rnony Of Herbert J. Browne.

ate military affairs committee resumed

ard Wood TO he Major Generay, Herbert
]. Browne, newspaper man who was
in Cuba during the American occupa-
ton. told the committee he had OBJ
tained affidavits made by shareholders
Of Jai Alai Company which had been
filed by Major Rathbone. In the af-
fldavits the shareholders declared their
stock had been assessed for the purpose
OF paying tho cost of presents which
were given by gambling establish
ment to General and Mrs. Wood.
Browne was questioned in regard to the
charge that Wood knew the character
OF the .Jai Alai when he argued in favor
of granting the concession to operate.
When reference to this charge was
made by Browne he was asked by Sen
ator Cockrell to substantiate his asser-
ton. He did so by directing atten-
ton to the official publications in Hav-
ana newspapers showing the nature OF
the Jai Alai establishment. These
statements included copy OF the COM
pany's by laws and 1t was declared
these had been suppressed by Wood in
his statement to the war department
concerning the establishment. The
ground gone over by Browne Is covered
In the general statement of charges
filed with the committee by Rathbone.
A member OF the committee stated to-
day he believed nearly month would
be consumed in the inquiry.

HOLOCAUST N A
grading CAMP
Twenty-seven Italians Burned
In shanty, Which Took
Fire While They Slept
a MAD STRUGGLE TO ESCAPE
Many Died in Vain Effort to Secure
Possession Of Treasure Which They
Had Hoardsd in Trunk. in the Build
ing whsrs They sIept-None Is Iden-
tilted.

Johnstown Pa, Nov. 21-While over
hundred Italian railroad laborers
were asleep in shanty near Lilly to-
day the building caught fire and before
the foreigners could escape at. least
twenty seven were burned to death and
a score more seriously injured. The
men were employed on the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad Improvements. The shanty
was about 100 feet long and one story
In height The men slep. in hunks like
sardines in can. There was only one
door at each end. while the windows
were few and small. the fire Is sup
posed to have started from an over
heated stove. The building burned like
finder and the flames were upon the
men before any OF them were aroused.
Then began struggle for life. They
fought and scrambled for the doors, the
weaker being crushed down and tram
pied upon. while others were roasted to
death.
Those who strove for the door were
in the widest sort Of panic. They
fought and kicked and among those
who escaped there are many who bear
marks of the fierce strife which took
place In this battle for life. A few got
out OF the small windows minus clothes
and with their bodies cut from the
broken glass. Many Of those who did
manage to get out had their savings Of
years in their trunks which they left
behind them In the building. Remem-
bering this fact as soon as they got
outside. they fought just as fercely to
get back. A few succeeded, but for thu
sake Of their boarded treasure they
gave up their lives. One. eyewitness
says he does not believe single man
OF those who returned succeeded in set-s
ting out again. IN the ruins soma
corpses were cl>se beside the hooped
bands Of their trunks and the melted
gold and silver which had been kept IN
those receptacles indicated they had
fallen and died with their treasure In
their arms The bodies all were 'prac-
tically burned to pieces. An Italian
who looked at them today and VINO
knew every man in the shanty was un-
able to identity single one.

authorized favorable report on the

procity treaty.

that time be agreed upon early in the
regular session for taking vote on
the bill Members generally expressed
themselves as willing to enter into such
an arrangement and the fourteenth OF

time for taking the vote. All MEM
bers OF the committee. except Senators

delegation on the judgeship adjourned

pared and announced. One or two OF
the companies have since adopted sub
stantially the Iowa uniform pollcy
which complies with the law, but the
big companies have gone on with q
great variety of policies, some OF which
conform 20 the law while others are
open to some question. Suits are pend
ing that will get some of the matters
about which there Is controversy be-
fore the courts and before the legis-
lature for determination. In the mean
time the record stands that the policy
which was prepared by Auditor Mer-
Ram as one in perfect keeping with
the laws OF the state is not in use.
The stationary engineers of Iowa are
in favor of law to provide for examin-
ing and licensing such engineers to the
end that persons shall not be allowed
to run engines or care for boilers who
are not competent. There have been
frequent attempts to legislate along
this line and all have failed. There Is
also much interest. especially among
laboring men. in the matter of pro-
v.dinE for a systematic boiler inspec-
ton. State Labor Commissioner Brig
ham has some strong recommendations
in his biennial report on the boiler IN
spection proposition and he has plan
for a law that will compel every owner
of boiler to secure inspection regu-
larly. Undoubtedly there will be legis-
lation on this line.
The fart that Hon. NJ. L. Temple, of
Osceola. would not be a candidate for
speaker when the final roundup is
made has been known In Des Moines
among the acquaintance of George w.
Clarke for some time. Mr.. Temple ap-
preached a number of legislators. or
persons likely to be elected. before
election and found that the prospect of
making fight to defeat Clarke was not
very good. In the meantime he went
out over the state and made speeches
for a number of the republican candi-
dates in districts that were in doubt
and did ALI that he could to insure

house will be organized much as 1t was
two years ago, by the selection Of a
speaker by reclamation in the caucus.
The clerk of the house and the secre-
tary OF the senate Will be selected in
the same way.
The long pending suits Of the state
Of Iowa against L. Young and c. T.
Jones will be brought to trial very
soon in the district court here. Jones
is defendant against a claim on ac-
count Of fees. These were fees that
went for copying opinions for outsid-
ers, but they were decrsed all right by
the last legislature. The case against
Young Is for the recovery Of over
charges n the matter Of binding state
documents. Both these cases will likely
reach the supreme cour. for ANAL de
termination as to the rights Of the par
ties in the matter. The cases were or
dered by the state executive council a
year or more ago and have hung on the
docket because nobody has had time to
push them to finish.

IOWA FARMER ROBBED.

Special to Times-Republican.
Kansas City. Nov. PIP. c. Rich. a
well-to-do farmer Of Cass county.
Iowa. who sold his property near At
lantic a few days ago and came to
Kansas City Wednesday with $500 in
cash In his pockets. was held up ThLrs-
day night and relieved of the entire
amount The unfortunate man was ac-
companied by his brother, d. E. Rich.
OF Extra. Iowa. The brothers we're on
their way to southern Missouri, where
p. c. Rich intended to purchase q farm.
Mr. Rich had placed the money In two
separate pockets on the inside of his
vest. and had taken the precaution to
have his wife sew the roll Of bills be-
tween pieces Of pasteboard and then
sew up the pockets so that It could not
work out.
The brothers left Atlantic. Iowa, ear
ly Wednesday morning and came by
way OF Omaha. where they spent a few
hours. They landed in Kansas City in
the afternoon and registered at the
Morgan House on West Ninth street.
After supper Thursday evening they
walked down to the union depot. where
they spent few minutes, and then
started back to the hotel on foot. They
lost their way In returning and went a
block too far north. reaching Eighth
street. and then turned east on that
street It was dark. and in the vicinity
where the holdup took place. near the
mouth of the Eighth street tunnel, there
Is but little travel at night. It Is an
ideal spot for just such crime as was
committed on Mr.. Rich. Between
Washington and Broadway was the
place selected by the robbers. who had
no doubt been on the trail of the two
men from the time they left the hotel.
With their faces covered with masks
they pointed two revolvers at Mr.. Rich
and told him to hold up his hands AT
this point his brother fled to summon
hep and the robbers soon tore open his
vest pocket pocket that had been so
securely sewed up by his wife and took
all he had and then fed In the dark
ness. The men found their way back to
the hotel and reported the affair to the
police. but as they were unable, to give
a good description of the men, 1t Is very
doubtful whether they will be captured.
Mr.. Rich stated that the money stolen
represented the toll Of years, and was
all he had.
