Providence, Sept.

providence, sept. 1O, l@i.
Editor of the News-Democrat:
notice in a contemporary the state
ment OF Mr.. Hahn relative to the trouble
of yesterday In the engineers department
OF the Washington Real Estate Co.
The truth concreted Is that the engi-
neer was asked to do plumbing and pip
ing In addition to his duties as engineer.
Refusing very properly, another man
was brought in to replace him.
This locked him out and his fireman,
Mr. Carroll discovering the new man to
be incompetent left also.
Strangely enough there was another
Johnny on the spot" to replace Mr.. Car
roll, but who at my request left his fires
all right and quit also. leaving the incom-
petent engineer running the engine and
boilers a long distance from the engine
room, with a large number OF women and
others in consequent jeopardy.
The antics OF Mr.. Hahn led crowds TO
gather and the presence OF the police.
who would have been justified by all law
Of nature or common sense In shutting the
plant down until the safety OF the occu-
pants were better secured than from 1 to
p. m. yesterday.

Fighting desperately to control the
flames the party OF nine persons on board
all got their hands badly blistered. Four
OF the party jumped overheard.
The bodies have not been recovered.
The Ave who remained on board succeed
cd in controlling the FIRE.

BOOK PRICES IN DISPUTE.
CONTINUED from Page one.l

The same character of contract is
said to be held with all of the book
companies, and the same discrepancy
in prices occurs with all books han
died.
For instance, one Of the books that
has been retailed at $1.75 Is scheduled
in the contract with the publishers to
be sold for 1892 cents, and the mailing
price from Chicago, $1.35.
The question was brought to the at
tention Of President q. H. Black of the
Lewiston Normal school, and who is a
member of the state textbook commits
sion. In speaking Of the discrepancy
in prices, Mr.. Black said:
"All we can say at present is that
the intent of the law so far as obtain
ing books at the cheaper price named
in the contract is concerned, is not ac-
tually being realized, and since this
means thousands of dollars to the peo-
pie of Idaho, if the same conditions
hold at other depository points, It is
our duty as a textbook commission 20
see that the book companies deliver
books at the depositaries at prices
stipulated in the bids. am speaking,
of course, only from conditions exist
ing here. If the textbook companies
have issued instructions which do not
conform to the intent of the law, the
error will be corrected"

GREAT BATTLE IN WHEAT PIT
Wheat Jumps Two Cents in Two
Minutes, and Pit Goes Wild.

Chicago Wheat performed the re-
markablc feat Of 2cent jump in two
minutes today, aud the pit went wild
with excitement. Schwab and Patten
continued their desperate battle Tor
control Of wheat in the Chicago pit,
and at the close OF the day Patten and
his bull crowd had forced the price up
from , to . Is cents over the low point
of the day
The board Of trade stood by and fol-
lowed the lead Of the Schwab and Pat
ten forces, every turn of the market
showing the leadership of the two bat
tIing giants Of the pit Every Offering
of biz proportions was followed by u
sharp downward break and every big
purchase with corresponding reac'
ton, Just as sharp The hand OF the
big manipulators was in evidence every
where, but at the end OF the day Patten
and the bulls had forced prices mp :
cents on the average.
The crop shortage is now estimated
at l25 900, 900 bushels, while the market
shortage is declared to he 225, 100000.
The bulls received assistance today,
when, for the first time in history, the
Chicago market sold ieedstutfs to
Spain. An order for 1000 sacks oil
wheat for Madrid helped boost prices.
The markets Of the world are now de-
handing from 100000 to 100000
bushels Of wheat per week from the
United States.
