The hotels were the Waldorf, Ger

of these was the Germania, which had
100 rooms. None of the hotels was
occupied except by caretakers. Tn
blaze started in the Waldorf and be-
fore fire apparatus could be summoned
it seemed as though the beach for a
long distance would be swept clean of
hotels and cottages. Hope of saving
the Waldorf was quickly abandoned,
and efforts were made to save the
other two hotels, but the heat was
so intense that the firemen could only
fight the blaze from a distance.

HIS ACTIONS FAIR AND HONEST

haus Did Not Contribute $21 900 to
Republican Campaign Fund.

Jefferson City, Mo, Jan. 1.-THE
majority report of the committee on
the Niedringhaus investigation Was
read in the lower house today in the
presence of a large crowd. The find
ings of the committee eXonerate Mr.
Niedringhaus and say that his expla'
nation of the contribution of $21, ,000
attributed to him are satisfactory.
The report says in part:
The action of Mr. Niedringhaus, SO
far as investigation of your commit.
tee is concerned, which investigation
was full and fair, was honest and
above criticism.
The report adheres to the deelara.
tion that the contribution was to the
Republican city campaign committee
of st. Louis; that Niedringhause did
not contribute $4,000 to that fund,
and that he filed no such statement
with the recorder of deeds because he
was acting treasurer of the city com
mittee. 1t seems that as chairman OF
the state committee Neidringhaus
filed a statement, including the $21,'
900 which was properly credited to
him, and that Adolfus Busch guaran.
teed him $4,000 and Otto Stifel guar.
anteed him $3,250 of the said amount;
that no money was contributed by
brewers to influence legislation, and
with explanations of Niedringhau, in
