IN WAREHOUSE
BURNED ONE BALE
Close Call at the Parker
Warehouse.

Fire broke out at s o'clock last
night in the storage warehouse of E.
C. Parker, but the prompt and effec-
tive work Of the department confined
the flames to a very narrow space
though for a time the danger was
very great
Hundreds of bales cotton stored in
the large warehouse, yet only two
bales were damaged, and these not
very badly.
Police officers Ross and Powell
smelled burning cotton and made a
hasty investigation of two other ware
houses before going to the Parker
warehouse, where they found the fire,
which was just getting under good
headway.
When the fire department arrived
two minutes later the two burning
bales were quickly isolated.
They were deluged with water, and
the last vestige of fire extinguished.
AS a precautionary measure a watch
man remained during the night near
the two damaged bales to see to it
that they did not blaze again.
1t was a close call from what might
have been a very extensive and cost
ly fire.
1t is thought that one cotton bale
was on fire, inside, when placed in
the warehouse yesterday, and may
have been in that condition when
received at the warehouse.

tables of delegates to show how
their men are sure of winning AS
there have been less than half a doz-

are evidently ignoring the old adage
not to count your chickens before

Mr. Cannon, of Illinois, is really
ahead of all other candidates, for he
actually has two Michigan delegates
instructed to vote for him
1t is the general opinion of the
leaders that the political situation will
not take on definite shape until the
meeting of the Republican National
Committee in this city in December,
when the date will be fixed for next
years convention and the city in
which the latter is to be held will
be selected.

The first man to be rescued was
Doc" Carroll his body being burn
ed almost to crisp. His sufferings
were SO intense that he pleaded to
be shot to end his misery. He died
few minutes after being dragged
out.
News of the awful accident was
sent to Terre Haute, and physicians
hurried out on special train on the
Big Four and in automobiles,
Not a house was left standing in
the town after the powder maga-
zine was touched off.
No theory of the explosion can be
confirmed, as the men in the first
building were either killed or too
badly injured to tell anything. Spon-
