THE LENA'S FINISH
She's to Be Disarmed and
Held Here Till the
Wars Over.
(By the Associated Press)

Washington, d. c.. Sept. 15.-Act-
ing Secretary of State Adee today gave
out the following statement regarding
the Russian ship Lena, now at San
Francisco:
The President has today issued an
order, through his acting Secretary
of State, directing that the Russian
armed transport Lena, now at san
Francisco, be taken in custody by the
naval authorities of the United States
and disarmed. The main features on
the conditions prescribed are that tina
Lena be taken to the Mare Island
Navy Yard and there disarmed by re7
moVal of small guns, breech blocks of
large guns, small arms, ammunition
and ordnance stores and such othen
dismantlement as may be prescribed
by the commandant of the navy yard;
that the captain give a written guar
antee that the Lena Will not leave San
Francisco until peace shall have been
concluded; that the officers and crew
shall be paroled not to leave Gan
Francisco until some other understand
ing as to their disposal may be reached
between the United States government
and both the belligerents; that after
disarmament the vessel may be re7
moved to private dock for such rea-
worthy and preserve her in good con-
Gition during detention, or may be so
repaired at the navy yard If the Rus
sian commander should so elect; that
while at a private dock the command
ant of the navy yard at Mare Island
shall have custody of the ship and the
repairs shall be overseen by an engin-
Ger officer to be detailed by the com
mandant and that, when so repaired
| if peace shall not then have been con-
Guided. the vessel shall be taken back
to the Mare Island Navy Yard and
there be held in custody until the end
of the war.
This action has been taken upon the
written request of the commander OF
the Lena, addressed to Rear Admiral
Goodrich, setting forth that as the YES
sci is incapable of putting to sea with
out needfu repairs she must disarm,
and asking that needful repairs be pei
mitted after disarmament.
The Secretary of the Navy has tele-
graphed the Presidents order to San
rancisco and given instructions to Ad-
miral Goodrich and to Captain Mccall
Ia the commandment of the Mare Island
Navy Yard to carry out it's provisions.

It IS the only preparation the market

claim to do these singly. That is, there are

a disordered condition of the liver invariably
induces kidney disorders and pollutes the
blood, to merely tone Up the liver does not

Toronto, Ont, April 2O.-Fire has
swept through a section of Toronto's
wholesale business district, causing q
loss which it is estimated will be S1O.-
100000. The fire started in a factory
In Wellington street about 8 o. NJ.
In less than an hour the flames had
spread from building to building on
both sides of the street until the whole
block was mass of flames and the
fire was utterly beyond the control Of

sent to every surrounding city where
fire apparatus could be obtained, ask
ing for assistance Montreal, London,
Hamilton and Buffalo at once respond

Firemen's Efforts Fruitless.
1t was believed at IL p. m. that
the fire was under control, but a sud-
den shift in the wind again Tanned
the flames into roar, and clouds of
sparks and burning brands were car
r1ed down side streets until three en-
tire blocks were doomed. The fire
men were making gallant fight amid
The falling buildings and a mass Of
tangled wires, but their efforts at midi
night seemed to be fruitless.

Chief Thompson, of the fire depart

tread, were cut off by the flames while
directing the work Of firemen from
roof. Thompson jumped six stories
to the ground and miraculollsly es-
capped with a broken leg. A mass Of

of the fire-fghters stopped the flames
there, but in the meantime the fire had
swept across the street and the block
of buildings from Bay street west to

At that time the firemen believed
that the fire was under control, but
shift in the wind sent the flames roar
Ing down Bay street, destroying every
building ON both sides of the street
from the National club to Front street.
Nothing could resist the force of the
flames as they swept down Bay street
towards the lake, and the firemen
fought back the fire from side streets,
combining the fire zone to the one thor
oughfare wherever possible Several
frame buildings which threatened to
cause spread Of the fire were blown
UP with dynamite.
At 1:30 this morning Bay street was
on fire from Wellington street down
to the lake front, but the fremen
were meeting with success In their
efforts to prevent a further spread and
it was believed the fire would burn
itself out there. At 3:15 a. m. the fire
was still burning fercely in the two
blocks on Wellington street Firemen
had arrived from London Hamilton

at this hour that the fire was prac-

A WOMAN'S SCREAMS.
They Frightened Away a Burglar
Last Night.

Mrs. Charles R. Love who lives at
the corner of Thirteenth and Van
Buren, streets had an exciting exper-
fence with a, burglar last night. She
was awakened and instinctively felt
that there was some one in the room.
She looked carefully about the room
but saw no one until she arose in bed
and then she noticed a figure crouch
ing close to the floor Mrs. Love
screamed and the man ran out of the
room and down stairs. She ran after
the burglar and was near him when he
ran out the back door and slammed it
behind him. The only thing the fam
lily missed as result of the visit was
a pair of cuff buttons.
It is supposed that the same man
entered the home of J. W. Edmonds at
1920 Van Buren, street earlier in the
evening. Some one entered through
the back door which was left unlocked.
The burglar stopped in the kitchen
long enough to eat a. hearty meal be-
fore he searched the house. He ran
sacked several pairs of Edmonds
trousers and secured a. small sum of
money. His pocketbook was found this
morning near the Love residence and
it is supposed that the same man en-
teced both houses.
