Fire destroyed the sewing and weay-

plant in Euclid avenue about o'clock
this morning, causing a loss of about
$4,000 or more and putting forty men
and women out of employment for a

cans, which should have been removed
from the building during the night,
but he doubts very much that the re-

ing the assertions of the employees
who were supposed to do that work.
Mr.. Clark said today that he could
advance no other cause for the starting
of the fire, as there were no stoves or
heat in that part of the plant.
While the fire was one of the hard
est with which the fremen have had
to cope for some time, they managed
to keep the blaze confined to the sew
ing and weaving departments. which
were in a two-story frame building on
the westerly end of the plant, and that
they did not do better work was owing
to the lack of water, as several of the

driven by Leonard c. Richler, at 130th
street and Broadway. New York, late
yesterday afternoon.
After being run down the old man
was taken to the J. Hood Wright Hos
pital, where he died shortly after
wards. The driver of the truck is in
the West 125th street police station
charged with manslaughter.
The accident occurred about
O'Clock, just as it was dusk. After rum
Ming the man down a number of wit
nesses state that the driver put on
more speed and disappeared without
ascertaining whether he had killed the
man or not.
These eye-witnesses told the police
tnat the van, a huge, covered affair
weighing several tons, was first seen
coming south in Broadway down the
steep incline at 1921 street. Among the
witnesses were several automobilists,
who said its speed must have been at
least eighteen miles an hour They
were almost transhxed with horror to
see Darcy leave the east curb of Broad
way a few rods nolth of the 1sOth street
corner and start across the street His
face was turned away from the ap-
preaching van and a passing train on
the IL" structure drowned the whirr
and rattle of the big automobile.
A few shouted warnings, but their
cries were not heard. Then the ma
chine struck the aged man. Its hood
crushed his skull, and as he fell a front
wheel rolled over him. An instant later
came the rear wheel and then the auto
mobile sped on. leaving the man uncon-
scious and dying. The chauffeur never
turned his head to see what damage
he had done.
The police, through an investigation,
learned the express company's name
from witnesses, went around to the
garage at 123d street and ST. Nicholas
avenue.
Reichier was quickly found and art
rested. He said he lost control of hiA
machine as he came down the hill. and
he saw the man standing in the street,
but could not stop.

legal cordon round London. A man named Thomas Hughes applied for an injunction against Thomas Barclay, his next door neighbor. in an endeavor to suppress what he (Hughes) considered nuisance.
 Hughes worked in city office, where he was not obliged to present himself until IT o'clock, while Barclay. who was foreman at an Acton timber yard, was required to put in an appearance at 8:30 every morning. Barclay is heavy sleeper. and to avoid being late used an alarm which went off at 5:30. The walls between the two houses are so thin that every morning Barclays clock ruthlessly woke up Hughes. Hence his suit for an injunction.
 Barclay protested that if he did not use his alarm he could not get to work in time, and if he did not get to his work he would be discharged. Hughes declared that by robbing him of his sleep, he. too, was in danger of being in no fit condition to go to work. The magistrate decided that the alarm was q nuisance within the meaning of the act, and restrained Barclay from using 1t in future.

EXPENSES REDUCED. Edward Abollshes System of Keeping Superfluous Domestics.

London, December 2s.-(Special Ca ble.)-King Edward continues his work of economy in reducing the expenses of the royal household. It is his de- cisive aim to have the domestic work of his palaces done by the smallest possible staff, and he has abolished the system of keeping full complement of servants at each of his residences.
 Only nucleus staff-suficeint to keep the place in order-is maintained at each palace. while the full staff &C., companies the court wherever 1t goes
 In other ways the King has effected economies. Several superfiuous officials have been dispensed with, and duties have been rearranged so that two or three men are no longer wasted on work that could be done by one. Vacan- cies in the household which his majes- ty does not think necessary to fill will remain vacant. and so on. The amount of money King Edward has saved in this way since he came to the throne Is enormous.

 Interest in the Harrman-Fish contest for the control of the Illinois Central in- creases rather than diminishes. The req son for this is found in the fact that MT. Hartman Is getting more unpopular every day He never has had many friends in Wall street. and the number Is con- tinually diminishing.
 He has always taken a delight in mak- ing enemies, and they are combining Al against him in a manner which threatens his downfall. There is growing willing ness in the street to admit the accuracy of MT Roosevelts characterization of him as ..an undesirable citizen," and to make him the scape goat for the popular dis trust caused by fragrant stock Jobbing methods.
 Within the last few days the number of strong people who have switched their holdings from Hartman to Fish makes formidable list and 1t Is by no means cer- tain that the autocrat of Union Pacific will be able to stem the tide.
 The weight of legal opinion as to the outcome of the injunction fight in Chi cago leans to the Fish end of the play. Against the seeming injustice of depriving Union Pacific of a right to vote It's hold ings of Illinois Central Is the offsetting fact that 1t bought into that corporation with eyes open to the knowledge that 1t was doing so in direct violation of the law of the state, and that having thus bought into an illegal situation, 1t has no standing.
