Several women were injured, some seriously, in n fire which destroyed three apartment houses here and se--eral stores, a grocery, bakery and restaurant, today. A number of thrilling rescues were made by firemen in which two of the men of the department were serious ly hurt. The fire started in the basement of the Hayes Vnlley room ing house shortly before daybreak. The flames quickly spread to tho Valley apartment bouse adjoining and to the Kuss hotel nearby, in whicb. were scorres of sleeping fam ilies. Soon the three buildings were ablaze, several stores- on the ground uoor oi the apartment honses con taining inflammable materials ad ding to the rapid spread of the flames. When the firemen arrived men and women in night clothing were prepar ing to leap from the windows to the street Miss Mary Itae Fenner was awak ened by the smoke which filled her room on the third floor. She be came frenzied with fear, ran to the fire escape and leaped. She land ed among the telepgraph wires and nung suspended in mid-air. I Firemnn James Herliby of engine 34 went to her rescue. He climbed the telegraph pole and holding on with one hand, reached from his pre carious position and dragged the fainting woman from the wires. As he started to descend he slip ped and fell to tho ground. Both be nnd Miss Fenner were seriously hurt and were taken to the Central emergency hospital. In the meantime similarly heroic rescues were being made by firemen and police. The work of the firemen was impeded by tho general panic in the bolls and corridors of tho build ings and on the streets in front of the burning structures. Tho police aided in arousing the endnngored occupants of tho apart ments nnd in geting them to the street in safety. Aomng tho injured who wero tak en to the centrnl emergency hospitnl were Mrs. Annio Mclssncs; Mrs. Mn tildn Lorenzo, Mrs. Lolo Romem, Mrs. Gadnloupo Diaz nnd Fireman Thomas Gnllrigber.

Colo nel Theodore Roosevelt has abso lutely nothing to say to tho public regarding American politics. All efforts to get him to discuns the "insurgents," the tnriff, the Bal-linger-Pinchot controversy or tho Al bany "graft" investigation failed to-'A modern house for sale? Yes, sir; day as he, for the present, absolutely ye lmvc one wUb g roomg( bcMo do5. ignores all such topics. . . , Looking bronzed and as hard as a(ot8 and two ,arse ''"I0' 000 8crene- pnze-fighter, Roosevelt arrived on the steamer Dal, today and immedi ately encountered a group of news paper correspondents who came here on the Abbas, a specially char tered boat- He greeted them with characteris tic enthusiasm, all of the newspaper men being his personal friends. Tho colonel and Kormit are both in perfect health but Cunningham Loring, neller and MenrnB showed the effects of their recent escape from fevers. They are all richt but they clearly did not withstand the rigors of tho African son as well as the colonel. Colonel Roosevelt plans to spend eight days on tho trip from Khar toum to Cairo. He will sail for Na pies on April 1. jnrom maples, a number of sightseeing trips will bo made and then tho party will jour ney to Rome, Vienna nnd Bnda- Pcsth.

He then will go to Berlin, where he expects to arrive May 10, From there he will go direct to Lon don, nriving there May 10.
