WANT THE HOG
 LAW ENACTED
Mass Meeting of Citizens at Hope Discusses Supreme
 Court Decision.

Hope, May 30. A mass meet ing held this afternoon for the purpose of considering the effects of the recent decision of the Su- preme Court regarding the hog law in Hampstead county and to take steps to protect crops now being made under the four-wire fence law was attended by sever al hundred people, including farmers from all parts of the county. The sentiment of the meeting was expressed in favor of the hog law or four wire fence and a resolution passed asking the representatives and senators in the next legislature to exert their influence for the passage of such a law.
 The question which now con- fronts the farmers is whether they are going to endeavor to make their crops under such a fence or put in their time build ing hog-proof fences, thus losing much of their crops through lack of working them. On a motion being made and voted upon re- garding the advisibility of keep ing hogs up only three negative votes were cast and the meeting was clearly and enthusiastically in favor of the hog law and four wire fences.

UGLY FIRE OCCURS
IN MARTZ BUILDING
CONTINUED from Page one,

tions of the building, so far as they
were able to ascertain.
The theory, so far as a theory is
possible, is that some one left a gas
burner lighted in these rooms and that
something caused the fire to spread be-
yond the burner.
The Martz building Is occupied by a
dozen or more tenants, and it is prob
able that everyone sustained either
partial or total damage from injury by
water.
When the fire was pronounced under
control there were fully six inches of
water on the fourth floor, descending
in torrents to the lower floors, either
through the floors, down the walls or
by way of the stairways, deluging
everything in the shape of contents
that lay in it's course. The greater por-
ton of the water was diverted to the
street by way of the stairway, but this
did not prevent water from two to
three inches deep overrunning the
stocks of merchandise on the floors be-
meath.
Charles Leonard, a member of the
crew of engine No. 10, was overcome by
smoke while fighting the fire and was
removed to the receiving hospital,
where he was quickly resuscitated. He
will sustain no serious injury.
Two teams in the run to the fire were
thrown to the ground, the horses at
tached to hose cart No. 4, which fell at
the corner of Third and Broadway, and
those of hose cart No II, which fell at
the corner of Fourth and Broadway.
The horses in both instances were
pushed for many feet along the street
and were believed to have been killed,
but none of them was hurt and they
were soon on their feet and at the
scene of the fire with their wagons.
An estimate of the loss sustained by
the various occupants of the building
places Cass, Smurr & Damerel compa-
ny, hardware dealers. 412 and ala
Broadway, as the heaviest losers, with
a probabie loss of $4,000, due to water.
This loss is partly covered by insur-
ance.
The Wiley B. Allen company, 416
and AIS Broadway, which occupies
two floors of the Martz building with
a very complete stock of musical iu-
struments of all kinds, including
many high-priced pianos, will doubt
less be the next largest sufferer, as it
is believed that its stock on the Sec
ond floor will be more or less a, total
loss, due to injury by water. The en-
tire contents of the ground floor were
removed from the Wiley B. Allen
company store, and the loss here will
not be so great.
The Broadway Department store
which occupied quarters on the third
and fourth floors of the building, used
as stock rooms since the fire which
occurred In their store on the opposite
side Of the street a few months ago.

BOODLERS
GET $4,000 GRAFT
Voters League Finds Banks Pay Coun-
ciImen Large Sum to Secure
Deposits of Funds of
the City

PITTSBURG. Pa. Dec. 24.-That at
least $4,000 was paid councilmen for
the selection of certain banks as de-
positories for the city's funds has been
almost positively established through
evidence submitted and statements
furnished by the Voters league and
the Scranton, Pa, detectives employed
by the league to give this city a muni-
cipal housecleaning.
Whether all of the banks selected as
repositories contributed to this fund
had not been established.
Officers of but one bank have so
far been arrested, and they are charged
with the payment of only S17, 500 of the
alleged bribery fund. That othey bank
ers are to be arrested is almost posi-
lively stated by those back of the
probe.
Mayor Guthrie, who refused to make
contracts with the bank, as authorized
by the council. on the ground that they
were Illegal, said tonight the selection
of the depositors is void because Sc
cured by bribery and fraud and that
the councils action can be set aside
without the formality of court pro-
ceedings.
The period from which the depositors
were selected expires early in Febru-
ary. The Voters league has been as
sured of all the financial backing
needed. it was stated by Vice Presi-
dent II. b. w. English tonight. The
league depends wholly upon voluntary
contributions, but Mr.. English said
any sum up to $500,000 can be secured
If needed, proffers having been made
by wealthy men of the city.
