Places to Battle \Vith a Big Con-
flagration pEarly This Morning——
Flames in. Brockton’s Shoe Dis-
trict—«Bath. Me, Suffers Big Loss. _
LYNN, Mass, Jan. Sit—Fire broke out
in the Osborne block, Market square, at
11:45 o’clock last night and an alarm was
pulled, followed at 12:10 by a second
alarm. The block was a triangular one
and comprised the XVest Lynn hotel,
\Vellman Osborne’s shoe store and Ware-
houses and several small one-story stores
between. The entire block was of wood,
was an old structure and at an early
hour was seen to be doomed. The fire is
supposed to have caught from VVellman
Osborne’s furnace in the cellar. The Os-
borne store house contained a stock esti<
mated to be worth $50,000. In the shoe
store, in front, the stock was valued at
$10,000. .
The occupants of the hotel worswarned
by the smoke which poured in volumes
into their rooms and theyesoapedthrough
windows. ' .1;
At 1:45 the fire had got beyond the con—
trol of the local fire department, and
assistance was asked for from surround-
ing cities and towns.”
Next door to Osborne’s was the New
York pork store, whose loss is $3,000. E.
S. Kennelly, confectioner, sustains a loss
of $3,000, and Andrew J. \Velch, station—
ery and tobacco, $1,503. The. ’West Lynn
hotel carries an insurance of $2,500, which
will about cover the less. Jonathan El-
dredge, dry goods dealer, loses $3,000, and
A. O. Caproni, iruit dealer, $50.).
Johnson’s'Chicag-o beef market, in the
basetnent‘of ti 9 'West Lynn hotel, carried
a stock worth $2,000, which is a total loss.
John Conden, barber, in the \Vest Lynn
hotel, and 'Wiley’s plumbing store in the
haszmcnt, sustain a loss of $1,000 each.
'lhe Osborne block, which is a total loss,
was valued at $25,000.
At 2 a. In. the fire still burned furiously
and the firemen did not make. any head—
way.
.At 4 o’clock the wind had abated some—
what and it was believed that the fire was
under control and that not much more
damage would result from the flames.
All this morning engines were pouring
water into the smouldering ruins.
Bath‘s Big Fire.
BATH, Mel, Jan. 30.——The worst fire Bath
has known since she became a city visited
her Sunday morning, and the heart of the
business section lies in ruins. Brick and
granite blocks went down like cardboard
before the flames, and only when
Lewiston, Portland and Brunswick con-
tributed men and engines was the Gorilla.
gration stayed. Estimates of the loss
may be made, but they can be little bet~
ter than guesswork, yet the total closely
approaches halt a million. A defective
chimney in the stable office of the Saga-
daheo house started the fire.
“Then the firemen arrived at the scene
they found the hydrants empty. The
size of the fire was at once apparent, and
Portland, Lewiston and Brunswick sent
special trains with help. Four steamers
were stationed at the city landing and at
the railway wharf, and took water from '
the river. Snow was carried in buckets
and fused; to prevent the fire from
spreading. An attempt was made to blow
up the corner block oppOSite the Sagada—
hee house and thus check the flames, but
before arrangements could be completed
the block was in flames. A (leSpatch was
sent to Governor Cleaves, at Portland,
asking that the Pyle light guard be or-
dered out to keep the fire lines and pro-
tect the property. Permission was im-
mediately given and the state soldiers
vere on duty all night in the burned
district. 7 '
Fire Fright at Lowell.
LOWELL, Mass, Jan. 30.-—Thc 130:: Ma-
rone building, one of the largest in the
city, caught fire. last evening . and
for some time the worst results
were feared. “Then the fire department
arrived several of the tenants were ready
to jump from the upper stories, but they
were quieted, until the firemen rescued
them. The loss will amount to several
thousand dollars. Ahigh wind prevail-
ing at the time caused grave apprehen-
sions.
Dangerous Fire at Brockton.
BROCKTON, Mass, Jan. 30.——During the
high gale of last night a. fire alarm sounded
from Monticello and Church streets, the
centre of the large wooden buildings 0c-
cupied as shoe factories. Every engine in
the city responded. The fire was in a
building occupied by the Reanolds shoe
factory and a machine shop. Although
great alarm prevailed, the firemen suc-
ceeded in confining the flames to the
building in which it started.
Newport Flooded.
NEWPORT, R. 1., Jan. 30.—-Newport was
apparently the storm centre on Saturday.
The streets are not yet open for travel,
and only half of the electric road is in
operation, but the worst is to come as
there are high drifts in every yard and
the gutters are filled above the clearing
point. It rained hard all night and much
damage will necessarily result. In many
portions of the city it is expected that the
first floors will be afloat, it the rain con-
tinues.
A. P. A.’s Unusual Demand.
KANSAS CITY, Mo., J an. 30,—A commit-
tee of the A. P. A. called on the demo-
cratic city committe and made a formal
demand that no Catholics be allowed
places on the city ticket at the election
this spring. The committee took the
matter under consideration, but no one
believes that it will accede to the
demand. A similar demand is to be made
on the republicans. '

SENATE AFTER INFORMATION.
Circulars of Inquiry Sent to People
Interested in Tariff Legislation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.——\Vhen the sen-
ate committee on finance meets Mr. Voor-
hees, its chairman, 'wiill be able to make a
satisfactory report relative to the work
being done preparatory to the active con-
sideration of the tariff bill when it
reaches the senate. Several weeks ago
the. committee decided to send through-
out the cOuntry circular letters of inquiry,
it being hoped that by this means much
valuable information would be received
and the need for prolonged verbal hear-
ings lessened. Letters were addressed to
manufacturers, importers, merchants, la-
bor organizations of workingmen, agri‘
‘culturalists, to newspapers, collectors of
customs, mayors of cities, and the. score-
tarics of various boards of trade and
chambers of commerce, propounding a
series of questions with the end in view of
gathering all the conflicting views on the
tariii‘ subject and from the standpoint of
the men interested in various industries.
A force of about twenty clerks has been
kept busy for some weeks preparing these
circulars for distribution, and it is
thought at least one million will be sent
out. Up to now the mails have'carried
100,000 circulars. and by the time the
IVilson bill reaches the senate not less
than 400,000 will have gone out. Answers
are beginning to come back already. The
committee is also preparing a. compara-
tive statement showing the changes made
by the Vilson bill in the McKinley act,
both in regard to the text of the bill and
the rates of duty. It will also indicate
the changes made in the paragraphs and
in the text of the administrative feature
of the law. The intent of the committee
will not even stop at this point, for, as
soon as the bill passes the house, it will
be printed in pamphlet form, with each
paragraph annotated under it the amount
imported of the articles contained in the
paragraph, their value, amount of duty
collected, and the equivalent of the ad
valorem rate for the specific duty, all this
information, including statistics, cover-
ing the last four years. It will be thus
seen that the committee proposes giving
the widest- pcssible publicity to the whole
tariff question, and will by virtue of that
act secure in return the views of those in~
terested in all parts of the country.
The Midwinter Fair.
SAN FRANCISCO, 0-11., J an. fill—Splendid
weather continues and the mldwinter
fair draws huge crowds. Saturday’s
paid admissions were 72,540 and $30,270
was taken in at the gates. The San
Francisco newspapers made a magnificent
spread on the event. The city continues
to wear its gala appearance and all its in-
habitants were out at the park. As with
all expositions, the work of installation
has dragged considerably and the fair
will not be completely ready for at least
a month. However, all the amusement
features are running full blast. There
are no exorbitant prices charged on the
grounds and the expoeition seems destined
to become a place of the greatest popular
amusement. '
Officers Break Up 1:. Prize Fight.
NEW YORK, Jan. Sill—Fully 33,000 sports
travelled through rain, snow and slush
last night to Ridgcwood park, in a suburb
of Brooklyn, to see the fight between Billy
Ernst, of Brooklyn, and Billy Vernon, of
Haverstraw. Just before the time an—
nounced for the fight to begin, the sheriff,
with a. big squad of deputies with drawn
clubs and revolvers, swooped dOWn upon
the crowd and there was a grand scram-
ble to get away. Several went through
windows, thaking sash and all, and one
of the fighters ran out through the snow
and slush in his bare feet. No arrests
were made as there was no fight.
Locke and Lightning.
BUFFALO, Jan. 30.—Fra.nk1in D. Locke,
who was mentioned in a. despatch from
Washington as a probable nominee for
supreme court justice in the event of fail-
ure to confirm the nomination of V'i'heeler
H. Peckhum, was asked if he had any in-
timation that his name would be sent to
the senate. Mr. Locke replied that he
had no information beyond what he had
seen in the newspapers, and added that
there was about as much danger of his
being nominated for. the position as of his
being struck by lightning.
Boxing Prohibited in Queens.
LONG ISLAND CITY, L. 1., Jan. 30.——Box~

iNO MOTIVE YEl fKNOWN.
The Outrage at Our Lega-
tion in Rome 8. Mystery.
Blinister Potter Says No Valuable
Documents \Vere Destroyed—The
Offices Present. a Scene of Ruin—
F‘irc Started in Every Room But
One—nl’uliec Officials Baffled.
ROME, Jan. 30.——’l‘he daring attempt to
burn and loot the United States legation
in this city is being? carefully investigated
by the officials and it is plain to be seen
that the matter is greatly worrying them.
All the newepapers comment on the
outrage. They agree that it is difficult to
imagine what could have been the incen-
diary’s motive. The Tribune recalls that
a. small bomb was recently found near
Minister Potter’s residence, but disclaims
all knowledge of connection betWeen that
discovery and the latest outrage.
The police are severely criticized for
their lack of vigilance in the neighbor-
hood of the legation. The police official
who is in charge of the investigation said
to the. United Press .
“Doubtlcss the persons who set fire to the
theft. It is surprising that they respected
everything except the documents.” ,_
The official said that after hours of the
most minute research he was still in‘
doubt as to the motive of the ingendiaiy
or incendiaries._ Mr. Potter and the
American consul could not throw any
light whatever on the source of the crime
nor understand why anybody-'_should be
interested in the destruction of the ar—
chives. . .
The press takes advantage of the occa—
sion to make very friendly remarks con—
cerning the legation and the American
ministers who have Occupied it.
It is now learned that the locks Were
not forced, but Opened by ‘, parties having
knowledge of locksmithing or with skele
ton keys. The thieves, hOwever, broke
open the safe. and desks and set fire
to the furniture as, well as to the
papers they found. .. A number of
the archives were completely destroyed
and others partially burned. The outrage
is supposed to have been perpetrated at
about midnight. The representative in
this city of the United Press visited the
legation and found the oifices a. scene of
ruin. In the first large room, where vis—
itors usually wait, only the charred re-
mains of a table and a set of drawers are
lel'i. la the smaller room adjoining, used
by Vice—Consul 'W’ood, there were no
traces of fire, but all the papers of the
vice-consul were strewn in disorder about
the floor. In the room occupied by the
consul-general the woodwork and the
desks were badly scorched and most Of
the archives were in ashes. Some par-
tially burned documents were found lying
scattered about. The offices of Minister
Potter were in a. similar condition, audit
was evident that fire had been applied
everywhere except in the vice~oonbul’s
room. It was obvious that the thieves
had spent several hours undisturbed in
their work of destruction.
Minister Potter states that no valuable
documents were destroyed.

Knights Of Labor Open Their Fight.
Against the Bond Issue.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-General Secre-
tary McGuire of the Knights of Labor,
and on their behalf, has obtained from
the supreme court of the District of Col-
umbia a subpoena addressed to the mar-
shal of the district directing him to serve
the same upon the secretary of the tress-
ury, citing him to appear before the su-
preme court and make answer to the
bill asking for an injunction that was
filed there yesterday. The service of this
process, it is said, is necessary in order
to properly acquire jurisdiction of the
case, and is also necessary, as it gives
notice to all intending purchasers of
the bonds of the existence of this suit,
and if purchased by them they cannot, in
case the bonds are declared to have
been illegally issued, claim to be inno-
cent purchasers. ' LL". Carllsle is required
to put in an appearance in the case on
the first Tuesday in March next and to
plead or answer before the first Tuesday
in April. Independent of whether Judge
Cox grants, or refuses the injunction
prayed for in the bill filed yesterday, pro-
ceedings underthis su bpoena. will go for-
ward, and in case, Judge Cox’s decision
is adverse to the petitioners an appeal
will eventually be taken to the supreme
court of the, united States. In case an
appeal cannot be taken to the supreme
court of the United States, in time to pre-
vent the issuc of the bonds, the bill will
be amended so as to prevent the payment
of interest thereon.

The Secretary Defends His Action Be-
fore a Meeting of New Y'm'k Bunk-
ers—He is Plied \Vith Questions as
to the Legality of the'Issuc-—Con-
fidcnt the Bonds “'ill Be Sold.
NEW YORK, J an. 30.—-There is no deny-
ing that the enthusiasm of those who
were relied upon to take the $50,000,000
government gold bond issue has been
greatly dampened. The bonds were sub-
scribed for, but subsequently those sub-
scriptions were withdrawn. Everything
appeared all right at first, but the un-
certainty—which has arisen concerning the
power of the secretary of the treasury to
issue such bonds and the discussion in
congress has caused a serious hitch in
proceedings. It was owing to these things
that the secretary came on here to meet
the heads of the national banks and the
_, presidents of the largest trust companies
yesterday afternoon. The meeting (was
behind closed doors at the Office of Sub-
Treasurer Jordan in the sub—treasury.
The fate of the bond issue, it was be-
lieved, rested entirely on the result of the.
meeting. 1.
Question after question was put to the
secretary regarding the legality of the
proposed issue, the secretary expressing
the opinion throughout that the course
he had adopted was in full accordance
with the law, and he intimated that cer—
tain of the New York banks had mani-
fested a disposition to depress the value
of the bonds in order that they might be
secured at a favorable figure by a syndi-
cate. He said the bonds Would be sold
without any trouble and he appeared in-
different as to whether they were disposed
of here or somewhere else.
The conference was of an hour and a
hall’s duration. The talking was done
almost entirely by Secretary Carlisle, who
defended the legality of the issue of the
bonds and fought to impress upon the
bankers the advantages of offering 5 per
cent. bonds on a 3 per cent. basis.
President Frederick D. Tappen, of the
Gallatin National bank, finally said: "Mr.
Secretary, it is the opinion of a majority
of the New York bankers that your pro-
posed issue of bonds will not be a success.
“That will you do if it is not? How much
do the subscriptions now amount to?”
The secretary replied: “I certainly do
not concede that the issue will not be a.
success. I do not look forward to any
such contingency. As to the amount of
the subscriptions I have not changed my
mind with the figures. If the subscrip-
tions run up to $75,000,000 I intend to sell
that many bonds.”
No promises of subscript-ions were made
by the bankers. The secretary took
luncheon at the Lawyers’ club with ex-
secretary of the treasury Charles S. F air-
child, and left for \Vashington at 3:20
o’clock.
Before his departure Secretary Carlisle
took extraordinary precautions to avoid
giving his impressions of the c0nference.
Neither would any of the others present
enter into details of what took place, un-
less with the proviso that they were not
to be quoted. » ,
One of the bank presidents, who was
open at his office in the afternoon, said that
the conference had taken the shape of an
informal talk and that Secretary Car-
lisle had spoken very freely on several
points anent the $50,0000,000 issue of 5 per
cent. ten year government bonds. He
dwelt especially upon the legality Of the
issue, insisting that there was not the
slightest doubt on that point and that
the courts would so hold. As to the reso«
lution introduced in congress with a. view
to having the issue declared illegal, he
expressed the opinion that it would fail
of passage.
“The secretary was assured by many of
those present,” continued this gentleman,
“that it legality of theissue was shown to
be beyond question there would be no
doubt that the entire amount would be
subscribed for unconditionally and at the
upset price right here in New York.”
The only definite information obtain-
able as to the matter of subscriptions to
the issue 1n this city was that the odor of,
$4,000,000 by the American Exchange bank
would stand.
