Lieut. John Lambort Seriously
Cut in Fall at Blaze, Fourth
and Commerce Stroets
DENSE SMOKE HINDERS MEN
One fireman wn badly Injured nnd
damage cstlmaied at more than $100,
000 resulted from a three-alarm fire
nt 22-21 North Fourth street early
todar, '
Tlii blaze occurred In the cotton,
wool nnd waste warehouse of the Joslah
I.inton Co,, nt the southwest corner of
Fourth and Commerce strecta. A pe
destrian discovered it and sounded tho
nlarm nt f o'clock.
When the firemen arrived they found
the Interior of the six-story structure
a mass of flame. Water made slight
impression on the burning cotton nnd
bale nfter bale was tossed into the street
to be torn npart and extinguished.
John Lambert, lieutenant of Engine
Co. No. 4, Sixteenth and Sansom
streets, wns badly cut about the nrmls
when he fell through a window. Two
arteries wero cut nnd his condition is
critical, due to loss of blood. He Is
in the .TcfTcrson Hospital.
Work of the firemen was hindered by
thcTlfnsc clouds of smoke. Smoke hel
mets were of little avail, and for sev
eral hours the men braved death fiahtinc
the fire nnd saving comrades, mnny of
whom were overcome, nntl niter being
resuscitated nearby, returned to work.
The pile of woolen and cotton bales
was up above the second floor of the
building on the Commerce street side
nnd a special detail of firemen was sta
tioned there to prevent their ignition.
Trolley trnffio on Fourth nnd Arch
streets was virtually nt n standstill for
several hours this morning and caused
inconvenience to thousands of cnrly
raornlng workers.
No cars were operated on Fourth
street below Arch from 4 :30 o'clock
until 8:150 o'clock. It was necessary
to tufn the Fourth street cars back at
Arch street. Owing to the proximity
of the fire to the Arch street line the
cars were brought to a standstill, end
to end, for several blocks. Passengers
on Market street surface cars were
forced to exchange to tho subway at
Fifth street. v.
A member of the Linton firm plnces
the damage at about $175,000. This
estimate, he said, did not Include dam
age to the building caused by water or
weakening of floors, due to the excess
weight mndo when the wool and 'cotton
bales soaked up the water.
The stock of the Penu Auction House.
20 North Fourth street, valued at $100,
000. 'was damaged by water. It was
uninsured.
CENSURES PARK OFFICIALS

administration were censured for neg
ligence by Coroner Knight today, as the
result of an inquest in the drowning of

124 Dnwson street, in Gust hie Lake
July 1.
Park Ouard James testified that chil
dren are pcrmited to swim in the lake
and that a guard is assigned to watch
them, but that on the day of the drown
ing tho customary guard had a day
off and no relief man wns assigned.
Pedestrians discovered the body of the
child and summoned James to the scene.
Coroner Knight told Jnmes to convey
to those responsible in the matter his
order to close the lake to swimming
whenever there wns no guard nssigncd
to duty there. The jury rendered n
.verdict of accidental drowning.

morning in n raid made by Secret Serv
ice agents in the rear of 025 Kenilwortli

CLEAN LINEN DEMAND
MENACING SHIPPING
Strike of Crews Threatened Un-
less It Is Supplied With
Other Things Wanted
The Mnrinn Firemen's, Oilers' nnd
Wntertenders' Union, consisting of
more thnn 40,000 membcrs.have threat
ened to gcon strike and tie up ship
ping in this nnd other ports if their de
mands are not met by the United States
shipping board and the American As
sociation of Steamship Owners by Fri
day. July I).
Such a strike would tie up 200 ships
now in this port. Fifty are scheduled
to sail next week.
A contract wns drawn up nmong the
three organizations recently, calling (or
clean linen for the crews nt the begin
ning of each voyage, sixty cents over
time for each hour over the regulation
eight-hour shift nnd passes for the
union officials to enable them to inspect
the men's working conditions on board
ship. '
The contract wns to go into effect Mny
1. 1020. and wns to run until May 1.
1021. In the meantime the' union hnd
received no further word Worn the slllp
owners as to tho new regulations. The
passes were not forwarded, the over
time was not paid and suit was started
by the union against the shipping bonrd
in nn efTort to force payment. The
owners nlso neglected to supply the
crews with fresh linen.
Upcoming tired of wniting the union
called n meeting in New York last week
nnd decided to telegraph the United i
states snipping Doara nnd the American
Association of Steamship Owners that
it would consider the new contract null
and void nfter July 0, if nction was not
tni.en immediately by those organiza
tious to amend the sections pertaining to
overtime, clean linen nnd passes.
Tlie longshoremen nnd boss stevedores i
again endeavored to settle- tliclr differ-1
ences today in n meeting in the Bourse.
It wns learned that the stevedores who i
handlu deep-sen traffic ore willing to I
return to work on the old scale of
eighty cents an hour, with $1.20 over
time, provided the coastwise stevedores
nre granted their demnuds. These men
insist that tho government wage scale '
be paid. This is sixty-five cents nn .
hour, with $1 for overtime. This is the
point under discussion today. I
A meeting of the three organizations i
was held in New ork today, but no
agreement wns readied. Tho steamship
owners were willing to compromise by
granting the union passes for their
officials, but refused the other two re
quests. .
Tho United States shipping board,
however, refused to grant the union
anything and declared that they are
willing to call the new contract null
and void.

ELATED
Ry the Associated Press
San Francisco, July 7. Delegates to
tho Democratic 'National Convention,
their work done nnd the big gathering
ndjotlrncd In a last roar of cnthulasm
for the'party standard-bearers. 'Gov
ernor James M. Cox, of Ohio, and
Franklin D. Roosevelt, of New York,
were scrambling todny for train ac
commodations homeward.
Mr. Rdosevelt was due to leave dur
ing the day for Dayton, O., to consult
with' Governor Cox. where preliminary
plans for the campaign will be mapped
out, subject to amendment loter when
the pnrty machinery Is organized and
the ndvlsers selected.
The assistant secretory intends to re
sign from the Navy Department as soon
ns he, can clear up his desk, and will
spend ten days or so In Washington
for that, purpose before shaping his
plans for the campaign.
Dempcrntlc lenders were elated over
the spirit of harmony which marked the
last hours of the convention.
There hnd been good feeling and tol
erance shown throughout the lnne strug
gle to reach a presidential nomination.
It was said, but in the nomination of
Mr. Roosevelt by ncclnmatlnn. following
withdrawal of all other candidates, these
lenders saw evidence of differences burled
and a determination to work hard for
victory in the election from which they
drew great satisfaction.
It wns generally ngreed that the con
vention had been n gront success. If
noise nnd unflagging display of enthusi
asm were a gauge of that success, there
was ample ground for their view. Up
to the last tho delegates were ready
to cheer or to demonstrate nt every op
portunity. In n way, the scene yesterday when
Mr. Roosevelt was nominated rivaled
that of tho brenk-up early in the morn
ing of the McAdoo-Cox deadlock nnd
the nomination of Governor Cox. What
It lacked in the tense expectancy of the
last ballot, after the action of Attorney
General Palmer In releasing his dele
gates broke down the barrier that had
held the convention helpless through
thirty-eight ballots, the Rooevelt nom
ination made up in the swiftness with
which the decision wns reached.

Government
TURKISH PLEA REJECTED
Tl.v (fin Aisoclnted Press
Spa, Relglum, July 7. Decision wns
I reached hy members of the German
ministry nnd military officers nttnehed
to the German delegation here this
morning to recommend to Constantln
Fchrcnbnch, heau of the Rerlln delega
tion, that a plan of disarmament for
rlA.MMK. 1.. . .-.1 A. 11f...1 AnPA.
jvk utility ur irr?eiut.ti iu itiuru iti'n;-
"rsentatlves this afternoon. The confer
ence, therefore, will continue.
The conference met again nt 3:30
o'clock this afternoon. After n short
session between the principal delegates,
during which time the German state
ment regarding disarmament wns heard,
tho military experts ot Germany nnd
the allied countries were Introduced.
Premier Lloyft George, speaking for
the nllled governments nt Inst evening's
session, nrescnted what mar be called
nn ultimatum, but which Doctor
Simons, the German foreign minister,
termed "A very positive demand."
The most dramatic moment of last
evening's session was. when Premier
Llovd George said: "I do not believe
that the Germans Intend lo execute the
treaty."
Hie German forelen minister imme
diately Interrupted, saying : "You have
no right to make any such rcmarki We
are trying to execute the treaty.
Chancellor Fchrcnbnch. invoking the
name Vf the Creator, cried : "We nre
loyally trying to execute the treaty."
The German minister of defense, Hcrr
Gessler. exnlnininc the situation in
support of the contention of h
Gerinnn Government that it must nave
an nrmpil force of 200.000 men to-main-
tnln order in the republic, snld there
wni little difference whether the force
was labeled army or police, provided
the 'men were, under control of the
central government.
Ilerr Gessler insisted that the nllled
plnn for lfiO.OOO police broken up into
Mtnnll bodies under local control and
without co-ordination, was insufficient
to deal with the present situation in
Gcrmnuy, which, he said, resembled
xniiiewl at that existing after the thirty
years war. Armed bands in vnrious
parts of the country were pillaging nnd
killing; they were armed not only with
ordinary weapons, but with machine
guns, which they, knew how to use.
These bands, continued the minister,
