upper floors by the elevators and down
the stairway in fainting conditions.

CROPPED their way down the broad
stairways of the hotel, and clerks in
the office hastily procured the valua-
bles of the guests from the safes and
vaults and carried them to places of
greater safety. .....
The structure in which the fire orig
mated was a seven story brick affair
known as the O'Neill building. It
was an ancient and inflamable struc-
ture. There were a dozen or more
firms occupying it. Of which the larg-
est concern was l.. Bauman Jewelry

Germs will approximate $500, 900. The

knights TempIar and Board of Trade
Will Unite.

Louisville, KY. Jan. 2S.-Admiarl

the private car of President McDoel,
Of the Monon route, were met at
Salem, Ind, by a committee of escort
representing the board of trade and
the Knights Templar Of Louisville.
The trip from Chicago was one long
ovation and so vigorous were some
of the handclasps which the distin-
guished sailor received en- route that
his right hand was nearly "out of bus
ness" as the admiral explained.
On arrival here at 7:15 o'clock this
evening he was greeted with an ad-
miral's salute and a shouting crowd of
many hundreds at the depot. He was
escorted to his carriage by the full
committee representing his hosts and
driven to the residence of Marion E.
Taylor, president of the board Of
trade. Here the admiral and Mrs.
Schley spent a quiet evening. They
met only a few people as the commit
tee appreciated the likelihood that the
admiral and his wife would be fatigu-
ed upon their arrival.
The principal entertainment feat
ures on Wednesday will be a public
reception at the board at night, at
which the admiral will be the guest of
honor. Governor Beckham, Congress-
mar Catchings of Mississippi, and
other distinguished guests will be
present. Admiral Schley is expected
to make an address at the banquet.
Thursday morning the knights Tenn
plar will take charge of Admiral
Schley. The days entertainment will
include a carriage drive, lunch at the
Pendennis club, an entertainment at
the Masonic home with an address by
Admiral Schley. a visit to the indus
trial school of reform and in the ev-
ening a reception and ball at the Gait
house at which the Templars will be
in uniform.
