Journal Special Service.

JOURNAL special SERVICE
Philadelphia, Oct. 11.-Subway work
men, digging for the foundation Of the
new tunnel station, have uncovered, at
a depth Of 100 feet, what is plainly an
old slave prison.. The pen is composed
Of narrow cells in three tiers, with
three-foot corridors between. Heavy
iron bars covered the windows, and in
each cell were manacle supports
. Directly above the prison is the house
Of the late Stephen 3Girard, an eccen-
trio riah man, who gave Girard college
to Philadelphia. It has il long been
handed down in local history that Cir
ard drive brisk slave trade and that
the basis Of his gigantic fortune came
from, that source. The origin of his
fortune has always been a mystery.
The old Girard house is within half
block Of the Delaware river, from
which secret, access would have been
easy. John W. Jordan, librarian of the
Pennsylvania Historical society, said
that he had recently visited slave dun
geons under an old house in Elkton
Nd, which correspond exactly to those
found here.
A curious circumstance connected
with the discovery is that for years 6
legend Of haunting has hung around
old Water street, between Market anc
Arch. Stories Of underground shrieks
chain rafting, blows, and all the othel
manifestations have been told. Houses
| near the old Girard place could not b.
| rented because of inns.

Wiped Out. .:....,..

Charlottetown, P. E. l., Oct. 11:-The
fire which started early today in the
railway station at ySummerside, and
which spread SO rapidly that aid was
summoned from this city, destroyed
forty-two buildings, including the post
office, the English and Baptist churches
and four hotels! A gale was blowing
and the flames swept thru the town
with terrific speed.
Summerside, P. E. l., Oct. u.-Fire
which broke out here early today
threatens to destroy the greater part
Of the town. A high wind prevails, and
at am. many buildings, all Of wooden
construction, had been burned. Assist
ance was requested Of Charlottetown
and an engine company has been sent
by special train.
Summerside is the second largest
place in Prince Edward Island and has
population Of about 1000.
Rain, which began falling heavily
while the fire was at its height, helped
the fremen to gain control before some
of the larger business structures haf
been damaged. The greater part Of the
buildings destroyed were wooden dwell
ings. About ne-fourth of the town is
in ruins.

Washington, Oct. 1.-The depart
ment of Justice is understood to have
encountered certain legal difficulties
which make it gravely doubtful wheth-
er the Standard Oil company. as a
trust. can be smashed. This, it is said,
is the real reason why prosecutions. Of
that concern under the antitrust law
have not begun.
For months the experts of the depart
ment have been busy going into every
detail Of the allegations against the
Standard Oil with view to lnaugu-
rating action that would bear fruit.
For long time it looked as If they
would be- able to present a strong case,
but later Developments appear to have
changed the entire situation. IL.
Since the return of Attorney General
Moody the evidence has been gone
over most carefully by him and his
assistants and by the other lawyer
members of the cabinet, and there
seems to be somewhat unanimou
agreement that the cases are, not in
proper shape for successful prosecution.
- Whether the trouble is due to 1.-The
manner in which the cases have been
] prepared or because of inadequaciess in
the law itself, cannot beg learned. If
the former. it can doubtless be RENE,
s der; but the fact that the president
{ has decided not to- take public action
at this time leads to the belief The
more serious situation presents itself.

Object of Meeting Of Generals Sought
~ IT,. by the Government.

Havana, Oct. 11.-Confdentia1 agents
Of the late Cuban government today re-
ported to Governor Taft that the meet
ing Of rebel leaders at the home of
General Castillo last night was not for
the sole purpose of bidding each other
farewell. as the participants aliees
4 Castillo addressed his associates, urge
ing that Governor Taft be called on to
declare his attitude toward the men
who were responsible for overturning
the Palma government and declared
that the provisional government would
have made slow progress but for the
assistance of the rebels. Therefore, he
argued, Mr.. Taft should show his graf
itude by ousting the moderates from
Office and substituting for them men
who had fought for good government.
.e Is Not Upheld.
In spite of the fact that. he was the
host, Castillo did not obtain support
for his demand. Generals Ferrera and
Asbert made patriotic speeches, saying
that they fought for their country and
not for spoils. This sentiment was gen.
orally Endorsed and Castillo was voted
down.
Several speeches were then made APP
plauding Governor Taft, President
Roosevelt and the United States for
their generous course toward Cuba.
The provisional government is unable to
make an accurate estimate from the
conflicting reports of last night g meet
| ing at the residence Of General Cas-
