BY FEAR -MADDENtD TRRONG
Cause of Fright VIII Never be
KnOWn--NO Fire and No Alarm
Given Crowded Doorway
Caused General Scramble
Resulting In Crush.

Barnsley, York, Eng, Jan. 11.-A
senseless stampede of men and wom-
en- as a crowd was leaving a theatre
i'm this city last night resulted in six
teen persons, several of them chill
dren in arms, being crushed to
death. What started the panic will
probably never be known. There was
no fire, no cry of fire and cause for
a panic as far as can be learned.
The crowd surged towards the
narrow exits and as those in front
were struggling to escape from the
building there was a sudden crush
of people from behind. Men fought
with each other like wild animals
to reach the exit and women and
children were forgotten.
Women TrampIei Under Feet.
Several women were knocked to
the floor and terribly bruised and
crushed. One woman was trampled
almost to a pulp beneath the heels
of the crowd. After the crowd had
succeeded in reaching the street 1T
was learned that there had been nc
danger of any kind to precipitate
such a crush. The men aided In
caring for the injured until the ar
rival of officers, who drove the peo-
pie back and continued the work OF
rescue.
The stampede of people was the
most fatally curious occurrence ever
recorded in this country.

TAFT AGAIN FOR
PHILIPPINE TARIFF
Bill VIII Come Before Congress for
Passage Again.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 11.-Ef-
forts are to be renewed soon for a
Philippine tariff bill along the lines
of the measure which went through
the house two years ago and was
snothered in the senate. Secretary
Taft is Just as much in earnest about
1T now as he was then. and IS going
after a bill regardless of any effect
his course may have on his candidacy
for the republican presidential NOM
nation He has been working with
several senators the last few days.
and expects soon 10 reach an ar
rangement which will Justify the In
PRODUCTION of the bill he wants.
He is willing now to make some
concession to the sugar and tobacco
interests, which defeated his meas
ure two years ago. This concession
will be in the nature of Limitation
on the amount OF sugar and tobacco
which may be imported into the
United States from the Philippines in
year. In the talk which has been
had already the limit on sugar has
been set at $50 million pounds and
that on cigars at about million.
That figure is within a few million
pounds Of the greatest amount OF
sugar ever exported from the Philip
pines in one year. The intention Is
to make the new bill provide for free
trade with the Islands on all articles
except sugar, rice and tobacco.

New York, Jan. ll.-Currency,
which was at considerable prem
ium short time ago, Is now some
thing of a drug on the market ac-
cording to officials of the savings
banks which within a few days have
been flooded with deposits. The
large amounts of currency received
have caused the ten per cent limit
which these institutions are allowed
to carry in cash, to oe exceeded in
many instances.
The surplus has been turned over
to their depositors, the state and
national banks and trust companies.

The weekly statement of the clear
ing house banks showed a surplus
of reserves under the requirements
of the 25 per cent reserve rule to-
day for the first time since the f1nan-
cial stringency began In October
The surplus was $6,Os4,050.
An increase of s17,593,6OO pro"

shown as compared with last week

New York. Jan. 1.-THE attor-
neys in the Thaw trial are taking to-
day off, having succeeded at last in
securing a jury, which it is quite like
ly will hear the case.
Today was used by the lawyers in
going over their testimony for the
last time before the actual trial be-
gins.
Monday morning when court Is
called to order the real trial of Har-
ry X. Thaw for the killing of Stan
ford White will be on IN earnest.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan
will open with a brief address after
which the peoples case will be put
in. 1t Is not likely that more than
three hours will be required by the
prosecution in outlining its case. The
Thaw jury will find its task anything
but an easy one. 1t will be kept un-
der the closest guard from today un-
til the last minute of the trial. 1t
will have to sit in the jury box for
Ions hours while the attorneys are
wading through masses of evidence
and II will have to give the strictest
attention to scientific evidence from
insanity and medical experts in or

death of Harry X. Thaw.

Probably Bar Evelyn's Story.
one thing which will probably be
absent from the trial will be the har-
rowing testimony of Evelyn Thaw.
1t is understood Jerome will make
every effort to prevent the introduce
ton of her testimony and Thaw's
counsel Is reported not to be overly
anxious for the girl to testify.
Evelyn Thaw is in a peculiar posi-
ton. Every one who has been in
the court room during the past week
has noticed that Harry Thaw pays
but little attention to the pretty wo-
man who Is indirectly responsible for
his present position.
When she smiles at him as she
frequently does, he gives her but
scant attention and once he was even
noticed scowling at her.
Thaw Family Sights Evelyn.
1t is noticeable that the members
of the Thaw family are not paying
much attention to young Mrs. Thaw.
She sat in court yesterday next to
Mrs. George Lauder Carnegie and
Josiah Thaw. About o'clock Mrs.
Carnegie and Josiah Thaw left the
court room for the day, leaving
young Mrs Thaw alone. For time
she did not have any one near her,
but Dan O'Rielly's brother came in
and sat at her side. If the young
woman is not getting any support
from the Thaw family she Is not
showing any signs of being depressed
! The few amusing incidents that oc-
Cured in the dreary job of getting a

ready smile showed. She smiled at

very responsive. 1t is apparent that

New York, Jan. 11.-Scores of
fremen began this morning search
ing in the ruins of the Parker build
ing at Tenth street and Fourth ave-
rue for the bodies of three firemen
reported missing after calling the roll
of the companies that took part In
lighting a spectacular fire that de-
stroyed a thirteen story building last
night causing loss variously esti-
mated al amounts reaching a total
of six million dollars.
The fire was in the upper stories
and gained great headway uncheck-
ed. being beyond the reach OF the
fire department water towers.
Many Rescued on Ladders.
Sensational rescues of men, women
and children from the upper stories
of the building, formed the chief
feature of the firemen's work.
A dozen people were brought down
n the frail pompier ladders while
others were passed from fireman to
fireman down the big extension lad
ders and finally reached the street in
safety.
A score or more of fireman were
injured, some of them perhaps fatal
iy. One fireman of the pompier
crew, failed to hook his ladder se-
curey in a window and fell four
stories to a net. He was not injured.
Another fireman jumped into the net
after remaining in the upper stories
until driven out by the flames. He
was slightly hurt.
Robert Boyer, a printer who was
At work in the building when the
rire broke out, is missing and it is
beieved he was overcome by flames
ana is dead. His body has not been
foGnd.
All of the dead were burned un-
til Identification is almost impossible.
Fire Under Control but Not Out.
The fire was officially declared to
be under control at Z a.. m. today but
Deputy Chief Binns warned the po-
lice to keep the crowds as far away
as possible from the wrecked build
ing as there was danger that 1t might
collapse.
The service on the trolley line and
| in the subway Of the buildings was
suspended lest the building might
| collapse and crash into the under

Flames Smouldered for an Hour.
From Information given by the
occupants of surrounding buildings il
| Is believed the fire was in progr ass
| fully an hour before it was discov-
cred.
Superintendent Fullerton of the
American Lithographic company, di-
| rectly across the street, smelled
smoke an hour before the alarm was
! given but could not locate the source
Deputy Bnns said the reason the
fire gained such headway was a lack
oc water pressure.

Mr. Mcfarland Delays Recon-.
meudation for Dog and Cat Tar

Commissioner Mcfarland has decided to
postpone recommending legislation to in
crease the annual tax on dogs in the Dis
trict and to place similar annual tax
on cats. and wait until he has collected
sufficient information on the subject from
other cities before reconsidering it,
After careful consideration of the nu-
merous arguments pro and con that have
been sent to him under his request for
the views Of citizens he has returned the
draft of the bill increasing the dog tax
and placing a tax on cats to DR.. Wood
ward. who prepared 1t for him. with the
request that he will revise it so as to
reduce the proposed taxes and otherwise
alter 1T to meet some of the objections
raised to it. Mr.. Macfarland said last
evening that it was not his intention to
press the consideration Of the bill at this
time. He wanted to obtain informatio
from other cities In this country and
abroad before bringing the matter before
the Commissioners. and 1t would probably
be several months before he could get
all the Information he desired.
He said that the general public seemed
to approve the principle of the measure.
although there were differences as to the
details. that those who opposed it en-
tirely, as rule, stated frankly that 1t was
because they did not want to pay in
crea Sed taxes.
