a financial depression, and one which
Is worthy of deep consideration. His
letter to President Roosevelt follows:
Mr. Anslsy’s Suggestion.
To the President: In this day of un
natural financial conditions, "the har
vest Indeed Is plenty, but the laborers
are few,” because a few bankers or
financiers In New York, who are not
producers, decreed a year ago that gen
eral business conditions were too pros
perous and should be curbed. Acting
on this Idea, these financiers have not
only refused to lend to the South and
West a part of tho money they have
made by manipulating the prices of
their crops and handling the|r Insur
ance money, but actually refuse to
allow these two sections to withdraw
their own money from their banks, to
enable them to market their crops,
which Is the only way that gold can
be forced from the rest of the world.
By withholding these balances, and the
loans that these sections are entitled
to. by reason of these balances, these
financiers are thereby depressing the
jrices of our products and are forcing
lundreds of our manufacturers, with
orders for months ahead, to either sus
pend operations or else run on short
hours, which Is forcing thousands of
willing labored, out of employment and
thus causing The very people who pro
duce the food and clothing of the world,
figuratively speaking, to go hungry and
naked.

Baptist Ministers Discuss

“If we preachers make asses of our
selves the public should be told." said
Dr. John D. Jordan, pastor of Jack-
son Hill Baptist church and presiding
officer of the Atlanta Baptist ministers’
meeting, at the Monday morning ses
sion of the ministers meeting, when
the question of _ excluding reporters
from the deliberations arose for the
third or fourth time this year.
’Some of the brethren have com
plained that they came up here end
said ridlculbus things,” continued Dr.
Jordan, “and the reporters quoted
them. Well, whst If they did? If we
make asses of ourselves, as some say,
there Is nothing wrong In Its being
printed. Really I think the presence
of representatives of the press tends to
curls the utterance* of the ministers,
which Is a good thing. However, It
we have any Important business of a
nature that requires secrecy for a while

A motion to exclude ths report era

admitted that the decision was sub

At this time a car was going north,
and the car which caused, the lad's
death was coming south after having

to the boy to avoid the northbound

Dr. Wilfred M. Barton, professor of
gynecology at Georgetown University
and for fifteen years a practicing phy

to his medical experience, stating that
for eight or ten years he had devoted
special attention to the subject of neq,

The body of the question had to do
with the narration of the woman com

Brown, her progress from delight to

deception: her erratic behavior, and
coming to Washington: description of

IN GOTHAM FIRE
New \y>rk, Nov. 26.—Thirteen per
sons are dead and seven Injured In a
fire that swept through a five-story
tenement today.
The fire started In tho liquor store on
the ground floor, shot through the air
shaft and stairways and trapped all
tho famines In the upper part of the
building. Despite all the firemen could
do, they were Unable to reach the vic
tims who were apparently overcome by
smoke and burned to death.
The persons who were killed In the
fire were members of families who liv
ed on the fourth nnd fifth Hoors. Tfle
nnrrow stairways, filled with smoke,
prevented them going down with the
speed necessary, and, crowded together,
■non. women ami children sank to the
floor, choked with smoke and were un
conscious when the flames reached
them.
The combustible nnture of the ma
terial In the basement of the liquor es
tablishment made the flames spread
with triplo rapidity and by the time
the firemen arrived every floor was a
blase.
A call wss sent for ambulances. The
firemen climbed to the roofs of ad
joining buildings from which the ten
ants hsd been driven by fear of the
blaze and from these vantage points
thsy poured streams of water into ths
tenements.
During the fire the tenants In their
frenzy fired off revolvers to awaken
those who were asleep In the building.
Vltto Vortlto was among the first to
escape down the stairway. He remem
bered when he reached the street that
he had left his family asleep on the
fourth floor. He made tits way up the
fire escape, broke u pane of glass In a
window opening Into his apartment*. P
climbed In through the smoke and
flames and dragged out one of his boys
who was unconscious.
Ths thfrtsen bodies were found In
one room on the top floor of the ru,--
story house. They were huddled to
gether near a window overlooking the
fire escape, and had evidently fallen In
their attempts to reach the ladders and
climb to safety.
The bodies lay heaped one uppn the
other, and were all so badly burned
tHey could scsrcsly be recognized.
When the bodies were brought down, It
was found that seven were children,
nnd the other six wer# adults. All
the dead are Italians.
