Strikers Are Obdurate
(By Associated pressl

Chicago, April Fl = Striking
railroad men in the Chicago dis
trict refused today to vote on the
question of returning to work.
All efforts of committee of the
strike leaders failed to obtain ac-
ton.
r. S. Murphy, one Of the three
strike leaders, arrested last week
during the appeal for men to re
turn to work, waved an American
flag and declared he would not
fight for American government.
He was greeted with cat calls and
misses. Union leaders declared
after the meeting that they were
helpless to order the men back to
work.

FIRE WIPES out
BLOCK AT IRWIN:
Flames Beyond Control, Gut Bus
iness Section, Entailing
Great Loss

Fire originating in a garage yes
terday afternoon started a fire which
ragged for hours and wrought damage
to the extent of more than $4,000,
wiping out an entire business block
and throwing the citizens of Irvine in
to a state of great excitement.
For time, owing to the high winds,
it was believed that the greater part
of the town would be destroyed and
there was a miscellaneous moving and
shifting of furniture etc. The flames,
which originated in the Estill Wallace
garage, were discovered at an early
period, but the presence of gasoline
and other infanmable material caused
the fire to get beyond control within
short time. 1t was soon discovered
that the Irvine fire-fghting apparatus
was inadequate to cope with the
/ situation and message was sent to
Ravenna. Assistance came but was
too late to save any portion of an en-
tire business block which was razed.
The flames gathered headway rapidly
and so smothered volunteer fireman
that their efforts to rescue number
of automobiles in the garage were
unvailing in the garage another, seven
of the machines were reduced to q
worthless mass and the flames speread
from one building to another.
The fire brings about great loss
to a number of merchants, some OF
whom had little if any insurance.
Within two hours after the fire started
the flames had licked up the entire
block and it was with difficulty that
they were prevented from ignitinG
nearby building. Much OF the property
destroyed was owned by State
Treasurer ]. A. Wallace, whose loss
alone is believed to be nearly $4,000.
1t was the most disasterous fire in
the history of the town, old residents
say and eliminated number Of inn
portant and well known buildings. The
exact loss has as yet not been !estimat=
ed, owing to some of the papers hav-
ing been burned, that dealt with in
surance.
Women assisted. the ,etoTkmen IN,
fighting the flames and while there
were a number OF narrow eseape55
from injury, no one was seriously
hurt. The visitors from Ravennii
worked like Trojans, however, the.
handicap was too great and one ahd
all were compelled to witness tho
flames spread from one building to
another 1t was only with the utrhos55
effort that the fire was confined to the
one side of the street, since every per-
son and bucket, together with yard
hose was brouth into play and the eff
fort united to save the row OF build
ings, the sides Of some becoming ter
ribly heated from the flames across
the street.

through the fire, we're: |. ..

advocating the nationwide adoption
of the idea as successfully applied in
California, Ohio and Maryland until
every one of the 1904 counties in the
nation have adopted the system and
regular shipments of good books are
being made from the central point in
the county TO the designated olitnoSts.

PLENTY OF REASONS
FOR NOT PAYING UP
Couldn't Come Through
with The Dough. Gave
Too Much to Others

Local merchants are not getting
the terms on the goods which they
buy that they formerly did. In
stead of getting from sixty to nine
ty days credit they now get thirty
or less. In order to continue to do
business successfully the merchants
will have to be less liberal liz ex-
tending credit: Help the merchants
by settling your accounts promptly.
One business man has voiced his
woes in the following manner:
"For the following reasons am
unable to send you the check you
sent for: L have been held up,
