ZACH CHANDLER AT THE WHITE
HOUSE.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-Of the
harmony that begins to prevail
among certain leading elements in
the Republican party which became
estranged at the beginning Of the
present Administration, the friendly
visit Of Mr. Zach Chandler to the
Pre~idcl to-day, the first in over a
year, affords a striking Illustration.
Mr.. Chandler was cordially receiv-
eel by the President, and enjoyed a
very pIesant interview. What trans
pircd has not been ascertainesl, hut
the qHjd Hu1cS, who are not always
wrong in their surmises, say that the
most important topic discussed was
tar Presidential campaign Of 1880,

friends OF he Administration and

tween them, and satisfactory adjust
ment of existing differences, in order
to avoid any conflict touching the

lions.
GREAT FIRE AT CAPE MAY.
CAPE MAY, n. j., Nov. lO.-The
most disastrous fire that has ever
visited any seaside resort yesterday
laid more than one-half Of the pril-
cipal part of Cape May in ashes. The
flames, famed by a northwest gale,
swept through the central portion of
the city, and as all of the buildings
from the stateliest to the humblest,
are of wood, and the various squares
divided by narrow streets, they fell
an easy prey. The burned district
embraces nearly forty acres of spac-
ious buildings, including ten hotels
and nineteen or twenty cottages, rep
resenting total value of over $780,.
600, and this crisp autumnal morning
the black, unshapely ruins mar sadly
enough all the associations of last
seasons gayetieS and pleasures. The
hnfnlcy in, hn Of q
ton are as follows: The Ocean
House, Congress Hall, Centre House,
Merchants Hotel, Centennial House,
Atlantic House, Knickerb0cker
House, Avenue House, Wyoming
House and Columbia House. On
these and the smaller structures
which shared their fate the Insurance
coyer about half the loss.
