THE LARGEST BLAZE SINCE 1666
Nearly Twenty-Five Million
Losses to Pay.
in
London, Nov 20. One of the most
dl-aitrous llrcs In London's history
since the tfre.it lire of 1GC0 broke out
In a large of block buildings lylnn east
of Aldcrgato street and between .that
throroughfure and Red Cross street,
Just after 1 o'clock Friday afternoon.
The flames were fanned by a strong
wind and fed by highly inflamablo
stocks of Chribliuas goods and illnisy
dress materials of all descriptions
that tilled every floor of the six-story
building in the old street. Conse
quently the conflagration gained
headway with surprising rapidity and
was soon far bejond the possibility of
being checked by the few engines
which were early on the spot.
For four hours and a half the flames
had their own way.and it was only
after more than one hu dred engines
had worked an hour that the chief of
the lire brigade sent out the signal
that the fire was under control. Fifty
engines were playing upon the ruins:
wagons are hurrying up and tons of
water are pouring Into the fiery
debris.
Thousands of people arc trying to
penetrate the cordon maintained by
1,000 pollcemec, reinforcements for
whom were sent up when at 5 o'clock
an increase In the outbreak led Com
mander Wells to make requisition for
more engines upon the outlying sta
tions. The scene must occupy the tire bri
gade for several days, especially In
view of the grave danger of the col
lapse of the shells of building which
fall now and again with a loud report.
The latest advices indicate that
nearly 150 warehouses have been rle
itroyecT while the" lo'ss will probaply
exceed 5,000,000.
The historic church of St.
has been much damaged, the prlncl
pal damage being to the roof, to tjie
old windows, the baptismal font, and
to Milton's statue.
Ilamscl st reet was the scene of the
outbrakc of the fire, which was due to

Then from all the (ire stations, even

New York, Nov. 20. The World
has made the following statement.
Tho World Is able to say on ery
high authority that President Mc
Kinley will tacitly approve tho pro
gram of autonomy or home rule for

Second That the president will ex
press the hope that the Cubans will
not prolong the war for complete In
dependence, but will accept Instead a
form of autonomy.
Third That If the Cubans do not
heed his advice, Spain will bo given
more time without Interference fiom
the United States.
Fourth Tho president says that ho
ardently desires peace, both at home
and abroad, '"War scares" and bel

(and everything depends on "good

"Cuban sensations" Is therefore now
most desirable.
Fifth Spain has been Informed of
McKinlcy's hopes and plans, and as

A FATAL MISTAKE
Barkeeper Serves Ammonia
Instead of Seltzer Water.
NORTH DAKOTA FARMER DEAD.
His Family Accompanied the Re
mains to Salem.
A misplaced bottle containing
slightly diluted ammonh caused the
death of Charles Mclntyre, a prosper
ous farmer of llampton, Emmons
county, N. D., one week ago today.
The bereaved wife and children ar
rived In this city on tlie southbound
California overland. Friday evening,
accompanied by the remains and are
registered at the Salem hotel.
Mrs. Mclntyre whs seen at her hotel
this riiornlng by a Journal reporter
and from Iter the following facte wero
obtained relative to the sad alfulr.
For several yearaMr. Mclntyre was
engaged quite successfully in farming
near Hampton, North Dakota. This
fall ho concluded to dispose or his In
terests and remove with, his family to
Wulla Walla. On Thursday the Uth
Inst. Mr. Mclntyre and family weit
from Hampton to Uuiidau forty mile
distant where they intended to take
the train on tho following morning
for Walla Walla, having already pur
chased tickets for that place.
Thursday nigh t;the family remained
it the hotel. In tho morning before
breakfast Mr. Mclntyre chanced to
pass through tho bar room of tho ho
tel where ho met two intimate ac
quaintances who lnyitcd hltu ,Ur
have some liquid refreshments. Me
accepted the Invitation, and .seJtter
water was ordered The bar keeper
prepared the drinks which were soon
disposed of. Within a short time
thereafter, tho men were all taken
violently 111. Medical assistance was
promptly summoned and everything
that cou'd possibly be done was done
for the suffering men. Mr. Mciotfrc's
Illness assumed a much more serious
aspect than that of his accoclatcs. He
suffered intense pain almost con
stantly until death ocrured the Satur
day following. The men who drunk
with Mr. Mclntyre hae about recov recev
ered: An Investigation at the bar room
disclosed the fuct that the bar
keeper, who was an Intimate ac
quaintance of the.faiuily, had by irils
take served the men ammonia instead
of scluer water us called for.
It seems a quantity of ummonlujh&d
been kept in the bar room for house
cleaning purposes? wneri tho last work
had been completed there yet re
mained a considerable quantity of
the liquid wh'ch wus placed In some
empty seltzer water bottles- rnd
placed under the counter. By mis
take borne person, thinking son. e 'if
the seltzer water had been misplaced
put the bottles or. the shelf1 along
with the seltzer water. Thus- the
fatal mistake occurred und while it li
incerely deplored by tho bar-keeper
who wub an Intimate friend of the
family, yet It Is only an Instance of
gross carelessness.
Tho sudden and unexpected drath
of her husband caused Mrs. Mclntyre
to slightly alter her plans, und she
purchased tickets for Salem reaching
here last night.
The bUy was embalmed and pre
pared for burial and also shipped to
this city. The remains were Interred
at Lee Mission cemetery at 3 o'clock
this aftrrnoon. brief services being
conducted from the undertaking
establishment of Ollnger & Rlgdon
on Court street.
Besides the bereaved wife, Mr. Mc
lntyre, vho wus CO years of age, leaves
five children, four boy and one girl.
ranging from 9 to 22 years In ago.
Mrs. Mclntyre Is as yet undecided
as to whether she will locate perman
ently In Buleni or ooj,. The family
l:ae no relatives on tUo coast. L. D.
Small, who Uvea on a fill t' furui east
of the. aylmn, is an acquaintance of

ABOUT OREGON PEOPLE.
The Salem papers gave Hay Gilbert,
tho older son of A. N. Gilbert, who is
superintendent of the Oregon State
Prison, credit for capturing and dis
arming a dangerous Insane man at
the Asylum Cottage farm a few weeks
since, when us a matter of fact Ray
Gilbert was visiting Warren Gilbert,
who Is doing cartoon work on a
Denver paper, and had not been in
Oregon for a month. Ills father A.

connect his eon Kay who was so far
away with a position in a state in.
stltutlun adjolnlnghlsnwn, and when
ho has rather prided himself on not
employing his relatives in the service
of tho state. The Gilbert who
captured tho man at the asylum farm
Is a nephew of Andy Gilbert and se
cured his appointment through the
Influence of ono of the state officials
wnolsu friend of his, but not through
tho Influence of Supt. -Gilbert -of the
pen. Speaking of Warren Gilbert,
wo wore shown a cartoon this week
done by him that was about as good
us any produced in tho largo metrop
olitan pipers. It represented Senator
Chandler of New Hampshire standing
on tho railroad track to tho White
house in 1000, wildly waving u flag,
(free coinage,) at tho oncoming Re
publican train, and just ahead of him
there Is a brldgo that has been swept
away by a flood of publto sentiment.
Tho train will either be stopped by
tho danger signal now so lustily
wayed by Chandler or go through tho
chasm that Is open to rccclvo It.
Mr. Gilbert Is a gold standard Re
publican but was showing his friends
tho cartoon by bis son with a great
deal of Justifiable prldo. Young Gil
bert has probably got a better job
than guarding Insane at 830 a month.
If ho hasn't ho soon will have If tho
outcropplngs of a vein of artlstlo
ability is any indication.
Dr. T. J. Lcc, of Independence, was
buried Thursday, at that place with
one of tho largest funerals ever held in
tho connty. no received all tho
honors of tho Masonic order, of which
he was a member, as well us of tho
Odd Fellows order. Tho twoRoverends
Poling conducted tho religious ser
vlco In a very impressive manner.
There was a ycry lino floral display in
honor of tho dead, his casket being
literally burled in flowers. About
titccn hundred peoplo filled tho audi
torium, and tho funeral of Dr. Leo
was mado an occasion of rendering a
general public trlbuto to tho deceased.
Ho was not an old man and yet ho en
Joyed tho confidence and good will
that only comes to most men at the
ond of a long and favorable career.
Only when there has been ample
time for retirement, and when tho
clash of competition, tho frictions
and collisions engendered by activity,
push and enterprise wear away, are
all frco to do a man Justice
Dr. Lee had won this almost unl
vcisal acknowledgement of good will
while In his prime, which in itself is
highly complimentary to his charac
ter. Many broke down and sobbed
llko children as they looked on his
face In death. Tho poor and tho rich
alike mourn his death. In his pro
fessional career ho touched tho high
est mark of dovotion to humanity.
No call was too distant, no patient
too poor or unworthy for him to re
spond when needed. No weather was
too rough or road too bad for Dr. Lee
to venturo forth on errands of mercy,
Exposure to weather, lack of care
for himself, shortened the career of
this friend of tho suffering. What
higher prulso can bo given a man
limn to Bay that ho thought of him
self last ? What more need bo said In
his praise than that he served others
better than he served himself? Wo
can all be alive to our Interest, pro
mote what brings us pecuniary recom
pense, provide for our own household.
Tho tnun who does not this at least Is
no more than tho heathen. But tho
physician who goes to tho call of his
fellow man In alstressover long weary
roaap, in storm ana darkness, and
probably knows thut ho will novor get
u penny, Is near to the order of saint
hood among men hers on earth.

Royal Saves Doubly
Do not be deluded by the deceptive claim
of economy for the cheap baking powders.
Instead of saving, their use results in a waste
fulness of the most serious kind.
First, there is the loss of an occasional
baking. Flour, butter and eggs cost too
much to risk spoiling them with an inferior
baking powder. Royal's work is uniformly
perfect, and materials are never waited
where it is used.
In the second place, the adulterant
which are used to cheapen the cost of th
low-priced baking powders have a mot
harmful effect upon the health.
No prudent person will risk an at
tack of indigestion to save a few
cents on baking powder. Royal
Baking Powder is absolutely pure
and wholesome, and actually adds
anti-dyspeptic qualities to the
food.
Thus the use of the Royal is
doubly economical.
