Smoke filled the entire house and seven of the tenants were suffocated in their rooms. In Iioosevelt tiospital a victim of the fire, a woman who tried in vain to save her life by jumping from a third-story window, is ing fatally hurt. The dead were all removed to the West Thirty-seventh street station house. l.ist of niul Injured.

K«OII|)CH.

Volumes of smolce were rolling' from the front windows. Policeman Powers and the iircmen shouted to the people on the fire escapes not to jump. The firemen spread a net to catch any who should attempt it. The flames had not pained access to any of the front rooms, but the smoke was stifiiny. Standing on a dry poods box, Policeman Powers received the fear-stricken tenants and passed them down from the first lloor escape to other policemen. The escape of the Kondiller family was very narrow. Adolph, a pod 17. was the first to awaken, lie was nearly stitled with the smoke, but crawling to a window opened it and then uroused the rest of the family. The other families on the upper floors in the front portion of the building1 were uroused by the smoke or the shouts of people in the street below. Mrs. Jacob Smith rushed out on the fire escape on the first floor and jumped to the sidewalk. She escaped with a few slight bruises and her husband, who followed her, was equally fortunate. rinding the I)ewl.

Meantime engines had been flooding* the house with water, and in an hour the tore had been extinguished and the house cleared of smoke. Then Kire Chief Purroy and Capt. l-'arrcll made a tour of the rooms. The two Friedman children. George and Levi, were found lying dead, side by side, in their little bed, just as they had fallen asleep the night before. Not a hair of their heads had been singed and indeed none of the bodies had been touched by the flames. In a bedroom iu the Friediunn apartment were the bodies of Lena Mitchell, a cousin of Mrs. Friedman, and Annie Applebat, who boarded with the family. Neither of the girls had moved, apparently, aud their faces looked peace* ful enough.

Death had evidently come to them painlessly. Ou the floor above Jacob Killian was found lying doubled up alongside of his bed, as if he had made an effort to crawl to a window and had been overcome in the act.

Bis temperature was 100 degrees Fahrenheit and his pulse was 90 and weak. His breathing was difficult. He can take only a little nourishment and has become very weak. The oedema has increased materially."

I'ablto D«rply

The bulletins concerning the lung disease of the czar deeply affected the public. Boys are selling the notices in the streets. Grave crowds gather around the bulletin hoards all day. The Journal of St. Petersburg and other newspapers testify to their gratitude for foreign sympathy. They ascribe the manifestations of homage to the services of the czar as a peacemaker whose aversion to war was recognized universally.

An Burlier Bulletin.

ST. PETERSBURG,

Oct.

81.—The

fol

La.t night the spitting of blood which begun yesterday with severe coughing Increased. "Symptoms of congestion of the left lobe of the lungB have manifested themselves- HIH mujesty'B condition is one of danger."

The bulletin is signed as usual by the physicians who are in attendance upon the czar.

Communion i. Admlul.toretl.

YAI.TA, Oct. 81.—The czar received holy communion Monday. It wus administered by Father Ivan. The condition of the czar was much worse Tuesday. All his immediate relatives are here, including the queon of Greece, tho eldest daughter of Grand Duke Constnntine of Uussia. brother of the late iOmperor Alexander II.

Upon learning that death was near he asked that several friends who hud not been summoned, be called atoncoto his bedside.

Lovey had also managed to get out of bed and his body was found on the floor. Aged Mrs. Killian had died just as she slept aud a peaceful smile rested on the furrowed face. The tire on the second and third floors had spread through the central rooms, leaving the extreme front and rear rooms untouched. The cellar was gutted. The remains of the dead were promptly removed to the Thirty-sev-enfh street police station. The damage to the building is estimated at not more than $2100. The loss of the tenants, however, will swell the total damage to a much larger figure.

Oct. 81.—Two impor

tant and significant Japanese victories are reported by United Stntes Minister Denhy in a cablegram to the state department from Peking. He says that the Chinese forces have been defeated by Chin Lien Cheng and have retreated to Moukden he also reports that the Japanese have taken one of the Chinese forts at Port Arthur.

The Japanese minister is gratified at the roceipt of the Denby dispatch, which seems to foreshadow the curly capitulation of Port Arthur. The capture of this place, from a military and strategic standpoint, he says, can hardly bo overestimated. The capture of Port Arthur is a part of the Japanese movement upon Peking, and when effected will make the march to the Chinese capital a matter of more easy accomplishment.

The Japanese minister has received a report that upon the landing of the Japanese troops at Ta-len-Wai on Saturday last the Chinese war vessels at Port Arthur Immediately took flight and did not stop until they had arrived at Wei-hal-Wel, another strong point which, like Port Arthur, guards the entrance to the Gulf of Pechlli. The report states that this sudden departure of the Chinese vessels was made without the firing of a gun and at a time when the Japanese army under Marshal Oj'ama was still a number of miles distant.

Action of tho State*.

HKIU.IN. Got. 81.—The prohibition against the Iundiiur nf American cattle and American dressed meat, announced by a dearee of the Hamburg1 senate Saturday last, has been extended to every port ol Germany.

Interviews with otiicials of the interior department, the Prussian husbandry department aud trie German foreign ofiices would seem to show that the prohibition is of a preventive nature and the action of individual German states. The foreign ofiice otlU'inls, for Instance, say that the prohibition Is no affair of theirs, as the measures adopted are purely administrative and sanitary, and that they strictly belong to each German state. The empire, as such, these oflioials add, lias not taken any steps to prohibit the landing of American cattle or American meat 'J'he officials of the interior department say that the importation of cattle from America suffering from Texas fever has been clearly proved, and that the measures taken are purely of a preventive nature, such as each German state is entitled to exercise through its police authority within its own territory.

Surprint In Washington.

WASHINGTON, Oet. 81.—The announcement that the embargo placed upon American cattle by the senate of Hamburg has been extended to the length of an exclusion of American cattle aud dressed meat from every part, of Germany was received with surprise by department officials. That Texas fever was merely a pretense for enforcing retaliatory measures against the United States bccause of the discrimination against Oerm&n interests in the sugar schedule of the Wilson tariff law was the prevalent impression. The German ambassador, however, assured the secretary of state Monday that the measure of exclusion was inspired solely by sanitary reasons and had no political motive behind it.

Only rt Subterfuge

Secretary Morton, who has just returned to the city from a trip abroad, assured Secretary Gresham that the exportation of Texas fever iuto Germany by American cattle was altogether improbable, if not impossible. The secretary of agriculture expressed surprise at the exclusion of dressed meat, because it is all inspected by competent government oflicials iu this country before shipment. Texas fever, moreover, can be carried only by live cattle. The live cattle exported from this country are also inspected at tho ports of shipment to see that they are not diseased. •Lima to America OvercHtimateU.

The secretary thinks the damage to be inflicted upon American interests by this action is ffreatly overestimated, as our exports of meat to Germany are comparatively light. From his observations

011

his re

cent trip Secretary Morton is convinced that the exporting of live cattle cannot be made to pay as well as shipping dressed meats. The establishment of increased facilities for shipping meats in cold storage, he thinks, will greatly increase the American business.

Dr. I). K. Sainton, chief of the bureau of animal industry, "said the conveyance of Texas fever in dressed meat is impossible.

Royal Baking Powder is shown by actual chemical tests absolutely pure and 27 per cent, greater in strength than any other brand.

Many second-class brands of baking powder are urged upon consumers at the price of the high-cost, first-class Royal.

These powders, because of the inferior quality of their ingredients, cost much less than the Royal, besides being of 27 per cent, less strength. If they are forced upon you, see that you are charged a correspondingly lower price for them.

College I.iunl Stripped of Timber.

INDIANA

POMS, Ind., Oct. HI.—Several

years ago the trustees of Hutler university, situated at a suburb of this city, came into possession of 1,000 acres of finely timbered land in Monroe county and concluded that they would hold it. for increased value, especially as the timber in the state was becoming scarce and ra pidlv advancing in price.

A few days ago an agent was sent to look over the land and find if it could be readily turned into cash, but when he reached the neighborhood of the tract he found that all the valuable timber had been cut off and burned or sawed into lumber, and that several persons had "squatted" on it and had built log houses. The agent reported the facts and another was seut down to the county to have the squatters ousted, but the officers of the law positively refused to do anything. They said tho parties

011

the land could be ejected only

by force and at the risk of life and they would not undertake it at such a cost. It appears that the officers were aware that the timber was being stolen, but did not interfere, because they feared to do so. The university is now considering- what means to adopt to get*the land.

The senior Aleon witnessed the punishment, and he finally secured the complainant's release upon the promise of Gaylord 10 Aleon, Jr., that he would leave Indiana aud never return.
