and thousands hurried to the neighbOr

ment were directed to keeping the fire
within the limits Of the quarter square
which was destroyed, as the flames had
spread rapidly on account of the in1am
mable material in the buildings. The
explosion of chemicals in the Keifer and
DeImetch house with the accompanying
bursts of flames made the fire the moss
spectacular in the history of the city.
Falling walls at intervals added to the
danger incurred by the firemen, one OF
whom suffered a broken leg by piece OF

There were many narrow escapes from
death.
The fire was confined to the burned

Sparks from the burning buildings flew
over the city, carried by high wind.
These sparks fell on buildings and men
were stationed on roofs all over the city
to protect them. Smouldering sparks
fell on the roof of the Grand hotel ana

lowed. Guests at the hotel were

watching the adjacent fire in the whole
sale district. The fire on the roof of the
Grand hotel was extinguished after ar
hour of hard work by the department.
The loss was caused for the most part
by water and reached $4,000. The nights
result of the flames work was the most
damaging in the history of the city.

TRIED TO EXToRT.
Iron Molder Endeavored to "Bleed"
Austrian Official.

The secret service has arrested Ignace
Wenzler, iron molder, at Lebanon, Pa. for
using the United States mails to extort
money from Count Won TIA, the former
prime minister of Austria-Hungary. Wenz-
Ter had read in the newspapers good deal
about the black hand" He wrote letter
to the prime minister saying that the
''black hand" of this country was about to
kill the relatives of the minister, and could
be prevented from doing SO only by paying
$1,000. The letter was forwarded to the
Austro- Hungarian embassy here and was
turned over to the secret service, which
took charge of the case.
Not having received anything satisfactory
to his first letter Wenzler wrote another.
saying that the man who would do the
murder had been selected and that the
money must be paid at once. This letter
was also sent to the secret service.
One Of the officers of the secret service
succeeded In getting Wenzler to write q
letter In German on another subject. and
In this way comparison of the handwrit-
ing was secured. WenZler was arrested at
Lebanon, Pa, this afternoon, and being I'M
able to give bail was taken to the Jail at
Harrisburg, and he will be indicted by the
grand jury.

THE SENATE PROGRAM.
During the Present the Statehood Bill
Will Be the Leading Topic.

The joint statehood bill will continue to
be the principal topic of discussion in the
Senate during the present week. but other
measures will receive attention each day
during the morning hour. including the om-
nibus claims bill, for which Senator Warren
stands sponsor. The bill comprises more
than 200 pages, but the senator already has
put large and important part OF the work
Of consideration to the rear. There will be
an effort made to get through the bill pro-
viding for the compensation of American
fishermen whose vessels were seized prior
to the arbitration of 1898. This measure is
in the hands of Senator Fulton, who will
press 1t as an act of justice to men who he
thinks have been Disseminated against
The pure food bill will remain In the back
ground for the present, not because the
friends of that measure have abandoned 1t,
but because they consider that its chances
will be improved by not pressing for imme-
diate consideration. They have been as
sured by the republican leaders that the bill
shall have first place on the calendar, aside
from the appropriation bills, after the state
hood bill is disposed of, and therefore they
will not antagonize the statehood bill for
the present If at all. Discussion of the
statehood question begins today with q
speech by Senator Morgan. and he will be
ent plan of the opposition is to keep the
discussion going until some Of the appro-
priation bills are reported and 1t becomes
necessary to take them up; or, If this is
postponed too long. to displace the bin with
the pure food BILL Failing in all these ex-
pedients, they probably will seek compro-
mise The only real fight is against the
uniting Of Arizona and New Mexico, and
there is talk of eliminating those territories
entirely from the statehood proposition 1t
is believed IL this were done the bill for the
consolidation Of Oklahoma and Indian ter
ritory would pass. Thus far there has been
no conference of opposing factions on the
subject. and probably there will be little
done to change the present status SO long
as the leaders are anxious to keep other
matters In the background. as appears to be
the case at present.

statement regarding the case has been
made by an official of the State Depart

ION March 10 last the Department of
State received telegraphic intelligence of
the murder OF Rev. Benjamin W. Labaree
an American missionary, near Our0umia, In
Persia, by gang Of fanatic Kurds.
"A demand was made Immediately for
the arrest and trial of the murderers, whose
leader, Seyd Mir Ghafar was looked upon
as lineal descendant Of the prophet. This
circumstance and fear of arousing re-
Iigfous disturbances obviously interfered
with a prompt and efficient action on the
part of the local authorities The most
pressing and earnest representation of the
American legation at Teheran remained
fruitIess until the 18th of October, when
Secretary Hay instructed the American
minister by cable to make known to the
of the Shah the Presidents
