MINERS AGAIN PRESENT
 THEIR WAGE ULTIMATUM
STILL DEMAND THE RESTORA- TION OF THE SCALE
 OF 1908.

Operators Scale Committee Immedi-
 ately Secured Adjournment Until This
 Morning-Expected at This Time a
 Definite Reply, a Refusal, Will be
 Given - Disagreement Expected to
 Follow When Whole Question Will
 Go Before Joint Conference-SIitchel
 Determined - Small Operators and
 Coal Dealers Said to be Supporting
 Lobby to Bring About a Strike.
 Indianapolis, Ind, March 26-TIle United Mine Workers of America through President John Mitchell Vice President T. L. Lewis and Henry c. Perry, president of Illinois miners, this afternoon presented to the coal oper- ators in the executive session of the joint scale committee of the central competitive district their ultimatum on the dispute over the wage scale.
 The demand of the miners, as stated in the ultimatum, is for a restoration of the wage scale of 1903, which is an increase of 555 per cent. Upon the re- ceipt of the ultimatum the operators secured an adjournment of the com mittee until tomorrow morning, when it is. expected definite answer will be given the miners. It is anticipated that this reply will be a refusal by the op- orators and in that event the commit tee will report a disagreement to the joint conference of miners and opera tors. In that case the question will be debated before the joint convention. Tonight, according to those concerned there is little prospect for an agree ment.
 The morning session of the commit tee to-day was without result. After the noon adjournment, John Mitchell, president of the miners, took the floor and said he had been informed on re- liable authority that there were rumors in hotel corridors that the operators be- lieved that if they would stand firmly by their position and prolonged the ses- sions of the joint scale committee, the miners would agree to sign the present scale and recede from their demand for an increase in wages. He said he wanted to explain to the operators that there would be under no circumstances an agreement at less than the scale of 1903 unless after a disagreement the operators could enforce less terms, and he did not believe they could.
 Vice President Lewis said;
 T want to say more than President Mitchell has said. We will be divided neither in this scale conference, out of this scale conference, in the convention, or anywhere else, so far as l am con- cerned. If we have got Ito such a point in these deliberations where 1t is case of wait to see who is going to be able to divide forces on either side, then l

RESEMBLES SPRTGGS CASE
White Woman Claims She Was De-
 tained in, DisOrderly House.

 About 1 o'clock this morning a raid was made upon disorderly house at g Factory street. Tn this raid were cap tured George Pickett and Alfred T. Hewlett, two colored men. who were charged witli keeping u disorderly house. At the same time Alice Ryan and Blanche Beekman, two white girls, were arrested, charged with disorderly conduct.
 In making the arrests the police have opened up a condition of affairs which seems to resemble the noted Spriggs case, which has recently been tried in New York and in which Spriggs receiv- ed a sentence of fifteen years. The Ryan girl claims to have been detained fin the house against her will for two weeks past and when placed under arrest last night did not even have a hat to wear to the station house. The Beeknan girl claims to be from New York. Each is about twenty-two years of age.
 Hewlett seems to have been the pro- prietor of the house. Every time that he went out he locked the door and did likewise on entering. None but col bred men were admitted, and only those who knew the signal.
 The police have been watching the place for some time. The credit for the success of the raid is due to Officers Carton, Frank Eagan and William Wrinn.

CALIFORNIA TRUNK TRAGEDE
Victim Identified and Woman Arrested
 Robbery the Motive.

Stockton, Cal, March 26.-The body of man which was found in trunk among the baggage at the Southern Pa cific depot here on Saturday night, has been identified as that of Albert N. Me- Vicar, an employe of the Rawhide mine at Jamestown, Cal. The police to-day arrested at Antioch, Mrs, Emma Le Doux, or Mrs. McVivar as she called herself here, who is declared to have purchased the trunk in which the body was placed and also the rope with which it was bound. Her husband is now in Amador county. It is supposed that if she committed the crime a man must have aided her as McVicar was powerfully built. He had $500 in cash and it is believed that robbery was the motive for the crime. It is believed that he was drugged, then crushed into the trunk and suffocated.

NEW YORK FIREMEN KILLED
TOUR PERISH BENEATH WRECK
 AGE or FALLING FLOORS.


 Sent to Baltimore Fire--Three Times
 Had Received Honorable MentiOn--
 Narrow Escape of Three Hundred
 Men and Women.
 New York, March 26.-Four firemen were killed and about score of firemen and citizens injured to-day in fire &C., companied by a series of explosions that demolished s:x-story factory building at Bedford and Downing streets, in the Greenwich village dis trict on the lower west side of the city. That the damage, which is estimated at from $SOO,00O to $4OO,00O, was not far greater was declared by Chief Croker to be due to the explosions, which shat tered the building and crushed the blaze beneath tons of debris at the mo- ment when the flames were completely beyond control and threatened to sweep the entire block. One fireman was talk en out of the building alive but died almost immediately. The bodies of his three comrades were recovered after the fire was over, crushed under the wreckage of floors and walls that fol- lowed the explosions.
 The dead are: Foreman John Walsh, who commanded the company sent to the Baltimore fire, and Bremen George c. Cristman, Thomas l.. Halpin and J. Healy, all of Engine Company A.
 Bremen Jacob Cohen and Lewis F. Call, also of Engine IA, were burned and bruised and removed to the hospital. The other persons injured were, for the most part, employees in the factory, dwellers in the adjacent tenenlents and persons, passing in the streets, who were struck by falling bricks or frag- ments of glass None of these was se- riously hurt.
 Three hundred men and women were in the factory during the lunch hour, when a slight explosion occurred on one of the upper floors, and almost instant ly the whole structure was enveloped in flames. Some had time to reach the street by the stairs, but the greater number were compelled to take refuge on the fire escape, where they remained huddled together and imploring assist ance until the fire engines arrived. Be- fore the fire ladder could be run up po- licemen, firemen and volunteers formed human pyramid against the front wall of the factory and in this way handed down to safety upwards of six ty girls who were clinging to the fire escape in the second floor. Others jumped into the life-saving nets or on piles of bedding hastily gathered and heaped on the sidewalks. Within ten minutes all the occupants of the build- ing had been taken out in safety and unhurt, save for minor injuries.

FOR VOTE ON RATE BILL
TILLMAN TO BRING QUESTION
 UP IN SENATE TO-DAY.

to Have Day Specified-Matter Came
 Up Over Effort of Number of sena-
 tors to Get Immediate Consideration
 of Amendments.
 Washington, March 26-There was a hint in the senate to-day at an effort to fix a time for final vote on the rail- road-rate bill, but it was surrounded by so much circumstance and doubt that no prediction as to the time would be justified.
 MT. Tillman stated that he would bring the matter up in the senate to- morrow, and unless objection was then made he may ask to have a day speci- fled.
 The suggestion as to time arose in connection with the more or less seri- ous effort on the part of a number of senators to secure immediate consider ation of amendments MT. Tillman re- sisted all attempts of this kind. Among the provisions offered were: By MT. Foraker, prohibiting the issuance of passes; by MT. Scott, compelling rail- roads to connect with other railroads, and by MT. Culberson, denying to inter- state roads the privilege of making campaign contributions
 During the day MT. Overman made general speech in support of the bill, and MT. Teller spoke at some length against undue haste in considering the question.
