Chicago, March 17. It required Just
20 minutes yesterday afternoon for one
of the most snvnfie fires Chicago has
seen Blnee the famous cold storage
warehouse (Ire on the World's fair
Grounds In 1893 to take from 1G to 20
lives, malm 30 people nnd reduce a
six story brick building to a pile of
blazing timber, red hot bricks nnd
twisted Iron. The number of dead Is
still In doubt.
Three men are known to bo dead,
They are: Samuel A. Clnrk, book
keeper for the Olmestead Scientific
company; Miles A. Smith, salesman
for the Olmstead Sclentlllo company:
Edward lllnz, cashier for Sweet, AVal
lach & Co.
The three known dead were cut off
from escape by the flames, and to Bave
themselves from death by llame they
Jumped from the sixth story to tho
sidewalk, their bodies being terribly
crushed. Clark and Blnz remained to
put their books In the safe.
The missing, of whom nothing has
been learned, and most of whom aro
without question In tho wreck of tho
building, are:
W. A. Olmstead, president of tho W.
A. Olmstead Scientific company; C. II.
Arms, secretary of the same com
pany; Mrs. M. H. Harris, widow, 42
years of age, bookkeeper for the same
company; C. T. Anderson, employed by
Sweet, Wallach & Co.; W. W. Hill, as
sistant In ofllce of Presbyterian Doard
of Publication; Tony , an ofllce
boy; Fred Hamlll, vaudeville singer,
employed by the National Music com
pany; C. A. Price, cashier; Solomon
Grottmnn, agent; Solomon Grottman,
Sr.; Anna Guest, cashier; W. n . Nelson,
worked for Olmstead Scientific com
pany; William Marvin, shipping clerk
for Presbyterian Board of Publication;
William Boss, errand boy; W. J. Wil
cox, partner of W. A. Olmstead.
The building was six stories high,
had a frontage of E8 feet on Wabash
avenue and extended back 100 feet to
an alley. It was of what Is known as
mill construction, had two elevator
shafts, one In front, one In the rear,
and reaching from the third story to
the roof was a light shaft, which gave
the flames every chnnce, and It was
because of this shaft that the fire
spread with such awful rapidity. The
building was occupied by a number of
concerns, some employing large num
bers of people. It Is estimated that 400
persons were at work In the building
when the fire was discovered.
The origin of the fire Is In dispute.
By some It Is said to have been caused
by an explosion of collodion In the
wall paper warerooms of Alfred Peats,
on the third floor, and by others to
have been the result of an explosion
among some photographic chemicals In
the photographic supply house of
Sweet, Wallach & Co., on the sixth
floor. Employes of both concerns deny
that there was any explosion In their
vicinity. The weight of evidence seems
to be, however, that the explosion was I
In the lower part of the building.
The sound of the explosion threw
tho Inmates of the building Into a
panic, and on several floors a wild
stampede for the stairways and ele
vators began. To add to the panic
the men In charge of the elevators
ran their cars up to the top of the
building, shouting fire at every floor.
When they reached the top both ele
vators took on a load of frightened
women and started for the bottom.
The front elevator was In charge of
Harry Gleason, a boy, and that in the
rear was handled by William St. John,
a young man. Both of these kept their
heads, showed much coolness and
bravery, and were Instrumental In sav
ing many lives.
The elevator In the front of the
building was In good order, but not
calculated to produce much speed In
Mich an emergency as confronted It
yesterday. Gleason made one trip to
the seventh floor, carrying down a load
of women, and although the smoke was
rolllniT through the building In dense
clouds he started up again. At the
rourth floor ho stopped to take on a
crowd of girls from the rooms of the
National Music company, being assist
ed In his work by Miss Katherlne Car
ney, the forewoman. A man attempted
to force his way Into the elevator, but
Gleason shoved him back Into the hall,
that tho women might havo the first
chance. The man never came out.
Miss Carney was a true heroine. Al
though at tho outset she had an op
portunity to escape with the other
women, she seemed to feel It her duty
to stay and help tho escape of the girls
over whom she had charge. Her voice
could be heard above the shrieks of tho
panic Btrlcken girls, advising them to
preserve order and reassuring them
again and again. She stood near the
stairway, nnd attempted to seize the
foremost women as they dashed down
to the next floor, but Bhe was thrown
aside.
When she saw there was no hope of
Mopping the panic she darted to the
elevator cage to calm the others. As
the elevator ascended Miss Carney or
dered the conductor to Btop. She then
turned and helped her frightened
charges Into the cage. During all the
excitement she remained calm, and Is
sued orders as though directing the
women at work. As the elevator start
ed to descend without Miss Carney one
of the girls cried to the conductor to
stop, but the brave woman, though
Btarlng death In the face, ghouted for
them not to mind her, that she would
take care of herself. With remarkable
coolness she made her way to an ele
vator and thence to the street. Tho
brave woman Is seriously burned about
the face and head. She modestly dis
claims the title of heroine, but proudly
declares: "All my girls escaped alive.'
The girls Miss Carney sept down la
the elevator escaped unharmed. Two
of those who bolted headlong down the
narrow stairway, Josle and Annie
Baxa, made their way to the second
Moor, but were cut oft by the flames
wid were forced to Jump from a win
flow. They wer both badly injured.

Wnshlneton, March 1". Hon. T. V.
Powderly wns conllrined In the senate
executive session yesterday, by a voto
ot 43 to 20, as commissioner of lmml
Ijratlon. Senator Chandler was the only
Republican who voted against confirm
ation, while a large number of Demo
crats voted for Mr. l'owderly. The vote
was preceded by a rather sharp debate
In which the question whether Mr. l'ow
derly had made a trade with the Ile-
publlcans In the last campaign was dis
cussed quite freely.
Senators Teller and Stewart nttacked
Mr. Powderly's record on the financial
question, and Senator Stewnrt read a
TETiriENCE V. POWDEItLT.
letter from Powderly written during; the
campaign of 1S92 In which he had de
clared his adherence to the cause of bi
metallism and denounced those of the
labor element who had aligned them
selves on the Republican side as render
ing themselves liable to tho charge of
being made the subjects of bribery. Mr.
Stewart contended that Mr. Powderly
had placed himself in exactly the cate
gory In which he had previously sought
to place others.
Senator Hanna made a brief speech
In which he asserted that Mr. Powder
ly's support of the Republican ticket In
the late campaign was not tho result of
any collusion or bargain.
"Mr. Powderly," he said, "came to
us of his own accord and without any
solicitation on our part. We did not
go after him, and we did not promise
him anything."
Furthermore, Mr. Hanna said that
he was not originally a supporter of
Powderly for the position of commis
sioner of Immigration, having an
other candidate for the ollice. This
fact ought to be sulllclent evidence,
Mr. Hanna thought, to convince the
most skeptical that there had been no
bargain that Mr. Powderly should
have the ollice as the result of his ser
vices in the campaign.
Mr. Chandler made another speech
In opposition, reading protests from la
bor organizations and declaring that
tho Republican party could not afford
to appoint to so Important an ofllce a
man so distasteful to the labor ele
ment. Mr. Fairbanks closed the debate In
Mr. Powderly's behalf, defending his
record In olTlco and his character as
a man. He said that Mr. Powderly
had demonstrated by several months
of service his fitness for the office. He
asserted that the only charges made
against him were of an appeal nature.
and contended that these were not of
a character to in any way reflect upon
him or to Justify opposition to his con
firmation. Tor Infants and Children.

WohlnRton, Mnrch 17. The poatofllre
appropriation bill, which wan technical
ly the subject before the house yester
day, was almost lost track of In the de
bate. Numerous topics were dlneiiFed,
but for the first time the Cuban-Spim-Ish
question, which bud been kepi in the
background heretofore, forged to the
front. Mr. Cochran, Missouri Demo
crat, brought the question Into the
arena, nnd In the conrse of the debate
that followed Mr. Qrosvenor, of Ohio,
took occasion to deny emphatically the
Htorles afloat to the effect that the pres
ident desired an early adjournment of
congress Hi order that he mii?ht effort a
settlement without conttresslonHl inter

nexation alro came in for more atten

and Kerry of Kentucky, Democrats, and
Adams of Pennsylvania, Tlepubliran,
all members of the foreign affairs com
