REPORTS EXECUTED
v. S. Citizen Claims Four Young Men
Captured by Federals In Com
Pany With Rebels Are Shot.

Tucson, Ariz. - Adyices received
from Americans in Aqua Prieta state
that four American young men oil
Pirtlesville, near Douglas, whose
names were Adams, Young, Howard
and Stanley, were executed by fed
eral soldiers at Aqua Prieta after hav-
ing been captured by the federals in
company with number of other rebel
prisoners after the battle of Aqua
Prieta. Another American claims that
he was standing beside the Mexican
officer in command of the firing squad
and saw the Pirtleville boys face their
death but was powerless to aid them.
He said the commanding officer gave
the command to aim" and then, seiz-
ing the lone spectator by the shoul-
ders, turned him squarely around SO
that, although he heard the shots, he
did not witness the execution. He
saw the bodies of the four Americans
lying on the ground afterward.

The shillalah, which showed at
Louth. that it has not entirely lost its
old importance as factor in deciding
elections, Is no raw limb of a tree.
1t is almost as much work of art as
q we'll balanced cricket bat. The old
shillalahs were as carefully looked
after by their loving owners as is a
rifle in the wilds. Cut from the stur-
diest of young blackthorns, and show
ing as little taper as an ebony ruler,
1t was weighted with lead or iron at
the end nearest the grip, SO that its
center of gravity was about four
fifths of the way from the hitting end.

kept In the neighborhood of the farm

of Manhattan, who appointed Miller
to Office and is his immediate chief
Fire Commissioner Waldo made a
thorough investigation of conditions
existing in the building, although he
has no authority over the construction
of buildings or to force the adoption
of fire escapes and life saving devices
so that building can be made death
proof as well as fire proof. The Off
cial statement of the results of this
investigation is a terrible indictment
against the responsible city officials.
He found that the one fire escape was
practically useless-a ghastly joke in
the name of compliance with the law.
The stairways were steep and mar
row-too narrow for two persons to
walk them abreast-and on the floors
by iron gates, so that the employees
could be penned in like cattle. Mr..
Waldo declared his belief that the
doors and one of these gates were
locked at the time the fire occurred.
Fire Chief Edward F. Croker, his
strong nerves shaken and his heart
sick with the horror of the frightful
calamity, told of his vain efforts to
combat just such conditions as
caused this great tragedy, and point
ed unerringly to lax officials as re-
sponsible for the ruthless sacrifices of
the scores of human lives. In this
connection a close inspection of the
premises revealed the fact that the
stairway on the Washington place
side Of the building ends abruptly at
the level of the tenth floor and does
not proceed to the roof.
Cause of the Fire.
The cause of the fire has been def
nitely fixed. 1t started in the north
west corner of the cutting room OF
the Triangle Waist Co., on the eighth
floor. A lighted cigarette or match
was tossed into a pile of clippings

trying to pick out of the CHASTITY line
of corpses the fragment of a body

rolling cry of dread from the watch
ing throng happened while the blaze
was at it's height. Against fire-red
background of leaping flames, young
man and girl appeared together at a
window on the eighth floor. Holding
the girl firmly by the hand, the man
was seen to fold her to his breast and
press kiss on her lips. She jumped
to her death upon the pavement. He
followed an instant later.
One woman jumped from the eighth
floor of the burning building and her
clothes caught in hook on the out
side of the building Thousands saw
her hang there and burn to death.
There was no way to rescue her.
The scene that presented itself with
the arrival of the doctors from the
various hospitals was one never to be
forgotten.
Leaps for Ladder and Misses.
A girl ON the eighth floor leaped for
a fireman's ladder which reached only
to the sixth floor. She missed, struck
the edge of a life net and was picked
up with her back broken. From one
window girl of about 13 years, a
woman, a man and two women with
their arms about one another, threw
themselves to the ground in rapid
succession. The little girl was
whirled to the New York hospital in
an automobile. She screamed as the
driver and policeman lifted her into
the hallway. A surgeon came out,
gave one look at her face and touched
her wrist.
"She is dead" he said.
One girl jumped into horse blan-
ket held by firemen and policemen.
The blanket ripped like cheese cloth,
and her body was mangled almost be-
yond recognition. Another dropped
into a tarpaulin held by three men.
Her weight tore it from their grasp
and she struck the street, breaking
almost every bone in her body. AL
most at the same moment man SOM
ersaulted down upon the shoulder of
policeman holding the tarpaulin. He
glanced off, struck the sidewalk and
was picked up dead.

lglIS Death TOLL
OF new YORK FIRE

The floor was Uttered with tinderlike
scraps of cloth, waste and lint, and
the fire spread as though from an eX-
plosion. 1t is claimed that warning
message was sent by telegraphic
writing machine to the employees on
the top floor, reading: run for your
lives; the building is on fire." but as
it was received Just at the closing
hour it was regarded as joke. More
than so bodies, nearly of them women,
were found piled up to the height of
mans shoulder iammed up against
the iron grill door which locked them
in from the stairway. This door was
one of those which were kept locked
to pen the employees in during work
ing hours and to enable the foremen
to search them before they went
home.
Door Bars Escape.
The pity and the horror of the loss
of life of the helpless wage earning
girls in this group was that they
could see the stairway Just outside
which led to safety but were COM
PEELED to beat helplessly against the
barrier under the tortures of the ap
preaching flames until they dropped
writhing and prayed for the calm of
death. Chief Croker himself discov-
cred this group and declared it was
the most shocking sight of inconceiv-
able torture and deplorable loss of
life he had ever witnessed. The
bodies recovered which were partly
recognizable have been practically all
identified. They number 81 out of
the 141. The rest of the bodies are
burned almost beyond any chance of
recognition and many of them were
stripped of all effects or identification
marks by the flames. Two score of
these bodies probably never will be
identified and will have to be buried
in common grave. Morris Blanck,
one of the proprietors of the Triangle
Waist Co., visited the scene and
talked with the officials. He declared
that at least two valuable minutes
were lost in attempting to eXtinguish
the fire before the employees turned
their attention to escape and the saw
ing of lives. He said that when the
panic started he fled to the roof
