BIRMINGHAM is VISITED BY A DIS
kSTROUS EARLY MORNING
BLAZE.
PROPERTY LOSS ENORMOUS
Store, Hotel, Saloon and Restaurant
In Ruins-Four City Firemen Are
Among the Injured at
Hospitals.

Birmingham, Ala.-Three persons
are known to have been killed, eight
men are in hospitals badly injured, a
total property damage exceeding $780,
coo has been caused, a large three
story building is a mass of ruins, a
hardware store, hotel, restaurant and
saloon destroyed, as the result Of fire
On Twentieth street.
Search is being made in the ruins
for bodies that may be buried in the
debris.
The three bodies of the only vic
Tins known to have persisted were dis
covered the morning after the fire.

two upper floors. Earl Irwin Of Knox
Vile. Tenn, ]. C. Murray and C.. M.
Murray, both of San Antonio. Tex, are
also at a hospital. painfully injured as
q result of burns and wounds received
escaping from the hotel. Four fire
men are in the hospital badly hurt.
The blaze occurred In the Burk &
Thomas building, a three-story struc-
ture. The lower floor was occupied
by the Robertson Hardware company
and the two upper floors by the Wind
sor hotel. The fire, originating in the
hardware store, caused an explosion
when it reached paints and oils, and
spread TO the White Palace saloon and
the Joe Wheeler restaurant adjoining.
The hotel, hardware store, saloon and
restaurant were all destroyed.
For three hours the fire was fought
%stubbornly by the firemen. The four
members seriously injured were hurt
when the explosion occurred.
The Windsor hotel was a small one
in the heart of the city, occupying one
OF the oldest buildings in Birmins-
ham. Fire wrecked the structure a
most completely and it is probable the
o'neI op'.les are in the debris, piled
nigh in the shell Of the building.

In the next harvest. The South, wealth

SELECTS TRADE COMMISSION
sives Are Named-Hltch in Con-
sress May Stop Action.

Washington.-President Wilson, five
months after the enactment Of the
federal trade commission law, sem to
the Senate for confirmation the names
OF the five members to constitute that
commission. Whether the nomina-
tons al be affirmed by March 4 was
regarded as problematical among SEN
ators in view of opposition by individ-
ual senators to some OF the men nom.
mated.
The three Democrats named by the
president are Joseph E. Davies, Mad
ison, Wis, named to serve seven years;
Edward N. Hurley, Chicago, for six
years. and William ]. Harris. Cedar
town, Ga, for five years. The other
nominees are Will H. Parry. Seattle.
Wash, a progressive republican,
named for four years, and George Rub
lee, Cornish, N. H., regarded as a pro-
gressive, for three years.
Consideration Of the nominations
will first be given by the Senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce. Chair
mar Newlands said he would call his
committee to consider the list. He
thought the committee would be able
to recommend confirmation of all of
the nominees within a few days.
Democratic and republican senators
both declared there would be no hasty
consideration of qualifications of the
men named. particularly in view OF the
great powers conferred through pro-
visions of the new law and also the
length Of time which the president
took before making up his mind As to
the personnel Of the commission. Pro
gressive republican senators have in.
formally discussed several Of the ap-
po~intees from time to time as their
names have been unofficially men,
toned. Democratic senators, among
them members of the interstate COM
merce committee. already have given
the matter much thought.

Democratic Party and Business.

MY Republican friends are looking
hopefully to 1916. but | think it a safe
bet that the Democratic party will be
continued in power" said Maurice
Heckel. manufacturer, Of Rochester,
N. Y.
The Republicans are trying to lay
some Of the blame for bad business
last fall on the Democratic party. but
that is not fair. and 1t will not work.
This country vas headed for pros
perity when the European var broke
out and gave the entire business
world an awful shock. There was a
sharp recession in American bust.
ness, but we are gradually recovering
from 1t. and by the spring prosperity
will be felt In all parts of the coun.
try, as 1t is now in the West.
I'VE will have a great deal Of pros
perity between now and 1916, and the
Republican calamity bowler will then
be making himself ridiculous If he
tries to howl for party purposes"
