Smod's Action ON the Black
Charges Criticised.

There is probability Of an appeal being
made 10 the General Assembly from the de-
eision Of the Presbyterian Synod In its dis
r;issing the heresy charges against the
Presbytery Of New York. That the charges
against the Presbytery growing out OF the
ordination OF the Rev. Archibald Black
should be laid before the General Assembly
is the opinion Of some OF the Members of
the committee which made the heresy
charges
Action in regard TO an appeal must be
made known to the sstated clerk OF the
Synod, the Rev. DIR. Jacks, at Geneva
n. Y. within ten days.
In the event OF an appeal no action on Il
would be taken until the General Assembly
meets in Atlantic City In May.

TYING UP SERVICE CORPORATIONS
StOecker Bill Places Control of All
Under Railway Commission
(From a Staff Corresponds

Prom a Staff Correspondent @
LINCOLN, Feb. 1.-(Special )-Stoecker of
Douglas county would place in the hands
of the State Railway commission practi-
cally complete control over every public
franchise corporation in Nebraska, and to
that end he has introduced H.. r. 239, which
was read a first time today.
The bill provides that no corporation OPP
Grating under a franchise shall extend that
franchise or exercise any of dts rights
without first having obtained the. consent
of the railway commission.
1t provides further, that no corporation
operating under a franchise shall assign,
transfer or lease, nor shall it make any
contract or agreement affecting its fran
chise without first obtaining permission of
the railway commission.
1t prohibits any corporation operating
under a franchise from obtaining the cap
ital stock OF any other corporation orga-
nized under the laws of the state, unless
authorized to do so by the railway COM
mission. This does not apply to stock al
ready acquired. xza??k!k!k
To issue bonds, notes or other evidence
of Indebtedness for more than twelve
months for the acquisition Of property, 1t
is necessary first, for the corporation to
secure permission from the railway COM
mission.
The bill provides a heavy penalty for &
failure to comply with its terms.

HEAVY LOSS FOR MISS SCANLAN
D~ressmaker Loses Twenty-Five Hun
dred I'm Crounse Block Fire and
Has No Insurance.

Miss Mary Seaman. a dressmaker whose
workshop and residence is room 6 Of the
Crounse block, southeast corner of Six
tenth and Capitol avenue. lost all her
possessions and was herself almost cut off
from escape in a fire at 3:15 Monday after
noon. The blaze completely ruined her
apartment and its contests, doing over
$3.50 damage. 1t is not known just how It
originated.
John Seaman, a brother of Miss Seaman,
happened to be in her room when the fire
started, end she says that his presence
was all that saved her from being burned
to death. Both were cut off from the door
by the flames, which originated near a
coal box and another door leading to the
next room. Miss Seaman started to rescue
some of her more precious belongings, but
her brother saw the danger she was in
and dragged her past the fire and through
the door into the hall.
The room was a furnace of flame within
a minute, and everything in the place was
practically destroyed before the firemen
arrived. Their prompt work limited the
blaze to the room of Miss Seaman. Pas
quode Massel and Jacob Ringle. tailors &C.
'cupying the rooms on each side of Miss
Scanlan's shop; a printing shop, and the
private apartments OF S. b. Stewart. es-
capped with only slight damage from smoke
and water, or else were left entirely with
out damage.
Assistant Fire Chief Simpson says that
the fire had its origin in Miss Scanlan's
apartments, although it was thought at
first that It started in Massei's room near
the door between his shop and Miss Scan
lan's. A bucket of water put out all the
fire that was in Massei's room.
According to Miss Scanlan's estimate of
her loss, it will reach 5000 and may ex-
coed that sum, as everything she possessed
was burned up. She did not carry any in
surance. A fine organ, valued at SIS,
handsome furniture, rugs and dresses, her
sewing machine, a $500 stock Of dress
goods and several hundred dollars worth
of dresses already made up and belonging
to Omaha women, were included in the
list of property that was burned.
The building is owned by Sir Horace
Plunkett, for whom Conrad Young is agent
The latter says that $500 or $500 will cover
the damage to the building, which is fully
insured.
