OVERCOME BY TOBACCO SMOKE
New York Firemen Compelled to Work
In Two-Minute Relays.


New York. June 13.-Thirty firemen
we're temporarily overcome by tobacco
smoke and the fumes from alcohol
while fighting a fire in Holtz's cafe in
Broadway. The fire was confined to
the sub-cellar, in which liquor and
cigars were stored. and the fumes and
cigars hindered the firemen to such an
extent that they were compelled 10
work in two-minute relays. During
the fire the ambulance surgeon was sta
toned nearby to care for the firemen,
whose eyes caused them intense pain
after each rush into the smoke. The
damage to the restaurant was 100000.
The upper floors of the building are
occupied by wholesale milliners, and
the loss on their stock, which was
practically ruined by the smoke, is
also placed at 100000.
Another fire, in the wash house and
storage houses of the Jacob Hoffman
Brewing Company in East 55th street,
caused a loss estimated at 5000, 000.
Here the fremen saved the brew
house, which contained several large
ammonia tanks, and by the shutting
off of power in the engine room al
lowed the ammonia in the storage
pipes in the burning buildings to es-
cape, thus preventing explosions. One
of the firemen fell from a roof, but
caught hold of a line Of hose and slid
TO the ground without injury.

General r. II. Pratt, superintendent OF
the famous Indian school here. wa
seen in reference to the appointment
Of Captain Mercer OF the Uintah In
dian Agency. TO succeed him. as a pua-
ishment. He said he knew nOthine
about il. but that it did not surprise
him at all. as nothing surprises him.
He said nothing had happened recently
which might lead him to believe that
such action was coming.
Nevertheless. ii was General Pratt
who recently said. and frequently re-
iteratod. that it would have been far
better If the Imam bureau OF the inte-
rior department had never been form
ed. General Pratt held that the proper
treatment of all Indians would be to
encourage. educate and develop them
along the lines which have been so
successful in schools like the one he
has made famous here. instead Of iso-
latlng and robbing them. rs the nation
al policy so long pursued has made
possible. He has repeatedly taken
issue with the chief OF the anthropoioS-
zeal department Of the Indian bureau,
who only recently wrote to the general
that some of his statements regarding
the national policy toward the Indian
were falsehoods. This. however, only
led General Pratt to reiterate more en-
phatically what he had before said,
and to invite the Chief Anthropy" 10
make any use he chose of his (the gem
erars) statements The use made OF
them became apparent in the appoint
ment dlsplacing General Pratt in his

Supt. of Carlisle Indian School Re-

PUNISHED FOR PUBLIC SPEECHES

He Held That Indians Should Be En-

and Robbed, AS Agents Had Long
Done.
Washington. juno 13.-General Rich
ard Pratt, L. S. A.. has been re-
lleved as superintendent OF the Carlisle
Indian school by Secretary Of War
Taft at the request of Secretary OF the
Interior Hitchcock. This action is the
result OF General Pratt's recent criti-
clsms, in public addresses, OF officials
in the administration OF the Indian
Bureau.
In one Of these addresses General
Pratt was reported to have said that
the officials Of the b.reau we're bar
nacles on The public service" and that
"the bureau should be abolished.
These remarks naturally aroused much
indignation in the bureau, and when
the published reports OF them we're
brought TO the attention of the general
he did not deny that he had been cor
rectly reported
No further action was taken on the
matter at the time. as Indian Commi--
sioncr Jones was on the point Of lcay-
ing for the West on a tour OF inspeo-
ton. He returned. and lost no time In
laying the case before Secretary Hilton
cock. with whom he had a long con-
ference
The outcome was a decision 10 ask
the secretary of war to relieve General
Pratt from the sH arintendoncy OF the
Carlisle Indian School AS punish
mcnt for his diarespcctfu language re-
garGing his superiors in the Indian bu-
reau." This was done AT once by the
