Twentyeight men were killed in a
fire which swept through the upper
floors of the Arcadia hotel, a five-storv
brick lodging house in the south end
of Boston. Others are missing. Scores
were taken to hospitals suffering from

According to William Walsh, the

the building when the fire was dis
covered. The victims were men in
poor circumstances who had resorted
to the place for a nights lodging.
Caught in the crowded hunks on the
top floor oil the building and in the
small rooms on the fourth floor, they
were helpless. When they were
aroused the stairways were in flames
and there was a mad rush for the
fire escapes at the rear. Practically

EGG SHORTAGE SEVERE
Western Pennsylvania to PAY 60 Cents
by Christmas Time.

by Christmas Time.
"Sixty-cent eggs" is the prediction
egg brokers and dealers hold out to
the people of Pittsburg for a Christ
mas present. Not within ten years,
they declare, has there been such a
shortage of eggs in this city, and i'll
deed in all western Pennsylvania.
Today there are 100000 dozen
eggs in cold storage warehouses of
the city as compared with twice the
number year ago. This state Of
affairs, they aver, is the result of the
recently enacted state law requiring
that eggs may not be kept in storage
more than eight months.
AS practically all eggs are stored in
April it follows that they must be
taken out not later than the end of
December. Fresh eggs were sold here
today for so and 50 cents a dozen.
