The Dovetail Box Machine company
plant, Como avenue and Claghorn
street, was badly damaged by fire last
night. The flames were discovered
coming through the roof by pedes-
trian shortly after o'clock and an.
alarm turned in. When the engine
companies arrived the fire had spread
over the upper part of the building and
it was impossible to save the two up
per stories. The fremen devoted their
attention to confning the flames to
that part Of the building and after two
hours work succeeded in getting the
fire under control. The roof fell in,
but the walls are standing. The origin
of the fire is unknown. The machinery
is badly damaged by fire and water.
The building was a, three-story frame
and was formerly occupied by the

the promoters proposed to grow to-

JUDGES OF BASEBALL
COMMENCE SESSION
Minor League Matters Are Dis
cussed in the
Meeting

CINCINNATI, Jan. AT a long ses-
Sion of the National baseball commission
today various pending differences with
the National Baseball Association of the
Minor Leagues, including many differ
ences which had been previously discuss
ed. but never brought squarely before the
commission. The serious Illness of Pres
1dent Pulliam, of the National league,
for time threatened to compel a post
ponement of the meeting for an indefinite
period, and then when it had, been agreed
to accept his proxy, as presented by
Chairman Hermann, the failure of the
National association to acquieSce in four
decisions of the commission affecting
minor leagues seemed to hinder any ac-
ton by the commission on matters of
interest to the association. Chairman
Hermann presented his annual report
when the meeting was called to order,
this being his first report since the or
ganization of the commission in 1904.
He reviewed the work of the commission
mendations, many of little general inter-
est, but many of Importance to baseball
patrons. During the sixteen months
covered by the report 110 cases have been
adjudicated, all but four of which have
been accepted by the parties in interest,
and the rest are still pending. OF his
ten recommendations several referred to
clearing the meaning of disputed sections
OF the national agreement, but the most
important was that in regard to fictitious
dealing or covering up of players.
He called attention to the necessity for
revision of this provision, but left the
method to the commission. Chairman
Hermann called attention to the fact
that any action taken by the commission
looking to revision of the national
agreement would be only advisory, as
changes could only be made with the
unanimous approval of the National and
American leagues and the National as
sociation.
Two decisions were announced during
the afternoon, Catcher Sullivan was
awarded to Detroit and Fielder Jones to
Washington In the Roach case, affect
ing that players connection with the
Butte, Mont, club, the minor organiza-
tion finally acquieseed in the decision
that the player had signed reserve
contract and was therefore subject to

Cossacks patrolled the streets, reserves

and the guard regiments were retain

met by a charge of Cossacks, who US

nasty injuries.
There was a similar incident on
