LOOKS BAD FOR WOOD.
Testimony Before the Commission on
Military Affairs Is Not compIi-
mentary TO General.

Washington, Nov. 24.---When the sem
ate military affairs committee resumed
today its investigation of the charges
against confirmation of General Leon
ard Wood to be major general, Herbert
J.. Browne, "a newspaper man who was
in Cuba during the American occupa-
ton, told the committee that he had
obtained the affidayits made by share
holders of the Jai Alai company, which
had been filed by Major Rathbone. In
the afidaVits the shareholders declared
their stock had been assessed for the
purpose of paying the cost of presents
which We're given by the gambling es-
Establishment to General and Mrs. Wood.
Browne al questioned in regard to
the charge that Wood knew the char
acter of the Jai Alai when he argued in
favorof granting it asconcessfon to OPP
crate. When reference to this charge
was made by Browne he was asked by
Senator Coclsrell to s~ubstantiate his as
sertion. He did SO by directing atten-
ton to official publications in Havana
newspapers showing the nature Of the
Jai Alai establishment. These state
ments included a copy of the company's
bylaws and it was declared these had
been suppressed by Wood in his state
n1ent to the war department concern
ing tie establishment. The ground gone
over by Browne is covered in the gem
eral statement of charges fled with the
committee by Rathbone. A member of
the committee stated today he believed
nearly q month would be consumed in
the inalliTy. ~ "

JohlistoWn, Pa, Nov. 24.-While over

The shanty was abcut&101 feet long,
one story high. The men slept in
hunks like sardines in a can. There
was only one door at each end and win

The fire is supposed to haY started

The Battle for Life.
Those who strove for theadoor were
in the widest panic. They fought and
kicked, and those who escaped bear the
marks Of the fierce strife of this battle
for life. A few got out of the small
windows, minus their clothes, and with
their bodies cut from broken glass.
Many of those who did manage to
get out had their savings for years in
their trunks, which they left behind in
the building. Remembering this as
soon as they got outside they fought
just as fiercely to get back A few sue

One eye witness says he does not be-

turned succeeded in getting out again.
In the ruins some corpses Were found
close beside the hoped bands of their
trunks, and the melted gold and silver
which had been. kept in those reeep-I
tacles indicated they h;w fallen and
