Fire in Moonshine Alley.

E'iremen responding 10 an alarm sound
ed last night about 1870 o'clock from
lst and + streets northwest saw so
bright a blaze that they We're prepared to
attack what they thought was fire in
the government printing office or a large
mercantile establishment in that vicinity.
When they neared the fire, however they
realized that II was not in one of the
large structures. but in sheds in what is
known as Moonshine alley.
The fire started in the shed in the rear
OF the house of Mrs. Julia Miller 40 +
street northwest. and quickly spread to
the adjoining sheds. So much headway
was gained by the flames that other
sheds were quickly attacked and when
the smoke had cleared away the ~firemen

damaged structures.
.,everal horses and T..ules in two stables
in the alley were taken to the street, and
vehicles were taken to points beyond

structures Is estimated at about $500.
Nothing was found to suggest the origin
Of the fire.

Says Underwood Bill Will Not
Pass the Senate Until Mid
!. die of August.
DOUBTS CURRENCY LAW
WILL BE PUT THROUGH
Declares Every Senator Is to Have
Chance to Make Position and
Record Clear.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA. May 10 = Senator
Penrose today declared that the Under
wood tariff bill will not come to a vote
in the Senate until the, middle TT August
and perhaps the vote may be delay ed
beyond that date.
He asserted that he did not think there
would be any currency legislation at
the special session, basing his deciara-
ton upon the fact that the members Of
the House and the Senate will be too
weary after their wrangles over the tariff
to take up currency after the disposal of
the Underwood bill
While the senator did not declare in
so many words that the dignified SEN
ators will resort to fine. prolonged
flibuster. he did say that every senator
would be afforded every opportunity to
give complete expression of his feed
ings on tariff legislation. and upon every
phase of it. AS an example he pointed
to the resolution offered by himself yes
terday providing for the holding of pub
lice hearings on the Underwood bill
Will Debate Resolution.
1T will take at least a week to debate
the relative merits of that resolution =
said the senator, and he also thought
there would be other suggestions or
amendments which would take a similar
time to debate
1t is evident from the attitude of Sen
ator Penrose that the republican side of
the Senate IS prepared for long talkfest
upon anything tna. may be proposed and
that no gag rule will be put into effect.
Senators opposed to the democratic
measure" continued Senator Penrose,
will insist upon giving every ground for
their objection so that their records as
senators may be complete
Senator Penrose said that he anticipates
the tariff legislation will pass the Senate
by 4 majority of seven or eight, but it
will not pass until the men opposed to it
get tired of filibustering.
I'VE recognize" he said, that the
democrats have working majority in the
Senate. 1t should also be taken into ac-
count that two or three so-called repub-
l;can senators are disposed to support
democratic tariff legislation. From this it
would seem that the democratic majority
is likely to be seven or eight, which is a
substantial majority in body numbering
less than 1CO.'
