DEPARTMENT STORE BURNED.
Costly Fire at Pittsburgh, PA
Score of Families Homeless
and One Life Lost.

Pittsburgh, Pa, April 29.-Fire at
the corner of Carson and Seventeenth
streets, south side, resulted in the loss
of one life, property loss estimated
ut $22j. ZOO, consumed over a dozen
buildings and rendered a score of
families homeless. The flames were
discovered in the basement of the
four-story department stores of
George L. Lorsch e. Bro, and in a
very short time the entire building
was burning furiously. 1t was in ruins
within 80 minutes. A panic ensued
among the customers and employees,
which resulted in what seemed at
first a well-founded report that eight
persons had persisted. This was happi-
ly untrue after the fire had been con-
trolled, the only fatality being the
burning to death of Mrs. Kate Don
ley's acknowledgement child.
When the fire broke out Mrs. Donley
and child were on the fourth floor
of the Lorsch building. In her haste
to escape the mother fell on the stair
way and was rendered unconscious.
In the excitement the child was either
forgotten OF burned before aid could
reach it.

ISTHMIAN CANAL TREATY.
Admiral Dewey Approves the Pro-
posed Provision Establishing
the Neutrality of the Canal.

New York, April ca special to
the Herald from Washington says:
In agreeing to insert in the pro-
posed isthmian canal treaty a provi-
sion establishing the neutrality Of the
projected waterway. Secretary Hay
has taken action which meets with
the full approval of Admiral Dewey
and the ma jority Of naval officers.
When told that the president would
pledge the United States to observe
the principle OF neutrality in the con-
vention under negotiation, the ad-
miIal CALCULATED.
"Splendid. More than year ago l
said that the canal should be neutral.
l am more convinced to-day of the
necessity OF such action. Erection of
Notifications would make the canal
one of the prime detectives of our
enemies operations in times of war.
BESIDES their construction would en-
tail enormous expense and necessitate
constant expenditure to keep them
manned and in proper condition. =
see no necessity for them.
THE neutrality o. the canal can be
guaranteed by our fleet. The canal
is to be a commercial waterway, and
naturalization, there fore,will mean its
preservation"

means of offensive warfare The
most important is torpedo tube
pointing straight ahead on line
with her keel.
This is for discharging tOrpcdocs
under water at hostile ships. There
is another torpedo tube in the bow
pointing upward at an angle of about
20 degrees, which is to be used for
firing aerial torpedoes.
This-'s intended for the purpose Of
hurting a torpedo through the air
at distance of mile, either at n
warship or at fortification, in case
the torpedo boat is used as a means
of attack against a foreign port.
The chief use for which the subma-
rine boat is intended. however, is for
coast defense and harbor defense
along the extensive sea coasts of the
United States.
The Holland boat is made to dive
under the surface by opening the air
chambers in the lower part of the
hull and filling them with water bal
last and at the same time directing
the vessels course downward by a
horizontal rudder. Nine tons of wa
ter will cause the boat to sink and
run five feet below the surface. Still
more water ballast can he taken on
to cause her to sink Il depth of 14o
feet.
The Holland boat is capable OF
making a speed of ten knots an hour
when sailing "awash," or with only
her coming tower above water. Her

ard Took Fatal Dose Her
seIf-One child May Die.

St. Louis, April 29.-Iust before
midnight, in jealous rage Mrs. Fam
ME Friedberg gave cocaine and NOR
phine to Der two children and took
some of the poison herself. She died
within "a short time. Her little daugh-
ter, Alma, aged five, is in a critical
condition, with but one chance in a
hundred of living. The other daugh-
ter, Emma. aged seven, refused to take
much of the poison, and suffered none
from her mothers attempt TO Kill
her.

old, and the wife of Samuel Fried
berg, a medical student, has been
Jealous of her husband, to whom she
had been married about eight years.
They had bad frequent quarrels, and
the wife accused her husband of pay
ing attention to other women. Late
Sunday evening she SEM the little girl,
Alma, for some ice cream. When she
returned the mother mixed with the
cream the morphine, cocaine and
whisky, and gave portions to the two
children and took some herself. The
elder girl, after all had partalien of
the cream, frightend at what her
mother was doing, ran into the street
screaming that her mother was kill
ing her sister and herself. The neigh
bors ran in and found the woman on

fcring frightfully from the poison.
Doctors were summoned, but could do
nothing for the mother. The young
est girl they worked on for hours, but
she was still in critical condition at
last accounts, with little chance of
living. The mother died shortly after
the arrival of the physicians.
The woman left two notes written
in German. One for the police stated
Tat her husband was to blame for all
that she had done. She left instruc-
tions as to where to find $50, which
she had saved and hidden away, with
which she wished TO be buried. She

speed beneath the surface is six to
eight knots.
In a calm sea it is estimated that
the tiny gray speck of the subma-
rine boats coming tower cannot be
detected by powerful marine glasses
more than a mile. In a rough sea
the tower will hardly be visible at
more than few hundred yards.
The danger of the submarine boat
being hit by an enemy's guns is very
small, as the little coming tower is
but 2h feet in diameter. But precau-
ton is taken to protect it by four
inch plates, which will resist the fire
of four-inch projectiles.
1t might be supposed that boat
of this sort would be completely at
the mercy of the waves in storm
But actual trials have shown that she
has lees motion in heavy sea than

fected with n Persistent Fun
gus or Parasitic Growth.

st. Paul, Mimi, April ga special
from Fargo, n. d., says:
Flax growers in the northwest have
been alarmed over the diseased con-
dition of the crop for year or two,
and as n result of investigations, Prof.
II. l.. Bolley, of the North Dakota
Agricultural college, has discovered
that the fax plant is afflicted with a
fungus or parasitic growth, similar
to smut on wheat. The worst feature
is the positive proof that the fungus
remains in the soil for years, and is
known to have reappeared after the
land had been cropped in wheat tEo
years.
Investigations are now in progress
to discover some method of treating
the soil to eradicate the growth, or to
treat the grain as wheat is treated
for smut with formaldehyde.
Prof, Bolley is one of the best au-
thorities in the west for the treatment
of wheat for smut, and was the dis
covercr of scabs on potatoes and the
methods of prevention.

pleased with her performance.
The United States government has
ordered five more of these boats,

Adder, Moccasin, Porpoise and

could have been sunk as she lay at
anchor in the waters of Narragan-
sett bay from a torpedo fired at her
by the submarine boat Holland. Not
only would the New York have suf-
fered but the tug Leyden would have
gone to the bottom, too.
But it was all practice, a night at
tack, and it was most successful,
proving that the New Holland boat
is u most valuable part of the United
States navy.
After dark the torpedo boats Nor
ris and Rodgers and the Holland
were sent outside the brealtwater,
soon to be followed by the Leydcn,
the last named taking up a position
at the entrance of the harbor. AS
the others made the attack an at
tempt was to be made by the Leyden
to pick them out with searchlights.
So far as the torpedo boats were
concerned it was successful, they be-
ing found at will, but with the Hol-
land it was a different matter, and
after she had plunged under the wa
ter she was not seen again until she
was found at her dock when the Ley
den went in.
The crew of the Holland say that
the deck of the wonderful craft was
dry all the time they were under the
water. The Holland approached near
enough to the Leyden to fire tor
pedo and then turned, crossed the
bay and went within short distance
of the New York without detection.
