Voters of That City Decide to
Cling Longer to the Old
Document.
BATTLE OF TEN YEARS.
THE VOTE WAS A LIGHT ONE AND
MAYOR BUSSE THINKS THIS
FEATURE is GREATLY TO BE-
REGRETTED.

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-Aftcr ten years of
charter talk Chicago voters Tuesday
decided after ten hours of voting to
cling to the old document and the pro-
gressives went down to defeat by an
unofficial vote of 122O54 to 59,,446.
Thus ends one of the bitterest polite
al fights in the history of Chicago.
For more than ten years the city has
been rent by factional fighting For
six years the battle has been carried
on in legislative halls The victory
today, although party lines had been
obliterated to an extent, means a vic
tory for Roger Sullivan and the demo-
Gratis. The fight has been a complex
one, which invited the shrewdest of
party leaders to a test Of their skill.
The liquor interests became involved
in the squabble and added zest to the
contest. A newspaper war followed.
and the result was that the city was
worked up to a fever heat when the
voting began this morning. 1t had
been predicted that 10000 votes would
be cast From the early returns the
total vote is placed at 1S1. 800.
More than half of the registered vote
was cast. final figures. unofficial. show
ing 30. 446 ballots for the charter and
122,O54 against it. The total vote
polled was 1890 out of registered
vote of 361 ,96S. The vote was due to
some extent to the fact that the cleo
ton was special one and that the
of time off for the purpose of
voting was optional with employers
and in the majority Of cases voters
were Obliged to go to the polls before
going to work, or not at all.

jamestown, Va.-Two worlds rec
ords were smashed at the games for
the amateur national championships
here today. John Flanagan of the
Irish-American A. c. made a new mark
in throwing the 56-pound weight, his
figure being 3S feet 8 inches. The
other record was made by Ralph Rose,
the young western giant, who put the
shot 40 feet 61a inches.
The meet was for senior champions
and was easily won by the Irish-Am-
erican A. G. of New York with 81
points. The New York A. G. was sec
ond with 81 points and the Chicago A.
G. third with 16.
The feature of the meet was the dis
appointing showing of Dan j. Kelly of
Portland, Ore, who was badly beaten
in the 100-yard dash. He broke the
A. A. U. record in the broad jump
however. The sprinting races were

Go Through and Relieve The Passen-
gers In Train.

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 8.-The Rocky
Mountain limited express on the Rock
Island road was raided just before day
light, near Murdoch, Neb., by three
masked men. The robbers went
through the chair car, robbing every
passenger Of their pocketbooks and
purses, covered the train crew with
revolvers and escaped by leaping from
the train. The robbers were passen-
gers on the train.
Two men went down the isles with
hats in hand while the third kept the
passengers covered. All passengers
were ordered to throw pocketbooks
into the hats, and this was done.
The conductor appeared in the car
with pistol in his hand, but was
promptly covered with four guns and
forced to drop his revolver. After get
ting all the money in the car the rob
bers jumped from the train, which had
slowed down for a grade. An attempt
was made to enter the sleeper, but il
was unsuccessful as the door was
locked.

San Francisco, Sept. S.-The ia
nous Cliff House of this city. San

was burned to the ground Saturday
evening. Fire broke out in the build
ing about 4:45 o'clock, and an hour
later blackened heap of ruins was all
that remained of the historic struc-
ture. The house was built Of wood,
and famed by the lively ocean breezes.
the flames made such Roadway be-
fore the nearest fire company arrived
that 1t was realized that the place was
doomed, and more attention was paid
to saving adjoining property than to
the burning building.
The Cliff House had been closed for
some time, as the new lessee, John
TAFT, was remodeling the interior
Workmen were about the place until
noon, and then departed for the day.
How the fire started is mystey.
This was the second Cliff House to
be destroyed by fire. The building
which was burned today was erected
by Adolph Sutro, of Sutro tunnel fame,
80 years ago. 1t was owned by the
Sutro estate and was valued at $4,000.
TAFT estimates his loss at $1,000, on
which there Is $4,000 insurance
The Cliff House was ranked as one
of the best known resorts of America
Located on rocky promontary beyond
the Golden Gate, directly above the
flashing waves of the Pacific ocean, and
affording a close view of the seals dis
porting on the rocks near shore. it was
a strong attraction for visitors, and
from its broad porches hundreds OF
thousands of people Obtained their first
view of the mighty waters. The mag
nificent Sutro baths near by were not
damaged.
The house has stood for years as one
of the monuments to the late AdOlpf
Sutro, once mayor of San Francisco
popular more because of his enterprise
in providing pleasure for San Fran
ciscans and pretty scenes for the visit
ing tourist than for any other reason
The visitor to San Francisco who fail
ed to see the Cliff House, it was always
regarded, had seen but little of the
: beauties of the city by the Golden Gate
This resort with the bathhouse ant
museum and other architectural adorn
ments of Sutro Heights, ranked as the
first attraction of San Fancisco.
For years the only means of reach

to make the premier beauty spot of the
western coast, drawing the attention
of visitors from every corner of the
world, was by novel looking DUNN,
