Bic PRISON FIRE
LOOKSL|KE PLOT
Factory Burns at Chicago, In
periIing Hundreds in Cells.
Guards Prevent Escapes.

CHICAGO, MAY 23.-An investigation
of fire which burned the broom fac
tory at the Bridewel and threatened
the lives Of hundreds of prisoners early
today has been begun by the county
authorities.
II has been rumored that the fire
was incendiary and was part of plot
for wholesale delivery of prisoners.
The burned factory was 30 feet from
two cell houses in which 1000 prison
ers were confined. Dense volumes of
smoke poured through the barred win
dows Of the cell house.
1t is the belief of the authorities that
the fire may have been started in order
to force a transfer of prisoners to an
other cell building and that in the con-
fusion break for liberty would be
made. The prisoners at the Bridewell
do not wear stripes.
The prisoneres were ordered by the
guards to lie fiat on the floor. Careful
watch was Kept to begin the transfer if
it became actually necessary, but the
fire was extinguished before the lives
OF the prisoners were actually endan-
gered

Shirtwaist Man Back
On Atlanta Streets;
Bit Late This Year

The shirtwaist man appeared in spots
on Atlanta streets today, and because
of his late advent created no ripple as
he might have done earlier in the sea-
son.
When the custom first became estab-
lished ii was good form to wear only
a white shirt-this to please the ladies',
OF course. 1t WAS soon discovered,
however, that white shirt remained so
about FIVE minutes. if the wearer hap
pened to be within a miles radius of
the Peachtree viaduct. For that reason
it was decided that something little
less attractive to Atlanta's choice col
lection of sooty SCOT would be worn in
the future.
Freed from the hot embarrassment
of a coat the shirtwaist man looked
very happy this morning, even though
a little lumpy in spots

BROWN SAYS 7. R..

Third Term Sentiment.

Governor Joseph NJ. Brown thinks

py circumstance for the Democrats.
The governor believes that a level
headed, reasonably conservative Demo
cratic nominee would beat Mr.. Roose-

Unless mistake the American peo-
pie, the time has not yet come when
they are willing to throw to the winds

grave perils of a third term in the pres
dency for any man." declared the gov
ernor today, Il still think that the
American people will hesitate before
giving to Roosevelt what Washington
refused and Grant was denied
"Mr. Roosevelt spoke truly when from
the white house in 1908 he proclaimed
dignified refusal to consider third
term for himself, and said that, all
though he had been elected only once,
yet the people in their anti third term
ideals respected the substance and not
the form of things. and that he de-
clined to be a party to the upsettlng Of
this wholesome precedent

Drinking Water Trust
Arrives in Atlanta;
Three Firms Merge

Even drinking water has come under
the rule of combination, and eompe-
tition is no more. The Atlanta Mineral
Water Supply Company has taken over
the old competing concerns-the Bow
den company and the Benscot COM
pany-an has an exclusive agency for
Tate Springs water, and now all lithia
sells a the same price and comes from
the same wagon. You can pay your
money and take your choice.
Atlanta drinks 1000 gallons of lithia
water every day in the warm months
and pays an average price of fifteen
cents gallon for the privilege. For
years the Bowden and the Benscot
companies have been rivals for Atlanta
business. The Benscot springs are
north of Austell, Ga, while the Bow
den springs are d few miles south
This season the stockholders of the
two companies got together and de-
eided to make one wagon 10 do the
work of two. They consolidated, and
Guy Holcomb. who managed the Bow
den company, is now president of the
new concern.
But the price of lithia water hasn't
been boosted 1t remains at 70 cents
per three gallon case, and you have
your choice of brands.

These laws must be enforced, and

Washington, Aug. 27.-An official in
qu1ry into contributions to Colonel
Roosevelt's recent primary campaign
and into the charges that have been
made in regard to the 1904 Standard
OIL payment is assured. The SEN
ate, without a dissenting vote, passed
the Penrose-Reed resolution authoriz-
ing the investigation, which will be
made under the direction Of Senator
Clapp of Minnesota.
Not only will this inquiry lay bare
the facts in regard to Colonel Roose-
velt's campaign funds, but it will open
up the possibility of disclosing any
financial transactions that have taken
place between John D. Archbold or
George W. Perkins with any member
of congress. The resolution, as finally
adopted, specifically gives the Clapp
investigating committee the power to
inquire into all such financial transac-
lions and to call for the correspond
ence relating to them.

CHARGES AGAINST
RAY ARE UPHELD
House Committees Findings
Hit Army Officer.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The house
committee on war department expen-

B. Ray, U. S. A., whom the president
has just nominated to be deputy pay
master general of the army, has been
engaged in political activity, particu-
larly in the interest of President Taft,
has been four times charged with seri-
GUS ofenses, never INDICATED, and
never been disciplined more severely
than a reprimand.
The investigation of Major Rays
case attracted wide attention because
of the investigating committee's
charges that Secretary Stimson was
Withholding important papers bearing
upon it. 1t is believed the commit
tees report was fastened by President
Taft's nomination of Major Ray for
promotion. Ray is in line for advance
ment under the law. 1t was said the
president and Secretary Stimson de-
cided to send his nomination and leave
it's confirmation with the senate. That
a fight will be made there has been
announced.
