FOURTEEN LIVES LOST
 IN A CONVENT FIRE
ONE NUN, NINE CHILDREN AND
 FOUR OLD LADIES. l.

of st. Genevieve Near Montreal
 Heroisn DispIayeI by Nuns--Two
 May Die of Burns.
 Montreal, April 21.-The pretty little village of St. Genevieye is in mourning tonight over the loss of fourteen lives in a fire which destroyed the convent of St. Anne there early to-day. One nun, nine children ranging in age from ten to eighteen years, and four old women perished in the flames. Two nuns were so severely burned that it is feared they will die. Tn their grief over the catastrophe the villagers found some comfort in relating the heroism displayed by Sister Marie Adjuteur, who gave up her life. and Sisters Marie Therese and Marie Robertine, who were perhaps fatally burn ed in their efforts to save the lives of the children and helpless old women in their charge.
 There is no organized fire protection | in the village. The fire which started at an early hour in the morning was beyond control by the time that the sleeping people could be aroused. A bucket brigade was formed, but the eff forts to check the flames were futile, and the quaint old structure was re duced to ashes. Sisters Marie Therese and Marie Robertine were rescued with difficulty from the hallway, where they had fallen, overcome by the smoke and flames.
 Following is a revised list of the dead and injured: Sister Marie Adju- lteur, music mistress, thirty-two years of age; Amanada Garaud of St. Gene- vieve, aged fifteen years; Bertha Tes- sier of He Bizara, eighteen years; Mar lceline Millionaire of Montreal, eleven years; Irene Bertrand, of St. Genevieve eleven years; Adele Robitadlle, of St. Genevieve, nine years: Parmelia Dugas, of St. Genevieve, fourteen years; Elm. ma Tereault, of Montreal, fifteen years; Leoni Daoust, of He Bizara, fifteen years; Eglantine Proulx, of Montreal eleven years; Madame Cardinal, of St Genevieye, aged eighty years; Madame Michael Lalande, Of St. Genevieve, aged eighty-two years; Madame Margarei Poitvin, of St. Genevieve, aged ninety eight years; Madame Robert, of St Genevieve, aged eigllty-eight years; Miss Tessier's parents are in California
 Gnjured:s Sister Marie Therese oi Jesus; Sister Marie Robertine of Jesus both probably fatally injured.
 One of the first to reach the convent after the alarm was sounded was Al 1 phonse Garaud, who lives opposite the convent grounds. He had two daughters in the institution, and his first thought kwas naturally for their safety. Secur- l ing a ladder he raised it at one O the building at a window of the dor mitory where he knew one of his cflil- dren slept When he broke into ths
 window a volume Of smoke poured out
 He secured one girl and minute later the other jumped from an adjoining window. Urged by Sister Marie Adju. teur he ascended the ladder again ant l called out but received no response. IT another instant flames were pouring out of the window and he was compelled te .Iretreat. The convent was the centra feature of the village.

hao Ueuefat Assemni< Nof seen cit-
 ing It Would Have Fallen Upon the
 Governor to Make an Appointment--
 But Two Months Ago Ex-Goveros
 Bulkeley was Elected to Succeed
 Late General Hawley
 Hartford, April 21.-A successor to United States Senator Platt will prob- ably be elected by the general assem- bly, which is now in biennial session. This will be in accordance with law and the election will be for the balance of the term, which will exnire in 1soSS Had the general assembly not been sits ting it would have fallen to Governor Roberts to make an appointment.
 Two months ago the general assemblH \ chose Morgan G. Bulkeley of Hartford to be the successor of Senator Hawleys who retired on March 4. The eiectiod brought to a close one of the greatest political contests ever fought in tha state of Connecticut, and which reach- ed back many years, and which was the underlying current in all the stats campaigns for nearly a decade. No business was transacted In the present general assembly until after the elec- tion of Senator Bulkefey, and the exs citement produced at that time 1aa scarcely died away. It Is expected that there will be several candidates for the vacant seat in the United States sen- ate from this state, but out of respect to the memory of Senator Platt it Is thought probably that the election will be delayed until just after prorogations which in the usual course of events would be in May. With a second senS atorial contest, to be decided it is thought probable that the session will bS considerably heightened.
