TILLMAN TO ASK DATE FOR.
XOHE ON TIE RATE RIII.

Washington. Mar. 26.--There was a
hint in the senate today at an effort
to fix a time for a final vote on the
railroad rate bill, but It was surround
ed byso much circumstances and doubt
that no prediction as to the time
would be justified. Mr.. Tllman stated
that he would bring the matter UP in
the senate tomorrow and unless OBJ
lection was made he may ask to have
day specified.
The suggestion as to time arose In
connection with the more or less Sc
rious effort on the part of a number
of senators to secure immediate con-
sideration of amendments offered by
themselves. Mr.. Tillman resisted all
attempts of that kind in the absence
of many senator's saying that votes
ought not to be taken without full no.
tice to senators. Among the provt-
sfons offered were: BY Mr.. Foraker,
prohibiting the issuance of passes; by
Mr.. Scott, compelling railroads to con-
meet with other railroads. and by Mr..
Culberson, denying the interstate
roads the privilege of making cam
paign contributions. MIR. Overman
made a general speech in support of
the bill and Mr.. Teller spoke at length
against undue haste in considering the
question.

II Plttsburg, Pa, Mar. 26.-E'ive ar
rests were made this afternoon by the
ederal authorities In the now famous
failure of the Enterprise National
Bank of Allegheny, the wreck of
which institution practically ruined
thousands OF depositors, drove two
men to suicide, smirched the reputa-
tiOns of dozen of prominent pOliti-
cians In Pennsylvania and was largely
instrumental In breaking uD the cor
rupt state machine, of which Israel
w. Durham was boss. The five men
who were arrested today included
Forest II. Nichols, private secretary to
William II. Andrews, territorial dele
gate from New Mexico: Charles
Menzemer, George II. RalstOn and
Edward u. Macmillan, employees
of the wrecked bank; also George Il.
Cook an alleged partner of the late
4. Lee Clark, the Enterprise bank
cashier, who committed suicide when
he saw that the ruin of the bank was
inevitable. 4 warrant is also out for
the arrest of Thomas Harvey, paying
teller of the Enterprise bank, but up
to late hour this afternoon he could
not be found.

Washington, Mar. 26.-Secretary
Taft today discussed with the senate

garding the distribution of army Off
GERS among the army posts. He crit
icised the present system. sHying that
it is deficient in that it does not af-
ford officers an opportunity for eX-
ercising command over large forces
He attributed the system to the fact
that in the earlier days many posts
were desirable on the frontier, and
said it is difficult to discontinue a sys-
tenn once established. Yet, he said.
there is a tendency toward an inn
provement, as seen in the establish
ment of regimental posts in this coun-
try and of brigade posts in the Phil
ippines. Forts Riley, 'Leavenworth.
Russell and Sam Houston i'm this eoun-
try can. he said be easily transformed
into brigade posts. AT all those posts
there are large reservations, while to
establish large posts in the east would
require vast outlays to secure maneu-
yer grounds. 1t is not the purpose
to do away with the small posts, said
the secretary, nor would 1t be neces-
sary to do SO.

RESULT OF PROLONGED AND
SEARCHING INVESTIGATION

These arrests are the result of
long and tedious investigation of the
banks badly tangled affairs, by Bank
Examiner Edward p Moxey. In Mr..
Moxey's information made this after
noon before United States Commits
sioner William II. Lindsay against
Forrest r. Nichols, Andrews private
secretary, 1t is set forth that he con-
spired with Clark to abstract and will
fully applv moneys, funds and credits
of the bank and drew money from
the bank for himself and Andrews by
check, when he had no deposit there.
II is CHARGED that In return for these
favors political influence was brought
to bear to have the Enterprise bank
made a depository for state funds, Of
which II held $1,030,000 at the time
OF its failure. The charge against
Ralston and Macmillan is that they
made false entries in the books of the
bank with intent to defraud. The
charge against Cook is that he con-
spired with Clark to defraud the bank
by getting false credit. The charge
against Menzemer Is that he unlawful
ly certified as good Nichols checks
drawn upon the bank.
The facts contained in these infor-
nations lodged against the defendants
have been known for a considerable
time but warrants were not served
until today because the United States
officials desired to secure evidence in
certain civil proceedings now under
way to attempt to secure certain mon
ey alleged to be due the bank. Inas-
much as several persons, whose names
are not given, are mentioned in con-
nection with these alleged fraudulent
deals 1t is believed that the arrests
made today are only preliminary 70
more important arrests, which will
soon follow and which will involve
persons much higher up. Penalties of
from five to ten years imprisonment
are possible II the charges are sus-
tained. A notice of sheriff's sale was
today placed on certain valuable real
estate belonging to w. III. Andrews in
the sehwltter division of Westview, i

New York Mar. 26.-Four firemen
and citizens were injured today in d
fire, accompanied by series of ex-
plosions that demolished a six-story
factory building at Bedford and
Downing street in the Greenwich viii
lage district on the lower side of the
city. That the damage, which
is estimated at from 100000 to $780,
600, was not far greater, was declared
by Chief Croker to be due to the ex-
plosions which shattered the building
and crushed the blaze beneath tons
of debris at the moment when the
flames were completely beyond control
and threatening to sweep the entire
block.

Three hundred men and women
were in the factory during the lunch
hour, when an explosion occurred on
one of the upper floors and almost in
stantly the whole structure was en-
veloped in flames. Some had time to
reach the streets by the stairs, but
the greater number were compelled to
take refuge on the fire escapes, where
they remained huddled together and
mploring assistance until the fire
engines arrived. Before the fire lad
der could be run up, policemen, fire.
men and volunteers formed a human
pyramid against the front wall of the
factory and in this way handed down
to safety upward of sixty girls, who
were clinglng to the fire escapes in
the second floor.
Others jumped into the life saving
nets or on piles of bedding hastily
gathered and heaped on the side
walks. Within ten minutes all of the
occupants of the building had been
taken out in safety and unhurt save
for minor injuries.
The factory was occupied by the
Empire Art Metal Co., the STANDARD
Thread Co. and the Metal Stamp Co.,
which owned the building.
