All through the night the Board Walk

was patrolled by the Morris Guards, the

stated that after a careful investigation
the authorities were Of tho opinion that

from the explosion of a gasoline stove, OF
an overheated kitchen range, they were
unable to say. There is also a theory
that crossed electric wires started the

Incoming trains to-day brought throngs
Of visitors who spent most of the time
around the scene of the fire. The crowd
became so great during the day that r.
was decided to continue the militia on
police duty until tonight. Chief OF Po-

plants Of lost baggage, and the police are
kept busy cn6eavoring to trace the miss

The insurance underwriters maintain
that their estimate Of the loss made last
night is correct, but the victims assert
that this estimate refers merely to the
realty loss. Many OF them claim to
carry no insurance and those that are
insured say the damage to personal prop
erty and stock will greatly increase the
total loss.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April fit is
learned that the Russian Government has
not asked the assent of the United States
Government to the convention it has just
concluded with China, regarding Man
churia, but the United ~9tates Govern

to certain features Of the original, and
as those do not appear in the published
outline of the treaty provisions, it can
be stated that our Government will not
interpose any objection to the existing
document, even if its consent We're neces-

The provision pledging Russia to evac-
uate Niu Chwang Immediately the Pow

the test piece of the agreement and is
calculated to hasten the Powers In their
