from Reaching a Burning Building and
Seven Lives Were Lost.

Chicago, May because a Lake
Shore freight train three times as long
as the law allows blocked the way on
Marquette avenue, seven persons were
burned to death and II were badly in
jured. The fremen,. unable to reach
the flames or stop the train, were
obliged to witness the holocaust with
out doing anything to stop it. The
building which burned was a three
story frame tenement in South Chi
cagO, old and ripe for destruction by
fire. From some unknown cause the
house was in flames before an alarm
was given Then when the engines
came there was a delay Of nine min
utes before the train of Ga cars passed.
The protests Of the firemen were an
swered by the brakemen with sug-
gestions to 'chase" themselves.

THE PETER COOPER CLUB.
w. J. Bryan Speaks at the Banquet at
Omaha on Fusion and Urges
Its Continuance.

Omaha, Neb., May s.-The annual
banquet of the Peter Cooper club
was held in this city last night,
about $50 guests from various parts
of the state being present. ". J.
Bryan and W. Y. Allen, the guests
of honor, occupied places on either
side of President Quinby, of the club.
Mr.. Bryan spoke upon Fusion" urg-
ing its cOntinuas~e, in the following
words: Fusion q we have had it in
Nebraska is in cooperation between
the reform forces without the loss
of party identity or the surrender Of
party organization. Fusion between
democrats and Populists was advO-
Gated in 1890 by Hon. J. Sterling Nor
ton, but it was not actually attempt
ed until four years later. In the
campaign of 1892 most of the demo-
Gratis, following the advice of the
democratic national committee, voted
for the populist electors to help de-
feat the republicans. Fusion is the
open and honest plan of cooperation.

tee expect it to signify that the pOpU-

against the vicious combinations Of
wealth.

Topeka, Kan, May 8.-The populist
state committee adjourned yesterday

Presbytsrian General Assembly yFm aEaks
Few Changes I'm Creed-Church's
Boards Out OF Debt.

Philadelphia, May 7.-Presbyterians
from al parts OF the United States
are preparing to attend the general
assembly, which meets in this city
May 16. It VIII be the most notable
general assembly in the recent his
tory Of the Presbyterian church, for
the whole question OF creed revision
Is to come up for consideration. The
proposition to revise the standards OF
the Presbyterian church has evoked
no little opposition and great deal
Of criticism, friendly and otherwise.
To many people the confession Of
faith is a document only trife less
sacred than the Bible itself, and the
suggestion of men that it can be re-
vised in unimportant particulars, or
worse, substituted by a new creed, is
considered sacrilege. Tt is safe to pre-
diet that the present confession viii
not be changed in any essential doc
trine; the Calvinistic system viii be
maintained. A note of thanksgiving
VIII run through the assembly, for
every one of the eight boards or arms
Of the church is out OF debt This
means that 81, 100000 or $4,000, 900 have
been raised for missionary and educa-
tional operations and the care Of the
aged and infirm.

BROTHER INsUREs BROTHER.
a Policy Where an Interesting Legal
Problem Was Involved.

Kansas City, Mo-, May s.-Judge
Ellison, of the Kansas City court Of
appeals, rendered a decision which
involves an interesting life insurance
question, in deciding the case of Wal
ter N. Reynolds against the Pruden-
tial Insurance company. Reynolds
secured policy for $1,000 on the life
of his brother, who died within a
short time, only one premium having
been paid, and that was paid by Rey-
nolds. The brother made affidavit at
the examination that he was not a
consUmPtive, but the cOmPny claims
he died of consumption and resists
payment on that ground. 1--WE are Of
the opinion" says Judge Ellison, ''that
adult brothers, neither dependent up
on the other, have not from the mere
relationship an insurable interest in
the life of the other. And, therefore,
neither can make a valid contract Of
insurance insuring the life of the 9th
er for his benefit

rHE YoUNeERs HOPEFUL.
TIE Two aIIssourians Confined in the Prison
at saltwater, MINI, Stand 3 Chance
Of Being ParOIed-

ST. Paul, Mimi, Nay S.-CoIeman
and James Younger, the most noted
conviets IN the state prison at Still
water, yesterday won the first step
towards freedom from that institu-
ton, to which they were sentenced
for life over p years ago. For 20
years their friends have been work
ing in their behalf, each governor be
ing importuned frequently for a par
don. The third brother, Bob, died in
the Saltwater prison few years ago,
but the efforts for the liberation for
the now old men have never ceased.
This year bin was presented to the
legislature providing for the parole
of life prisoners and got through and
secured the approval Of Gov. Van
SAINT, but an amendment to it required
the unanimous approval Of the board
of pardons before paroles OF life
prisoners could become effective.
Under the provisions of this law the
board of prison managers yesterday
unanimously recommended the pa
role of the Youngers. This recon-
mendation viii be at once presented
to the board Of Pardons, but before
final action it would be necessary to
have the legality Of two provisions Of
the new law passed upon. In the
meantime the two surviving Young
ers are rejoicing over the hope Of
ultimate release from their prison

SUICIDE TO REPAY LOAN.

Lack OF nerve and the discovery
that she was being deceived led Sarah
Johnson, resident of Troy, n. Y, to
make disclosures that revealed a plot
to defraud an insurance company by
suicide. The woman was recently 10
poverty, and sought cid from loan
broker, who advanced her small sum
OF money, taking chattel mortgage
uDOn her household effects. She was
unable to pay the interest aod called al
the Office of the broker. Payment was
demanded, wbereupon che broke down,
declaring that her poverty had render
ed her desperate and she wished she
were deed, adding that she had serious
thoughts OF committing suicide.
According to the story told by the
woman to Jones q Russell, attorneys,
whom she subsequently visited, the
loan agent grasped the suggestion and
proposed that she take policy on her
lille before doing such an acl, saying
at the So me time that she might insure
for 81, 900 and by go doing repay him
for his Indebtedness by transferring the
policy to him.
Sne assenled and he advanced her
more money and obtained a policy on
her life in the New York Life Iasursnce
Company. She failed TO carry out her
part of the agreement and declared she
was told that unless something was
done by November IA tho policy would
expire.
That date passed and the woman
called on the agent o. the insurance
company and told him of her Inability
to pay further upon the policy.
She was told that the matter had been
attended to and that the policy wss
still in force, and that was for $4,000
Instead Of 81 Geo. Sse lheFeOpop re-
lated all the iacts connected with the
case,
The agent ct once teIegraphed the
home Office in New York, with the re-
suit that representatives we're sent to
Troy at once TO investigate. Jones
& Russell, the senior member of which
firm is police justice, made demand
Tor the possession of the policy.
The home office Of the company seDt
an attorney Johu o. Buckley, of Albany,
formerly of the State department OF To-
suraDce, to Troy yesterday. Ai'er
making an investigation, they had
long conference with the Com missioner
of Public SAT- ty, Mr.. Coyle, at which
the loan agent was present.
1t was decided to settle the matter so
as to avoid publicity, and the policy
wss given to the representatives of the
company and snnulled. The woman
received cash grstuity. 1t is not
known whether the insurance company
will prosecute the matter any further.
