Mt Rochester, n. Y.

Rochester,N. Y, Jan. S.-Twenty-
seven children are dead and 25 injured
many so badly they cannot recover. as
result of a fire which wrecked the
Hubbell orphan asylum in this city
shortly after one O'clock Tuesday
morning. There were $50 inmates and

frail structure with wings extending
on either side.

WANT ACT REPEALED.
Business Interests Ask That the Ma
tional Bankruptcy Law Be
Wiped Out.

Washington, Jan. s.-Urgent petit
tions are pouring In upon members of
congress from commercial and mer-
camille associations demanding the
repeal of the national bankruptcy act.
Large commercial and jobbing houses
in various cities are almost unit in
calling upon congress to wipe from
the statute books this measure. which,
they claim, places a premium upon
fraud and allows INSCRIPTIONS debt
ors to make assignments.
The principal objection to the law
is that successful applicants before
the bankruptcy court may obtain free
dom from debt obligations in one
state and still hold valuable assets in
another which are not liable to liqui-
dalton. There are many other de-
fects in the law complained of by the
officials authorized to administer it.

AFFAIRS IN SOUTH AFRICA.
England's War Secretary Gives His
Views Regarding the Serious
Trend of Events

London, Jan. 9.-Lord Ragland, un-
der secretary of state for war, in an
interview regarding the serious trend
of events in South Africa and the pos
sibilities of peace, and the action the
war office is taking to mend matters,
said:
''The condition of affairs in South
Africa absolutely forbids prophecy. You
cannot call it war; yet in some respects
1t is worse than war. We are not nerv-
Gus over the possibilities of serious re-
bellion in Cape Colony. Had arms been
more plentiful there, the situation might
have been more dangerous. But the
scarcity of rifles and ammunition in the
colony robs the disturbance of the grav-
1ty it might otherwise have had.
You canot expect to end such a war as
this in a day. Meanwhile you may be
assured of the fact that the war office
is not guilty of inertia. Lord Kitchener
is getting all he asks for. Lord Roberts
has perfectly free hand. What can be
done is being done.''
London, Jan. Seen. Kitchener re-
ports another encounter, in which
three British officers and Is men have
been killed and two officers and 20
men wounded. The list of killed in
cludes Lieut.. Col. Laing, whose bril-
liant services during the war make
his loss especially grievous.

DECLINE TO SIGN.
At Last Moment the Chinese ENJOYS
Refuse to Afix Their Names
to Joint Note.

Picking, Jan. 10.-Li Hung Chang is
better. Both he and Prince Ching
baked at signing the joint note when
they considered the question until the
court was heard from again, explain
ing that the emperor's edict directing
them to put off signing prevented
them from using the imperial seal
until permission shall have been re-
ceived, which permission they claim
to expect hourly.
1t is known here among the Chinese
that the extreme anti-foreign element
is now in power and that the court
favorites now advise the empress
dowager. Of these. the best known are
Ii Chuan Lin, cabinet minister; Gen.
Ma and Tung Fuh Slang. Their views
coincide perfectly with those of the
southern viceroys. particularly with
those of Chang Chi Tung, who has
threatened to rebel if the note is
signed.
Ii Hung Chang and Prince Ching
both strongly urge the signing of the
agreement and they believe their coun-
sells must prevail. They have pointed
out, in the strongest possible terms,
that the very existence of China neces-
states the acceptance of the terms of
the powers. and that failure on the
part of China to. sign may mean the al
lies will, as soon as the state of the
weather makes such step feasible,
send troops over the country and that
parts of the empire heretofore I'M
touched will feel the scourge of war.
The Germans have sent two com
panies of infantry to the vicinity of
the Ming tombs, where trouble is re.
ported.

SPEAKS AT CHICAGO.
William j. Bryan Declares He Is No
Longer a Politician But
a Journalist.

Chicago, Jan. Civilian Jennings
Bryan set at rest all doubts as to his
political future Tuesday night at the
Jackson day banquet of the Bryan
league at the Sherman house by de-
claring: Il am private citizen, with
excellent prospects of remaining such.
1 do not want to be embarrassed by
being placed in an attitude of can
didate for any Office
One other startling and unexpected
declaration was the intimation that
the advocates of free silver were ready
to abandon their tenet in favor of
coinage on a gold basis.
Mr.. Bryan declared that the organi-
cation of the party was an internal
question and that defeat ought not
to discourage. If the platform was
right when made it ought to be right
now, he asserted. Former defeats
never destroyed the hope nor the
tenets OF the party.
His speech was brief, and concluded
by reaffirming the principles of lib
erty involved in the last campaign,
and he said that the Filipinos were en-
titled to their independence and that
Kruger will wear crown of deathless
fame when kings and emperors are
known no more.

In May, 1868, having dissolved partner
ship with Miles, he became junior part
ner of the firm of Plankinton & Armour,
pork packers.
In 1864 the Chicago house of his brother,
Herman 0. Armour, was affiliated with
the Milwaukee house. Herman was sent
to New York, where he opened an eastern
branch, called Armour, Plankinton &
Co., and Joseph F. Armour, a younger
brother, was placed in charge of the Chi
cago house, which was known as H. o.
Armour & Co. until 1870.
In 1865 Philip D. Armour made his first
world-famous coup by anticipating the
surrender of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and
netting about $2,00O00o for his firm by
selling pork from $50 down to $40 a bar
rel and filling the orders at an average
cost Of SIS a barrel.

Armour institute founded.
In 1892 an effort was made by leading
Chicago wheat operators to corner Mr..
Armour in gigantic wheat deal. His
chief danger of defeat and enormous loss
lay in the fact that his opponents had
secured all the elevator space. Within
80 days Armour had bought or built
enough elevators to store his grain and
disappOint his rivals.
Bought 100000 worth of gold in London
| on his personal account, and used it to
stave off disaster during the days of

Graceland cemetery Wednesday after
noon. In accordance with Mr.. Ar

ed to the Armour mission, where they
lay in state and were viewed by hun
dreds of friends and employees of the
Armour establishment.
