The Mill Strike.

Yesterdays Crowley News in
speaking of the strike among the
rice mill employees says:
The strike at the rice mills
this morning had assumed a
somewhat more serious aspect.
At work hour this morning the
railroad tracks were lined with
strikers and all the mills We're
without crews except the Nation
al.
One of the new features of the
situation this morning was the
action taken by the negroes.
They did not go out with the
white men yesterday but this
morning they remained out, and
now the work in every depart
ment of the mills is nearly at a
standstil, although rice is still
being received.

ed temporary organization by
electing chairman and secre-
tary. The meeting was held be-
hind closed door.
1t was agreed, although the
action was informal, that ten
hour day be asked for instead of
eleven as was asked in the petit
ton which had been presented to
the mill men. Steps were also
taken toward the formation of
a union. The secretary was in
structed to place an ADVERTISE
ment in New Orleans daily pap
ers requesting laboring men to
keep away from Crowley while
the strike was on. Another
meeting will be held tonight and
it is expected that the permanent
organization of a union will be
effected at tonight's meeting.
About enty-tive men came
in from New Orleans yesterday
on the evening train, but upor
learning the situation, agreed to
keep away from the mills.
There was arumor on the street
that crowd of Italians and neg
roes are to arrive here tonight
to take the place of the strikers

PHILADELPHIA HAS
TERRIBLE FIRE
About Eighteen Lives Lost.
The Origin of the Fire
Unknown.

Philadelphia, Oct. 26.-Eigh-
teen known dead and property
loss amounting to upward of
100000 is the awful result of
fire which occurred today in the
business section of the city.
Fully a score of injured were
treated at various hospitals.
Police and firemen are tonight
delving into the ruins in search
of bodies supposed to have been
buried beneath the debris. as it
is feared that others beside the
known dead may have lost their
lives in the flames.
= The buildings destroyed were
the eight-story structure, 1919
and 1921 Market street, occupied
byHunt, Wilkinson & Co., uphol-
sterers and furniture dealers, and
a three story building occupied
by small merchantmen.
The origin of the confagration
is unknown. 1t is said that an
explosion of naptha or gasoline
in the basement was the cause,
but this denied by Mr.. Wilkinson,
Rumor has it also that an eleva-
tor constructor at wcrk in the
basement permitted tie fam e. of
his Ian tern to communicate With
some of the gaseous liq uids stor
ed in the basement and that this
was the caus of the confagration.
Men and women died linger-
ing, agonizing death in the pres
ence OF thousands of spectators
who were unable to lift hand to
their assistance.

AS he uttered this sentence to-
day Admiral Schley was in the
midst of a description of the bat

the Brooklyn and the Spanish
ships as being sheets of flame,
with the Oregon fastening to the
Brooklyn's assistance as the lat,

Admiral Schley went upon the

the usual recess, until shortly

The adjournment 20 minutes

due to the fact that the admiral S

At the time Of adjournment

Schley was reported as saying,

The explanation OF the loop was

necessary maneuver, as described
by Admiral Schley, who said that
the question of personal equation
never once entered into its exc

it was necessary to prevent the
Brooklyn, which was the flagship,
from being disabled early in the
action, when larger interests de-
