1 The lodging house commission gave a hearing in Parker memorial hall last evening, attended by several hundred South End lodging house keepers, lodgers, social settlement workers and others. many of whom expressed their opinions freely on lodging house morality, sanitation and other things which the commission is investigating, and also on some things which are not up for investigation. As a whole it was a "breezy" hearing. Ex-Alderman William Berwin spoke at GOODWIN'S 1COTTAGES AT nhInnnrnj ALLERION BURN PUflDPIQ tILLLII I U11 UU11111 as $15,000 is left to the People's palace.

Loss of About $1501000 on 'Three Docks and Freight: Grand Trunk Sheds' Will be Total Loss.

II PORTLAND, Me, Dec 4-s-A fire which broke out 4.11 the freight shed of No. 1 dock of the Grand Trunk elevator company shortly' before 1 o'clock this morning zained great headway and half an hour late had spread to No. 2 dock and, fanned by a strong westerly breeze, threatened to sweep across all the eight docks of the company's plant. The first alarm was followed by a second in 15 minutes, and immediately afterward a general alarm was sounded. Help was asked for also from Lewiston.

Bath and Biddeford. At that time the freight sheds on No. 1 and No. 2 docks were burning fiercely. and the entire fire-fighting force of the city seemed powerless to prevent a much greater destruction of property.

Three Steamers Tied Up. Thr4 steamers, the Cervona of the Thomson line, the Cornishman of the Dominion line and a whaleback tramp were tied up at the docks, but it was thought that none of these would suffer damage. The Cornishman, which was at dock No. 4, nearest to the fire, wal warped out into the stream and preparations were made to remove the other steamers from the dock should the fire spread dangerously near them. Both the old and the new elevators of the Grand Trunk formed part of the threatened dock property, but neither of them was in immediate danger in the early stages of the fire.

Two conveyors or runways attached to the elevators were torn down to prevent Continued On the Second Page.

Ile suggested that the commission go out of commission and tell Mayor Hibbard that they had Investigated the lodging houses and wished to be released from further duty. Mr Her 4in is firmly of the opinion that you can't make people either virtuous or moral by means of licenses or new laws.

1 I The will of Caleb Chase. of the firm of Chase Sanborn, which will ne offered for probate many Unusual. bequests. An estate of more than half a million dollars is involved. Mr Chase did not forget the poor and needy in his will, nor did he overlook his employes.

Perhaps the most thoughtful provision of all is that for widows, four in number. whose husbands as salesmen for the firm of Chase Sanborn had given n-any years of faithful service. To each of the widows of these salesmen the will leaves $5000. The bequests made under the will include $2000 to certain members of the organization who have been connected with the firm for many years, and to each member of the sales and office departments of more than a year he left $500, and to everyone employed in the shipping department and factory for more than a year $200 is given. Thirty-five traveling salesmen for the firm will receive $1000 each.

To relatives. of whom there are several. sums ranging from $100 to $20,000 each, arc given, and after several bequestsc public and private, have been made the residue is to be left in trust for the benefit of his widow, to be divided at her death among certain specified relatives.

Pfaff, first wife of Henry Pfaff Jr of Lexington, to settle any claim she might have against the estate, and testimony that bhe was finally given $5130, were introduced in the Pfaff case before Judge McIntire in the Middlesex probate court at East Cambridge yesterday afternoon. of the amount paid it appeared that $4630 went to Mrs Pfaff and $500 to an attorney, the checks being dated March 31, 1900. Several sensational features were brought out at the hearing, reviewing a decree of the Middlesex court, which allowed the will Nov 21, 1900. Evidence showing that petitioner was married to Henry PfaiT Jr in Stuttgart, Germany, Dec 9. 1890; obtained a divorce In South Dakota, where she went especially for that purpose.

in April. 1893; that under the assumed name of Katherine Lewis. she married 17-year-old Samuel Derry Bogart of Elizabeth, at New York, Sept 25, 1897; that she later married Bernard C. Cass of England in New York, May 11, 1899, and that she left him last March in order to come to America to proceed against the Pfaff estate. was Introduced.

It also appeared in evidence that on March 31, 1900, the first Mrs Pfaff signed an agreement in which she waived alt dower and homestead rights in the Pfaff estate; also a covenant In whica she agreed not to sue for alimony, and 34 other agreements in which she waived ail right to different Individuals holding an interest in 34 parcels of real estate. In court yesterday, however, she said that when she signed she had not read and did not understand what she was signing. Henry Pfaff Jr died in the fall of 1906, leaving an estate valued at 8300,000, to be divided equally between his second wife, Louise C. Pfaff. and their two children.

who are now in Europe. The widow in possession was to have her third for use during her lifetime, and if she marries again or at her death her share is to go to the two children. There was no contemt when the will was filed for probate. It was allowed and the petition for review was filed in October and was allowed last month. Mrs Pfaff Tells Her The case opened yesterday morning and Mrs Pfaff was on the stand nearly all day.

being subjected to cross-examination by Mr G. Anderson. In her direct testimony conducted by F. Gaylord Cook, Mrs Pfaff testified she is the daughter of J. Anton necking, a noted French portrait painter: was married to Pfaff in Stuttgart Dec 9.

1890; that they separated In 1802 in Paris; that In the fall of 1892 she came to America and went to Sioux Falls, 5 D. and took up a residence for the purpose of securing a divorce; that she obtained the decree In April, 1893, and, returned to Europe in June or July that year. She said she had received no legal notice of Pfaff's death, but was told of It by a friend when she reached New York in March, when she came to America to learn what her legal status was in relation to the Pfaff estate. The point at issue in the case is whether the Dakota divorce is legal. The petitioner claims that since she went there especially to obtain a divorce it is not legal under Massachusetts law, and, therefore, she has rights In the estate.

The respondents set up that the contrary Is true. THE WEATHER. ------r WA SHINGT 0 Rio Dec 8Forecast for .1 New EnglandFair and warmer Fri. r. 11' rf4 and warmer.

During the croem-examination Mr Anderson Mrs Pfaff what led lh to doubt the legelity of the divorce. She replied that about April 22, 1906.

when a decision was banded down by the Supreme court In the case of Haddock Avs Haddock, the Englieh papers published a great deal about the validity of divorces secured in South Dakota.
