An alarm was turned in at S:45
O'Clock calling the flremen to the Bick-
ford Shantz storage warehouse In North
Water street. Within a minute after
the first alarm call was sent for all
available apparatus. Within fire min

the theatre was ablaze from cellar to

Manager McCallum had been one of
the first to learn of the location of the
fire, and when it threatened to spread

announced that owing TO a mishap to
the electric wiring the audience would
have to be dismissed. The orchestra

HIGHLY BY HIS
ATTORNEY
Rural Free Delivery a
Monument ofHis Ability.
SCORED PROCUREMENT

Washington, Feb - 24.-Attorney
Douglass for A. w. Machen in the
postal investigation finished his ar
gument this afternoon after consuming
eight hours in its delivery. It's end
ing was marked by eulogy of Machen,
whose organization of the rural free
delivery service, his lawyer said,
would stand as a monument to his
ability even If he is convicted. Mr..
Douglass closed with an eloquent por-
trayal of the suspense with which the
verdict is awaited by the defendants.
Holmes Conrad spoke for an hour,
opening the final address for the gov
ernment. He will continue tomorrow.
Mr.. Conrad was feeble from illness and
unable to sustain the powerful effort
with which he first pictured to the
jury the reverse side of the scene de-
picted by Mr.. Douglass at the end of
his argument. He said that If men,
in contemplation of crime could see
the agony and despair attending con-
yiction, their acts would be prevented
In summing up the results of the in
vestigation Mr., Conrad declared Wal
ter S. Mayer, the chief postoffice in
spector, had displayed an analytical
ability in accounts which had never
been equalled.
The case will probably go to the jury
tomorrow afternoon.

CHOICE OF DEATHS
Seemed To Be Offered to
 Steamers s Passengers
A Fire Raging Within Drove Fourteen Persons to Watery Death in a Rag ing Sea Without.

Port Townsend, Wash, Feb. 2S-Af- ter suffering the most narrowing ex- perience from fire and storm that has ever befallen a craft on. the north Pacific coast the steamer Queen put in here to report the loss of fourteen lives.
 About 3.45 on Saturday morning. while off the mouth of Columbia river the Queen caught fire in the after saloon in some unexplained way. With indescribable swiftness the fire gained headwty and threatened the whoIa ship. To add to the horror the heavy seas running meant death to any sent away in life boats.
 The flames became more and more threatening until when it seemed a choice of deaths, Captain Cousins ordered the life boats launched. They were manned by a crew and ordered to remain close to the ship. Into these the women and children were placed. Hardly. however, had the boats been cast loose than unable to weathe: the fierce waves. two of them capsized.
 Those of the crew who remained on board continued to fight against the flames until TAO a. m. when the fire was brought under control.
 The occupants of the remaining life boats were then taken aboard.

KANSAS CITY MARKETS
A Review of Prices and Conditions of
 the Past Week.

Kansas City. Mo, Feb. 2S.-Cattle receipts here last week amounted to 35,500 head. 1000 less than the previ- ous week, but 5000 moro than the same week last year. Not many west erns were included. and the market was strong on most classes every day. The best fed steers gained to 15c for the week, along with the best natives. Top steers, westerns, s4.65. Cows and butcher stuff, if good, scld strong, canning stock weak. Stockers and feeders were wanted and prices strong to 10c higher. Fed steers ranged from $3.4O to $4.65, cows $25O to s3.4c. stock CTS and feeders $3.OO to s4.O0. The week generally was satisfactory in the cat tie division, though war prices were not as much in evidence as in the hog division. The run yesterday was 1O,- 900 head and prices on the best fat steers, and stockers and feeders are steady. Medium steers, she stuff and butcher kinds are weak to 10c lower.
 The sheep run at Kansas City last week was 19.200. previous week 16, 800, same week last year 25,6O0 Sheep prices have been strong for two weeks now, including last week. Prices are again near the high point Of the sea- son, and packers show that they want the stuff. The supply yesterday was good at 6,e00. prices averaged steady lambs being a little weak, owing to lack of quality, wethers strong. West ern fed stuff sells now at $5.2566. co for lambs. yearlings up to S5.25, wethers $4.50. ewes s4.20. A few inferior feed S3.15. and some ewes at $2.75.

nine of whom are here. One man was killed while lowering a boat on the Jinsen Maru. Details as ito how the steamers were taken into the entrance of the harbor and sunk are being with held by the sailors, but Lieutenant Saito, who commanded the Jinsen Maru, stated that they got so close to the Russian battleship Retvizan that had they been armed with rifles they could have fired into her crew.
 When they found that the scheme was a failure, they dropped anchors and the crews crowded into the boats. They then blew up the steamers. A strong wind and the glare of the search lights prevented the men from reach ing the torpedo flotilla and at day light they were out of sight of the fleet, having been driven in an east erly direction by the wind to the Mao Tao islands, which they reached the same evening. The boats did not land together, but the men found each other on the islands. They chartered q junk in which they went to Tung Chow Fou. They walked forty miles to Che Foo, going two days without food. The fate of the crews of other steamers is not known by the men here.
 While the Japanese report that their fleet was unscathed in this attack it IS known that two bAttleships and a dis patch boat are missing. It ia learned from two sources that two of the miss- ing warships were taken to Sasebo m q disabled condition. A report is be- ing circulated amongst Chinese that Port Arthur has fallen.
