D. M.

Jones was held by the First Welsh Congregational church of Scranton, Pa. H. M. Edwards, D. D.

WRANGLE OF MAGNATES. National Base Ball League Tangled in Bitter Representatives Demand Recognition. SOUTH SIDE NEWS. Fire in the Bleaching House of wanna Knitting Mills- Man Killed at Blast Furnace Buried. The watchman at the Lackawanna Knitting mills at 7.30 last evening discovered fire in the bleaching house and he promptly sent in an alarm by tele.

phone to the Century Hose company. That company immediately started for the mills, and a few minutes later an alarm was sent in from box 58 at the corner of Cherry street and Remington avenue, bringing the Neptune and William Connell companies out. But there is a hose carriage at the mills, and the men employed on the night shift got it out and got a stream on the blaze. Chief Hickew was quickly on the scene and under his direction the flames were quickly subdued. The entire loss will not exceed probably $50.

That was the statement made by Charles R. Connell, general manager of the mills. He was driven to the scene in haste and arrived just as the fire was quenched. A pot of sulphur in the bleaching house got ignited and set fire to some woolens. But for the flames were so quickly noticed, and it they had any start at all, the whole place would be in great danger.

This is the second time that fire has started in this department, and since the first time the watchman exercises a strict watch over it. Under the circumstances there was nothing destroyed except some woolens, and the mills will be able to go on today as usual. The alarm was the first one rung in from box 58. JOHN COWASH BURIED.

The King of Pulls 13 Chicago, Nov. National league at 2 o'clock had become spilt into two factions over the arbitration board matter and they held meetings far apart in the hotel, and behind locked doors. The one under the leadership of Dr. Stuckey, of Louisville, went to a room on the top floor and the big five remained in the regular meeting place on the parlor floor. At that time the situation was chaotic, with Louisville holding the coveted balance of power and Stuckey making all kinds of demands for crack players in return for his vote against the major combine.

The fixed demand of Louisville was for Hallman of Philadelphia, Catcher Clements and Right Fielder Sam Thomson in exchange for "Chick" Frazer and McCreary. The deal for this trade was started yesterday but the arbitration board wrangle complicated matters. At 4 o'clock the factions came together, and the report which obtained most credence was that Stuckey had been won over to support his old colleagues by liberal transfer of players. Dr. Stuckey said before the meeting of each faction at 2 o'clock: "I want something, the Louisville club wants I something and fortunately the despised Louisville club is in a position to dictate.

I want concessions from both sides no matter how I act. If I remain will not changed and Louisville will with the one smaller faction the tie. vote be in line for representation on the national board of arbitration. For years we have been mulcted and I firmly behave been squeezed with the intention of getting rid of us. We will the strengthening of our team.

Stuckey for the vote of Louisville. Bill Clarke, Connaughton and Stafford were players mentioned. ACADEMY OF MUSIC, Friday and Saturday, Nov. 13-14 Special Matinee Saturday. The Old Reliable, J.
