Very Dry.

The determination of government of.
ficials to stop the sale of mild beer in
the city and other towns in the South
ern district is apparent in the fact
that many of those places that hereto
fore did a thriving business are now
closed and it is said they will remain
so until the grand jury meets. Many
of the dealers formerly engaged in
selling the beverage were unaware
that they were violating the law. With
the announcement that gambling must
cease Ardmore Is certainly becoming
y moral town.

SEES DEFECTS
IN OUR LAWS
Foreign Insurance Expert
Says That We Need More
Stringent Fire Ordinances

Victor Z. Rhodin of Stockholm. a
commissioner from the insurance
companies of Sweden, arrived here
yesterday from the East and is regis
tered at the st. Francis. According
to the visitor, the purpose of his tour
of this country is to inspect conditions
in SO far as they apply to insurance
risks, and particularly to those risks
assumed by the companies of-Sweden,
which have been doing a large busi-
ness in the United States, but at a
loss. Discussing this subject he said
Few of the ordinary insurers in
this country realize the great amount
of reinsurance done by foreign COM
panies, but it is very large, and, owing
to a number of recent big fires in the
United States. the losses have been in
excess of anything anticipated. The
fire n Baltimore two months ago was
a disastrous one for our companies
and 1t was Immediately after this un-
fortunate conflagration that 1 was
sent over here to study your condi-
tions. 1 have visited nearly all your
big cities in the East and from here
l visit the cities of the Middle West,
including st. Louis and Chicago. In
Chicago our risks are very large and
for that reason L am anxious to de-
vote considerable time there
4hodin's tour of inspection sa far
has not favorably impressed him with
the conditions of safety that exist
here. After visiting New York, Buff
falo, Rochester, Baltimore and Phila-
delphia he arrived at the opinion that
a fire similar to the recent one in Bal
iimore may occur in any of the other
cities mentioned at any time and re-
suit in as great a loss. This condition
of affairs he attributes to what ap-
pears to him to be lack of stringent
laws regulating the construction of
buildings, and upon this subject he
says
'"rhe laws of the majority of the
cities in this country that 1 have Wis
tied do not favorably compare with
those of foreign cities. Ny own coun-
try is so small that it would not be
fair TO use it as comparison, but say
you take London as an example.
There you will find very few buildings
over four stories in height and most
of them are two or three in height.
Even the largest do not rise over six
or seven stories, and particular atten-
tion is given to facilities for fighting
fires. In this comparison. of course. L

shall have sufficient room for fight
ing fires from the streets as well as

country the buildings abut each other
so that it is possible to combat a
fire from only one side, generally the
street There are also other condi-
tions that tend to make fire insurance
rates on the other side of the Atlantic
lower than in this country.
According to our statistics America
has more disastrous fires than any other
country in the world. and naturally
the uncertainty of the earning power
of insurance capital in America makes
the country undesirable TO insurance

QUARREL ENDS
IN A KILLING
William McNamee Is Shot
Dead by William Casey

William McNamee. a carpenter, 2S
years Of age, was shot and instantly
killed shortly after o'clock last night
by William Casey, proprietor OF a gro
cery and saloon at 52l Cortland ave-
rue. The killing was the result of a
quarrel. and Casey says he fired the
fatal shot in self defense. He occupies
a cell at the Seventeenth-street sta
tion. He is charged with murder.
There were several eye witnesses to
the tragedy. and they all corroborate
the statement made by Casey. Nc
Nance entered the barroom of the
place shortly after s o'clock and en-
gagged in a wordy row with Casey, who
ordered him oct of the place and eau
toned him not to return.
McNamee left reluctantly, muttering
as he walked away. He returned,
however, in about half an hour, and
this time started in to wreck the sa-
loon. Casey jumped from behind the
bar and grabbed a club and started to
beat McNamee on the head.
He finally dropped the weapon and
the men engaged in fist fight. They
were roughing it for several minutes
and Casey seemed TO be getting the
better Of the argument when McNamee
left the place.
He stepped inside the door moment
later and made a rush at Casey, at
the same time making a motion as if

The number Of societies organized

hundreds, one of the most prominent
being the prohibition party. This
society, it is true, is not so popular as
either the democratic or republican,
but it attends to business a. close as
any and makes a much greater noise
in proportion to its size. The names
of it's presidential candidates, Swallow
and Carroll, would make a good motto
for a stein SOiree; they are, at least,
curious coincidence. The prospects
of the party are not brilliant; it's soli-
tary aim is so little interesting tx

are unable to realize the vast and ex'
