LAST FIRE OF OLD TEAR.
Does S2,0OO Damage in Connecticut
 Savings Bank Building.

What proved to be the last fire of the old year broke out in the Connecticut Savings Bank building, S3 Church street, last night soon after II; 300 clock. The fire bells were a little early in ring ing out the old and in the new, but at any rate the New Year found the de- partment fighting fire which was a product of the old year.
 The first alarm was still and was responded to by Chemical No. 1. But the firemen could not gain an entrance to the main floor or the basement from which issued volumes of smoke. So a regular alarm was rung in. The seat of the fire was found to be in the base ment md 1t burned it's way through the floor above, but was there effectu- ally checked by the firemen.
 The fire originated in a pile of papers in the basement, but how the papers caught fire Is not known. One theory has 1t that crossed electric wires were the cause. Damage was about two thousand dollars.
 The fire caused considerable interest among the restless throng of people who walked the streets in search of ex- cltement while watching the old year out and the new year in.

4 VICIOUS FALSEHooD.
Honolulu Physician Denies Statement Regarding Mrs. stanford's Death.

Honolulu, Dee. S1.-Local officials and physicians who were concerned in the investigation of the death of Mrs. Jane Lathrop Stanford in this city express mitigation over cabled report to the effect that President David Starr Jordan. of the Leland Stanford university has made a state ment in Denver, Col, alleging that the claim that she had died from poison had been made the basis of a plot by Honolulu officials to extort large fees. Dr. Humphreys declared to-day that the report was a vicious false hood.
 In reference to the alleged statement by Dr. Jordan. that the facts in the case would soon be made public, 1t is said this would be answered by sci- entific statement signed by the attend ing physician, and all the autopsy phy- sicians, backed by the chemists post mortem reports, all the roctors agree ing that death was due to strychnine poisoning.

 Paris, Dec. 31.--Sensational papers here continue to publish lengthy tele- grams from frontier towns reporting extraordinary activity of the military authorities The evening addition of the Intransigeant to-day reproduces the alleged declaration of a superior Bel gian staff officer upon the military pre- cautions Belgium is taking in order to preserve neutrality, and also lengthy special dispatch showing the defensive strength of the main frontied points
 Deputy Jaurcs reflects the pessimistic view of the socialist element, writing to the Humanite that ''the antagonism in which France and Germany enter the Morocco conference causes a terrible uneasiness to weigh upon Europe, as the slightest untoward incident might unchain Q catastrophe"
 Most of the serious journals take a more conservative view, although all recognize the existence of widespread feelings of inquietude. Marcel Provost. in the Figaro, seeks to analyze the .ex- isting feelings, saying it is the nations awakening from pacificism. This. M. Provost says must be understood as an indication neither of a desire for war nor actual anticipation of war, but a. lively sentiment which has taken hold of the people that the nation should be prepared for all emergencies: This sentiment, he adds, has grown out Of the scare of some months ago, when Germany's attitude in Morocco seemed to threaten grave consequences, and France was made to realize that ar- ranging ententes and arbitration had relaxed her military policy. The agita- ton began against pacitfcism as being opposed to patriotism. The present movement is in effect, says M. Provost, an expression of the sentiment against pacifcism and in favor of military alertness, It is not to be understood as indicating the purpose of France to as sume a belligerent role in the Morocco conference, but merely a return to the former policy of military preparednesss

WITTE'S DOWNFALL IS ONCE MORE PREDICTED REPORT THAT HE IS BOOKED FOR RETIREMENT
 SHORTLY.

M. DurnOyo, the Idol of the Court
 Camarllla, to Succeed to Premiership
 With His Stern Policy an End to
 Existing Anarchy Is Expected--Witte
 Being Attacked More Fiercely Than
 Ever by the Liberals - Strongly
 Guarded.
 St. Petersburg, Dec. 31, 7:35 p. n.- The report that Count Witte is booked for retirement in few days is again being persistently circulated.
 The Nasha Shisn, which declares it can guarantee the accuracy of it's state- ment, says that M. Durnovo, minister of the interior, who is worshipped as an idol by the court camarilla, which believes that his stern policy alone can put an end to the existing anarchy, has accomplished the downfall of the count and will be elevated to the premiership.
 Investigation by the Associated Press, however, indicates that the report is baseless, certainly for the moment. Nevertheless, 1t is true that M, Durnoyo has a powerful cabal of reactionaries behind him and temporarily seems to dominate the situation, M. Manukhin, whose sudden retirement from the min- istry of justice Gin which he is succeed ed by M. Akynoff, a member of the sen ate), created stir, resigned, according to the Molva (Russ), rather than sub init to M. Durnovo's dictation in mat ters which he regarded as being strict | ly within the sphere of his ministry He insisted that the reports of the sen ators who were dispatched to investi- gate the Jewish and other massacres I following the imperial manifesto of Oc- tober 30 should be made to the minister of justice iii order that legal proceed ings could be begun against the police and other local authorities where found culpable.
 M. Durnovo resisted this, declaring that the interior administration belong. ed to him. When M. Durnovo was sus. tained M. Manukhin resigned and M | Akynoff who is brother-in-law of M Durnoyo, was appointed his successor.
 On the other hand, Count Witte f being attacked more fiercely than eve on the side of the liberals, who chargl that he is showing the cloven ho5f ant say that ha might happen to fall be tween two stools.
 M. Brianchainoff is out with a stront article in the Slovo, entitled ''Witt' Must Go" in which he asserts that tn, victory at Portsmouth has been follow ed by defeat at St. Petersburg 1 The government Is now proceeding or the theory that a victory over thC reds is assured.

 Stratford, Dec. 31.--Dean French, the sixteen years old son of Dr. A. D. French of this place, accidentally shot himself to death yesterday, and his body was found late last night about have a. mile from hIs home. Young French was given a gun for Christmas, and yesterday he gave 1t It's first trial in the woods near his home. In climb ing over stone fence on the top of which was some wire, young French evidently stumbled, exploding the gun. hand, and into his side and lung. AL though terribly wounded the boy be- gan an instant fight against death, and bound his handkerchief around his hand and started to crawl to his home. He pulled himself along the ground for about 200 feet, but his strength finally gave out and he died.
 When the boy failed to return home last night al search was made of the country in the vicinity of his fathers farm, but without success until late at night, when a farmer said that he had found bloody mitten and a gun at a certain point along the road, He di- rected the searchers to this place, and from there they were able to trace the blood stains on the ground until they found the body of the boy. He was on his way home, 1t is thought. when the accident happened.
