Albert Algiers. one of the three own CTS of the famous "GlOry Hole mine, is in the city seeking the shady side of the street for a few days.

TRAIN SERVICE ON
 PHOENIX & BUCKEYE
IT WILL BEGIN JULY 25, ACCMO- DATING FREIGHT AND
 PASSENGERS.
Stoekyards and Stations Houses to Be
 Built as Soon as Possible.

Train service will be established on the Phoenix X Buckeye railroad July 25. That announcement was made yesterday by Superintendent C. NJ. Scott of the local Arizona Eastern lines, under whose direction the road will be operated. At the beginning only a mixed train will be run each way daily. leaving Phoenix about s o'clock in the morning and returning about o'clock in the afternoon. There will still be construction trains at work and constructions going on in the way of station buildings, sidings, etc, so that first class train service cannot be established at once, but the mixed train will answer all practical purposes. Though not definitely an nounced there will probably be no Sun day train for a while.
 There are nO' depots built along the line yet and in the beginning d box car will probably be side tracked at Buck eye to do service as a station house until a depot can be built Neither are there any stockyards built yet, so for the present live stock cannot be shipped, but the needs of ordinary freight and passenger service will be looked after.
 Another announcement made yester- day was the resignation of T. J. Marks, train dispatcher and assistant superin- tendent, to take employment on anoth- CT line. MT Marks will be succeeded in few days by J. G. Lindsay, who is now in the employ of the Randolph lines at Guaymas, Mexico.

VAN BUREN HOTEL 4
 SPECTACULAR BLAZE NO LIVES LOST AS FAR AS
 KNOWN. Only Charred Walls of the Old Land Mark Remain Today.

The Belmont lodging house, known also as the Van Buren hotel, at the corner of First avenue and Van Buren street. was destroyed by fire immedi- ately after midnight this morning. It was impossible at the time of writing to learn whether any lives were lost but the general supposition is that all of the lodgers made their way in some manner to safety.
 The hotel was peopled to great ex- tent with invalids, but few of these were rooming on the second floor where the fire started. Those on the first floor could have had little diff ficulty in saving themselves.
 Owing to the character of the build ing, the fire burned with wonderful rapidly. When the alarm, "23" agair, was sounded at the. drop of midnight, the room was a mass of flames. The wind was blowing gale and the air was filled with sand and dust, while lightning streaked across the sky. It was a most spectacular fire, half the sky radiating a lurid glare. The wind was from the southeast and showers of sparks, burning shingles and boards were carried to the northwest, starting lesser fires in several places The houses immediately across the road were protected to some extent by green trees, and the efforts of the fire men and the owners prevented their burning a
 The building was generally con- sidered one of the worst fire traps in the city. It was built sixteen years ago and was of wood throughout It was two stories high. The recent dry season made it particularly inflamable The property is owned by City Attor- ney Tom Prescott and was leased to Robert M. Catterson, who conducted it as a resort for those afflicted with tu- berculosis.
 Those who arrived at the scene first rushed through the rooms and beat on every door. There was but little time for any rescue work after the general alarm sounded, for the second floor and the roof were in flames and the heat was so intense that it was almost impossible to penetrate up the narrow wooden stairs. The firemen quickly laid hose to a hydrant across the street on First avenue and to another a block below on the Central school corner. They worked valiantly and prevented the fire spreading to other buildings, and then succeeded in extinguishing it. Little remains of the building but some wooden walls. The whole interior is burned out.
 How the fire caught is a mystery at present. An open hallway between two wings of the building seemed to be the nucleus of it. A large crowd was at tracted to the spot by the glare, the light seeming more brilliant on ac- count of the dust storm which reflect ed it. But little of the contents were saved. Here and there, in the yard off the Central school or on someone's

vars, the mortgages do not move, sharing the difficulty of setting se- curities everywhere.
 Later Mir. Reynolds predicts the usual eastward flow of currency be- fore in August and September the westward tide comes. The money sent to buy Canadian lands, Mir Reynolds points out, will not return. The quotation for wheat drops and with it future profits on these land purchases, carried by the Western country banks '"The people of the west" says Mir. Reynolds in clos ing. 'are well aware that condi- tions are not normal and they are trying to pursue a very safe and con- servative course"
 Banking resources in the West are far greater than in the past, but it is also clear that MT Reynolds out line suggests caution East as well as West.

lawn were stray pieces of furniture or a pile of clothes; but it burned too rapidly for any elaborate attempt at getting out the furniture. The build ing probably cost originally about $10, 900. but its value was much less than that at present. There is said to have been some insurance. MT Prescott has long contemplated putting up a new building on the site.
 Mir. CattersOn, the proprietor. said: This is the third time the building has caught fire in the past few years. 1 sometimes think the lodgers are a bit careless with their cigarettes. How it caught this time. I do not know. The fire originated on the second floor and the firemen were here almost as soon as I was aware there was d fire. There were forty-tWo rooms in the house. and of these perhaps only about half were rented, on account of the season. Most all of these were on the first floor. I do not think any one was hurt. We even saved some of our furniture"
 Sparks from the fire were carried for blocks. The carpenter shop belonging to Tom L. Elens on Second avenue caught fire and grass in Dr. NortOH's yard block and half from the fire, burst into flame. The corral on See ond avenue and Van Buren was in i'm minent danger on account of the hay stored there, and men were kept busy stamping out the sparks as they dropped. It is beginning to be recog- nized, from the fires of the past two

WESTERN BANK LOANS.

Beyond question the most interest ing factor in the current financial sit uation is the large expansion of bank loans in the west, through 1909 and the past six months, says the Phila- delhia Press. These loans have left the western banks with little currency to send East and kept low the re- serves of the reserve cities, New York, Philadelphia and Chicago. Not even the drain of $50. O0O,OOO of gold abroad in May altered this.
 George M. Reynolds of the Chi cagO Continental national bank, who at 45 becomes the president of the Commercial, consolidated with the Continental. lays these expanded loans in an article in the Daily Banker to the land purchases of farmers. Crops have been high for three years. Farms have made large pro 5sts. Farmers in the central Missipi valley states have been liberal purchasers of lands in the newer and remote sections of the country, with view of acquiring land suffi- cient to provide their children with farms" Joined to speculative realty sales this has created an expan- sion of the bank loans in the interior, which reaches s5OO,OO0,OO0, if not more.
 The average country banker has been taken by surprise" He did not realize that the loans he was making would be used to pay dis tant purchases. His reserves have been pulled down. He has had to draw on his Eastern reserves. or dinarily around March 1 the average country banker says Mir Reynolds. 'is obliged to make many loans in these mortgages have been turned into money very readily after March l." This year, though offered at per cent, as against in previous

 Parade Arouses Sympathy.

Chicago, Dec 9-Settlement work CTS who are in close touch with the striking garment workers declared that 10000 persons are on the verge of starvation as a result of the strike and the cold weather, and declared they feared that bread riots would re- suit unless the trouble was settled soon.
 Thousands of the strikers are facing eviction for not paying rent, and in many houses the gas has been shut off, leaving them without light or fuel
 Upon this announcement is made from the union that the new vote on the settlement question likely will not be taken for several days. In that event, it would be nearly Christmas before the strikers returned to work.
 The garment manufacturers have declined further arbitration, declaring they see nothing left to arbitrate.
 Sympathy has been created for the strikers by the parade in which 25,00O persons, thinly clad and hungry, pa raded through the down town streets.
 The parade was followed by appeals for medical treatment, as many of the strikers caught heavy colds in the cold march.

STREET RAILWAY AT TORONTO SUFFERS DAMAGE AT HANDS
 OF MOB.
MANY ARE HURT IN RIOT
Failure of Protests to Avail Aualnst an innovation of Company Brings Out Surprising
 Feeling.

Toronto, Ont, Dec. 9.-A riot re- markable for it's spontaneity and for its fierceness, resulted in the injury of IS men, the complete wrecking of II street cars and the shatterinS of the windows of 100 more. The dis turbance was protest against the in- roduction of the pay-as-you-enter cars in Toronto
 The mob of several thousand per sons surged back and forth on the principal business thoroughfares. de- molishing every street car that came within reach and completely tyins up traffic.
 Citizens Hold Mass Meeting.
 The disorderly scenes followed a mass meeting at Massey hall. Two weeks ago the Toronto street railway installed pay-as-y you-enter cars on the principal lines. Much dissatisfaction developed over the innovation. It was claimed that the cars were not adapt ed to that kind of service.
 Protests in writing and by personal appeal became so nun erous that May or Geary and the board of control de- cided to hold a public mass meeting at which the matter cold be dis GA ssed
 Representatives of the street rail way also were invited to attend. The meeting resolved itself into 8 series of fiery denunciations of the street car company, and, shortly before Il o'clock, broke up in disorder. The au- dience became a mob. The first street car that hove in sight was stopped and reduced to a scrap heap.
 City Officially Protests Unheeded.
 Car after car was attacked by the mob, which grew in numbers every moment. Protests by Mayor Gesry and other officials passed unheeded
 Police reserves were summoned, but they were outnumbered 50 to 1 and were utterly powerless. For more than an hour the carnival of destruc- ton continued unchecked.
 Traffic of all kinds on King and Yonge streets was tied up The mob showed consideration for the passen- gers. allowing them, in almost every instance, to leave the car before at lacking it.
 An order finally was issued to stop running cars into the downtown dis trict, and not until it was carried out were there signs of restoration of order.
