An exploding lamp spread oil over the
floor of the frame residence of William
H. Clay, 329 South Third avenue, about
8 o'clock last evening and before those
in the house could eXtinsuish the
flames, the entire house was enveloped.
An alarm telephoned in and another
sent in from a box, called out enough
apparatus to have handled a much
larger fire. When the department ar
rived, the flames were mounting sky

appeared that conflagration was in

was sent out that a baby had been

had a ticket before her but on cross
examination the witness said that she
could not say whether it was ballot

a cross on her ballot opposite the name
of Judge Baughn. He offered no sug-

President Expected to Act.

ssSosoSUe @ARSSSS0 W H(N
WASHINGTON. March 16.-Presi-
dent Wilson is expected to make his
first move to prevent the threatened
railroad strike after todays cabinet
meeting.
The president had cancelled the
regular cabinet meeting but when he
received reports from the New York
conference he summoned the mem
bers of the cabinet for a meeting this
afternoon
The general impression prevails
that the president will first appeal
to both sides not to plunge the coun-
try into a strike at this critical juno
ture of International affairs. although
what more the president inends to do
is not openly disclosed.
1t is known that some of his ad-
visors hold the view that he has full
constitutional authority to take over
the railroads and draft officials and
men to operate them on the ground
of national emergency. Some officials
pointed out that while the president
favored the contentious of the men
last fall when the matter was merely
controversy between the men and
the railroads. the present situation
concerns the government vitally anC
the president regards the interests Oi
the nation as overshadowing all else
Part of the cabinet is said to favor
strike, arguing that it Will be sue

Both sides held separate confer
ences but no move was made to pre-
vent the strike To meet the sitnatiol
