There Was Another JOhns- town Horror Yesterday
TWENTY EIGHT BURNED
An Early Morning Fire in a Lodging HOuse-An Indescribable Scene as the hen Fought With Each Other For An Outlet From the Flames.

Johnstown, Pa. Nov. 2L-Twenty- eight bodies, charrcd and blackened beyond all possibility of Identification lie tonight in the ruins of what was once an Italian lodging shanty. located on the line of the Pennsylvania railroad twenty miles east of this city and three -fourths of q mile west of Lilly. In addition to the list of dead there are ed to hospitals and several of this num- ber cannot recover.
 The fire started early this morning, while the men were still in bed. The men who escaped from the shanty alive are very reticcnt about the matter re- fusirg to give any information as to the origin of the blaze. According to the story of one man. who escaped, the fire started from an over-heated stove. The stove became red hot. it is said. and the interior of the shanty which was lined with indammable tar paper. caught fire.
 The Shantv was ninety-three feet lOnE and about twenty-four feet wide. It was occupied by siXty-tive mostly Ital- iaus. employed on the Pennsylvania railroad improvements between Lilly md Portage.

TIE WRECK OF A MINE
Two Men Killed in an Intended Ex-
 plosion Yesterday.

Cripple Creek. Colo. Nov. 2t.- Charles Mccormack, superintendent rnd Melvin H. Beck, miner. were killed T noon today by an explosion in the sixth level of the Vindicator mine.
 The men were going down in a cage and were the only passengers. They veached the sixth level when the expio- sion occurred killing both instantly, and wrecking the shaft. The bodies weer returned through another shatt this afternoon.
 After an examination the officers of the Vindicator Mining company an nornced that the explosion was the re suit of a plot to blow up the mine It appears that dynamite was placed in the sixth level near the shaft A load ed revolver was fixed in the shaft pointing toward the explosive. 4 string was attached to the trigger and stretched across the shaft so that when the cage descended the pistol was dis charged the bullet striking the dyna+ mite exploding 1t. The Vindicator property was being worked by non- union miners and was under military guard. Major Naylor and fifty men ai nrce took possession of the property.

 At this time the fire was in the up- per end of the sh2nty and a struggling mass of men were fighting to escape from the building.
 Awakened suddenly and confused by the sudden alarm. the occupants of the Shanty were unable to control them selves. Some of the men escaped but a few remained asleep in the hunks. All at once the foreigners on the out side remembered that they had left their trunks in the blazing building. Then followed rush of men into the building through the lower door of the building. The majority of those who entered never again saw the outside world.
 Those who strove for the door were In the widest sort of panic. When one man got ahead of another the other pulled him back. They fought. bit and kicked and among those who escaped there are many who bear marks of the fierce struggle.

STILL NEGOTIATING
Only a Hope of Settlement
 of the Chicago Strike
The Strikers Have Abandoned All Their Demands hut One and Have Conceded Part of That.

Chicago, Nov. 21.-The street car strike has settled down for the time being at least to bargaining proposi- tion. Negotiations have been in pro- gross all day and will continue all through tomorrow.
 The company has presented an an swer to the last proposition of the men that makes some concessions in the matter of routing cars. but does not go anywhere near what the men have been demanding.
 The last conference of the day terminated at o'lOck and the union officials left the room evidently not il, the best of humor.
 They went to the office of Attorney Prentiss, one of their advisers, to for mulatc a reply to the answer of the company.
 This will be submitted tomorrow and the company will make another reply.
 The conference this afternoon was at times somewhat heated and the voices could be heard in the outer hal as they argured the propositions in- volved.
 When President Mahon of the street car mems committee came out of the meeting he would make no statement and Col. Bliss, attorney of the company would only say:
 We have been discussing how to run q street railway"
 Attorney Prentiss said after he had reached his office and was about to lock himself in with the officials of the union: There is no im- ~f hope that we can reach an agree ment. but nothing has been accom- plished yet"
 The present hitch in the negotiations is understood to be over the routinG of the cars, the men having waived their demand for the exclusive employ ment of union men and their right to pass with authority upon the dis charge of employees. On the question of wages. there has never been any trouble both sides having been willing from thc first to submit that question to arbitration.
 A great mass meeting Of the union men is to be held tomorrow to discuss the strike.
 The associated teaming interests of the city, which organization counts
  large business houses and mahufactur- ing concerns that operate teams, has served notice upon the teamsters union that unless the tcamsters return to their work with the Chicago CitY Railway company, agreements held with the ioCal teamsters union will be abrogated.
 The teamsters will hold a meeting tomorrow to decide on plan of action A riot in which several thousand men. women and children took part occurred on Archer avenue today. 4 mob of strike sympathizers which gathered to intercept the wagons under an escort conveying food to the cal barns, charged the constables shouting and throwing stones. The rioters were finally driven back and consoIed themselves with burn ing the wagon previously wrecked neal the car barns.

GOLD BRICK MEN REFUSED.
No Relief Is Granted Them by the
 United States.

Washington, Nov. 21.-The United States supreme court today refused to grant relief to three men who are serving long sentences in the state prison of North Carolina on the charge of trying to sell a gold brick in Guilford county, in that state.
 The men are all from Chicago and gre J. l.. Howard and H. D. Hawley, who are under sentences of ten years each, and A. l.. Daily, whose sentence is seven years. They made application to the federal district court for a writ of habeas corpus and it was refused. They appealed to the state supreme court which affirmed the decision of the trial court. The prisoners then appealed the case to the United States
 Today's opinion was delivered by Justice Brewer, who said that there was no federal question involved. The effect was to affirm opinions of both the state supreme court and the fed- eral district court.

BOTH FEEL. What Proper Food Does for Both Mind and Body.

Physical health. mental health. iu- deed almost everything good on this earth depend in great measure upon proper food.
 Without health nothing is worth while and health can be won almost every time by proper feeding on the scientific food Grape-Nuts.
 California trained nurse proved this: Three years ago I was taken very sick, my work as a trained nuTse having worn me out both in body and mind, and medicine failed to relieve me at all. After seeing a number or physicians and specialists and getting no relief I was very much discoura Sed and felt that I would die of general nervous and physical collapse
 My condition was so bad l never imagined food would help me but on the advice of d friend I tried Grape Nuts. The first package brought me SO much relief that I quit the medicine, and used Grape-Nuts steadily thre- times day. The result was that with in six months I had so completely re gained my strength and health that I was back nursing again and | feel the improvement in my brain power just as plainly as I do in physical strength.
 After my own wonderful expert ence with Grape-Nuts I have recon mended-it to my patients with splendi'i success and it has worked wonders ,n the cases of many invalids whom [ have attended professionally" Nanse given by Postum Co. Battle Creek. Mich.
