Six Firemen Hurt.

NEW YORK, Feb. Sire br,'-e out
shortly after midnight in the car sheds at
Paterson, y. j., and the flames. driven by
a brisk wind spread to the surrounding
buildings. AT this hour it seems as though
the fire is getting beyond control. The First
Baptist Church is burning and it is feared
the loss will be enormous. though even an
approximate estimate now is impossible.
a. NAT this hour the Baptist Church
has been gutted. The flames have started
from a dozen places in the vicinity and the
wind is adding to the fury Of the flames.
The police report no fatalities so far. The
Office Of the Paterson Guardian is burning
and that of the Call is threatened. The
electric lighting system is disabled and
the town is in darkness. Assistance has
been asked from nearby towns, and there
is a panic among the citizens. The old
City Hail. one of the most ancient struc-
lures in Paterson, is doomed. The damage
will amount to hundreds of thousands Of
dollars. At this time the iremen have no
control of the fire.

WAS BENT ON MURDER
JAMES DAVIDSON, FORMERLY OF LO-
GANsPORT, ND,
Fatally Shoots His Wife, Wounds Two
Other Persons and Is Laid Out
Himself with a Bail Bat.

CHICAGO. Feb. S.-James Davidson ia
tally shot his wife, Flora Davidson, to-
night, seriously wounding his father-in-
law and was then beaten into insensibility
with baseball bat by the wounded broth
in-law. Davidson's wife left him recently
and was living with her mother and father
at No. 7400 Adams avenue. Tonight Dav-
idson gained admission to the house by q
stratagem and Immediately shot his wife
four times. He then shot his wife's father,
Peter NJ. Roberts, infiicting a wound in the
forearm. Robertss son Edward was shot in
the shoulder. Davidson then went into a
side room to reload his revolver, saying
he would return and finish them all. AS
soon as he emerged young Roberts attacked
him with baseball bat. Davidson is now in
the hospital and may not live until morn
ing. He is a printer.
Mrs. Davidson was married to Davidson
twelve years ago, and lived with him at
LoganspOrt, Ind, until FIVE weeks ago,
when he quarreled with her and left her
because Of alleged jealousy. The woman,
with her three children, then returned to
her fathers home here, and since then had
heard nothing of her husband until last
night.

WOMEN AND CRIMINALS.
UnsolvabIe Problem I'm Psychology
Involved iu a Recent Episode.
Brooklyn Eagle.

The escape of two desperate convicts
from a Pittsburg prison, with the cOnniv-
ance and assistance of a woman, is another
instance of the remarkable fascination
which lawbreakers frequently exercise over
those whose moral nature, finer than that Of
mere men, naturally revolts against crime.
According to the story now a hand. the
wife of the warden furnished saws and pis-
tolls TO Edward and John Biddle, convicted
OF murder and under sentence Of death.
The men overpowered the guards and are
now at liberty. The woman has gone too,
leaving behind her four children as we'll as
her husband, who declares that she was in
love with Edward Biddle, whom she had
never seen until he was put into her hus-
bands keeping as a criminal. The whole
unsavory history of criminOlogy is full OF
womans weakness for men who have con-
spicuouSly and brutally violated the law.
No matter how vile the crime, no matter
how degraded the criminal, there are usual
ly women who would palliate the offense
and offer consolation to the prisoner. The
old knights of the road who levied tribute
upon the travelling public We're always the
idols of high-bred women, who sent them
noSegayS and love songs when they Ian
gushed in prison and followed them with
admirat alton and sympathy to the very foot
ness, to call il by no harsher name, was
exCusable in the days when men of polish
and breeding not infrequently wore the
mask of the heath rider and made their
tesy accompanied crime and the marvellous
qualities of innocent Black Bess lent glory
to the exploits of villainous Dick Turpin.
But i'm this century. when crime has lost its
glamour, when murder and robbery are
usually matters Of dastardly conception
and brutal execution. why should women
send flowers and notes TO imprisoned ras-
Gals or aid them TO dodge the penalties they
so richly deserve? This is a problem in
psychology which has never been satisfac-
torily solved.

ANTI-ANARCHIsT BILL OPPOSED.
Lanhnm Would Not Protect officials
More Than Other Citizens.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-Representative
Lanham, Of Texas, Democratic member of
the House judiciary committee, to-day pre-
sented a minority report on the bill for
the protection of the President against
assault and conspiracy. While agreeing
with the idea that the United States should
not be made an asylum for anarchy and
those who oppose organized government.
yet he dissented from giving the President
protection not accorded to other citizens.
As TO this ne said:
."I deny the proposition that one honest
and lawabiding mans life is any more
sacred than that of another. Any officer
of our government is but the servant of
the people and The servant cannot be
greater than his lord The holding of
possession Of office does not Of itself rem
der any man impeccable or immune from
human frailties and imperfectiOns Public
men among can do wrong. There is
such thing as royalty or titled nobility or
hereditary prerogative in the United States.
With us there are no artificial distinctions
ana one good man is as good as another
and much sanctity surrounds the life
of one as it does of another. The murder
of the humblest citizen of the land is just
as heinOus, just as feloniOus, as that of
the greatest or most distinguished Murder
is murder upon whOmSOever inflicted, and
a human life is a human life by wnOmsO-
ever enjoyed. The life of the highest Of
ficer in the country, or that of any am
bassadOr of q foreign government, is no
more precious in the sight of God and
republican men than is that Of the hum
blest and most Insignificant resident of
our great Republic"
Mr. Lanham points out that Booth, Gui-
teau and CZOlgOcZ. presidential assasSinS
have met death He holds also that the
States should deal with the subject and
that this federal law probably would mag

PRINCE is A LUTHERAN
HIS GERMAN HIGHNESS MAY ATTEND
A NEW YORK CHURCH.
Preparations for the Reception OF the
Royal INSTRUMENTATION

.ec,al 70 the Ind,apapolis Journal.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
NEW YORK, Feb. S.-Prince Henry OF
Prussia, who has been invited to attend
St James Lutheran Church, New York.
during his stay is member Of the sec
ond largest Lutheran parish in Berlin, and,
like his brother, the Emperor, takes an
active interest in religious matters. The
EohenzolIerns are Lutherans, and belong
to the Prussian State Church. So far as
government goes this church includes the
reformed bodies, which correspond to the
German and Dutch Reformed bodies in this
country There are in Germany fully ten
times as many Lutheran churches as Re-
formed ones. The control of German Prot
estant churches is in the hands of the Con-
sistory, which is mainly judicial in its
functions, but possesses some executive
power. All German churches, including the
State Church, are quite independent in the
matter of doctrine, but the one in Berlin
to which the prince belongs is classed as
conservative in theology. The Prussian
State Church has in this country a small
Independent synod, with headquarters in
st. Louis. 1t affiliates with no other Luth-
eran body in America, and has really no
legal or dOctrinal relation with the parent
body in Germany. SiXty-tve per cent. of
the German population is Protestant, 30 per
cent Roman Catholic and the rest Jews
and various sects. Berlin is strong Luth-
eran center, as Cologne and Strasburg are
strong Roman Catholic ones. The princes
Berlin parish has for pastor famous &C.
clesiastic, whose royal parishiOners are al
ways approachable and generous givers.
The Emperor gives regularly to missions,
especially to those in China, but the prince
has never gone out of his way to express
preference in the matter of application of
his benevolence. No one knows yet wheth-
er he will attend divine services while in
this country, but it is expected that he
will do so, as he usually does when at

PRINCE HENRY'S TOUR.
Correspondents Cannot Be AccOmmO-
dated on the Train.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The Presidents
delegates for the entertainment of Prince
Henry have been overwhelmed with appll-
cations from the principal newspapers of
the country seeking accommodations for
their representatives at the launching OF
the Meteor and also on the special train
on which Prince Henry will journey through
the country. The German embassy also has
been in receipt of similar communications
hence it has been thought proper to issue
a statement on the subject. which takes
the form of a letter, one of many others,
written in response TO an application from
one of the great journals of the country
In substance this letter states that while
it would be gratifying to the delegates
if the individual newspapers Of the country
could be represented as they desire on
these occasions, il has been found impossi-
bic 10 comply with their applications for
the purely physical reason that no train
could be made up TO accommodate all of
the applicants and yet make schedule time,
and it is of course improper to discrimi-
nate as between the newspapers. BY ecOno-
mizing space on the train it has been possi-
bic to provide six places, three for repre-
sentatiVes of the American press assOcia-
tions and three for correspondents of news
papers published in Germany. who will be
designated by the German ambassador The
delegates are confident that the newspapers
will thus be able to obtain all the news of
the trip without favoritism.
As TO the launch at Shooters island Mr.
wallace Downey, head OF the shipbuildine
firm and located at No. Il Broadway New
York city. has undertaken TO provide ac-
coramodations for newspapers which make
apDlication TO him directly.
In Prince Henry's box will sit Mayor
Low the prince and suite. Baron Won Hol-
Iehen. and, II the President remains, Mr.
Roosevelt and the Cabinet members. One
hundred seats were allotted 70 Mayor Low
for distrfbution and these will probably go
to the city official committees and others
oficiaily connected with the princes re-
ceDtion one thousand seats have been
reserved by the citizens committee for dis
tribution. These will go 10 members OF the
COMMITTEES and others, but each must pay
for his own seat All other seats will be
offered for sale TO the general public.
