LIVES LOST IN FIRE
WISCONSIN, CENTRAL ORE
 DOCKS BURN.
Firemen and Dockmen Carried Away by Falling Ruin-Number of Dead Not Known-Property
 Loss Heavy.

Ashland. Wis. Nov. 22.-The Wisconsin Central ore dock was completely destroy ed by fire today. The loss is $50O,00o. In falling the dock carried with it number of firemen and dockmen and a number of lives were lost, just how many probably will not be known for several days. A number of badly injured firemen wrere rescued from the burning ruin.
 While an engine and half a hundred men were on a tramway connected with fighting fire, the dock gave way, falling with a crash and carrying with it 200 feet of the tramway. Fully a dozen men were seen to do down. The wreck fell into 20 feet of water. and it will be im- possible to recover the bodies for some time. A large force of men is engaged in an effort to recover the remains of the dead firemen.
 When the fire began the upper dock man was cut from the shore and lumber boat put off to rescue him. Another man, in running to the shore, fell into an ore pocket. and his companions were com pell to leave him to his fate. The fire is still raging and Mu:ray's saw mill is in danger. Moota's mill is also threat ened.

'NOLONGER
 LOVES NEGRO Roosevelt Has a Change of Heart.
 RESULT OF REGENT TRIP Roosevelt's Guests Speak of His New Ideas. Has Experienced Revulsion from His Pro-Negro Proclivities and No Longer Loves the Black Man So Intensely.
RESULT OF REGENT TRIP

Washington. Nov. 22.-(Special )-Men of sufficient consequence to have been in way guests of the President on his re. cent visit to the South. admit that they inferred from his customary frankness of speech that he had experienced d change of heart on the negro question.
 While these men necessarily refrain from repeating any remark let drop by the President, they gradually answer di- rect questions as to precise points upon which he dwelt with apparent freedom and without indication that he was speaking in strict confidence
 So freely did he talk that these men were much embarrassed, fearing that he would speak with equal frankness to others who would feel under no obliga- tions of hospitality, actual or implied.
 The Memphis News yesterday printed an extended and catey orical statement of the Presidents alleged change of heart as to the negro. and there Is reason to believe the substance of the story is sub stantially correct. It is that during his Southern trip he experienced a revulsion from his pro-negro proclivities, his over abundant political and social sympathies with the negro race in the South. In fine as the story goes. the President does not love the black man as intensely as he thought he did before he went to shoot the bear he never shot in "ole Missis- sippi, just over the fence dat surrounds heavens circumference"

President Roosevelt Says Time May Be Needed for Making the
 Solution Perfect.

and 1900 We have light to be proud of tnc memories of the last six years. But we must remember that each victory only opens the chance for a new strug- gle. -+.r . a.
 No nation has ever prospered as we are prospecting now, and we must see to 1t that by our own folly we do not mar this prosperity. Yet we must see to 1t also that wherever wrong ffourishes 1t De repressed. It is not the habit of our people to shirk issues, but squarely to race them. It is not the habit of our people to treat q good record in the past as any thing but a reason for expecting an even better record in the present; and no ad- ministration, gentlemen, should be judged save only on those lines.
 'The tremendous growth of our indus trialism has brought to the front many problems with which we must deal; ana trust that we shall deal with them along the same Hnes indicated in speech and in action by that profound jurist and up- right and fearless public servant who represents Pennsylvania in the Cabinet Attorney General Knox.
 '.The question of the so-called trust IS but one of the questions we must meet ir connection with our industrial sys- tenn. There are many of them and they are serious; but they can and will be met. Time may be needed for making the solution perfect; but it Is idle to tel this people that we have not the power to solve such problem as that Of exer- cising adequate supervision over the great industrial combinations or today. We have the power ard we shall ma out the law. We shall not act hastily or reck- lessly. but we have firmly made up our minds that solution, and rign. soiu, [, ton. shall be found. and found 1t Will De.

MAKING NO PROGRESS
DEATH OF MRS. GORE UNDER
 INVESTIGATION.
Consul General Gowdy's Inclines Against the Theory of an Acci-
 dent-The Woman's Char acter Above Reproach.

Paris, Nov. 22.-Police officials here ad- init that they are making no progress toward the solution of the mysterious strengthening the theory that the affair was one of accident rather than of de- sign. This view is so strong especially among the members of the Russian colony that De Rydzewski's advocate. Deputy Cruppi, today announced his intention of applying to the court on Monday for the provisional release of the accused.
 The authorities are likely to resist this motion as they are not yet ready to ac- cept the theory of accident. Consul Gen eral Gowdy also inclines against the &C., cldent theory, but the American officials will not take an active part in the prose- cution.
 M Cruppi's efforts are due to the in terest which the Russian friends of the accused have manifested in him. scores of them having called upon Judge Gan neval to testify to his good character.
 pr. Merlun who first arrived upon the scene after the tragedy has given out a statement which strengthens the advo- cates of the accident theory in their be- half He confirms the assertion made by pr. Socquot that the ball ranged up wards and concludes that the tragedy was the natural result of the weapon being discharged accidentally by a fall to the floor.
 On the other hand. one of the AmerI- can officials especially assigned to the case, says his personal inspection of Mrs. Cores body showed that the direction
 ,,Iw l. the surface of the earth. and that the point at which the ball emerged from the back of the head was hardly a half inch higher than the point at which it entered above the eye. This conflicts with the theory of the French physicians and tends to strengthen the murder theory.
 Letters and telegrams in the possession of the police show the circumstances of the meeting on the day of the tragedy and generates Mrs. Gore from the suspic- ions which might arise from her presence in De Rydzewskis room. One of the let ters shows that she wished to see De Rdyzewski. This letter he answered by telegraph, saying that he was suffering from a sore throat and that 1t was i'm possible for him to go out As a result of his inability to leave his room, Mrs. Gore went 10 him.
 Some of the officials contend that the visit was of a business nature. asserting that Mrs Cores remittances had not been received and that she went to her musical friend for temporary assistance. This theory is apparently borne out by the statement that check for $60 drawn to the order of Mrs. Gore, is said to have been found by the police in De Rydzew- skis desk. The existence of this check. however, has not been fully established, owing to the reticence of the police.

 Philadelphia, Nov. 22.-Some excitement was caused this afternoon just aiter President Roosevelt left the residence VI former Postmaster General smith TOT the reception of MT. Stotesbury.
 The carriage containing the President and Secretary Cortelyou had just star.eo' fienked on either side by squad or rnii- adeiphia City Troop.

HERR KRUPP EXPIRES
PHYSICIANS PRONOUNCE HIS MALADY APOPLExY.
A Portion of Public Has an Ides That the Great Armor Plate
 Manufacturer Took His Own Life.

Berlin. Nov. 22.-Herr Krupp. the great gun-makcr and the weaithiest man in Germany. died suddenly from apoplexy today at his villa in Huegel. Herr Krupp had been i'll for several days. and re- port of his condition was telegraphed daily to bis wife. who had been for sew eral monthg in Jena under medical treat mcnt. Concerned by the latest dispatch regarding her husband. Frau Krupp left Jena yesterday accompanied by Profess sor Pinswinter. She will reach Essen oarly Sunday morning.
 According to the medical reports his physicians succeeded in restoring Herr Krupp to consciousness but their patient soon reiapsed into insensibility. He died at o'clock.
 At about noon rumors were ip circula- ton in Essen that Herr Krupp was dying but the public had no accurate informa- ton regarding his condition until the great works which dominate the city and furnish employment to 43000 men were closed. ----.- N- The question that everybody asked was Did Herr Krupp commit suicideF Tnere seems 10 De no testiulOuy to SuP- port this suggestion, the physicians in attendance resolutely asserting that the case was simply one of apoplexy. That considerable time elapsed after the death before the news was announced Is taken by some persons to indicate that the cause of death is somewhat obscure. Near friends of the dead man who were aware of the great mental distress into which the recent publication in The Voer- waerts had thrown him--reproduced as 1t was in adjacent cities and telegraphed over the world-are confident that the charges contained in the story induced his death.
 Herr Krupp's villa, where he died. is several miles from Essen. The great gun maker lived there in almost feudal fashion and the place tonight is unap- proachable. nobody being admitted with in the gates except the police, the direc- tors of the Krupp works and the under takers and their assistants.
 Moderate estimates of the fortune of the deceased placed 1t at s125,000,o00 and his annual income during his recent years of prosperity at s1o.ooo,0oo.

 There were but two contests for posi- tion. Frank Duffy of the Carpenters, ran for Fifth Vice-Presijent against Thomas I. Kidd, of the Woodworkers, and was beaten nearly out of sight. John Cole man was given a good race for the dis tinction of Fraternal Delegate to Canada by Mack Taylor, but won on the second ballot.
 The convention was in almost continu- ous session from 9 o'clock m the morning until a late hour at night and many mat ters of routine but of no general interest were disposed of.
 The Committee on the Executive Coun- cil's Report declared against govern ment by injunction" but contained tho following sentence: We recognize the authority of the courts to issue injunc- tions to prevent the destruction of prop erty and violations of law
 This created a decided stir in the con vention. Delegates Furuseth, Agard and Duncan declared that the committee had declared in favor or the very thing against which in the early portion of it's report 1t had protested. Delegates Reese and Lewis, of the miners. both members of the committee making the report declared that all laboring men asked was that the injunction should not deprive them of their national rights and did not protest agains tthe injunc- tion as such.
 Delegate Lewis declared: "The trouble with the laboring men is that they pro- test against the law and do not explain why"
 He denied emphatically that he wished to favor government by injunction. ' but thought that widespread condemna- ton of the writ of injunction as such was unwise. The debate closed by the committee announcing that 1t would with draw the objectionable sentence from the report.
 The renort was then adopted.

WILL PUNISH CASTRO
ENGLAND AND GERMANY CON-
 TEMPLATE REPRISALS.
Joint Naval Maneuvers Will Not be Objectionable to the United States-President Castro Ap-
 pears Incorrigible.

London, Nov, n.-Great Britain Is con tempiating serious reprisais against vene- zuela. The Associated Press is also of- ficially informed that Great Britain is act ing with Germany in matters relating to the present state of affairs in Venezuela.
 Whether the contemplated action will take the form of joint naval demonstra- ton. accompanied by or following the severance of diplomatic relations is mat ter now being discussed in Berlin and London.
 There Is reason to believe that the British Government has been either of- ficially or otherwise informed that the demonstration having the object of prop erty rights of British citizens. The re. ports that Germany and Great Britain have been urging Minister Bowen at Caracas to join in the combination are discredited here. It Is pointed out that both Berlin and London have a thorough understanding with Washington regarding the main features of the policy involved which, 1t is maintained, in no way en- croaches upon the Monroe Doctrine.
 The Venezuelan protest against the &C., tion of the British sloop of war Fantome in entering the Orinoco River in spite of the blockade has now been received by the British foreign office. but 1t Is only one of many which have been coming In foi the past month. The foreign office views this and the others merely as an endeavor on the part of the Venezuelan authorities to offset the repeated strong dmands made by the British Minister at Caracas.
 A foreign office officials said to a rep- resentative of the Associated Press: we regard this latest publication as merely an endeavor to cover up the real Issues and blind the eyes of other nations to our frequent demands for an explanation of and reparation for the treatment of British subjects or their property. We have received absolutely no satisfaction. The Venezuelans appear absolutely hope less. We seq nothing for 1t but the most serious measures!'
 The presence of German squadron in the Caribbean Sea. it is said. to some ex- tent may be connected with possible joint action on the part of Great Britain and Germany.
