FIRE AT RICHMOND.

The Richmond Livery barn, owned
by Anthony Steil. was a complete
loss by fire, last Friday night. The
origin is unknown. The fire was dis
covered shortly after ten O'Clock
when one of the drivers returned from
a trip. The building was full OF
smoke and as he opened the door
leading into the barn, he was met by
flames issuing from the hayloft. The
driver sent in the alarm, cut the
horses loose and with the help that
soon arrived managed to save some
of the livery equipment. The fire had
gained such headwav that the fire de-
partment was unable to do anything
but protect the adjoining buildings
The loss is estimated at $4,000 covered
by insurance.

Committee Probing Promotion
of Big Organization Likely
To Ask Whole New Deal

In all probability Detroit will have
new athletic club. but II is thought
quite likely II will have another
name than that OF the Tippecanoe
club. That is the opinion OF large
number OF members OF the club that
is now being formed II is believed
that the publicity already given TO
the venture Is OF such a character rs
will make 1t necessary To have a
new deal
II is declared that 900 prospec-
tive members have already submit
ted one-fourth OF their initiation
fees, or total OF about $50, 900. and
this. II is said. has all been used up
In commissions and expenses by the
men promoting the club Efforts on
the part Of the many members OF
the club to get financial statement
have failed, they complain. and as a
result, az a meeting recently a com
nittee WAS appointed TO make n
thoro study OF the affairs of tha-elub
and report at a meeting that will
BE- held in Hotel Statler next We'd
nesday evening.
This committee, composed Of "a
prospective> members. held an In
formal meeting Wednesday and
heard suggestions from the members
as 10 the Test way TO proceed. One
suggestion that appeared 10 be pop
ular was that n new organization be
perfected and that the name OF the
club be changed. IL was said that
this step would be taken only in the
event that a satisfactory adjustment
OF the affairs could not be obtained
from those who are now administer
ing the business OF the club.

posed of the following: Fred f.
