The damage was estimated at Several small faring the board walk and occupied principally by Syrians, wc-re totally burned. The lire was started by an overheated stove, which set fire to a small store i up against the sidewalk- The flames leaped from store to store until a half block of the board walk and the stores that line it were ablaze. The board walk, wide at this point, is constructed of thick fat pine boards. The resinous pine made a splendid fuel. Fire Chief Black and his men fought the fire for almost an hour before getting it under control.

The fire was still burning at 2 o'clock, but the prospects were that it would be put out without niuch further damage. Several small hotels were menaced, but the firemen turned all their efforts to saving them from destruction, and the damage was comparatively slight. There are no big hotels in this section, which is the old "Bowery." GEORGE W. FITZGERALD HAD MONEY TO BURN AND IT ALL CAME TO LIGHT AFTER THE SUB-TREA8URY ROBBERY. CHICAGO, Nov.

O. R. Sherman, secretary of the Illinois Car Manufacturing company at Hammond, testified that soon after the money disappeared from the sub treasury Fitzgerald bought $3,500 worth of stock in the company, paying $1,200 in currency and soon afterward taking up $2,400 in notes, exchanging currency for them.

He said later another $3,500 worth of stock was purchased in the name of A. E. Johnson and that Fitzgerald voted the Johnson stock at the stockholders' meeting. Witnesses earlier in the trial had testified to the expenditure of $13,000 by Fitzgerald, of which $8,600 was spent in the purchase of a home.

DMMIW BONDS SUBJECT TO IKQUIRY ELEVEN MORE INDICTMENTS RETURNED BY FEDERAL GRAND JURY. INDIANAPOLIS, Xov. over bunds of tin- defendants in the i dynamite conspiracy trial broke out anew this afternoon when Judge Anderson announced that indi'mnSiied i bonds wore invalid. If a bondsman was proucted against loss, declared the court, in effect the i defendant could his lingers at i the law" and his without troubling the bondsman. Attorney Harding, chief of counsel for the defense, admitted being partly indemnified for bonds he had furnished, and other defense counsel made similar admissions.

Adjournment was made until o'clock to allow the indicted laborers to meet the court's interpretation of a valid bond. About a dozen men face- immediate loss of liberty. Three Have Hopes, INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. of the forty-live defendants in the dynamite conspiracy trial, against whom no incriminating evidence has been Introduced so far hoping today that rumors that they are to be discharged were true. The trio are: S.

P. Meadows, of this city; W. K. Benson, president of the Detroit, Federation of Labor; and M. H.

Davis, formerly of Philadelphia, now "West Virginia lumber dealer. was reported around the federal court bouse here, where the triul is being held, that Judge had practically decided to quash indictments ag'urnsi these men. a i a A a i on Stand. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. Noariirg the close of its ease, the government today continued to implicate the rest of the forty-Jive defendants in the dynamite conspiracy trial, union leaders who so far have not been dragged directly into the alleged plot to blast theii; way to a.

closed shop. This implication was made by testimony showing that explosions always followed refusals to employ union men. Fred Sherman, defendant from Indianapolis; J. H. Barry, business agent of the St.

Louis local, and John T. Butler, another defendant, were implicated in this fashion late yesterday. Ortie McManigal took the witness stand at opening of court today for cross-examination by Senator Kern. Raymond Burns, son of the well-known detective, was in tho city and expected to be called as a witness. The younger Burns was ready to corroborate the testimony of L.

L. Jewell, of Pittsburgh, that Herbert S. a member of the union's executive board, betrayed his fellow officers. Sen.itor Kern announced that he probably would continue with the counsel for the defense, until the case was finished, which would probably not be before mid-January. -This was taken to mean that Senator Kern would not attend the opening of congress In December.

That he did not care when he was arrested for his dynamiting jobs, was the statement of Ortie McManigal, on cross-examination. He was expecting arrest at any time, he declared. This feeling of indifference stole over him, following the Los Angeles Times explosion, said Ortie. Senator Kern tried to get McManigal to admit that he was in the employ of a detective agency, even as a dynamiter. Ortie hotly denied this, as well as the implication in Kern's question that the witness had been in the employ of the National Eerctors' association.

The informer seemed to be prepared for Kern's questions and gave his answers in a loud, clear voice, without hesitation. He stuck closely to the details of his confession, McManigal's examination, featureless, was interrupted to allow Detroit (Mich.) witnesses to describe explosions there, implicating defendant Herbert Hockin. The explosions took place at the Russell Wheel Foundry company, and always following trouble with union representatives, the witnesses declared. The Evidence Yesterday. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov.

offered at the trial of the dynamite conspiracy case in the federal court yesterday indicated that three of the defendants visited structural steel work in their respective localities to ask open-shop contractors to employ union men, and on their refusal explosions followed. Wallace Marshall, of Lafayette, president of the Lafayette Engineering company, testitfled that Fred Sherman, one of the Indianapolis defendants, visited him at his office preceding the explosion at the addition to the French Lick hotel March 20, ,1911, anad asked him to employ union men. John T. Qarrett, of St. Louis, president of the Missouri Bridge Iron company, testified that J.

H. Barry, business agent for the St. Louis Iron Workers' union and one of the defendants, visited him in East St. Louis and asked that union men be employed there, and afterward, on Aug. 9, 1908, an explosion occurred.

W. E. McCain, of Erie, testified that he was present at a conversation between his uncle, F. J. McCain, head of a construction company, when the latter conferred with John T.

Butler, now a member of the executive board of the Iron Workers' International union, in which McCain declined to employ union men, and afterward there was an explosion. Accused Union Agent. The testimony of Mr. Marshall, of Lafayette, was to the effect that Sherman called on him and represented to him that he was the business agent for the Iron Workers' union In Indianapolis. He said Sherman told him he had called to induce him to employ union iron workers at the French Lick job, for which the Lafayette company had the contract.

When the witness refused, he testified that Sherman asked him: "Why Is it that you have It In for the unions?" He replied, according to his testimony: "I haven't got it in for the unions, but I have got it in for you dynamiters." Shortly after this conversation the work at French Lick was dynamited, the witness testified, and afterward Sherman again visited Marshall In his office In Lafayette and asked him to employ union men on some work the company had on the Wabash river. "When he came back the second time I told him he had a good deal of nerve to come back, since he blowed up our French Lick work." He said that Sherman seemed surprised to think that he believed the iron workers were responsible for the dynamite explosion. DIED THIS MORNING AT LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY.

Servia Recalls Troops. BERLIN, Nov. the Servian government has ordered practically all its troops recalled from Turkey to resist an Austrian invasion was reported here this afternoon. The Servians' defection, if the story proves true, will be a serious matter for Bulgaria, which probably will have to make peace with Turkey on pretty miich the sultan's own terms, since there is no hope that it can make further progress with its campaign unless Servia comes to its assistance.

On the whole the situation was thought here to be taking a turn very favorable to Turkey and incidentally Austria's interests dictating preservation of the badly disturbed "status quo" for Austria as well.

As a matter of fact the transportation men handle the same material as those on the union railroad. ''After the men left the plant a meeting was called for 10 o'clock that morning, which was Saturday, Nov.

23, and at this meeting the Braddock was! represented by a large delegation in addition to the men from the Homestead plant At the meeting it was decided by the Braddock men to call the employes from the. Bessemer plant, the men from the latter worka having the same kind of a grievance as their brothers ot the Homestead, in that Thomas McMunn and Michael Mulkearn were discnarged because they had been in circulating the petition among the men. Thomas superintendent of transportation discharged the two men. Mulkearn was discharged for being an agitator, while McMunn was given no reason why he should be discharged. One of the leaders in circulating the petition at the Bessemer plant had a conference with Mr.

Cosgrove and the former said threatening strike could be avoided by word from him that the two men be placed back to work. The same condition of affairs existed at the Homestead plant, the committee asking for the reinstatement of The Homestead committee visited Mr. Hunt at Homestead yesterday and asked him for a reason for the discharge of Mr. Alshouse, but lie rtf- fused to answer the men.

However, the company waa making preparations for possible trouble and a string of freight can was drawn about Homestead mill, presumably as a bulwark in case of serious altercations the strikers and the company. The Hots of 1892 have not been forgotten. Although the company yesterday agreed to raise the plant trainmen's wages so ai to equal the pay of the union railroad employes, and offered other conoessions, it refused to reinstate the three employes discharged for circulating petitions in connection with the trouble.

At the time of the Austro- PruesUn war the principality sided with Austria and mobilized an army of 100 of all ranks to share in the fighting.
