ONE KILLED AND MANY
INJURED AT BIG FIRE

Captain Ryan's engine with his crew
and the crews of two engines were
working in an alley outside the build
ing when an explosion in the paint
room on the four floor ripped out
the west wall, sending tons of brick
down on the firemen and burying half
a dozen in the ruins
A hundred men with picks and shov-
els at once went to work pulling their
comrades out of the ruins, while
scores of Oilers turned their atten-
ton to the fat houses to which the
fire had spread. Captain Ryan was
the first man taken from the heap of
debris by the rescuers. He was hOr-
ribly crushed, but still alive, when
taken out and laid on the ground in
the driving rain. The priests knelt
by his side and administered the last
sacrament of his church a moment
before Ryan died. One by one the
other firemen were dug out and hur-
ried away to the hospital
In short time the fire in the car
barn had practically burned itself Out
and the fiat houses in the rear had
been damaged to the extent of $4,000
Three hundred open or summer cars,
valued at $4,000 each, which had been
stored in the barn, were destroyed.

UPHELD FINDING OF THE
COMMISSION I'M LUNACY

New York. Apr. S.-When the
Thaw trial opened this morning, 1t
was believed that it had at last Ell
tered on its final week. Eleven weeks
already have been consumed in the
trial, making it the longest in the his
tory of New York criminal courts.
Harry Thaw's family were early in
court and took the seats they have
occupied on all occasions when they
have been allowed in the court room
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw wore the familiar
blue suit and the black sailor hat
which several days ago replaced the
blue one trimmed with ViOlets which
she wore during the early days Of the
trial. She occupied a seat on the
aisle. Next to her sat Mrs. William
Thaw. the Countess of Yarmouth and
Edward ThSw. In the front row OF
seats were Mr.. and -Irs- George l.
Carnegie and Josiah Thaw-
Justice Fitzgerald was a few min
uteS late in taking the bench.
When he aid so and before the jury
had been brought into the room, Dis
trict Attorney Jerome arose and said
he would formally ask that the report
of the commission in lunacy which
declared that Thaw was sane, be not
confirmed He had no argument TO
offer Justice Fitzgerald reached for
the commissions report which lay
on his desk and signed his name
across it.
The trial will proceed he or
dered. The jury then filed into the
box and Harry Thaw was called TO
the bar
Mr.. DeImas. of counsel for the de
tense. asked the clerk to call DR.. Al
Ian McLane Hamilton, the alienist.
who was on the sU2nd when the trial
was interrupted more than two weeks
ago. MIR. Delmas wanted to get from
DR.. Hamilton the opinion that Thaw
was insane when he shot and killed
Stanford White
As soon as Dr. Hamilton was seated
in the witness chair, District Attorney
Jerome Obiacted He said DR.. Hamil-
ton should have been called as = wit
ness for the defense in It's direct case
To call him in sur-Tebuttal, he de-
clared. meant the Te-OpeninS OF the
entire case.
Justice Fitzgerald sustained the
objection.
After he had done so, Mr.. Delmas
argued that Dr.. Hamilton should be
allowed 10 testify for the reason that
District Attorney Jerome had on the
last day of the trial said he would
withdraw his objection if Dr.. Hamil-
ton was allowed 70 tell everything
We accepted that offer" said Mr..
Delmas, and therefore feel we have
III right TO proceed under the agree
ment"
This court. as I understand the
law" said Justice Fitzgerald, has
no discretion in the matter. There

CUBAN QUESTION
VERY SERIOUS
In the Opinion Of Former
Ambassador Andrew
D. White.
D. White
BY Associated Press

New YORK, Apt. 6.-Former AmDas-
sador Andrew w. White, who returned
yesterday on the steamship Bluecher,
after a cruise in the Caribbean sea,
said of Cuba, which he visited:
Il regard the Cuban question as
more serious than our Philippine prob
lem Cuba is Il great n6A-ro state, in
capable of self-government. and every
thing that I saw while there strength
ems my conviction that Cuba as state
would be a curse to us-simply vast
rotten borough with a few wealthy
men in the midst of negro popula-
tion. Incompetent to govern them
selves. to say nothing of aiding the
of the United States. If
Cuba were made state of the Union.
* would, in my opinion. rapidly be-
come a curse TO itself and the nation"
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1907-04-09

The spring term of the circuit
court for Escambia county convened
yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. Judge
]. Emmett Wolfe presiding and State
Solicitor J. Walter KehOe in attend
ance. With the exception of select
ing and instructing a grand jury
there was no business in the court.
The regular Yenire was called and
after the selection of a grand Jury of
eighteen men there were not enough
jurors left to form the petit juries,
so a special Venire was issued, made
Teturnable this morning, when the
juries will be empanelled and possibly
some civil cases called.
The Grand Jury.
The grand jury, after being
empaneled, proceeded TO the grand
jury room in the armory. where
w NJ. Kilbee as foreman and
H. H. jeanette as clerk. The
following compose the jury: W. II.
Kilbee, H. II. Jeanette. William
Bailey, J. G. Yniestra, J. B. Steward,
Hines Cravey, J. c. COwan. j. II.
King. Robert Bond, w. H. Mayo, J.
F. Coppersmith. z. A. Macarthur. j.
T. Merritt, John Eggart, ]. A. Faux,
j, A. Daw, J. d. Goss and r. NJ. Elem
ming.
Charge to Jury.
The charge to the jury by Judge
Wolfe was an able one. He instruc
ted the body as TO its duties in a man
ner which could not be misunderstood
by the members, and during the
course of his remarks he paid a com
pliment TO Judge Beggs and Solicitor
LOftin. In instructinS the jury to in
veStigate only capital cases he stated
that Escambia county has a criminal
court of record, a very efficient judge
and an energetic county solicitor, and
it was therefore unnecessary for the
jury to investigate matters other than
those of a capital nature. He also
informed the jury that the custom OF
investigating the books of county Of
ficialS was also unnecessary unless
the jury believed that such an inYesti-
cation should be made. This is due
TO the fact that the state provides an
auditor who can 20 more thoroughly
into the books and accounts than can
a jury which sits only a short time.
The Sweat Case.
The murder of James Sweat, which
CURED five or six years ago at Mus
cOgee. will probably receive the at
tention of the grand jury during the
term A negro, who was arrested at
MuscOgee several months since is
now in Jail here charged with being
implicated in the murder of the young
man. This negro. ii is alleged, was
the partner Of the negro killed in
Mississippi some months since, after
he had been arrested by deputies for
the murder of Sweat.
