Passing Steamer.

Norfolk, Va. Oct accounting the

OF their companions. whose sufferings
had driven him mad, throw himself into
the sea TO death, and not long afterward
a ship saved their lives.
The five survivors were landed here to-

Fell Into the Roaring Flames.

John Lynch grabbed the baby OF John
Sparks and jumped with it and with the
child fell into the burning debris below.
Both disappeared and were killed.
Another baby thrown from one of the
upper windows was caught by firemen
uninjured.
The fire interrupted street car traffic
on the elevated road and motorman
whose car stood just opposite the burn
ing building said he saw five or six per-
sons in the upper floors struggling fran
tieally to escape, and he is certain all
of them succumbed 10 the smoke and top
pied over into the ruins. He said he had
q clear view and would have witnessed
the rescue of the persons if any had been
possible.
Long after the floors had fallen in, pill

mass, which were quickly attacked by the
flames. gas from an open main that en-
tered the building continued to burn, re

STRIKE NOT IMMINENT.
General Manager Calvin Speaks for
the Southern Pacific.

San Francisco. Oct 25-E. Z. Calvin,
general manager, and W. s. Palmer gen.
eral superintendent of the Southern Pa
cific company, deny the report that any
strike is imminent in any branch of the
service. Mr. Palmer made the following
statement today:
There is no joint committee represent
ing the trainmen in session with the
Southern Pacific officials. The only QueS-
tons are those that have come UP in the
usual order and the agreement between
the Southern Pacific and its trainmen
and these relate solely 10. conductors and
10 switchmen. the latter being represent
ed by the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men. A great many details are being
gone over by the general superintendent
of the Southern Pacific and the commit
tees representing these two orders, but
relations are not strained and there is no
doubt whatever as to a satisfactory out
come.
1T is particularly desirable that this
should be known everywhere at the pres
ent time, since the possibility OF strike
which would tie up all the railroads In
California would seriously affect the state
at a very critical time.
There is no question under considera-
tion between the Brotherhood OF Locomo-
tive Engineers and the Southern Pacific,

interior OF the building were already over

carried out by the firemen. But many
were able to escape down the ladders
without assistance. After getting every

Wilson then dropped his wife down and
she was saved, and he followed, escaping
