ROCHESTER, N. Y., April I I.
The Mg fire of yesterday is a mem
ory ot today, with probably three
quarters of it millloii dollars' loss at
tendant and a great many homeless
people wandering the stree s.
Some of the homeless are quar
tered in precinct houses and a large 1
number are today In a public school :
building A heavy rain set. in and
while it helped extinguish the smoul
dering fires, it was a hardship on
the homeless.
The loss includes $00,060 on the
Painter building: $100,000 on Hunt
ington A- Co., manufacturers of,
plumbers' supplies. $80,000 on tlte
Jewish temple Iterlth Kodesh, which
is in ruins.
Fifty residences, i he First Re
formed church of America, the Ward
apartments and First German Lu
theran Zion church were destroyed.
St. Peter's Presbyterian church was
damaged.
It was erroneously reported that
one girl was missing and that one |
fireman had ix’en killed. Several
flretmn were injured It/ falling weds
or overcome by smoke.
During the efforts to save the Pal
mer building, the lire ate down
through Rerith Kodesh temple unin
terrupted for some time, and when
the firemen turned their atention
there tlte flames were beyond con
trol Several firemen were struck by
falling bricks and a hose cart was
burled beneath the ruins. Many 1
girls employed in the buildings left ,
by the fire escapes.
The residents were in a great panic
during the blaze. Apparently there
was but one thought—the city was '
doomed. Women threw from the
windows of houses not yet burning,
all sorts of furniture and personal
belongings. Considerable property
thus was needlessly destroyed.
From the Palmer building fire the
sparks carried a mile and set the
First Reformed church ablaze. Lit
tle attention was paid to the new
fire at first but soon alarms sounded
from half a dozen boxes in that vl-,
cinity.
Chatham. Nassau and Kelly streets
are in the Jewish district. It was
the last day of the feast of the Pass
over. and many of the polish Jews,
seeing the pall of smoke and the fire
fulling on all sides, interpreted the
situation as the sign of the coming of
tho Messiah.
Aien. women and children knelt in
the streets to pray. Their shouts
were terrifying. Still others seized
armfuls of articles from the houses
and carried them Into the streets,
only to have the goods consumed by
the fire

RECONNAISANGE FOR ROAD
NOW HAVE ADVANCE INFORMATION FRETTY WELL IN HAND—
COVERED MICH TERRITORY ON TEN RAY TRII*—SIGNIFI
CANT THAT CHIEF ENGINEER GOES TO CHERRY CREEK TO
KAY—GENERAL MANAGER RYAN TO BE HERE NEXT WEEK.
_ i -—— _
M. Rasor, chief engineer of tlie
Tonopah & Tidewater, and Locating
Hnginer Vandework of that road, ar
rived in Hast Ely yesterday afternoon
front a ten day trip southwest front
the cantp.
The trip was one of reconuoissance,
its object being to make comparison
of the desirability of the several
routes of entry to the camp through
the mountain ranges this side of
Railroad valley. It was said by the
engineers last night that they itad
been over the ground with such
thoroughness as to enalde them to
draw tlnal conclusions from the in
formation ohtaiued.
They left East Ely Monday a week
ago, going out by Ward. Return was
by tlie same route. During their ab
sence they made inspection of the
Murry creek preliminary survey and
of much other territory, including
Currant creek and other localities,
I'nlll they have summarized their
findings, however, there will lie noth
ing of definite character to give out
as to the route of tlie new road on
this end.
Mr. Rasor leaves this morning for
Cherry Creek, a fact that will be
considered significant by many in
connection with the great deal of talk
which has circulated in the last few
months concerning construction ol an
ore line from Salt Lake by wuy of
Deep Creek and Cherry Creek to East
Ely. , „
International and l tilted State
Smelting interests have been chiefly
mentioned in connetion with con
struction of this Hue, but the interest
of the chief engineer of the Tonopah
A: Tidewater In the Cherry Creek vi
cinity would seem to justify the
coupling of the new road from here
to Goldfield with the project, which
if carried out would let the Tidewa
ter and Santa Ke through to Salt
Lake hv a much shorter route than
connection with the Northern would
enable, while giving the new line ac
cess to a big tonnage of ore in Deep
Creek country which could, by reason
of its desirable character, lie used to,
much advantage l»y the smelters at
1,0th this end of the line and at tile
Salt Lake end.
Locating Engineer Vandework "ill
remain at East Ely during the ab
sence of Mr. Hasor and spend bis
time in gathering further data con
cerning the country through which
(lie new road will have to build in
making Its entry to the camp trom
the west.
General Manager Ryan of the D
nopah W Tidewater Is expected to ar
rive during the first part of next
week and will meet his engineet in
East Ely. where they are legisieied
at the Steptoe.

HARMON ON
TARIFF
Democratic Governor of
Ohio is not Pleased
| With the Course Con
gress is Pursuing
I _
DECLARES THAT PRESENT REV I
SION is A .MOCKERY AND TRAV
ESTY UPON JUSTICE — MUST
GET RACK TO JEI'EERSON.
NEW YORK. April 14.—“The re
ductions in the pending tariff legisla
tion form nothing hut mockery of
the deinaud for relief," asserted Gov
ernor .1 arisen Harmon, of Ohio, in his
address at the annual dinner of tlie
.National Democratic club at the Ho
I te! Savoy.
He insisted real relief never would
j i>e secured except under a congress
and executive finding Jeffersonian
rules and treating taxes as a means
of public revenue and not of private
gain.
Governor Harmon protested
j strongly against what he termed tiie
growing encroachment of special
privilege at Washington. insisting
that the steady tendency since the
civil war has been to exalt the fed
eral government at the expense of
the state, one result being the neg
] left of economy and the embarkation
of the government Into extravagant
I enterprises.
He instanced tiie action of the last
1 congress in appropriating two billion
. of dollars and the raising of salaries
i of officials in the face of a growing
! shortage and continued:
“Now. instead of seekiug methods
| of retrenchment, the pr<>sident and
congress are devising additional
i taxes to exact from the diminished
| means of the people and are pro
. posing to issue bonds besides. State
I officials who would propose such a
course would not dare to go home
I to their constituents and would he
forever disgraced if they should
| take it.
“The wage earners, for whom
there is the usual show of deep Intel
' est. are not present or represented in
j tiie pulling and hauling going
on so as to secure the advantages
, professed to l»e for them. The in
I crease caused by the tariff will mostly
go, as it lias always gone, to make
; unnatural profit, for the employer
i whose solicitude for his workmen
■ does not even take tiie form of fail
division of the spoils
"Some luckless interests whose
. pull lias grown weaker or has been
I overcome by a counter pull like the
wood, pulp paper trust, may. with
great economy, lie annoluted with
the oil of sacrifice for the salvation
of the oth£r. but the reductions, when
real, will be n mockery of the cry
for relief.
"It is hardly fair for the Repub
licans. at least, to charge with in
consistency Democratic congressmen
who take a hand in this selfish scram
ble. In the last campaign, the Re
publican candidate for president
openly offered a share of tariff spoil
for Democratic voles. When special
favors are the order of the day, it Is
natural for a representative to think
tie ought to secure a share for the lit
terests at home.
“Why tax the people to Guild a
costly canal and secure ships for for
eign commerce while a tariff system
is maintained to discourage or kill
foreign commerce except such as con
sists in selling our products abroad
for less price than are imposed on
our own people What state govern
tnent ever committed such folly.
“Surely, instead of tiie union dom
inating the states which compose it,
it would be better far if the states
would require from the central gov
eminent which their people estab
lished and maintained, strict observ
auce of the same principles and prat
Hoes of economy, fairness and equal
ity of rights and benefits w liich have
always prevailed in them. This can
