35 BUILDINGS BURNED
IN $500, 900 FIRE
Details of Franklin, W. Va, Blaze
Just Learned Because of De-
stroyed Communication.
BY the Associated Press.

HARRISONBURG, Va, April 19.--
Explosion of a gasoline engine in the
office OF the Pendleton Times caused
fire which destroyed thirty-five
buildings in the heart of Franklin,
seat of Pendleton county, w. Va,
west of here, Thursday night, and en-
tailed property loss estimated at
$780, according to reports received
here yesterday.
The flames spread with great rapid
ity while volunteer firemen battled
under the handicap OF low water pres
sure. Raging for six hours. the fire
was not brought fully under control
until an early hour yesterday morn
ing after dynamiting had been en-
ployed to check its advance. In an
area of four blocks only the brick
Jail house remained today.
Destruction of the telephone and
telegraph facilities at Franklin cut
the little town off from communica-
tion with the rest of the world and
delayed receipt here OF reports of the
confiagration. Food was carried from
neighboring towns to the hungry
Franklin inhabitants, destruction OF To-
cal stores having eliminated the Gus
tomary source of supply
The newspaper office, where the fire
originated; the courthouse, two hotels
and the new and old buildings OF the
Farmers Bank were included in the
flames toll AS far as known here
no one was injured.

LEAGUE OF NATIONS
PROVOKES A ROW
Senate Committee Investigating Prop
uganda Has a Story SEES
sion Today.

Washington, D. G. - A row over the
League of Nations broke today at the
inquiry of the senate propaganda COM
mittee as Senator Reed, Democrat of
Missouri, one of the league irrecon-
cilables, sought to develop the attl-
tude on the question of the members
of the policy committee and jury of
award in the Box world peace move
ment.
There were several sharp passages
between Senator Reed and Senator
Caraway, Democrat, Arkansas, when
Miss Esther Everett Lape, member in
charge of the policy committee OF the
Box award insisted upon her right as
a witness to respond with more than
mere yes or mo" to questions
propounded by the Missouri senator.
Senator Reed opened this phase OF
the inquiry by asking Miss Lape for
an expression of her own attitude on
the league. She replied that she was
mot a supporter of the league in its
present form, but had become an ad-
herent of the League in her own
mind" Later she added that she
would be for the league with the res
ervations proposed in the senate.
The witness insisted, however, that
in organization CT the policy commit
tee and the jury of award, the league
question had not been considered in
any way.
''Did you know of any person on the
jury of award who was against the
League of Nations? asked Senator
Reed.
Il did not know whether they were
for or against the league, for, as |
have said, their attitude was not TAX
en- into account when they were Sc
lected."
When Senator Reed again pressed
his question, Senator Caraway inter
rupted to say that considering the in
telligence of the jury of award, Il
would naturally think they were in
terested in some kind Of league
Senator Reed retorted that this was
matter of opinion
Miss Lape several times appealed 10
Chairman Moses for permission to an
swer Senator Reeds question in her
own way and Senator Caraway pro-
tested that the committee was not au-
thorized to go into the subject.
Finally Senator Reed said he would
not press the question further, as he
thought Miss Lape's responses spoke
for themselves. The committee then
adjourned the hearing until next Tues
day, instructing Miss Lape to be on
hand with certain documents bearing
on communications between Mr.. Box
and herself and concerning selection
of the award.

Moscow-The body of Nicolai Len
inc lay last night in the villa at
Gorky where the great Bolshevik pre-
mier, stricken with a fatal illness,
spent most of the last year of his life.
Early this morning group of Com
munist party leaders ad members of
the all-Russia Soviet congress, passed
through Moscow's silent and snow
laden streets to the railway station
where thye boarded a train for the
little village. They were to return
late this afternoon as the official es-
cort of their chieftain's casket fol-
lowing it to the hall of Columns, in
the "house of unions" where it will
lie in state until Saturday.
Only Lenine's widow, his mother,
and some of his most intimate asso-
ciates in the Communist party, kept
the death watch in the Gorky village
throughout the night AS this little
group awaited the coming of the es-
cort, there were pouring into Moscow
a flood of cablegrams that showed that
the world mourned the dead chieftain
deeply The message came from or
carnations of workmen in many cities
of Europe, from the Communists of
all nations who venerated Lenine as
the high priest of their political and
economic faith and formal condol-
ences, from some of the governments
which have recognized the Soviet
federation.
Vast Russia herself from the far
flung village of Siberia to the towns
of the Crimea, is dazed with the pass
ing of her premier. Village Com
munist committees in distant districts
awoke this morning to receive the
news. Some of the peasants hate
Communism, but most Of them placed
their confidence in Lenine.
All night the telegraph instruments
clicked and the wireless buzzed as the
report went out and as the government
in Moscow gave it's directions to its
lieutenants in the provinces.
"Lenine is dead. Rally about his
name and memory, and carry on his
policy" This was the purport of
the messages.
1t is not yet known whether Leon
Trotsky, who is i'll, will be able to
attend the funeral. Leaders of the
Communist party have advised him of
the death of his famous comrade, and
they expect he will exert every eff
fort to be at the services if his
health permits.
In the meantime, the party differ
ences which have been bitterly aired
during the recent official conferences
and discussions, will be subordinated
After the dead leader is buried, the
all-Russia Soviet congress will form
ally decide who is to try to fill his
place.

to walk in front of the machine, and
in doing so slipped. Before he could
scramble out of the way, the saw had
torn the boot from his right foot, and
into the left. For moment, the men
said, it seemed that he would loose
both feet at the ankles, but that a
quick movement saved him.
Working at Twin Lakes.
The accident happened while he was
cutting ice on Twin Lakes for the
Haegli Ice company. DR.. Randall was
summoned and went to the scene
