Iroquois theater before you opened it"'
Il supposed they would be there"
WAS it not your business as presi-
dent of the Iroquois Theater company
and general manager to interest your
self sufficiently to see that they were
placed there when you had knowledge
the public was to be received?"
Il engaged people for that"
Il asked you whether or not it was
your business to see those things were
there?"
Il engaged people to attend to those
duties and supposed they would do So"
Mr.. Davis was asked if in the ar
rangements of the theater proper he
had ever considered whether the ordi-
nances had been complied with or not,
and replied
Il never knew anything about what
the ordinance demands
when you opened the IroquOis
theater did you consider the building
absolutely fire proof?"
Il did. 1t was the safest building of
the character ever constructed"
Did you take any precautions to
find out whether the theater was safe
or not?
II don't remember that | did. We
had given orders for the best building
of that character that could be put up
and having done SO, and dealing with
reputable firms. we considered we were
getting what we paid for
Did you find out different later?'
THAT Is a matter of common intel
ligence now"
You say you had confidence in your
employees and left the matter of fire pro-
lection to them. To which ones did
you leave it?"
Il could not say any one in partic-
ular."
Mr.. Davis said a few days before
the theater opened he had talked with
Building Commissioner Williams, after
the latter had inspected the theater,
and said that Mr.. Williams declared It
was the safest and most complete
theater building he had ever seen.
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-01-23

that the registration was not made
until after the fire. but denied this.
The Fuller Construction company, he
said, had the contract for putting up
the theater and sublet most of the
work. He was asked by the coroner:
When the theater was opened Nov.
%, was it completed?"
For the purposes of giving a
presentation, L should say yes"
Were there any signs over the exits
designating that they We're exits?"
Il don't know that there We're"
Did you ever see any,"
Il can't say that / did"
Mr.. Davis said he did not know
whether there was fire protection in
the theater or not. When>asked whose
duty is was to see to those things, he
replied:
We'll don't know that | could say"
When asked whose duty it wassto see
that fire eXtinguishers We're installed,
he replied:
I'VE had a fireman there who was
sent to US by the city fire department"
This fireman, he said, upon one occa-
sion, spoke to him about the necessity
of getting some hose, but he never
knew whether or not he got it. He
considered the fireman's duty to make
requisition for all things needed, and
when no requisition was made he took
it for granted that nothing was re-
quired.
do you want to give us the idea
that you placed all responsibility as
to fire appliances upon the fireman.
Mr.. Sallers?"
Il do not want to place the RESPONSE
bility on anybody"
do you not think, as general mana
ger of the Iroquois theater that it was
your duty to see that those fire appli-
ances We're placed there to protect the
public when you were taking the pub
lies money!"
81 had employees there in whom
had every confidence that they would
do what was required of them
Did you not, as an experienced man
know that those appliances were re-
quired?"
Not Informed on Ordinance.
81 don't know what the ordinance
did call for"
Mr.. Davis admitted he was inter-
ested in other theaters in Chicago and
said they were supplied with fire pro-
lection.
"Then, did you not think It was nee
essary to have those appliances in the
The Saint Paul globe., 1904-01-23

that there was installed in the theater
anything that could be used for protec-
tion against fire.
Il understood that those orders were
given by Mr.. Davis" he said.
Mr.. Powers did not know, he said
whether there were signs over the exits
on the opening day. Since the fire he
had understood that there were no
signs over the exits. He knew the law
required such signs, he said, but as as
sociate manager of the theater he felt
that the matter was in the hands of
the Fuller Construction company and
that everything proper would be put in.
The theater had been occupied for
several weeks before the fire, he said,
but he did not really know through all
of those weeks that the exit signs were
not in place. He supposed the placing
of exit signs, he testified a moment
later, was part of the contract for paint
ing.
Mr. Davis was really the executive
head Of the Iroquois theater," he ex-
planned. 'and while | acted as assistant
manager, it was more in an advisory
capacity or in consultation. l knew
everything that was going on through
Mr.. Davis, but l gave no orders" All
orders were given, he said, through
Mr.. Davis or Mr.. Noonan.
Would Mr.. Noonan have the au-
thority and power in case Mr., Sallers
requested anything that he thought
! would be necessary for fire protection
to furnish it without consulting Mr..
Davis?" was asked.
"He would" replied Mr. Powers.
"W7ho did you consider was the man
in charge of the stage?"
'Mr. Cummings"
IF the fireman of the house told him
that it was necessary to get half a
dozen reels of hose, could Mr. Cum
mings go out and purchase that hose?"
Yes, sir"
What was the limit placed on Mr..
Cummings expenditures?
There was no limit placed on them"
Now Davis Is GriIIed.
When Mr.. Davis took the stand he
was first questioned concerning the
formation of the company, which he
declared was New Jersey corpora
ton registered with the SECRETARY of
the state of Illinois, to empower it to
do business in this state. When asked
how long before the fire this registra-
ton had taken place, Mr. Davis said: :
"Oh, several months"
He was asked if it was not fact

RIVERS MUST WAIT
No Appropriation Bill for This
Session.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 22.-The
house committee on rivers and harbors
today decided that there will be no
rivers and harbors appropriation bill
at the present session, although a few
! surveys may be authorized.
In explanation of the postponement
of a bill until next session, Chairman
Burton said:
THE main reason for this action was
the very large balance appropriated for
river and harbor improvements which
is now lying in the treasury uneXpend-
ed This balance at the end Of last
year was in excess of $38 1000. In
addition to this, it is expected that
IS, 100000, or thereabouts, will be ap-
propriated at this session in the sun
dry civil bill for the continuance of
work. on rivers and harbors where i'm
provements are progressing under con-
tinuing contracts.
"a considerable number of COM
plants have been lodged with the
committee because of slowness in pros
ecuting Improvements. In some cases
appropriations were made several years
ago, but nothing has yet been done. III
| others which were provided for in the
bill of June, 1902, the work is scarcely
commenced. The inadequate number
of government engineers engaged in
this branch Of the service, the delay
and difficulty in preparing plans and
securing sites for government works,
and the high prices which have pre-
vailed for several years past, are all
| responsible for this delay.
1T is expected that the committee
will present a bill at very early date
in the next session. In the meantime
some legislation will be recommended
by the committee for the necessary
maintenance of existing public works,
for such general legislation as may be
desired, and perhaps also for the ex-
animation and survey of new projects" J"

strength to trot. That a horse could be taught to understand and act in a very great variety of practical matters is almost as certain as it's comprehension of abstract ideas is doubtful. There is very little doubt that if properly treat ed it is wonderfully capable of under standing what is going on. and of being made to comprehend what it is wanted to do Add to this the fact that the properly domestieated horse is almost as naturally obedient as the cat is dis obedient, and it is difficult to set a limit to it's capacity for training. The only stumbling blocks are, firstly. it's natu- ral nervousness; and, secondly, the pre- ference which Its human employers have that it should be a machine, and not think. This is not the case every where. Tn Australia, for example, the bush horse is very clever animal During a drought when grass was not to be he'd, some horses were noticed standing deep in water hole. and oc- casionally ducking their heads under water. It was then seen that they were bringing up in their mouths weeds which were growing at the bottom of the water.
 Captain Hayes whose recent death has left an irreparable loss in the ranks of those whose acquaintance with horses Is as practical as it is sympathet- ic, but whose books still remain fer consultation, believed most erphatlcal- ly in the quality of equine memory. But he did not confuse memory with reasoning power when quoting the French writer Le Bon, who held that
 If horses were only able to read and ! write they would win in every compe- titive examination, so retentive was their memory of what they had once
 seen. That equine recollection of
 places and incidents is quicker and more precise than that of civilized man
 seems probable from their feats of
 "homing." They are also extremely
 sensitive to the stimulus of punishment.
 The feats which horses will accomplish
 in return for sugar have never been properly investigated We have seen

 call regularly at certain houses in ter race where this dainty was in prospect. Their frequent understanding of the ob- jects of polo and of the lodges useful in the game is well known. The horse seems by nature to be fellow -laboreE with man, and shines most where it is aiding him in the chase, or in herding cattle. dragging trucks on a railway ex- cayation, tipping earth over a bank, or moving timber. The intelligence of the timber-moyers' horses in the use of the rolling-ehain shifting logs. or dragging them on to the timber jim" almost equals that of the elephant in teak yard. Part of their work is due to dis cipline and obedience. But it is impos- sible to watch them at work without seeing that they understand all the de- tails of the business.-London Spectator.
