NO QUORUM AT
COUNCIL MEETING

City Council did not meet as a
committee OF the whole last night
owing to the absence of several OF
the members. A conference with j.
Austin Ellison. secretary Of the
Board Of Health. for the purpose OF
discussing a proposed health ordi-
nance, had also been scheduled, and
while Mr.. Ellison was there it was
necessary to postpone the con-er-
ence.
Councilmen we're also there to take
up with City Solicitor Hastings a
discussion as to their authority in re-
funding fines imposed in the city
court. Mr.. Hastings was at the city
hall, but this meeting was postponed
until tonight.
Councilman Stover had to go home
early in the evening due TO an i'll
ness from which he has been suffer-
ing for several days and which last
night became very acute. Councilman
Kane, who has been i'll for several
weeks, Is still unable to attend the
meetings and some of the other mem
bers had to leave early so the busi-
ness Of the evening was put over un-
til tonight.

They are a part of the Judiciary collec-
tion for the State House at Dover.
In the store were many oil paint
ines by famous artists and all OF them
were destroyed or damaged There
were several paintings by Stewart, Null
holland, Weber. Essig, Brandt biz
collection of Carl Webcrs paintings and
another big collection of Walter b.
Iane's works, all OF them of much
value. Some belonged to Mr.. Yergers
private art collection and others were
held in stock for SALE The frames on
some OF them were very costly and
other frames not yet placed We're worth
equally as much money, several being
gold laid.
The Hardcastie art store, which ad-
joins the Yerger building was also
damaged to a considerable extent by
the smoke and water Il will take
some time to determine just what the
loss will amount to. The fire did not
reach the store. but much OF the con-
tents was soaked with water. The
Dure building at No. 421, on the
north of the Yerger store, was also
damaged by the smoke and water. A.
r. Saylor's printery was on fire once
OF twice, but was only slightly dam
aged.
In bay window OF the building on
the north of the Yerger building. the
upper floors Of which are used as an
1 apartment house, sat a young woman
with a very young baby during the
/ fire. Despite the excitement about
! the building, and clouds Of smoke
rolling past her window. she sat ser
rene and seemed to be in no way
alarmed.
While returning from the fire a car
OF the Wilmington and Philadelphia
! Traction Company and the engine OF
the Water Witch Fire Company col
lided at Tenth and Shipley streets
when the auto skidded on the icy
street.
Police Captain Charles u Evans
accompanied by DR.. william e. Sher-
wood. who has been attending Mr..
Yerger went into the building late
last night and discovered fire on the
second gloor. The fire was confined
to couch and Captain Evans soor
extinguished IT,
Captain Evans accompanied Dr
Sherwood to get some papers stored
in the building.
While working about the fire a
member of the Washington Fire Com
pany lost a gold watch. II is hoped
the finder will return it to the Wash
/ ington company's headquarters II
French street near Fourth.
Mr.. Yerger. who was i'll at the
! time Of the fire was suffering greatly
today from nervousness He an
J nounced, however. that the burned
. portion OF the building would be re
, built and the business continued. Th'
! loss to the building and stock by fir
, and water was placed by Mr.. Verge
at between $15 600 and $50 coo. Thi
is partly covered by insurance. Ei
, win J. Hardcastle, whose art gal
/, lery is at No All Shipley street, az
Joining the burned building, was Il
, danger of destruction at times
, places his loss at $1,000. This, toe
/, Is fully covered by insurance. Tn
. greater damage done at the Hardcas
tie store was due to water AM
smoke.

LONDON, March l2.--The possibility
Of settlement Of the Irish home rule
controversy is in the forefront OF popu-
lar interest. The opinions of the various
parties as to the effect Of the concessions
offered in the House of Commons by
Premier Asquith differed widely. The
Unionists, as a rule, expressed them
selves wholly unsatisfed with the sug.
gested method of voting by counties on
the exclusion of Ulster or portions of it
from the operation of the home rule bill.
Nationalsts. on the other hand, declared
that the cabinet had gone 70 the most
extreme limit in its movement toward
Cancellation. The independent opinion Of
the country seems inclined TO the feeling
that the concessions really offer an op-
portunity for Cancellation, and this feel
ing is strengthened by Sir Edward Car
sons counter offer on behalf Of the
Ulster Unionists 10 submit the sug-
gested concessions to an Ulster confer
ence. providing the limitation ON the
exclusion of Che northern counties TO o
period Of six years be struck out.
