FIRE IN ASSAY OFFICE
Damage Done is Nominal and Assays
VIII Not be Interrupted.

New York, January 31.-F'ire broke
out today insa labatory on the second
floor of the United States assay office
which is next door to the Sub-treasury
and destroyed a portion Of the roof and
upper story and some apparatus. Chief
Assayer Torrey said the loss on the ap-
paratus probably would not exceed ST.
OOC, and that the loss on the building
would De nominal He thought the
business of the assay office which
amounted to about IS assays day
would not be interrupted longer than
three or four days. Mr.. Torrey believ-
ed that nitric acid which is used in
testing bullion. was the cause of the
fire. He said it might have eaten into
the wooden flue which leads from the
glass basins when the gold and silver
bars are melted and subjected TO chem
iCal action. The iames which were
first seen III one OF these tiCes, soon got
beyond control. An alarm was turned
in and the siXty-fiVe government en-
plCyecS in the building haStened 10 save
the millions OF treasure in their care.
There was about s40,0OO,0O0 in bullion
in the vaults, and about 81. 500 900 lying
outside in various parts of the building.
The $1,500,000 and about 100000 in a
melted state, as we'll as the books and
account and record, were hastily lock-
ed in the vaults. Then the employees
hurried out of the building for their
own safety.

CRISIS VERY NEAR AT HAND
The Allies Will Probably Insist on De-
mand for Preferential Treatment
OTHER POWERS WILL PROTEST THIS

edly have suffered, but they claim $40
for the loss of chicken and 500 for
the theft of donkey. 1t can be seen
why Italy does not wish to have her
claims discussed by a tribunal and
prefers force to reason"
There was much exc; tement among
the foreigners here when it was report
ed that the allies proposed special
treatment to secure the payment of
thoir claims. Americans Frenchmen
and Spaniards met and prote sted
against the carrying out of such an
idea and cable messages were address,
ed to the government Of the United
States France and Spain asking for
protection of their several rights and
that the claims of the petitioners be
accorded treatment similar to that
given British. German end Italian
claims.
Explanation from Berlin.
Berlin, January 31.-The apparent
hitch in the Venezuelan negotiations at
Washington is explained here in the
following manner:
Venezuela hypOthecated to France
sometime ago thirteen per cent. of the
customs receipts. which constitutes a
priority claim upon the Venezuelan
customs. The blockading powers are
quite willing to recognize it in this
sense, but President Castro wants it
to be understood as constituting part
of the thirty per cent. offered to the
bloCkading powers. AS the latter
would then have only seventeen per
cent. left they regard it as inadequate
and hence are not willing to permit the
inclusion of Frances percentage. 1t is
believed here that the blockade will not
be raised until President Castro yields
on this point.
What Mr.. Bowen Says.
Washington, January 31.-Minister
Bowen. when shown the Associated
Press dispatch regarding the explana-
ton given in Berlin of the apparent
hitch in the Venezuelan negotiations
said:
All settled foreign claims are COW
cred by the thirteen per cent arrange
ment. The thirty per cent. proposition
now offered refers exclusively to un-
settled claims which not only the
blOckading powers but the peaceful
powers are pressing for settlement. 1t
IS absolutely false that the thirteen
per cent. arrangement is included in
the thirty per cent. proposition. 1t is
entirely distinct.
There has been so much conference,
discussion and misunderstanding in re-
gard to this question of percentage
that am willing to make this state
ment.''
German Cruiser nt Marncibo.
Caracas, January 31.-News has
reached here that a German warShip
supposed to be the cruiser Fake. was
seen this morning near the bar at Mar
acaibO. She was taking advantage of
the fine weather and was actively en-
gagged in making soundings. She had
landed men in her small boats.

Washington, January S1-The an
nual dinner of the Gridiron Club to-
night was another record-breaker in
the way of unique entertainments, and
the Washington correspondents who
compose the Famous organization again
demonstrated that everything under
the gun Cor on the gridiron) was new;
that there was a humorous side to all
current events; and that toasts and
roasts may be combined for an eve
ning's entertainment.
The dining hall Of the Arlington
Hotel was never so handsomely deco
rated, for besides the flowers upon the
table and the palms and ferns about
the room, novel arrangement Of elec-
trio lights produced a superb effect
among the decorations.
Among the two hundred guests and
members were ambassadors, senator's
and representatives, governors, high
officers of the army and navy, promf-
nent men in the financial and business
world, editors and prnprietors Of great
newspapers and scientists and men OF
letters.
Inc menu was calendar, eacn
month illustrated with the picture Of
a prominent guest, whose business or
personal characteristic was indicated
in a jingling rhyme
The fnaugura ton of the new presf-
dent OF the club Mr.. William E. Cur
tbs. afforded an opportunity for revert
ing to the part of Mr.. Curtis in secur-
ing the attendance of Spanish grandees
for the worlds fair at Chicago. The
81
court of 1892 mingled with goth CEN
tury ideas and events made 1t a snowy
and laugha BILE affair. One of the ques-
t1ons propounced to Columbus was
What is a Trust?" To which he an
swered: "A bunch OF money surround
ed by water"
Mr.. ]. Pierpont Morgan, one of the
guests of the club, was made the sub
ject OF quite the best burlesque of the
evening. For the alleged benefit OF
the New York f1nanciers the Gridiron
Club installed a bucket shop" as an
adjunct to Mr.. Morgan's office. The
manager and chair warmers" kept up
a lively fire of questions and answers.
while various guests were placed upon
the Sridiron. The discussion of avail
able presidential candidates was a fea-
ture of this part Of the entertain
ment. The burlesque concluded with a
song dedicated to Mr. Morgan
Inc experiments which DR.. Wiley of
the agricultural department is making
with borax as preservative, afforded
another vehicle to give a number OF
prominent guests a gridironine. 1t was
charged that DR.. Wiley was conduct
ing an experiment at The dinner and
Two members Of the club, personatine
Dr. Wiley and his assistant. showed
the effect Of borax on the brain. A
poison squad" was brought out and
the stethesiscope and X rays applied
TO their heads. The marvellous things
they were found to be thinking about
as told by the operaors, created great
amusement
The initiating of Mr. Joseph E. Ohl
OF the Atlanta Constitution, and Mr..
John P. Miller, Of the Baltimore Sun
VINO were caused to personate leaders
OF the Lily Whites" and Blacks and
Ians' respectively, and the witty re-
terences to recent southern appoint
ments made a distinct hit.
There were other skits, many topical
songs and choruses and several good
speeches, all crowding the evening
with wit and humor from the begin
ming to end.
