Tho chamber of commerce build ing was erected fourteen years ago at a cost of S,S5,000, to be used as a board of trade. The city grew away from it, however, and-it was never used for iis oygiual purpose, but for many years mid been used as an apartment house. The struc ture was four stories in height, with a deep basement and faced two streets. It was built of brick and stone alone. It contained one bundled rooms, almost all of which were, as far as can be learned, occupied by families or individual laboring men and rail way employes at the time the tiro started. The ground lloor was occupied by W. A. Lovelace's barber shop; Ed ward T. Summers' drug store; Cen tral Avenue Gas Fixture Company; Mrs. Belle Wagner, restaurant; the Smith-Overall Laundry, and the Labor Itecord. Cause of F'irc Unknown. The tire broke out on the ground i lloor from some unknown cause at 12:;;0 o'clock. Isolated tis it was.j the burning building was difficult ofl access and it was some time before j the fire department reached the; scene. Several companies were at a lire in another part of the city. When the firemen arrived, the en tire building was in flames. So quickly did the flames spread that r when a few minutes after the hro was discovered, ail means of escape by the stairways, for tho scores of occupants, was shut off. On two sides of the building the elevated railway tracks hemmed it in, and made still harder the work of tho firemen. Then another obstacle arose. The tircmen did not have sufficient ladders and many ot those they had wore too short to reach the upper stories. A stilling smoke filled the building, evidently coming front the burning stocks of merchan dise on the floor below and some ot the occupants probably wore never able to leave their rooms. Many men were found hanging from win dow sills on the uper floors and frantic women with babies In their arms and children clinging to them leaning far out of the windows, un able to find any means of escape and yet taking advantage of the little fresh air which the windows afford ed. The firemen qmciuy ran men ladders up, but they did not reach above the third lloor. Many persons were on tho floor above. Women Pitched to Safety. The firemen first devoted them selves to the people on uiu seconu and third floors and did not then heed the screams of the people above. Many ot tue persons ui tu interior of the building were al ready overcome by the dense smoke, and had to be carried out by the firemen. But many were able to es cape, down the ladders without as sistance. After getting every one they could Had out of the second and third flors, the firemen turned their attention to the people above. As the ladders did not reach above the third lloor, the men on the fourth floor, literally pitched their wives and children down to the tire men jon the ladders and then jumped down themselves. Some of the move excitable ones jumped to the ground and were either killed or badly in jured. Some whom the firemen tried to catch, fell the entire dis tance to the ground. Frank Dtter, a mail clerk, jumped from the fourth floor and caught hold of a ladder, two stories below. Although he saved himself ho broke all of the fingers on both hands. Jesse Ford, Carrying his wife in his arms, climbed out of the fourth (Continued on Page Seven.) THIRD DAY OF HOOFS TRIAL FOR PERJURY (By the Associated Press.) Pittsburg, Pa., Oct. 26.

(By the Associated Press.) Washington, Oet. 25. Army medical officers who have had much experience hi Cuba are watching with some anx iety the progress of yellow fever In the island. The principal cause for apprehension Is found in the fac t that the appearance of lb" disease at several widely sepa rated points is an evidence that it has gotten away from the medical depart ment in Havana, for past experience shows that al preceding outbreaks of yellow fever throughout the island could be traced directly to the capital. Another disquieting fact Is that the disease, beginning with one or two cases last summer, is slowly but ap parently steadily increasing In the number of cases, although It has been the rule that the fever markedly di minishes in steady ratio during Septem ber, October and November. However, the army surgeons here do not fear a general epidemic but do be lieve that it will take much hard work, time and money to put Havana in thorough sanitary condition and stamp out the remaining cases of fever.

FOR THE M'lVER BRONZE STATUE Contributions From Dr. Mc- Iver's Classmates A STIMULUS TO OTHERS There Were Thirty-Two Members of the Class Appeal Issued By State Superintendent Joyner to the 7,005 Public School Teachers in the State Every One Vrged to Contribute. Voluntary contributions for the he roic bronze statue to the memory of Dr. Charles D. Mclver, late president and founder of the State Normal and Industrial College continue to come in to the Stab- Superintendent of Public Instruction J. Y. Joyner, treasurer of the fund, In gratifyingly large amounts. President Veiiable of the State Uni versity today sent In a batch of checks from members of Dr. Mclver's Univer sity c lass of 1SS1, who now reside out of the state. One was from Judge R. B. Albcrlson of Seattle, Washington, for $50; another from Dr. R. P. Pell, president of Converse College, South Carolina, for $10; and another from Dr. L. L. Mial of New York, a former Wake county boy, for $25. Superintendent Joyner was himself a member of the ISSI class and he says these contributions ought and doubt less Will stimulate every member of the class residing in this state to send in liberal contributions to the fund. There Were thirty-two members of the class. State Superintendent Joyner today mailed to every one of the 7,005 public school teachers of the state a special appeal for contributions to the fund. In the course of the letter he declares that Dr. Melver literally spent himself for the cause of the teacher, and that r.ij man has done so much for the amelioration of the conditions ur rounding the teacher. He declares that it would be therefore unseemly, un grateful and unwise for the teachers of North Carolina not to have a large part in contributions to the fund for this lasting memorial to this great teacher and citizen. He dec lares that he knows the soul of Dr. Charles D. Mclver would be more moved by the contribu tions from the meagre earnings of his co-laborers than from those received from any other source. State Superintendent Joyner's letter 111 full Is as follows: "To the Teachers of North Carolina: "A movement has been started for the erec tion of an heroic bronze statue to the memory of Dr. Charles D. Mc lver, our friend and co-laborer, who has been so suddenly called to his re ward at the meridian of his life of use fulnes and service. He gave his life to the cause for which we teachers are giving ours. He literally spent him self for us and our c ause. No man of this generation of North Carolinians has done so much to ameliorate condi tions surrounding the teacher, to dig nify and elevate the teacher's work, in bring the public to an appreciation of its value and importance, and to In crease the teacher's salary. He was perhaps the ablest, most successful champion of our cause, and certainly none has been more unselfish. Time and time again he sacrificed his own financial interest to remain in our pro fession and advocate our cause. He was faithful unto death. We honor ourselves In honoring those who serve us. We inspire posterity to emulate their example and to magnify our call ing by expressing in lasting and visible form our gratitude and our love to those Ii would seem to me, therefore, Unseemly, ungrateful, and unwise If the teachers of North Carolina should not have a large part in the contribu tion of the funds for the erection of a lasting memorial to this great teacher and citizen. If the souls of the depart ed are cognizant of happenings on earth and responsive to the same dlvlnp emo tions that men feel here. I know that the soul of Charles D. Melver would be more moved by the contributions to this fund from the meagre earnings ot his co-laborers than from those receiv ed from any other source. "Believing that the teachers of North Carolina appreciate the work of this great teacher and hold him in grateful remembrance, 1 appeal to them to bear their pan in the raising of this fund, in full confidence that every tenchcr will deem it a privilege and a pleasure to contribute as liberally as salary and financial conditions will Justify. There are 7.005 white teachers in North Caro lina. Let no teacher, therefore, fall to contribute because unable to make a large contribution, for even , a small contribution from every one of so large a number will amount to much in the aggregate. Please respond promptly, for every effort will be made to raise the funds for the statue at qoco. "Please send ull contributions by . posfofflcc order, if posihle, to J. Y Joy I her, Raleigh, N. C. Write name and I postoffiee address plainly, so that ac knowledgement of the receipt of your I contribution may be made."
