NEW HAVEN, CT, November -
The extensive rubber factory of l. Con-
dee i Co. WAS burned tonight. The
fire broke out while prominent officials
OF the New Haven anu NOrwslk fire de-
partments were going over the building
inspecting the new fire extingulshers
which had been recently put in. The
fire spread SO rapidly that they hardly
mad time to get out. The fire extln
guishers and other appliances were OF
no avail The very combustble nsture
of the contents OF the building
caused the flames to progress rapidly
and the efforts of the fire department
could OIL ly save the adjoining buildings.
Fortunately the majority OF 800 employees
were not at work, fifty girls having left
at P. NJ. for lack of work. The fire
started in the cementing room. Some
cement IN the room IN use by those work
ing WAS ignited by gas jet and in an
instant the whole room was in flames.
A bout three hundred men were ri work,
and some who were IN the third story
could get out only by dropping, and
those who dropped down were the only
ones hurt SO far as known although it is
feared some were burned with the build.
lnS. The following were Injured: G. b.
Galley, five fractures in the legs and
breast; A. q. Cowle, badly hurt in the
back; L. w. Ensign, jr, internal inju-
ries and back probably broken; S. Tib-
belts, head badly hurt. The works we're
mostly of brick and covered three acres
of ground. The loss is shout 500, 900.
The company will rebuild at once, and in
the meantime hire other buildings. The
total insurance is S325,O 600, of which
100000 is placed in New York sger-
cies and the remainder mostly in foreign

PARKERSBURG AND CHARLES
TON RAILROAD.

The Rosne county appeal urges the
building of this road through that county
instead OF through jackson, rs at hrst
proposed. We believe the people Of
jackson consider that they have patent
on this road, as BISHOP OF the Herald
was the original sgitstor of the question
of building it. But our friend of the Ap-
peal makes good showing for his route.
We shall now look for q brisk fire from
the Herald:
Now, the most practicable route tor
the road, and over which we are satisfied
our friends of the State Journal and
Charleston Courier will say it can be
built at the least expense, and be OF the
greatest advantage 10 the entire people
of this section of our State, Is com.
menced at Parkersburg; thence up the
valley OF the Little Ksnswhs to the
mouth of Spring creek, tributary of
the same; thence up Spring
creek by way OF Spencer; thence on
to the lett hand fork of said stream; at
this point, by making a deep cut, you
psss through on TO the Flat Fsrk OF Po-
catalico river; thence down same and
cross Pocatalico at the mouth OF Green
creek; thence up right fork Ct same to
the head; here you pass through tunnel
and strike the waters of Little Sandy, u
tributary of Elk; thence down same To
mouth; thence down Elk and into West
Charleston.
Much more than we have said might
be offered in favor of this route; but our
space Is limited, and we content ourselt
by giving this short sketch. The route
We have described is, in our opinion,
much more practicable, and ut least
twelve miles shorter than the route pro-
posed by our friend OF the Herald.
Build the road on this lire, and you run
it through section of country tuii OF
timber, coal, and other minerals, which
are only waiting for the development
that will Immediately follow railroad.
In conclusion we would ssytha Roane
county Is as able, and We believe rs will
ing TO contribute TO an enterprise OF this
kind as any county in the State. Almost
every interest she has demands some
thing of this kind. There is not an in
terror county III the State that ships more
stock than Roane; there is not county
in the State whose citizens, rs a rule, are
better to do or more enterprising than
ours, or people more wiling to help
themselves, when given chance.
Build the road on the route we pro-
pose, and you will thus connect, by a
direct route, two OF the great railroads OF
the couatry-the Baltimore & Ohio and
the Chesapeake & Ohio, and open up 8
vast territory which will soon FULLY pay
sll expense OF constructing the road.

POLITICS.

The financial questions are the leading
feature in local politics here as elsewhere.
[ Judge that the tenor OF public sentl.
ment is with the hard money party 1t
would be unlike Baltimore to be other
wise. She wants solid basis for every
thing. If green backs were at premium
over gold, she would prefer the gold,
simply for the reason that when you take
it between your finger and thumb it has
solid feeling about it.
There is just now considerable interest
felt as to the action the Senate will take
in the case OF Thomas, whom the Presi-
dent has nominated for collector OF this
port. There is a good deal OF feeling and
lighting over this position, simply be-
cause it Is the only political morSel the
Republicans have to quarrel about IN
Baltimore.

BUSINESS

in Baltimore is conducted on a conservs-
tive basis. The leading business men are
of the mos. substantial sort. There are
few failures of business houses, fewer OF
banks, and no embezz !ements Of poor
peoples money IN savings institutions.
Such II community is always last to feel
the effect OF general business depression,
but. naturally, very slow to rally from 1t
when it does come. There are still very
decided evidences of the hard times on
the streets and in the business houses OF
