s FIGHT THE FIRE Firemen Conquer Very Stubborn Blaze. . MANY PEOPLE NEAR DEATH Flames Start in Clothing Store on First Street. SPREADS-TO. LODGING-HOUSE Firemen and Police Have Evidence That Conflagration Was Started by an Incendiary, and One Arrest Is Mado. Tho lives of a score of men, women and children, asleep In the New Era House, Kwond and T&vlor streets, were imperiled at 11:50 last night by fire that origmatea in tho roar of a clothing store run by A Gross. So sudden was the burst of Jlame which shot up and out in all di rt Uoas that it is regarded as mpst for tunate that no one was even injured. Firemen and policemen assisted the wom en and children from the burning struc ture tx places of safety below. Fire Chief Campbell, policemen and citl sens, who were quickly on the scene, de clare that the lire is of very suspicious origin, and do not hesitate to state that they believe it to have been set by an inrendiary. Today a searching investiga tion will be made. Frrgeant of Police Slover, who was near when the fire broke out, say a man run ning or walking very hurriedly from the place and followed him to Third and Oak Ftrwts. He was muttering to himself all the way along and acted very sus piciously. "It's nothing but smoke, noth ing but smoke," he was mumbling. At Third and Oak he stopped to read a pa prr he carried and was placed under ar rest. At the Central Station the stranger gave the name of J. E. Nellson. When searched he was found to possess a pair of brass knuckles. He was formerly connected ngth the Fire Department, and the police think those facts make a rather strong circumstance, in view of the fire. He was b--M)ked oa a charge of drunkenness and locked up for the night. This morning he will be compelled to answer questions from Chief of Police Hunt and special detectives. When the firemen arrived on the scene, in response to an alarm from box 51, they saw flames shooting out from a win dow on the Taylor-street side of the store, to the rear. A chemical stream was turned on and the Are was quickly smoth red there. Lodgers Have Narrow Escape. Chief Campbell .glanced about and thought it was all over, but just as the firemen were uncoupling the hose from the water-mains and preparing to reel up the chemical linos, there was a strong blast and Instantly the whole building was in flames. The Are this time leaped to the scmnd story, enveloping the rooming house. It was then that the lodgers had a hard struggle to keep from being burned, but by quick work on tho part cf the police, led by Sergeant Hogeboom, all were saved. Up to the time of the second burst of flames no water had been turned on at uL but the lines were ready. A line 1000 feet long was laid in from the flreboat George II. Williams,, arid when this was started, the building was quickly flooded. The Are burned with a stubbornness sel dom witnessed, but the constant drenching from the large hose conquered, and at 02 .30 the fire was out. lt looks very, very bad, indeed." said Chief Campbell. "It will be fully investi gated tomorrow." Special Policeman Smith, who discov ered the Are and turned in the alarm, went to notify A. Gross, proprietor of the ciothing store, but was unable to awaken any one at the house, it was said, and he was not at the scene of the Are at all last r.igkt. He could not be located. Neither were any of his clerks there. It was slated that the store was closed, at about the usual hour S o'clock-j-last night. The loss at the store could not be learned, but It will be heavy, as much of the goods were destroyed. There has been a spe cial sale in progress there for some time. Restaurant Is Damaged. Tho Delmonlco Restaurant, next liloor to the clothing store, run by F. Donovan, suffered by water, but he was unable to state the amount of damage. He carried some insurance, he stated. Jerry Delury, operating a candy and cigar store next to the restaurant to the south, estimated his loss at $1000, fully covered, by Insurance. A photograph gallery, operated by W. 32. Townsend, on the second floor, was completely destroyed. The damage is es timated at $SQ0. Ho carried but a small amount of insurance. Policeman Price chanced to be near wfcen tho Are broke out. He went above and awakened tho sleepers. Directly above the store where the flames burst out slept Mr. and Mrs. W. Slttle and their two little children. In an adjoining room. right above tho Are. was J. F. Steele. He had not yet gone to sleep. He stated that he smclled kerosene when the Aames started. Tho landlady, Mrs. Hanavan, and her children were also asleep. All of the lodgers gathered what they could carry and took it to safe places. There are 17 rooms In the house, and nearly all were Ailed, some being occupied by families. After the Are was over, an insurance detective and several policemen and Are men made a close search of the clothing store and discovered in the rear, right against the wall, a small box, which had evidently been Ailed with ashes. The ashes were still hot, fcfter being drenched with water. It is believed by some of the offl cers tho Are started from that place. All agreed that oil helped to feed the Aames, nowever. SOUGH EIDERS TO BE GUARD They Will Have Place of Honor in the Inaugural Parade. WASHINGTON. Dec 12. President Roosevelt s guard of honor in the Inau gural parade on the 4th of next March will be a squadron of picked men from his old regiment of Rough Riders the First United States Volunteer Cavalry. colonel A. G. Brodie, Governor pf Arl zona, and Major W. H. Llewellyn, for merly of the Rough Riders, took lunch eon with the President today, and ar rangements for the guard of honor were made at that time.

TELEGRAPH POISES MUST GO Supreme Court Holds Railroad Can Exclude Line From Its Property. WASHINGTON, Dec. 12. The Supreme Court of the United States today decided the case of the Western Union Telegraph Company vs. the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, Involving the right of the rail road company to put the telegraph com pany's poles from ita rlght of way, in fa vor of the railroad company. The opinion was handed down by Justice McKenna. The court held that the Congressional act of 1SGS, which controlled In the case, does not grant eminent domain to telegraph companies over the private property of railroad companies. Tho Supreme Court also decided another case of the Western Union Telegraph Company vs.' the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, invoning the right of the tele graph company to condemn a part of the railroad's right of way In Western Penn sylvania and appropriate it for its lines, in opposition to the telegraph company's contentions. The case Involving the right of the rail way company to remove the telegraph company's poles originated In New Jersey. Justice McKenna said the telegraph com pany contends that the necessary Implica tion from the provisions of the act of 1S56 permitting telegraph companies to use post roads Is that telegraph companies may appropriate for their poles and lines a part of the rights of way of railroads in Invlctum upon paying Ju?t compensa tion. In other words, that the act Invests the telegraph companies with the right of eminent domain. The railroad company, he said, asserted that the act gives the consent of the Gov ernment to telegraph companies to con struct the lines through its public domain and over and along Its mHItary and post roads, which are not the property of pri vate corporations, and across navigable streams and waters, but gives no right to a private property and Is an exercise by Congress of the National power over in terstate commerce to secure telegraph companies from "hostile state legislation or contracts violative of an announced public policy." Responding to contentions on the part of the counsel for the telegraph company that railroads are not essentially different from other highways. Justice McKenna said: "This argument would seem to make a railroad right of way public property. To that extreme we cannot go. The right of waj of a railroad I? property devoted to public use, and has often been called a highway and as such Is subject to a cer tain extent to state and Federal control, but it has already been recognized that a railroad right of way is so far private property as to be entitled to that provision of the Constitution which forbids its tak ing, except under the power of eminent domain and upon payment of compensa tion. "It follows from these views that tho act of 18G6 doe? not grant the right to tele graph companies to enter upon and oc cupy the rights of -wfey of railroad com panies, except with the consent of the lat ter, or grant eminent domain. Nor does the statute of New Jersey make those rights of way public property so as to subject them to such occupation under the provisions of the act of 18C6. It is ad mitted that the statutes of New Jersey do not confer the right of eminent domain upon telegraph companies." The contention of the telegraph company In the second case, as in the case Involv ing the right of the railroad to remove the poles of the telegraph company, was that the telegraph company has the right to maintain its lines of tetegraph over and along the lines of the railroad company upon making compensation to the railroad company for the use so appropriated, so long as the maintenance of Its telegraph lines does not materially Interfere with the ordinary travel of such roads, and that the right can be asserted by pro ceedings in eminent domain, but this was denied; Loses His Reason. Fully persuaded that he was In peril. and that he was swimming for his life on the broad expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, William Aspaugh, 79 years old, and residing at 202 Jefferson street, be gan to build a lifeboat out of the bed clothes and furniture of his room last night. But he made such a noise that the neighbors came to see what was the matter ana sent lor tne ponce, ser geant Slover made an Investigation, and took Aspaugh to the police station, where he was locked up until his demented con dition -can be inquired into.

She had rested after walking upstairs and sat In a chair, but on going to her room Imme diately afterward remembered she had left her purse in the chair at the top of the stairway.

' '" , ' FANS TO PAY MORE Pacific Coast League Meeting Will Raise Admissions. STILL SIX CLUBS 'IN 1905 Spokane Wants Tacoma's Place, but It Is Too Far From Portland and Seattle Better Northern Schedule Next Year. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 12. (Special.) President Bert will call a meeting of the Pacific Coast Baseball League at his office next Thursday, and none of the clubs will be without representatives. Henry Harris and Parke Wilson will watch San Fran cisco's Interests: Cal Ewlng and Pete Loh- man, Oakland's; James Agnew and Lou Cohen, Seattle's; James Morley, Los An geles'; Mike Fisher and Dave Evans, Ta coma's, and William McCreedle and Walter McCreedle, Porland's. About the Arst thing that, will be con sidered will be the formation of the league It is an open secret that Spokane is after Tacoma's place, and- is ready to furnish substantial bonds that It will carry a team through a season. Were Spokane 200 miles nearer Seattle and Port land It might have a chance of supplant ing Tacoma. With a championship team, the latter place only lent ordinary support, but it may do better next year when the new grounds are built. No change will be made from a six-club league this year. The schedule Is not go ing to be quickly disposed of. There was one bad feature to this season's schedule which will be remedied next year If It can be. Tacoma and Seattle played together over a month in the north and this un doubtedly worked to the detriment of the game. The fans got very tired of seeing the same faces and attendance suffered in consequence More Even Divisions. The old question of" the division of the gate receipts will be revived. The north em clubs will Aght to have the visiting club share equally with the home. As Is well known, the home club takes 65 per cent of the gate and the visiting 35. This is to the advantage of San Francisco and Los Angeles, which furnish the largest crowds, but just whether these clubs will be willing to "split the purse" remains to be seen. It is possible the clubs may effect some sort, of a compromise and di vide the gate 55 and 45 per cont There is one thing the Pacific Coast League Is certain to do and this Is to raise the price of admission to the games. There will be no more 25-cent' baseball. If the league is to make money and pay high salaries. It must exact more money from its patrons. The players earn about as much money here as they do in the big leagues, where it costs ?1 to occupy a de sirable seat. When President Bert was East It was proposed to him that his league Join a combine composed of the Eastern, South era, American Association and Western. As present arrangements are unsatisfac tory, some change will be made. Bert will throw the entire question before the delegates for discussion The old ofilcors will be elected.
