OIL TANKS BURN.

The contents Of three big oil storage
tanks vent up 10 flames and two build
iugs we're blown up by explosions heard
for miles during a FIRE among nest OF
thirty tanks at the Canton plant of the
STANDARD Oil Company near Baltimore,
yesterday. The Gre started at 3 o'clock
yesterday aft rnoon and ragged until 6
O'Clock, deiying the ERE department and
causing residents to move out.
The FIRE stared In the pumping house
OF the plant. There was aD explosion
among some Of toe machinery, and the
structure 10 q few minutes WAS enveloped
10 flames. The roof was blown skyward
with q terrific roar From the pumping
house the flames spread. A river OF
ire ran down ditch that winds its way
through the groups of tanks. With the
WFecking of the pump house the means
Of drawing the oil from the tanks was
destroyed.
During other fires 10 this plant much
properly was saved By pumping the oil
from the bottom of the tanks to other
tanks out of the danger line. In this
way the FIRE burned itself out. The
loss will reach $50, 900.

CHICAGO THE CHAMPIONS.

By shutting out the Dttroits for the
second time In two days on their own
grounds Ohicago yesterday won the
fourth game of the worlds series by a
score of 2 to 0 and the title OF worlds
champions.
The victory Of the Ohicagoes was not
unforeseen. Everybody who judged the
two teams from an unbiased stsndpoiot
conceded that the Detroit, had but one
chance iu 6fIy to win the series. That
opinion was strengthened yesterday
Jefore Donovan had pitched three balls
and the action of the Detroits ss they
strolled to their positions. The players
did not figure 10 yesterday receipts, and
their every movement showed it. Neither
team displayed that spirit which one
would expect with so much at stake-the
one because itssdidn't have to; the other
because 1t didn't want TO.

people to come before II and give amy

that the testimony obtained at the

has not been altogether satisfactory.
The committee will begin consider

man Payne was asked today II there
was any likelihood Of tariff bill be-

that it was probable; that the Ding
