OF TWENTY
STORES BURNED
TO GROUND
Central Arcade, Schenectady,
Completely Destroyed
LOSS WILL BE 100000
Building Was Formerly Machine Shop
and First Monitor Was Built
There by clute Brothers

Schenectady, Feb 2.-The Central
Arcade, consisting of twenty stores
on the ground floor and Offices, socie-
W rooms and printing plant above
was destroyed by fire yesterday. Two
alarms were turned in, calling the en-
tire department, and the best endeav
ors of the fire2en we're futile to
check the flames The entire struc.
ture at a. m. was mass of ruins
though the walls had not yet fallen.
The building is located between the
New York Central tracks and the
Erie canal and extends from Union TO
Liberty street. There are no adiac
ent structures, so the fire did not
spread beyond the building in which
it started.
The fire started in a saloon at the
corner Of the canal and Liberty street
and was well under Roadway when
the alarm was turned in.
The building was worth over &c.
600. was owned by Mrs. Anne Van
Dusen and partly insured. The stock
IN the various stores is a total loss
and as yet no accurate estimate can
be made, though it will reach over
$4,000. The Central Arcade was
formerly the Clute Brothers machine
shop, where the famous United States
Monitor which defeated the Merit
mac during the civil war, was built.
The firemen fought the flames with
the temperature eight degrees below
zero and scores of them were frost.
bitten.
When the fire reached Ryans gar
age a gasoline tank exploded, hurled
a fireman forty feet and landed him
on the railroad embankment- He was
badly bruised. There were three
smaller explosions when the tanks OF
the automobiles blew up. One of the
machines belonged to the city.
The new gasoline fire engine was
given a thorough test under the most
unfavorable conditions, and far ex-
celled the two steamers which we're
also playing streams on tho fire. The
loss on building and stock is placed
at 100000. There was 100000 insur-
ance on the structure, and about Sl0,-
600 on stock The cause of the fire is
a mystery.

Advice and Prescription by Eminent
Authority to Cure kidneys and
Bladder

The people here do not drink
enough water TO keep healthy" ex-
claimed a well known authority The
numerous cases of kidney and bladder
diseases and rheumatism are mainly
due to the fact that the drinking Of
water natures greatest medicine, has
been neglected.
Stop loading your system with med
icines and cure-alls; but get on the
water wagon. If you are really sick,
why, of course, take the proper med
icines-plain common vegetable treat
ment, which will not shatter the ner-
yes or ruin the stomach"
To cure rheumatism you must make
the kidneys do their work; they are
the filters of the blood They must
be made TO strain out OF the blood the
waste matter and acids that cause
rheumatism; the urine must be neu-
tralized so It will no longer be a
source of irritation to the bladder and,
most of all. you must keep these acids
from forming In the stomach. This
is the cause of stomach trouble and
poor digestion For these conditions
you can do no better than take the
following prescription Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound
Kargon. one ounce; Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by
shaking well in bottle and take in tea

TRUSTS
CANNOT COLLECT
THEIR BILLS
Decision For vOight & Sons
Blow to Corporations
IOBBERS NEED NOT PAY
Jusice Harlan Holds Continental Wall
Paper Company to Be illegally
Organized.

Washington, Feb LIT one owes
money to a corporation operating in
violation of the Sherman law, he need
not worry over payment. The trust
cannot collect the bill.
This, in effect, is the decision OF the
United States Supreme court handed
down today in the case of the Contln-
entail Wall Paper Company against
the Louis Voight & Sons company OF
Ohio.
The suit was brought by the Contin
entail Well Paper company on a debt
of S56162 the payment of which was
resisted by Voight & Sons company
on the ground that the paper company
is a trust
II was further asserted by Voight
& Sons company that they had
bought over 100000 worth OF paper
on which they had paid 80 per cent
more than they would have had 10
pay II there had been competition.
When the case went against the cor
poration in the Circuit court for the
Sixth district an appeal Immediately
was taken by the Wall Paper Trust
TO the Supreme court of the United
States.
Justice Harlan submitted the decis
ion, which practically draws the teeth
of the trusts.
THE Continental Wall Paper com
pany said Justice Harlan. seeks in
legal effect the aid of the court TO
enforce a contract for the sale and
purchase OF goods which II is admit
ted by the demurrer, was in fact and
was intended by the parties to be
based upon agreements that were and
are essential parts Of an Illegal
scheme
If the facts stated in the third de-
tense are sufficient to prevent any re-
covery whatever by the plaintiff It is
not necessary TO 90 further and con
slider the questions raised by the
other dofenses
Having eliminated the other defen-
SEES. the brief proceeded 10 discuss at
length, he main features of the Sher
man antitrust law Especial empha
sis was laid on the clauses of the law
prohibiting any attempj to restrain
trade or control the prices of goods
offered for sale in the open market.
IN conclusion Justice Harlan said:
Upon the whole case and without
further citation of authority, we ad.
Judge upon the admitted facts that
the combination represented by the
plaintiff in the case. was illegal un-
der the Antitrust Act Of 1890 is to
be taken as one intended and which
would have the effect directly, to re-
strain, and monopolize trade among
the several states and with foreign
states, and that the plaintiff cannot
have a judgment for the amount of
the account sued on, because such q
judgment would in effect be In aid
Of the execution of agreements consti-
tuting that Illegal combination. We
consequently held that the Circuit
Court of Appeals properly sustained
the third defense in the case, and
rightly dismissed the suit
The case was decided against the
wall paper company by majority of
one. Justice Holmes filed a dissent
ing opinion, which was concurred in
by Justices Brewer, White and Peck
ham. The dissenting opinion held. in
effect, that. a lawful purchase is not
made unlawful merely by being the
falfillment of an unlawful contract
