answsr, N. Y., Oct. til—What prom
fees to be the most horrible holocaust in
the hlswry of Syracuse occurred last night
and this morning in the homing of the
Inland hotel, and the city is in a furor of
excitement. The hotel, which is by far
the largest in central New York, was to-
tally destroyed by fire, and it is believed
that twenty-five of the guests and em-
ployee perished in the “allies. Frank
Casey, of Glens Falls, N. Y., and Emmett
Forbes, a prominent Syracuse broker, are
among the dead. Miss Corn Tanner, the
famous Brooklyn actress, who was play-
ing an engagement at the Grand Opera
house, hsda room in the hotel. She so
caped with her life, but was badly burned
about the head and feet. .The majority of
the killed were on the fourth nnd fifth
floors.

spend by means of the elevator well. which
was near the stairway, and so all means of
escape were cut oil and those in the upper
stories were compelled to jump. The
clerk of the hotel began sending in the
alarm by telephone, but the flames spread
sorepidly that he was driven from the
instrument and compelled to jump to save
his own live The firemen saved many
lives. Nothing is left of the building ex-
ceptthe elevator shaft and the chimney.
The total loan will reach armor).

It Spread with frightful Quietness.

The fire started at 11:50 p. in. last night
and spread with such frightful quickness
that thirty minutes after the first alarm
was given the entire hotel was entirely
wrapped in flames Many of the guests
escaped to their night clothes. but at least
fifteen met a horrible death in the flames
Nine engines were engaged in lighting the
fire, and by 2:3) a m. today the conflngra-
tlon was under control.

hoped for Their Lives-

A Inter account than the above says:
The most disastrous fire that has visited
Syracuse in years started in the Leland
hotel at 12:5) o’clock this morning. The
fire was first noticed coming from the
kitchen on the second floor. Immediately
the blaze was communicated to the dining
room, and from there spread in a very few
moments to all parts of the great building.
The bell sounded the warning to the guests
in every room in the building and from the
windows heads of frightened people were
thrust. Then they came down the elevator
and down the stairs, runny with hardly any
article of clothing upon them.

One man jumped from the fourth story
to the lop of the Americnn express build-
ing. Several other guest», including the
ladies, sprang from theirwindows. There
were perhaps one hundred guests in the
hotel. The people injured were taken in
the ambulances to the lumpilnls of the city.
The flames were all-powerful M 1:15 o'clock
and sprung forty feet above the six story
building.

From Ten to Twenty Lust.

It is esliuutfcd that from ten to twenty
people have lost their lives. One woman
jumped from a fourth story window and
was killed. i‘uru ’l'uucr, the nrlress, and
her company Were guests at the hotel.
Miss ’l'anncr slid down a tire maps and
was cut and burned by the rope on her
hands. It issnid that. wine of her com-
pany is bust. The register of the hotel
was saved, and it is believed that. a list of
the loot can be made within a few hours.

Forbe- Wiao Not Killed.

head and hands. One In“ says he saw six
people jump from different windows on
the Fayette street side of the building
witblua spam of four minutes, and the
sight sickened him with its horror and he
was compelled to leave the spot. The
building was provided with both iron flm
escapee on the (intuide and ropes on the in-
slde, which were the means of saviuginnuy
lives. One woman waflonnd with a nun

foot. of the statue of Gen. Reynolds, the
party was photographed. 0n East Cem-
etery hill the observatory was utilized,
and then the line of carriages rolled down
to Culps hill. while Gen. Slocum pointed
out to the count the points of interest. In
returning to town the Emmettsbnrg road
was followed as for as the peach orchard,

Buruno, N. Y., Oct to. —- The Hon.
Thomas B. Reed addressed an audience of
over sow people in Music hell lestnlght.
Speaker Reed was given a royal reception.
He was escorted to Music hell by the Re-
publican league club. and on being intro-
duced by Chairman Miter was greeted
with a storm of applause. Alter thanking
his audience for their cordial welcome he
said:

A Democratic Club's Question

“I intend to address you on the living
issues of the day but I will vary the order.
I have been respectfully reqnated bye
Democratic club to answer certain ques-
tions. I am so little used to respectful
language from the Democratic party in
the region where the major part of my
duties is performed that I feel inclined on
account of this remarkable phenomenon
to comply with the request, and further be-
cause the questions are quite easy.

"The first question is, Do I consider the
McKinley hill just to the 'boor! Well, I
should say so. A bill which has for its ob-
ject the raising of the wages of the poor
and at the Mine time to lower the price of
necessities would seem to me tobenot
only just, but generous.

anes and the Tar“! Bill.

“This club desires also to know whether
any instances can be given where wages
have been raised by a high tariff bill. The
McKinley bill has been in operation only
nine days, and it shows remarkable brill-
iancy on the port of the club that they ex-
pect wages robe raised in that time by
thatbxll. But. if they read the morning
newspapers they would learn that manu—
facturers of pearl buttons are reported to
have raised the wages of their men )5 per
cent. on account of the McKinley bill
What shall it profit a young free trader if
he only loves Grover Cleveland and never
reads the Mugwump papers? Another
question is:

“If protection makes higher wages. why
is it that the people of New South Wales
have higher wages than protected France?
Protection never raises wages. The quote
lion is whether protection causes higher
wages than in a country under free trade?
That question is answered by the United
States under thirty years of Republican
rule. Everybody knows that the wagm of
the laboring man in the United States is
higher today than in “’53, at the close of
the free trade period.

Articles [assured by the Bill.

“Still another question is, (‘un I state
any article wh‘h has been lowered in price
by the McKinley or any other tariff bill. I
can spend the evening doing that. I re-
member paying 313:3 a yard for ingrniu
carpet which I can buy today for forty-five
cents. Iron nails cost 85 a keg then; steel
ones now are Slit).

Mr. (‘nrllale'n Dilemma.-

“Severul year.» ago Mr. Curlisle stated on
nfavorite Democratic dilemma that. it is
an absurdity that no sophistry cnnuplain
that the turn! by making labor higher can
make the product of thut higher paid labor
cheaper.

“It Wins a hard dilemma; they had to ad‘
mit, two facts~ wages were higher and the
products of those u sizes lower. The Dem-
ocrats rlanu {lint the lower prices are
caused by invention and cheap railroad
transportation. What causes the inven-
tion? lwill prove ll rests on protection.

LONDON, 0m... Oct. lit—A number of
sympathizers of Birchall, the murderer
awaiting execution at Woodstock, who be-
lieve he was not. altogether fairly dealt.
with, have prepared a petition to be pre-
sented to the governor general in his be-
half. Among the reasons urged for asking
it are that the. evidence against him was
wholly circumstantial; that the press of
Canada had prior to the trial so inflamed
and prejudiced the mind of the public
against the prisoner that it Was impossible
to obtain a jury to try the matter impar-
tially and without bias; that much that
was alleged in the newspapers against him
after his arrest, but of which no proof was
given at the trial, must have had an influ-
ence upon the minds of the jury prejudi-
cial to the prisoner.
