HEAVY LOSS BY FIRE.
Hammond Packing Company Suffers
Serious Damage.

Chicago, Oct. 23-Fire attacked the
packing houses of the G.. H. Hammond
Company at Hammond, Ind, tonight
and within an hour gained such head
way that the destruction of the plant
was feared. The Hammond fire depart
ment and the private fire fighting COM
pany of the packing company were un-
able to cope with the flames and an
emergency call was sent to Chicago and
South Chicago. Four engines from the
Chicago department were loaded upon
a special train on the Fort Wayne
road and hurried over cleared tracks
to the burning district, Aid was also
sent from South Chicago.
The fire began at the south end of
the plant in an old frame house, used
as the beef killing department. In an
hour the car shops, oiling rooms, beef
killing department and blacksmith
shops were destroyed. 1t then seemed
that the fire had burned itself out. bot
in a few minutes the four-story brick
building containing the cooling rooms.
one of the largest buildings of the
plant, was burning. At 10 p. m. the
fire was burning fiercely and the loss
up to that time was estimated at $780,
900.
The packing company's plant covers
fifteen acres. Eighteen hundred men
are employed in the cooling depart
ment.
The fire was gotten under control at
II 80 o'clock, after four departments
had been destroyed. The loss is $780,
900.

TYPHO0N IN SAMAR.
Three Days of storm Interrupt the
Wires and Block Communication.

Manila, Oct. 23.-Nothing has been
heard from the Island of Samar FOR
three days, owing to a typhoon having
blown down the telegraph lines, ex-
cepting one cable message and mail ad-
vices. Admiral Rodgers has received
a report by gunboat. He has notified
the troops at the ports to be on their
guard, owing to surprise and massacre
of the company of the Ninth Regiment
of Samar. all of the buildings in the
vicinity of the barracks were imme-
diately razed.
Gen. Smith, on his arrival at Calba-
yog. Island of Samar, sent reinforce
ments to Weyler. They found the gar
rison of that place, numbering fifteen
men. besieged by over 100 bolo men.
The United States transport Summer
leaves here tonight with $50 men of
the Twelfth Infantry.
The cruiser New York was delayed
by coaling and taking supplies on
board, but she left Manila last night
with $50 marines under Maj. Waller.
There are $500 troops in the island
of Samar.
Gen. Chaffee does not anticipate any
further disasters. He considers that
there is no cause for alarm. The gar
risons, he says, have been increased
and every precaution has been taken
to prevent another surprise like the
one at Balangiga, which was unfortu-
nate for two reasons, firstly, the loss Of
the men. and, secondly, the effects
which it will have on other parts of the
archipelago The general, however, be-
lieves this only will be temporary.
1t is known that agitators have been
endeavoring to influence many COM
munities by giving glowing accounts of
the occurrence in Samar.
The Central Filipino committee has
issued a proclamation confirming NAL
var as the successor of Aguinaldo.
Copies of the document have been
widely circulated.

HOT NOW IN OHIO
TWO PARTIES DIFFER UPON WHAT
ARE THE ISSUES.
ONE IGNORES STATE ISSUES
WHILE THE OTHER RECOGNIZES
NO OTHER CAUSE OF WAR.

Opening of Democratic Campaign

nounced as "Firing From Behind
the Tomb of McI<inley''-Col. Kill
bourne Compared the Platform
and Discussed State and National
Issues.
Bucyrus. o., Oct. 23.-The peculiar
situation is presented in Ohio of the
two parties, not only differing on is
sues, but also as to what are the is
sues. At the Republican opening at
Delaware last Saturday none of the
five speakers referred to state issues.
At the Democratic opening OF the
campaign here to-day state issues
were paramount in all of the six
speeches of the afternoon and of the
same number at the night meeting.
Nearly all the speakers denounced to-
day what they called firing from be-
hind the tomb of Mckinley"
Col. Kilbourne compared the plat
form and discussed both state and nat
ional issues as did also Charles w.
Baker, who is considered the
Democratic candidate for senator.
Mr.. Baker opened, saying the Republi-
cans favored a canal in Nicaragua,
while they had allowed the Ohio ca
nails to go to electric traction COM
panies without compensation. He
stated that the Republican leaders

questions. Chairman Daugherty, Gen
Finley, Anthony Howells, Congressmer
Norton, Zimmerman and. Mccarthy
were all in tune with this keynote, but
it's most forceful exponent was Mayor
Tom L. johnson of Cleveland, who bur-
lesqued Republican orators in their at
tempt to carry the war into the Phil
ippines, Porto Rico and Cuba and keeI
attention away from the conditions OF
Ohio.
Mayor Johnson also burlesqued Sen
ator Hannas watchword of "let vel
enough alone" saying that the trusts
and others who were escaping then

cry.
Mayor johnson then referred TO the
extent of the increase of Senator Han.

said, eff the same policy were pursued
elsewhere in the state, the people would
appreciate the desire of some to 'le
well enough alone.
The greatest demonstrations Of th'
day occurred while Johnson, Baker
Norton and others made charges of in
justice and neglect in state affairs.
Among those on the Kilbourne ex-
cursion train from Columbus was Con
gressman John j. Lentz, who opposed
the nomination of Col. Kilbourne
Mr.. Lentz was accompanied by
Mayor Hinckle of Columbus and
members of his cabinet. Some of the
enthusiasts had opposed Kilbourne an6

In accordance with the policy of BE-

neighbors in Columbus, no personali-

ONE POINT FOR THE ANTS
MOTION TO QUAsH HIANDAMUs IN
INTERPRETATION CASE
DENIED
CASE MUST COME TO TRIAL
Claimed That Headings Did Not
Show Child Had Been Wrong
fully Treated - Judge
Did Not Agree.

Judge Bum, Of the district court, has
denied the motion Of the assistant cor
poration attorney to. Quash the writ OF
mandamus in the case of the State eX.
rel. Frank D. Freeman against the board
of education. Superintendent of Schools
Lewiston, Principal Manion and Rose
Carroll, teacher of the German school.
The matter came before Judge Bum
at special term yesterday on writ of
mandamus to compel the defendants to
permit little Edith Freeman to attend
school, right which the plaintiff claims,
the school officials have denied since Jan.
81. The case is a test case of the anti
vaccine cult, and the result will be eager
ly awaited by people on both sides.
When the case came up yesterday the
assistant corporation attorney entered n
special appearance and moved to quash
the writ on the ground that 1t did not
state sufficient facts and was not prop
erly drawn up. According to the assist
ant corporation attorney there was moth
ing in the pleadings to show that the
child was not rightfully excluded school
benefits. If the child had been refused
admittance to the schools. the reasons
for the refusal should be set up. The
presumption was that the REALTORS had
performed their duties. One of the pro-
visions of the city charter was to the eff
feet that children must have a certificate
of vaccination as prerequisite for en-
tering school.
Mr.. Pike argued that the statute, not
the charter, should govern. The pro-
vision of the statute was that all chill
dren living in the district, between the
ages of five and twenty-one years of
age, must be received in school. This
was constitutional right which could
not be abrogated by the charter.
Judge Bum decided that the respondent
would have to make a return so that the
case might be properly presented before
the court, and designated Wednesday as
return day.

FAVOURABLE" HEART DISEASE
SOON CURED.

During the last two or three years
very great Improvement has been made
In the treatment of diseases of the heart.
Cases formerly considered incurable now
readily yield to new remedies. The well

eases, Franklin Miles, M. D., LII. B.. OF
Chicago, will send s2.5 worth of his new
Special Treatment free to any of our az
1icted readers.
This liberal offer is for the purpose of
demonstrating the unusual curative pow
ers of his new treatments for heart
troubles, such as short breath, pain in
the side, oppression in the chest, irregI-
lar pulse, palpitatfon, smothering spells,
putting of the ankles or dropsy.
They are the result of twenty-five years
Of careful study extensive research and
remarkable experience In treating dis
eases of the heart, stomach and nerves;
which often complicate each case.
The Treatments are prepared expressly
for each patient, as the result is very
much more certain and satisfactory.
Few physicians have such confidence
in their remedies And there is no rea-
son why all afflicted persons should not
avail themselves of this liberal offer. No
death comes more suddenly than that
