evening and was completely destroy
ed.
The building was close to the ri
sidcnce Of Pah On, to several ware
houses and other structures AMI
within a stones throw OF tic ho.cl
premises. All of these might easily
been have destroyed (and most of
them undoubtedly would) had tn0t
been for two circumstances First
there was little wind. Second A.,
and most important, the prompt
and effective assistance Of Crowclf,.
National Guard company at Wal
mea. The company had turn
ed out specially to give an exhibi-
ton drill for General Evans, who
had arrived that morning. They
had just had the order to fall inn
when the cry of fire was heard. Tie
men rushed to the scene, arriving
too late to save the small cottage,
which burned like paper, but liter
alley smothcred the fire from the
Pah On residence, only few feet a.
way, and the neighboring ware
houses.
All the guests of the hotel, in
Guiding General Evans and party,
as well as many residents of Wal
mea turned out te see the blaze.
The Guardmen came out OF the
affair with their uniforms drcnchcd
and in many cases rscorchcd, but
they had saved about half of Wal
mea town. perhaps. General Evans
complimented them highly and said
that after their exploit it was not
necessary to see them drill. Men
who could arise to an emergency
so efficiently as they had done were
satisfactory to him as soldiers with
out further inspection.

 HUDSON TUBES

New York, Oct. 11.-About 300 con- .ductors, guards and gatemen em- ployed by the Hudson and Manhattan railroad, which operates the tubes un- der the Hudson river between Manhat- tan and railroad stations in Jersey City, Newark and Hoboken, N. J., de- cided early today to postpone until D. m. today a contemplated strike. The trouble arose because the company had dismissed 32 men for joining a union.
 w. c. Fisk, president of the com pany, said the tube trains would not be tied up even if the men went on strike as the motornen were under contract to continue at work and were satisfied.
 William D. Mahon, president of the Amalgamated Association of Street & Electric Railway Employees, has gone to the general headquarters of the as- sociation in Detroit to make arrange ments for the collection of strike ben- eft funds for the street railway strik- CTS here. Before leaving. MT. Mahon gave pledges to the strikers that $1OO,- 900 would be available here tomorrow for the payment of benefits.

The latter are holding out for . six months contract with an increase up to five cents a quart, an advance of one cent over the previous price.
 The company, it is understood, while willing to grant the increase in. price, is unwilling to make contracts for longer period than one month. As result the farmers are turning most of their milk into butter and cheese. About 10 cans of milk are being delivered daily at the Borden plant, it was said, as compared with about 200 cans daily under normal conditions.
