Omaha, Neb., Jan. Boa IRE which
has destroyed property estimated al
approximately 100000 started at 10
o'clock Saturday night from what is
believed to have been an overheated
stove la the commission house OF G.
n. Mullen & Co., located at Eleventh
and Howard streets. The flames spead
SO rapidly that Chief Salter of the fire
department at once turned in a gen.
eral alarm. which brought the entire
department OF the city to the scene,
not, however, until the flames had got
ten quite beyond control. Five com
mission houses were located in the
building where the flames were start
ed, and all of these were enveloped in
very short time.
Across the alley to the north a five
story building occupied by large
manufacturing and jobbing shoe con-
Germ caught in the upper stories and
the fire soon spread to the lower
floors and the entire stock was de-
stroyed.
The block in which the FIRE occur
red was in the wholesale district and
contiguous to it were large number
of stores.
AS soon as the flremen discovered
the building could not be saved, they
turned their attention to adjoining
buildings Despite their efforts, how
ever, the flames continued to spread.
At 1880 the flames had totally de-
stroyed half block of Ave story build
ings containing valuable stocks of
wholesale and retail commission firms,
and at that hour we're burning with in
creased fury. Despite the efforts Oh
the entire fire department, with half a
hundred streams playing on the flames
they continued to spread.
Next to Snyder's commission house
on the north were four other commits
sion houses and the fire had enveloped
those places before streams could be
started on them.

The losses are estimated approxi-
mately as follows: M. e. Smith Dry
Goods company, 100000 on stock; 1--WE

A GENERAL ON SPIT
Court Marital Likely to Be Sequel of
Taqqart Case,

Washington. Oct. ia court martial or
n series of court martials will likely fol-
low the decision of Judge Eason, at Woos-
ter. O.. in the Taggart divorce case.
Charges of Drunkenness were flied by Cen
cral Miner against Major Taggart, and the
decision of the civil court presents charges
against General Miner and Lieutenant
Fortescue. During the divorce proceed
ings the officials of the war department
inclined to The opinion that Major Taggart
could not escape a court marital, expecting
the civil court to decide in favor of Mrs.
paggart. The verdict came as a surprise,
and. While. it viii be. of material assistance
in Major ~Taggart's defense should ne be
tried by court martial, it will not neccs-
sari,,..' prevent his ~arraignment on me
charges filed by Genera Miner.
TIL decision of Judge Fcason seems to
make it necessary to try by court martial
the officers accused by Major Taggart. If
he does not file charges against General
Miner and Lieutenant Fortescue, who were
named us correspondents in the divorce
case the department probably will cause
proceedings to be instituted through the
commanding officer of the department Of

Erie, Pa. Oct. 1S.-Two terrific eNplo.-

city. last night, have cut OFT the sup
ply of all natural gas used for heating
and lighting in the city.

lged 4, is so badly burned that his re-
coVery is douStful.
Mrs. Donovan, his wife, was burned
in escaping from the residence, which,
was wrapped in flames the instant the
gas house exploded. .
The accident was caused through a.
bonfire that the gas tender started inl
his yard to burn a pile of rubbish. He
had thoughtlessly started a fire close
to large supply pipe that conveys
the natural gas from Warren county
to this city, and in which a small leak
let the gas escape so that it cominu-i
nicateG with the bonfire. 4
Rescuers had started to work to sub,
due the flames when a second explosion,
noTe terrible than the first. sent the
gas house into little bits, taking with
it the other big main, which is twelve,
inches in diameter. A dozen people We're
slightly hurt, and the gas burned up
in a blaze that was visible for miles.
The residence of the Donavans was
in flames, n Mrs. Donovan's clothes
We're on fire when she rushed out. She
was rescued by those in the crowd.
AS soon as possible the gas company
had the supply shut off at Belle Wall
ley, eight miles from his city. and no
gas will be furnished for twenty-four
hours.
Luckily the accident happened early
in the evening. and no other accidents
from the sudden cutting Off OF the city
supply have been reported. The dam
age which will amoun to about $685.
GOO, falls entirely upon the Pennsyl-
wanna Gas company, but fou times his
amount will be lost by manufacturing
and business houses using the natural
gas, and thousands of people will suf-
fer from sudden stopping of the supply
of gas, which is used chiefly for cook
Jag and lighting the houses.
Two firemen were injured in jumping
from the roof of the gas tenders house
during their attempt to subdue the
flames. The buildings are two stories
high and they leaped thirty feet to
the ground. They are Edward Franz,
stoker of No. 6 engine company, and
John Weber, minuteman of the same
company. Franz had his arm broken
and Weber sustained internal injuries
through striking a projecting porch.

STAND BY M'CALL.
Majority of Board of New York Life
Insurance Company Will Oppose
Effort 70 Denose Hin,

New York, Oct. 1S.-The directors Of
the New York Life Insurance company
have decided to stan pat by John A..
Mccall, the president of the
No official action has yet been taken
formally to that effect, but the an
nouncement may be accepted as none
the less authoritative that a large ma
jority of the board has Informally re-
solved to sustain Mr.. Mccall, despite
tremendous pressure in the form of let
tiers from policyholders ard resolutions
of various organizations demanding his
withdrawal from the presidency.
This decision does not mean that all
the directors approve or even condone
some OF the acts of the Mccall admin
istration recently made public through
the legislative insurance inquiry. Many
members of the board have professed
surprise and deep regret to learn of
the diversion of money to the republic
can campaign fund on the sole respon-
sibility of MI. Mccall and Geo,g sc w.
Perkins.
Some of the directors, moreover, do
not approve of the methods employed
in GeNoting large sums to the influence
ing of legislation through. Judge
Hamilton. or the lax system or lack of
system whereby Hamilton has been
permitted to hold hundreds of thou
sands of dollars without making any
proper accounting therefor.
Members of the board. however,
maintain that While Mr.. Mccall may
have been guilty of errors of Judgment
and sins OF omission, there has been no
scintilla of evidence to show that he
has in any way profted s~eitishly at the
expense OF the company.
AS regards the political contributions
the directors are inclined to dismiss
the incident as an error OF Judgment on
the part of Mr.. Mccall. In the matter
of the maintenance of Il bureau for the
suppression Of unfriendly legislation
and the expenditure for that purpose
of vast sums without vouchers or de-
tailed a~ecountings, the board is content
to take the view that although the sys-
tern may be pcrnicious MIR. Mccall did
not originate it and did the best he
oould With conditions as he tound hem.
James l{azen Hyde has finally de-
cided to face the insurance investiga-
