The Newhouse vice presidential boom

He is Known from ocean to ocean as an
able and honest man, a good citizen and
a consistent and upright Democrat and
illustrates in his career /. the wonderful
possibilities of true American industry,
personal -mndedness and unques-
tionable patriotism. We feel that his
great services to this community and the
commonwealth of Utah deserve and ought
TO receive this recognition from the Utah
delegation.

Fire brands were swept across
Chelsea creek to East Boston and five
dwellings in Wadsworh street and
vicinity were consumed. The East
Boston works of the Standard Oil
company were in close proximity to
the burned buildings and for time
il was feared that they would be
reached by the flames The work Of
the firemen was directed especially
toward preventing an explosion Of the
oil tanks This work was difficult and
for a long time its success was doubt
full. as burning oil spread out over
the water and blazing emhers con-
stantly were being driven by the gale
across the creek,
While the flames We're sweeping on

firemen were making a heroic stand
at Chelsea square to prevent further

Medical Examiner MacGrath said
at 10 o'clock tonight that two bodies
had been found. A body at the cor

the medical examiner believed to be
that of a young woman perhaps 20
wears Of age. The other body was
found in the ruins of building on
Watts street This also is thought to
be that of a woman. The only pos
sihlc means of identification of either
OF the bodies is by teeth peculiarities
At this time it was also reported that
the bodies Of a woman and man
were in the ruins on Broadway, but
it was impossible to make any search
until the ruins became cooler.

hundreds of ChalOner's old friends

Stanford White was so impressed
by Chaloner's trance exhibition
that he is said to have expressed
his belief that Chaloner was insane.
Within month the young man
was examined by alienists and
taken to Bloomingdale. Though he
stoutly declared his sanity, mem
bers of his family refused to listen
to his plea, and finally by an in
genious method he succeeded in es-
Gaping from the asylum and took
up his residence in Philadelphia.
There he voluntarily placed him
self under the inspection of alien
lists, living with them, and though
they decided that was sane, his
family still refused to intercede in
his behalf in New York. Later
Chaloner bought an estate in Nir-
ginia and has since resided there,
living an apparently rational life.

FUGITIVE FROM LUNATG'S CELL, CHANLER FIGHTS
TO PROVE HIS SANITY AND REGAIN HIS Mill
HUSBAND OF AMELIA RlVES,
FAMOUS NOVELIST, is SANE
IN SOME STATES AND INSANE
IN EMPIRE STATE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-The amaz-
ing case of John Armstrong Cfalo-
ner, millionaire member of the AS
tor family, brother of Lewis Stuy-
vesant Chanler, democratic candi-
date for governor of New York,
who for seven years has been d
fugitive in the south from the
Bloomingdale insane asylum, will
soon occupy the spotlight of inter-
est in the metropolis, and may
prove to be a cause celebre from
which all future parallel cases may
date.
Legally a lunatic in New York,
Chalonor, whose name was changed
by an act of the legislature Of
North Carolina, is sane in Mary
land, Pennsylvania, Virginia and
other states in which he has re-
sided since his sensational escape
from the Bloomingdale house of
torture.
Through unique legal proceed
ure, Chaloner is to be brought back
to New York in charge of a deputy
United States marshal, the federal
court of New York having issued a
writ of immunity from arrest, good
for five days prior to and subse-
quent to the hearing of the case.
Chaloner is suing T. T. Sherman,
his legal guardian in New York
state, to recover 100000 worth of
property and prove his sanity, from
the testimony of expert alienists.
The hearing will be a dramatic
climax in Chaloner's long and des-
perate fight to prove his sanity in
his home state.
Years ago, when he was stu
dent at Columbia university. where
he acquired the degrees of bachelor
of arts and master of arts, he be-
came interested in investigation in
the realm of occult mysteries. In
the pursuit of this study he enter
tanned his rich and society bred
friends by exhibiting himself at
their homes as medium. He some
times would show himself in
trance state, his face resembling
the death mask of Napoleon. The
impersonation was declared to be
remarkably realistic.
On one occasion Chaloner eXhib-
tied himself at the studio of Stan
ford White, in the tower of Madison
Square garden. 1t was under this
tower that White met death at the
hands of Harry Thaw, and now, on
the very week that jury will be
listening to the Chaloner tragedy
