ford town hall was destroyed by fire to-
night, entailing a loss variously esti-
mated at from s5OO,O0O to 100000, only

and the blaze was blown against some
papers and set fire to the building.
There were many escapes from death
in the confiagration. notably that Of
David Flynn, fireman who was on an
extension ladder when his hair was
ignited by flying sparks. Only quick
work by hose gang saved his life.
Chief of Police Brennan, States At

again into the building in the effort to
save some Of the city's records.

MACHEN CASE
DR.. LORENZ CONTINUES
HIS TESTIMONY
THE DRAFTS
And Other Transactions
With MaChen.

Washington, Feb. 4.-Dr. Lorenz
continued his testimony in the trial
iof A. w. Machen for alleged compile
ity in postal irregularities late this af-
ternoon.
He testified that on December 10,
1903, when the date for the trial had
already been set, he satisfied the bal
ance of the $4,000, announcing to
SIS, 5,87557, because he knew Machen was
in need of funds. Part of the pay
ment was made with 90-day note,
which Machen took so that he could
realize on 1t, in case Of emergency, the
$25, 900 note being long past due.
When asked by Judge Kumler about
the $1,e31 sight draft drawn on him
by Machen January 90, 1900, witness
testified that he was In Washington at
the time, being told by Diller 3. Croft
his remittance on a treasury drait for
fasteners had been sent to Toledo. He
added: had borrowed 5000 from Ma
chen, and told him to draw on me
for s1,03l. the draft being held until
my return to Toledo"
The defense took draft after draft,
put in evidence by the government as
showing transfers of money from Lor-
eng to Machen and showed by witness
that the amounts were credited to DR..
Lorenz on the note.
Checks drawn to A. w. Machen by
Mrs. Martha j. Lorenz, the witness
explained, were made by her at his
request. He said he did not think Mrs.
Lorenz knew of his business relations
with the Groffs At the conclusion,
Judge Kumler asked: "And all these
checks and drafts sent by you to A.
w. Machen were charged to his account
against the 5000 note?"
They were to satisfy the note" was
the answer.
A bunch of sight drafts by Machen
on Lorenz was nut in evidence.
DR.. Lorenz said Machen never drew
on him without permission except once
or twice, when he sent Lorenz a check
dated ahead, the transaction being in
the nature of temporary loan.
After explaining his refusal to an
swer the questions Of postoffice inspec-
tors when they called on him, Mr.. Lor-
enz denied emphatically that there ev-
er was an understanding between
himself and Machen. or himself and
the Groffs, that he was to divide his
share of the fasterer profits with Ma
chen, or any understanding whereby
Machen was to swell the consumption
Of fasteners.
did you sometimes send half your
share to Machen?" asked Judge
Kumler.
Il did so when I could afford to"
was the answer.
Il made up my mind to use as much
of my fastener money as possible to
take up the Machen note. Whey my
affairs Strengthened out, sent Ma
chen half pretty regularly"

The people at Lima are mystified ov-

deal of sympathy is expressed for the

public for many years. The exact

WELLMAN
TELLS ALL ABOUT PANAMA
RESOLUTIONS
He KNEW ALL ABOUT IT
United States Not in Any
Way involved.

New Haven, Conn, Feb AT the
annual banquet of the. New Haven
Business Mems Association tonight,
Walter Wellman, the Washington cor
respondent, was the principal speaker.
The Panama revolution was his sub
ject. Mr.. Wellman declared that to
his personal knowledge, the suspicion
of completely on the part of the Amer
lean government was wholly unfound-
ed.
II know the facts-the truth" said
the speaker. Before the isthmians
set the day for their uprising, they
sent agents to the United States to
secure, If possible, promise of help
from our government. / know that
these agents saw Secretary Hay and
tried to wrest from him some assur-
ance, no matter how vague as to what
the United States would do. also
know that they utterly failed. Mr..
Hay refused to talk with them on that
subject.
THE isthmian reports, discouraged
by the refusal of the Washington gov
ernment to extend aid to them, were
about to return home, defeated. But
in the nick of time they found help.
This help came, but not from any
American citizen. 1t came from for
eigner, man of great ability, or high
purposes, of wealth. He was free in
every way to act, and he acted He
helped organize the revolution. He
provided money-more than 100000
and with these funds preparations
were made. The order of procedure
was arranged, date was fixed. all
precautions taken.
This man who helped the 18TH
mians bade them prepare well. He
told them to use persuasive eloquence
of money in dealing with the Colon
bian troops in Panama--for well did
he know his men. He advised them
to confine their operations entirely
to the line of the railway and the
canal route. Why? Because he knew
as any intelligent man must have
known-that the United States was
under solemn treaty obligation TO pro-
tect free transit across the isthmus
He had not other assurances than
those which his common sense gave
him and his understanding of the
situation. He needed no other and
events have demonstrated his sagac-
ity"

ABLE TO TELL STORY

Pittsburg, Pa, Feb. 4.--Adolph
Gunia, aged IS, the sole survivor Of
the Harwick mine disaster, is improv-
ing rapidly at the st. Francis hospital
and was today, for the first time able
to talk, reported interviews notwith-
standing. He told detailed story OF
his experience before and after the
explosion, in the following manner:
II was at work about 240 feet from
the main shaft caging.' There we're
many other men working about me
but none within 80 feet Of me. All at
once felt the air become cold. frig-
idly cold 1t seemed as IL l were treez-
ing. This lasted but half minute
when binding flash shot through the
mine and | knew no more. Then |
awoke-I know not how long after. My
face and hands were paining me great
ly. l cried for help. 1t must have been
a full hour that l wandered about the
dark recesses of the mine when l saw
the light from the shaft and heard the
rescuing party The air was heavy but
not oppressive. l called to the ap-
preaching rescuers and after several
attempts they reached me. I remem-
bered the trip to the surface but then
no more until awoke the next day."
Gunia speaks good English and
seems to be fairly well educated. He
is gaining his sight, but it will be some
weeks before he can be discharged from
the hospital owing to horrible unheal-
ed burns about his face and arms.

WAR MEASURES
In Force at Capital OF
Japan.

Toxic. Feb. Awhile war has not
actually begun, war measures are in
force here as the correspondents of
the various press associations and
newspapers who have endeavored to
transmit messages have found out to
their cost. A rigorous censorship has
been established and all messages that
are not satisfactory to the official in
charge are promptly blue penciled.
This probably means that when hos
tilities actually begin. only news ia
vorable to the Japanese cause will be
permitted to become public from jap
anese territory.
