WHY HE. WAS BRIEF.
Reason Given for Champ cIark's Short
Speech.

st. Louis, July IA good many
people have been wondering that
Champ Clark cut his speech to five
minutes in accepting the gavel as per-
manent chairman of the convention.
The advance copy of the speech pub
lished in the st. Louis evening pa
pers filled a page of space and was a
g~lori1cation OF Organism, of free
trade, and of the other things for
which Mr.. Clark has so picturesquely
stood for SO many years.
The. story of how he came to make
a five-minute talk which contained
no offensive reference to any of these
topics is interesting. After Clark had
been agreed on tor permanent chair
man it was learned at the d. B. Hill
headquarters that he purposed max
ing a speech of an hour and a half
long, of practically a radical and in
cendiary character.
Hill said this wouldn't do, and SO
said all the conservatives, and a COM
mittee was appointed to demonstrate
with Clark.
The committee was unsuccessful,
Clark saying that if he was made per-
manent chairman he would make any
old kind Of a speech he pleased. Then
Governor Dockery appealed to- him.
but he had no better success with
Clark than did the committee.
Finally, at 3 o'clock in the morning,
Hill issued an ultimatum, saying that
il Clark adhered to his proposed
speech the conservatives would con.
test his selection as permanent chair
man on the floor of the convention
and demand a roll call, which would
insure his defeat. This brought Clark
to terms. and his mild and ~colorless
speech of five minutes was the result

Placing Horses on BilIings-L ewistown
Stage Route.

Stage Route.
w. G. Doherty, proprietor OF the
Great Falls, Lewistown and Gilt Edge
stage line, left this city this afternoon
on a trip over the line as far as Utica
to pick up. horses and drivers to be
employed on the Lewistown route,
says the Great Falls Leader. From
Utica MI. Doherty will take about
five men to handle the horses and will
go along the new route distributing
the horses among the various relay
stations and making arrangements for
the opening of the passenger and mail
line which will start on the 10th OF
this month. He will go as far as Bill
ings, where he will establish a ter
minal Office, and will remain on the
route until about the goth of the
month.
A new Concord coach, the mabel"
was sent out on the line from here
yesterday.
This is the route established under
the recent order of the postal depart
ment, by which Billings was made the
southern terminal, instead of Junction,
which was the supplying Office for
all the postofices along the line. The
new service became effective last Sun
day, when the first mail left this city
for the north.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT LEAGUE.
Will Meet Tonight and Try to Accom-.
plish Something.

Tonight the Civic Improvement lea
que will hold a regular meeting in the
council chamber of the city hall. Al
though the league has met a number
of times since its organization, it may
not be truthfully credited with hav-
ing accomplished much In the direc-
ton of effecting any of the purposes
for which 1t was organized. Some OF
the gentlemen prominently identified
with bringing it into life have SO many
matters of private concern to look at
ter that they find but little time to
devote to a labor no more remunera-
tive than that involved in causing
some one else to clean his backyard
or to remove offensive weeds growing
about his premises.
"A week or two ago it vas practically
decided to employ a force of boys and
under the supervision Of league mem
bers place them at work removing
Russian thistles and other growth
from the street edges and vacant lots.
For some reason this plan was not
carried out and the thistles have about
taken the town, with every promise
Of soon becoming SO plentiful that
their eradication will prove almost i'm
possible. There are still a few mem
bers of the body who have not yet
given up all hope and tonight they will
make another effort to instill the 9th.
ers with a little OF their spirit and
enthusiasm and endeavor to spur them
into doing something.
1t has been suggested that if the
city council were to assist the lea
que to the extent of adopting more
| stringent ordinances for the cleanli'
ness of the city than are now on the
books and then see to it that they
were enforced and the utmost ODE
dience to them insisted upon the lea
que would find it's self-imposed labors
greatly lessened and much good would
result.

Following the dispatch OF Major General

BUFFALO. n. Y. Feb. 25.-The Express
tomorrow will print an interview with a
traffic official of one of the trunk lines in
which he predicts that the grain rate war
now in progress between Buffalo-New York
lines and the Pennsylvania will become a
general rate war within six weeks.
The interview says in part: 1T is my
opinion that unless one side or the other
recedes a rate war will shake the peace
of the trunk lines within six weeks and
will be augmented by the rate war in the
West. which is rapidly approaching crisis.
The Pennsylvania.s latest cut which brings
the rate on grain between Buffalo and Phil

New York Central. Erie and Lackawanna.
Pennsylvania officials say they will con-

TORCH APPLIED TO HIDE
EVIDENCE OF MURDER
Three Buildings Burned and Girl
and Man Crelnated in Lodg-
ing House.
ANOTHER BODY ON ROOF

COLORADO SPRINGS, -CeI.,' Feb. g.
Two lives were lost in a fire that destroyed
three buildings and threatened the entire
business section of the city to-day. The
dead are: Leta Smith, a seventeen-year-
old girl. and a man whose remains were
charred beyond recognition. The girl per-
ished in her room at lodging house from
which her mother. Mrs. Mary Smith, es-
capped by jumping. The remains of the man
were found in the debris lodged between
the timbers of two buildings that had
burned.
1t developed tonight that according to
a theory upon which the police are now
working the fire was started by persons
who desired to hide murder. Mike Mcclure,
a laborer, was found dead on the roof of an
adjoining building, and it is believed that
during a drunken brawl which preceded
the fire Mcclure received injuries which
scared the others SO that they threw him
out of the building and then started the
fire under him to hide their crime. No ar
rests have been made.

GHOST STORY REALISM
IN A CHURCH RESULTS
IN TERRIBLE ACCIDENT
Ten Little Children Seriously
Burned and Others Badly or
Painfully Injured.
EXPLOSION OF ALCOHOL
Which Was Being Used to Make
Weird Fire While the Pastor
Was Telling Tale.

CINCINNATI, Feb. 25.-An accident at
tonight resulted in ten children being Sc
riously burned and others painfully in
jured Seven of those burned and are in
the City Hospital and it is thought many
whose names were not learned were badly
burned.
The Sunday-school room was crowded for
an entertainment given by the pastor, Rev.
Vernon Stauffer. The evening had been
set apart for the small boys and quite a
crowd of girls gathered on the outside. The
evening was spent in such games as tag"
leap frog and other pranks, after which
the pastor was telling fairy stories One
of the stories was to have an air of mys-
terry with ghostly scenes.
In order to make the story more realistic,
the pastor provided a kettle which had salt
in the bottom of it This was saturated
lights OF the ghost story. When the boys
Were gathered around the weird fire, sud
denly a draft struck the stream of alcohol
ard an explosion followed, Transforming
the scene of frivolity into a charnel house.
All those seated around the fire were
burned.
Besides the seven taken TO the hospital
three were taken home badly burned and
others not seriously injured were bandaged
up and taken home. Patrol wagons and
physicians were summoned and the injuries
of the little ones were bandaged as to
ride through the cold snowstorm safely.
The blame for the draft is charged to the
little girls who had been excluded and
were opening the doors to look in. Rev.
Mr.. Stauffer held in his hand at the time a
bottle of alcohol. which was not touched
or the effects would have been much worse.
The pastor is at a loss 10 know how the
accident happened. 1t was all over in an
instant and no one present could tell how
it happened.
Those taken to the City Hospital were
George Mangelo. aged six years; Carl Ber-
tram, aged six years; Earl Carson, aged
twelve years; Waldron Larkby, aged fifteen
years. and Walter Merrill, aged twelve
years. Among those taken to their homes
VINO were DaulN were Bren-
nan, aged twelve years; Harry Bertram,
aged eleven years. and Freddie Bertram,
aged thirteen years.
After midnight il was reported at the
City Hospital that George Mangelo could
not recover and ii was feared that others
had inhaled the flames, so that their condi-
ton is doubtful.
1t was at first announced that the bot
tie of alcohol which the pastor held in his
hand to replenish the weird fire was intact.
While the bottle was not broken. later re-
ports are that the explosion happened when
he poured its contents into the kettle, after
the fire had once burned down. And then
the flames burst forth like a red cloud over
the boys that surrounded the kettle Of salt.
