Wanamaker's Great Establishment Attacked Several Times, But the Fire Depart meat Successfully Fought the Flames Back Each Time The Loss Runs Into Millions of Dollars. Special to Uvjnrnto IIcBALti. Philadelphia, Jan. 20, 10 a. m. The blggeet Art that has ever visited this city started this moraine, at about nlno o'clock, in tbe-bloek bound by 18th, Juniper, Market and Filbert streets. The olty is threatened by a conflagration and treat alarm prevails. The Are companies from all quarters of the city were called out by repeated alarms and people Hooked by thousands to the scene. The entlro day and night police forces have alto been called out to form safe guards. Tho scene of the fire is in the very heart of the city's greatest and moat important business circles. The flames were first discovered In Han coin's grocery, on the north side ef Market street, above 13th, next door to Dennett's restaurant, and immediately opposite John Wanamaker3 establishment. 11 A. M. Tho slight of tho fire is not known at present. The flames spread with amazing rapidity and already th loss has reached one million dollars. Four large buildings havo been entirely destroyed. Tho flames spread rapidly oastward until they reached the eight-story building of Trlmbloy, Hunt & Co. This structure towers above those in which tho fire raged and it formed a barrier to the eastward progress of the flames- Tho firo is still raging and has crossed to the south side of Market street. Joha Wanamaker's big store is sow burn ing. 2 P. M. Tho fire has extended from 13th to Juniper streets and from Market to 1'il bcrt streets. John Wanamaker's store caaght firo sev eral times, but tho firemen were enabled to extinguish the flames each time so far. Tho fire is still spreading and calls for aid have boen sent by the authorities to surround ing citios and towns. UNDER CONTIIOL. 3:30 P. it. The firemen have succeeded in getting tho firo under control. At this hour there aro fifteen buildings moro or less damaged. The damage sustained by John Wanamakec is estimated at $150,000, with no insurance. The tetal losses incurred by tho fire aro estimated at f 3,500,000. nroen'a IUalto Cafe Free Lunch.

EXPLOSION $ fl KTTGtfEfl Range With a water-Back Blown Pieces. A WOMAN WAS BADLY INJURED Water In the Pipe Connected wvti u Range Became Frozen and a Thawing Caused the Explosion Mrs- Jackson ' Sustained a Fractured Thigh At about nine o'clock this monno was considerable excitoment on J.irdio lit-tween Centre and Lloyd BtreeK due xplusion iu tbe residence of A T ti. . m i The object that exploded was u wat imcK -range ana it piayeu navor in in m momma victnity. The report and ei.-apioi, steam caused by the explosion alarmed thi neighbors, who forgot the bitterness of tli cold weather and ran out upon the streets bareheaded, or scantily sholtered. An alarm of firo was sounded, buCthe blazo expected by the scattering of red hot coals did not materialize and services of the department were not required. Mrs. Ada Jackson, of Norj-Istowu, who is a guettof theShoener family, with her three children, was n victim of tho explosion and will be confined to bed for several weeks. She was standing close to tho rango whon It exploded and sustained a comminuted frac ture of the right thigh. At tho time of tho oxplpslon tho family was at breakfast In tho sanp, apartment con taining the range. Without warning tho ox plosion took place mid the licit moment tho rango was a heap of scrap iron on the floor, some of the wreckage covering Mrs. Jackson, who lay moaning at the place where she stood before tho range exploded. Men at tracted to tho scene wont to tho unfortunate woman's assistanco and carried her Into the house of Dr. J. S. Kistlor, next door. After the excitement died out and accommodations could bo arranged Mrs. Jackson was carried back to the Shoener residence and there at tended by Dre. J. S. Kiltler and G. M. Hamilton. When tho explosion occurrsd It scattered ashes, coals and soot all over the kitchen. Tho faces and clothing of those who sat at the breakfast table wore blackened by flying soot and other refuso from tho stove. All, Including Mrs. Jackson, escaped scalding. Tho range was literally blown into nieces. Tho explosion was caused by the freezing of water in tbe plpo that fed tie waterbaok compartment of the rango. Tho water in the back was consumed and a sudden thaw must havo caused a rush of cold water into tho heated compartment, which caused the explosion. Mrs. Jackson, the injured woman, fills a position ns Ensign in the Volunteers of America. Her husbanditfs also engaged in the work of the organization. Last week Mrs. Jackson camo from.her home in Norris town, Pa., to visit the Shoener family. Last" Saturday she wont to Hazleton to perform Volunteer work and last night returned hore, intending to take part in the local work of tho Volunteers for a few days.

Fearing that I might bleed to death I tied my handkerchief above tho wound, and then twisted my wntoh ohaln tight over it with ray keys. That stopped tho bleeding, and a few mo ments later nnother fall oocurrod, burying mo up to my breast."

"I am of tho opinion, therefore," ho says, "that tho general election proclamation under tho act of 1895 does not require a fao-slmllo of tho official ballot to bo published thoroin, but such proclamation must contain an enumeration of the officers to bo elanttul. nnd glvo a list of all nominations raado as proviueu by law and to bo voted for in oacn county.

Italsooon r.iinx the prineipal addresses and doou ni 'iits rotating to the silver movement and some of Mr. Bryan's speeches. One of the interesting features of the book Is tho sketch written by Mrs. Bryan, who thus describes their first meeting: " My pergonal knowledge of Mr. Bryan dates from September, 1879. He was then entering upon his junior year. I saw him first In the parlors of the young ladles' school whloh I attended at Jacksonville. He entered the room with several other students, 'was taller than tho rest, and at tracted my attention at once. He was neatly though not fastidiously dressed, and stood firmly and with dignity. I noted particularly his smllo. In later years this smile has been the subject of considerable comment. Upon one occa sion a heartless observer was heard to re mark, 'That man whispers In his oar,' but this was a oruol exaggeration." As to the criticism that Mr. Bryan had not distinguished himself as a lawyor sho says: "Those who thus complain should oonslder that he entered the practice at 93 and left it at 80, and during that period began twice and twloe beoaine more than self supporting. With the time of hlseleo tlon to oongress his praotlco was In a thriving oondltlon, and fully equal to that of any man In the olty." Tho early ohapters are devoted to an ac count of Mr. Bryan's oonneotldn with the silver movement and the development of tho silver sentimsut. Then follow chap ters devoted to tho Republican and Demo oratlo national conventions, Including the memorable oontost over the Chicago plat form. Referring to tho fact that the oon oludlng sentence of his convention speech had boen wldoly criticized, Mr. Bryan says : "I had usod tho Idea (cross of gold aud crown of thorns) In substantially tho samo form In uspeeoh In congress, but did not reoall tho fact when I usod It in the oonvoutlon. A portion of tho speooh was extemporaneous and Its arrangement en tirely so, but parts of It had boon prepared j.or anoiner. occasion." In a ohaptor entitled "Tho Trlplo De mand for Finanolul Independence," bi metallism is thus defined: "In a spooch made In Ohio, I think In 1895, Senator Sherman used language something like this 1 quote from mem ory : 'Tho pirlty between gold and silver can only be maintained by tho use of gold as a standard with silver coined In lim ited quantities as a limited legal tender. This can properly be called bimetallism.' "This definition of bimetallism has within the last four yoars boooina quite common among those who favor the gold standard, but are not willing to bo known as mouomotalllsts. Bimetallism means two-metallsm just asoertalnly as the word biped means an animal with two foet. It means the use of two metals as standard money, and to be standard money they must be treated alike. If to use gold as a standard with silver coin In limited quau- miglnnd now has bimetallism. Mnn-r In slst uVlfioalllng themselves blmetalllsts who weroVu- ' to vo to for bimetal lism, without an I n KrTfkttffiraiiiS-.-.c . Jlsn t . This made It necessary to adopt some means of distinguishing between indepen dent bfmetalllsts and International bl metalllsts." In a chapter devoted to "the bolting Democrats," Mr. Bryan says: "Tho only crUIolsm whloh I desire to record hero Is that the gold Damoorats sought to use the party name for purposes of deception. Tho party name bolongs to the majority of the party, and the minority oannot fairly, honestly or honorably use that name In suoh a way as to mislead the voters. I had at all times defended the sovereign right of tho cltizon to follow his oonsolenoe and his judgment In political matters, and to make his party affiliations conform to his oonvlctlous, but a fraud attempted against the voters Is no more defensible than u fraud attempted in n business transac tion." As to the statement In Mr. MoKinley's lottor of acceptance that the " mills should be opened Instead of tho mints," Mr. Bryan says: "This was an epigram niatlo sentence, and did considerable service In turning publto attention from the money quetloji to the tariff ques tion." I He says this about the trusts: -"Our country luw, in my Judgment, muoh to fear from the political influence of large corporations. This country Is falling more and more lute tho h-itids of corporations,, and since a lawyer reoolvei both hlg repu tation and experience from his practice,' the attorneys for tho great corporations oomo to be considered the leading attor neys at their respective bars. It may even Happen toat judges upon the bench will retain after appointment the bias .in quired In corporation practice." Regarding tho civil service, he says: "I do not believe that life tenure Is, as a rule, wise thing In a government like ours. Tho fact th it . tio pe lo uvike frequent ohaugos In thuir public officials In case of elective offices Is ooncluslve proof that life tenure Is not popular. If they desired to have their public servants hold office for life they would manifest that desire by keeping elective officials In elftoe perma nently. As lopg as human nature remains as It Is, It will not be gate to ptaee) public officials in a position where they are en tirely independent of those whom they serve." One of the lost chapters Is given up to "The Election Returns," and lu this Mr. Bryan says : '.'A the evening progressed the indloatlons pointed more and more strongly to defeat, and by 11 o'cldok I realized thai while tho returns from the couutry mi. n change the result, the sue- cess of my opponent was more than prob able. Confldonce resolved Itself into doubt, and doubt iu turn gave pluoo to resigna tion. Then v.iulshed from my mind the vision of a president In the White House perplexed by the cares ot state, and in tbe contemplation ot the picture of a oltiien by his fireside free from official respon sibility I fell asleep."
