$4,000 PERSONS SEE BIG
LUMBER YARD FIRE
Distant Observers Believed All
Northeastern Part OF Har-
lem Was Burning.
FLAMES LEAP 100 FT. IN AIR
Crowd So Big Police Have Diff
Guilty in Establishing Fire
Lines-Loss Estimated
at $4,000.

Over fifty thousand persons gathered
at 12Sth street and Second avenue last
night TO witness fire in the lumber
yard of Clark e. wilkins which was
full of spectacular features.
Thousands of feet OF lumber in the
place were a raging furnace in few
moments. and soon columns OF flames
were Ieaping one hundred feet or more
in the air. The loss was estimated at
about $4,000.
The fire was discovered about 7:30
o'clock. and had a good Roadway be-
fore the fire-fghting apparatus arrived.
The firemen found thousands OF persons
surrounding the burning yards. and
they INSTRUCTED the way so much that
II was necessary to call the police re-
serves from the 10th, 10Th. East
10th and Lenox avenue police stations,
and II was with difficulty that fire
line was established. One hundred
horses, released from the stables OF the
American Ice Company, at 12sth street
and the Harlem River, aided the police
effectively in their work Of dispensing
the crowd, as the animals, panic
stricken at the sight OF the flames. ran
wildly about the streets and sent the
spectators scurrylng TO safety.
The fire could be plainly seen I'm all
parts OF the Bronx, while hundreds
gathered on Washington Heights to
watch the blaze, which was so alarm
ing In It's appearance that in the opin-
ion OF many tho whole northeastern
portion Of Harlem was being destroyed.
The hreboats Lawrence. Mcclellan
and Sophia Jones helped fight the
flames. They turned tremendous
streams OF water on the burning yard,
but I'm. spite OF the work Of both the
land and water branches Of the Fire
Department, Il seemed for a time that
tenement houses from Nos. 2iS0 %
80. 1896 on Second avenue would ne
consumed The flremen eNerted every
effort to divert this danger by com
pletely soaking the frame buildings
with water and succeeded in saving
them.
The families occupying the houses
thought their homes were about 10 be
destroyed, and quickly threw their be-
longings TO the street When IL was
seen that the danger to these buildings
had passed Fire Chief Kenlon ordered
the tenants to be reassured/and TO re-
turn 10 their homes. The fire was UNI
der control at .S:i5 O'clock
Directly opposite the lumber yard
on 12Sth street is the lumber yard OF
the Interborough Rapid Transit Com
pany. At intervals streams OF water
were turned upon the piles Of lumber
there as sparks continually fell on IT,
The board walk on l2Sth street caught
fire from sparks and was partly de-
stroyed.
The building OF the Hecker-Jones
flour concern at No. 303 East 127th
street. also was threatened for a time.

Pritchett Advocates Regulation.
President Henry s. Pritchett OF the

DR.. Butler. he justified and advocated.
Most Of his points he illustrated by rel
erence TO the medical profession, on the
training for which both here ana In
Europe the Carnegie Foundation has Is
sued exhaustive bulletins"
Has the state the right" he asked TO
regulate the profession OF medicine, OF
law. OF teaching. and has 1t the ABILITY 10
do so without violating our Teutonic Ideal
Of individual liberty?"
Both of these questions he answered In
the affirmative. reasoning that these three
professions were quasi-public. and that
the Teutonic ideal OF Individual liberty
recognized the restrictions of public re-
sponslbilty. But the rules laid down by
the state. he said, must be fair TO all
parties, all sects. all conditions OF men,
and, as fulfilling this condition. he recon-
mended that the state demand OF every
applicant that he have fair general
education, and. second. that he nave
