says
The "diabolical attempt TO blow up the
powder magazine at Point Breeze, as pub.
Hsheo IN morning paper yesterday, owed it's
origin 10 tnese facts: That on tho Wednesday
nigh; previous 10 the Sunday night when our
city was alarmed by report that the town
was 10 be fired, large barn, located within a
short distance OF the magazine, was visited hv
3 thief, who, in order to see his way, strnck q
match, which, while lighted, was throrun or
the barn floor The fame was Communicated
10 some combustble material ON the floor hnt
IN a few minutes burned itself out withont
doing any damage.
The next morning traces of the fire Were dis.
covered, and the officers whose duty it was to
investigate the matter were decided In their
opinion that, had the intention been TO fire the
place, the torch would have been applied di-
rect 10 the hay and straw, OF which there was
a large quantity, and not on the floor near the
door. The fire occurring near the door, con-
WINGED the officers that the design Of the party
was plumber, as Immediately upon entering the
building ne struck a light TO see his way. This
accident, however, might have resulted in the
bnrning OF the barn, In which case the maya.
zine would have been in great danger.
