Y., July :lL—The thriving village of Seneca Falls, the chief lawn of Seneca county, was visiwd by a moat din- astroua condemnation Wednesday, and the aggregate losses will foot up about '1 .000.- am. The fire. started in the Pew building. against the erection of which three or four year! ago an earnest protest was made on the ground that it was a tire trap, and such it proved itself. In less than fifteen min- utes the entire Pew block was one mass of llama. ' The tire quickly spread to the ad intent buildings, and before the arrival of the tire department seven stores were com- pletely enveloped by the tlumes and the tire was beyond human control. The lire- nien responded quickly and worked nobly, but for a time it. looked as it their effort. would be utmvniling. The Burned District. There was qu‘te a strong breeze blowing from the southwest. and the flames soon leaped into the lloag house and the Opera house block. About 5 p. m. the tiremeu obtained control of the fire. but not until the flames had licked up every inflammable thing in that district. The burned bulld- ings were the handsomest in the village and included the Plural: block, contain- inglllc “Mother.

In one of the large newer paper hulldinga, he said, ninety editors, reporters and competitors were enumer’ ated as tenants and then again enumer- ated at their residences. In one block where twenty-nix families were reported to be living fifteen of that number were put. down as having ten members each, which exactly filled up the census school. ule. There were other circumstances which were sufficient to convince Mr. Porter as well as Secretary Noble that the entire enumeration was minted with fraud.
