DORR|S LEHMAN SCENE IF r IRE THIS \. M.

Several thousand dollars worth of new furniture was destroyed by fire originating spontaneously in the repair department on the fourth floor of the Doris Heyman Furniture company early this (Thursday) morning. Spread ing quickly among crates, lumber and other inf1ammable material in the shop, the flames presented an inferno to the firemen who fought at close quarters to suppress them
 c. D. Doris stated after the con- flagration that he estimated the damage from fire and water at two or three thousand dollars. although it will be necessary for closer inspection of the burned area to get at the exact amount. Part of two carlot shipments of fur niture. which had just been stored near the repair shop, was included in the loss.
 The fire was seen by a passerby at 12:40 and reported to the fire depart ment by telephone. When the fire fighters arrived the heat was cracking window panes on the fourth floor of the building and the flames could be seen from the street, rapidly spreading to piles of furniture nearby.
 A hose line was carried through a window on the third floor and taken up the stairway to the immediate vii cinity of the fire when a stream of water was directed from the street level failed to be sufficient to do the work.
 The fireproof construction of the building saved it from probable de- struction. Gas masks were employed by the firemen in some of the close work which brought them into quarters where the smoke was too dense to per init free working.
 The firefighters were handicapped by lack of light when the electric light globes near the scene of action were broken in the excitement of fast work The use of electric torches was handicapped by the high piles of furniture which compelled the firemen to make their way through winding passages in order to reach position where the hose could be brought into play
 Despite the lateness of the hour. a crowd of several hundred spectators gathered in quick time after the fire department had arrived. The sup pressing of the fire occupied about half an hour after which a careful eX- animation for smoldering embers. which might cause further trouble. was made.

 HELD BLAMEFUL FOR

 WASHINGTON, July 27.-Appoint- ment of a special commission to bring about immediately free and open confi- dence between employees and employers in the steel industry was suggested to President Wilson today by the com mission of the Interchurch World movement which investigated the steel strike of last summer.
 "Unless vital changes are brought to pass, a renewal of the conflict seems inevitable" said the commissions let ter.
 The suggestion is made that the pro- posed special commission go forward on the precedent of the presidential commission for the bituminous coal in dustry and the anthracite commission.
 Accompanying the commissions let ter was a copy of it's report.
 pr. D. A. Polling, secretary of the Investigating committee, declares that the report constitutes an indictment of the labor policy of the United States Steel corporation.
 There can be no doubt" pr. Polling said, 'that the report will be regarded by the public as strongly favoring the laboring mans side" He said the commissions work was "embarrassed'' by the rifling of it's files, ''by under cover methods of every sort
 summary or the findings Of the commission showed the fundamental grievances to be:
 Excessive hours; the boss system no right to organize or to representa- tion."
 Remedies desired were: Shorter day and week with living wage: representation and conference; {; an end to the boss system;' right to unionize and substitution of industrial democracy for industrial autocracy." "All the conditions that caused the steel strike continue to exist was the conclusion of the commission. We feel that unless changed another strike must come

MARION, O., July 27-Subjects re- lating to management of the Repub- hcan campaign were discussed today by Senator Harding in conference with party leaders. One called was John T. Adams of Iowa, vice chairman of the national committee, who told the norn- inee his acceptance speech had made a great hit in the west. He predicted that the Republican ticket would sweep through"
 Scott Bone, national committee pub licity director, also talked with the sen ator relative to the advertising cam paign. Another caller was George B. Lockwood. editor of the National Re publican of Washington. who told the senator a canvass of sentiment indi- cated he would be. elected "over- whelmingly."
 Support from the national Roosevelt league was promised today in letter from it's president, Bella Tokali, who wrote:
 Permit me, on behalf of the officers and members of the National Roose- welt league, to compliment you on your common sense address accepting the nomination. The salient points in that speech thoroughly appeal to all 100 per cent Americans. Those citizens who do not measure up to the Americanism We are advocating. count very little on election day.

pROF|TEER|NG ON B|TUMINOUS COAL
 WILL BE STOPPED
[Republlcan A. p. Leased wireI

NEW YORK, July 27.-Appointm by Attorney General Palmer today of a committee to decide on a fair mar gin of profit for producers and dealers in bituminous coal, beyond which pros cautions under the Lever act will fol- low, is expected to "have a deterrent effect on those who are now taking excessive profits" This view was ex- pressed in a joint statement tonight by Mir Palmer and Charles s. Allen, sec retary of the wholesale coal trade as- sCciation of New York.
 Attorney General Palmer the statement said, has asked this com mittee to consider the feasibility of naming a fair margin of profit for pro- ducers and dealers in bituminous coal. It is not the intention of the depart ment to fix prices. It is expected the committee will advise the attorney general on this matter in a few days and it is the purpose of Attorney Gen eraI Palmer to instruct the United States district attorneys and his spe- cial representative that a producer or dealer selling coal at or under a figure presumed to be within the spirit and letter of the Lever law and that as 10 those who exceed the margins such action will call for an investigation.
 1t is felt by Attorney General Palmer and concurred in by the committed that this action will have deterrent effect upon those who are now taking excessive profits
 The Lever law against profiteerins applies to export as well as domestic coal MT Allen said that the com mittee's price undoubtedly will be lower than the present market price of soft coal The committee hoped. he added. that the effect will be to secure larger percentage Of deliveries un- der contracts now held by the large consumers and a consequent reduction in the amount of soft coal.
