Chicago, July 1S.-Frank H. Hitch

tional committee in Chicago yesterday
on his way to Colorado Springs,
where the first of two conferences
with western Republicans will be held,
outlined the general plan on which the
campaign for Taft and Sherman viii

be n of argument. To reach he
voters with the presentation of the
case, distributing centers will be es-
tablished in New York, Chicago, and
further west, probably in Denver.
There will be the customary use Of
spell-binders, but Mr.. Hitchcock is not
inclined to rely so much on oratory as
he is to depend on reasoning. The
middle west is regarded as the battle
ground Of the campaign, and for this
re ason the principal headquarters of
the national committee will be main
tanned in Chicago, where the national
chairman expects to be most of the
time during the active work for the
ticket.
B~usinesslike Campaign.
Quarters will be secured in an Office

He announced right off the bat or

windows were heavily barred and but
two doors led TO the building. One door
communicating with the outside was
barred from the inside and, being Of iron
could not be forced The second door lei
to the east wing of the reformatory, and
when it was opened a dense volume Of
smoke filed the wing.
The prisoners became frightened and
panic was only averted by marching
fifty Of them from the wing to secure
quarters in the basement
After considerable delay the fremen
were able to get at the fire which had
then enveloped the walls and burned off
The roof Of the laundry ana the flames
were extinguished
Besides the damage to the building
the reformatory baths, some eighty in
number, used by the prisoners, we're de-
stroyed.
No one had been in the building for
three hours previous to the breaking
out Of the fire and the cause is not
known.
