O'Clock this morning. His death
followed a hunger strike of more
than seventy-three days. eclipsing
any in the annals of the medical
world.

seious for several days. did not re-
cover his faculties before he died.
Father Dominic. his private chap.
lain, and his brother. John, were
with him when the end came.
Father Dominic was at the prison
all night and did not leave until
several hours after MacSwiney
breathed his last.
John MacSwiney and the chap
lain, who had been waiting down
stairs. were told by prison officials
at $3.50 that they should go to the
mayors bedside as they thought
death was approaching. His BROTH
er asked for the privilege of COM
municating with other relatives. but
officials refused him the use of the
telephone.
After the prisoners death the
brother and the chaplain were not
permitted to leave until 6:3O. John
MacSwlney Immediately sent word

hotel with Mr.. and Mrs. O'Brien,

FORDS. Oct. 25:-At about 10
o'clock Saturday night a two-story
frame house owned by Abraham
Rosen on Ford avenue caught fire
as the result of a lamp exploding.
The flames gained much headway IN
a short time, and despite the quick
response of the fire company the
house was burned to the ground.
The building was a mass of flames
when the firemen reached the scene.
1t was seen that all efforts would be
useless to save any part of the
house, as the fire spread to every
part of the building in less than ten
minutes.
The damage is estimated at about
$4,000. The house was covered by
insurance but a stock of feed stored
in the building is said to be a total
loss, as well as some other goods
Rosen had stored i'm his house.
Rosen said that about half of his
loss was covered by insurance.
