FIRE DESTROYS
FLORIDA HOTEL
Sleeping Guests Escape Without Mis-
hap-WOman in Frenzy of
Fear Bites Clerk.

Daytona, Fla, Feb. 15.-The Hotel
Clarendon at Sea Breeze, one of the
largest resort hotels on the east
coast, together with ten cottages ad-
joining the house, was totally de-
stroyed by fire. The 215 guests, who
were asleep at the time, were saved
without injury, and many were able
to gather up most of their belongings.
When the blaze was first discov-
cred the night clerk rushed the help
to each room notifying guests, who
made their way hurriedly to the
streets. At one time the blaze ap-
peared to be under control, but the
wind shifted and it broke out anew,
and in less than three-quarters of an
hour the entire building was burned.
The ten cottages, owned by H. R.
Kochersperger, caught from sparks,
and all were burning at the same
time.
The hotel help was panic-stricken
and the clerks could do nothing with
them, one woman biting the clerk
badly on the hand. The hotel was
wooden structure, valued at 100000,
and was insured for about 40 per
cent. The streets about the hotel are
stacked with trunks, suit cases, bed
ding and furniture.

Cleveland, o.. Feb. 15.-One Of the
most severe sleet storms experienced
in several years paralyzed the tele-
graph, telephone and trolley wires
and seriously interfered with railway
traffic throughout northern Ohio.
Trees were loaded down with ice and
hundreds of telegraph and telephone
poles are down. Communication by
wire with many towns in the north
western part of the state is complete
ly shut off. At Sandusky the trolley
wires were down and the city was
without street and hterurban car
service. The steam lines were ham
pered by the dispatchers being un-
able to communicate with train
crews.
The damage to wire equipment has
been large and it will require many
days to restore the normal condition.
Many villages are in darkness as a
result Of the damage to the illuminat-

Niagara Falls, Feb. 15.-Only q tiny

LANGLEY SAYS
INJUSTICE DONE
Descendants of Indians in Admins
trati0n of Their Landed
Estates.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-During
the discussion of the Indian appro-
priation bill in the House Saturday,
Representative Langley of Kentucky,
made a speech on the subject Of the
administration of the estate of the
five civilized tribes, He referred
more. particularly to the eases Of the
descendants of the Choctaws, Chick
asaws and Cherokees, many of whom
live in his congressional district. He
reviewed briefly the legislation on the
subject, and contended that injustice
had been done the descendants of
these tribes, not only by acts of Con-
gress, but by the action of the exec
utive officers of the Government in
excluding from consideration in max
ing the final enrollemnt. number of
rolls upon which he said appeared
the names of the ancestors of his
constituents.
Mr.. Langley called attention to the
bill which he introduced recently pro-
viding that these claimants should
be given the privilege of establishing
their rights in the courts Of the
United States. and insisted that some
such legislation as this ought to be
promptly enacted, in order that the
whole controversy, which he termed
"discreditable to the Government"
might be settled once and for all.
Sherman Takes Issue.
Upon the conclusion of Mr.. Lang
I ley's address, Vice President-elect
Sherman, who is chairman of the
House Committee, on Indian Affairs,
and who has charge of the Indian
appropriation bill in the House, took
the floor and proceeded to take issue
with Mr.. Langley on some of his
statements. A rather sharp and in
teresting colloquy ensued between
them. Mr.. Sherman contending that
Mr.. Langley had criticized unduly the
Administration and the Committee on
Indian Affairs. Mr.. Langley insisted
that his remarks had been misunder-
stood by Mr.. Sherman, so far as the
application of his criticisms to his
(Mr. Sherman's) committee was con-
cerned, but at the same time he re-
iterated his assertion that the rec
ords show that injustice had been
done to many claimants. Mr.. Sher-
man conceded that some injustice
had been done, but argued that it was
not of sufficient gravity to justify
re-opening the whole subject of the
enrolment of these Indians.
The colloquy was of interest in
that it indicated that the question of
the distribution of the estate of the
five civilized Indian tribes is to be the
subject of further consideration in
Congress. Mr.. Langley comedies
that no legislation on the subject can
be secured at this session, but he
says that he expects to continue the
fight in the next Congress.
Representative Stephens, of Texas,
who is also one of thee champions
of the Indians in Congress, will ad-
dress the House on Monday, and it is
understood that he will combat some
of the statements made by Mr.. Sher-
man today.
