WILLIAMS WINS HIS
 POlk FUR HEARST
BAY STATE COMMITTEE AGAINST
 UNIT RULE
New Workers Followers Consider it mn Important concession But There is Nothing to Prevent Olney Delegates from Presenting Resolutions at Con- vention To-day Committing Delegates Chosen to tile Rule.

vention To-day Committing Delegates
 Chosen to tile Rule.
 Boston, April 2O.-A spirit of conces- sion to the supporters of William R. Hearst was manifest at to-night's meet ing of the democratic state committee called to perfect arrangements for to- morrow's state convention, at which four delegates-at- large and four alter mates to the national convention will be chosen.
 The friends of Richard 0lney claim ed. however, that the convention would advocate Nh. Olneys nomination for the presidency by selecting delegates pledged for him. It was predicted to- night that, in spite of the evidences of harmony which appeared, the conven- tion itself would not be altogether har- monious
 The Hearst men, headed by George Fred Williams, won what they consider an important concession from the state committee when that body voted against the embodiment of the unit rule in the call for the convention. The in- corporation of the unit rule in the call would mean that the convention reserv- ed the right to say how all the delegates to the national convention would vote. MT. Williams claimed that the part of the convention call which declared that the election of district delegates was subject to the action of the state con- vention had never been authorized, and that it had been subsequently, inserted illegally by former Mayor Josiah Quin- cy, of this city. It appeared that the call had originally been sent out with out the words to which Mr. Williams objected, and it was voted that the call as first issued should stand as the legal call for the convention.
 i Although the Hearst men won their point before the committee there is nothing to prevent the Olney delegates 1 from presenting resolutions tomorrow committing the convention to the unit rule. MT. Williams said tonight that if such resolutions were passed they would be illegal and any attempt to bind the district delegates would be laughed at In St. Louis.
 Late tonight the Hearst supporters sent a committee to the state commit tee suggesting that places be accorded the former on the different convention committees. The suggestion was ac- cepted and committees with two rep resentatives of the Hearst faction or each were drawn up. As one os the committees is that on resolutions, it is expected that a platform will be pre- sented at the convention. It had beer announced that no platform would be adopted.

BIG FIRE LAST NIGHT
 IN CHAPEL ST. FACTORY
G E. BROOM COMPANY AND
 BRADLEY MFG. COMPANY

Losers to the Extent of $S0,000--Loss on Building Estimated at s25,000--Firc- men Put Up Great Fight but Are Un- able to Save the Property-Buiidins Used as Army Barracks in Civil Wax
 Time-Destroyed Once Before.
 As a fitting close to one of the hardest days the local fire department has put in in long time. a double alarm from box S5 at S:45 o'clock last night called out the department to fight a stubborn blaze in the building at the corner of Chapel and Hamilton streets, occupied by the New England Broom company and the Bradley Manufacturing com pany.
 The building is six-story one and is owned by J. s. Bradley and F. c. Boyd, both of this city, and both of whom are interested in the Bradley Manufactur- ing company. The latter company oc- cupied the three upper stories of the building, while the New England Broom company rented the two lower floors
 ] The estimated value of the building 1 is $25, ,0OO; partly insured. The Bradley Manufacturing companys loss is be- tween $S,0OO and s10,0OO also partly in sured. The Broom company's loss is estimated at about s200O0 and is fairly well protected by insurance held by J. c. Kerrgan.
 1 The fire was discovered by Nicholas Mooney, night watchman employed by the Demarest company, who saw flames Ileaping up the elevator shaft near the third floor and who turned in the alarm. When the department arrived the flames were leaping from the upper stories of the building and it looked as though the building was doomed. When l Chief Fancher arrived he ordered an- ether alarm sent in, as the engines on the scene were unable to cope with the 1 fire
 The department got to work in short order and soon had eight streams on the fire. No. 7's engine, under Captain Redmond, had a remarkably strong stream, which did excellent work. The police maintained good fire lines and kept the crowd moving assisted by sew. eral streams of water which drenched ! everybody in sight.
 The fire was got under control about midnight, some of the engines playing on the ruins until this morning. Owing to the fact that a large amount of eel luloid was stored i'll the building explo- sions were feared and no fireman was i allowed to enter the building. It was l thought at one time that the wall on Hamilton street would fall. SO engine 4 No 8. which was stationed alongside of the building at this point, was removed to Chapel street.
 The building during the civil war was used as a barracks for soldiers and was gutted by fire a few years later and re- built by Durham, Booth & Wooster. carriage manufacturers. It was after wards occupied by the Sagwa Bitters company. The National Cash Register company occupied it, but this company was absorbed by the trust and the
 building passed into the hands of the present owners, who have just refitted 4 it at a large expense.
 The fire was witnessed by thousands,
 who congregated from all over the citys
 All trolley traffic through Chapel street at this point was stopped during the \ fire.

Fountain Tree of the CONGO.

A French explorer, M. Henri Le-
comte, recently returned from the
Congo, tells some curious details of a
fountain tree. it grows to a great
height and usually in damp places.
The trunk is regular and provided
with large branches, which bear finely
dissected leaves. 1t is divided at the
base like the mangrove. and enters
the earth through a large number of
ramifications. When the tree is cut
at a height of about FIVE feet from
the ground. large quantity of water
is observed to flow from this section.
NJ. Lecomte cut one at this height
that had diameter of twenty inches.
and then, forming gutter along the
trunk, placed pail at the base. The
next morning the pail, which held
nine quarts. had overlooked. The
water is drinkable, though it is rich
in chlorldes and other salts.
