known coloring matter fiuorescin
which he injects into the body. If
person is really dead, the fuorescin
has no effect whatever, but if there is
any life yet remaining the body quick
ly becomes yellow and the eyes green
ish in color. These symptoms will re-
main for one or possibly two hours and
then disappear. Many persons declare
that the existence of life can be discov-

not always possible to have an y ray

which the Doukhobors had spent the
night, at the same time calling upon
the policemen to bring the rest.
AS they came out the fanatics locked
themselves together, each man clinging

the Authorities.

Manila, Nov. 10.-The government is
adopting vigorous measures to suppress
Ladronism in the provinces of Cavite,
Rial and Bulacan. A zone embracing
IL Sc provinces, and surrounding Ma
mia, is the scene of constant petty and,
sometimes, serious disorders. Several
armed bands, some of them numbering
200 or 300 men, are operating in the
described districts, and have commit
ted various depredations. They find a
safe refuge in the mountains. The
plan of the government contemplates
securing the assistance of the military,
which has been inactive since the end
of the instruction. The extent Of the
army's participation in the work OF
suppression depends upon develop
ments. 1t is probable that the mill
tary authorities will request the garri-
sons to protect the more important
towns, while the constabulary conduct
the field operations 1t is thought thai
martial law in a modified form will
be declared, and the privilege of the
writ of habeas corpus suspended il

New York, Nov. 12.-An explosion OF
Illuminating gas in the cellar Of the
seven-story tenement, on Avenue G,
Yesterday afternoon, wrecked a store
on the ground floor and injured SO per-
sons, several being severely hurt.
Among the injured were IA iremen and
one policeman. The explosion followed
a slight fire caused, it is said by a
plumber who was working in the cellar.
When the firemen, led by CHIEF
Guerin, entered the cellar it was found
to be charged with gas from a melted
lead connection, and a moment later
an explosion occurred, enveioping the
men in flames and blowing out the
front of the store overhead. A shower
of debris was hurled into the crowd
watching the fire and many were
struck with fragments of glass anC
splintered wood. About 20 persons were
taken to the hospital. The firemen who
were in the cellar succeeded in making

100000 last night by a fire that for
four hours ragged 355 feet in the air,

Owing to the enormous height of the
tower it was impossible to reach the

of blazing lumber fell with a mighty
splash and hiss into the stream. The
fall of the foot bridge carried away

which trailed in the water, rendering il
necessary for the police to stop al
traffic up and down the river. The Fal

running the gauntlet of fiery brands
that fell in showers from the burning
bridge. The fire was the most spec
