ELIMINATION OF
 CANNON DELAYED

Washington, March 2S.-The insurgents who have been considering the proposition of eliminating the speaker in his appoint ment of committees and vesting the fune- ton in the House itself have decided to defer any action along that line until the House has had an opportunity to act upon the legislative programme of Pres dent Taft.
 Representative Haugrn of Iowa, an in- surgent republican, and Representative Sims, a democras of Tennessee, have, il is said, proposed resolutions to reform the committee situation along the lines an- nounced. MT. Sims sought indorsement of his bill before the last democratic eau GUS but the caucus was not prepared to act at that time. MT. Sims has been cir culating call for another caucus to consider his proposition.
 MT. Haugen said today he was disposed to wait for 8 month or so pending con sideration of the administration pro- gramme before pressing his resolution, but added that he believed in a commit tee on committees proposition. He said he thought the proposition acted upon should emanate from the republican side. He favors naming the committee on com mttees outright.

OVER THREE HUNDRED PEOPLE
 LOSE LIVES IN TERRIBLE FIRE

spread with astonishing rapidity. A dreadful panic ensued, the revelers los- ing their heads completely. Many of them with flames shooting out from their garments rushed toward the barred exit where 0 surging' mass was damned together.
 Women and men fell and were tram pied under foot. Those in front vainly endeaVored to tear open the door, but were crushed helplessly by the pressure of the crowd behind. The roaring and cracking of the flames mingled with the cespairing shrieks of the doomed throng.
 Soon the roof crashed in, the blazing wreokagc falling upon the helpless vic trus, and many of those who hitherto had escaped the flames were struck down by Leans or buried under the debris. The scene was horrifying.
 When the door finally was broken open sc,ne few persons escaped, but most of these collapsed before they went far. h. side the building were heaps of charred corpses, and heartrending screams and groaps still were audible from the smok- ing piles.
 A detachment of troops was imme- 6iately ordered to the scene to clear the wrectage and help bury the dead.
 The official estimate, as given tonight states that 200 persons perished, but 1t is believed that the total death roll will prove much larger than this, as many persons have not been accounted for.

Broad Investigation Is
 Begun By Grand Jury Tn
 Pittsbur9 Graft Gases

ing Mans National Savings and Trust company there appeared the cashier James Anderson.
 The German National bank of Ale gheny, the German National bank of Pittsburg and the Columbia National bank. which have lso been named as involved in the scandal were not rep resented today. The appearance of their directors was given on the ground that they had not been served with proper legal notice that their presence was required.
 Subpoenas are to be served on the men tomorrow.
 Although Judge Robert s. Frazer was ready today to hear the pleas of those indicted, councilmen who wanted an immunity bath, could give further con- fessions The judge will resume ths sessions tomorrow and hear more ol the bankers.
 The nature of their testimony today was not disclosed.
 At the request of the district attorney today Judge Frazer appointed Detec- tive Robert Wilson of Scranton to spe- cial duty for the next four years in Investigating the scandals and rami- tications which have already led into exposure of graft in the red light dis tricl and alleged jury fixing.
 The retention of Detective Wilson is believed to indicate a determination to go to the very bottom of all grating. It was he who by fake bribery in connection with a wood scheme dis covered several councilmen who were themselves, or had votes, for sale.

Pittsburg, March 2S.-The grand sury's programme which calls for the examination of nearly hundred di- rectors and officials of six Pittsburg banks in connection with the alleged bribery of councilmen to secure Rgis- 1ation which made these banks official begun today.
 When the jurors came out of the star oh amber proceedings this afternoon their only report had to do with the formal indictment of S4 present and former councilmen against whom lp- dictments had been previously ordered in the grand jurys presentment of Friday last. The counts charge Hugh Ferguson, W. Brand and Charles W. Stewart with conspiracy and bribery in connection with the acceptance and dis tribution of $102,500 as bribes to other councilmen.
 The other 31 indicted are charged with acceptance of the bribes. During the day the grand jury had before it several officers of the Second National bank.

TWO JAPANESE
 AT CORREGIDOR

Manila, March 29.-Two Japanese en- gagged in an effort to secure plans Of the fortifications at Corregidor, Cavite, have been arrested by the military authorities and are being held subject to instruc- tions from Secretary of War J. M. Dick inson. The men approached soioier or the engineering corps and the latter was caught taking photographs. He revealed the plan of the Japanese and agreed to assist in their capture. He said that the Japanese had informed him he would received a large sum of money for forti- fication plans. trap was arranged for Sunday night, which had been appointed for the final delivery of the photographs and plans, and the payment of the bribe by the Japanese. The men came at the appointed hour and spent considerable time examining the plans and discussing other matters with the soldier.
 The officers who were on watch then entered the trap and arrested the men, but the bribe money wae not found. The Japanese consul here has taken no action in the matter, but the Japanese resi- dents insist that their countrymen were serving some unknown power. No federal ar local statute covers the offense and 1t ,s probable that the Japanese will be re,ea ased and ordered to leave the coun- try.
 yrent and 1t is said to be the intention to transfer him to the United States.

DENIES CHARGES
 OF SUGAR TRUST CONNECTION

Washington. March 2S-The charge pre- ferred on the floor of the House last Friday by Representative Martin, demo- crat of Colorado, that 'the former attor- ney of the sugar trust is now at the head of the department of justice of the present administration" brought forth a letter of denial from Attorney General Wickersham addressed to Representative Bennett of New York, and read into the record today.
 "In order that such statement may not gain any currency" says MT. Wicker sham in his letter, '.I should like to state through you I was never the attorney for the sugar trust-by which I understand Is meant the American Sugar Refining company and it's allied or subsidiary cor porations-nor had any professional or business relations to 1t.
 'The only possible foundation for such a statement lies in the fact that one or my partners some three years ago was retained as one of counsel for the Amer ican Sugar Refining company in single lawsuit brought against 1t and pursuant to such retainer he assisted in the de- fense of the company in that action and an appeal taken from a Judgment in it's favor, but in that lawsuit I was neither consulted nor did render any service.

ROOSEVELT CAUSES
 BIG SENSATION

Cairo, Egypt, March B.-Former Presi- dent Roosevelts outspoken warning to the nationalists in his speech today before the Egyptian university has created a great sensation. It is reported that de- termined efforts were made to dissuade him from referring to the assassination of Premier Boutros Pacha Ghal, and the political situation, but Colonel Roosevelt delivered a scathing denunciation of the assassin and as strongly condemned those who would condone such an act.
 Some apprehension is felt at the pos sible attitude of the resentful nationalist party, and the authorities are exercising extraordinary vigilance and are prepared to take extreme masures if any mani festation occurs against Colonel Roose- welt.

MT. Martin announced that he intend ed to carry his charges against the de- partment of justice to a definite conclu- sion. He now has a resolution pending for an investigation of the acquisition of friar lands in the Philippines by the Havermeyer interests. MT. Martin said in an interview:
 "The attorney general, you will ob- serve, has avoided making any denial of the principal feature of my charges, to- wit that his decision gave the sugar trust 55,00O acres of friar lands for price less than the government paid for it, and that there was no warrant of law for such decision.
 MT. Wckersham says that his part ner, whom I understand was Henry w Taft, brother of the President, and not he, was the attorney for the sugar trust This form of disavowal will not carry much weight.
 q shall continue to show by my eff forts what I believe is but the begin hing of a gigantic grab of the friar lands of the Philippines by the sugar trust, all made possible by an unwarranted de- cision of the attorney general. l shall decide upon further course within day or two"
 lands in the Philippines acquired by the government at cost of T,20O,O0O, which is SIS per acre. The sugar trust ac- ouired this 55,OOO acres for $6 an acre, 1t was stated
