About eight o'clock Wednesday evening a
bright light was seen in the sky, liz the di-
rection of Audenried, and the reflection of a
large fire was plainly apparent to all who
saw it. 1t continued for nearly two hours,
and the breaker whistles could be heard
giving the signal of distress. Several par
ties from town drove over to ascertain the
location, but did not return until a late hour.
The fire was discovered to be the large store
building containing all the general offices of
Messrs. Z. B. Leisenring & Co., of Auden-
ried, in addition 10 an immense stock of
goods and the bed rooms OF clerks. The
entire structure, which was frame, and the
largest owned by any coal company in this
regioni was completely destroyed, burned
down tc the ground. There is no organiza-
ton there for protection from fire, and but
short supply of water, 50 that the prospect
for eXtinguishing fires in that village are
very poor, in fact hopeless. The fire Is sup
posed TO have originated from q defective
hue, as when discovered, it was in one of
the rooms on the second floor of the building.
The people turned out and worked like
beavers TO save the valuable books OF the
company, stock in the store and furniture,
and succeeded in saving great amount. The
most important books were saved, but very
little of the stock IN the store. The clerks,
who room in the building, lost heavily of
their personal effects. IPm. l.. Bayley, we
learn lost everything but the clothing ON his
back, his loss will probably reach $500. II.
c. Taylor, lost Of clothing aud Harry Reefs,
mining engineer, lost all Of his surveying
instruments The loss to the company IS
heavy as the building alone cost $40 COO,
and was only insured for s. 1000. The loss
TO Messrs. L. b. Ayres a Co., on stock in
store IS estimated at $4,000 insurance S.
900. 1t will be a serious loss all around aud
a great drawback ON their business. The
store goods which were saved were taken 10
Hosack Hall where the business will be con-
Quoted for the present, until the rebuilding
Of the property.
During the fire a number Of guns, which
were kept in the store, exploded, but done
no damage. A number Of thieves we're
promptly on hand and busily engaged ia
stealing goods ffom the store. Several were
arrested and locked up. Such people ought
~ be shot on the spot, any ulau who would
steal a. Gre will commit murder.

On Tuesday afternoon an arbitration was
held at the Broadway House, in which A.
dolph Sandhass and wife were plaintiffs,
and Thomas Koons, sheriff, defendant. The
facts are these F.; Sandhass gave a judgment
exemption note, which note was endorsed
by Lewis Armbruster; Sandhass was about
moving to Scranton, and, in order to save
himself, Mr. Armbruster had an execution
issued the goods were seized and, after the
sheriff had been Unidentified, were sold. An
action was forthwith brought against Mr..
koons. The plaintiff proved that the goods
belonged to Mrs. Sandhass, and an award
was given in favor of the plaintiff for $40
and costs. The case will probably be ap-
