Irving WinsIOw Declares That the
Chairman of the Democratic Ma
tionnl Committee Says Next Fight
Will BE Upon This Issue.

BOSTON, Feb. 7.-AccordinS to Mr..
Irving Winslow, president of the New
England Anti i-Imperialistic League, who
has the authority of no less a person than
Senator Jones. chairman of the Demo-
cratic national committee, for saying 80,
the next paramount national issue of the
Democratic party will be anti-imperial-
ism.
Lines are now being laid by those in au-
thority for the carrying out of this plan,
and il the evidence collected by the COM
mittee On the Philippines, which is now
sitting at Washington, turns out to be
what the anti-imperialistic leaders anti
cipate, antiimperialisri will be the Demo-
cratic slogan. and the coming Presidcn-
tial campaign will be fought out ON that
issue.
1t is the intention of the Democratic
leaders. according to Mr.. Winslow, to
cut the party loose from all entangling
alliances with the issues and ideas which,
under the leadership OF Mr.. Bryan, have
resulted in disunion and failure during
the last two campaigns.
Anti-imperialism, they say, is the only
issue on which the Democrats are united

that seemed a hopeless task. and with

ed the destruction Of hundreds Of thou
sands of dollars worth of property in the

the Gremcn rot the flames under control
The loss is placed at S2j0, 900.
After the fire was discovered, the San
ford Building being mass Of flames,
and there being no hope of saving il, the
energies OF the firemen were turned 10
adjacent property.
In the Trude were hundreds of men
and women. and when the flames were
communicated TO it, there was a Panic,
several of the women fainting.
Terrific explosions OF paint and oil serv-
ed to helghten the fear of the entire
ncighborhood and almost every building
in the block was deserted.
A panic prevailed in the Marshall
Field building when the fremen ran from
floor TO floor, giving the warning, but no
one was hurt.
The floors of the Sanford building col
lapsed shortly after 10 o'clock, practically
smothering the fire, but the danger OF
further explosions was ever present.
The fires in the Hendel and Trude build
ings were extinguished soon afterward
after loss of 100000.
While this fire was raging another fire
was discovered in Michigan Avenue, in the
Gage millinery store. The loss here was
$4,000.
The men were badly handicapped by
frozen plugs and lack of coal. Several of
the firemen while directing hose were
frozen fast to the street and had TO be
chopped out.

ing of the Northwest Suburban Citi-
zens' Association in Tenleytown last
night, when taxation WAS the chief
subject considered. Mr.. Lancaster in
trcdGced and supported in a strong
speech resolutions declaring for a per-
sonal tax law. Prof. Hooper opposed
such law on the ground that it
would bc Intellectual. but the reso-
lutioEs were finally unanimously
adopted. In the course of the debate
Congress Vas scored for it's failure to
keep its contract with the District,
entered into IN 1873. according to
which the Government was 20 bear

A special resolution thanking The

to RInclSyvcll's IsIani.

NEW YORK. Feb. &c. Arthur HILL
whom President Roosevelt pardoned a
few weeks ago from the Washington peni-
tentiary. was sent to the penitentiary on
BlackweIl's Island for six months today
by Judge Foster in General Sessions, ar
ter he had pleaded guilty to stealing a
trunk in this city in 1909.
Hill was pardoncd By President Rocse-
welt because he said he was dying of con-
,tion. He is twenty-seveE years old
He asked mercy cf Judge Foster for the
same reason. He needed to be out in the
air, and said that he was dying on his
ieeC and could not last long.
Judge Foster said he imposed the SEN
tence because it would give Hill a place
TO lodge until warm weather.
Capt. James Parker. counsel for Rear
Admiral Schley, interceded for Hill. The
Salvation Army was also interested. but
no one cared sufficiently to promise to
provide home for him.

not perch upon its banner in 1904.
Senator Jones is taking time by the

for the establishment of a bureau OF in

gone a long way to meet the wishes Of
agriculture, and agreed that the corn
duties provided for in the tariff bill had
been marked at the highest limit that
could be conceded unless other interests
were made to suffer and commercial treat
les were affected.
Moreover. 1t was doubtful IL an increase
in the duties beyond the bills limit would
benefit agriculture. 1t might provoke
reaction. The Chancellor concluded by
appealing to the Agrarians not to wreck
the bill by excessive demands. and said:

irving here on the early morning trains
from Quantico, over the Washington
Southern Railway. report that the sloop
Al5atross, with Capt. Chris Faunce in
command. is at Chicamuxen, near Guam
tico. Ii was reported here several days
ago that it was more than probable that
Captain Faunce and his vessel were lost
in the ice off Freestone Point on Sunday
last. From all accounts Captain Faunce
had a narrow escape, as his vessel was
carried out for some distance from that
place. and efforts of people nearby 10
rescue him proved futile. Mrs. FauECe,
wife of the captain. when seen in Wash
ington, her home, placed no c:edence in
the report that her husband had been
lost, and was not in the least alarmed.
Captain Farnce is an experienced river
man and, as his wife stated. is fully
capable of taking care of himself. Cap
tain Faunce will probably return TO
