While Streams Of Water
Were Played Upon
Them

NEW HAVEN, Conn, April ia
Trapped by metal doors and barred
windows, six firemen were burned to
death during the partial destruction
of the New Haven county Jail. Three

efforts of comrades The bodies of
the six men were found after the de-
bris cooled Many other firemen
were fearfully burned, but remained
at work. The dead include Capt. G,
L. Chapman and Lieut.. William j.
Doherty.
Six men were fighting their way
through the cell room of the jail into
the workshop, where an explosion OF
a gasoline tank caused back draft
and slammed behind them the iron
doors separating the two buildings.
Three of the men were hemmed In
in corner and burned to death, while
the other three made their way to a
barred window, to which they cluns
with streams of water playing on
them from the outside. Soon after
they reached the window the roof
fell in and ladders were put up from
the outside and down the inside and
the men taken out.
The other dead firemen were caught
by the same back draft as they were
working at the other end of the
building and were carried down BY
the roof when it fell in.

Did Not Like to be Routed
up at Such Early
Hour.

VENICE April 14-COl. Roosevelt

who are with him call for help today.
The Colonel and Kermit, Lawrence
Abbott, the correspondents and sever
al picked up friends at Milan. arrived
at Venice at 800 o'clock this morning
and made almost bee line for Hotel
Britannia. There was a hard twelve
hour ride from Porto Mauritizo and 1t
was thought that everyone would be
desirous of good long sleep.
But the correspondents had not
reckoned as they should on a certain
man in a slouch hat. At 600 o'clock
the colonel appeared in the lobby Of
the hotel looking as fresh as the pro-
verbal daisy. A few minutes later
group o. drowsy correspondents ap-
peared, muttering their disapproval OF
the early bird policy. AS the colonel
had but twelve hours to give to Venice
he lost no time in beginning his sight
seeing.
Accompanied by U. S. Consul Long
and number of friends, he visited
the museum and Derrottio's famous

interest. At noon there was a lunch
con in his honor and at 200 O'Clock,

GARsT QUARTERS
ARE OPENED
Iowa Insurgents Gather at Des Moines
and Plan Their Campaign
Against. Governor
Carroll
BRoOKHART is WORRIED
Appointment of Copeland as Post
master at Burlington is Causing
the Colonel to Feel
Irritated.

DES MONIES, April 14.-Four politi-
cal conferences held in Des Moines in
rapid succession, beginning Wednes-
day afternoon and lasting through un-
til last night, have served to stir the
political situation considerably and
give the impression that the campaign
Is really opening. Among the import
ant conferences was one composed OF
the friends and supporters of Cover
nor Garst, who met here to outline a
plan of campaign. Fritz Norris OF
MarshalItown, Col. S. w. Brookhart Of
Washington and Dan Turner of the
Eighth district were among the first
of the insurgent leaders to reach the
city and get ready for the big confab.
There was considerable enthusiasm,
and the fact was made clear that a
great campaign against Governor Car
roll had been arranger for. Reports
from all over the state were received,
and instructions formulated to lieuten.
ants to organize and carry on the cam
paign for Garst.
| Colonel Brookhart, 1t is said, is very
much disconnected over the appoint
ment of W. w. Copeland as postmast
er at Burlington. He was recommend
Gu by Congressman Kennedy, whom
Brookhart is opposing for the republi
can nomination. Mr.. Copeland has
/ always been in the insurgent camp
and his appointment by President Taf'
is taken by Colonel Brookhart tc
mean the loss to him of good sup
porter.
The Garst headquarters, in the of
fees used by Senator Cummins, will
be formally opened today. While Rob
err Fleming is the titular head of the
! insurgent organization, B. w Garrett
former secretary to the state board o.
control, will be actively in charge O
the headquarters.

Prof. Eli S. Haynes, director of the
Laws observatory at the University of
Missouri. In order that every one in
the state may cooperate in keeping
tab on Halley's comet, Mr.. Reeder has
issued catalogue of the possible phe-
nomena, which will serve as sort of
comet prospectus for the lay observ-
er Among the sights listed are auro-
raj displays, meteoric trails, color of
sun and sky, twilight colors, luminous
clouds. zodiacal light, gegenschein. or
counter glow, and other miscellaneous
phenomena.
Here is the official program for the

Auroral Displays-Auroras indicate
the electric state of the outer atmos-
phere, and, as this state may possibly
! be affected by the tail of the comet

should be watched for, and their loca
ton, color, shape extent, times OF ap-
pearance, changes, disappearance and
other phenomena carefully observed
and noted.
4 Meteoric Trails-The number, time
of, appearance, lengths of duration, di-
rection and lengths of visible paths OF
meteors should be noted on all three
nights, but especially on the night OF
May 18.

called dust halo. WINCH was seen

of both Krakatoa and Mount Pelee, and
might possibly follow the passage OF
/ the earth through Halley's comets
4 tail.
4 Color of Sun and Sky-The general
color OF both the sun and sky depend
ON the dust and other contents of the
4 atmosphere at that time, and should
be carefully noted on the given dates
