The important part played by the la
boring vote in many sections of the
country in the election just over has
not failed to impress itself upon the
minds of students of politics here. The
labor vote in many places, indicated
strongly that organized labor is begin

In at least three sections Of the coun-
try did the labor vote, cast almost as

many other places it welded an indirect
influence that amounted to a great deal

last summer and the results growing
out of 1t caused the election of d Demo-
cratic mmbr of Congress and Demo-
cratic governor and lieutenant governor
in Rhode Island. The Republicans were
greatly surprised that there should be
a change in their representation in con-
gress from Rhode Island. The Demo-
cratic congressional committee had
made no pretense to claiming a district
in Rhode Island. and not even the most
rosy Democratic prophets attempted 10

BURGLAR IN HER ROOM.
Guest at Marion Hotel Robbed After
Being Dragged.

Marion, Ind. Feb 1s.-Mrs. Maggie
Barnsline, guest of the Brunswick
hotel was awakened at 2 o'clock this
morning by a burglar who had entered
her room, placed a peculiar drug on her
nose and then cut open one of her
stockings which she wore and removed
a roll of bank bills. Mrs. Barnsline
awoke while the money was being ex-
tracted The room was dark, but she
saw the form of a man leaving the
room. She shouted for help and when
the guests and proprietor came to her
assistance they found her bleeding pro-
fusely from the punctures made on the
nose by the instrument, which looks
like a large bug having six legs, which
are hollow and as sharp as needles. The
body of the bug-like arrangement is
filled with some powerful drug, which
is sent through the system to cause
sleep.
Mrs Barnsline's husband is a travel
ing man. He left the room at II o'clock
to take a train and Mrs. Barnsline
neglected to lock her room door after
he departed. Mrs. Barnsline is in a state
of nervous collapse on account of the
shock and powerful drug administered.

FIRE AT TREADWELL.
A Number of Buildings at the
Great Mine Destroyed.

Seattle, Wn., Feb. 19.-The great
Treadwell mines on Douglass island
were assailed by fire on Tuesday. Feb
ruary H. and a great loss of life was
prevented by the almost superhuman
attempts of everybody who could reach
the scene to stay the progress of the
flames The steamer Dirigo brought
particulars of the fire.
The Alaska-American compressor
building was entirely destroyed. Thirty
eight thousand dollars worth of stamps
and mill plates and a 120 stamp mill
with the engine room, were saved. For
hours the people worked under fearful
suspense, for more than 100 miners were
in the lower workings and in imminent
danger of meeting a horrible death. The
origin of the fire was not known at last
reports.
The first known of the fire was
when H. G. Hall, superintendent of the
Mexican compressor, discovered flames
issuing from one corner of the huSe
structure. The flames gained Roadway
rapidly and before apparatus in the
compressor room could be brought in to
service the entire interior of the build
ing was a mass of flames. From the
compressor the fire spread to the hoist
and tramway and before warning could
be sent TO the men down in the mines.
the shaft house was on fire and the low
er end of the 120 stamp mill was burning
fiercely.
The firemen confined their efforts to
the mill adjacent to the compressor
building and though their clothing fire.
quenOy caught fire and their hands and
faces were badly blistered, they finally
got the fire under control after several
buildings had been destroyed.
In the meantime the flames in the
main shaft had been burning rapidly
and Swans Barquist, one of the miners
working on the 200 foot level was the
first to gain knowledge of the fire above.
He cried out warning to the miners
on the 440 foot level. After some DELAY
an old gallery communicating between
the new and the old workings was dis
covered and after a hard struggle in the
smoky gas-laden levels, the men reach
ed the bottom of the old pit in safety.
In the meantime with the help of adj
ditional apparatus from Douglass, the
fire had been confined to the compressor
building. shaft, shaft house and a near
by mill building. These were destroyed
When the Dirigo left for the south it
was not certain that all the men in the
mine had escaped, but the mine officials
believe they did.
