Destroyed. Neighboring Stores ln Danger but Fire now Under Control.

I-

(S/wcial to The Guardian.) ST _lOl»lN, Dec. 22.-Fire broke

out at ni11e o’clocI< to-night iI1 the big wholesale and retail hardware establishment of W. H. Thorne & tfo.. Ltd., and at the time of writ. ing it looks aslif the \vl1ole building would be destroyed. 'I`l1e fire started on the third floor of tlIe live storey building on Market Square, where the hardware de- partnient is situated. The store was throngcd with Christmas shop- pers, but there was no panic. Later the fire spread to the amniunition and cartridge department and the noise of exploding cartridges was heard several blocks away.

The \Vestern Union Telegraph

t‘ompany building adjoining is in danger, but to now, 11.35 p.m., the flames have been kept from it.

The fire is spreading in the back

of the big stores on King Street a11d has already reached the back of T. .\Ic/\vity 8: Co.`s hardware store. .\Ianchester, Robertson & Allison’s` dry goods establishment, the largest of the kind east of Montreal, is also in danger in some of the depart- IIIeuts iI1 the rear. It is impossible lo estimate the damage at 'l`horne’s

and at this time insurance estimates,

cannot be secured.

1.45 a.n1.-The Thorne :hre is

now under control. The loss is about $150,000; insurance between 0250.000 and $3oo,ooo.

OTTAWA. Doc. 22.-The Liberal

conference concluded yesterday with the announcement that the delegates attending. plus some others. will con- stitute a permanent national advisory council. They will build 9. platform. An official statement issued nt the close of the conference admits that the question of extending the parlia- mentary term wns discussed but "only incidentally."

The' matter.. It is added, “ will bo

left for parliament itself to decide." This is I1ot understood hero as moan- ing that the conference reached no co1Iclus1oI1 upon the main business f'or which it was summoned.

There are indications that the anti-

olection elementin the party is be- coming stronger daily and that the

party leaders will hardly be able to ignore so strong a fac or. This ele- ment 'was represented ln some strength at the conference and its views were placed forcibly on record. A complete volte-face officially set forth ln black and white by the con- fereneo was hardly to be expected in view of Sir Wilfrid Laurier's refusal to accept the govern111cnt's proposal. b\1t it is believod that an extension a.r1'nngcmcnt will he reached when parliament meets and u war election uvoidcd. The Isuggestioii that tho Uanndiall parliament he r-.xtcudod for elglil. months. as ln Euglmni, comes from noilhnr side here. and would 11ot bo acceptable to tho izovurnmonf.

second /\mcrican note to Austria shared tlIe leading positions in late Nc\v York Iicwspapers with reports of Russian successes at V)/a1'IIa, Bul- garia’s chief seaport. The note appeared here too late for extended editorial comment, but the head- lines reflected tl1e general opi11ioI1s. The note was couched in a sharper tone an<l'alI discussion about de- tails was swept aside. No further discussion appears possible. Up to a late hour there was no official confirmation of the report of lius- sian occupation of Varna. which if true is, according to Loudon edi- tors, one of the greatest moves of the present war. The same critics believe that the Russian assault on Varna is a prelude to 11 new effort for COII.staI1_tiI1oplc, whicli is less than 150 miles di.~'iaIIt.
