Staub, pipeman la engine company No. 14, was almost instantly killed by a falling wall during a dis astrous Are at the Mlchlgan-ave. car barns of the Detroit United railway shortly before 12 o’clock Tuesday night. Two other pipemen in the same company, William Waterloo and Harry Shannon, were painfully in jured and were removed to Grace hos pital. Waterloo was badly cut and bruised about the head by falling bricks, and may have sustained _a slight fracture of the Bkull. Shannon’s left leg was broken in two places. The Are, which is supposed to have originated from an overheated stove in one of the cars housed in the build ing, was one of the most stubborn the department has had to fight in some time. The dames gained rapta head way owing to unavoidable delay in get ting a line of hose to the barns ami three alarms were turned in wtthln a few moments of one another. General Manager F. W. Brooks estimates tho total damuge at SIOO,OOO, covered by in surance. This includes 17 practically new double-truck cars. Stuab and his companions were standing near the eastern wall of the building, directing streams of water into what seemed to be the heart of the fire when, without warning, the wall gave way and came toppling down on their heads. Staub, who was nearest, was buried under three feet of debris. Patrolman Frank Briggs, Collins and Carl went to the rescue and within a few moments extricated Stuab, but he died immediately after wards. The body was removed to the home of F. J. Shaw, a motorman, at No. 129."> Milltary-ave., and Gus Staub, of en gine company No. 3, a brother of the dead hero, was notified. The latter, who haH himself figured In a number of accidents, broke down completely as he knelt beside the body. Coroner Parker Is investigating the accident. Staub was 24 years old, unmarried, and had been in the department two years. His parents live at No. 1079 Scotten-ave., and besides them he leaves three brothers, Gus. Frank and Joseph. Joseph Staub is with Admiral Evans’ Pacific fleet. General Manager Brooks stated Wednesday that the cause of the fire will be thoroughly Investigated by the company to determine where the re sponsibility lies. It was at first report ed that defective wiring caused the blaze, but Mr. Brooks says there is reason to believe that It had Its or igin In a car roof near a stovepipe. CITY HALL DEMOCRATS ABSENT FROM MEETING Direct legislation as a state Demo cratic Issue will be pushed by the new Wayne County Democratic club, or ganized Tuesday evening in the Cadil lac. George William Moore, an inti mate friend of National Committee man D. J. Campau, was elected presi dent; Charles Hampton, secretary, end John Naylon, treasurer. Campau came again into the limelight by the reading of a telegram from Thomas P. Gore, the blind senator from Oklaho ma. accepting the national commit tee’s invitation to speak here early in March. Among those selected as members of the executive committee are W. C. Maybury, E. J. Jeffries, Dr. E. B. Smith, Ralph Phelps. T. F. Halloran, W. Brotherton, C. L. Lewis, Ben Stou der and F. F. Ingram. It is hardly necessary to state that neither Mayor Thompson, Judge Con nolly, Frank Doremus nor any other leader of the city hall Democracy was present, although P. J. M. Hally was placed on the executive committee In his absence. Fire Underwriters' Banquet. The sudden puff of a flash-light with its accompanying cloud of smoke fail ed to disturb the members of the Fire Underwriters’ club, who to the num ber of nearly a hundred sat about the banquet table in the Hotel Tuller Tues day night. The usual thrill accompany ing Are and smoke did not come be cause no one had a risk on the flash light. William A. Eldredge presided and announced that all the speakers had been prepared fully, which caused Homer McGraw, the first talker, to use a very short word. Leo K. Hennes sang well and Harmon Vernor told a funny story and several others. E. T. Chapman, Michigan Inspection bureau, called for more statistics and many of the other members spoke. Two Pianists Give Recital. I-ewis Richards, a talented young pianist, recently returned to this city after several years of foreign study, gave a recital Tuesday evening in the Church of Our Father, under the aus pices of the Ganapol Music studios. The young man plays with virility and authority, presenting a well arranged program. Another young pianist made hls premiere appearance last even ing, Nathan Fryer, of New York, pre senting an excellent program in Con servatory hall, under the auspices of the Detroit Conservatory of Music. He is a musician of exceptional ability. Source of Hit Wealth. "Rich, isn’t he?" "Fabulously.” "Where did he got It?"

In the Hotel Cadillac Tuesday night, former Judge Robert E. Frazer jokingly blamed the “ad writers for the flnancfhl stringency, because the catchy “ads” make peo ple buy things they don’t need. E. St. Elmo Lewis, former president of the club, proposed a water carnival for Detroit next summer, and suggested the holding of four buyers’ excursions each year instead of one. These pro posals were looked upon favorably and committees were appointed to mnke arrangements for bringing the matter before the public. CAMPBELL EXPLAINS NEW CONSTITUTION That the people of Michigan will have ample time and opportunity to study the new state constitution, be fore voting on it, was brought out by Henry M. ,Campbell in his discussion of the new constitution at the mem bership luncheon of the Board of Commerce, Tuesday. Every house holder will be sent an address in which the old and new documents are printed and the differences shown. The vote will occur next fall. Ninety per cent of the delegates were In favor of liquor regulation, in Mr. Campbell’s judgment, but they distrusted absolute prohibition. Wo man’s suffrage was also supported by many and in the new draft tax-paying women are given a vote on bond Is sues. Among the changes enumerated by Mr. Campbell are: The right of cities to make their own charters, the five day provision preventing snap legis lation, and the other provisions limit ing the power of the legislature In lo cal bills; elimination of the state cen sus; better pay for legislators, and the possibility of municipalities ac quiring pubMc utilities. It would have been better to make the provision for the issuance of bonds depend on a two-thirds vote of the electors, rather than a majority vote of the taxpayers, according to Mr. Campbell, but this was a,compromlse.

A large gathering of Detroit’s rep-*' resentatlve women atteuded the re ception given by Mrs. Grace Whitney Hoff in the Young Women’s Christian association Tuesday afternoon from 4 to o’clock. Following the recep tion, the ladies assembled in the main auditorium, where a program was given by Miss Dodge, of Paris, France, a soprano soloist, who is the guest of Mrs. Hoff. Miss Dodge has a beautiful voice, clear and pure, and sang a Hungarian folk song, -Who Is Sylvia?” and Gounod’s "Ave Marla,” responding to an encore with "Flow Gently, Sweet Alton.” Mrs. Hoff then announced to the ladles that she was anxious that every one present take an active Interest In the young women of the city, through the Y. W. C. A., and looking to that end had cards distributed, by which the ladies pledged themselves to give their moral and financial support to the cause. “From the labor bureau we find that there are 85,000 young women In De troit employed in industrial pursuits,” said Mrs. HofT. "In the factories there are 23,000 young women work ing, many of whom need your sym pathy and assistance. Is It worth while to live for the young women of the world? They are going to be the home-makers of the city and they need your sympathy, for the greatest happiness a woman can have is the sympathy of her friends.” The Young Women’s Christian asso ciation. Mrs. Hoff said, stands for three things—To show us our duty towards others; to share our blessings with one another, and to serve one an other. Every woman In the audience signed the pledge card. Mrs. Hoff has been attending noon day meetings during the week in the various factories of the city where young women are employed. Thursday evening she will attend the annual supper and meeting of the Y. W. C. A., and Sunday afternoon will address a mass meeting for women ir. the Woodward-ave. Baptist church. All women are invited to attend the latter meeting.

WHOSE HEADQUARTERS ARE AT HOTEL STATLBR. J BUFFALO, Fob. 12.—(SpeclaL)-* William Jennings Bryan arrived IB Buffalo at 12:16 today and from tha time of hi* Arrival until he stretched himself out to rest In hts apartments at the Hotel guttler, every moment 1 wan full. From the train he went directly to the Twentieth Century to attend a luncheon given to him by Mrs. Nor man K. Mack. After a brief addreae at this function he was hurried to thd auditorium of the Y. M. C. A., where he wua met by the Buffalo clergy and addressed them on the topic, “Prinoo of peace." From there he was driven to the Hotel Statler, where a special reception was held in his own apart ments, to the Democratic leaders. 4 At S p. m. a more general recep-" tlon to the various committeemen au* their friends will be held at the Hotsf Statler, and at 6 o’clock a buffet luncheon will be given the party at the same hotel. A mass meeting at convention hall, an address there, a. .call at the Saturn and Buffalo clubC* at both places accompanied by a shortfl address, wIH bring Mr. Bryan to the, close of a day a* strenuous at those of President Roosevelt. At the hotel, Mr. Bryan wag kM signed to the Jeffersonian suite rooms, and his apartments are of mor 4, than pasMlng Interest. The rooms furnished with a reproduction of Vhei furniture used in the apartmepU ofj that other distinguished commoaer and disciple of ulmpUc'.cy—Thoma* Jefferson. It Is said that the original 1 suite from which these furnishings’! were copied, sold for $7,000. No dotlbM Mr. Bryan found himself In fully a* a handsome a room and possibly more restful than that occupied by the or iginal commoner, who owned the 01 Iginal of the furniture. t Mr. Bryan will speak In Mich., Friday, and will leave Buffalo for the west, tomorrow. Mayor Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland, also arrived here this morning. Mr., Johnson will speak tonight In conven tion hall. NATURALIZATION INSPECTOR HAS WOES» Naturalisation Inspector 8. 3. Oal- Iher, who has Just returned from the Thumb, finds that the life of a federal employe is not always fun. He wa»* recently sent to Oscoda county to, look over a bunch of would-be cltlienn. It was necessary to drive 16 miles with the circuit Judge to the town of Mio. and they were caught In a blind ing snowstorm and lost their way ser* oral times. Reaching their destination.' very much weather-beaten, they hifl to remain over two days until the storm had abated and the roada were practicable. Since the establishment of the naturalisation bureau in Detroit, Houghton county has made the big gest record for number of applications for cltlsenship, the number there be ing as great as for the cities of De troit. and Cincinnati combined.

Rounds stepped aside Just in time to avoid being struck. The man who flrod the shot fled. J Rounds' wife told the police that* she recognized the fleeing figure as* Jack Delaney, who. she said, had* threatened to kill her because she had' refused to have anything further in'* do with him.
