FIRE DISASTER AT WINNIPEG.
Worst in City's History - No Lives
Lost

WINNIPEG, Manitoba, October 12.-Thls
city was visited last night by the worst
fire in it's history In two hours two Of
the most important business blocks were
destroyed. entailing losses estimated at
$7OO, 600 with insurance of 100000. No
lives were lost.
The damage is summarized as follows:
New Bulman block. with stock, value
son, 600, totally destroyed.
]. H. Ashdown's block, value 100000; to-
tally destroyed.
Davis block, partially damaged.
Rialto block, badly damaged by water,
smoke and heat.
The firms financially affected are:
Bulman Brothers, engravers and fine art
printers: J. H. Ashburn, hardware; l..
Meikle & Co.. Bryce & Co., ]. & G. Cleg-
horn, manufacturing agents; Steele & Co.,
PHOTOGRAPHERS; Dufferin Company, Kings
ton Smith Arms Company.
The fire originated in the Bulman block.
The flames spread with such rapidity that
at one period it looked as If the confiagra-
ton would rival those of Toronto and Of
tawa.
Owing to the fact that there were chem
icals in the Bulman building the flames
within few minutes were pouring forth
from the top of that structure. Tongues
of fire shot out on all sides and reached
out over to Ashdown's. The fire also at
tackled the Davis block and the Woodbine
Hotel The best the f1remen could do was
to endeavor to localiZe the outbreak, and
this looked well nigh impossible owing to
the rapidity with which 1t made it's way
through the Ashdown block and threatened
Banfield's. the Leland Hotel and Rialto
block. The Rialto block was badly dam
aged by water and heat, but the danger
to the other two structures was averted
The walls of the burned blocks have all
fallen in, and though the firemen have the
1re under control it will burn for days.

EARLY CLOSING QUESTION.
Complaint Considered by the Inter
state Commission.

The interstate commerce commission, In
an opinion by Chairman Knapp, has an
ncunced it's decision In the case OF the Gin
cinnati chamber of commerce and merch-
ants exchange against the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railroad Company and
other roads centerirfg in Cincinnati. Inc
complaint was against the regulation OF
the carriers changing the hour of closing
their freight depots for the reception OF
outgoing package freight from to 4:30
pm daily, except Saturday, and from 1
to 1890 pm on Saturdays.
The commission holds that it's jurisdic-
ton extends to case of alleged unlaw-
full prejudice and disadvantage to ship
pers of outbound package freight through
enforcement by carriers of a regulation
providing for the earlier closing OF depots
used for the reception of such freight.
The commission finds that rule for early
closing which prevents congestion Oh
freight in the receiving depot is as much
to the advantage of the shipper as later
hour would be in enabling the shipper to
place his freight in the depot, and that
the carriers are apparently doing the best
they can in their present circumstances.
On the other hand the large and growing
volume of outbound package freight from
Cincinnati indicates the necessity of siren
uous efforts by the carriers to remove any
existing hardship to the shippers through
their inability under the early closing rule.
to compete OH even terms with shippers in
other distributing cities. The decision of
the commission is that the existing disad-
vantage to Cincinnati shippers, under pres
ent circumstances is not unreasonable or
undue, but may become so If the present
condition is continued indefinitely. and that
dismissal of the complaint will be without
prejudice to any further necessary proceed
ing

Illinois Brethren Advise Long Court
ship-For Uniform Law.


ship-For Uniform Law.
CHICAGO, October 12.-After a pro-
longed discussion. lasting nearly a week,
the report OF the committee of marriage
and divorce was presented at the last
moment at the closing session Of the
slxty-f1fth Rock River conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church last night.
The report recommended long court
shfp-long enough to test the quality of
love. The Importance of the permanence
OF the marriage tie was emphasized as
having direct bearing on human de-
Velopment- The committee was unani-
nous In maintaining that a marriage was
contracted until death doth part" The
bond was declared to be indissoluble and
never to be entered into irreverently or
inadvisedly.
The pricipal contention that divided the
committee was upon the question Of
recognizing as candidate for second
marriage the innocent party to a divorce
decree. The decision was a compromise.
"A resolution was adopted to the effect
that legislation ought to be adopted for
the purpose of prohibiting the remarriage
OF the guilty matrimonial party to a di-
vorce decree during the lifetime of the
innocent party to the contention.
stamping divorce as species Of selfish
ness, the report condemned the free
lover who. "ninety-nine times out of a
hundred seeks divorce that he may have
more marriages."
The conference voted to join with other
churches in an attempt to secure the
enaction of uniform divorce laws in every
state.

is reported here though not officially con-

injunction to prevent the reconstruction of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad bridge
across the Ohio river at this point. All the
spans have been rebuilt except the two
channel spans. and it Is reported that the
courts will be called upon to prohibit the
construction of the two remaining spans,
upon the ground that under the laws gov

laws would not remove the old piers. they
would prevent the construction of new ones
and the reconstruction of the bridge is
equivalent to the construction of a new
