HOTEL
 ON FIRE.
One Woman Burned
 To Death.
A Number of Guests Had to Flee in Their Night Cloth- ing-The Dead Woman is from Philadelphia.

New York, Feb 17.-One woman was burned to death and fifteen other men and women narrowly escaped in fire which damaged the Hotel Win ton, at the corner of 10th street and Park avenue to-day.
 The dead woman, from cards found in the room she occupied, is believed to have been Miss Lydia Themel, of 1929 Montgomery avenue, Philadel- phia. She was about 30 years old. Those who escaped from the hotel re- fused their names. The fire started in room on the second floor of the hotel and when the firemen arrived flames were bursting from windows in the upper stories. Fifteen men and wo- men were driven out into the streets in their night clothing and it was be- lieved that all escaped until the body of Miss Themel was found after the fire had been extinguished. Her body was found lying in hallway where she had been overcome by the smoke and flames. She, was badly burned and died before a physician reached her: The loss on the building was about $4OOO.

London. Feb 1.-The mystery sur rounding the disappearance of Major Harry Pakenham while on his honey moon at Folkestonc.

Miss Markham. sister of the late Lady Annesley. and was staying with his bride at a hotel in Folkestone. Three days after the marriage Major Paken ham went out for a stroll. telling his wife that he would not be long. The next day his overcoat was found in the hartor and note in q pocket said he was sick and saw no prospect of getting better. Major Pakenham con- tracted enteric fever during the South African war.

JUDICIARY BUSY.
A Number of Bills Were Given Hear.
 ings This Morning.

Hartford, Feb 1.-The judiciary committee of the legislature to-day granted number of hearings on bills before it, in order to expedite busi- ness. The interest appeared to center Tn three bills introduced by Senator Phelan of Waterbury, relating to the commitment of children to charitable institutions. The three bills were heard together.
 The nrSt one concerns the commit ment of children to St Francis Or phan asylum in New Haven by any judge of probate court. justice of a city or borough court, or justice of the peace.
 The second one gives authority to the overseers of the poor to commit children under four years of age to any chartered orphan asylum.
 The third one gives the power to the governor. now held by the trustees of the Connecticut school for boys and the trustees of the Industrial school for girls in Middletown. in the remov- al of children in those institutions to any chartered institution.
 The substance of the amendment is that Catholic children now sent to in- stitutions receiving state aid may be sent to Catholic institutions. The only opposition developed was on the last bill. when the trustees of the institu- tions above mentioned. objected to giving the power to the governor to remove children from those institu- tions to sectarian schools.

and the brigade came under a cross fire but held out until I got up another 1 brigade to cover its retreat The Japanese were now concentrating on their left. During the evening of Jan
 uary 20 and my army were ordered under no circumstances to fall back from our positions The next morning my whole front was engaged, the troops being disposed as follows: | "On the extreme right the first corps. Then the first rife corps and the fifth division of the second corps
 which had just arrived from Russia. | Altogether I had 62 battalions. The enemy had twice as many.
 ''The battle of January 26 was con- tinued until the evening. We did not surrender an inch of ground. My left flank which was clearing the road to Sandepas being weak I asked the | commander in chief who had 60 battal- ions available, for reinforcements. He 1 declined to send any, apparently taking the Japanese demonstration at the cen ter as being a general advance. Never. | theless I decided to storm Heikoutai the next day. All the surrounding will lages were already in our hands. Early January 27 the fiercest fight ing occurred. We again held our own. The road to Sandepas, the Japanese point of concentration, was quite clear of the enemy. I therefore again ap' pealed to the commander-in-chief for achievements. If he had listened to my entreaties we would have riven the iron ring of 100000 of the enemy. The Japanese being menaced by strong force of Russian cavalry from the south and southwest. evidently real ized the danger of tackling us. In des- peration January 2S they four times desperately assaulted our outer posi-, tions and were beaten off each time in such brilliant fashion that it does my heart good to remember the gallantry or my brave comrades.
 q might easily have followed up these repulses by headlong offensive, but l was tied down by the comman, der-in-chief's restrictions and his re- fusal to send me achievements. How anxiously I awaited a reply on both subjects! Just think of what victory meant! Complete victory was in our grasp. The loss of thousands of lives was not dreadful before such a result.
 "The reply of General. Kuropatkin arrived at 5 in the evening in the shape of an order to leave small force in our positions and move up the army to his support in view of the expected Japanese advance on the center. How was it possible for the Japanese to at tack the center when all their available forces were diverted west?
 Tt is impossible to describe the i'm pression produced upon me by the order. At first I was afraid to com municate it to my victorious army. but there was nothing else to do. We re treated during the night of January 29 with tears in our eyes and bitterness in our hearts. It was then that de. cided that my presence at the theater of war was no longer possible and the next day handed in a report to the commander.in-chief demanding my relief"

 The Transport Logan.

San Francisco, Feb 17.-Oriers have been issued from the war department appointing a board to investigate and report on an alleged shortage of the accounts of Captain Jacques de La fitte, quartermaster of the transport Logan. now in this port.
 This board. it is stated by Captain Lafitte's friends. is appointed at his own request. as he is held responsible for the funds. and he asserts that there is T shortage in funds which were be- yond his control. It is necessary that the quartermastPr of each transport take SJ0.OJo or S6O00 in his safe on each trip. as all payments of employees must be made in specie. On the re- turn trip from Manila Captain Lafitte was i'll and confined to his bed most Of the way across.

GEN GRIPENBERG ARRIVES.

St Petersburg. Feb 1.-The arrival In St Petersburg of General Gripen- berg. former commander of the Sec ond Manchurian army, who reached here at midnight. has caused a good ieal of q sensation in military circles. The general frankly avows that he relinguished his command after the recent attempt of the Russians to flank Field Marshal Oyama because ss he claims General Kuropatkin re- fused to send him help when victory was in General GriDenberg's hands Instead of ordering the latter to with iraw. Gripenberg will personally re- port on the situation to Emperor Nicholas It is too early to say what the result will be. although it is evil lent that Kuropatkin's enemies are pushing their campaign against him. Ii is only fair to Kuropatkin to say that his friends claim that Kuropat- kin's side of the story is that he only intended to make a demonstration in force and that Grinenberg pressed the attack too far and became too much involved
 In an interview GriDenberg said:

Conference Being Held at New York To.Day-Neither Side Willing To Discuss the Standardization Reached By Directors Committee Eut Will Be Given Out Until Given To Bremen, First

New York, Feb 1.-The sub-commit- tee of directors of the New York, New
 Haven and Hartford railroad. appoint, ed to consider grievances presented by the Firemen's organization, will meet here to-day. \ committee representing the engineers association will be given hearing at this meeting, and after-
 ward, it is understood, the Sub-comlnit>
 tees decision in the dispute will be presented to the tiremen. Neither the officials of the road nor the labor lead. CTS would discuss the probable out come should the committees decision be unfavorable to the tiremen. A re- port was circulated to-day that former Detective Sergeant Vallely, who re- tired from the New York city detective bureau a few days ago, had been ap-
 pointed chief of detectives for the rail road company. Vallely made request
 by telephone for retirement after con. ference with officials of the railroad company.
 Of the 1 400 members of the Brother hood of Locomotive Bremen who are employed by the New York, New Ha.
 ven and Hartford railroad, there are pop W uo ldNC pCeu plOluOlcu to cISliit drivers, but who have retained their
 membership in the firemen's organiza- ton. Each of the two brotherhOods, firemen and engineers. has an agree
 ment with the railroad company by
 which disputes between the company and the organization are to be settled by conference of committees represent ing the respective organizations. The tiremen's brotherhood demands that the 300 engineers who are members of their brotherhood shall be represented
 by committee in all negotiations with
 the company. The company contends that to grant this demand would be to violate its agreement with the Broth erhod of Locomotive Engineers.
 The committee of directors repre- sonting the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers went into conference at 11:1o
 when J. Pierpont Morgan arrived. The subcommittee of the directors
 adjourned at 1:50. It was announced 1 that decision as to the company's
 position on the demands of the fire
 men had been reached, but would not
 be made public until communicated to
 the firemen. Secretary John G. Par
 ker of the company will communicate
 with the firemen at New Haven and
 will leave for that city at 3 o'cldCk to-
 day. He said he hoped to make
 known the committees decision before | the close of the day.
