What might have been disastrous
fire was narrowly averted last Sunday
at the Deschamp home by the prompt
arrival Of parties with fire ex tinguish-
ers. The fire originated through
defective stove pipe running through
the house and the flames caught in
the roof, making fierce blaze which
was seen by neighbors who rushed in
and extinguish the flames.

PHILADBLPHIA'S GREAT
City HALL ON FIRE
Flames Confined to the Mas
SiVe Tower.
CITY OFFICIALS NOT SCARED

PHILADELPHIA, March 7.-Philadel-
phia's $25.G0o,00o City Hall is on fire.
The flames are confined 10 the tower
and owing 10 the -conbustible mate
rials used in construction little damage
is excected.
The City Hall was begun in 1872 and
is stiH unfinished, much building mate
rial being stored in the tower and the cor
ridors Of the upper floors.
Several similar fires have occurred in
the rast. but have been extinggished with
out loss other than 10 the contractors
whose materials were damaged
Little excitement was occasioned to the
municipal officials in the great building
The smoke issuing from the tower caused
them no concern, as they knew OF the
practical impossibility Of any damage to
the Greproof construction. Passers- by.
however, stood almost in awe as they
e0njured up visions OF a falling tower.
The statue Of William Penn on the top
OF the tower is one of the most massive
pieces of bronze IN this country. Its size
can be judged from the fact that the nose
OF Penn is a foot long and his arms some
thing like a dozen feet long. PUBLISHED
erectric lights are hung around the brim
OF his hat

Liability Of Company's Directors Under
Consideration on PAYMENT Of

There was a gathering OF persons inter
ested in the affairs Of the KretoI Com
pauy al the Bond building this morning
and it is believed that before the close Of
the day an agreement viii have been
reached to have a receiver for the com
pany Immediately appointed. Several
large stockholders are gradually favoring
the views Of Ms 5or- -Armes concerning the
situation and believe that it is advisable
TO avoid the delay that would be oc-
casioned by awaiting the regular course
Of q reply TO the present suit.
Major Armes is anxious for the immcdi-
ate appointment Of a receiver 10 take
charge Of the company until its affairs
can be straiehteaed out. the sale Of the
product being pushed in the meantime.
The question Of the liability Of the di-
rectors Of the company is beginning TO
receive the attention OF some o. the stock
holders Of the corporation Under the
laws Of the State Of Virginia. IL Is stat
I'd. directors who authorize the payment
Of dividends from other than the sur
plus profits Of the company are liable to
the stockholders both collectively and in
dividIallv-
There seems 10 De some question as 20
whether the dividend was ever formally
declared, hut fl is stated That at all events
the directors were aware Of the circum-
stances and that they at least acquiesced
.n the matter and axe thus rendered
liable.

Mss Alice Roosevelt viii not attend
the coronation Of King Edward VII in
June.
While this statement is not made at the
White House. IL is generally admitted
that a report to this effect is true. The
cancellation Of Miss RooseveIt's plans TO
participate in the great function at the
British capital is said to be the result
Of the adverse criticism which has come
to the Presidents ears from all parts OF
the country upon the unofficial announce
ment that his daughter would lend her
presence 10 the coronation festival
Held to Be Inconsistent.
A large proportion Of the people Of the
United States did not hesitate 10 express
their disapprovaI Of the daughter Of the
President Of the American Republic. By
her attendance upon the coronation Of a
king, giving sanction to such form OF
government
The report that Miss Roosevelt viii not
be present in London during the ceIebra-
tion was quite general at the White House
this morning. as weI as in exclusive So
cial circles Of the National Capital. and
while it met with no confirmation from
anyone authorized 70 speak for the Prezi-
dent, st was quite generally admitted.
No Official Announcement.
1t was said in explanation Of the situa-
tion that IL had never been omeiaIIy an
rrrsuaaH aI-s Nj u-------r-
tend the coronation, and that no Official
explanation was necessary either in the
event OF her remaining At home or At
tending the event.
significant fact in connection with
the report is the announcement made two
days ago that Miss Roosevelt VIII in a
few days leave for Havana. where for n
month, she viii be the guest OF Governor
General and Mrs Wood The Cuban trip
VIII last until about the middle Of April.
No Tine to Prepare for Tup.
This would mean that Miss Roosevelt.
could not possibly return 10 Washington
in time TO complete all arrangements Tor
the coronation.
1t is stated BY those IN a position to
know. from their intimate association
with Miss Roosevelt, that up 10 the pres
ant time she has had no gowns made
which she would wear during the function
incident to the coronation. II is also
claimed to be impossible for her to have
them made in the brief time which would
sIaPse from the date Of her return from
Cuba and the departure with the party

ton Of King Edward.
