Tbey may be tmong the unidentified dead or they may be in the ruins. Fifty were taken to hospitals. o« whom two may die. Among the in­ jured is Joseph E. Sloane, deputy fire chief, who was caugbt under the fall­ ing wail and buried in bricks and rub­ bish. He is badly hurt, but may re­ cover. The rush of the flames was so swift and threw such terror into the hud­ dled working givls on the top story that the body of one was found still seated on a charred stool beside the machine at which she had been busy when the first cry of "fire" filled her with fright. Horrible as must have been the scenes in the smoke of the crowded upper room, what befell outside in the bright sunlight was more horrible. The building was furiously inflam­ mable and the first gush of flames had cut off all possible escape by the stair­ ways. The elevators made one trip, but took down no passengers, and never went back. The only exit was by two narrow fire escapes, the lower platforms of. which were 25 feet from the street. Onto th€S6 oysrcrcwdsd and lanes, made dancing hot by the jets from lower windows, pressed forward a mob of women, blind with panic. A net had been spread beneath the windows and the girls hegrn to jump They poured out of the windows, upon the heads of those below them, and cascaded off the fire escape to the pavement, 60 feet below. Some of them stood in the windows, outlined against the flames, and Jumped clear; others sprang from the landings, and still others leaped from the steps where they stood. The air was full of them and they fell everywhere into the net, on the necks of firemen, and 15 of them on the hard stone slabs. When the awful rain ceased there were eight dead in the streets and the gutters ran red. Seven more were so badly crushed that they died in hos­ pitals. Fifty are still under surgical care.

Briton Lands Finishing Blow In Eleventh Round--Dane Is Game to Last, 8an Francisco.--Battling Nelson for the first time In his fighting career, was knocked out Saturday beyond all dis­ pute by Owen Moran, the sturdy lad from Birmingham, England, in the presence of an immense crowd of spectators. Moran ocked out Nelson In the eleventh round of a scheduled 20-round event, his victory being clean and leaving no room for argument as to his complete mastery over the one time champion. But he was com­ pelled to drop Nelson five times in this round, for despite the force of the Briton's punches on the point of the chin, the wonderful fighting spirit of the Dane ever was present One second after the final count had been tolled ofT and Referee Ben Selig above the din shouted "You are out, Moran wins." Nelson was on his feet with blood streaming from his mouth and nose, loudly importuning the referee to permit him to continue. Moran throughout, from the first tap of the gong, proved himself com plete master of the situation, and there was not one round of the eleven fought that could be credited to Nel­ son. The Dane always was the ag gressor. although the battle was scarcely two rounds old before Moran showed that he. too. could fl^ht at the Battler s own game. Round after round Moran would step back, side­ step and dance around the aggressive Nelson, all the while shooting In straight, forceful punches to the jaw and head and seldom receiving a j punch in return.

Before Decision Is Reached Mutinous Ships Disappear -- City of Rio Janeiro Resumes Normal Activities and Excitement Subsides. GRANT WANTS A BIG ARMY General Favors System of Conscrip­ tion to Raise Military Efficiency-- Sees Benefit to Nation. New York.--In order to bring this country up to the military standard of the European powers MaJ. Gen. Frederick D. Grant, commander of the department of the east, is in favor of inaugurating a system of con­ scription in the United States. He thinks the plan would not In­ crease the army expense more than 60 per cent., as there are sufficient, bar­ racks and equipment now on hand to I accommodate the new forces, and he ' believes the respect engendered for ! law would put an end to mob out* rages and lessen crime in America. "By increasing our army to '250,- , 000," General Grant said, "we could in a few years have among the peo­ ple engaged in peaceful and gainful occupations 1,000,000 men trained to the military service. The present au­ thorized strength of our army is 100,- | 000, but we have actually In the serv- j ice only about 85,000 men, because congress has refused to make the ap- ! propriations needed. I In the execution of his scheme. Gen- ! eral Grant would divide the country ! into militsiry districts and require ! each district to provide the enlarged ' army every year with a quota of re- ! cruits to be determined by the mill- , tary authorities, based upon popula- j tion. | "As I estimate it, such an Increase I in the size of the army would not in- | crease its cost 50 per cent. In round ' figures the present cost of the army is (123,000,000. The addition of 150,-' 000 men probably would not run the | cost up to more than C200.000.000," , he said. Nab Brains of Stock Frauds.

Rio Janeiro.--The mutiny among the sailors of the Brazilian navy was ended Friday. Congress, meeting in extraordinary session, voted to concede every de­ mand of the ultimatum presented by the sailors, including general amnes­ ty for the men who, after murdering as many of their superior officers as was necessary to place them in com­ plete control, trained the guns of the warships on the capital. What effect the outcome will have eventually on the discipline in the navy is a matter of some concern. The immediate effect is to give the sailors increased pay, shorter hours of service and less work, through the recruiting of additions to the crews, and to abolish corporal punishment in the fleet. During the debate in congress the mutinous vessels put to sea and dis­ appeared. Their destination is un­ known. Following the action of congress the city resumed its normal activities and the public excitement subsided. The dispatch, which was sent by the mui.neers by wireless to Presi­ dent Fonseca, offering to surrender, read as follows: "Repentant of the action we com­ mitted in our defense, and for the sake of order, justice and liberty, we lay down our arms, trusting that am­ nesty will be granted to us. We will remain obedient to your excel­ lency, in whom we have all confi­ dence." While the revolt lasted the people of the city were kept in a state of suspense, fearing that the mutineers would make good their threat to blow up the capitol unless their wishes were met. It is doubtful, however, that they would have taken this step in any event because of the likeli­ hood of complications with Great Britain. There Is no attempt to give a po litical color to the revolt, aa only petty navy officers participated with the sailors The Haltlar gunboat that went to I the bottom with ten generals on board, •worked greater havoc among the big | titles than the flare-backs on the v<«- I eels of the bigger naval powers. But j considering the ease with which flie I titles can be reproduced, it is a quos- | tion whether the destruction of a half-score seamen at a blow on the bat­ tleships Is not the more costly way to keeping the peace.

Decides Split Exists Among Commerce Commissioners Over Latitude to Be Allowed Roads. Washington. -- With the Intention of opposing the increase in freight rates Senator A. B. Cummins of Iowa has notified the interstate commerce commission that he will ap­ pear before them on behalf of the shippers. He will argue lack of necessity for the advances proposed from the show­ ing made in the hecrings by the rail­ roads and the consequent injustice such advances would be on the masses of the shippers and through them on the consumers. It develops that there is a decided split in tho commission over advisable restrictions to be placed on railroads. Chairman Martin A. Knapp of the com­ mission told the railway business as­ sociation in New York last Tuesday that he believed the railroads should be given "more rope" or greater lati­ tude in their operations If they were to extend and develop to meet the full needs of the country. Commissioner Clari^/sald: "The chairman was speaking for himself and did not represent other members of the commission when he gave ex­ pression to those views. No one mem­ ber is authorized to speak for the en­ tire commission." H. C. Barlow, head of the Chicago Traffic association, told the commission that the proposed railroad advances would fall on the consumer, as 85 per cent, of them were in class rates, with only 15 per cent, on commodities. Mr. Barlow was formerly a rate making expert in the employ of western roads. Chairman Knapp advanced the opin­ ion that a rate which added one cent to each pair of shoes shipped would not seriously affect the ultimate con­ sumer. Mr. Barlow claimed the price of the shoes would be advanced from five to ten per cent, to the consumer if the one cent freight increase went into ef­ fect. He said that every party who handled the shoes would add just a little more to the price, using the high­ er freight rates as an excuse. Compound."--Mrs. Jokn G.

Pinkham'a Ve fling competition, by purchasing a controlling interest in competing con­ cerns where that method provea necessary and by crushing out other concerns by underselling in their ter­ ritory. To accomplish the latter re­ sult the petition refers to the sys­ tematic rebating arrangement the trust for years maintained with the railroads. One of the most* sensational allega­ tions is that the late Henry O. Have- meyer, for many years head of the sugar combine, received $10,000,000 in common stock of the National Sugar Refining company of New Jersey as a gift at the time that corporation was formed to take into tbe combine four independent companies--the National Sugar Refining company, run by B. H. Howells, Son and Company; the New York Sugar Refining company of Long Island City, operated by Claus Bosher; the Mollen Havre Sugar Re­ fining company of Brooklyn, and the W. J. McCabe Sugar Refining com­ pany of Philadelphia. Up to 1900 these companies were independent and it is claimed the American com­ pany was determined to acquire them. Under a plan inaugurated by Have- meyer, John E. Parsons and James H. Post, the National company was or­ ganized and took over the four plants. When the new stock was ready for distribution, the petition sets forth. Post delivered to Havemeyer the en­ tire issue of 100,000 shares with a par value of $10,000,000. The petition asks that the Havemeyer executors, who are named among the defendants, ! be enjoined from voting this stock. It j is the government's contention that these shares were issued contrary to law and in violation of the company's charter. In general the petition sets up that the defendants "for some time past have been and are now engaged in an unlawful combination and conspiracy to restrain the trade and commerce between the several states and with i foreign countries in raw sugar, sugar beets, refined sugar, molasses, sirup* and other by-products of raw sugar and sugar beets, and to monopolize the same. Such unlawful combine tion and conspiracy Is the result of a series of wrongful acts extending over a period of many years. In par­ ticipating in these acts all of the de­ fendants have been actuated by wrongful intent to restrain interstate and foreign trade in raw and refined sugar and related articles and to mo­ nopolize parts thereof." The petition then prays for a per- IWO SRAND CKUOSES of about threo and one-half months' duration each.

Washington.--President Taft struck an effectual blow-in favor of public­ ity of the affairs of corporations when on Friday he approved the rules of the necretary of the treasury under which all returns made under the corpora­ tion tax law shall be available to the public. The corporation income tax law was framed for the purpose of insuring under heavy penalties including impris­ onment. an accurate yearly return of the operations of all corporations. Fol­ lowing this the publicity feature was added and now the rules under which' thi« publicity is to be insured have been framed by Secretary MacVeagb and approved by the president. These rules will insure publicity as widespread as any reasonable man can expect It Is the belief of the president that the regulations mark the final step toward securing the needed publicity o the affairs of corporations. The rules will go Into effect immediately. Two Hurt in Hotel Fire.
