LOUISIANA AVENUE FIRE.
Nothing Can Be Learned to Indicate
Origin of the Blaze.

thousands of persons have visited the
s.ara NJ the fire on Louisiana avenue since
Yesterday morning and viewed the runs

structures in which the fire occurred, put
the fourth building did not sustain mueh
damage Fire department officials remained
about the scene of the fire until late In the
afternoon and did the best they could to
ascertain the origin OF the blaze. This morn
ing the fire marshal told Star reporter
that the fire had apparently started about
the middle of the store of z. II. He!5kel.
IT.. but he was unable TO determine what
caused It. He was surprised at the report
that the fire had been caused by electric
wires in the front of the building. The re-
port stated that the spark from the wires
had caused the awning to take fire and the
blaze was communicated to the store.
After making a more careful estimate OF
the damage caused by the flames he placed
the total amount of the losses at SOL 100
exclusive OF the small amount of damage
caused to the Majestic Tbeater property.
The damage 10 the buildings WAS placed at
$4,000 and to the stock at S33, 100. Fire
Marshal Nicholson found the two colored
men who discovered the fire and was salts
fled from what they said that the fire did
not originate from the electric light wires
on the front OF the building. This morning
the fre department received call for a
company TO go TO the ruins and extinguish
blaze in a pile of hay and feed. Water
was poured upon the mass OF ruins and the

Health Of the Army.
The health of the Russian army is large
1y due to the simple and peculiar diet Of
the soldiers. which is ideal from a military
point of view. Everything they eat. ex-
cept bread. is boiled. and their food is TAX
en- largely In liquid form. They drink a
great deal OF tea, which satisfies their
thirst. and. therefore. they get along with
little water. as compared with other armies.
Their food is most often in the form of
soup. and the process of boiling sterilixes
the material used and thus reduces to a
minimum the dangers OF Infection. The Of
ficial meat ration per day is pound OF
beef for each man, and they got 1t until re-
cently-until the meat supply of Manehu-
ria was nearly exhausted. Then they were
given more vegetables and less meat. Con-
trary to the popular impression, all the
supplies OF the Russian army-except sugar
and other groceries-have been obtained
from Manchuria, which is very fertile and
capable of sustaining a large army. The
crops this year were sufficient to support
million men,"

SIZE OF TIE ARMY
LEFT OVER 1,ooo, 900 SOLDIERS IN
MANCHURIA.
Remarkable Work of the Railway in
Transporting the Troops--High
Percentage of Casualties.
BY WILLIAM E. Curtis.

BY WILLIAM F. CURTIS.
Written FOR The Star and the Chicago Record
Herald.
Col John Van r. Hoff of the medical
corps of the United States army has just
returned from Manchuria where he was
sent by order of the President to observe
the work of the medical department of the
Russian army, and is now preparing his
report Col. Hoff makes some surprising
statements. He says that when he left
Hardin in October there were altogether
1.o52G00 Russian soldiers still in Manchuria,
and that two full army corps of 10000 men
. each were then on their way. making a
total of 1,132O00 Russian soldiers In Man
churia yet, for there is no evidence that
any have been sent home. The popular
impression has been that the Russian forces
did not exceed half million men all told
Col. Hoff also says that the Siberian rail-.
road is capable of handling twenty trains
that Is, ten each way-per day--each carry
ing thousand men. so that it will not
take so long as many have supposed to
evacHate Manchuria. This. however. Col.
Hon says. is a general statement and does
not mean that 10000 men are shipped every
day or that they have been or ever will be.
The Russians carry their soldiers in
freight cars" said the colonel, IAN average
OF forty men to car and from thirty to
thirty-five cars to train.'' The officers
have what We would call ordinary passen-
ger coaches. IT usually takes eight weeks
for train of soldiers to make the trip OF
$3.50 miles from MOSCOW to Hardin. They
carry few supplies. There are many COM
missary stations en- route, and the trains
make frequent stops for the soldiers to rest
and feed and take exercise.
Work of the. Railroad.
The manner in which the Siberian rail-
road has handled the troops during the war
has been very remarkable" continued Col.
Hoff. When war was preciptated the
Russians were absolutely unprepared They
did not expect war. We have the best of
authority for believing that there were mr.
more than 10000 Russian troops in Man
churia. and the only way to~get reinforce
ments was to bring them across the con-
tnent over singie-track road twice as
far as from here to San Francisco Nor
was the road completed at Lake Baikal.
Everything had to be transferred by ferry
ana In winter, when the ice was several
feet thick, sledges were used instead. At
one time the train crossed over tracks laid
on the ice. and a large part of the army
marched across through the snow At the
border of Manchuria tunnel had been
commenced through the Kinghau range OF
mountains, but It was not finished, and dur
Ing the earlier part of the war everything
had to be hauled over the pass on almost
prohibitive grades. The trains had to be

WIFE MURDER WAS BRUTAL.
Albany Police Cleared Up Mystery of
Woman's Death.

The Albany IN. " police believe they
have a complete case against missing John
Hammond. the twenty-four-year-o car
pen;er, the body of whose fifty-seven-year.
old wife was found Thursday in trunk in
their fat In that city.
: James Mangini of Cohoes the husband OF
Hammond's sister, was taken into custody
there yesterday and brought to Albany. and
he has confessed to the police OF both
cities that on Tuesday, November IA, two
days or more after the murder must have
been committed, he accompanied Hammond
from Cohoes to Rouses Point, and that on
the Journey Hammond, who. he says, was in
a condition bordering on nervous collapse
told him that he had killed hts wife and
hidden her body III q trunk.
afangini Is being held both as a witness
and as accessory after the fact of the muir
der He says also that Hammond made q
like confession on the 18th to an uncle al
fiouses Point. Tho police say they are con-
sfident that Hammpnd Is In snr near. Mon
treal. and that he VIII soon be arrested.
The autopsy upon the woEnans body has
shown that the wSirnan was slrangled with
great violence. and that before death she
was brutally beateii or kicked. There seems

Toward Great Falls.

Already a subdivision has been made of
a tract of land near the northern end of
the line, which has been called Livingston
Heights, deriving its name from Mr. Colin
H. Livingston, the confidential man of Sem
ator Elkins, who is one of the owners Of
the electric. road. Mr.. Livingston has
bought the tract of land and subdivfded it
into building lots and when people can
get to 1t, as will be the case when the
railroad is completed, then it is expected
there will be good market for the prop
erty. The same belief is held in regard to
the properties all along that line of the
road. In respect to settlement it may be
said that this is virgin region.

abruptly and after that no sound was
heard from the Hammond apartments
It was learned yesterday that November

from the savings bank. at first receiving a

it for cash. Important in this connection
Is the fact that ON November ID a man de-

An addition Of consequence is to be made
In the near future to the business build
ings on G street Mr.. Thomas F. Walsh
has just bought from T. A. Harding, trus-
tee. through Mr.. T. A. Wickersham, his
representative in such matters, the large
piece of property on the north side of G

adjoining on the west Epiphany Church
The ground has a frontage Of fifty feet
