WASHINGTON, March 13.--Mme.
Jusserand, wife of the French am
bassador to Washington, has inau-
gurated a new fad, which all of her
friends are taking up, Gaping the

Ever since "Come Back TO Erin'' and

tempting to "put over a modern Irish
Ballad that would become equally as popular.
A hitherto unknown writer, Frederick
Knight Logan, has accomplished this with
his song Killarney, My Home Ger the

With the composers permission, we re-

PUBL|CUTTERANCES
WHILE IN CHICAGO
Leaders Had Planned to Get
Him Into Senatorial
Deadlock.

CHICAGO, Jan. n.-CompIete secju-
sion from the public had been provided
for President-elect Woodrow Wilson
here this evening. He is to attend the
banquet of the Commercial Club to-
night and make an address upon the
business situation of the country.
Efforts were to be made to get Mr..
Wilson to interfere in the legislative
deadlock at Springfield, but it was said
In advance that he would refuse to do
so.
Governor Wilson was to be met by
a reception committee of Commercial
Club members on his arrival here. He
was then to be taken directly to the
home of David B. Jones to spend the
time until the banquet. Prior to the
banquet he was to hold an informal re-
ception for the clubs committee at the
Jones residence.
After the banquet the President-elect
will return to the Jones residence 10

seeing Wilson they plan to put tine
Illinois legislative situation UP to him,
including the prospects for electing two
Democratic United States Senators from
Illinois. They were to ask him to
bring peace among the warning factions
of the party.
An interesting situation will be pre-
scented at the dinner where Governor
Wilson will sit between Governor De-
neen and Governor-elect Dunno. The
custom of the Commercial Club bars
politics at its dinners.

JESUIT COLLEGE
NEAR BALTIMORE
DAMAGED BY FIRE
Workmen's Buildings al
Woodstock Fall Prey
to Flames.

BALTIMORE, Jan. u.-Woodstock
College was damaged and some Of the
outbuildings destroyed by 5000 fire at
the Jesuit institution last night.
Theologians and philosophers in black
cassocks turned firemen Immediately
after the fire was discovered in the
workmen's house, and Ii was due to the
valiant efforts Of priests and scholastics
that the main buildings did not fall a
prey to the flames.
Part of the wing occupied by the phil
osophers caught fire., doing damage
amounting to a few hundred dollars.
Soon afterward crowds of countians ar
rived on the scene in carriages and au-
tomobiles and these aided in fighting
the blaze.
1t was shortly before ] O'Clock when
the members +of the faculty. and the
students had retired for the night that
cries of fire aroused them. In the burn
ing building were twenty-five colored
employees of the institution. and some
of these had narrow escapes. While
some had little difficulty in reaching
safety others were taken from the burn
ing building on ladders.
When the students had partly donned
their clothing and reached the building,
which is 100 yards or more away from
the main buildings. the Rev. Joseph
Hanselman and other priests were al
down the walls to prevent spcrad of

MAY CHECK USING
LEASED WIRES FOR
PERSONAL MESSAGES
Interstate Commission Order
Probe of Telegraph and
Telephone Lines.

A general investigation concerning
contracts for private telegraph and
telephone wires, and of the allegations
that private and leased wires are used
for personal messages by others than
the contracting parties, was ordered by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
today.
This Investigation, contemplating as
IL does the issuance of orders from
the Interstate Commerce Commission
forbidding free personal use. or use at
lower than the published tariff rates,
of these leased or contract telephone
and telegraph wires, may stop the prac-
tice in every neighborhood of using an
others private telephone wire.
The order issued today will prob
ably be far reaching in its affect For
some time the Interstate Commerce
Commission has contemplated an in
vestigaticn of the wire companies, and
the. present inquiry. started on motion
OF The western Union Telegraph Com
pany, is regarded as an opening wedge.
May Affect Private Phones.
The inquiry has not been restricted in
any way, but the order regarding II has
been made sufficiently broad to permit
the commission to go into the matter
of private or home telephone contracts,
IL II so wishes. Whether or not any
ruling forbidding the free use of wires
by others than the lessees, will be made
sufficiently broad to cover telephones in
private residences that may be used
from time to time by neighbors is not
known. but such a thing Is easily pos
sible under the order of inquiry made.
The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, which controls the Bell Telephone
system, has used practically every
means at command to discourage the
practice of the use of private telephone
and telegraph wires by others than the
lessees.
Basis Of Complaint.
Recently complaint was made to the
commission that under terms of private
wire contracts of the Western Union
use is made of its public wires at less
than the published tariff rates, and that
persons other than the parties to the
contracts frequently use these wires for
the transmission Of private messages.
1t was upon this complaint that the
Intertate Commerce Commission insti-
tuted the investigation ordered today.
The commission will, on its own mo-
ton. 90 into the matter of rates rules
and regulations therefor, and the prac-
tees hereunder, with view to the is
suance of such order or orders as may
be necessary"
The American Telegraph and Tele-
Telegraph Company, and the Postal
Telegraph Company are made respon-
dents TO the proceeding, which will be
set for hearing at a future date.
The complaint is aimed principally at
the big users Of leased telephone and
telegraph wires operating Interstate or
between the big cities.

scored at meeting Of the Relief hook

teer fire company in the city, last night,
for their failure to pay attention to the
request of the truck company for a
new building. The sanitary conditions
Of the present building are said to be
In very bad state, the firemen being
required to sleep directly over a stable
with only thin partitions between them
and the horses. Entrance to the club
rooms is through a narrow space be-
tween the truck and stalls, and I'D a
narrow flight of stairs.
For several years past the company
has endeavored to nave the conditions
remedied. but have been unable to Sc
cure relief from the city. More than
ten years ago the city purchased a lot
adjoining the present building on the
east on which to build a new truck
house. but nothing further has been
done.
Officers of the truck company were
elected as follows: John H. Trimyer,
president; Frank c. Spinks, first vice
president: ]. Edward Shinn, second vice
president: J. Edward Howard, secre-
tary; E. Steuart Smith, treasurer; r. NJ.
