Chicago, October 26.-Refusng to stand for President Roosevelt's plan for the settlement of the rate position, large number of delegates to the interstate commerce law convention were barred from the convention of that organization today and thereupon held separate meeting to give expression to their ideas on the subject The original convention was held in Steinway hall, while the ..anti" convention met in Music, or Stude- baker. hall, several blocks distant
 Aware of alleged attempts to tlwart the purpose of the convention, the dele- gates at Steinway hall resolved to admit no delegates, although properly accred- ited, unless they would agree to sup port the Presidents rate plan. These delegates objected to the procedure, de- manding they be given the right of free speech, while the opposition charged they were sent by the railroads and other al legged unfair interests to pack the con- vention A number of exciting scenes fol- lowed before the meetings were called to order in the conventions on both sides The number of delegates at each conven- ton was about equal, ranging between 400 and 300. Speeches, organization and resolutions took up the time of the first meetings of the conventions. The con- yentons will continue in session tomor- row, when resolutions will be adopted in the Stenway hall advocatinig the Presi- dents policy.

MANY PERISH IN
 HOT SPRINGS FIRE Frame Hotel Makes Easy Work
 for Flames
ALL ESCAPE WAS CUT OFF
Several Saved Themselves by Jumping and 1t Is Believed Others May Have Been Burned
 Entirely.

Little Rock, October 26.--A special to the Gazntte from Hot si&ings says: X
 The worst hotel fire in local history occurred early this morning when the railroad mems hotel. located block be- low the Iron Mountain railroad depot on Elm street, was destroyed.

 A. L. Mann, railway conductor, Dem yer, Col
 Mrs. Mack, pianist. city.
 Ed. Snyder, hotel porter.
 Harry Bradley, waiter, Little Gem restaurant.
 IF. Roberts Tacoma, Wash. John McLeon, Austin, Tex.
 Frank Overton, badly burned. but will probably recover.
 The structure was two-story frame building and the flames spread rapidly cutting off escape by hallway both up and down stairs. The cracking and falling timbers awakened Steve Malcolm, pro- prietor, who gave the alarm to his sleep ing guests the best he could. All escapes being cut off, the occupants jumped out of the second story windows, and those who were injured in this manner were:
 James Strickland, Venice, Ill.,; William Strong, Rock Creek, Ark Some Perish In Bed The fire department searched the ruins for other victims but no more were dis covered Mann was a helpless paralytic. but the position of his body showed that he had attempted to escape. The position of two bodies showed that they smother ed to death while they slept. Mrs. Mack came to the window. was told to jump, but refused and perished Three of the bodies were burned beyond recognition. and the six bodies laid out at the morgue were a sickening spectacle, and viewed by hundreds of people. Malcolm did not keep a register, but stated he lodged thir- ], ty-f1ve persons last night, many being | cripples or invalids in reduced circum- stances. The fire is thought to have been caused by a lamp exploding, but in- | cendiarism is now suspected Those who escaped were housed at the city hall after l the fire until clothing could be provided, none having had time to get even wear | ing apparel.
