fire at Malcolm & Dyer's hardware
store. The teams made a remarkably
quick hitch. Hose No. l and No We're
in front of the store before the whistle
had finished sounding, while only a
Ladder truck.
The fire originated in 4 working coat
belonging to one OF the clerks, which
was hanging on the wall, and the blaze
was seen from the door by officer Cor
bett, who promptly effected an en-
trance and threw the blazing coat up
on the sidewalk, eXtinguishinS the fire
charred the woodwork and before the
arrival of the department.
The damage will not be over S25 and
most of that is included in the cost OF
replacing the plate glass in The door.
A still alarm was sent in To the
Cushnoc engine house, just as the de-
partment was returning. for the tene-
ment, 40 State street, occupied by VIII

exploded lamp, and that also was TAX

ECONOMY
EFFECTED
By Democrats OF
Fourth Of House
Expense

Washington. April "a brilliant
beginning Of the preliminary work q
re sixty-second congress was made
In the house democratic Caucus Sat
urcay when the members Of the new
ma lority IN sessions, notable for har.
mony and earnestness, started in 10
redeem their pledges to the country
by Topping AZ one fell swoop a quarter
of the toal annual fixed charges Of
rOEning the house by abolishing many
useless offices and six useless commit
tecs. The total annual saving by
these reductions III the house pay
roll win Be sis2.5S9. tho pay roll un-
der the late republican regime having
been pushed up to the formidable az
gregate OF s744,000. Were it possible
under the coming democratic regime
70 effect approximately as great saw
'ings throughout al branches Of the
governmental service, the tax bur
dens Of the people would be materially
reduced and a substantial reduction
of the tariff schedules could be made
without danger of incurring a deficit
Ia the revenues.
The course Of the new democratic
majority in the house IN reducing the
patronage Of that body by approxi-
mately Is per cent is without prece-
dent in recent history and is offered
as the best possible guarantee that the
members Of the party in congress are
determined to fulfill all the other
pledges made to the voters in last
falPs campaign. A part Of the work
OF the caucus that is receiving com
mendation Is the resolution to put an
en6 in the future fe the custom, fol-
lowed for 50 many years, Of giving the
wellpaid employees of the house an
extra months salary at the end OF
each session. This is an essential
part Of the economy plan adopted by
tho caucus. The plan Of economy was
worked out by Representative A. Nit
chell Palmer Of Pennsylvania on be-
half Of the ways and means commit
tee and II was embodied in a succinct
report presented to the caucus and
adopted by IL after discussion Of
considerable length. Another notable
feature Of the work Is that all the re-
drctions in the pay roll will come
from patronage belonging to the ma
jority, while there viii be no reduc-
tons at all in the patronage which
the majority in accordance with Gus
tom. allows to the minority. The an
nual amount Of the latter is under
$4,000 a year
The looping off Of useless places

posal of each member Of the demo
cratic majority Of approximately $2.-
