a SINGLE STATE a VAST EMPIRE

A census of the State of New
York has been recently taken, and
when the totals are figured up it
is expected that they will show a
population of 5000 900. More than
half of this, or about 4, 900, 900, are
claimed for New York City. New
York is a big town. The people
ar so numerous the streets afford
insufficient room, and the people
travel overhead and underground, ,
but still the congestion increases
1t will finally have to resort to
overhead sidewalks. The State of
New York has a larger population
by 100000 than all six of the
New England States. 1t has half
as many people as the entire
Southern Confederacy had. In
1900 about four fifths of the popu-
lation of New York City was of
foreign birth or parentage, and
this percentage has considerably
increased since that time.

Fire in a Lodging House.

The worst fire that has occurred in
Great Britain for many years broke out
in Glasgow, Scotland, yesterday, in
cheap lodgIDg-house for men, in Watson
street, and resulted in the loss of SO lives
and the severe injury of many others.
An extraordinary scene was created
by a procession of almost naked men
rushing out Of the entrance TO the build.
ing, and, against their frantic efforts to
escape, the iremen had actually to fight
for admission.
Reaching the upper floors the fremen
found that the narrow passages we're be.
coming congested with men who had
dropped in the floors overcome by smoke.
The fire, however, was confined to the
fourth floor, and as soon as the firemen
were able to get to work it was speedily
extinguished.
The dead were mostly wOrkmen in the
prime of life. They presented horrible
spectacle, their blackened faces bearing
evidence Of terrible struggles to escape.
Many men were sleeping IN the attic
floor above the burning fourth floor, and
these had narrow escapes. The flames
burst through the floor, and it was i'm
possible for the men TO descend.
The windows were securely fastened
and the men had to break them so that
they could climb through to neighbor-
ing roofs.
1t appears to be the custom of these
dodgers to sleep in a nude condition and
the march of the survivors to the police
station was fantastic one. Some had
snatched the covers of the beds and
others their trousers, while many wore
nothing.
The local authorities had to be called
upon to supply the men with clothing
and warm meals.

One Hundred Persons Drowned.

A dispatch from London says that the
Southwestern Railways crOss-channel
steamer Hilda was wrecked yesterday
morning off St. Malo, on the north coast
of France, and it is feared that 100 or
her passengers and crew were drowned.
The Hilda left Southampton Friday
night for st. Malo with considerably
more than 100 persons on board. Her
passage was greatly delayed by fog
in the channel, and when nearing ST..
Malo she ran into a severe snOwstorm,
seemingly missed her course and found
cred on the rocks of Jardin lighthouse,
three miles from st. Malo. A passing
steamer rescued five OF the passengers
and crew.
The majority of the crew, and pas
sengers were 2sleep at the time of the
accident.
Many bodies have been washed ashore
at different points on the French coast,
some wearing life belts.
Reports received this morning from
various points along the coast, state that
81 bodies of victims of the disaster have
been recovered.
Thirty.six bodies have been washed
ashore at St. Cast, France.

Fire in a DistillerY.

At the A. Oyerholt distilery, in
Bradford, Pa, yesterday SlO,O 900 gal
Ions of whisky furnished a spectacular
fire, entailing a loss of 81, 900, 900. The
main bonded warehouse was burned to
the ground.
A steady northeast wind, which blew
the flames toward the Youhiogheny
river, saved the town of Bradford, the
buildings of the II. G. Frick Coke Com
pany and the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road station from destruction.
The bue-tiuged flames from the burn
ing alcohol assembled more than 100 feet
into the air. As barrels OF old rye
whisky on each of the four floors burst
the blazing liquid was splashed in all
directions. The main track of the rail-
road was kept clear of debris, and
passenger trains shot past at such
speed as to avoid damage from the intense
heat.
1t is supposed that :he fire started
either from spontaneous combustion or
from spark thrown by passing loco
motive down one of the airshafts.
The burned building was one of four
warehouses containing Is, 900 barrels of
whisky eight years old. Each barrel
contained As gallons. The loss is cover
ed by insurance.

Conditions in Russia.

St. Petersburg, Nov. 2O.-The most
noteworthy feature of the strike which
has Just been brought to termination
is that the social democrats have emerged
from the struggle with greater influence
than they expected before the strike was
inaugurated They have shown Count
Witte that the wOrkmen have been
ready for action and increased influence
Baku socialists we're able to make
such a demonstration of force that the
Governor was forced to agree to the
creation OF militia force and the sboli-
ton of martial law.
The Zemstyo congress, now meeting
at Moscow, considers that the success of
the socialists constitutes the most serious
blows struck at Premier White. Pessi-
mists believe that he will resign and
even the most hopeful citizens believe
that he must make decided changes 10
his policy if he is to continue in office.
The strike came to a close today.
WOrkmen everywhere are returning to
their positions.
Warsaw, Poland, Nov. 2O.-Advices
received today from LODI state thst
troops yesterday fired on the people
there, as the result of a revolutionary
demonstration during church service,
killing three persons and wounding one.
While the church service was on in one
of the large churches the congregation
sang revolutionary songs. Troops were
called out and surrounded the building.
The women and children in the church
were ordered to leave and all the men,
numbering about 500, were placed un-
der arrest. A large crowd collected
about the church, and refused to obey
the orders to disperse. The troops finally
fired four volleys into the crowd, with
the result stated.

AT OMAHA last week, Bartlett Rich
ards, president of the American Cattle
Growers Association, and one of the
wealthiest Of the cattle me0, pleaded
guilty to an indictment for fencing gov
eminent range lands, and was sentenced
to pay $500 fine and spend six hours in
the custody of a marshal. His partner,
w. G.. Comstock, made a similar plea
and was given a similar punishment.
Their fences which inclOsed an area as
large as the State of Rhode Island, are
now beirg removed. The penalty was a
farce and caused the culprits not the
least inconvenience, so a repetition OF
the offence may be expected at any time.
These are the lands which Col. j. S.
MosbY three years ago was sent out by
the President to reclaim and dispCssess
the unlawful land grabbers-the cattle
barons. He made his report to Mr..
Roosevelt who directed him to proceed
with the dispossesing act, but before he
could do so Senator DIETRICH and others
now of unsavory reputation, interiered
and Col. Mosby was suddenly trans
ferred to Alabama to look after some
government timber

Draped Font in Mourning.

Rochester, N. Y, Nov. 2O.-Rev. F.
X. Sinclair, rector of St. Peters ana st.
PauPs Roman Catholic Church, in this
city, has selected novel method for
vOicing his protest against race suicide.
A week ago Yesterday, Baptism" was
made the subject of a most pointed ser
mon, and yesterday when the coDgrega-
ton entered the church they found the
baptismal font draped in white and black.
Father Sinclair refuses to discuss the mat
ter at all, but the meaning is significant,
taken in connection with the preaching OF
the sermon referred to and the attention
called to in the fact that there had not
been a single baptism 10 the church for
a period Of six or seven weeks preceding
the drapiDg of the baplismal font.

MONDAY EVENING. NOV. 20. 1905.

ONE OF the Washington papers devotes
considerable space to what 1t regards as
friction between the United States and
Germany, brought about by trade rela-
lions. tariff and the attempts of the
fatherland to eclipse this country in The
South American trade. The writer goes
so far as to make a comparison between the
navy of Germany and that of the United
States, as though hcstilities we're newt
able in the near future. There is every
reason to believe that no such thing
will take place, and many reasons could
be produced to strengthen this stand
point. There is, for instance, too much
at stake for either country to draw the
sword. The commerce of both would be
dealt blow from which they would be
long in recuperating. The United States
has no desire to ia Ike such risk, and there
is every reason to suppose that Germany
would be equally anxious to avoid con-
test. The Kaiser is disposed at times to
be domineering, but it is noticeable
that he knows when to halt, as was
shown in his recent action with France.
Apart from all this, he knows Germany
has enemies who would attempt to profit
at that nations expense should 1t be-
come involved in war with a frst-class
power France would naturally sympa-
thize with the country arrayed against
her old enemy, while England would
give her moral support to the United
States, if nothing more. The article re-
ferred to is intended for purpose an no
one need be alarmed. 1t has been supposed
by many that the greatest conflict that has
ever taken place upon the globe is des-
tined TO occur between the Teutonic and
the English-speaking races for political
and commercial supremacy. Such
thing is possible, but those at the head
of both will count the cost before they
precipitate such war.
