FLAMES THREATEN
MADISON CENTRE
AFTER EXPLOSION
FIanagan's Hall Is Destroyed
While Hydrant Connection
Delays Firemen.
Especial to the Evening star.I

MADISON, April ga fire that
threatened to spread to other build
ings in the centre of the town broke
out shortly before noon today in the
tailoring establishment of Antonio
Rillo, in the basement of Flanagan S
Hall, on the south side of Wayerly
place.
Before the firemen arrived the blaze
was well under way and was creep
ing to the upper stories of the build
ing, a three-story frame structure. A
quantity Of gasoline used by the
tailor for cleaning clothes, which was
stored in the rear of his shop, aided
the fire in making progress.
Shortly after the fire apparatus
came a tank of this gasoline exploded,
and in a few moments the whole
building was in flames.
The second story of the building is
occupied as an apartment, and the
frightened residents hurriedly made
their escape. They were able to save
only a small part of their household
goods. however. The firemen expert
enced considerable difficulty in con-
Meeting hose to the hydrants, and the
building where the fire started was
gutted almost before the first stream
of water was directed on it.
Seeing they were unable to save the
hall building, the firemen bent their
efforts on preventing the flames
spreading to adjoining structures.
Practically all the buildings in Wav-
erly place are of frame construction,
and most of them are old and dry and
furnish fair food for the flames.
Persons keeping shops and living in
buildings near where the fire started
began removing their valuables al
most as soon as the fire started, and
the square soon was piled high with
furniture, bedding ana stock from the
stores. The firemen were aided in
fighting the flames by a large crowd
of citizens, for business was prac-
tically suspended when the fire peril
assumed a dangerous aspect.
Flanagan's Hall was valued at
about $1,000 1t is expected, however,
the damage will amount to many
times this figure

The ENJOYS were not ready as yet
to make any announcement as to
their plan. During their sessions the
ENJOYS have seen several prominent

tions in the southern republic. They
have list of well-informed Mexicans

shades of opinions, and acceding to
harmonize the viewpoint of all ele-

May suspend Military.
In the absence of authoritative in
formation from the mediators, con-
lecture took wide range as to the
various plans they are likely to COM
slider. one of these was that at the
outset both sides might be asked to
temporarily suspend aggressive mili-
tary action while the mediation pro-
ceedngs were going on While this
would not suspend ordinary military
or naval preparations, yet 1t would
hold in abeyance any decisive forward
movement pending the efforts toward
mediation.
While the ENJOYS would make no
comment upon this report 1t was re-
garded as a reasonable preliminary
step, and one which probably would
receive their attention. The report
also persisted that one of the pro-

ENJOYS treated as one of the many
conjeetural ideas beng advanced in
their study of the entire field.
AS result of the conferences held
by two of the ENJOYS Ministers Naon
and Suarez. with Secretary Bryan
last night there is little doubt the
mediators understand pretty clearly
the tentative viewpoint of the United
States; but 1t is understood that
neither side has as yet submitted any
written or final statement of what
they would or would not accede to-
they way being left clear to canvass
each side and seek gradually to bring
them nearer together rather than to
develop definite points of disagree-
ment.
