Building Burned.


Fire was discoyered issuing from
the roof of the residence of Dentist
j. e. Tinsley. about midnight last
night, and despite all efforts the
buildingwas a.total loss. The owner
had. rather narrow escape from IN
cinerationi hisnself, and lost. practi
cally all his house furnishings.
The doctor. was alone in the house
at the time, Mrs. Tinsley and two
children being on a visit to the
lady's parents at Evansville, and he
is positive there was not a spark OF
fire aboutttie premises when he re-
tired at IL o'clock. His idea is that
the fire started in, the second story,
and was due tosrats.
Most effective work vas done by
those present in preventing the igni-
ton of nearby buildings, and Mr..
George Polk had. one hand and wrist
badly blistered while working on
the roef of Mrs. Estelle Walls
boarding house.
We learn there was about $4,000
insurance on the house, and furni-
ture, which does not more than half
reimburse them forthe financial loss
sustained. The sympathy of all our
people is rendered them.

LABOR HARMONY
CIVIC FEDERATION CLOSER
TO COMPRESS BODY.
Recent Conference on Combinations
Results in Step Towards More
Amicable Relations.

CHICAGO, Oct. 26.-Leaders of the
National Civic Federation movement
see, as one of the great results of the
national conference on combinations
and trusts, which closed here yester-
day, the completion of a long step for
ward in their plan for relations of
amity with the chiefs of the American
Federation of Labor. AS an aid to the
F~ederation's aim for closer relations
with the big labor body, headed by
Samuel Gompers, it was decided at the
opening OF the conference In Chicago
not to encourage attacks in the con-
vention on the alleged 'labo trust"
with the result that several delegates
who had planned speeches against the
closed shop and the methods of organ
lied labor materially modified the
tenor of their remarks.
When the conference was planned it
was deemed fitting TO recognize labor's
interest in the trust question by maxi
ing President Gompers vice-chairman
of the governing committee. His pres
ence at the gathering led to h APP
pearance there of the presidents and
executive officers of the national union
of m~achinists, miners, carpenters,
printers and longshoremen, besides the
| leaders of numerous smaller unions and
labor representatives took an active
part in the discussions affecting the
railroads and the oil, steel, tobacco,
lumber, rubber and beef combinations.
During the intermissions of the con-
ference the labor leaders in attendance
held several meetings to consider the
industrial future n map out a politi-
cal course for their organization, Presi-
dent Gompers being present at most of
the meetings.
The non-appearance at the confer
ence of President August Belmont, of
the National Civic Federation, has led
I to a discussion of rumors that MIR.
Belmont is to retire from the leader
ship OF the organization. 1t was au-
thoritatively stated, however, that
President Belmont was unable to leave
: New York because of the financial
situation there. 1t is said Mr.. Belmont
will make early reply to the critics OF
his administration because he obtained
from public utility companies funds to
| defray the federation's municipal
ownership investigation and report.
The conference just closed did not
develop any political action within the
federation. The majority of the 400
delegates were not members of the
| federation. and the conference itself
had no jurisdiction on questions OF
| policy affecting the central body.
From conferences of the executive
officers of the Civic Federation, after
adjournment of the national confer
ence, word was given that Secretary
Ralph M. Easley will issue calls for
early meetings of special committees
on the recommendation of legislation
in Congress hat the committees may
complete their work before the end OF
the year..

HOSPITAL DOCTORS
HAVE BUSY HOUR
Two Women Burned, Man with Injured
Back and Boy with Lacerated
Finger Require lmme-
diate Attention

The doctors at the receiving hospital
had the busiest hour in a long time
yesterday between and 4 O'Clock in
the afternoon. Almost simultaneously
with the bringing in of Mrs. Trumble
and Mary Smith, who were burned in
an East First street fire, Nicholas
Longberg and Johnny Brown were
brought in for treatment.
Longberg had fallen from a ladder
in the F. w. Braun building, now be-
ing constructed on the northeast cor
ner of Republic and New High streets.
He struck on his back across a small
excavation, and 1t was thought that
his back was broken. He lay for about
half an hour on a cot in the hospital.
patiently waiting while the women were
treated, and never a word of reproach
came from his lips. He could hear the
means and cries of his fellow suffer-
ers, whose burns were being treated,
and yet he did not ask for anything.
1t was not so with little Johnny
Brown He was locking the door of
his mothers room when he heard the
fire engine go by the house. He started
exoitedly for the front door, but for
got to take his hand from the sharp
point inside the keys handle and tore
the flesh from his second finger almost
to the bone. The poor boy did not see
the fire, but ne went to the police sta
ton and cried when he was told the
doctors were busy trying to save the
lives of two women.
After a long wait both patients were
sent out to other doctors to be treated.
