FIRE PROMPTLY STOPPED
WITH AID OF MILITIAMEN
Several Smaller Blazes in Catas-
trophe Thought to Have Been
Firebugs' Work.

SALEM, Mass. June 27.-The city be-
came excited for a time tonight when
general alarm was sounded for a fire,
which was not subdued until it had de-
stroyed two houses and badly damaged
a third on the western side Of the burned
district. brisk wind blowing over the
glowing embers of Thursdays conflagra-
ton carried the sparks high and far over
the undamaged portion of the residential
quarters.
Mtlitfamen dropped their police du-
ties and turned fire1ghters. carrying
hose up ladders and assisting the regu-
lar f1remen in other ways.
Prompt action of the fire department
and the militia made it certain with
in an hour after the fire was discovered
that there would be no further spread.
Not Definitely Known.
While the cause of the blaze was not
definitely decided. it was believed to
have started from a spark from the
still glowing embers of Thursdays fire.
Shortly before 10 o'clock heavy driz-
zle of rain set in. - From the point of
view Of the firefighters this was desir-
the tent colonies. The relief committee
! at once began preparations to provide
adequate shelter.
The state police, under Deputy George
c. Neal. began today with the city Of
f1cials an Investigation of reports from
several sources that a number of the
smaller fires which contributed to the
destruction OF one-half of Salem during
Thursdays conf1agration were of incen-
diary origin.
.. Will be Reported.
An effort was made also to determine
the cause OF the main fire which started
in. the Korn Leather works. The result
Of the Investigations will be reported at
the cause of the main fire, which started
will begin early next week.
!, While the police were looking into the
| cause of the fires the state and the city
relief committee. working together, per-
fected their organizations. Edmund Bill
lings, collector Of the port of Boston.
who Is member Of the state committee,
declared tonight that nearly a million
dollars would be needed for ADEQUATE
relief
|. This was payday for hundreds of mill
operatives who lost both homes and en-
ployment by the fire. Some of the firms
were unable to make payments, as their
records were buried under smoking
ruins.
Others not only paid the wages due,
but added extra money for the married
men. Several of the business houses
which suffered from the fire opened
temporary executive Offices and an
nounced that they would begin Monday
clearing away the debris preparatory to
erecting new plants.

People Murdered, He Says.

II am impelled to this statement by
two considerations. First that the people
of an inoffensive nation are being mur-
dered in cold blood: second. that the So
called government of Albania is merely
a state of anarchy.
II had read the statements Of the press
treating the Durazzo government as a
serious subject and attempting to give it
dignity by ridiculous falsehoods, and I
deem II to be my duty to expose 1t as a
screaming farce performed before a suf-
fering and bleeding people.
The Wied government has shown skill
and success in one respect only. 1t has
been able to prevail upon the various re-
ligious and racial force OF Albania to set
upon each other with murderous purpose.
Hundreds of Albanian lives have thus
been sacrificed at the hands of Albanians.
THE process has been as follows: The

Another decision which Col Roosevelt
reached was to stop the steady process

was told that his constant interviews

on him. and that for the next few
weeks. at least he should see as few
persons as possible.

night, Il shall see no one at Sycamore

Hinebaugh to Take Charge.
Col. Roosevelt was asked whether the
burden Of taking the lead in the pro-

resentative Hinebaugh OF Illinois. chair
man of the progressive congressional
committee, would have charge of the
congressional campaign, and that In each
state the state chairman and national
committeeman would be in charge.
He nevertheless expects to keep In
close touch with the more prominent
leaders, such as George w. Perkins OF
the campaign. All important matters Of

for The first time as officially indors-

voted unanimously to support th-
candidates Of the state Federation Of

The action was taken at the request
Of Mrs Karl Karston, of the Women

the association give the candidates
its support preCipitated warm de

the ground that the constitution uf
the organization prohibited such a
step
The obstacle was overcome by
motion asking unanimous consent to
suspend the constitution IN order that
the Endorsement might be made The
motion was made by Leonard Gross
