other tariff bills.

1t is believed that the present fire was

broke out simultaneously at several points
in Stambul the ancient city, while the
people were celebrating the anniversary
of the new constitution.
Near War Ministry.
The most formidable blaze fiared up
near the ministry of war and was borne
by strong north wind through the
residential section to the southern coast
From the square in front of the war
ministry east Of the center of Stambul
to the Sea Of Marmora on the south prac-
tically nothing was left standing.
Two square miles of the city were
devastated. 1t is roughly estimated that
over 5000 houses were destroyed. The
greater number Of these were wooden
buildings, but several important stone
structures were ruined.
Europeans in No Peril.
The European quarter, across the Gold
en- Horn to the north and east was at
no time in danger, owing to the contrary
direction of the wind.
Stalnbul having the Sea of Marmora
on the south and the Bosphorus on the
east with the Golden Horn, an inlet o1
the Bosphorus, on the ncrtn, has a sea
front of eight miles. On the west it is
walled. This district contains the Sc

MOSQUES, the mausoleums, the public Of

remains of ancient Constantinople. Here
chiefly reside the Turks, Jews, Armenians
and Greeks.

ties?
''No, what good would 1t do? I was not
SO much impressed with it until about
week later. when A. r. Van Orman came
to my Office and asked for all the copies
Of the agreement. I never knew that
even one was saved until a long time
afterward when my brother said he mao
saved one''
What did Van Orman say?''
HE said that an official Of the Illinois
Steel Company had told him that the laws
OF Illinois were such that il the agree
ment got out he would be sent to Jail.
Pool Members Indicted:
R. G. Richmond, manager of the Water
bury Wire Company Of New York, which
belonged to the Wire Rope Association in
1905, named several companies in that
pool. including the American Steel and
Wire Company.
''All the members of that pool were in

the chairman knows that the American
Steel and Wire Company was not party
to that agreement"

This was a list made up when the Wire

Counsel Lindabury, for the steel cor

pools existed until 1905 and that his cor
poration had nothing to do with them.
He promised to furnish copies of agree

the main offices, 923 II street northwest.
was distributing the boxes and literature
to young aspirants for swatting glory
this morning between 10 and IL o'clock.
What do you do with them?" was the
next query. when Miss Belle denied that
the corpses of the victims of the crusade
were to be preserved in alcohol or as
sembled and cemented into a shaft like
the washington Monument to be me-
mortal of the great children's war on the
insect pest.
The disposition to be made Of dead flies
was general speculation among the
Young f1y-killers. They wanted to know.
