side and the Third precinct police sta
tion on the other, has been robbed several
times. and once a jeweled crown, worth
many thousands of dollars, was taken
from the head of the statue of the Virgin
Mary. SO far no churches other than the
Roman Catholic have been robbed.

DEADLOCK is BROKEN
THE NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE
ELECTS TWO SENATORS.
Two Dark Horses, Gov. Dietrich
and Hon. j. H. Willard of Omaha
Awarded the Togas-E Each Re-
ceives Full Republican Vote.

At 1880 o'clock last Thursday afternoon
Lieut.. Gov. Savage announced that Gov
Charles II. Dietrich had been elected by
the Joint session of the Nebraska lesisla-
ture to fill the %uneXpircd term OF the late
Senator Hayward, and that j.. III. Mlliard
of Omaha, had been elected to the long
term of six years, beginning March u next.
Each received 20 votes, the entire strength
of the republican members of the legisla-
ture.
The announcement was met with APP
plause from all parts of the legislative
hall, which was crowded to suffocation by
the legislators and hundreds of spectators.
The cannon outside the building on the
capitol grounds doomed forth Its approval.
and the audience joined in singing "Amer-
ica.''
Such a happy, tumu!tUous and demon
strative sceEe was never before witnessed
in the state house. All the enmities
aroused by the three months fight were
forgotten, past differences We're laid aside
and men who had been prominent candi-
dates for the two positions joined the re-
lieved legislators in shouting their APP
proval. A special committee waited on
the governor in his Office and escorted him
to the bar of the house, where amid the
waving of handkerchiefs, flags and hats,
accompanied by terrific cheering, he was
introduced as ssthe new senator and ex-
governor"
Senator Dietrich said that if he could
speak what his heart felt he might be able
10 express his thanks for the high testimo-
NAL he had received. lie gloried in the
fact that the man who had received the
caucus nomination for United States sem
ator and fifty-nine votes in JOINT convention
had had the manhood, the courage, the
high mindedness and the true Republican
spirit to withdraw rather than see the
state 60 unrepresented. The senator de-
clared that he would have no friendSto re-
ward, no enemies TO punish, and closed by
saying that he woul |. to the best of his
ability, serve rs the senator of all the peo-
pie. lie concluded by stating that three
weeks ago, as President Mckinley stood
before him, with his hand upon the lapels
of his coat, and urged him TO see that the
state be not unrepresentel, he had assured
the president that there would be two Re
publican senators elected. And now he
has them,'' he said.
Senator Willard also spoke at some
length. Defeated candidates were called
on for responses. All spoke in the same
vein. They congratulated the state and
the Republicans on having settled the
deadlock. Currie, Crounse, Hinshaw and
Rosewater all spoke. Thompson and
Meiklejohn could not be found.
Senators Dietrich and Willard each re-
ceived the entire Republican strength, 10
votes, there being one absentee. The fu-
sionists gave Senator Allen IS votes and
Geo. W. Berg of Lincoln 9 votes for the
short term. and w. Ii. Thompson 80 and
G. NJ. Hitchcock s for the long term.
1t is not certain when Lieut.. Gov. Saw
age Wal succeed the late Gov. Dietrich.
The latter must send his resignation to the
legislature.
