LIGHTING IIP STREET
Salem Dwelling Almost En
tirely Consumed by Ear
ly Morning Fire
Street lights were superfluous
over a large area of South Salem
early this morning when a large
frame dwelling near the corner
of Liberty and Oxford streets was
almost completely, destroyed by
a fire which concentrated in the
roof, the flames righting up all
of that part -of the city.
Firemen and police claimed the
fire wasn't staged as a climax to
their eminently successful annu
al ball, but nevertheless it at
tracted crowds of people who had
Just left the dance; some of them
found that there were deep mud
holes In that part of the city.
Ownership of the house, which
was vacant, could not be learned
at the time of the fire. It was re
ported that the building had re
cently been moved to that loca
tion from somewhere on High
street.
The firemen were handicapped
by lack of water pressure, but
the fire had gained such headway
before the alarm was turned In
that there was little that they
could do to save any portion of
the building. The walls remain
ed mostly intact, but the Inter
ior was badly damaged and the
roof burned off completely.

Accusing the American minor

much material good had come out
of the marine occupation of the
Island republic. Roads had been
built, sanitary conditions were ad
mirable and the nacionale garde
was well organised, he said.
But, Leger insisted, the price
paid was beyond its value. - He
maintained that the United
States was dominating. Instead of
helping Haiti and termed the
choice of Brigadier General John
H. Russell as American high com
missioner "most unfortunate."
Specifically, he accused General
Russell of having made a report
stating that the Haitian people
had "the mentality of a T-yesr-old
child.
Seeing no posilblllty of electing
a president by a plebiscite, be
cause the people were not used to
this method, he recommended
