COnvictS Burn
Prison, but Fire
Cuts Off Escape
Thirty-Six Negro Inmates Of Alabama
Stockade Lose Lives in Frantic
Dash for Freedom.

sENTERVILI.E Ala, May I5.-Thirty-
six negro convicts lost their lives early to-
day when the stockade of the Red Feather
Coal company at Lucille was destroyed by
fire, set by one Of the prisoners in an
effort to gain his freedom. Thirty-five
convicts were burned to death and another
was fatally shot by guards while trying to
escape. Among the former is the negro
who started the blaze.
1t was with much difficulty that the re-
naming convicts in the stockade were pre-
vented from eluding the guards. The
financial loss will reach several thousand
dollars.
The fire had gained such Roadway as to
be beyond control when the guards and
other men on the outside of the stockade
discovered it. At the risk of their own lives
they rushed into the burning building free
ing many of the convlcts from their cells
The division of the convicts which was
necessary to guard the prisoners who were
hurried outside, greatly hampered the res
cue work.
The wood Of which the stockade was
built, burned like finder and in an hour
after the flames were discovered the spot
was marked only by glowing embers and
the huddled bodies OF the dead convicts.

Ogalalla After New
Passenger Depot
Citizens File Complaint with Railway
Commission Urging Union
Pacific to Build.
(From a staff Correspondent

Nf rom a SJaIE correspondent
LINCOLN, May 17.-(speciaL) Citizens of
Ogalalla want new passenger depot and
a new freight depot and to that end they
have filed complaint with the State Rail
way commission to issue an order on the
Union Pacific to build them. The petition.
filed with /. o. Holloway and eighteen
others, tells the story of a long suffering
community more forcible than any ever
told in any other petition now on file
along similar lines. With the petition are
a number of photographs to substantiate
the charges made. @~
1t is alleged that the present depot was
erected in 1884 and it is 24.5x706 feet in di-
mensions.' The waiting room is 15x25 feet
and has a seating capacity of seventy-five.
The office is 12x23 feet, divided into two
rooms. Freight is unloaded from the cars,
the petition says, and stacked along the
right-of-way, where it remains days and
sometimes weeks while waiting to be
called for, and yet storage charges are col
lected always. The photographs show
freight and express piled up in profusion
some at least 400 fees from the depot. In
fact. so bad are the conditions that seven.
ty-five different employees have been on the
payroll and quit during the year, three
persons being employed regularly.
The petition sets out that the income OF
the station is not less than 5000 to $1,000
month and that the payroll amounts tc
only about $275 month.
Attorney General Thompson has con.
cluded twelve volumes of briefs printed

SMITH DEFENDS REGULARS
Iowa Congressman Opens Campaign
with Criticism of Insurgents.
SEES MUCH GOOD FROM CONGRESS
Says Present session VIII he Most
Prolific of value of Any I'm
Iears-Hopes for Postal
Savings.

VILLISCA. Ia. May 17.-Congressman
Walter l. Smith opened his campaign for
denomination here tonight with vigorous
defense Of the regulars in congress and
criticism of insurgency
Judge Smith indicated that he will largely
confne himself in his campaing to an ex-
position of the work of congress and to
a defense of his course in the vital issues
He regards the present session Of congress
promising to be the most prolific Of
good of any in years. In the course of
his talk tonight he said he felt that he
would be able to convince the voters that
they should support the administration of
President Taft and not contribute to the
further delay of great reform measures
by weakening the strength of the regulars
in congress.
Between So and 80 per cent OF the re-
publicans in both houses of congress-" he
said, are Loyalty supporting the admins
tration and that certainly ought to be
some presumption In a republican form of
government that 80 per cent is more apt
to be right than 10 per cent"
Better Tariff Law.
The speaker dwelt at length upon the
tariff. He said, among other things:
Every man who voted on the present
tariff law was voting not for the new law
so much as on the question whether the
new law was better than the old one.
Every man who voted against the present
law voted to perpetuate the Dingley law,
every man who voted against the new law
voted for high duties on everything pro-
duced by the Standard Oil company and
every such vote against the maximum and
minimum tariff by which, for the first
time, we are getting fair trade relations
with foreign countries, every vote against
the present law was against the tax on
corporations, which now brings a revenue
of about $25 0OO,0 900 a year"
Power of Commission.
Regarding the tariff commission he said
that he and Representative Tawney of
Minnesota had prepared provision now in
the sundry civil bill, widening and ex-
tending the powers of the commission. Re
garding the work of congress Judge Smith
said:
THE railroad bill has passed the house
in fairly good condition, and before con-
gress adiourns l think a postal savings
bank bill will be passed and at least one
great conservation measure"
Judge Smith made bitter attack on Sen
| ator La Toilette, whom he charged with
being the master muckraker." He added
| that the real charge of Cannon and Aldrich
adherents against himself had been that
| he would not be swerved by others than
| the 200 900 masters he acknowledged in his
district He said that Roosevelts big stick
