Pittsburg, Nov. 19:-From an au-

has leaked out that the worlds

Fred Tenney at first base next sea-

promised Barney Dreyfuss that, IL
the New York first baseman should

II Pittsburg has not yet made an

The scheme that will be outlined
is to draft a rule which Will require
the quarterback, or any other player,
to be five yards back of the centre,
or the scrimmage line when the first
pass from the snapper back is re-
ceived-that Is, instead of the ball
being received from the centre by a
man playing right up against him, it
must be passed directly back fifteen
feet to be legal pass, and, with five
yards to cover before the scrimmage
1 line is reached by the runner, It will
be impossible to charge through the
opening forwards, who would have
ample time to break through and get
the man with the ball before he was
fairly started forward. No matter
how strong the opposing line, this
would force a man outside the tack
les, a forward pass, or a quick kick
of some sort, and would of necessity
open the game.

Cherry. H., Nov. 24.-Cherry and
its residents rested for a brief per-
iod yesterday before beginning the
crucial struggle to rescue the living
or carry the dead from the 500 foot
level of the ST Paul mine.
Tidings spread that the fire in the
second vein had broken out anew.
All preparations for further eXplor-
ing the vein were halted, while
Chicago firemen attacked the blaze,
which threatened the main shaft.
The contest with the fire continued
for several hours, during which the
rescuers threw themselves on cots,
blankets, or the floor of the oiler
house to be awakened when all was
ready for them to descend.
After experiencing all the terror
of the long imprisonment and the
10y of being brought to the surface
.alive, David Holofchek, one OF the

THE ROOF BURNED OFF BU|LOIhG
Ey the Heroic Work of the fiTemen
u Disastrous Confiagiation Is
Ayertcd.

Heroic work, cool heads and good
generalship on the part of the city
firemen prevented a disastrous con-
fIagration in the business houses on
the south side of the square Tuesday
night. Early in the evening fire was
discovered on the second floor OF
the NJ. Levy double two-story build
ing and in a few minutes after the
alarm was turned in the firemen
were fighting desperately to keep
the flames confined within the walls
of this building. One of the worst
difficulties encountered by the fire
men was the fact that the fire was
burning on each side of the hallway
which runs the entire length of the
building Having TO alternate be-
tween these two places it looked at
one time as though the building
would be destroyed in spite of the
three or four streams of water be-
ing directed against the flames. BY
persistency and by taking desperate
chances the firemen finally got two
lines of hose up the stairway and
were then enabled TO fight the fire
to much better advantage.
Two or three large sections OF the
roof were burned off and one or two
holes were burned in the floor
c. D. Pickett and w. d. Fielder
had their cotton offices located on
the second floor Mr. Picketts loss
on cotton samples will amount to
about $50, while Mr.. Felder's loss
is estimated at about $75.
Pete Ellis occupied both divisions
of the first floor. On one side was
his restaurant and on the other the
Empire theatre. The loss sustained
by Mr. Ellis will amount to about
$4,000. His restaurant was insured
for about $1,000 There was no in
surance on the theatre.
The building is owned by NJ. Levy
of New York, and the damage to the
structure is estimated at about
$4,000, fully covered by insurance.
