THIRTEEN PERISH
IN TENEMENT FIRE
BODIES OF VICTIMS FOUND HUp-

TERRIFIC HEAT MAKES WORK OF
RESCUE By FIREMEN I'M
POSSIBLE.

New York, Nov. 27-Thirteen per-
sons lost their lives and several 9TH

tenement house fire at One Hundred
and Ninth street and Second avenue
All the dead are Italians. Seven of
the thirteen were children. The bodies
were found huddled together in rooms
on the top floor of the four-story build
ing, where the terror-stricken people
had been driven by the flames, which
rushed up from the lower floors. They
had succumbed before they could
reach windows which led to the fire
escapes. Some bad been enveloped I'm

overcome by smoke, were spared the

Work Of Incendiaries.
That the fatal fire was the work
of incendiaries, who sought revenge,
is the opinion Of the police and fire.
men who made the first hasty exami-
nation. Three weeks ago three Ital-
fans were caught in the act of at
tempting to rob the saloon of Cut
seppe Cudano, on the ground floor.
The safe contained over $4,000, which
the saloonkeeper's friends had with
drawn from banks during the money
panic.
The would-be robbers were arrested
and are now awaiting trial. The fire
of yesterday started in Cudanos sa-
loon, and the police believe that it
may have been the work of friends
of the prisoners, who took this means
of squariDg the account with the sa-
loonkeeper.
Find Piles Of Dead.
So quickly did the flames spread
that almost before the firemen arrived
the whole building was furnace and
it was impossible for any one to enter.
After the flames had been partially
checked, the firemen fought their way
through the smoke to the upper floors.
There they came upon piles of dead
where they had fallen victims to the
rush of flames and smoke even before
they had chance to attempt to save
themselves.

1900 ARABS FALL IN FIGHT.
10000 Trbesmen in Reckless On
slaught on French.


Makhnia, Algeria, Nov. 81. - Ten
thousand of the f1ercest Benis Nassen
tribesmen swooped down on the
French camp Sunday and were beaten
off with a loss of 1900 killed. The
lighting continued for long time and
was conducted on the part of the
trlbesmen apparently with total disre.
gard for their lives.
AT one time the French infantry
were in danger of being surrounded,
but they finally disengaged themselves
from their perilous position by a most
brilliant charge of the Spahis
Arabs Put to Rout.
The rout of the Arabs was com.
pleted by vigorous Smelling by the ar
tillery. The French loss was eight
killed
The Arabs were not discouraged by
this severe repulse, but reformed their
forces, and in addition directed their
efforts to rousing other tribes. The
fighting was resumed yesterday and
the booming of cannon could be heard
throughout the afternoon The results
of the battle now on are unknown at
present.
Drawn Into Ambush.
Lalla, Magma, Nov. 27.-During the
pursuit of the enemy the Spahis were
drawn itno ambush and Lieut.. Bose,
who was riding in front, fell ridd1ed
with bullets, but the troopers rallied
and threw themselves upon the
Arabs in ambush, cutting them to
pieces. The French forces followed
up their advantage and securing the
country killed many of the fugitives.
The artillery bombarded the mountain
slopes where the remainder of the
tribesmen had taken refuge.

companied by Assistant Secretary of
State Robert Bacon, went to the

appointment. The object of the visit
was not divulged, but it was believed
to be in relation to the financial sit
uation. Upon leaving the White
House, after having been with the
president an hour and half, Mr.. Nor
gan said that financial conditions in
New York were reassuring.
Situation Satisfactory.
He said that everything possible
was being done to relieve the money
stringency and that the situation was
satisfactory.
Mr.. Morgan said also that his object
In coming to Washington was to see
Secretary Cortelyou in furtherance Of
the conference he had with the secre-
tary in New York last week, at which
time means were discussed for the
further relief of the situation.
He saw Secretary Cortelyou before
going to the White House and called
on President Roosevelt last night to-
pay his respects.
An important announcement Of pol.
icy was made by Secretary Cortelyou
yesterday in regard to the allotment
of the new one-year treasury certifi.
Gates, which indicate that the secre-
tary is prepared to cut red tape as
far as possible and place the pro-

MANY APPLICATIONS FOR GER
TIFIcA1Es RECEIVED AT
THE TREASURY.
COUNTRY BANKS ARE BLAMED
OFFICIALS HOPE TO PUT STOP
TO PRACTICE OF BOARDING
CURRENCY.

Washington, Nov. %. - Secretary
Cortelyou stated yesterday that he
was we'll satisfied with the number O,
| applications so far received at the de
partment for treasury certificates, and
that he already had made some allot
| ments, but he maintained his usual
reticence when questioned as to the
number and amounts involved. The
secretary said that he had decided moi
to make any public statement as tc
the details connected with the issue OF
certificates until the Panama cana
bond issue had been disposed Of
shortly after Nov. 80.
To Use His Discretion.
The discretion reservation in his
original offer OF per cent certificates
that $50.o00o00 will be allotted by the
secretary in his discretion upon offers
Of subscriptions addressed to him has
brought a great variety Of orders and
suggestions, among which it is some
what difficult to choose as to what is
most advantageous to the government
and the financial situation.
The attitude Of the New York banks
In furnishing currency to country cor
respondents in such amounts as they
can spare without impairing their re
serve unduly has not been the subject
Of official criticism either at the
White House or at the treasury de
partment. Il is felt that il criticism
lies against any institutions for hoard
ing cash 1t is the country banks rather
than those Of New York
Would Stop boarding.
New York banks are known to have
rejected demands for currency from
country banks where they knew thai
the applicants already had much
larger reserve than is required by Law
and In many cases larger than the q
per cent required in reserve cities
The weekly statement of the New
York banks speaks for itself as to the
reserve held there, and indicates the
heavy drafts which have been met
from country banks. 1t is hoped By
the administration that the entire
policy of boarding will come to az
end when the government receives
the large amount Of money which are
expected from the sale of Panama
bonds and the one-year certificates.
