Score of People Lose Lives

in Fire at Fort Wayne,
- ¥
Blaze Starts in Big Hotel at Early
Hour of Morning and Many of the
Guests, Cut Off from Escape,
Were Buried in Debris.
| "An unknown number of persons, es
timated at from fif;een to twenty-five,
lost their lives in a fire that destroy
‘ed the New Aveline hotel in Fort
JWayne, Ind., early Sunday morning.
The entire interior of the building
was left a smoldering heap of ruins
‘and how many dead are concealed by
the debris can only be conjectured.
l The hotel register was consumed by
the fire, and there are no accurate
'means of determining who is miss
' ing.
The fire was discovered at 3:30
o’clock a. m. in the elevator shaft
by Night Clerk Pipkins. He rushed
to the upper floors alarming the
guests until the flames, which had
spread with appalling rapidity, drove
him back. His effort, however, saved
many lives. The hotel was erected
half a century ago, and the woodwork
was as dry as tinder. It burned like
matchwcod, and within a few minutes
from the time the fire was discovered
the whole interior of the hotel was a
mass of flames that filled the corri
' dors and rooms with suffocating clouds
of smoke and laid fiery barriers
across all means of escape, save by
the windows,
The fire department rescued many
by means of ladders, but some, fren
zied by the onward rush of the flames,
leaped from high windows tc¢ the
paved street.
EXPECTS HIGHER FREIGHT RATE.
Railrcads Must Either Make Morel
Money or Cut Wages.
A Washington dispaten says: Itl
appears likely that the anticipated in-l
Jrease in railroad freight rates is
about to be made. A few days ago
a member of the interstate commerce
commission expressed the opinion that
_within three or four months, unless a
decided improvement in railway con
ditions should take place, it probably
would be necessary for the ’carriers
either to increase freight rates or
to reduce the wages of their employ
ees, Personally and officially the com
missioner deprecated the taking of
either horn of the dilemma by the
railroads, but he believed it to be in
evitable that one or the other would
be taken.
WILL PROBE EIGHT HOUR BILL,
Lawyers of the House Will Pass on
Important Measure.
Three lawyerg of the house were
authorized Saturday to make a final
examination of the eight hour bill now
pending before the house committee on
labor to decide on the constitutionality
of the bill.
The bill provides not only that all
work for government shall be done
under the eight hour system, but also
that the government shall be able to
purchase no materials and supplies
which have been produced by labor
that was required to put in more than
eight hours a day.
HOUSE PASSES RELIEF BILL.
Storm Sufferers to Get $250,000 from
the Government.
~ The house, Saturday, passed a res
olution introduced by Representative
Bowers of Mississippi appropriating
$250,000 for the relief of the sufferers
from the cyclone which occurred in
the states of Mississippi, Alabama and
Georgia on April 24.
MANY PEOPLE ARE DESTITUTE.
Governor Noel of Mississippi Explains
Situation to President.
Governor Noel of Mississippi wired
President Roosevelt that about 2,500
people at Hattiesburg and Purvis wili
need rations and tents for about thirty
days. There are about 150 wounded |-
in need of hospital attention at those
places.
“All the people of that section,”
says the governor, “wish federal and
Red Crosg relief. Sufferers on the
Mississippi river plantations are dis- |
ferently circumstanced, and ask only |
for tentage.”
