DISlRiBIITING A FEW DOLLARS Non-Unio- n Man Attempted to Take an Automobile Out and .Was. Roughly Handled. New York. Oct. 23. Three hundred chauffeurs employed by tbe New York Transportation company, which operates 350 public electric can, went on strike today for an increase lu wages. As a result nearly all the cabs remained in the big garage at Fiftieth street and Eighth avenue today. The men declared that they are compelled to report for work at tba garage every morning at 7 o'clock and some days they are not given any work at all. They are paid at the rate s of sixteen and cento an huur for what time they work. They demand for the chauffeurs of the ordinary electric machines e uniform wage of $2 fur a twelve-hou-r day. Another of the grievances Is the coat of uniform they are compelled to wear. When 'the vehicles are 'hired to private families, the men demand $2.50 per day Instead of 12.31. the amount they are now receiving. A man, who attempted to take one of the eleetrlc vehicles from the garage, was set on by a crowd of strikers and dragged from Ms seat. He was being roughly handled when he drew a revolver and fired into the crowd. No one waa hit. A Mg force of policemen, wrho had been summoned when the trouble begat, arrived Juat after tbe shot was fired. They charged the crowd and made two s. two-third- TO SERVANTS MRS.

The Chamber of Commerce building waa situated at Park and Central si re els, in tha River View district at Kansas City, Kans. It was at a junction ot the elevated railways, two blocks west of the Kaw river aud a mile southeast' uf what is now the business district of Kansas City, Kansas. It wa erecied fifteen year ago at a coat of $85,000 to be used aa a board of trade. Tbe city grew away from it. however, and it was never naed for its original purpose but for many years had been occupied as aa apartment house. The structure yraa four stories In height, with a deep basement, and faced two streets. It was bulk of .brick and stood alone. Tha (round floor waa occupied by W. A. Lovelace'S barber shop. Edward T. Bummer's drug store. Central Avenae Gas Fixture company, Mrs. Belle Wagner's restaurant. The Smith Overall Laundry and the Labor Record. The fire- broke out on he ground floor from aurne unknown cause. Isolated ae it was, the- - burning building waa difficult of access and it wa some time before the fire department reached the scene. Several companies were at a fire ia another part of tha city. When the firemen arrived the entire building was In flames. 09 quickly did the flames spread that within a few minutes after the lira was discovered all means of escape by the stairway for the scores of occupant was shut off. On two sides of the building the elevated railway tracks hemmed it in and mads atUl harder .work for the fireman. Then another obstacle arose. The firemen did not have sufficient ladders and many of those they had were too short to reach tha upper stories, A Buffo eating smoke fllU-- tbe building, evidently coming from the burn lug stocks of merchandise on the floor below and some of tha occupants probably were never able to leave their rooms. When the firemen arrived they saw men hanging from window sills on tha upper floors and frantic women with babies in their arms and children dinging to them leaning far out from the windows to find any mean of escape and yet taking advantage of the little fresh air which tha windows afforded. The firemen quickly ran their ladders up but they did not reach above the third floor. Many persona were on the floor above. The firemen first devoted themselves to the people on tbe eeeond end third floors end did not then heed the creams of the people above. Many of tha persona In the Interim: of the building were already overcome by the dense amoke and had to be carried out by the firemen. But many were able to escape down the ladders without assistance. After getting ou( every one they oould find on the second and third floors, tha firemen turned their attention to the people above. A the ladders did not reach above the third floor, the men on the fourth floor literally pitched their wire and children down to the firemen on the ladders and then Jumped themselves. Borne of the more excitable once Jumped, to the - ground and were either killed or badly Injured. Some, whom the firemen tried to catch, foil the entire distance to the ground.
