Defective plumbing permits

Sewer gas is not necessarily
generated in the sewer, but
is frequently created in the
plumbing system within the

"Old Innocence."

Tim Murphy's popularity in Birmlng
ham was never more stril<ingly illustrated
than it was last night at the Jefferson
theatre where, in spite of the gala open
ing of new theatre and the strong oppo-
sition of two more. he played to one Of
the largest audiences that has ever greet
ed him here. The house was full, and to
say that Mr.. Murphy's admirable acting
was enjoyed would. be superiuous. "Old
Innocence" Is a play Of rare charm and
Tim Murphy is the comedian best suited
for taking its principal role. Ringing
laughter and enthusiastic HEARTFELT ap-
plause greeted the efforts of the come
dian and his company.
The play is so familiar TO theatre-goers
that an extended review Is unnecessary.
It is enough to say that "Old Innocence
has lost none of its attractive qualities
and for an evening of rare pleasure can
still hold its own with newer plays
Mr.. Murphys supporting company was
quite good Dorothy Sherrod, who is al
ways delight, was at her best. and
Louise Whitfield was pleasing as the
daughter. o. J. Griffin, who has played
the role here a number Of times in the
past, was excellent as a colored butler.

Bombardlns Is Resumed.

st. Petersburg, September 11.-(3:15 a.
m.)-Advlces early this morning from Sled
lee are to the effect that the fighting
and bombarding of houses, which COM
menced. about midday on Monday, was
resumed late In the afternoon, appaf-
emily in consequence of Governor Engl-
ke's demand that the Jewish and Polish
populace devire up to him the members
of the Jewish self-defense association.
The Bundists preferring death in the open
to a tame surrender, resumed the battle.
Artillery was again brought into action
but 1t is not known if the fighting con-
tinues. 1t is impossible TO obtain full
details of the events at Siedlec as the au-
thorities absolutely forbid communication
and turn back all correspondents
The Associated Press correspondents at
Warsaw, after several times vainly en-
deavoring to enter the stricken town,
was obliged to give up the effort at mid
night. At Rudgusowska, forty miles
east of Warsaw, the site of the great
Zirardow mills. scenes similar to those
enacted at Siedlec were witnessed The
soldiers are said to have Killed forty
persons.
Fugitives from Siedlec report that Gov
efnor Englke issued an ultImatum de-
claring that he would lombard the whole
town unless the terrorists We're surren-
dered.

REFERRED TO COMMITTEE.
Matter of state Ticket Is Left With
Resolutions Committee.

New York, Sep .ember 10.-Whether
today's state convention of the hide
pendence League shall nominate can
didates for state officers or shall await
the action of the democratic state con.
vention at Buffalo was still undecided
at an early hour this morning.
For many hours the leagues state
committee wrestled with the problem
of what to recommend to the conven-
ton. The discussion gave rise to an
increasing tense feeling.
w. r. Hearst was summoned to the
meeting after midnight and heard the
heated discussion. The temper of the
delegates seemed to be decidedly In
favor of the nomination of a complete
ticket and indications at o'clock this
morning were that the subject would
lead to still further bitter contro'
versy in the convention.
A motion was finally passed refer
ring the matter of state ticket to the
committee on resolutions. AT O'Clock
the committee adjourned.

Buildings Burning.

Siedlee. September 1O.-Six buildings in
the big bazaar of the city are now in
flames, adding another terror to killing
and plundering, which has been going on
here for the last thrty-six hours.
Frequent shots and occasional volley-
firing Is still heard in different parts of
the town. but because of the general panic
1t is difficult to learn accurately just
what is transporting.
As far as 1t is possible to learn there
have been, UP to the present time, about
sixty persons killed and 200 wounded.
Hundreds of Jews are assembled today
at the railroad station awaiting means of
getting out of town, but Sedec Is sur
rounded by troops who do not permit exit
or entrance
Field guns occupy points of vantage on
the principal streets. There seems no
doubt that the terrorists are responsible
for provoking the massacre by their fusil-
ladies' from roofs and windows on Satur-
day, against soldiers and policemen, who
were patroling the streets. Troops sur
rounded the houses from which this firing
came and poured in volleys through win
dows and doors. This was followed by a
search of the premises which soon de-
veloped into wholesale plundering.

PLEASANT VISIT
70 THE PRESIDENT
THIS is ABOUT ALL THE lNFoRMA-
TON GOVERNOR HIGGINS OF
NEW YORK WOULD GIVE OUT
REGARDING INTERVIEW.

Oyster Bay, N Y. September 1o.-"All
I can say is that have had very
pleasant visit to President Roosevelt and
that he and I are in entire accord" This
was the extent Of the information which
Governor Frank w Higgins of New
York wished printed regarding his con-
ference today with President Roosevelt
at Sycamore HILL
When asked the subject of the con-
ference the governor said;
Naturally the President and I talked
over New York state politics and dis
cussed the candidates"
The governor was asked as to the cor
rectness of the statement in the MORN
ing papers that he had a majority of the
delegates to the republican state con-
vention. His reply was;
II have no doubt that I have some
good friend who has said that I have a
majority of the delegates, but you know
that l never advertise"
Have you given the President any
assurance regarding the action of the
state eonvention?"
I'm afraid you will have to find out
from the President what assurance l
gave him."
Ever since President Roosevelt took
up his residence at Sycamore Hill in
July there have been frequent state
ments in the newspaper that Governor
Higgins was to come to oyster Bay
for a conference. The uniform answer TO
these statements have been that President
Roosevelt ought not to take hand in
the politics of his state and that moth
ing was known of the visit of the gov
ernor. After Governor Higgins had de-
parted 1t was said at the executive Off
ces that there would be no statement
whatever from the President regarding
the conference.

Words Already In Use.

washington, September 1O.-Public
Printer Stillings today began the general
distribution Of tlr pamphlet on simplified
spelling for the use of the government
departments, In accordance with the in
structions of the President.

method Will become greatly minimized
when 1t is realized that of the 300 words
recommended for immediate adoption. 1853
are at present in preferred use in the
government printing office; 40 of the
others in this list are not preferred in
Webster's dictionary, but are used in
the government printing office wherever
the author has copy to be followed"

six circulars of the simplied spelling
board, and a list of the 300 words in
cluded in the letter of the President con-
tanning his approval of the reformed
