Y, Nov. 2S.-In a Ire yesterday one man and eight horses were burned to death, three large stables and carriage manufac- tory were entirely destroyed, another large stable was wrecked, and half a dozen other buildings were damaged.

STEVE ASHE THE OLD
 PITCHER COMMITS SUICIDE

Steve Ashe, the former pitcher and umpire in the Connecticut Baseball league, cut his throat Saturday at his home in New Haven and died early yesterday morning in Grace hospital, ~ He had been sick for several days and while his wife was asleep, after an all nights vigil, he tRok razor and cut his throat From ear to ear. She was awakened by hearing him fall off q couch and she discovered him on the floor bleeding from wound ten inches long.
 Ashe was 31tyears old and had been married seven years His father, Nil chael Ashe, and one brother live in Thompsonville. They went to see him Saturday evening. EEe had daughter years old At one time Ashe was employed by the Berlin Iron bridge company but during a strike of the employees he left and had been unable to secure a good position since. For some years he had lived on Grand avenue in New Haven.
 In 1890 Ashe joined the New Haven nine and he was the rmainstay of the pitching staff He did much toward winning the pennant for the team the first year 1t was in the state league He pitched for the next two years. In 1901 bis arm began to weaken and he was overworked because another pitcher on the team was injured. He . started the next season with the New London club but his arm was in such poor shape that he was compelled to abandon the work and was appointed an umpire. He did not shine in this business. He did not find the saloon business congenial or profitable and then he tried bridge building.
 Ashe had been despondent for some time. He, told friend a few days ago that he was, down on his luck a nd everybody seemed to be against him, The friend remarked that if he, felt that wav he ought to 20 to Middle town. This remark seemed to worry the old ball player and he talked d. most incessently about 1t. Mrs Ashe watched her husband for fortv-eight hours to prevent him from doing in- jury to himself and he did not nave n cirance to make the attem2t upon his life until she was obliged to sleep through exhaustion.

SOLDIERS VICTORY.
West Point Football Team
 Defeat Naval Cadets.
EUSHlMI AND FAIRBANKS LOOK ON
Annual Army and, Navy Contest Ffercely FOught-FinaI Verdict Was II to For Mili-
 thry Players.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2S.--In the presence of Japanese. royalty and American offieialdom, both military and naval, and under the eyes of 3OOOO persons West Point defeated Annapo- lis i'll game that deserves to be called sttbbornly fought.
 The annual army-navy game can al- ways be depended on to bring out an assenblage which for genuine. whole souled enthusiasm. and picturesqueness of appearance is excelled by no other American out of door gathering. Of course the observed. of all observers was his royal highness Prince Fushi- mi, who with his suit, occupied seats onthe navy's side of the field, accom- panied by Mayor Weaver and c. C.. Harrison. provost of the University of Pennsylvania. All the Japanese wore frock coats and silk hats and watched the match with close attention.
 Vice President Elect and Mrs. Fair banks occupied seats on West Points stand, while Secretary of the Navy Morton was the center of large group in box on stand appropriated by the sailors.
 The final verdict in the contest was Ii to 0 in favor of the soldiers, and all the scoring was done in the first half, when the West Pointers consistently Fortplayed the niddies. { The second half was different sto- ", for, although deprived of the serv- ices of about half her best men, who had been retired to the side line with injuries, Annapolis rallied desperately and for the greater part of the half really fought the soldiers to a stand still. Once the navy fought her way for fifty yards without losing the ball, only to be held by quarterback kick on the third down only twenty-two yards from that passionately desired touchdown. For the better part of the second half play was in the army's ter ritory, but as darkness drew on the army's strength returned, her attack recovered its earlier vigor, and she was only twenty-five yards from her ene- my's goal and going strong when time expired.
 All the same, 1t was an unexpectedly stubborn and skiilful defense that the sailors put up, defense which sur prised the many who had expected a rather easy victory for the soldiers and which reflected great credit on the work of Paul Dashiell, the Annapolis coach. 1t is more than, likely that, had not an Annapolis back clumsily han dled punt the army would have been forced to content itself with a single touchdown. and the score would have, been only to O..
