HEMMED IN ROOM
Three Men Saved From Death by Fire - One of Them
 Went Insane.

New York, Feb 21.-Three men were saved from death to-day under peculiar circumstances during fire on the top floor of Hester street tenement house in the lower east Side. They were sleeping in the same room and did not awaken until their room had been filled with smoke which made it inn possible for them to find their cloth ing. Fearing to climb down the fire escape they remained in the room until one went temporarily insane and the other two were too weak to save them. selves. A policeman who climbed up the fire escape found these latter two pressing their faces against cracked window through which they tried to suck fresh air. He carried them to the street and then returned and searched the room for the third man, whom he found crawling about the floor gather ing up articles of clothing and tearing them to shreds. The flames were al- ready entering the room when the pa- trolman carried the insane man to the street. All three were taken to a po- lice station and dressed temporarily in police uniforms. The fire did about 1000 damage.

DEATH FROM HEART FAILURE
John Desshse's Body Found in Cellar of Hub
 Restaursut

John Donahue. a man about 55 years of age, was found dead in the cellar of the Hub restaurant to-day about F o'clock. About that time Edward Flynn, the bartender in the restaur- ana, went in to the cellar and in the rear found Donahue lying upon q cot as if he was asleep. When Flynn tried to awake him it was discovered that the man was dead. Medical Ex- aminer CraEe was immediately called and he pronounced death due to heart failure. The doctor said that Dona- hue probably settled himself for nap and died from sheer exhaustion.
 Donahue is fellow whom no one seems to know much about. He has worked in this city on and off for sew eral years doing odd jobs the greater part of the time around restaurants and lunch rooms. Just at present be was employed in the Hub and this morning he appeared to be as we'll as ever. Even as late as I0 o'clock this forenoon he was in Harrington's lunch room talking with the fellows and wrong with him. From there he went to the Hub and was last seen alive at If:15.
 When Dr Monagan. who was tlle first physician fo arrive. reached tlIe cellar the man was still warm and it is believed he died but a short tinse before. Donahue Is said to have a sis- ter in town but at present her where abouts gre unknown. Undertaken Moriarfy took charge of the remains.

CREATING BISHOPS
Secret Consistory Held To-day to Fill Places Vacant in
 France.

Rome, Feb. 21-The pope held se- cret consistory to-day chiefly to create nineteen French bishops in the dio- ceses vacant through the Franco-Vati- can struggle. He also preconized the Right Rev W. H. O'ConnelL coadjutor to the Archbishop of Boston. as archbishop of Constance, and the Right Rev A. S. Bernard as bishop of St Hyacinth, Canada. The whole cer- emony was in line with the vatican's policy towards France. The ponIiff delivered an allocution summarizing the ideas set forth in his recent ency- clical, showing that necessity hastened Its appearance, ''as certain publica- tions may have deceived the faithful regarding the real intentions and feel ings of the holy see.' evidently al- luding to the pastoral letter of Mgr. Bonomell, archbishop of Verona, who advocated the principle of separation of church and state.
 Much interest was displayed in the sudden presence in Rome of Cardinal Logue, archbishop of Armagh, and primate of all Ireland, who arrived here to be present at the consistorys and of Cardinal Mathieu, archbishop of Toulouse, who went to France to attend the funeral of Cardinal Per raud, bishop of Autun, and who re- turned here in order to take part in the consistory.

President Mitchell Is in
 Pittsburg. NO NEW CONVENTION
Is Necessary, Nor Will There be One He Says - Will Not Have Conference With
 Operators.

Pittsburg, Feb 21.-John Mitchell. president of the United Mine Workers of America, arrived here to-day and immediately went to the Hotel Henry, where he and Secretary Treasurer Will son, who came from Indianapolis, met the special committee representing the delegates to the Pittsburg district miners convention at 10 o'clock. When asked the purpose of his visit to Pitts burg, MT Mitchell said:
 T have absolutely Nthing to say now. See me at the hotel after the noon adjournment of our conference and I may then have something of in terest"
 'sIs the trouble between the officers and delegates of the Pittsburg district alone responsible for your visit:" was asked of Mir Mitchell.
 ''Yes, sir; I know of no other busi- ness.'
 President Mitchell said. in connec. ton with the report which gained cur rency here yesterday that conference with the bituminous coal operators would be held to-day, that he had made no arrangements to meet the coal op- orators here.
 How is the New York conference progressing| President Mitchell was asked.
 Affairs are going along smoothly he replied.
 Do you think, MT Mitchell, it will be necessary to reconvene the national convention?'
 "frhe national convention will not re- assemble" said the miners president, emphatically.
 Has the executive board been called together for a meeting?" was asked.
 'Yes. the executive board will meet some time before April 1. The meeting is essential and must be held. but there is no unusual significance attached to the meeting,' replied President Mitch ell.
 F. L. Robbins of the Pittsburg Coal Go, and leader of the bituminous coal operators. when asked whether con- ference between the coal operators and United Mine officials would be held here to-day, said:
 Not to my knowledge. No meeting has been arranged and I do not expect to see President Mitchell while fin Pitts burg unless the meeting with him is accidental. I saw Mir Mitchell in New York yesterday and came to Pitts- burg on the same train with him. Dur ing a talk with Mitchell on the train he said the trouble among the mem- bers of the Pittsburg district miners was responsible for his visit"

CONSPIRACY CASE
Jurors Challenged in Case Against
 Frederick w. Preston. $

Business in the superior court this forenoon was all awry. Court opened at 9:30 o'clock and the case against Linwood Dix on Vine street and rob ping him of S1.20 was immediately put on. It soon transpired. however, that the case could not proceed. it hav- ing been found that some of the states most important witnesses had not re- sponded to the subpoenas. Therefore in view of this situation 1t had to be postponed.
 The case against Frederick W. Pres ton for conspiring with Charles Bas- sett. Edward Leonard and Joseph Ce- nesky to rob Thomas C. Lockwood at his home on the Middlebury road. oiie night year ago this month. was next called. Preston. it was said. has been very anxious for trial. His counsel is Attorney Rogers.
 Every juror on the panel was chal- lenged and very slowly were the se lections made. The questions for the most part were those that were put to the jurors in the case against Rassett: We're you acquainted with Lockwood: Did you read any of the accounts of the murder of Lockwood in the news papers? Have you formed an opinion on the casel etc.
 X special jury was summoned yes feniayi for this case. hut no responses had been made up to the time the reg ular jury was exhausted by the chal- lenges and consequently the case had also to be postponed. By 2 o'clock tiis jurors had arrived and the exam1na- ton was resumed.
 At 2.20 the jury was selected and the case started without aIry more de lay. Edward Lewis was the first witness. He Is one of the crowd of young men whom it was testified to in the Bassett trial that Preston made ovcrtures to several times to rob Mir lockwood. The sase will ie simply a repetition Of the Bassett trial without going into the actual murder of Lock wood. S

Western Miners to Se-
 cure Legal Talent. TO DEFEND OFFICERS
Who Are Now Under Arrest for a Serious Charge Large Fund Will be Collected to De-
 fray the Expense.

Denver, Col, Feb 21-A meeting of the executive board of the Western Federation of Miners probably will be called within week to adopt plans for the defense of the officers now un- der arrest in Idaho. James Kirwan, a member of the board, arrived yester- day from Terry, $. D. Vice President J. c. Williams of Grass Valley, Cal, will reach here to-day. The members of the federation, it is said. will be asked to subscribe money to de1end Mover, Haywood and Pettibone.
 We will secure the best legal tal- ent obtainable fin the country" said KirWan. '.The rank and file of the members of tBe federation believe Tn the innocence of their officers and will see that they have justice, if such a thing is procurable
 The charges brought against our men are the same ones that have been trumped up by the mine owners so many times. Fifty-three of us were arrested after the Independence explo- sion, but none was ever prosecuted. Our arrest was made merely for polit- ical effect.
 'It is queer thing that every time anyone has made a so-called comics sion it has been proven beyond a doubt that he was in the employ of the Mine Owners association.
 Orchard is in the same boat as the other confessors. If the evidence against our officers is as strong as they say it is, why did not they allow them to have a hearing in Colorado? Such evidence as that would surely have been sufficient grounds to allow requisition instead of to warrant Kid mapping"
 As a counter charge to that made by detective agency that the officers of the Western Federation formed conspiracy to murder all syunpathizers with the mine owners in Colorado, Mir Kirwan declares that the mine owners have formed a conspiracy to break up the federation through such charges trumped up against officers

HAD CLOSE CALL
Room Was Filled With Illuminating Gas Where Two Men
 Were Sleeping.

Only for the early arising of James Behan who lives at 553 North Main street this morning two boarders in the house would surely have been asphyxiated and as 1t is one of the men is still in an unconscious condi- ton and has only an even chance for his life.
 Mrs James Behan with her husband and several children live at the ad- dress mentioned above, and keep a couple of boarders by the name of Patrick Bergin and Carroll Mccarthy. The former is employed at the Wate.- bury Manufacturing company and the latter at the West Brass mill. They sleep in the same room and last night Mccarthy arrived home and went to bed about II o'clock. He left the gas lighted for Bergin who was still out. Bergin came in about two hours later and it Is belieeyd blew ont the gas, as this Is the only cause apparent for the accident. When Mir Behan arose this morning at : o'clock tE- house was filled with gas. He immediately opened some windows and after look ing around discovered that the gas was coming from the room of the boariers.
 He broke down the door leading to the room and found the two men in bed in an unconscious condition. All signs of life had left the body of Der gin and Mccarthy was just breathing. pr IsaIly. who lives nearby. was sum- moned and with the help of a milk man, succeeded in keeping them alive by means of artificial respiration. Ar ter working alout an hour Mccarthy opened his eyes but if was some time later before Bergin was brought out of the stupor. Only the men are big strapping fellows they would un- doubtedly have succumbed to the deadly gas
 A reporter saw the men this after noon but they are not as yet aware of what they passed through and how close they were to death Mccarthy Is still in a stupor and does not seem to he doing as well as Bergin. whom the doctor thinks is out of danger.

A. E. RICE ESTATE
Appointment of Administrator May
 Affect Apothecaries Hall Co.

Attorney Ely of New Haven has filed an application with the probate court for the appointment of ar admin istrator on the estate of the late A. E. Rice, grandfather of r. B. Rice's SOIL, A. K. Rice. There will be hearing on the petition in the court Saturday x morning, and while there is every prospect that 1t will be decidedly inter- estlng i'll view of recent proceedings in connection with the Apothecaries Hall co. all agreement may be reached which will make the hearing mere matter of form.
 There never was an administrator on the estate of A. E. Rice, deceased. II was left in trust for his widow, who sflli lives. with his son. the late F. E. Rice. The latter's son has been an. pointed administrator on his estate ana so far has represented his grand fathers 4,9 shares In the proceeding of the Apothecaries Hall Co.
 Colonel Burpee 1t is stated, will rep resent at the hearing I. F. Kellogg. treasurer and practical manager of the concern, and oppose the nomination Of MT Rice for administrator. Mr Kel. loggs contention has been that MT Rice could not legally vote at any meeting of the company as his name is not on the company's books. whereas 1T he were appointed administrator on his grandfather's estate he would then be entitled to vote and it would b4 all up with Mir Kellogg as an official of the eoncern. Samuel P. Williams is ticketed for his post in the future.
 It Is stated that every effort will be made to keep from the public the vaiue of the 409 shares held fin trust for Mrs Rice, ST. and it is again said that the fight may become so warm that this secret cannot longer be withheld.
