22 GIRLS DEAD IN -NEW

Death Roll.

an antiquated four-story brick fitc
tory at 216-228 High street, Newark
N. J.

60 girls employed on one of the upper
floors. A panic ensued. Many of the
girls leaped from the windows. There
Is an engine house next door to the
factory, but before the firemen could
give any assistance at least 20 of the
girls had Jumped.
' The building in which the fire oc
curred is a four-story structure. It
is believed the blaze started on the
second floor, in the rear, among a
lot of .rubb'sh. Within a minute or
two after it was noticed it had made
its way into a lot of waste paper,
from' which it connected with the up
per floors. In all, about 200 persons
were employed in the building.

nesty to all concerned in the revolt,
higher pay and less work for the Bail
ors, and the adjustment of minor
grievances. The warships in the
hands of the mutineers included the
two dreadnaughts, MJnaa Oeraca and
Sao Paula, the Bahia, the iilo Grande
Sul and Diodo. They reentered the

in a public service is to be whipped
Into shape by Dan J. Malarkey, sena
tor from Multnomah county, and a
bill creating a public service commis
sion Is to be introduced in the ses
sion of the Oregon legislature, which
will convene at the state capital early
in January. The act will be one of
the first measures presented for the
consideration of the senate, and will
provide means for the regulation of
street car transportation, power, light,
water, telegraph, telephone and ' all
other corporations selling their goods

tended to divide the state Into dis
tricts. .

cure a law by initiative at tne next
