Shanghai, November 12.-Reports from Ranking say that city is now or derly and that all foreigners are safe. Chin Kiang, a short distance from Nan king, is awaiting th> results at the latter place, but the rebel flag still flies on the forts. The revolutionaries have taken Gnu Chow Jn the Pu Row railroad, 30 miles north of Pu Row.
 The consuls al Shanghai have re- ceived instructions to consult and deal with the defacto government without. however, official recognition. The American marines wffo have been guarding the cable huts at Who Sung have been withdrawn and the revolu- tionaries have taken charge.
 It is understood that Wu Ting Fang, the minister of foreign affairs has tel egraphed the diplomats at Peking pro- testing against the Na.King massacre, pointing out that the reformers are or ganized and are maintaining order elsewhere in the province.
 Reports from l Chang say that the revolution is spreading through Sze- chuen province and that conditions are very serious. Some of the mission aries have been robbed.
 Hankow, November 10.--(Delayed in Transmission. )-The imperialists have bombarded Wu Chang without notice- able effect. They have practically aban- doned Ten Kilometer station about the effective shooting of the revolutionists. Otherwise conditions are pacific here.
 Yuan Shi Kai, in writing to General u Yuen Heng, the f-oel leader, set ting forth terms for a settlement, has expressed dissatisfaction with linn ited monarchy and asked that the Elm peror be given an oppv.tunity to prove his sincerity of his promises for re- form.

AVIATOR RODGERS INJURED BY FALL When Almost in Sight of Goal King of Aviators
 Has Accident

Los Angeles, November 12.--In an at tempted flight today from Pasadena to Long Beach officially to end his At lantic to Pacific oceans journey, Aviator c. P. Rogers met with the worst mis- hap of his career, falling with his ma chine into plowed field half way be- tween the two cities and within sight of his destination Although no bones were broken Rodgers was insensible. He was badly shaken up. his face was scratched and torn. and his hands were burned by his motor and he complains of severe pains in his side. His ma chine was completely wrecked.
 Rodgers left Tournament park at Pasadena at 3:34 o'clock, expecting to fly the 23 miles to the beach in as many minutes He became confused after taking the air and after circlins aimlessly around for half an hour came down at Covina Juntion, q mile fur ther from Long Beach than the point from which he started He took the air again, however. regetting his hear ings and wss following the tracks of the Pacific Electric Traction company when the accident occurred.
 This was in an isolated district and the first learned of the accident by those interested was when an automo- hilist who had seen Rodgers fall and naQ QragReu nlHt out .lIoiu uIucT tHe wings of his biplane carried him into sthe office of physician at Compton, two miles distant
 Rodgers was still unconscious when Mrs Rodgers and her mother, Mrs. Ii. & Sweitzer. who had been awaiting his arrival at Long Beach, reached Comp ton. Later the aviator partly regained his senses but was still too dazed tu talk of the accident He was put aboard q special train which his wife and mother had chartered for the run up from Long Beach and taken to his hotel at Pasadena. After an eXamina - ton tonight his physicians announced that he would suffer nc permanent ;n- jury
 While the cause of the accident will not be known until Rodgers explains it, it is believed that control wire snapped inverting the rudder from his machine and heading it's nose down ward at an angle of more than 45 de- grees.
 Rodgers complained of engine trou- ble when he alighted at Covina Juno tion, but according to the automobilists who saw him fall was flying smoothly at the time of the accident.

GOMPERS PREDICTS AGOOD MEETING Refuses to Forecast Fossil ble Action of Labor
 Federation

Atlanta. November 12.-On the evc of the opening session of the annual convention of the American Federation of Labor President Samuel Gompers to- night predicted one of the most ln- teresting meetings In the history of the organization.
 We arc hopeful of doing good work" :" said Mir Gompers. 'I anticipate an in- tensely interesting convention to agree upon conservative plans for more thorough organization of the working people of the country and to exercise all our activities to protect and ad- vance the interests of the working peo- pie and all our people. ss
 "On the eve of the convention I have full confidence in the intelligence, the faithfulness and the loyalty of the del egates in meeting the high expecta- tions of liberty and justice, loving American people,"
 MT. Gompers fatly declined to fore cast the action of the convention on any of the matters now engaging the attention of organized labor. It was his invariable custom. he said. to make first announcement of any recommen- dations he had to to the convention it. self.
 The executive council spent busy day in discussing the tentative draft of its annual report and whipping 1t into final shape It probably will be presented to the convention on Tuesday or Wednesday,. MT. Gompers expects to submit his report to the Federation at the opening meeting.
 Although there are. approximately two million union laboring men repre- sented at the meetings of the fedora ton. the convention membership Is limited to about 100. or about the size of the national House of Representa- lives. The idea is to make it as nearly as possible u deliberative body. In or der to keep il representative each del- egation has votes in proportion to the membership of the organization it rep resents. h~i r 1stt
 The convention probably will be in session about two weeks. Much time is consumed owing to the rules gov erning its procedure, which requires that all legislation must originate or the floor. that every measure must bo given due consideration by committee to which it is referred and that such committee shall make some report on each measure. Such a thing as smoth- ering a bill in committee is declared to be impossible under the federation rules.

Hotel Annex, May & Cooney and Other Business
 Houses Burned
BELIEVED BLAZE
 WAS INCENDIARY
About , O'clock Yesterday Morning Fire Was Discovered in May X Cooney Store and Burglars
 Are Suspected


 Huntsville, November 19.--(Speeial)-A blaze entailing a loss of nearly S2oo,ooo this morning destroyed the Huntsville Hotel annex, including the big mercantile houses of May & Cooney, Newman &' Schloss, Pittman Bros, M. A. Collins, hardware, and the Huntsville opera house, including the big drug firm, of camtrell te Allen. The fire is believed to have been incendiary.
 The losses roughly estimated are as follows.
 May & Cooney. dry goods, $75,oOO.
 NJ. A Collins, hardware, $160O0.
 Newman & Schloss, dry goods, Sl2,0W.
 Pittman Bros. dry goods, $lS,OoO.
 F. Hedrick confectioner, s3O00.
 D. A. McLaughling, confectioner, 5000.
 Camtrell X Allen, drugs, sl750o.
 Opera house building. s9o0o.
 Annex building, sSO,000.
 The total loss foots up to $l92.5OO.
 J. F. Penney of Birmingham is owner of the property and his insurance is about 60 per cent of the loss. The mer- chandise that was destroyed was insured for about G5 per cent of it's value. ss Started About 5 O'clock
 The fire started in the rear end of the May & Cooney store at about o'clock. Policemen and others who reached the scene first after the alarm agree in the opinion that the blaze was of incendiary origin Several pieces of cloth. dresses and undergarments were strewn out of the rear of the store. indicating that thieves had footed the place and lost some of the stolen articles. It Is thought that they accidentally set fire to the place while committing the robbery.
 The fire department almost succeeded in gaining control of the fire within few minutes after beginning work, but the blaze crept but of the roof and over fnro the old theatre, where it was caught by Letvv draught and famed into fury. A high wind was blowing and the blaze swept back through May & Cooney's, Pittman Bros. Newman & Schloss' and Collins. The old theatre burned like g. match box and blazing brands, were blown over a wide area in the city. A heavy rain was falling at the time and this, it is believed, prevented the spread of the fire into other business blocks nearby.
 ! The, Coilinsss hardware stele contained tnoiisInds or shotgun aad rife cartridges and their explosion was spectacular and dangerous feature of the fire.
 The loss is. the heaviest Huntsville has ever experienced.
 One year and eight days ago the main part of the Huntsville hotel was burned and the loss was S130,000 several of the firms that were total losers today suf- fering partial loss at that time.

PUBLIC HEALTHOF
 NEW YORK MENACED
Street Cleaners Strike Be- coming Serious Matter
 to Authorities

New York November 12.-New York 8 streets have become so filtered with piles of garbage as the result of the street cleaners strike, that Street Commissioner Edwards will begin tomorrow the use of dsinfectants He decided upon this treasure today after a tour of the city with pr. Ernest B. Lederle, commissioner of health, who feared that conditions were such as to menace public health. pr Ledere said he found conditions on tke Eastside pretty bad"
 Rain which is falling tonight is ex- pected to flush much of the refuse away. Bu, it was apparent today that It was accommodating faster than the inadequate force of strikebreakers was able to re- move it. The weather today, moreover. was like a summerlilse mildness, which dld much toward rendering the decay ing piles of matter more mehacing than ever
 Efforts of the department to remove the refuse on the lower Eastside today were comparatively successful, but in other parts OF the city tn. work was ham pered by the continuation of rioting. AL though protected by heavy squads of police, practically every cnvaicade of gar bage wagons that left the stables was soon surrounded by mobs. Hoots and ieers were followed by showers of stones. bottles and other missiles, and then by charges upon the police in efforts to drag 'Ne r''hhish f~c-, tie wagons Gangs of Eastside "GuerillasY joined with the riot
 Lo no nLner easoii apparently, than to wreak their vengeance on the offl- cers of the law. By vigorous use of their clubs the police always kept the upper hand, but this did not prevent many of the strikebreakers from desertins their wagons On the upper Eastside 100 police battled for over an hour with mob of 300 men and boys that at tackled a cavalcadc of wagons The riot CTS appeared to have determined leaders and made concerted rushes to reach the strikebreaking drivers Time and again the way would be cleared by the charges Of the mounted men only again to be closed up by the mob The police finally started the wagons going but not before a 9-year-old boy. Isaac Galman. hit by "a bottle thrown from the roof, was taken 10 hospital with a fractured skull The child probably will die.
 About a dozen persons, including two policemen. were taken to hospitals dur ing the day. Very few arrests, how ever. were made On many streets de- tectives were patrolling the roofs to pre- vent the throwing of missiles while the street cleaners were at work.

 He proceeded on the Pehan railway to his destination, where he conferred with a deputation from the Honan assembly, endeavoring to dissuade the delegates from the proposed declaration of the prov ince's independence, which he said would damage the thrones position seriously.
 The fact that the man upon whom the government depends more than anyone else Is coming to Picking has caused a general feeling of relief and of hope that he will evolve plans to end the present chaos.
 It is understood the court will remain In the forbidden city realizing that their departure would now be fatal. It is also understood that the throne is willing to accept a pension and retire to Jehol. if lsafetv is assured.s aJ'rinco Ching, acting l premier. does not desire to remain in office, but he continues to support the regent who has no other trusted ad- wiser.
