ed in the loss of the lives OF many
girl garment workers. shifted Thurs
day 10 the public inquest conducted by
Coroner r. A. Seymour. Representa-
tives of several public bodies were in
attendance and the investigation early
resolved itself into a general probe.
Ambrose Fuller. shipping clerk of
the burned factory. testified that he
discovered the fire on a wooden ledge
in the stairway between the first and
second floors, where a quantity of
robe CLOTH" or plush, and old books
were stored. The exact cause of the
fire was not fixed.
1t was brought out from other wit
nesses that the fire escapes were never
used in conducting fire drills; that the
usual fire alarm, a succession of or
derly bell taps, was not given, but
that the alarm was sounded by pro-
longed ringing OF the fire alarm. The
lines formed, however. without dis
order and the operatives marched out
quickly with no crOwding on the
stairs The fire escape was in good
working order, but flames from the
windows made IL impossible 10 use
them with safety. Each inmate said
smoking was strictly prohibited in
the factory.
Thus far Il persons are known to
have died as a result of the FIRE.

GREEKS TAKE PASS
IN HEROIC FIGHT
BulgarianS in Bad Shape With
Turkey Adding Its Help to
Former AlIieS-AppeaIS to
Powers.

ATHENS, July 25.-Advices Friday
confirming the capture by the Greeks
of Kresna Pass, indicate that the VIC
tory followed one of the most des-
perate battles of the whole Balkan
trouble. Kresna Pass is in the line
of hills and is regarded as a most
important strategic position.
The struggle for possession of the
hills continued necessarily for many
days and the losses on both sides were
appalling. The Bulgarians were far
outnumbered and their defense was
no less heroic than the aggressive ad-
vances of the Greeks d.
NJ. NeniZelos is in conference with
King Constantine, framing the reply
of Greece to the request of Roumania
for an armistice with Bulgaria. The
Roumanian ruler says he is in a pO-
sition to guarantee the Allies full
protection during a suspension of hos
tilities.
To Turkeys request for a resump-
ton of diplomatic relations with this
nation, the Greek government has re-
piled that the reported massacres on
the part of Turks renders it impos-
sible.

LONDON, July 25.-Mrs. Emme-

her life.
The TRANSMISSION was administered
after a consultation among several of
the most eminent physicians of Lon

is admittedly most grave.
Successive hunger strikes in Hollo-
way Jail, following each other so
closely that Mrs. Pankhurst has never
recovered from one before inaugural

nervous and organic system that she
now is in danger of death.

friends said they would not be sur
prised if Mrs. Pankhurst should die.

early in the summer for three years.
Mrs. Pankhurst had not eaten a

helpless and precarious condition.

her on ticket Of leave. Each time she
has been at liberty she has ventured
out to some public meeting before her
health was restored, and has been
clapped back into jail by Scotland
Yard.
Renewing her hunger strike before
her system had recovered from the
former starvation period Mrs. Pank-
hurst has grown steadily weaker and
more emaciated.
Even those who are radically op-
posed to woman suffrage and have no
sympathy whatever with Mrs Pank-
hurst's cause, no longer sneer at the
aged leader. They admit that wheth-
er right or wrong the untamed wo-
man has the spirit Of the martyr and
the courage of her convictions.
