Iroquois theater fire, an emergency
hospital. designed particularly for
the care of women and children, has
been suggested by Richard T. Crane,
Jr., vice president Of the Crane COM

vor, Mr.. Crane believes that whatever
amount of money might be required
to build the hospital could be raised
by popular subscription, perhaps by
the subscription alone of those whose
relatives were among the victims.
''As one whose family sustained

Washington, Jan. 9.-The state de-
partment had several conferences over
the isthmian situation yesterday.
One Of them was at the White
House. In this, the president,
Mr.. Beaupre, the United States
minister to Colombia and Mr..
LOOMS, acting secretary Of state, par
ticipated. Mr.. Beaupre explained
conditions in Colombia, where the
feeling against the United States, he
learned, is very bitter.
Later, Mr.. LOOMS and Mr.. Bunau-
Vanilla, the Panama minister, were
sent for by Secretary Root, who ques-
toned Mr.. Bunau-Varilla closely as
to conditions on the isthmus, the char
acter of the country, the armed force
and the command of the junta, and, in
fact, about everything of a geographi-
cal and political nature, that 1t

Democratic Senators Deny Presidents
Right to Send Minister.

washington, July 9.-There was
two hours debate in executive session
of the senate yesterday over the nomi-
nation of w. I. Buchanan, as minister
to Panama. The democratic senator's,
Morgan, Bacon, Bailey, Pettus and
Blackburn denied the constitutional
right of the president to appoint a
minister to the new republic without
the cooperation of the senate.
Republican senators almost unanf-
mously supported the action of the
president. The principal arguments
on that side of the question were made
by Senators Lodge, Cullom, McComas,
Spooner, Fairbanks and Allison. No
decision was reached.

have been collected, the department
chief will issue such orders as are

In the cases Of two well known
churches in Southeast Minneapolis to

Will Inspect Flats, Too.
Another class of buildings to receive
special attention will be flat and
apartment houses. In the past four
years many fire escapes have been or
dered by the department, particularly
on buildings that are not provided
with front and rear stairways or have
no fire walls or have not the stairways
inclosed in fireproof compartments.
There are several older fiat buildings
that are far from being safe in spite
Of the best efforts of the building in
spection force. There are long rows
of tenements Of the earlier days with
not sign of fire wall to protect any
apartment from fire breaking out in
another. 1t is not believed that the
construction of fire walls could be en-
forced in the old buildings.
Mr.. Houghton does not think that
many Of the flat buildings are dan
gerous. They might prove very com
bustible should fire get start, but all
are provided with ample fire escapes
or both front and rear entrances, so
as to reduce the chance of being
| trapped by fire to a minimum.
