MAY RECEIVE THE INCREASE.
Sentiment of ST. Paul Lines Said to
Favor Request.

st. Paul, Mimi, Dec. 22.-Contrary to first
reports the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific railroads are among the roads that
have been asked to grant increased wages
to their trainmen, the demands of the men
having been served upon the officials of the
companies last Saturday. 1t is understood
here that all of the roads that have been
asked to make increases will act Jointly on
the request and that their answer will be
identical.
A meeting of the officials of the roads in
this vicinity will be held in St. Paul some
time this weak to consider local conditions.
The sentiment among the managers of the
roads is that the 10000 trainmen employed
on lines tributary to st. Paul probably will
receive the increase asked for.

INSANE ASYLUM FIRE.

One of the buildings of the Eastern
Hospital for the Insane, at Williams
burg. known ss the Tower House,
burned on Saturday. 1t was occupied
by $50 patients OF the most violent
class. Although they became much ex-
cited, they were dressed by the atteu-
dants and hurried out OF the building.
For q time some OF them became scat
tered, but 1t was found that ell but two
we're saved. One patient is dead and
another Is missing.
Henry Driscoll, farmer OF Prince
Edward county, was emothered to
death. He had been an inmate FIVE
years. The finding of his body at five
O'Clock was great surprise. He was
brought out OF the building with the
other patients, but 10 some way unob.
served got back 10 the building sgsin.
His clothes we're somewhat burned,
but his body was only slightly scorched.
J. B. Dunnavsnt, Of Chesterfield, the
missing man, Is harmless and will 90
doubt make his way to his home unless
recaptured sooner.
That only one life was lost and only
one patient escaped seems miraculous
under the circumstances. The GOODNESS
and bravery OF the guards and nurses
were remarkable, aud with $50 excited
and rsviDg manjacs to control they re.
moved them to places of safety while
the widest confusion OF excited citiz IN
and volunteer fi.emen went on around
them.
The fire was first discovered about
daylight bursting from the roof of the
four story building, Inadequate fire
fighting facilities and the intense cold
made 1t difficult to cope with the flames.
The efforts OF the firemen and oitizeDs
retarded but did not stop the work OF
the flames, and tbs building was de-
stroyed. The fire is supposed TO have
been caused by defective electric wiring,
The buI digs OF this institution we're
all burned 10 1882 except the Tower
House, which was built perhaps 30
years ago. IL was insured for 500. 600
The loss ia estims ted at $40, 600. The
patients were Accommodated in the re-
naming buildings.
