two physicians and a nurse, Mrs. Chas.
A. Sweet, wife of a provision merchant

was pronounced dead.

try a salt solution infusion, and there
followed signs of animation. The opera
ton was continued and Mrs. Sweet re-
vived. She has returned to her home in

Terrible Tragedy in a New York
tenement House Fire.

Nineteen persons were burned to death
in a fire which destroyed the tiye-story
tenement house at 105 Allen Street.
New York, early Tuesday. More than
forty We're injured, and only a few of
the sleeping inmates escaped unhurt.
Several of those who persisted were
roasted to death in plain view of thou
sands in the streets.
Coroner Goldenkrantz declared after
an investigation that he had reason to
believe the blaze was the work of an in
cendiary. He issued su~bpoenaes for the
marshal, tenement house and building in
spectors, and health officials to appear
before him at the inquest.
The fire started in the basement and
spread with frightful rapidity to the
roof. The victims were caught i'll traps
of flames, the halls and exits being rem
the blaze started.
The building was one of the usual
crowded tenements, and the disaster was
the worst in the history of the east side.
Chief Croker, of the fire department,
asserts that the police and the tenement
house departments are to blame for the
violation of the fire escape law.
The tenement house department Off
Gals, however, say that the blame is on
the shoulders of the fire commissioner.
OF the nineteen dead, three bodies
those of a boy and two girls-remain I'M
identified.
Thrilling rescues and daring leaps for
life marked the fire. Scores were car
ried from the blazing building by fire.

mons on the charge of polygamy has be-
gun at Raymond, Alberta province, Can

campaign against the Mormons, who
number several thousand, having moved

recently brought two wives from the
United States, whom he is said to have
married in Utah. He declared he is
not living in a polygamous state, but was
given his choice of leaving the country

AT TIE PASS.
Have Reached Final Russian Stra-
tegic Point.

Meager reports have been received
from a Russian source of a fight eight
miles south of Tie Pass between a Rus
sian force under Gen. Mistchenko and
a japanese column, The identity Of which
is unknown. The latter was repulsed, it
is said, with a loss of 1000 killed.
The rumor that after the evacuation
of Mukden eighty foreigners, including
an American newspaper correspondent,
had been murdered by Chinese is dis
credited by the fact that the correspond
ent in question reported TO his paper on
March Ii that he had been captured by
the japanese and was being taken to
Kobe.
A steamer arriving at Singapore re-
ports having passed a squadron of twen-
ty-two Japanese warships about twenty

PEABODY GOVERNOR

1t was more in the nature of a party
than a personal triumph, for both Pea

Adams is a Democrat. Although the
Republican majority on joint ballot is
30, it had been found impossible TO gain
for Peabody enough Republican votes to
reinstate him as governor for the re-

January, 1907. Twenty-Five Republic
al members Of the general assembly, ac-
cording to report, refused to be bound
by any action in caucus on the contest,
and entered into a compact not to vote
for Peabody. A majority of them, how
ever, were in favor of seating the lieu

means could be found to do so legally.
Finally the leaders Of the opposing Re

Ed Williams, charged with burglary in
the first degree, withdrew his plea of
not guilty Wednesday at Elk Point and
substituted one of guilty to burglary in
the third degree.
The change Of plea was brought about
by a consultation between the county at

The trial of the case would ave been
very expensive, as it would have COM

charge. The maximum sentence for this
crime is five years in the states prison.
