SMALL BLAZE AT REEL FACTORY:

The new Gre department made IT'S first
run at II o'clock Tuesday and showed
itself equal to the occasion. At that
hour the alarm was turned in and the
department summoned TO the factory of
the Star, Rig and Reed company, located
just east of the old railroad depot at
the East End. The department covered
the distance in just eight minutes and
would have made still better time II 1t
had not been detained by n street car.
Those in charge were Chief Steel, John
Moiispangh and Edward Clark. The FIRE
was practically ont when the department
arrived on the scene. Some shavings
around the boiler had caught afire md
they burned. This was the only dam
age.

INVESTIGATING CASE,
Police InQuirln8 Into Death of New
York Machintst-ThouEht to
Have Been Murdered.

New York, Aug 26.-Surrounding the
death Of John ]. Denny, an expert ma
chin1st, conspicuously identified with a
warfare waged between labor unions,
are circumstances SO suspicious that
the police have been called upon to in
vestigate.
1t is the assertion OF the mans widow
that he was murdered because of his
labor differences, and that men opposed
to him In organizations killed him or
instisated his death. This belief of foul
play is shared by Denny's friends and
shop companions.
Denny's body was found near Erie
Basin Sunday. His head was in shallow
water, but one leg was entirely dry.
His face was badly battered, and other
bruises were on his body. His money
and watch we're undisturbed. The Wild
ow has told the police that her hus,
band frequently had been threatened by
men opposed to the Knights Of Labor
with which he was affiliated. A watch.
man at the dock says he saw Denny
and another man walk out on tho piel
early Sunday morning and declares that
neither man came back. So far the po-
lice have found no corroborat1on Of the
watchman's statement as to any person
accompanying Denny, but say he start
ed home alone about midnight, q few
hours before his death.

HAS RUSSIA'S SUPPORT.
Car Favorable to Zionist Movement
to Establish Independent State
in Palestine.

Basel, Switzerland, Aug 26.-At Tues
days session of the Zionist congress DR..
HerZl, the president, submitted to the
delegates a letter which he had received
from the Russian minister of the in
terror, Won Plehwe, apparently pledg-
ing the support of the Russian govern
ment to the Zionists in their movement
to establish an Independent state in
Palestine. The minister, in the letter
referred to, said his government was
quite favorable to the original pro-
gramme Of Zionism, which can rely Oh
its moral and material support when its
practical measures tend to decrease the
Jewish population of Russia. Such sup
port might take the form of supporting
the Zionist demands on the Ottoman
government, and helping the Jewish
emigration societies by cooperating with
the Jews who are contributing to the
necessities of these societies. The Rus
sian government, the minister adds, has
been obliged to act towards the Jewish
question as the interests Of the state re,
quire, but it has never deviated from the
great principles Of morality and human
ity. 1t had recently enlarged the rights
of residence in the Jewish region and he
hoped nothing would prevent the devel-
opment Of such measures tending to i'm
prove the conditions of the existence Of
the Russian Jews, especially if emigra.
ton decreased their number.

Macedonian Fugitives Preparing to
Send DeputatiOn to Gar of Russia
to Beg for Intervention.

Sofia, Bulgaria; Aug. ga revolu-
tionary band has appeared at the village
of Tcherkeskoi, between Adrianople and
Constantinople, within six hours of the
sultan's capital. The insurgents and
Turks fought, and afterwards the Cir
cassian inhabitants of the village pill
aged and destroyed three Bulgarian viii
lagos in the neighborhood, killing all
the men, women and children except a
few who escaped to the mountains.
The Macedonian fugitives in Bulgaria
are preparing to send a deputation to
st. Petersburg to inform the car of the
plt1able condition of Macedonia and to
beg for his Intervention. The Bulgarian
archbishop of Varna has promised to
head the deputation, which is now await
ing the permission of the holy synod to
enter Russia, such permission being nee
essary when foreign prelate desires to
visit the Russian empire.
There is no truth in the report circu-
lated by the Berlin correspondent of the
Morning Post, of London, that deputa-
ton left Sofia last Friday to visit Prince
Ferdinand of Bulgaria, who is in Hun
gary, to invite him to publicly declare
his Macedonian policy, that the prince
would be allowed ten days to reply, and
that in the event of his declining the
deputation bore mandate from the
Bulgarian people to depose him.

Elihu Root. Secretary of War, Washing
ton, D. C.-My Dear Mr.. Root: 1t Is
hard. indeed, for me to accept your
resignation and do so not only with
keen personal regret, but with a lively
understanding of the gap your with
drawal will create in public life. MY
sense of personal loss is very great; and

you made In order that the army might
be put on an effective basis, you cannot
but be pleased at the way in which those
recommendations have now been adopt
ed by congress as we'll as by the admin
istration, and have become enacted into
law or crystallized into custom. We
have never had public servant of the
government who has worked harder
than you have worked during these four
years and half, and this not merely in
point of time, but above all in point of
Intensity, and your success has been
equal to your labor. The only reward
you have had, or can have, is the knowl-
edge OF successful achievement, of the
performance in fullest fashion of great
public duty, the doing of which was of
vital Importance to the nations welfare.
Your duties have included more than
merely the administration of the Depart
ment, and the reorganization of the
army on an effective basis. You have
also been the head of department which
dealt with the vast and delicate problems
involved In our possession of the Philip
pine islands, and your success in DEAL
Ing with this part of your work has
been as signal as your success in DEAL
ing with the purely military problems.
To very few statesmen indeed in any
country Is it given at the one and the
same time to achieve signal and striking
tr1umphs In the administration and re-
form of the military branch of the gov
eminent and in the administration OF
what was in effect department of in
sular dependencies, where the problems
were new to our people, and were in
themselves Of great difficulty.
Moreover, aside from your work in
these two divisions Of the government
service, I appreciate most keenly the
invaluable advice and assistance you
have rendered me in innumerable mat
ters OF weight not coming directly in
your departmental province, but in
which sought your aid with the GER
tainty OF not being disappointed. Your
position on the Alaskan boundary com.
mission at the present moment is an
illustration Of these services.
MAY all good fortune attend you
wherever you are; the American people
wish you we'll and appreciate to the full
the debt due you for all that you have
done on their behalf. Faithfully yours.

until daylight, when the battleships
came up the channel, Portland was treat
ed to an experience very much like actual
war; Where the victory, If any, is is
not apparent to shore observers.
The night was a sleepless one not only
for all actually engaged in the maneu-
vers, but for many in the city. 1t was
scarcely midnight when the searchlights
of the forts disclosed two torpedo boat
destroyers in the outer harbor. Firing
began at once and then ceased. An hour
later the presence of battleship was
revealed by the searchlights and several
of the forts opened fire upon her. This
vessel returned the fire, and after that
the cannonading became general. A
cutter and launch containing landing
parties were captured, and at 2:25 a. m.
all the outer forts were engaged with
the three big vessels, which afterward
were recognized as the Kearsarge, ILL.,
nois. and Alabama.
While two torpedo boat destroyers and
other small craft had been detailed to
the duty of threatening the various pas
sages of the harbor, the movement
against the main channel had been re-
served for the little ships. For more
than an hour the big vessels stood OF
the main entrance to the harbor. At
four o'clock they began the advance.
With the Kearsarge leading and the ILL.,
nois and Alabama close behind, each
belching broadsides at the forts, they
sailed slowly towards the city. Forts

going on, was all that could be heard.
